With a deep understanding of the Austin market, Heather made selling our house an absolute breeze – it sold immediately! Not only is Heather incredibly knowledgeable, but she’s also well connected with a vast network of other agents that helped streamline the process. Her relationships in the industry proved to be a tremendous asset, making everything seamless from start to finish. What truly sets Heather apart is how she made us feel like we were her only clients. She was always available, positive, and encouraging, consistently going above and beyong to ensure our experience was stress-free and successful. Beyond being an amazing agent, Heather is also an exceptional person – someone who genuinly cares and is fully invested in her clients happiness.

I have a real estate investment business and have worked with numerous realtors. Most were good, one or two not so good, and I can say Heather is a standout. She is thorough, hard working, honest, and pleasant to communicate with. I highly recommend her.

Wow! It’s hard to even describe how relieved we are to have chosen Heather Powell as our realtor. While we know many realtors, the fact that she is a Native Austinite makes her an amazing choice. Literally one day before our house went on the market, our next door neighbor’s house (of similar size to ours), went on the market for $100K less than ours. We were panicked. But Heather remained calm, cool, and collected. Being a broker and having many other broker friends, Heather conducted a brokers’ open before the public open. Multiple brokers toured each home and assured Heather that the price she chose was exactly appropriate for the many upgrades that we had added to our house. The day of the public open house, we had an at-asking-price offer in 7 hours. Other benefits – that are too important to go without mentioning – is that a) she comes armed with a huge inventory of lovely furniture to stage your home with and b) she has an outstanding handyman that does work exclusively for her. If we had to find/schedule all the “last minute” things like paint touch-ups, covering nail holes where pictures were, etc., it would have taken forever. Having Heather as our realtor-broker was simple one of the BEST financial decisions we have ever made!

We had an absolutely stellar experience with Heather Powell in both buying and selling our home in Steiner Ranch, Austin. From day one, she went above and beyond to meet our unique needs. We were looking for a home in a safe neighborhood, within our price range, and with a reasonable commute. Most importantly, we needed excellent schools for our twins with special needs. Heather did the research, found the perfect location, and helped us close the deal — all in one day since we were living out of state! Even after we moved in, she remained a valuable resource, providing recommendations for services throughout the 2.5 years we lived there. When it was time to sell, she made the process seamless and sold our house quickly. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, attentive, and hardworking real estate agent who truly cares, Heather Powell is the one. Highly recommended!
