Being a Realtor myself, I don't often review other Realtors, but I was so impressed working with Ben that I wanted to share my experience. His prompt communication, excellent follow-through and creative problem-solving gave his clients an advantage that other buyers didn't have in a competitive situation. Since every buying situation in Austin seems to be highly competitive now, you need a Realtor that gives you the best chance to succeed, and Ben does that and more. Very highly recommended!

Working with Ben to purchase our first home was the best choice we could have made. The Austin market is crazy competitive and the pandemic made it that much more unpredictable, but Ben’s patience, responsiveness, and expertise (and sense of humor when needed!) made the entire process so much better. His background as a home builder is invaluable especially when looking at a home that needs renovation. I appreciate that Ben took the time to explain all the complexities of the process in a way that helped us make the most informed decision. From the first house we toured to the closing day and beyond, Ben was a true advocate for us as buyers.

When I wanted to purchase my first home, I reached out to Ben after a coworker highly recommended him based on his own experience.and I'm glad I did! After providing a few details on what I was looking for in a home Ben provided me a set of potential properties to review. After I narrowed them down we started visiting the properties. He helped point out several potential red flags with the state of some properties, helped me understand potential costs of renovations, and identified existing improvements to the properties that added value to them. That's one of the great things about Ben, you not only get a realtor but also someone very knowledgeable about construction and renovation.

After identifying a property, Ben was extremely helpful in navigating the purchasing process. From recommending a lender to assisting with the home walkthroughs he is the expert I needed. Ben responded quickly via email and text and provided electronic signature options for any documents. This really sped things up and kept everything moving beautifully.

Ben, thanks for all your help. I'll definitely be reaching out for advice/recommendations as time goes on.and if you're in my area let me know we can grab some more bbq!

As a first time buyer, teaming with an agent who was versed in the city and recommended by personal contacts was key.

I met with several agents prior to moving forward on my house-hunting journey with Ben. I had strong recommendations for all the folks I met with, but it came down to Ben’s commitment to the buyer and experience in the Austin market I viewed as true (and now proven!) differentiators.

The beginning of my search was a blank slate. Deciphering which part of the city down what type of house down you’re looking for are all big decisions that can be an enjoyable yet laborious process.

Ben was willing to support this search without pressure for more than 10 months, placing six offers and eventually leading to my new home.

His background as a builder was an incredibly invaluable part of the process as well as his knowledge of the city areas, which is undoubtedly unmatched.

Ben goes well beyond the sale of a house, helping to ensure you find your ‘perfect’ home. I‘ll continue to recommend his services whenever possible, especially for the first time buyer.

I wish you the best of luck in your home search and rest assured you’ll need less of it with Ben on your side!

We worked with Ben on a "move up" and it was a great experience! He was really familiar with both areas (selling in RR/Pflugerville and buying in S Austin). He was able to coach us on how to make our home ready for sale, and knew what would make our offer attractive in the super competitive buying landscape. This was all at the beginning of the covid pandemic, which added an additional layer of complexity. I highly recommend Ben and will use him when it comes time to buy another property!

Ben puts the real in real estate. He was awesome to work with, knowledgeable, always available, and I ended up landing my dream home. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to make the journey a little less stressful.

I have worked with Ben in different facets of real estate. He assisted me in renting out a home as well as selling one.

He was professional, and very knowledgeable about his field. He went above and beyond to help me sell a home when I was out of state.

I have only positive things to say about Ben and his work ethic, and his willingness to go the extra mile to assist his clients.

I would recommend Ben to absolutely everyone. My partner and I went into the house search knowing absolutely nothing about anything and he made the entire process easy & stress-free. He's a fantastic listener and explains the tricky stuff with a deep understanding and a wealth of insider knowledge. He knew what to look out for when we didn't and we always felt he had our best interests at top-of-mind. He wasn't afraid to speak his mind when we asked for his opinion on something - no BS. More than that, he's just a super great guy you'll love spending time with (and with the house hunt, that can be a lot of time!). If we texted him on Friday about a house, we were out looking at it bright and early the next morning or whenever we wanted. Now that we've closed on our new home, I won't miss house hunting- but I will miss hanging with Ben!

We feel SO lucky to know Ben. Why? Because he's not just a fantastic realtor, he's a truly wonderful guy. Ben was with us every single step of the way, from the first email to to closing day and beyond - he literally just walked me through an electrical issue & recommend an electrician 2 weeks AFTER we moved into the house he helped us find. Ben is incredibly knowledgeable, both in regards to the housing market and in owning a home - he used to be a builder, so he pointed out every little thing that might become an issue (and even advised us against a few homes that would've been a lot more trouble than they were worth). I truly don't think there's a better realtor than Ben for ANY first-time homebuyer, and when the day comes, we'll absolutely be calling him for our next home, too:)

Ben was amazing to work with in finding a home in the crazy Austin market. He is a wealth of knowledge in seeing the potential in a home and helped us avoid some money pits along the way too. Ben is super responsive, timely and professional. Highly, highly recommend Ben for any real estate needs!

Ben was an absolute maven at getting me set up with my first home purchase. He was patient, authentic, knowledgeable and just an overall pleasant guy to go through the home-buying process with. The best part of working with Ben is that he brings his construction experience and own home-owning/purchasing experience to give you a well-rounded perspective of a property. Along with helping you find a new home, Ben also has been a valuable resource when I have questions around homeownership or any other property related issue. Highly, highly recommend using Ben to navigate the maze that is the Austin realty market.

Could not be happier with our experience! Ben helped my wife and I buy our first home, he was patient, knowledgeable, and consistently went above and beyond our expectations. Ben was constantly available and replied quickly, whether it was answering the same question for a 4th time, providing a recommendation or estimation, or just talking us through process.

Ben brings years of experience in the industry as a whole, a wide network of resources, an impressive work ethic and most importantly, a sincere desire to help you.

I will be calling Ben when we get ready to sale, when we look to buy again and recommend him to anyone that asks. The Austin market is competitive, having a talented Realtor in your corner is essential.

Ben is THE MAN! Could not have asked for a better experience! We were referred by a mutual friend and he immediately set to work finding us a house on short time frame. He delivered and it was a pleasure to work with the whole way through. We would recommend Ben in a heartbeat and would use him again without hesitation!

Here's why Ben is the best:
-Construction background and deep experience played an invaluable role in vetting the houses early on.
-Tremendous knowledge of the Austin market and nuances therein.
-He has a great personality, super charismatic, funny, and generally fun to work with.
-Highly accommodative. Available anytime and would give the shirt off his back.
-Extremely professional and constantly goes above and beyond what is expected.

I highly recommend Ben! He was great at showing me different parts of Austin and it’s surrounding areas! Extremely patient and informative which I so appreciated being an Austin newbie. Also recommended someone to paint my new place and it looks amazing. Thanks Ben!

As a mortgage loan officer I have an opportunity to work with many different realtors. Each purchase that I have closed with Ben has been an extremely smooth process. He is very organized and proactive in handling the contract and all the necessary paperwork, which makes my job easier. I more so appreciate the fact that he is always looking out for the interests of his customers and is not just about making the sale. When looking for a realtor who will guard your interests, take away unnecessary stress and ensuring that you are receiving your best deal, Ben Woolfolk is your man.

Ben was amazing and exceeded expectations on every level. His communication is fantastic and timely. He was always on time. He was knowledgeable in so many areas of purchasing a home. He was highly recommended to us I would recommend him hands down to anyone looking for a house. Thanks Ben!

Ben came to us through a recommendation and we will be recommending him to our family and friends as well. He's honest, dependable, and knowledgeable. We have closed on our house but he has continued to help us with our home improvements. Give him a call, you won't be disappointed!

Can't say enough great things about Ben! The level of empathy to the situations we had throughout this process really set him apart from others. He relocated my mom to Austin from across the country and things could not have gone smoother. I would highly recommend Ben to those I love.

As a Veteran, buying a home can be challenging. Ben provided the support and knowledge that enabled me to buy my home. I really appreciated his time, effort, advice, and excellent service in helping me acquire my home. Thank you, Ben!

Ben was awesome to work with. He was there for everything we needed and was always quick to respond. His knowledge and consistency was extremely helpful throughout our property search. If you're looking for an agent that pays attention to the details and truly cares about the clients needs, look no further. Highly recommend!
