Edy Embry – Edy Knows Austin

Edy helped negotiate the seller to do about 30k of work before closing. She is experienced, knowledgeable, kind, honest and excellent at her job! I would recommend Edy to ANYONE selling or buying!

We highly recommend Edy to anyone looking for a realtor in the Austin area. Edy helped us purchase our first home and we could not have been happier with the level of knowledge and service that Edy provided. She was a great resource during the entire home-buying process and her response time to all of our questions was very quick. She was able to work around our schedules and meet us in the evenings and on weekends which was extremely helpful. In a fast moving market like Austin, we believe it is important to have a realtor that knows the area and knows how the market is behaving, which Edy does. Edy is very personable and easy to work with. During the ups and downs of our home-buying process, Edy helped us keep cool heads and make well informed, smart decisions. We will definitely work with Edy again for our future home, and strongly recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor.

My fiancé and I closed on our first house on Dec 30th, 2016, and we have Edy Embry to thank for helping that process go so smoothly. She was absolutely wonderful throughout our entire home buying experience. We never felt pressured to pursue a home if we didn’t want to, which was one of my biggest fears going in. Edy was/is a woman of her word and made sure we were able to close on the exact day we wanted to (which wasn’t an easy task given the circumstances). She was an incredible liaison between us and the seller and stood up for us on more than one occasion when the seller tried to push back on some of our requests. My fiancé and I could not have been happier with our experience using Edy as our realtor. We would both recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone interested in the Austin real estate market, she’s definitely an expert on the subject!

Edy is the best. She really does KNOW Austin, esp. Barton Hills & Zilker and understands the lay of the land, minute by minute. She’s a dream to work with. She sold our house and subsequently found us a new house within hours!

I wouldn’t buy/sell another house without Edy on our team – she is awesome! She is an expert and helped us find and buy the perfect house, as well as, sell our house for way more than we expected. All I can recommend is….do everything she says. She helped us inexpensively revamp our house and it sold in the first weekend, and also helped us negotiate an incredible deal on the house we bought. She knows the Austin market well and is highly recommended.

Edy listed and sold a home for me this summer and I could not have been more pleased. As I do not live in Austin where the home is located, Edy was a great resource for the make-ready stage, and provided contacts as well as met repair people at the house when I could not. She was professional and was incredibly respectful of everyone involved. I would definitely use Edy’s realtor services again in the future

We are so glad we chose Edy for our selling agent. We tried to sell our home ourselves as For Sale By Owner and we got nowhere. The only interested callers we got were agents trying to get us to sign with them. After a couple weeks of that frustration we decided to go with an agent. We interviewed a half dozen real estate agents. Some we immediately knew were not any kind of go- getter we would expect, some dazzled us with all kinds of technological angles, how they do business, one had a tempting lower commission angle, and then there was Edy. Her drive and determination stood out. Persistent. Not persistent in pressuring us to hire us, far from it. But you can tell she knows her business. We chose her. She gave us ideas on how to stage the house and yard, got a professional photographer to take pictures for the listing but most of all she had an idea how best to sell our place. We knew our neighborhood is a popular one and perhaps is the next one to hit big in Austin. She worked the listing and open house with such a plan that our house was on the market four days and we had to choose between six offers all over our asking price! She purposely listed it what I thought was just a little low in hopes of creating that effect. It really worked. She is so helpful and supportive through what is a very stressful time in people’s lives. She is the right call

Edy helped us find an investment property, which turned out to be one that never reached the MLS and that we would never have found without her. She provides full service, including recommending contacts for maintenance and repair that also turned out to be great to work with. She helped us in ways we may not have even thought of without her. Highly recommended!

Edy is amazing! She is very knowledgeable and thorough. Edy helped educate me on the buying process and guided me the whole way. I felt very informed and prepared to make good decisions during the entire process. It took us about 3 months, 30+ showings and 5 submitted offers before we found the perfect location. She remained committed and determined to the end. Edy was always confident that we would find a good one and we sure did.

As a new resident of Austin, I found Edy’s help invaluable as I searched for a house to buy. I wanted something similar to the house I sold before I moved to an apartment in Austin, and Edy helped me find the perfect place. She was always professional as I went through the emotional highs and lows of making an offer, applying for a mortgage, and moving. She knows how to make an offer that will get accepted and the right people to contact for all the other services involved, Best of all, she is fun to be with. If you want to buy a house in Austin, talk to Edy. You won’t regret it.

My wife and I had heard horror stories about buying and selling homes; especially in the Austin Texas market. Families would be days away from closing and then something would go wrong or a newly married couple putting a bid on their dream home – multiple times – only to have the higher bidder win. So, naturally, when it came time for us to put into action the plan we had been working on for over six years, renting and saving, sadly moving further and further away from the heart of South Austin because of skyrocketing rent, we turned to our old neighbor, Edy, for help and guidance. We knew we made the right choice going with someone we could trust – our kids used to play together on our little dead end street in Barton Hills – but her expertise and insight helped us find and buy our first home with such ease and professionalism. She knew the market and she basically held our hands and clearly explained, coached and supported us, making our experience hundreds of times better than almost every other story I hear!
It is in your best interests to go with the best in the business and Edy Embry is clearly a notch above the rest!’
We will be forever grateful, Edy! Thank you so much!!
Love,
The Wilkinsons

Edy did a great job selling our house. She followed through on everything she said she would do and got our house sold at a great price and fairly quickly. I was very impressed when we got multiple offers and she did not rush to accept any of them but instead convinced us to hold on for other offers.

Edy nailed the marketing and pricing strategies for our house in a part of town I’d call “unpredictable,” and ended up getting us a great deal more than asking price in just under one day on the market. Her slogan is “Edy Knows Austin” and if our experience is any indication, I’d say that’s very true.

We were kind of a mess, already in the middle of a move. Edy set us on track, made us feel comfortable and confident, and got a stager in. Nothing felt easy about our move, but thanks to Edy meeting with us over Skype and always being there to get us through things, selling the house was by far the most painless part.

Edy got our house sold before listing above the asking price. I highly recommend her for selling or buying a house. Her client is her first priority and her work ethic is beyond reproach, she is an incredible professional. From our initial meeting where she came prepared with a video presentation on I- pad, to her list of recommended contractors, make ready crews and even a company to remove a storage house lock stock and barrel on a days notice, she was one prepared agent. Edy took care of all the details of getting my parents home ready to put on the market. Since I live in San Antonio, it made the process stress free and efficient. Edy was informative, giving me viable options that where applicable to my circumstance of selling my parents home as my mother’s power of attorney and executor for my father’s estate. She even responded to emails and texts after hours and on weekends.

Edy is an amazing real estate agent. I am really grateful to her for the incredible job she did selling my house. Just before my house was to go on the market, there was a mysterious water leak. I was in another state. Edy helped me to track down the source of the water, which wasn’t easy (it turned out it was the water dispenser on the refrigerator that malfunctioned due to a power surge!) So then repairs had to be made, and Edy helped me through the whole process of getting the house back in shape. She provided essential moral support as well as contacts for repair people. Then she sold the house and had a lot of insight about vetting buyers and did a fantastic job with negotiations. This was the most difficult home sale I’ve ever been involved with, and I’m really glad I had Edy as my selling agent.

I couldn’t have chosen a better real estate agent to have on my side than Edy Embry. Throughout my first sale of an investment property, Edy exposed her tireless patience and vast experience by explaining the process and answering all my questions. Not only is she a truly talented and dependable professional but she is also sincerely friendly and amazingly thoughtful. Edy will definitely be on my team for future sales and purchases!

Nick L

She helped us to get $11K over asking price!! Just do what she says! She knows the market and how to get top dollar, thanks Edy! Don’t get me wrong, it is a lot of work to get your house in tip top shape but the check is NICE

Christine B

Edy stuck with us through the long and difficult journey toward buying our new home! She kept a cool head and gave reliable advice throughout the entire process. She was always on our side and looking out for our interests. I’m so glad she was the realtor we chose!

Amber D

We had used a 1% commission company on our previous list and sell; but after working with Edy on our most recent sale, we fully understand the difference of working with a committed, caring professional. We had to finalize the transaction from out of state and Edy went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of – and the staging service saved us a ton of time and expense. We highly recommend Edy!

Edy is amazing, she guided me through my first home buying experience. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to find a house in my price range, but she found the perfect house for me. She corresponded with the lenders and the builders, she truly made this happen for me. She fought for everything I needed, like a lower interest rate, lower closing fees and inspection issues. She offered plenty of advice and helpful input. She made my experience very easy and smooth. Edy feels like family now, she even encouraged reaching out to her if I have future homeowner questions! I will be recommending her to everyone I know.
