TESTIMONIALS

"A fantastic referral partner. I sent him a home seller last year who was terrified they would lose their shirts when they sold due to the shifting market in Austin. Brendan and his team got them under contract in less than two weeks when the average was like 2 months on market and with a price that made my clients INCREDIBLY happy. Steady, professional, and knowledgeable. Definite recommend!"

"Wow, Brendan provided a truly white glove experience from start to finish when selling our home. His knowledge of the Austin real estate market, especially given how much it’s shifted this year, was truly invaluable. He was professional, polished, and handled everything with care. Thanks to his strategic approach, we were one of just three homes that sold, while more than 40 others in the area continued to sit on the market. His market insights were incredibly helpful in guiding us to the best possible decision.

"Brendan and his team delivered great service to a buyer referral I sent them recently. Brendan worked quickly to show this first time home buyer the property he wanted to see. He provided the guidance and information needed to get the desired property under contract and closed quickly. Thanks for being a great referral partner Brendan! I'll continue to send my Austin referrals to your team!"

"I had an excellent experience with Brendan and his team! They are professional, friendly, and communicative. Mia, a member of the team, was phenomenal at communicating updates and was quick to take action.
I highly recommend working with them!"

"Brendan and his team are as good as they come for a first time home buying experience and I will be using them again when we purchase our next home in the future.
My fiancé and I were first time home buyers, so we had a lot of things that we had to either learn or go through for the first time and it could have been a very overwhelming and stressful experience...however Brendan and his team made this whole process extremely smooth and as stress free as possible.
We had a tight turnaround time due to my fiancé being on a resident's schedule, and yet Brendan and his team gave us all of the att… Read Moreention and time necessary to make the right decision when it came to purchasing a house.
Brendan himself provided us with great insight on how the process would work, the current status of the home buying market, recommendations, and very refreshing truths about each area that we were looking at. Since Brendan has a team that he works with (and its not just him) there was not a single detail that went overlooked during any point in the process.
The house tour specialist was very prepared on every house that we went and looked at, whether it be red flags, commute times, zone issues, privacy concerns, etc they were all laid out in front of us before we even looked at the house.
The team member that walked us through the closing process constantly checked in on us, made sure that we were given the best help possible, and helped us be prepared for what the lender was going to ask for ahead of time. That way, with our shorter closing time, we were able to basically glide through it.
Last but not least - while Brendan's team was able to take care of all those details and little things Brendan himself was able to focus on negotiating with the seller and making sure he got us everything that we asked for before we closed on the home. He was always free to offer advice, what a good offer/counter-offer would look like and the rationale behind it. I always always always felt like he was not just in it for himself, but truly representing us and making sure we felt cared for. Not a single time did we ever feel like we were being taken advantage of. It truly felt like a partnership from the first meeting.
I cannot give enough praise to Brendan and his team for how much help they were. They were responsive, engaged, detail oriented, patient, and kind above all else. They made this first time home buying experience a true breeze and I would recommend them to any first time home buyer!" Read Less

"What started out as a referral quickly grew into an investment and a lifelong friendship. Brendan and his team of excellence were committed from the start to ensuring that my first home-buying experience was definitively the best it could be. And it was. Before any paperwork, Brendan educated me on the entire process, gladly answered questions that I might have otherwise been intimidated to ask as a first-timer, and ultimately helped me decide on whether a house was even right for me. His team was transparent with each decision and each due date, with no surprises. This took all my stress away… Read More. They were there to meet my needs and answer any questions--after business hours and on weekends--right up until closing. Most importantly, Sanford Realty recognized me as an individual, and not merely a client--even as far as checking in on me during the day. This is why I have and will wholeheartedly recommend Sanford Realty to anyone looking for a helping hand with their first home or any home. I could not have done this without them!! 6/5 Stars."

"I worked with Brendan to purchase my first home earlier this year. He and his team specifically Devon were amazing and made the whole process seamless, stress free, and he got us a great deal. Would recommended him to anyone in the Austin area."

"Brendan and team were great to work with. He was recommended to me by a couple of friends, and after speaking with him a bit, I decided to go with them. And I'm glad I did. Brendan's team were all super knowledgeable about each step of the process, and provided useful step-by-step instructions on how things would work out, including actions that I should make and how to talk to other professionals I'd meet in this process.
I was a first time home buyer, so I had all sorts of weird questions. I always got insightful answers, and was never felt to be a nuisance. Beginning to end, I think B… Read Morerendan, Devon, and team gave me the right tools to make my decisions, the best support structure I could ask for, and a good peace of mind after all was said and done that I'd made the best choice I could.
