"We are very, very happy to have met Rich while looking for a house. The whole process of buying was kind of a mystery for us, as we have never done that in the US before, and he could answer every possible question you can imagine, including searching, comparing, layouts, construction detail, upgrades, house values, locations, negotiating and legal procedures. He was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and patient every single day from early morning to late night. Thank you very much Rich, for all your help and good luck to you in all your business endeavors! " - Igor

"Having Richard help us with the sale of our house and the purchase of a new home, was the best choice we made during the whole process. He worked harder than any previous realtor I’ve ever worked with, and as long as he’s doing this job, he will be our realtor. Really a great experience." - Ben C.

★★★★★
"Rich is spectacular at what he does. Very proactive when it comes to getting things done and responsive when you have any questions, big or small. As a first-time homebuyer, the process can be overwhelming at times but Rich was there for us every step of the way. Super knowledgeable and easy to deal with, he went above and beyond any other realtor we came in contact with. I would highly recommend using him if you are looking to get into a new home or listing your current residence on the market." - Jamon D.

"Rich went above and beyond for us during the home buying process. As this was our first home ever, there was so much we didn’t know and he put us at ease with his knowledgeable and proactive manner. Rich found us our dream home, negotiated us a great deal and has helped us through every step of the process. We truly felt so taken care of every step of the way and can’t recommend him enough!" - Ellie K.

★★★★★
"I can not say enough good things about my experience with Rich as my Realtor. He ALWAYS had my best interest at heart, and was willing to shoot everything to me straight and honest. This was a better experience than I could have ever asked for when buying a home. Not only did Rich find homes that met my criteria for when I initially started my search, he helped explain the ins and outs of home buying to help educate and guide me. Additionally, Rich went above and beyond while I was out of town to go and see homes at last minute notice that I was interested in. Went as far as recording videos with in-depth commentary so that I could make a decision on the home. Whether you’re a first time buyer or a veteran in the realm of purchasing a home… Rich is the way to go!" - Ryan B.

★★★★★

"Rich Richani was a pleasure to work with! He’s very knowledgeable of the market and knows what it takes to achieve the best price possible and has very creative marketing skills to get the most exposure, including an awesome video he produced. We felt we were in good hands from the first with met with us. He listened to our needs and offered excellent solutions. He has a great team, that renovated our old house to get it ready to sell. He’s very professional and has a very caring attitude and advised us through the whole process. We couldn’t be happier with the results. He even found us a great house that was perfect for us and went above and beyond in helping us with our move. The friends he introduced us to was a Godsend, as we’re up in age and needed all the help we could get. Truly I can’t say enough good things about our experience!" - Douglas

★★★★★
"Richard Richani and his support team were all very helpful and professional. Rich took the time to get to know us and our housing needs, then he helped us find the right place for us. Due to our age and my partial disabilities, we had a lot of very specific requirements for a new home. He steered us away from a number of houses when he recognized problems with them that would be hard on us, he encouraged us to keep waiting, and sure enough, the right house for us eventually appeared. Then he advised us on how to get the edge in the bidding war, and we won it! We are extremely happy with Rich's work, and we plan to use him to sell our current home as soon as we've moved to the new one. I highly recommend Rich!" - Brenda S.

★★★★★
"Rich Richani is a very helpful and genuine agent who has his client's best interest at heart in everything he does. Always very responsive to questions and concerns we had through the process. Second step of our journey together is selling our old house which I know he’ll be just as great with guiding us through the process. He’s also a fellow brother in arms, thank you for your service, Rich." - Doug

★★★★★

★★★★★
"When I stepped into the Austin/Round Rock market, I had a lot of doubt that we would find the right home. I used to work with Rich Richani, our realtor with Austin Realty, at the fire station. Knowing his work ethic, along with multiple referrals, I decided to hire him and could not be happier. He is exceptional at his craft and truly knows the ins and outs of the business. We were clearly not the most competitive buyers in this market but, Rich managed to help us find a home and negotiate the best deal possible, which surpassed our expectations. As of yesterday, we are now homeowners. Thanks, Rich Richani!" - Anonymous

He always went above and beyond in a tremendous way and was always available when I had questions or concerns. His business relationships with those involved in the purchase or sale of a home, such as lenders, title company, etc., are solid and made me feel confident that he was always concerned with what was best for my situation.

My family was able to find our dream home, and we are forever grateful to Rich for his help." - Laura + Sam R.

★★★★★
"Richard got the job done and quickly! We spent six months dealing with an agent that didn’t do anything. We are “old school” people, and when we met Richard, we felt immediate confidence and knew we could trust him to sell our home quickly and without any disappointment. Richard is hard-working, knows the market, and is a straightforward and honest professional. Richard being a Veteran and a First Responder, gave us the confidence we needed to know he would perform at the highest level and, most importantly, his determination to get the job done professionally and respectfully. Richard was proactive in marketing the house, always returned our phone calls, and was on top of it the whole time. We highly recommend Richard as your Real Estate Agent!" - Della + Ismael N.

Overall I would recommend Richani to any first-time home buyer, or if you're looking for any property, he is definitely the man to contact!" - Jonathan P.

★★★★★
"Before I contracted with Rich, I was overwhelmed with the amount of mediocre Realtors that reminded me of ambulance chasers. I’m more than grateful for trusting Rich to guide me through such an overwhelming transition. Rich assisted with prepping our home and placing it on the market.

If you want someone you can trust, Richard is your guy!" - Mike S.

★★★★★
"Last year, I was looking for a home in a competitive market in the heart of Austin. Richard broke down the basics of homebuying for me and was very patient and resourceful. He pulled strings for me when he could and devoted endless hours traveling and preparing paperwork. But it was his honesty and shrewd judgment that came through helping me to beat out 18 other buyers. It was nothing short of amazing, and the experience was effortless. If you're currently thinking about buying or selling your home, hit him up. As busy as he is, Rich still takes time for everyone who needs help." - Alexander S.
