ReviewLouise was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Her communication was fast, clear, and consistent. She was always quick to respond and kept things moving. She also brought a warm and collaborative energy to every interaction, making the whole process feel like a genuine team effort rather than two sides just trying to get to the finish line. She's the kind of person who makes a transaction smoother just by showing up the way she does. I look forward to working with her again!

ReviewI recently sold a property in Leander, Tx where Louise from Limestone Realty represented the buyer. After closing, I was surprised to discover that the buyer never transferred the utilities into their name. More than 30 days after the sale, I was still being billed for buyer's usage. I reached out through the buyers agent assuming it was a simple oversight that could be resolved quickly. Unfortunately, the experience was less than ideal.

ReviewLouise is an amazing real estate agent and knows how to help her clients find a home they love! She is personable, kind, and considerate about all of her clients needs and wants. Louise is great at providing exceptional tips and advice throughout the process of looking and purchasing a house. She is well equipped in sharing her knowledge about the Austin area and is able to provide a lot of information if we had questions. She is great to work with and have appreciated having her as our realtor!

ReviewLouise is top-notch and absolutely the best realtor I've ever encountered. I've been window shopping for homes for about five years, and gone to a few tours here and there. Most of the time, I would encounter realtors with not much knowledge of the property outside of what was provided in the listing, nor how to support my search based on my needs. Louise definitely breaks the barriers of excellence and professionalism, going above and beyond for her clients and helping them find their perfect home and investment. Louise was constantly providing me with all the tips and tricks on what to look for in a home based on my needs and wants, while also listening to my dream situation, and making something hardly possible into reality. She is a fierce negotiator, and will fight for what you want with integrity and fairness for both the seller and buyer. I appreciate her extensive knowledge of the buying process, which made the experience even more delightful, and her recommendations on a lender, home warranty, inspection, and many other useful resources made me feel I had an A-team by my side. If you're looking for a realtor that has your back, Louise is 100% your best choice.

ReviewLouise is quite literally the BEST realtor. Her knowledge is unmatched, her customer service and communication is top tier and she gets the best deals for her clients. She goes above any beyond to make sure issues are handled and questions are answered. It was a pleasure working with her professionally, as the lender for her clients, as well as personally for the purchase of my own home. I would never refer anyone to another agent, because Louise is the best and I wouldnt want to work with anyone else on a transaction. She deserves 10 starts in all areas.

ReviewLouise is your realtor. Dont waste time browsing around on your own or with anyone else. She knows the answers to the questions before you even know the question. She helped us find a home that we can see ourselves in FOREVER. She helped us get into this home that honestly I would not have expected we could have afforded. But because she knew how to work the market and what incentives were realistic, we now have the home of our dreams. She found us a home that hit every single thing I wanted, and with incentives from the seller brought it into a realistic mortgage payment. Seriously- there is WAY more to home buying than the actual price of the home. I thought I knew a lot about real estate, but honestly Louise blew me away each time we talked. She has the foresight to ensure your family will be happy with every aspect of the home too. (Did I know I needed this size yard? No, but now that I have it I can say she is right, its a sanity saver when the kids have energy!) She has a team that will go to the ends of the earth for you. Ive affectionately started calling her aEURoetiger momaEUR? because truly, she is the person you want in your corner!

ReviewLouise was extremely easy to work with! She is a lovely down-to-earth woman and we got along great! She was extremely responsive and, at first, caught me off guard! In my previous RE experience I was accustomed to waiting sometimes hours for a response! Not with Louise! She had a great open line of communication all the way through the process! I would use her again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buying or selling their home!

ReviewLets get down to the important things - Louise sold my home and was under contract in 8 days. That only happened because of Louise. Her guidance and willingness to talk me through every anxious thought and feeling I was having, her ability to explain the selling process clearly, and her reassurance throughout the entire process. Louise went above and beyond when things did go wrong (because its real estate and things WILL go wrong) to correct or negotiate in the situation so that all parties were satisfied with the outcome. If youre considering using Louise, stop considering and start doing.

ReviewLouise was wonderful to work with. She knows the Austin area and the home-buying process very well. I felt like she really had our back during negotiations. She was a really big help when a big hailstorm damaged the roof the night before closing. She helped us get through that chaos, too!

ReviewIt was a pleasure to work with Louise. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about what she was doing, she also took the time to share and teach me throughout the process. Very quick to respond and never settled for anything less than the best for her clients. Having skills and knowledge in two different states, Louise helped making the house hunting process very smooth in such a short turnaround helping me and my family. I would highly recommend her and would most certainly work with her again. Thank you so much Louise, you are the best of the best!

ReviewThis was our first time selling a house so we knew we needed a realtor who would hold our hand and walk us through every step. Louise was amazing and always made herself available to us. We gave her a pretty strict budget of how much we needed to sell for and when we wanted to close by, and she was able to do both. Highly recommend.

ReviewLouise guided us through the process of selling our home through an ever changing market while we were living several hours away. She was constantly involved in looking for new ways to market our home beyond just lowering the listing price and offering seller credits. We completed a remodel as well and Louise certainly has a keen eye for design and helped us pick elements that made our home shine. She really went above and beyond what I expect from a realtor and we cant thank her enough!

ReviewAs a potential first time home buyer, I originally met Louise by randomly clicking on a zillow listing. I am rather introverted and i didn't realize that by clicking on the listing it connected me with an actual human! I was very hesitant to schedule the call however when the phone rang and I answered I immediately thought to myself "oh this is an actual human not a pushy sales robot. I enjoy speaking with her." I met her for coffee. She took time to come meet me at my favorite coffee spot and again she managed to explain the home buying process in easily digestible terms. It felt more like hanging out with a friend than discussing what, I thought, should be a very stressful event. I ended up deciding that I wasn't quite ready to buy yet however I kept in touch with Louise because she's a rad lady (and her kids are ridiculously cute). Cut to about 3 years later and my girlfriend and I were ready to buy however the market was/ nuts. Louise was incredibly helpful in explaining things to us, helping us to put together competitive offers, and was all around just fun to hang out with. She even enjoyed when my girlfriend would sing like a Disney princess, you know, just to really test out each house. We ended up buying our first home so much faster than i had expected and Louise was very helpful, communicative, responsive, and knowledgeable throughout the whole experience. I would, and have recommended her to many friends and will continue to do so.

It was a hot mess and I knew only one person would be able to help!!! I called her up and immediately she was on it! She got me into contact with aEURoeher peopleaEUR? and everything just fell into place. I literally did nothing and she did EVERYTHING!!! Every question answered, every worry consoled. Louise is seriously one of THE HARDEST working woman I know!! She will make sure that you are taken care of all the way through the process!!! Thank you Louise Bell!!

ReviewLouise is absolutely everything you could ask for in a Realtor! She is top level professional while still being easy to talk to. She answered every question we had no matter the time we reached out. She was so fun to work with and helped us secure an over asking price and was able to negotiate every little detail we were hoping for. She is someone who will tell you exactly how it is, and do everything she can to make sure you get what you are after. We cannot recommend her enough, she is the person you want on your team.

ReviewThis is my second time working with Louise, which I think speaks for itself. In a market where buying a home can be frustrating - losing your offer to cash bidders who are paying way over asking - Louise was able to help us secure the home of our dreams at a great price and in a timely fashion. With our lease rapidly coming up, she was able to get us across the line in a matter of a few weeks which speaks to her knowledge and skills. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone and will absolutely use her again in the future.

Her staff were aEURoeJohnny on the SpotaEUR? so I didnt need to guess what step was next or what they needed from me. Louises knowledge, professionalism and patience was more than appreciated. Her negotiating skill as bar none. I am planning on purchasing more properties both commercial as well as residential and will have Louise and her staff by my side.

ReviewAlthough this was my first home purchase and I have little to compare too, I cannot imagine a home buying experience going much better than having Louise as your realtor. I met with Louise after several referrals, with a very picky list of preferences and expecting a 6+ month process before I would be in a home. Louise was not afraid to set baseline expectations of what the current market was likely to give me, but encouraged me every step of the way and built out a personalized plan to get this best case scenario. The first to text, email, or follow up on any question, Louise is always the one taking the initiative. She even made the recommendation to switch lenders when the turnaround timeline of my first one was likely to hold us back, and it turned out the be the best decision we made. We put in one offer, and were closed within two months of that initial conversation. I got the exact house I wanted, first try. In a hot market with limited supply and bid wars above asking price on every house, Louise helped me close on a move-in-ready home, within 20 minutes of Austin, with seller credits, and without sacrificing contingencies. I even got brick exterior, tile flooring, and 90% of the other ridiculous things I was asking for (even down to the kitchen counter tops!) If you're not sold yet, Louise is extremely personable and was conscious of this being my first experience, explaining everything every step along the way, from selecting the right home inspectors to negotiating tactics, and made me fell like an expert by the end of the process.

ReviewAs a first time home buyer, Louises insight and guidance was a tremendous help. She helped me talk through my personal decision points on whether this house was right for me, took the lead in assessing the home's faults, calculating what the back maintenance would cost, and helped negotiate that into the price, and guided me through the loan approvals and close process. I owe a significant amount of gratitude to Louise's support. I happy with my decision to buy this property and happy to have worked with Louise.

ReviewWe enthusiastically recommend Louise to anyone buying or selling a home. As a military family, we have worked with many realtors over the years and Louise has by far been the best! She helped us sell our home in California and we found her to be very knowledgeable, kind, patient and professional. She answered all of our (many) questions very thoroughly and taught us so much about not only selling but buying a home as well, knowledge that will benefit our home transactions in the future. Vetting the buyer is a very important part of the home selling process and she is particularly knowledgeable in this area. She went above and beyond to make sure that both the buyer and the loan company that they were using were suitable. She sold our home quickly and for far above the listing price. She works hard for her clients and is a joy to work with, highly recommended her!

ReviewLouise has made buying a house one of the easiest and smoothest experiences I have been through. We looked through about 15 house before I was ready to give up. She sat down with me over zoom and looked through properties. She is personable and knows how to break down the process so a toddler could understand. Shes knows what she is doing and gets it done without any flaws. EXCEPTIONAL is the only word really needed here.

Review11/10 - that's how I would describe our experience with Louise. We were trying to purchase a property remotely from NY in Austin and she got it done in a super smooth fashion. Right from the first interaction, we knew we were in great hands. Louise has immense knowledge about the local markets, and was able to quickly understand and gauge our needs and drive us towards great neighborhoods and opportunities. In markets that are hot, the realtor can make or break things. Louise was able to advise us and represented our case with the buyer agent and helped us land the deal with our dream property in a SINGLE shot! She is super fast to respond and has the gift of being able to break down the complexities of a real estate transaction into simple terms. Her network came into immense help as well when we were closing. She kept us calm, composed and helped us get over the line. Louise is immense and would recommend her all day every day!

She still resides in CALIFORNIA, and even with the mountain we had to climb with dealing with Opendoor.. She accomplished it with flying colors.. AND I think we closed in ~27 days?! 10/10 recommend her. Even if youre halfway across the country- LOUISE CAN HELP YOU!!

ReviewThis was the 4th time in my life, that I was buying a house, and it was definitely the most rewarding experience. Louise impressed me from the very beginning with her vast knowledge of a real estate in all its aspects. Every question was answered in a prompt and expeditious manner, every situation was handled with high professionalism. She returns phone calls and messages within minutes, her pleasant and friendly personality makes the supposedly stressful process of buying a house actually enjoyable. Having her as your real estate agent adds good karma to your newly purchased home. Highly recommend

ReviewWhat an absolute blessing it was to have Louise as our realtor in this CRAZY 2021 market! We had 3 days... 3 DAYS... to find our dream home in California and put in a bid. We all know how insane the world of home buying is right now and I am so thankful we had Louise in our corner. As we started our journey we quickly realized that we probably weren't going to find our forever home... just our "good enough for now home" which is rather disappointing given the cost of homes in CA. Louise was not to be deterred. We pressed on looking at myriad possible houses. By day 3 we had 3 contenders to place offers on but houses go quick and many people were resorting to unethical practices to gain advantage. Louise was able to hold true to her upstanding ethics and GOT US A HOUSE! Not only did she successfully navigate these trying waters but she managed to get us a FOREVER home! This was truly miraculous and we cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Louise. She is a true professional and definitely knows her stuff.

ReviewBeing a first time home buyer my fiance and I were very overwhelmed with the entire process. We had talked to a few other agents before crossing paths with Louise. As soon as we spoke to her we knew she was the perfect agent for us! She called us to explain the process of buying a home and all the steps we would need to take, and didn't make us feel dumb for not knowing some of the process. Once we were approved for a loan she jumped in sending us houses and setting up any tour we wanted! It took us a few houses to finally get an offer accepted but she kept our spirits positive and ended up getting us our dream home! We love how up front and honest Louise is and was always spot on with what we should offer. She really knew a lot about the market and neighborhoods we were looking at. We would recommend her to anyone we know, we can't say enough positive things about her! She is always looking out for her clients!

ReviewSo, I don't feel that my case was a standard case. I was stationed in England for almost 4 years and planned on buying a home in the US upon my return. I am also a first time home buyer and the thought of returning and trying to get into a place quickly (not keen on moving again after a short time here) was a bit daunting. Being a first time buyer, I was also not warm to the idea of buying a house I was not able to see first... or explore the area to know what I was getting. I was not able to come out and explore the area before moving due to the current COVID situation. Louise has the patience of a Saint. I am not an easy client to work with as I am a bit picky and especially with a big purchase such as a house. I dragged her around during the peak of the home buying season in this fierce market, during the peak California summer heat, and during this COVID situation to crawl around many houses until I was satisfied to know what to look for and make a decision once the right one came available. Early on and along the way, it became very clear she was very knowledgeable on the market and all aspects of a home purchase (and I would bet the same would be true for selling as well). Louise not only proved why realtors exist but also why YOU need a good one that you can trust and know will have your back. I feel like there is probably zero chance to get everything right, especially on a first home purchase. But I also feel like we came as close to getting it all correct as we possibly could. As I sit in MY house now typing this, I have no problem saying I am extremely happy with the results and have no problem recommending her or her services to anyone in the real estate market. Thank you for the awesome work!

ReviewAs a first time seller, I am so thankful that Louise was my agent. She made the process seem so effortless compared to what I was expecting and I never questioned that she always had my best interest at heart. After listing my house, we received 17 offers within 48 hoursaEUR| which was pretty mind-blowing. Louise broke everything down for me, making it easy to choose which candidates to consider and I could not be happier with the outcome.

ReviewLet me start by saying I was definitely not the easiest client. I had no specific area I was looking in just a few, maybe more than a few ??, specific must and must not haves in the home I wanted to purchase. Louise created a portal for me to view at my leisure. She made herself available to arrange and meet me at least 10 different homes over the past few months. All this stretching into the Covid restrictions. She made several offers and we went through one very painful almost purchase that fell through not r/t anything either of us could control, which in hindsight was a blessing.I am now closing on a home that is as close to perfect for my wants/needs as I could imagine. She held my hand and answered every single question I had and there were many! Highly recommended!

ReviewI cant say enough good things about Louise!! Weve been searching for a home since January and through all the ups and downs that have led us to finally closing on a home in a couple week, Louise has been such a constant source of knowledge and support. What we love the most about Louise is how she patiently explained the entire process for us, and taught us the nuances of realty along the way - we could ask any question and she always gave us a rapid, in-depth response. We were able to learn so much from her! Louise went to bat for us every time we fell in love with a home and she fearlessly advocated for our family - when things didnt work out with a couple properties, she grieved with us. Louise is AWESOME and we recommend her a million times over. Thanks for everything Louise!!
