"We were so happy with our entire experience working with Cristina and the Corazón Team. During our first meeting with her, we were deciding whether to sell or rent our home since we were moving out of state. Cristina helped us lay out the two scenarios, and to our surprise, didn't flat out recommend selling the home. She provided comps for both scenarios, walked through recommendations, etc. After we ultimately decided to sell, she and her team were organized, communicative, and offered stellar recommendations to help us sell the home quickly. She helped guide us through the negotiation process and we were able to close within a month of us listing. Very happy with the professionalism, communication and process of the team.

"I recently had the privilege of working with Cristina’s team and had Amelia Gomez as our main real estate agent, during what turned out to be a challenging home-buying journey. If it weren't for Amelia's unwavering dedication and expertise, I doubt I would be a homeowner today. Our quest to find a home was not an easy one. The local real estate market was incredibly competitive, and there were limited options that met my requirements (a home over 2,700 sq ft with a large lot) and I was feeling discouraged and frustrated, but Amelia assured me that we could find the right home, no matter how slim the options seemed. Amelia proved to be a true advocate for us. They tirelessly scoured the market, reaching out to other real estate professionals, and thinking creatively to uncover hidden gems. Their extensive network and deep knowledge of the area were invaluable in identifying properties that others might have overlooked. When we finally found a house that I fell in love with, I thought the hard part was over. However, we encountered a significant issue during the title closing process that threatened the entire deal. This is where Amelia truly shone. They tackled the problem head-on, working tirelessly to resolve the issue and ensuring that my interests were protected every step of the way. Unfortunately, due to circumstances that were way outside our realtor’s control (the home title needed to go through court process) we could not close on the original home we had set our sights for. Although we were very discouraged, Amelia’s positive attitude and commitment to finding a solution for us really facilitated us to keep searching for our dream home. Amelia’s skills, determination, and dedication, we found a home that perfectly fit our needs and price point. If you're in the market for a realtor who will go to great lengths to help you find the perfect home, even in challenging circumstances, the Corazon team is a great team you can trust. They are not just a real estate agency; they are a true partner who will fight for your interests and ensure your homeownership dreams become a reality, no matter the obstacles. I wholeheartedly recommend the Corazon team to anyone in need of a dedicated and experienced real estate professional.

"We can't over-emphasize the wonderful service the Corazón Team provided us. They are very knowledgeable about the local market and provided very precise suggestions to prep our property, priced it well, and sold it for over asking. Cristina and Amelia kept us up to date on progress throughout the closing process. Mainly, we felt very comfortable with the team we entrusted this major life event with and wholeheartedly recommend them."- Gary Cole 03/24/2022

"Cristina Valdés with Corazón Team at Realty Austin assisted in my Estate Sale in Central East Austin. I can’t say enough good things about them. My experience as (a first time) Executor for my mother-in-law’s home, which was the gathering place for all birthdays, holidays, and literally everything else for the entire family was a difficult and emotional one. Cristina, Amelia, and the entire Corazón Team recognized and honored that fact and showed a level of patience, kindness, and compassion I never would have expected from a realtor. I also can’t thank them enough for taking the time to answer all my questions. And I never had to wait for an answer. The important thing here is that we weren’t just a client to them, but we were treated as if we were members of their family. In addition, the advice and experience were invaluable in getting an awesome selling price for our home, especially considering the tight time constraints with which they had to work with. Cristina was warm and compassionate as well as being a consummate realtor to work with. In fact, the entire Corazón Team was a pleasure to work with. Bottom line- call Realty Austin and request Cristina and the Corazón Team for your realty needs. You definitely won’t regret your decision!"- Kevin Nissen 01/09/2022

"Cristina found us a house to buy when we first arrived in Austin. It was the perfect house for us, and she provided the best advice to offer and win it. When we had to move unexpectedly, it was Cristina and her talented team that readied the house and found great renters for us. Finally, when we decided to sell, Cristina, in the midst of a pandemic, gathered her resources to prepare the house, stage, and get multiple bids within a flash, 100% start to finish online and with us thousands of miles away. Cristina knows Austin, and because of her ties to the community, experience, and positive energy, everything falls into place like clockwork. Over the years, she has put into position a motivated network of resources for every aspect of the business, and that is why I would recommend Cristina Valdes to be your Realtor."- Jeff K. 12/15/2020
