Kelsey bates how do I start! She was truly interested in my needs and location. She is truly the gem in the ocean that I needed to help me find a place for me and my son. I was not the easiest person to please and work with I was very wishy washy and not certain about a couple places but Kelsey learned quick what me and my son needed. We needed a place close to his school and In a area we desired. She fought hard to make this happen for us. I can not think her enough because I knew it was almost impossible for someone like me with no rental history, bad credit, criminal history, and just bad luck! She made this home possible for us and I feel I owe her my life. No matter what day it was either Wednesday Friday Saturday or Sunday she was there to answer my questions even on a holiday or on a trip to surprise her mom she was always a text away to answer any questions. Not to mention she had a bunch of other people she was helping to find a place I mean her car got wrecked and she still met up with me to look at places. Who does that!?. She's truly a gem and idk how I can ever thank her enough for helping me and my son she really goes hard for her clients and if you don't choose Kelsey I'll just say good luck because Kelsey really is the one who will do what it takes for your need! I honestly feel it was more personal for her as it was for me to live in the home she fought for me. Thank you Kelsey you really did your thing and made my dream happen!

I worked with Kelsey and couldn’t have had a better experience. I needed to relocate To Austin suddenly which put me in a situation where I was forced to lease ‘sight unseen’ . This made me VERY uncomfortable but Once I reached out to Kelsey, she eased nearly every one of my concerns. Here are just a few reasons why I’m so impressed with the service I received: - Kelsey took my call after work hours and explained exactly what I needed to do start this process - Once I picked my top 3 properties, Kelsey personally went to each one and sent me videos of the property and pointed out anything unusual or unique about the listing - When I settled on a property that I wanted to lease, I told Kelsey and she was able to get an application submitted almost immediately! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience working with Kelsey and Pride of Texas. To Anyone looking for knowledgeable, professional, and friendly realtors in the Austin area. I would highly recommend Making Pride of Texas your first call!

Kelsey is the best realtor that I have ever worked with. We are a military family that has had to move every 2-3 years. I have never had someone work so hard to help us find a home. My husband is deployed and I am having to do this move on my own. I needed to find a home without being in the area. If I had any questions she answered them immediately and even did a virtual walk through with me. She saved me a trip to Texas and set my mind at ease about our move. She showed me she really cares about us like we are her family. We have already signed the lease, received the keys and she still checks in on us to see how we are doing. You do not find that very often in her profession. When we decide to buy a house in the next few years she will definitely be the first one we call.

If you're a renter like me and absolutely dread hunting for a new place, you need to contact Kelsey Bates *immediately*. You might be asking: "why do I need a realtor if I'm renting?" To which I respond: it costs you nothing and you get an incredibly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable partner with very deep local knowledge. It's kind of a big deal, especially if you're coming in from out of town. And I'm not sure how she does it but she'll give your unique situation the full undivided attention it deserves. All in all, Kelsey has made the process painless and dare I say fun. When it comes time to buy a home, she'll be the one I call.

The talent here is amazing! They make the stressful process of finding a new home, effortless. Kelsey has worked with me for over 3 years in my time in Austin and I'm sad to not have written a review sooner. Any doubt I have she's calms it down...knows my style and cuts to the chase so I don't waste away time trying to re figure out what I really want. She has amazing rapport with complexes and landlords throughout the Austin area and really simplified quite a few of my next moves. Highly recommended and VERY HAPPY every time Kelsey finds me a new home to continue the next chapter of my journey.

Wow, Kelsey setup up a search with everything I was looking for and she did it 3 months ahead of my move out date. I was notified with any and everything that fit my criteria, making my search quick and painless . When I found the perfect spot, Kelsey met me at the property that day to show it. That afternoon she took the time to help me lock in the lease and even convinced the current tenant to sell me their $1200 new washer/dryer for $200- showing her negotiating skills. Amazing service from a great person. Highly recommend contacting her for all your real estate needs.

If you read any of these reviews, you already know this.... but Kelsey is absolutely fantastic and a pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, kind, prompt and did absolutely everything in her power to help us find the best home possible. After touring a couple of properties and getting to know us, she actually took us to a new spot that wasn't on our radar yet — we've been there for almost six months now, and couldn't be happier! Since then, we've recommended Kelsey to three people who have all had similarly wonderful experiences.

KELSEY was a life saver!! She made me feel like family & always went above My expectations. She made my move way easier. And so happy I found her. I moved from out state and was not able to see the property. She went there for me took video and pictures... made sure my new house was clean before I got there. IF IT WAS NOT FOR KELSEY IM NOT SURE I WOULD OF FOUND THIS HOUSE. She helped Me get the right house for me and My new born. THANK GOD for her and her patience with me This company is so lucky to have her.

Kelsey Bates is hands down the best realtor I have ever worked with. I encountered a very unusual situation during my application process. It appeared that the deal was going to fall through, but she came in and saved it. She is extremely prompt in her replies, makes herself extremely available to her clients, and is extremely dedicated to them as well. If you are looking for a realtor in Austin, please do yourself a favor and reach out to her. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Thanks again Kelsey.

Kelsey is amazing! Best realtor I have ever used. I found an ad for an apartment that my boyfriend and I liked. I emailed her about the apartment and she responded almost immediately. We jumped on a phone call and she gave me some other properties in our price range and in the area we were looking for! And the added bonus: Kelsey and I are neighbors. Talking to her felt like we’ve been best friends forever. She was the best. And I will refer her and use her myself for years to come. Thank you, Kelsey!

Kelsey Bates is hands down the best realtor Austin has to offer! She was available every time I needed her and was available late and into the weekends. My experience with signing a house was a strange one, and I would have never been able to navigate the market without her. She helped me get exactly what I needed and what was best for me. She even helped me find a short term lease until my perfect home was ready. Stop looking at reviews and give her a call. You won't need anyone else.

Kelsey is a life saver. I am relocating to Austin. For 2 months Kelsey searched high and low for a place for me, always stayed in contact and found the best deals and location. Kelsey will instantly become a actual friend. I had one day to go to Austin and find a new place to call home. With everything being closed right now she went out and sent me tons of virtual tours, she went above and beyond. I’m happy she found me the perfect place! (And a she is my first new friend in Austin!)

Kelsey Bates is THE best realtor I’ve ever worked with and I am in the industry. She’s super knowledgeable and responsive and listens to exactly what you need and want and will go out and get it for you. Most realtors won’t give you the time of day for a rental much less go above and beyond but she does! We found a great place for a great deal we wouldn’t have found or negotiated for ourselves. She’s helped me twice now! When I buy in the next year I’ll be buying with her.

Mary-Alison is amazing! She gave me a great list of places that worked within my budget and other considerations that made me feel like she truly listened to my needs. She was precise, on task, and really made this process more fun than it should have been. After our tour, she was prompt with links to applications, informative about fees and details depending on the lease. This has probably one of the smoothest searches I've experienced since I've moved to Austin!

Best experience ever. I had to move pretty urgently / cross country and needed to find a furnished, short term rental (nearly impossible!). Kelsey saved the day. She found me the perfect spot (quickly) and held my hand through the entire process making it completely seamless. She gave me info on the neighborhood, hooked me up with tips and tricks and was just all around the greatest. If you are looking to rent or buy - I'd 100% reach out to Kelsey!

Kelsey Bates was the sweetest and most helpful realtor!! We were moving to Texas from out of town and she made the process easy and stress free. We found the best house for the three of us and we absolutely love it. She was very quick and responsive. She gave the best advice about different neighborhoods since we had no knowledge about the area. She even took me to a work our class once we arrived. Great experience and would definitely recommend!

Kelsey Bates was recommended to me and my partner by friends after she helped them find a rental property. She did not disappoint and helped us find a great place too! She is very quick when responding and was happy to work within our schedules and preferred communication methods. Very nice, informative, and prompt both in person and when interacting virtually. I will definitely be recommending her to friends moving in the Austin area!

I was very pleased, impressed and extremely grateful for Kelsey’s expertise in helping me find the best apartment for me. She responded promptly and kept me informed of the process throughout the search. And there is no doubt I would not have landed in the gorgeous apartment I have now for the deal I got in the time frame I needed without her making clutch last minute phone calls in my moment of need. She was a joy to work with!

We worked with Brittany Diaz-Perez, she got us into our current leased home and she will definitely be our go to girl when we make a big purchase! She went above and beyond in helping us as we had just a few weeks to find a new home. She was professional, fast and hands down one of the nicest persons I've met. We were very fortunate to have worked with her. I would highly recommend and continue using Brittany in the future!

Kelsey was so helpful in finding a new place for me to rent, and quickly too. She is knowledgeable, attentive, communicative, and I felt like she was really looking out for me when going through the listings and flagging things I missed. And on top of it all, she is so friendly and helped keep things light and less stressful. I've already recommended her to a colleague and my brother. 100% happy with working with Kelsey.

My fiancée and I are getting ready to move to Austin and Kelsey was so helpful! She contacted me months back when we first began to look for apartments and was in contact the whole time (while never being aggressive or annoying). She helped us set up an MLS search with our wants and needs and while we eventually found a place through mutual friends, we will absolutely be calling Kelsey when it comes time to move or buy!

I was having a hard time finding a rental due to the size of my dog. Kelsey Bates went above and beyond to help me find a home. She was patient and kind and very understanding of my circumstances. I am so thankful for her and everything she did for me. It was not an easy road and she never gave up. In fact, she tried that much harder. If I ever move again I truly hope to be able to work with her again.

Kelsey Bates is so awesome to work with. I had an especially stressful and rushed move from San Francisco to Austin during the COVID pandemic. She was knowledgable, responsive, helpful and went out of her way to make my transition as smooth as possible. I changed plans several times and she was amazing at adapting and responding to whatever the new situation was. I can't recommend her highly enough.

We had almost lost hope in finding a good home during a hectic time. Kelsey was quick to respond and met up with us to do a showing THAT DAY! I was so relived when she immediately knew what we needed and was so helpful in making sure we get the best home possible. I will be using Kelsey for a lifetime, best realtor in Austin!

Kelsey was so great to work with! If you’re new to Austin it’s easy to get overwhelmed with the crazy housing/renting market coupled with learning which neighborhood is best for you, but Kelsey was able to make the daunting task fun and easy! She’s real and honest, two things I very much appreciated! ☺️ Thank you, Kelsey!!❤️

Worked with Kelsey Bates to find a great place in Austin. She did a fantastic job setting up showings and suggesting places based on my housing criteria. She turned the hassle of finding a rental into a great and productive time. Absolutely would go through Pride of Texas again and request Kelsey for my Realtor.

Kelsey Bates has been the greatest most patient Realtor I’ve met, while working with me out of state and my son in state she was able to satisfy our want in a home. She was very professional but yet very friendly and concerned. Look for Kelsey when looking for a place. Yeah !! GO Kelsey you Rock!! Fannie & Ray

Kelsey is very dedicated to taking care of of her clients and making sure they get the best deal. She negotiated to get me two months of rent free during renovations instead of one they initially offered on a thirteen month lease. I would recommend her to anyone I know. She really goes to bat for her clients.

Kelsey is a gem. Not only is she super professional she makes you feel like you are family and has your best interest. I had no idea where to start and she knew all the areas of town and made the home buying process not only easy but FUN. We celebrated after with drinks and now I consider her a friend.

Enrique was very helpful in helping me find the perfect place. He was super responsive and was very patient when helping me find the perfect home. I am new to the area I'm moving to and did not know where to begin. Enrique eased the stress of finding an apartment. 10/10 recommend :)

Kelsey is the best real estate professional I’ve ever worked with. She knows every great property in detail, has relationships with folks all over, and was lightning quick in responding. In less than two days she helped me relocate to Austin from New York. Work with her if you can!

If I could leave 10/5 stars I would. Kelsey has went above and beyond for my family as we looked for a home to lease. You can really tell how much she cares about her clients. When it comes time to buy our first home I will 100% be going to her. Thank you thank you Kelsey!!!

Kelsey was so professional.... always quick to respond. Her and her assistant were so helpful during my rental search journey. I highly recommend working with Kelsey she is smart and FUNNY. She really goes out of her way to make you feel like you are an important client.

Kelsey Bates was so incredibly helpful and responsive in our search to find a rental home! She worked with us, picked up every phone call, and went above and beyond to help us find a lovely house! We would recommend her to anyone in Austin looking for a place to live!

Kelsey Bates is quick and responsive to help even on her Birthday! She provided excellent service with insightful information about the surrounding area. I would recommend Kelsey to anyone relocating to the greater Austin area! Thank You Pride of Texas Real Estate!

Kelsey was a shark. She was able to suggest a lender that found us a zero down first time home owner program. After inspections she went to bat and the sellers paid all of our closing costs. If you want an excellent Realtor Kelsey is who you want to work with!!

Kelsey Bates is by far the most amazing realtor she made what we thought was impossible possible for my family. She was so caring and made finding a new home with all of our obstacles the most amazing experience thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!

Kelsey Bates was amazing to work with. She helped make my rental experience in Austin efficient and seamless. Kelsey's level of communication was fantastic and it put me at ease while transitioning to a new neighborhood.

Kelsey's been great to work with from the moment she picked up the phone. She'd even work late into the night. The Austin housing inventory is really low right now, but she found a great place for me within my budget.

Kelsey Bates is an outstanding realtor. She helped me and my roommate Christian find an awesome place. If you are in the Austin area trying to rent an apartment/house, definitely reach out to Kelsey she is the best.

I worked with Kelsey and she was amazing. She found us places we never could have found on our own, took great videos to help us make a decision from New York, and helped us through the process. Thank you Kelsey!
