Review for Member: Cristi McGowan
ZillowVERIFIEDCristi and her team recently helped us sell our family home, and I can't recommend them highly enough. From our very first conversation, Cristis deep market knowledge and experience were evident. After interviewing several agents, it was clear that she stood out. She quickly assessed the strengths and challenges of our property and outlined a clear, data-driven marketing strategy. Her approach combined online listings, social media outreach, and professional photography, ensuring our home was presented in the best possible light. She also came prepared with detailed market comparables and insights into our target buyersaEUR"insights that proved to be spot on. Cristis strong industry connections gave us a significant advantage, from tapping into buyer networks to coordinating with inspectors and surveyors. Thanks to her guidance, we listed our home on a Monday and were under contract before the week was outaEUR"while similar homes in the area had lingered on the market for months. Her negotiation expertise was instrumental in keeping the deal on track. One of the most refreshing aspects of working with Cristi was her clear commitment to professionalism and ethics. She prioritized transparency and honesty throughout the process, ensuring that every decision was in our best interest. I never felt pressured, only well-informed and supported. Toward the end of the transaction, things became a bit complicated when our buyers faced delays in selling their own home. Cristi handled every challenge with professionalism, providing frequent updates and expertly navigating contract extensions and disclosures. Thanks to her diligence, what could have been a stressful situation remained manageable and straightforward for us. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, and results-driven real estate broker, Cristi is an outstanding choice.

ZillowVERIFIEDI cannot recommend Cristi enough! She came highly recommended by friends and she truly went above and beyond. Despite the complexities of my out-of-state situation, Cristi consistently ensured I was well-informed at every step of the home sale process. Her responsiveness and willingness to address all my concerns promptly were remarkable. Her expertise in the market and adept negotiation skills gave me confidence that I was receiving top-notch guidance. What sets Cristi apart is her genuine care for her clients. Thank you, Cristi, for your exceptional support and guidance throughout! ?????

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have had the pleasure of working with Cristi on three projects now in Waco. She helped us sell a "student" home we had purchased, and my daughter purchase her first home. She recently helped my son purchase a condo to occupy while at Baylor. It is difficult handling these transactions as an out of state parent. However, she made each process stress free and helped down to the smallest detail. I am pleased to say there were no unwelcome surprises in any of our transactions. She has also recommended great individuals to work on projects. Cristi is very detail oriented and hasn't missed a thing! We will definitely work with her again on our next transaction and very highly recommend her services!

ZillowVERIFIEDThe process of selling our first home was so smooth! Cristi and her team were amazing. She truly is the aEURoewhole packageaEUR?! She was able to connect us with people to get the home ready to sell and boy were we impressed! She took care of everything, even helping us pick out colors and beautifully staged the home. She truly went above and beyond to make this process as worry free as possible. She was efficient and prompt with all communications. Cristi never seem to tire of our questions and always made us feel at ease. We are so glad we choose her to help us with this process.

ZillowVERIFIEDIn settling my moms estate, choosing Christi was one of the best moves we made. She laid out the process clearly for us and even gave us great sources for removing furniture and trash. She made it possible for us to handle the sale and closing from our home (over 100 miles away). She presented us with offers for my moms home within 2 weeks and closed a month after listing. We would not hesitate to recommend Cristi to anyone needing a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDMany times, the importance of communication is overlooked in a relationship, be it personal or professional. But, the value of its worth cannot be understated. Cristi McGowan has this quality, far and above most. Combine this with her knowledge of the real estate market, and financing it all becomes a winning combination. Over six months ago my wife and I started our search from Seattle to find a new home in the Waco area. Based on comparative reviews from her - and other web sites - we decided to go with Cristi. In hind sight, it was a wise and fortunate choice. To find our home, we needed to visit Waco on several different occasion to look around. Cristi always met us with enthusiasm and evident pride in the Waco area. She listened to our needs and helped to narrow our search for the perfect home. Whenever we needed to fly back to Seattle, Cristi kept in touch via text msgs and emails, keeping us abreast of available homes and market trends. As we finalized our search, she also kept in contact with our real estate broker in Seattle to help coordinate a aEURoecourtesy closingaEUR? as we sold our home in Seattle and bought our new home in Woodway. Even better, due to our work commitments in Seattle, we were unable to meet our moving van when it arrived at our new home. Once again, Cristi stepped up to the plate and graciously supervised the delivery of our home furnishings. In our opinion, Cristi went above and beyond our expectations for a real estate broker and we, without hesitation, recommend her for any of your real estate needs. Loren and Lori

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi did an amazing job helping me find a home! I was trying to decide whether to buy a condo to live in, a big home, small home, etc. She worked with me and showed me multiple types of homes and explained the pros and cons of each. We ended up finding a home that was near completion and made an offer on it before it was done. She was really great during the negotiations at knowing what to ask for. The whole process seemed easy and smooth while I worked with her on getting through closing. Couldn't recommend a better retailer in Waco!

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi was fantastic! Right after listing my home, she had stagers and professional photo's done, immediately set up an open house Tea. I had close to 60 couples come to the open house, and sold the house in 26 days for top dollar. I was so amazed at the results. She really is very good at what she does. I would strongly recommend her if you are interested in selling or buying a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi listed the home we owned as a student rental in Waco. We chose Cristi because of her energy and ability to connect with us. Her expertise and strategy landed us an above asking price offer, and she kept us informed throughout the process. Her closing team made the transition a breeze. We can specifically recommend Cristi to out-of-state owners who need someone trustworthy and capable. We give Cristi our highest recommendation!

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi is definitely in a class all her own. She definitely goes above & beyond for her clients. She had great ideas for getting our house ready for sale - and even had connections with tradesmen to get the work done that was more than we could handle. The whole process was handled with professionalism and enthusiasm. She is a delight to work with & is super creative. Then when our closing got dicy, she pulled out all the stops, got the deal closed!

Review for Member: Cristi McGowan
ZillowVERIFIEDCristi, was great to work with. I think my situation was somewhat unique. I didn't want to sell my house, but due to a death in the family, I needed to move to take care of a sister. So on top of the family issues, I was stressed about the house (to which I had an emotional attachment to!!).. She kept me calm and walked me thru the process and answered my millions of questions, and when I asked them over and over, she answered them like it was the first time I had asked. She was in contact me all the time and not just about the sale. I never had to call her, she and her staff always called me with updates, and sometimes just to call and see how I was doing and if things were going OK with family. She shared her knowledge of the selling, marketing and financial process in a way even I understood what was happening and what was going to happen next. She never assumes anything, she asks the right questions and starts the conversation, tells you what to do and what is going to happen and the next thing you know.. BOOM the house is sold!!!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi is an exceptional realtor. She went above and beyond to make a highly stressful transaction come off seamlessly. She even took the time to help coordinate contractors to make some necessary repairs on the property we purchased. Getting to know her was an enjoyable experience. I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home in Waco and the surrounding areas!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had planned on consulting with a few realtors before choosing one that was right for us, but having met with Cristi first we didnt meet with anyone else. Extremely knowledgeable, well connected in the area, and calculated in providing advice, Cristi makes selling and buying as painless as possible. She asks all the right questions and has all the right answers. After speaking with us about our wants and needs for about 15 minutes, she knew exactly what we wanted and showed us aEURoethe oneaEUR? right off the bat- we ended up purchasing the first home she showed us. Despite having our ideal home in our sights, our buying process was littered with pitfalls and setbacks, but Cristi stayed patient, kept us focused, and provided invaluable guidance and positive outlook to get us back on track every time. The sale could not have gone better. Thanks to Cristis hard work and understanding of what buyers want, we had multiple offers by the end of the first official day on the market and all we had to do was pick the one we liked the best. Whatever you need, whatever situation comes up- Cristi will handle it and if she cant, she will aEURoehave a guyaEUR? that will take care of it in a friendly, timely fashion. There were times in both the buy and the sale where we were ready to relent in negotiations, but Cristi wouldnt let us! She kept working and fighting to get us the best possible terms, and in the end, she saved us so much money and hassle. Cristi totally changed my understanding of what realtors do. I HIGHLY recommend Cristi! Seriously, just hire her- you will not regret it!

We truly feel that Cristi wanted the best for us. We are very happy and highly recommend Cristi.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi is on top of her game. Not only is she knowledgeable, but she is kind heated. She truly looks out for the best interest of her client's needs. She does not try to pressure one into buying a home over their budget or in an area they are not comfortable living in. I highly recommend Cristi for any real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi Mcgowan made selling our home a stress free, pleasant experience. We never met in her office, she took the time and went out of her way, to take care of all business matters in our home. When we had questions, there was never a time that we couldn't get in touch with her. We were impressed with the care she took in capturing the beauty and uniqueness of our home and land and how she was able to convey it in advertisement. We consider Cristi a friend, not just our agent. Cristi was able to find that perfect buyer who will appreciate and care for the property as much as we have, which means alot to us.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi McGowan was very involved, and made sure I bought the right home, for the right price, in the right neighborhood for my needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi did a great job working through several issues with a very difficult buyer while selling our house . Our house was only on the market for one day before we received an offer which we accepted. I would recommend Cristi if you are looking to buy or sell your house.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi was absolutely amazing in helping us sell our home and find our new home! Although selling our home was a little more challenging than finding our new home, Cristi always remained positive, which helped us stay positive. She kept us updated constantly on any new developments and throughout the entire process. Our new home couldn't be more perfect for us! We would highly recommend Cristi if you are in the market for a home or are planning to sell your home!

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi is the most ambitious, detail oriented realtor I have ever met, and we've had several. We had spent close to a year looking at homes and I have to say, we are pretty particular but she stuck with us right to the end. If you want a realtor that you can trust, call Cristi McGowan. She is very knowledgeable, patient, and always wears a smile. She will help you find your dream home and go the extra mile to make it yours.

ZillowVERIFIEDCristi has great energy. She sold our house in about a month after it had been on the market with another realtor and FSBO for eight months. Cristi kept us in the loop constantly as to what was happening. She was great on being prompt with all paperwork. She is very knowledgeable. She was very aware of obstacles and gave us good insight as to what was reasonable and realistic in selling. We could always get ahold of her, when needed. If we were selling again, (God forbid) we would not hesitate to call her.

ZillowVERIFIEDI had no experience in selling a house and needed to sell my Grandmother's house. Cristi was very patient and understanding. She really took the lead, but was also very good at explaining things to me in such a way that I had complete understanding of each step of the process. She was not only very professional, but also very warm, caring and sincere. I would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone in need of a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDShe is a very committed agent. She constantly notified us of houses that were coming on the market that met our needs and price range, and was available to show houses to us on very short notice. She stayed actively involved throughout the entire process and assisted us well beyond the transaction itself. I have nothing but good things to say about our experience with Cristi.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I worked with Cristi McGowan and we could not have had a better experience! We were both first time home owners and very out of our elements. Cristi was there every step of the way and always responded to all of our texts and emails. She made sure we understood everything about the house and the home buying process, and she worked hard to show us houses even with our crazy conflicting work schedules. If you're even thinking about maybe buying a house, I could not recommend Cristi any more. You are guaranteed a knowledgeable, amazing, hard working realtor

ZillowVERIFIEDI had not had to much luck with real estate agents in Waco until I found Cristi McGowan. She was very professional, knowledgable of the local real estate market and always accessable. If I had a question or concern I could get in touch with her almost immmediately. Previously, whether I was buying or selling property, I would find it next to impossible to reach an agent, especially after 4 or 5 PM and certainly never on the week end. I used to wonder how any of them ever sold anything. Like, when did they think people with full time jobs (and could actually afford to buy something) have time to look at properties? Cristi always took the time to keep me informed. She seemed to truly care about me as a person. I never felt like she was more concerned about her comission then she was about actually helping me sell my property. Whether you're buying or selling real estate, Cristi McGowan should be your go-to-girl.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe first contacted Cristi when we were looking to purchase an existing home in the China Spring school district. Well, we wound up purchasing a new home from Stylecraft Builders instead and Cristi was able to help us with that also. It was especially helpful that she used to work for Stylecraft, so she knew what to expect and how to deal with the process of building a new home, versus buying a pre-existing home. I recently referred my daughter and son in law to Cristi, as they are in the market for a home in the China Spring area as well. It will be their first home purchase and I know they're in good hands with Cristi.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I were looking to possibly settle down in Waco after my husband's retirement from the Navy because of it's proximity to Dallas and Austin, low cost of living, less people than the big city while still having recreational activities for our 1 year old daughter and us to enjoy. I thought it would be nice to look the area over and check out some properties so I emailed Ms. McGowan but never heard back from her, so I followed up with a phone call. Ms. McGowan was very rude in the manner of her questioning as to my reason for wanting to move to Waco, and showed no interest in showing us houses on a Saturday (the only day we could drive up).

ZillowVERIFIEDChristi is a genuine individual who allows the client to make up his/her own mind, while at the same time providing expertise and guidance to facilitate the decision-making process. I appreciated her obvious expertise in arranging and coordinating a sale and facilitating repairs and recommending people to do them. I appreciated her confidence and steadfastness at a time when things didn't go smoothly, and she helped me stick with the process, resulting in an agreeable contract. I say thank you to Christi, and I would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIEDI live in Colorado, but I owned a condo that my kids used while going to Baylor. Cristi handled everything for me. She made the sale and closed the deal and all I had to do was sign some paperwork. She saved me a trip or two to Texas. I never even met Cristi in person, and I would not hesitate a second to recommend Cristi.
