"Sara is a gift. I've bought houses in the past, and none of the realtors were nearly as helpful. The day the offer was approved, Sara had the inspector in the house. I asked for some help finding a contractor and gave her a punch list of items. She was at the house walking him through the changes. We got a great deal. And we found our house the first day we went looking. She knew it was "the one" before we did. She helped us with our offer to include some things we didn't know we could ask for. Not to mention, she was so friendly and helpful. I met Sara as she was the neighbor to the house I was renting. We've been lucky enough to watch her (sweet and adorable) pets when she's out of town. She trusted us, and we trusted her. She's not just a great realtor, but a great neighbor who I'm sad to move away from. Thank you Sara!!!! We love our house already, and we haven't even moved in."

"Sara helped us find the perfect home. She was very knowledgeable of the areas we were interested and gave us honest feedback if it was not a good deal. She made the process very easy and would highly recommend her!"

"Sara Warner helped us both buy our house in 2019 and then sell it in 2023. She was fantastic both times and we walked away very happy. Being our first time selling, she did a great job walking us through getting house ready for pictures and prepping for our open house. We listed and got our first offers in a couple days and ended up closing for above asking in a slow market. We really can't say enough good things about our experience with her and the Compass team."

"Sara Warner is a terrific realtor and a wonderful human being. Not only did she successfully sell the house for cash on the first day, but she was totally involved throughout the process. She physically helped with tasks preparing the house. She answered the same questions multiple times. She was always available. She was a joy to work with. You would do well to choose Sara. "

"Sara worked very hard on that particular purchase under very strenuous circumstances. We had so little time to get a lot of information to compete and win the purchase. We won and then closed in a week from when she brought me the house. She did such a great job, we are using her for our next house about to hit the market."

★★★★★
"We had a great experience with Sara. She was on top of everything, was very responsive to questions and concerns throughout the home buying process, and helped us get our first home. We even referred her to a friend and she helped them get their first home, too! So, we're very happy with her and Compass and will recommend her to anyone we know who is searching for a home. "

"Sara Warner is *the best.* My husband and I thought we'd never be able to get a house in this market, but I'm typing this from our beautiful new home. Sara is friendly, funny, responsive, savvy, honest, and will WORK for you and your best interests through this process."

★★★★★
"This is the second home I've had the pleasure of working with Sara to find, and the experience is always amazing. She is knowledgeable, personable, transparent, and realistic, which I really appreciate. She knows the area well and is highly connected in the community, which definitely benefits this crazy market! Sara works to ensure that I'm getting exactly what out of my new home and is always available for my many, many questions. I genuinely appreciate working with Sara. My Texas experience wouldn't have been as amazing as it's been without her! "

- Audrey C.
★★★★★
"Sara Warner was so great to work with! I really felt like we had someone on our side in this tough market. She was determined to find not just any home but also the right home for us, and she succeeded! The house we bought was one I almost didn't even look at, but Sara knew us well enough to make sure we checked it out. We are so, so happy we did. And we are forever grateful to Sara for her hard work and advocacy. "
- Jackson
★★★★★
"I recommend Sara Warner and Compass very highly for your real estate needs. Sara has now helped me find not just one but two fantastic homes in the last five years! In both instances, I was ready to go on a much less appealing house, and Sara somehow found even better houses. She wouldn’t just settle for “good enough” even though we were ready to sign on the line. Both homes were in very desirable neighborhoods, and I was worried that we wouldn’t get these great deals, but I listened to her advice, and she worked her magic in the deal. I am a stickler for details, but she managed to find two very small errors on our last contract that would have cost us quite a bit of money. I didn’t even see those! I am so very grateful for her perseverance and for somehow knowing what our family needed even more than we did."
- Christie B.
★★★★★
"My husband and I knew that with the Austin housing market as competitive as it is, we needed to hire a Realtor who was committed to helping us. Sara Warner was that Realtor. She went above and beyond to find/show us homes that had just gone on the market, answered our many questions, and utilized her network for our benefit. In the end, she helped us close on a home that we are happy to call our own.
Sara really made our home buying experience great. We looked at several homes before we found ‘The One,’ but at every stage of our journey, Sara was patient and extremely knowledgeable about the details, which aided us in making the smartest choice for our goals.
You can tell she is honest, kind, thorough, and sincerely cares about each client. Her sense of humor is spot-on, too, when things get stressful! I could not recommend Sara more and think anyone would be missing out if they didn’t choose her to help them find their dream home in Austin."

★★★★★
"Five months ago, I was feeling rather hopeless, living in a house that had become unlivable. I bought the property 18 years prior as a fixer-upper but was never able to give it the required attention. I stayed because it was in a good location, and as a single mom, I never thought I would be able to rent or buy a home in Austin in 2020. I felt it was important to stay here until my children finish school. I reached out to Sara Warner to ask her what she thought I could get for my house as a tear-down. We met soon after, and Sara left me hopeful! We moved full steam ahead, and a month later, my house sold for much more than I ever imagined it would! A month after that, I closed on a beautiful home in Austin that Sara helped me locate. I sit today, still wondering how I got to this point when I was struggling to make ends meet, hoping that the bathroom floor didn’t cave in on us, just a short time ago. Sara is literally a lifesaver! She has been in this business for a long time and knows the Austin market well. Sara was with me every step of the way and was always available to answer any questions that I had. She is a powerhouse and has the best interest of her clients at heart. She loves her job, and it shows in everything she does. Besides that, she has a vibrant personality and is just so fun to be with! Sara is a true professional, and I will never use another Realtor. I highly recommend her!"

"Despite the restrictions of these virus dominated times, Sara Warner set to work. She was meticulous about finding properties that met all the points on my wish list. She was enthusiastic and professional and really knows her business, which is very reassuring when you're new in town. She has answered every question I've had and helped me beyond the realm of house buying. When we did the walkthrough before closing, she surprised me with a cake that was made to replicate the Pink Champagne cake at the Madonna Inn in San Luis Obispo, CA. She'd gone out of her way to find a baker who would do it. What a thoughtful thing to do! Sara is delightful, and I will recommend her to anyone I meet who is looking for a Realtor."

"We were blessed with our introduction to Sara Warner of Compass. My wife's remaining parent was well into that age, where she could no longer care for her home for many years. The lady and friend who used to live next door recommended Sara, and she was a delight from the very start. Since my wife and I live in Dallas, I had to drive to Austin every week to prepare the house for sale. Sara guided us every step of the way, provided prospective companies to help with that preparation, and, most importantly, provided a prospective buyer that liked the neighborhood and the house. We never had to go to market as the quality of the buyer she introduced breezed through the negotiation process and qualifying in a fashion that made EVERYONE happy. Honestly, for me, anyway, things were going so smoothly, I began to get nervous. Events like this are simply not designed to go so easily. Well, they did. Compass handled both sides of the realty transaction with another agent to represent the buyer. The title company they recommended was flawless, the buyer is happy, and my mother-in-law should have sufficient reserves for her remaining time. The person and company I have to thank for are Sara Warner and Compass. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!"

★★★★★
"This is our second time in 8 months, having Sara as our Realtor and we wouldn't go with anyone else. Sara has now helped us purchase a home in an established neighborhood, sold our original home, and helped us purchase a newly built home. Every time the process goes smoothly and always exceeds our expectations.
We never have to worry about whether or not we are doing the right thing or whether someone is trying to take advantage of us during the home buying or selling process. Her attention to detail is awesome, and she takes the stress out of the process by interfacing with all the stakeholders and asking the tough questions, so her clients don't have to. Sara also went above and beyond by frequently attending events by the home buyers/sellers.
She is easy to work with and will fight to get what you didn't even know you wanted or needed. "Hopefully," this is our "forever home," but if for some reason it isn't, we will definitely be using Sara again. Without question."

"I have worked with Sara Warner in purchasing two homes in Austin so far, and she is exceptional. She's prompt in responding, ready to hear, and work out our concerns, and she's gotten us great terms on both home purchases. She is a true veteran in the Austin market, and I won't be using anyone else for my future home buys!"

"I can't stress this enough, but Sara was an absolute rockstar. This was our family's first home, and Sara made what seemed like a very scary and daunting process feel easy. She kept us up to date every step of the way and made herself very available to answer any questions, no matter the time. When my wife and I decided to place an offer, Sara worked quickly to get us the paperwork, and I truly believe that Sara's work ethic is what got us the wonderful house we did. She is a skilled negotiator and always offered sage advice. Overall, the experience was great!"
- Michael P.
★★★★★
"I had a great experience with Sara, even though my house sale was much more challenging than I think either of us anticipated. She was such a great resource and always had several repair people lined up every time we discovered another issue (roof, drywall, basement flooding, you name it). All of these came up in the time the house was on the market). And she provides great advice when we were in multiple offer scenarios (twice) and fought for me when the original buyer backed out and tried to get out of paying the $1500 option fee. On top of all of that, I think the thing I appreciate most about Sara during this process is that she kept me calm and hopeful during my bouts of feeling like I would never actually sell the house. I would highly recommend her to my friends that need a real estate agent."
- Kim B
★★★★★
"Our experience with Sara Warner was fantastic. She is tremendously reliable, patient, and resourceful, and has a terrific instinct for the market. We needed to sell our East Austin house under a strict deadline after moving to California. These limiting factors made us anxious about making a successful sale (could we fix up the house in time, make it appealing to prospective buyers, and sell it quickly for a good price, all while living across the country)? Sara was with us every step of the way, assessing what improvements would get us the best return on investment, facilitating work with the contractors we chose, and always being very accessible. Her confidence and decisiveness reduced my anxiety a lot! We got significantly more than we expected for our house, and well under our deadline. I would recommend Sara in a heartbeat to anyone looking to buy or sell."
- Karen G.
★★★★★
"Our Realtor, Sara Warner, made our whole buying process so simple! She quickly learned what we were looking for, and selected homes to show us that were all wonderful. She really hit the nail on the head, and we were able to put in a successful bid for our ideal home on the first day of searching! She gave us great recommendations all along the way, from loan companies to locksmiths and even stepped in to help conduct our walkthrough when we couldn't be there at closing. Sara really was exceptional, and we're most grateful!"

"It's hard to believe it has almost been two years since my husband and I purchased our first home! Sara Warner was our agent, and I couldn't possibly tell you everything that made her wonderful. Our whole experience was unique, cared for, and simply perfect. When I called Sara, we had NO IDEA what becoming a homeowner even looked like. We were renters for years, and we were at a loss when family circumstances led to us needing to upgrade from a tiny one-bedroom apartment in Austin to a home that had to have at least three. From the start, Sara was kind, compassionate, helpful, and so so patient! She connected us with her lender and told us to start looking at houses. Once we received our pre-approval, we began looking and trying to decide what we needed, what we wanted, and what we could feasibly afford. We met Sara coming armed with five houses that looked like we could manage, one of which we had just seen the night before and was listed as coming soon. She greeted us with warmth and took the time to get to know us, what we were looking for, what we dreamed of, and then we came to the top five necessities. While my husband and I were musing about our must-haves (close to work, mature trees, no HOA), Sara says \oh what about this one? It is just now on the market,\" she turns her screed, and lo and behold it is the house we fell in love with the night before! She took us right then and there, and we walked the home, and I WAS IN LOVE! My husband and I spoke about it for less than 5 minutes and told her we want to put in an offer! She called it in, and then we waited. The next day happened to be my birthday, and at my party, she called to tell me our offer was accepted. Thirty days later, she handed us our keys, and we began to build our home, and now it's two years later, and we cannot imagine living anywhere else! Sara was truly a gem! She supported us through the entire process, had our interests at heart above making a sale, eased our minds, and truly took care of us. If you're looking to buy a new home, we can recommend no one else! Stop right here and give a call to Compass and ask for Sara Warner! "

★★★★★
"Sara Warner was excellent to work with! I was a first time home owner, so as I'm sure you can guess, I was full of questions. Not only did Sara answer all my questions during the process, but she also gave me multiple options and explanations for everything involved. I always knew no matter what time of day, I could reach out and chat with her. We had some complications due to the government shut down, but she kept me calm while promising it all would be worth it. Which it is. I've been in my new home two months now and could not be any happier! I'm so thankful I had her expertise and wisdom during this process!"

★★★★★
"Sara Warner guided us through buying our first home. We have no regrets. She's a tamer of craziness, a skilled negotiator and an expert in all things home buying. We're forever grateful for her shielding us from as much of the stress of the closing process as possible. We'd do it all over again with Sara and Compass"
- Jennifer O.
★★★★★
"This is the second time that Sara has been our Realtor and she always comes through for us. Both times, we were on a tight deadline, both times she came through for us ahead of schedule, and both times we didn't have to stress over any of the processes. Sara is more than a Realtor and is very personable. Our experiences with Sara have been so great that when we recently closed on selling our home, we asked Sara to please move to Dallas to sell us another house (we weren't kidding). Sara is always very responsive, tells it like it is, and lays down a plan for success while dumbing it down for people who don't buy and sell homes every day. Sara sold our house for over asking price which is great, but what is better is that she set us up for success. We knew exactly what we needed to do to attract buyers and thanks to her plan, and we had our first offer within a few hours of listing! Furthermore, she hooked us up with a Realtor in Dallas, who was equally amazing!"

"My wife and I initially thought we only wanted to rent a place and worked with Sara Warner to view some properties. Sara was amazing, and she met with us over a weekend due to my having a difficult schedule, and managed to find a few places for us to view. We started quickly getting the impression it might be much better for us to buy given our circumstances. As we had never purchased a home before, we were a bit hesitant as all previous attempts to even begin the home-buying process had seemed daunting, but we informed Sara anyway. She made the entire process easy. We managed to get pre-approved in days, and we closed on a perfect starter home within a month. She was readily available to answer questions and walk us through the entire process. Overall, she was fantastic, and I would highly recommend her to anyone who asked.

★★★★★
"Sara Warner was my Realtor, and she is fantastic. The home I inherited had several offers in the first week and was sold above the asking price in a month of listing. Since I inherited the house, I had no current information on the home. Sara and her team researched and provided all the documentation needed for the sale of the home. Sara was available for all questions I had and walked me through the process of what I had to do per regulations and guidelines for the sale of the home. Sara effectively negotiated all the terms that were important to me. I highly recommend Sara and her team. I will definitely use Sara as my Realtor in the future sales and purchases."

"Sara Warner was our angel Realtor, and I would give her ten stars if I could! We used her for the sale of our property in Austin; which was a seamless, efficient, professional and simple process and the subsequent purchase of our new dream home, which required the expertise and skill of a seasoned Realtor! We feel so lucky that she was our Realtor, and we would not have our dream home if not for Sara! Our home search and purchase was complicated because we searched and ultimately purchased while living abroad. This was only possible because of the time that Sara took to get to know us and our needs carefully, with endless patience and involvement, while we looked at different neighborhoods and got clear on such a huge decision for our family. Never once did we feel anything but patience and professionalism from her. This is clearly more than a business for her, Sara is a relationship-driven person, while also having the years of experience and expertise in the Austin market and an unparalleled level of professionalism that was the perfect trifecta for our home purchasing needs. While the sale and purchase took place in 2018, Sara spent years helping us identify our needs and waited with us for the perfect timing and house. Sara single-handedly found our dream house for us before it ever went on the crazy Austin market! She went so far above and beyond and provided excellent customer service in every step of the process. From finding the house before it ever went on the market, to help us set up multiple inspections, to the loan process, establishing power of attorney for our out-of-the-country closing needs and communicating clearly and professionally with all parties involved in the transactions. Sara is not the first Realtor that we have used to buy a home, but she is now the ONLY Realtor we will ever use. Highly recommend!"

"I had an amazing time with Sara Warner as my Realtor! This was my first time buying a house, and I was super intimidated by the thought of the whole process. Sara came through with her ultra helpful, bubbly attitude and relieved all my stress! She connected me with THE BEST mortgage broker and helped me to choose neighborhoods that were not only within my budget but perfect for my family and pups. I was able to close on my house two weeks early, and the process couldn't have gone any smoother. Although I am excited to live in my new home, I can't wait to start house hunting again in a few (many) years with Sara! Highly recommend!"
- Monique P.
★★★★★
"We had a fantastic experience with Sara Warner! Shopping from out of state, Sara helped us narrow our home search to a few key areas that would work well for our lifestyle and the vibe we were looking for. She then hand-picked from the many listings to a few key houses we should see in person. After one day of house hunting, we put in an offer on a home we loved. Sara helped us with some tough negotiations to get the home for below asking in a multiple offer situation. Due to an issue with my HR department, we required an extension to close the loan, but the seller was unwilling to budge. Undeterred, Sara worked her magic and convinced him to keep working with us. She eventually managed to secure us our new home! She could have stopped there, but Sara went above and beyond by offering to take in packages and mail and watch the pipes in the unseasonably cold weather for a month while we packed up our home and made the multi-day trip to our new home in our new state."

"Thank you Sara for selling our lot on the island. You were the only Realtor out of the three that had listed our lot that got any action at all and then you sold our lot for more money than we listed it at, plus in less than 3 months after we listed it with you. Joan and I are very thankful to have had you as our Realtor."
- John and Joan C.
★★★★★
"Our move from GA to TX had an added complication of being a company-sponsored relocation. Sara Warner took that in stride as part of her excellent service. Her patience with us and her expertise as a Realtor was appreciated more than we will ever be able to express. Sara narrowed down our search criteria and then showed us more houses than we ever expected. Her lovely, bubbly personality certainly made the arduous search for a home much easier and MUCH more fun! She made herself available at every turn and kept us up to date with what was happening both in TX and with our GA sale. We trust Sara so much that we will be recommending her to anyone we know who will be moving to TX, including my parents. It was a true pleasure working with Sara and Compass, and we thank them for their help with our new home."

"We are very grateful to our agent, Sara Warner, for all the work, support, and expert advice she provided in helping us sell our home in South Austin and find a new one in Northwest Hills over the last year. Sara was tenacious in representing our interests, and always quickly followed up with real estate agents that showed our home. This feedback, and Sara's interpretation of the received comments, helped us to accentuate aspects that were important to prospective buyers, allowing us to sell our old home at a price that enabled us to purchase the wonderful home we're in now. In just one example, Sara encouraged us to convert a study in our previous home to a bedroom, turning a 2/2 into a 3/2, which we believe was critical to obtaining a price we wanted. Sara is extremely hardworking and patient. She treated the sale of our home and purchase of our new one with a level of focus that would have been impressive had we been her only clients! We had very specific requirements in selling and (particularly) in buying that we suspect few clients have (in other words, we were extremely high maintenance), and Sara always listened and never lost patience with our particular needs. When her views differed from what we believed we wanted she would make the case for her perspective clearly; many times we were convinced by Sara's arguments, and when we weren't, she would respectfully enact our wishes. Finally, on top of her very strong work ethic and detailed knowledge of the Austin market, Sara is extremely personable and fun to be around. We were lucky to have her represent us in this very difficult but ultimately very rewarding process."
- Lisa H.
★★★★★
"Sara searched for houses that fit what I was looking for, but I decided that Austin prices were a little too steep for me, so I decided to venture out to neighboring towns. That's when I realized that Sara went above and beyond to help me find a home. She made it a point and priority to help me find the house of my dreams. She always kept in contact when I had questions and soon after that earned my trust. Sara has done so much for me, and because of that I now call her a friend. I would recommend her to anyone I know. I thank Sara for everything she has done for me."
- Svetlana K.
★★★★★
"Sara has proven herself to be knowledgeable and communicative throughout our house hunting process and has been very supportive as we worked through some major issues with our chosen property; issues that could have easily prevented us from moving forward to close. The top notch inspector she recommended discovered the issues. We appreciated her positive, friendly demeanor during the entire process, but especially during the \issue resolution\" phase. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and will definitely engage her if we need a Realtor again. ."
- Tim G.

"Sara Warner did a very good job with our condo in Hyde Park. She was quick to respond to our requests, listed our condo very quickly, was enthusiastic about the sale, and did what it took. Thanks to all the support from Austin Realty the sale was done. From the first call to the check in the bank, in 3 weeks; we could not have been happier!"
- Vince L.

★★★★★
"Our experience with Realtors did not begin well. We put our house on the market during the prime season for home sales. Our Realtor did not do what it took to sell our home and it sat unsold for 3 months. We had to relocate out of state and needed results. We decided to relist and signed on with Sara. She began on Day One to gather all of the sales data from the area to come up with a strong marketing plan. She went immediately to the house and started to personally tidy up around the now vacant property to make it look more presentable, even bringing over a couple of small pieces of her own furniture to present one space that was hard to understand without furniture. She created a beautiful listing complete with professional photographs (rather than snapshots) which showed our home in the best possible light. When complex legal questions came up, she went to her legal department and handled it without batting an eye. There was never any doubt which side of the law we were on. She kept in constant contact with us with virtually daily updates and worked with other Realtors to make the deal happen. Needless to say, she sold our home fast! You can take it from us, we have had experiences with OK realtors, bad realtors, and finally with Sara a really great Realtor... There is a difference! We would not hesitate for a millisecond to recommend Sara Warner, we think of her not only as the Realtor who sold our home fast but as a friend."

"SARA WARNER. Remember that name. Put it on your cell phone. If you ever have a real estate matter, call her first. Not only is she the best, but she takes excellence to new heights. I was the executor of an estate charged with selling a house for the benefit of numerous heirs. There were many complicating aspects involved in the situation which would cause other real estate agents to back away. Sara took the challenge. She addressed the numerous obstacles that arose in a strong, decisive, straightforward, ethical, and timely manner while protecting our interests and treating all parties fairly. The secret to her success is her willingness to put in long hours to achieve the best outcome for her clients. I am an eyewitness to her dedication. Her hard work resulted in a successful sale that exceeded our best expectations. My view is echoed by the beneficiaries of the estate. Sara is the epitome of an outstanding realtor."

"Sara Warner was absolutely the best thing that happened to us regarding my brothers trust. In an unfortunate situation with his death, she helped us through the process in the best possible way. With me living in Michigan and his house in Austin, it was not an easy deal. Sara was with us every step of the way. Actually, ahead of us by letting us know when the grass needed to be cut, when the man sleeping in his yard needed to find another place to sleep, or when the auctioneer we chose left big holes in the walls. She worked for every penny she made on this deal and I am so grateful we chose her as our Realtor. And even though it wasn't an easy deal, she was so pleasant all the way through. Sara knows how we feel about her but I also wanted to give my recommendation for others to see. I'd be more than happy to share my experience with others if they want a personal recommendation. Thank you Sara!"

"We are huge fans of Sara. When we moved to Austin last year, Sara drove us all over South Austin to find a home for us to lease. So when we got ready to buy a house we knew she was the realtor for us. We even recommended her to our friends. She helped them find the perfect condo. She is a treasure and we give her the highest rating possible."

"Sara Warner is insightful, resourceful and trustworthy. Sara went above and beyond previewing homes for us and sending us video clips with entertaining commentary since we were out of state.

We highly recommend Sara... she is a caring best friend and savvy realtor all rolled up in one!"

Immediately following our that conversation, she summarized all of our needs and wants perfectly in an email with links to some potential neighborhoods.

"Sara Warner did a fantastic job helping us find a home. She listened to us, made good suggestions, and was there to put in those last-minute offers.

The Austin area can be a tough market to buy into-I genuinely don't know what we would have done without Sara."

"Sara Warner for me is not just a real estate agent; She is a friend who is always there to lend a helping hand, she patiently let me understand things I didn't understand, she can be trusted as what I told to my friends. When it came to selling of the house, I got the price unexpectedly higher, thanks to Sara Warner of Compass. I refer Sara to my friends, telling them they can call Sara in case they decided to sell their property. I am 100% satisfied with the services of Compass through Sara Warner of their services."

★★★★★
"Sara stood out from other Realtors from the get-go. Not to disparage the profession, but I felt like I was dealing with a person instead of a robot. As a first-time homebuyer, my needs were nuanced and my means were meager, but she patiently helped me hunt for a home, and stepped through every step of the process. Home-buying in Austin is no playtime - it's a brutal bloodsport, but you'll do well to have Sara on your side."

"Sara Warner was great! My boyfriend and I enjoyed working with her. She was friendly and fun, knowledgeable of the areas that we were looking in and patient with us while we were looking for our home. We recommended her to my brother, who is now working with her, and have a few more family members moving to the area so we will pass them over to Sara.

"My wife and I were new to the Austin area and were prepared for a long, drawn-out search for the home we always wanted. Enter Sara Warner. Her expertise and ability to distill what was most important to us turned the process into a quick moving and incredibly satisfying journey. Sara was there for us throughout as an advocate, voice of reason and expert in her field. We were very lucky to have her on our side and couldn't suggest her services more."

"We came across Sara Warner through Compass and although we were looking from out of state, she was quite persistent to follow up with us regularly to see if we needed help. Once we came to town to look at homes, she was right there and ready to help. Very personable, easy to get along with, fun to search for a home with (which can be downright stressful) and she just \got\" us. Honest and genuine are two of the best words I could use to describe her, and that makes working with her easy. I would definitely recommend using her for your realtor because what you see is what you get and that means a lot these days. "

"Sara Warner is the best real state agent we ever had. We sold our house in one day! She guided us through the process of selling and buying a house with knowledge and total dedication. We really felt the difference from other real state agents we have used in the past. Sara was able to focus on the important things we wanted and needed, and helped us to find our dream home. Sara treat us like family! We totally recommend her to anyone that wants results and great service."

"Sara Warner came into our lives as our Realtor Agent at very stressful time in our lives - when we were looking desperately to find and to buy a property with several objectives and important goals - all this within a very short timeframe, hopefully without sacrificing too much on the needs. We cannot lift Sara high enough to the skies - and the 5 stars rating is not enough for her. Her time was always ours - never mattered what time of day or even evening it was. Sara's understanding, focus and professionalism, experience and knowledge and hard work - brought us along the entire process towards a closing and result that exceeded all and more of what we could even have hoped for. Love the property. Sara you set the standard so high that we might never be pleased with anyone else. You are a Gem!"

"We looked at houses for a year, and then lucked into meeting Sara. After only a couple of weeks, we bought our dream home. She understood our purpose and delivered the whole package perfectly. Golden."

"After visiting Belize many times, my wife and I decided that we wanted to buy some property there to eventually live on. We had a few choices on real estate agents but ultimately we went with Sara because we felt very comfortable with her and felt that she understood our specific wants and needs. Sara showed us several properties that fit our criteria, including some we hadn't originally thought of but were great options. She was very professional and patient with us as we whittled down our options and worked toward making a decision. She stayed in contact with us even after we had left the island but without making us feel pressured. When we finally decided what we wanted, Sara and her team went above and beyond to make sure that everything went very smoothly. It is this type of attention and professionalism that made us feel very comfortable and confident in choosing her. Even over a year after the initial sale, Sara has been willing and happy to stay in contact with us and has helped us to find someone to maintain the lot until we are ready to build. She also kept us up to date on any issues with our property. We can't recommend Sara and her staff highly enough."

"In August 2012 we were vacationing in Belize and absolutely fell in love with everything about it. The people and the island are fantastic! We were fortunate to be introduced to Sara, a local Real Estate Agent. She knew so much about what was available and was willing to show us properties, even those that weren't her listings. We didn't know if we wanted a lot or a home that was already built. Heck, we didn't even know if we would even be buying something. Sara was very patient and showed us so many options. She spent time with us on two different days, taking us to numerous properties and homes around both the North and South Islands. The morning we were leaving we wanted to look at one of the properties again. We had very little time but she dropped everything and took us to tour the inside of a home right before we had to go to the airport. We emailed back and forth throughout our trip back to the States and eventually made an offer on the home. It is now September 2012 and we are very excited to be new homeowners in Belize! Sara made the entire process very smooth and easy! Sara was always professional and determined to see our dream come true and worked through any obstacle to see that it did. We had total confidence in her ability to close the deal and she did! Thank you Sara!"

"My home selling experience with Sara Warner exceeded my wildest expectations. I had owned a house in North Austin since the late 1970's and the time had come to finally sell it. I went to various Austin Realtor websites and selected three realtors to meet with at the property. All came with materials to demonstrate what they felt my house was worth. One did not think it was worth that much. The other two were more optimistic. Sara was one of those. I chose to list with her because she seemed to know her business and showed a lot of confidence in her ability to get me the maximum price for my home. She even had a couple of people in mind that might be looking for a home like mine to renovate. Before even officially signing with her, she called to ask if she could show the house later that same afternoon. I said ok and had an offer from these same buyers, which I accepted, the very next day. I could not believe the house sold before even being listed! During the time between contract signing and closing there were a number of issues that came up regarding the home due to its age. In every case, Sara suggested reasonable compromises, which were immediately accepted by both parties. This service after the sale was excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend Sara Warner. I have bought and sold a number of houses and this was the smoothest deal I have ever experienced."

"I would say that you cannot do better than to put your real estate needs in the hands of Sara Warner. She went above and beyond our expectations to help us find the perfect home for all of our needs. She took all of our plans in mind when showing us homes and got to know us well enough to understand those plans. We absolutely felt as if we were being treated like people rather than just another real estate conquest. Sara seemed to be genuinely be concerned with our happiness and did not waste any of our time showing us homes out of our budget. We were able to find a home within our tight schedule and she negotiated a dynamite price that was well below market value! During the closing she worked with the old homeowners to make repairs and renovations before my family moved in. Sara also set us up with a fantastic Loan Consultant, great advice on our own home plans, moving company contacts and calls with the old owners long after the final sale was done. Sara has been consistently available to us whenever we have called and we will absolutely be working with her again when it is time to sell our first home and buy our next."

"Sara's professionalism, knowledge of realty and great personality made the transition from selling/moving out of one home to locating/buying/moving into a new home almost effortless. She stayed on top of every detail throughout the process and, even after moving into my new home, Sara was able to resolve issues that I could not have taken care of on my own."

"Thank you Sara for all your attention and help with the purchase of our home! You were the 3rd agent I talked to and the only one who wanted to take the time with us since our purchase was a few months down the road and we weren't even in the state yet. You were so patient with us during our search and it paid off. This is the perfect house and location. And as a bonus I got a great friend out of the deal in you. Thanks again!"

"I came to Belize for the first time in 2009 and immediately fell in love with the island and the lifestyle. Not long after I was there I also fell in love with a beautiful Belizean woman by the name of Dawn. On my next trip to see my new love I started looking at lots with Sara. I have to say, she was very patient with me since I didn't know what I really wanted. This was 2010. Sara took Dawn and I around one day on a golf cart and we looked at least 10 places. And even though I liked many, I still didn't see \the one.\" So I left the island and my love back to the States sad and lonely. Sara contacted me about 2 months later with some news of a few lots that came up for sale. She sent me photos and I discussed with Dawn about which lot to choose. I bought one of the lots in late 2011, sight unseen and Sara helped me through the whole deal. I visited Dawn and my new home a couple of months later and was really happy with our lot. My future is in Belize and now I get to start building it."

"Sara was very warm and not only showed us so many houses, but introduced us to the geographic area as well. We didn't just buy a house; we bought the Texas that Sara sold us! She kept us updated daily (we were in New York) and suggested many activities that we could take advantage of while we were here. She was very helpful; letting us know where to go eat and have some fun. Professionally, she quickly got to know what we really wanted in a home. She had great tips and advice as we viewed several houses; she put her finger right on important observations that saved us time, money and future problems. I'm happy we met Sara and consider her a friend!"

"Sara is an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very beginning, we felt that Sara was incredibly in-tune with the real estate market and very capable of meeting our every need. Sara quickly put us at ease with her ability to scour the marketplace and find listings that matched criteria that we communicated, as well as listings that helped us as home owners achieve our dreams and goals of investing in our home and gaining instant equity. Sara brings much needed creativity to find and made incredible deals happen. After listing and selling our house for top dollar, Sara guided us through the process of finding a house and evaluating it based on our desires of sound investment all while keeping us calm through face-to-face negotiations with the owner at a purchase table. In the heat of the moment, she was in our corner making sure we came out on top. Thank you for everything Sara!"

As a Realtor since 2005, she’s shown property in an ice blue vintage Jaguar in beautiful Austin and on a golf cart in her bare feet on a paradise island in Belize, where she ended up in the Number 1 position on a list of the top-selling agents in all of Central America and the Caribbean. She claims she accomplished this feat by being the only relatively sober person within 50 miles, but we know better. Sara cares about her clients and works tirelessly in their best interests.
Sara holds a Bachelor of Science from Texas A&M University. Prior to her career in real estate, she spent a decade working with abused and neglected children. The negotiation and investigative skills she honed during her time in social work would later prove invaluable in real estate. With the enthusiasm of one no longer dealing with life and death crises on a daily basis, Sara earned Rookie of the Year with her Austin broker not once but twice.
When she’s not practicing her magical property matchmaking, you can find her spending time with her sweet son Egan (okay, driving him around), working out at the gym, walking her dog Teddy while listening to novels or just laughing with her wonderful friends.
