"We met Tanya in 2015, and shortly after beginning our house search, our life plans changed, so we did not move to Texas that year. After 7 patient years of waiting and keeping in touch with relevant real estate information and updates, birthday and holiday cards, and frank availability to help, Tanya helped settle one big part of our lives, buying a house that fits our current needs. We know that this is not our forever home, and I am grateful that since 2015 Tanya has coached, listened, and helped us to achieve buying a house without leaving us alone in our decision but giving us space and support to decide what made sense to our personal, professional and financial plans. She genuinely cares about her clients' personal plans, not just the bottom line. Something for which she also stands out for is her strategic and on-point communication when negotiating. Tanya keeps her calm and is always pleasantly available. Even when urgency and speed is a real estate constant, she transmits that energy to settle and think things through to make the best decision because she has knowledge and experience that quiet anxieties and uncertainties. She is also honest about the unavoidable unknowns. Lastly, I would like to point out that I know she will sell my house and help me buy a new one. " - Patricia N.

"Tanya Alvarez and Jessica Price were the perfect team for us, first-time home buyers. My partner and I were super happy with them, and we would not have been able to find our dream home without their help. We didn't really know what we wanted, but Tanya helped us narrow our search and was super honest. I didn't feel like she was in this for money but she was in it to genuinely help people find their dream home. They are still helping us even after we closed on the house. We couldn't have asked for a better team! We really appreciate them and will be working with them again if we ever decide to sell and move." - Christiane K.

"We had a wonderful experience with Tanya! She was very communicative from the start and really took an interest in our vision and priorities for our home. She also has a great process that helped us narrow down exactly what we were looking for in terms of size, location, features, and layout. Once we had figured that out, it took us less than a month to find our house! Tanya and Jessica always responded quickly to schedule showings for us. Once we got to the stage of making offers, Tanya and Jessica were so helpful with guidance on how to approach the process, and again, were quick to respond to any questions we had. The process was so easy and not stressful at all thanks to their help. We love our new home and would highly recommend Tanya for anyone looking in the Austin area! " - Meera K.

"Tanya has been our realtor since 2015, when she helped us buy our first home. At that time, we had a toddler and did not have a lot of money. We didn't think we could afford to buy a house, but she educated us and set us on a path to building wealth for our family. Tanya has a way of helping clients gain clarity on their wants, needs, and desires. She has supported us through the purchase of two homes and two investment properties. Buying and selling houses is emotional and stressful. Each time she has helped keep us grounded and on the path to success in finding the right fit for us. Through negotiations, she helps us keep an eye on the big picture and get to closing. We love her and will continue to lean on her for our continued growth in real estate." - Alexandra M.

★★★★★
"Tanya was really fantastic to work with. Her experience in the industry shines through as she has answers to all my questions or could direct me to where to look for answers. She also has a really helpful and calming demeanor, which I can see is one of the reasons she is so successful. Tanya was by my side every step of the way, and yes, I would definitely refer her to family & friends." - Leah A.

"Tanya started helping us back at Hindsite 20/20 and got us our original home in 2018. She was amazing on both the buying and selling fronts. Super communicative and very detail-oriented. Every timeline she committed to, she exceeded on and made sure we got a good deal both buying and selling. She helped us get our homestead exemption filed and recommended great contractors to get work done on our home. She was always there for us if we had questions regarding homeownership which was incredibly helpful being first-time home buyers. When we left Austin in June, she helped connect us with a realtor in MN, spending valuable time talking to realtors to get a good feel for someone that would do a good job for us up North. I can't recommend her enough, and I've sent a friend to her that was looking for a house in the Austin area, and she ended up helping all 3 find the perfect place. " - Thomas R.

★★★★★
"You are fortunate to have Tanya Alvarez working for you. She is everything one could want in a realtor and friend. She has an amazing wealth of experience to draw from to solve unanticipated situations. She reduced the stress of our 80-year-old worries. She came to our apartment several times and drove us to close at the title company. We highly recommend Tanya and would use her as a realtor again." - Sharon + Claud B.

★★★★★
"Tanya has been very helpful throughout the whole process. She answered all of our questions and made sure things went smoothly." - Gilbert M.

★★★★★
"We've known Tanya for many years, and she repeatedly delivers with excellence and beyond our expectations. Tanya always takes care of us before, during, and after the purchase process. I didn't expect less this time, she is wonderful! We also have recommended Tanya to friends and family before. They have told us about their great experience with her as well. We will continue recommending her with confidence because we know our friends/family won't be disappointed. " - Andreina M.

"So, at first blush, you might think this review biased as Tanya is both my sister-in-law and my Realtor. But, after having gone through a house hunt and purchase without her in the last few weeks, I can honestly say she’s one of the absolute best. In fact, as my husband and I furiously searched for a new home, in a new state, with multiple Realtors to guide us, we regularly found ourselves repeating Tanya’s sage advice. The realtors we’ve worked with here are great and are clearly experts in their locales, but none has come close to teaching us half as much about the overall process. Tanya is an equal parts educator and Realtor, and I’m sure that played an important role in us securing the amazing home on which we are now under contract. We both feel like smarter buyers because of all the knowledge she has shared so freely over the course of buying and selling two homes with her in Austin. We are so grateful to have had her guidance all these years, and we miss her dearly!" - Tria T.

★★★★★
"My husband and I worked with Tanya Alvarez (and Jessica Price, her assistant who was also wonderful), and she is amazing! She is friendly and has extensive knowledge of the Austin area and surrounding areas, which made my husband, and I feel very comfortable, even during this crazy market. She made sure we knew what we were getting into and gave us insight into the home searching and buying process that we needed, as we were first-time buyers. Tanya always made sure to be available whenever we needed her, and we could not appreciate her enough. We will definitely be reaching out again if we are in the market for another home!" - Alina G.

★★★★★
"I can not tell you how amazing Tanya Alvarez is with Compass. From beginning to post-sale, Tanya was and still is beyond incredible with us. I knew we were in good hands after the intake process. Tanya sat us down and got to know us for 90 minutes to best understand what we need. This is simply not common nowadays. I can’t tell you how many other Realtors just set up an MLS search for us and focused on quantity rather than quality. That’s not Tanya. She got to know us and our needs, gave us insights into the market, told us what we needed to do to try to win a house in Austin in 2021, was our true advocate all the way, acted with honesty/integrity, and just flat out got stuff done. I will refer Tanya to my family, closest friends, and complete strangers in the future. She sets the true bar for a real estate agent (not a facilitator, but a true consultant/trusted friend). Thank you so much, Tanya!" - Rick + Jackie

★★★★★
"We had and continue to have a great working relationship with Tanya Alvarez. Tanya and her Assistant Jessica are quick to respond to our questions and needs. They are personable, kind, knowledgeable, and strategic professionals. I would greatly recommend getting Tanya on your side when buying or selling here in the Austin area!" - Emily A.

★★★★★
"We love working with Tanya. She's very helpful and willing to work with our crazy schedules. Her knowledge, experience, and connections were and are invaluable to us, and there's no one else we would trust more to help us navigate buying or selling a home." - Alexa F.

★★★★★
"Tanya is a good partner and friend. That’s why I followed her into Compass. I continue to rely on her to always have my best interest in mind. " - Brad Z.

★★★★★
"Tanya helped me buy my first home, and from day one, she really did an excellent job of supplying me with the level of support and information I needed to feel comfortable and informed about my purchasing decisions. She helped me end to end and continues to support me in my investment today, keeping me informed of opportunities to improve my home's value. I highly recommend her services and would absolutely hire her again in the future for myself. Thanks, Tanya!" - Angela J.

★★★★★
"I can't think of a more thorough and insightful real estate agent than Tanya. She is receptive to her clients and does high-quality work of analyzing the local market. She is hardworking and devoted to making sure her clients' desires are met. Tanya far exceeded my expectations of what I thought a real estate agent could do." - Donna S.

★★★★★
"Even after the purchase, Tanya provides so much for her clients. She hosts client appreciation parties, sends a newsletter with great advice, and provides training on property taxes and home care. And when my home sustained damage in a freak accident, Tanya was my first call. She sprung into action and immediately connected me with contractors and insurance. She truly is the "godparent" of my lovely home. Tanya is by far the best Realtor I could imagine! Anyone looking for a home in Austin or the surrounding areas should do themselves a favor and give her a call." - Aaron H.

★★★★★
"If you are looking for a home in Austin, I strongly recommend Tanya. Her excellent market knowledge and intuition (along with her commitment to building long-lasting relationships) make her exceptional at what she does. My fiancé and I had the pleasure of buying our first home with Tanya this past summer. We had ambitious goals during an extremely competitive time in the Austin market, and Tanya and her team delivered to help us purchase a home that exceeded our expectations. Her commitment to us continues today with regular check-ins and helpful advice for maintenance and remodeling. Tanya is top-notch. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to do well in the Austin market." - Marina I.

★★★★★
"I hired Tanya to help me buy my first house, and I can say without a doubt she will be my Realtor as long as I'm in Austin! Tanya really helped me realize what was most important to me and walked me through the whole process with great care. Her extensive knowledge of all the areas of Austin was impressive (and I'm a native Austinite), and she worked with my budget (never making me feel less important because I'm not a millionaire) to help me get the best possible home for me! The sale was only the beginning of our relationship- she has helped me get quality, reliable people for everything from drywall spackling to AC repair, and she is never more than a phone call/email away! Tanya regularly hosts fabulous cocktail hours and events for all her clients (not just ones currently looking for a home, but everyone who has ever used her) at some of the hottest spots in Austin, which is always a perk! I am admittedly a very picky and demanding client, and I assure you that if you trust her with the biggest purchase of your life, your home, you will not be disappointed!" - Lindley E.
