Thank you and your Team for all your help !!! Hope we meet again!!!
My Wife and I are from Bend Oregon. We asked Tom to help us find a home in the Greater Temple area. Of course being 2000 miles away can create some issues. Well I can say Tom came through for us. He was able to find the right house in the right neighborhood and at the right price! We can't wait to move to Temple and we will recommend Tom and Brautigan Realty to anyone.
My husband and I had Tom Brautigan as our realtor, and let me just say that we will certainly choose him again if we are on the market for another house! He is very detail-oriented and honest; he did not sugarcoat the houses we saw and made sure to tell us what to expect with the age and conditions of the homes. We started looking for a home around October 2018 (give or take a month or two) and Tom was with us from the very beginning--ALL the way to closing in late March 2019! Tom was INCREDIBLY patient with us as we had such a difficult time figuring out what we wanted, and Tom made sure to appeal to what we both wanted in a house. His strategy of showing us only four houses in a day and choosing our favorite for that day (and discarding the others) really helped us narrow down which home would be best for us. Additionally, when we thought we were going to close and received bad news that we could not at the agreed upon time, Tom fought tooth and nail to negotiate the next closing date/time, and eventually to get us our earnest money back (honestly I did not expect to get it back in the 1st place, but Tom surprised me!). Plus, he returns my texts/calls right away, which was helpful in calming my anxiety!I cannot express enough the gratitude my husband and I feel towards Brautigan Realty. Thanks to Tom and his team, we found our forever home!!!

Though we never got to write an offer, her knowledge, response time, and professionalism is above par. I'd recommend her to someone looking for a local agent. She is incredibly sweet.
Although I interviewed several agents before Carissa approached to me, I ended up hiring her over the phone without meeting her in person.I can tell that she is professional, passionate about what she's doing, listening to the client's need well, sharp but nice at the same time. It turned out to be a very good decision. The transaction went smoothly. As I'm out the town, she took some extra responsibility beyond the scope of jobs agreed in the listing contract, to facilitate the sale. Her service is very much appreciated and I would highly recommend her.

Wanting to sell our home in Temple, TX, we saw Brautigan Realty's great reviews on line and decided to call them. Heidi answered the phone and we scheduled an appt. She arrived at our appt on time and prepared. She gave us a list of homes comparable to ours, and answered all our questions with confidence. Heidi gave us instruction on how to stage our home, and we followed that instruction and listed our home at the price she suggested according to the comps. Exactly 1 month after listing our house on the market, our house was sold at our asking price. Some of the things we appreciated was that Heidi responded to all our texts, seemingly, with minimal delay. She had no problem explaining things to us, and she was very patient with us each time we contacted her with questions. She also did more than what we expected, and we couldn't have been happier with the entire transaction. We would be completely confident in recommending Heidi and her team to anyone looking for a Realtor in her area. Excellent service.
I worked with Carissa Chandler while searching for my new home.Our list of needs for a home was specific, and my husband and my preferences on a home: other than cookie-cutter homes (still beautiful, but not our style).Carissa took the time to discuss homes on the market and discuss with us our needs in a home. She took the time to sift through the market and cherry-pick the ones she thought might be the one. She allowed us plenty of time at showings to feel each house and imagine our stuff in it. Some of them were immediate "no's" and she had no problem just closing the door right then and there.She showed us homes all over her area, from Killeen to Temple to Belton, and showed us digital listings at an even wider range. After about 20 "maybe" homes in person, we finally found the one, and she knew it, too! She was thorough in creating the contract and ensuring it was moving and keeping up with a sharp timeline.She showed up to closing to make sure closing went how it should, with no surprises for us or for the title company.Overall, she provided a service that was personal and professional. Thanks, Brautigan Realty and Carissa! And thanks Josie for assisting Carissa during our process!!

I met Tom some years ago while serving in the Army together and let me tell you he has not changed. He is hard-working loyal and true to his word. I thank Tom, Heidi, and the rest of the supporting members of Brautigan Realty. My house would still be on the market today if it was not for Tom and of course Heidi having his back. Thanks for all the hard work and patience you have provided during the sale of my home.
I was kinda amazed to see there were more people on this list. I thought we were her only customers. Anytime we deal with Heidi/Team - its like we are the only customers. Great to deal with, Great to work out the kinks with, and GREAT on customer service.
Heidi Brautigan is awesome, Heidi wasted no time helping me get my house show ready. Heidi came in and gave me pointers on what needed to be done, had sign letting perspective buyers know this house was "coming soon" ready and placed the day I contacted her. Heidi is very professional and made the process of selling my house very easy and stress free. Heidi even helped move and arrange furniture to get the house show ready. Heidi knows her stuff! I thought selling the house would take at least three to six months, only took one week. I will recommend Heidi to everyone I know and anyone who is looking for a great realtor. Thank you so much Heidi for helping make this process as painless as possible.Your most grateful client,Cami
Tom Brautigan and the entire staff of Brautigan reality is highly recommended from our experience. First off I was an out of state Buyer and buying a historical home so this made the purchase so much more challenging than normal. Tom and his entire team were excellent at getting back to me so quick and all times of the day and night. Tom went out of his way and above all expectation. I truly could not have closed this house if it was not for his experience and help. The entire experience working with Tom and his entire staff also made me realize why I want to move to Texas as the hospitality and service is like no other. During the negotiation phase, I feel Tom did an excellent job in getting me the best price we could get and worked through all the challenges of buying a historical property. Any future house purchases for me will be though Brautigan Realty...

Heidi was great! We didn't live locally and she was a great asset in helping our sale go smoothly and quickly. We had 3 offers in less than 24 hours and she helped wrap up final details!
I had the pleasure of working with Tom Brautigan and to say the experience was excellent is an understatement. I purchased my home from another TIME ZONE(literally), and Tom was there every step of the way. From negotiations to walking through homes and making videos for my family and me. Not to mention he is a military expert, so he knew exactly what my family and I were going through moving on such short notice. He still calls to check in on us and make sure everything is going well. Great guy, extremely trustworthy, and caring. I would recommend him to any of my loved ones! Thanks again Tom!
Heidi Brautigan is a professional realtor. She is patient, consistent, and hard-working person. Every time I can easily reach her for any questions and get resolved. She know very well what duty a good realtor has and in practice she behave professionally and nicely. I highly recommend her.
When I first met with Heidi, she showed high confidence and very knowledgeable in her profession. She gave me a report which had my home evaluation, some Q&A on home selling and step-wise guidance on how to prepare our house for listing. What impressed me was that she had less than 24 hours to do her homework on my house (I called her late evening and scheduled next day appointment with her), yet she came with a very convincing presentation. Throughout our conversation, she showed that she was very familiar with local real estate regulations. Besides that, she was very familiar with the market price around our neighborhood and provided us some feedback from buyer's point of view. Once we engaged her as our agent, she was very responsive to our email/text/call and always keep us up to date on our listing/selling process. She is not the type of agent who just aim for selling it fast without protecting seller's right. In fact, she stepped up in helping us during negotiation of house offer, and even helped us in negotiation of repair cost requested by the buyer (that was incurred after inspection). She really goes above and beyond! I am very satisfied with the excellent service that Heidi (and her team) has provided. I would highly recommend Heidi to anyone who is looking for real estate agent.
Heidi is the kind of realtor that home sellers dream about! She is tenacious, efficient, and very savvy at marketing your home! We are a military family and moved overseas while our home was on the market. Heidi undersands the difficulties of military life, as she is also part of a military family. She took command on the home front and marketed our home in a brilliant way to complete the mission. Heidi Brautigan is a leader and a reassuring source to have on your side!

My husband and I bought our first house through Paula and Heidi and they helped us find a way better house than we thought we would be able to get! Paula helped us envision a plan to renovate the home to really make it our own dream house - now I don't know that I'll ever want to leave, but I will definitely be using Paula for any future purchase!
Heidi was wonderful! She helped us with the preparations on getting the house on the market and all the way until the final sale of the house. She was very quick to respond to any type of question & explained in great detail the answers to the multiple questions we had to our complete satisfaction. Her marketing had us an offer on the house four days after the listing for the full asking price. The sale was complete in about three & a half weeks. We were left scrambling to find a place to live faster than we thought. That's a nice problem to have. Even after the sale she has kept in touch with us to make sure all is well on our move across the country. We can't recommend Heidi enough!!
Couldn't have found a better realtor. Made buying our first house (sight unseen) smooth and no stress involved. Great knowledge of process involved, negotiating and dealt with all of my craziness. Thank you so much for helping make our dreams come true!
Heidi and her entire team are very wise! They help find a home not just a house. They are patient and explain every detail. We couldn't be happier with the entire experience and it's because we felt we had the best in our corner. I would refer everyone looking to sell, buy or rent to this great team!
When my husband and I decided we needed to be nearer family in central Texas we contacted our mortgage company for pre-approval and the agent recommended Tom Brautigan, a member of the Brautigan Team in Temple, TX. We were 3 hours away from Temple, but I knew when I first called Tom that he and my husband shared so many interests that he would be just the right match to help us find a home. He listened to our needs and his experience with the community and surrounding area determined the homes he showed us in our limited time frame. He kept us informed through emails and phone calls and didnt seem to mind our endless questions. The end result is the perfect home for us in a small pocket community with neighbors who share our senior status and interests and we are closer to family. Thank you, Tom for caring about us and going that extra mile!
Help us find the perfect house! Super nice and extremely helpful. Made the home buying process super easy. Highly recommend her for your real estate needs!!!!
Heidi helped us long before we were ready to sell our house, when we were just getting our feet wet with the idea. And then she was there to help again when we were finally ready! She was a real super hero for us: giving tips on how to stage the house with what we already had, inexpensive fixes to address before they came up, and always being available along the way whenever I had a question. She found us a buyer before we were even officially listed, and made sure to protect our best interest during the selling process. Heidi and her husband Tom, as well as their assistant Josie, are great people to work with and I would recommend them to every person I could, whether they are buying or selling a home in the area.
I was purchasing a home from out of state and she got me all the information I needed about the houses I was to see upon my visit!!! It saved me a lot of time and money!! Very helpful! Oh
Quick to respond and helped us find the perfect house! We had an almost impossible timeline and the Brautigan team made it work. I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a hard working and dependable pair.
Heidi and the Brautigan team represent what the industry needs in its realtors. Heidi was professional, honest, very communicative and informative,and truly catered to our needs. Heidi responded quickly to all of our questions. We felt apprised and satisfied throughout the entire process. Heidi left us feeling like she valued and cared about our home as much as we did. It wasn't just a sale to her. There is a tangible culture of customer service working with her. It was a true pleasure working with Heidi. I would recommend Heidi and the Brautigan team again and again.
Heidi was awesome. She made sure our home buying experience went smoothly. She answered all of our questions and even thought of other things that helped us purchase the right home for us.
Heidi and Tom were fantastic. They stuck with us through all the ups and downs of buying a house and were very thoughtful and knowledgeable whenever something would come up. I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in buying a home. Great experience!!!
We worked primarily with Tom Brautigan, and he took great care of us during our first-time home buying experience. Despite living over an hour away, Tom kept us informed and flexed his schedule to fit ours, selecting and showing us 8 houses to match our parameters before we found the one. Several of our neighbors had poor interactions with our particular builder, but Tom took care of all negotiations, and we never had to talk to the seller once. When we made the decision to close at a time we were out of state, Tom represented us for the final walkthrough and negotiations with the builder. A consummate professional at every step.
Heidi was outstanding in helping me sell my home. Very knowledgeable and respectful to my wishes. Heidi was able to put my house on the market on a Wednesday, had two showings that next Friday and Saturday which both resulted in offers and house was sold that following week for above asking price. Highly recommended!
No words can describe the great job that Heidi did for me. The process was made so simple as I was no longer in the area. No other person I would recommend in the Central Texas area.
Heidi and the Brautigan Home Team are far more than realtors who can sell your home or assist you in finding a property. Heidi and Tom are advisors, helpers and salespeople of the highest caliber. They not only work for you, you feel like you are part of their family. Heidi helped me sell an older property in an "As Is" situation. She had 3 offers within a week, and coached me as to what I could do to make things work better. Through her attention to detail, I got far more than I expected to receive. I would advise anyone looking to buy or sell real estate to contact Heidi at the Brautigan Home Team. You will not be let down in any fashion.
Heidi was amazing. She did everything in her power to find us the perfect home as quickly as possible. When showing us homes, she was very knowledgeable about both the selling and buying process.She made sure we got the best deal on the home we wanted. I would recommend her to any one looking for a home in the area.
Heidi and Tom are amazing! Heidi made the processes of purchasing our home simple. She knew exactly what we were looking for and was very helpful with questions we had about the area. I highly recommend the Brautigan Team!
Heidi recently sold our home in Belton TX. I highly recommend Heidi to anyone in the market to buy or sell a home as she is very knowledgeable with the current market and provides a very professional and personable service. My wife and I are very happy with the real estate service she provided, Heidi took care of everything and we had no issues at all during the contract and closing process.
Heidi did an amazing job selling our home. She communicated frequently, made sure we were comfortable at every step of the process, and has a great, easy going personality. She is well organized and always prepared. Heidi made the selling experience easy! We highly recommend her.
I've worked in Real Estate and agents can be hit or miss. Heidi knocks it out of the park. We used her to list our home and to purchase our new one. She was highly responsive and went above and beyond to help put us in our new home. Could not have asked for a better experience.
We had an exceptional experience with the Brautigan Team! They made sure that every step of both the buying and selling process went smooth and easy for us. We greatly appreciate all of their genuine care and will gladly send friends and family their way. Thanks again!
Heidi did a masterful job of preparing and listing our home. The photos and videos were excellent, her knowledge of the area and pricing of the house were also great.
We would recommend Heidi to anyone. Her marketing skills are second to none. She communicated each step of the process in a very professional manner. Without a doubt the best real estate agent we have ever worked with.
Selling a house can be very stressful process, however, with Heidi, we had nothing to worry about. She was with us every step of the way to explain and ensure that we understood everything. She was very attentive, responsive and reliable. We knew that we were in very capable hands and we recommend her to anyone selling or buying a house. Thanks you Heidi.
Tom and Heidi were a very professional team, helping us find a new home. They made sure we understood the market place. They are very well versed in the different area in which we wanted to look. We started with Heidi, who we meet at a open house, but finished with Tom, when Heidi had to go out of town. There was no difference of professionalism. We would tell anyone interested in listing or buying to call either Heidi or Tom. Raymond L Maynes
Heidi and Tom are awesome! We had an amazing first time home buying experience because of them! We looked at a ton of house and Tom never got discouraged that we would find the perfect one!
