It is with pleasure and conviction that I recommend the real estate services of Laura Olesen. My husband and I worked with Laura for over two years during the process of finding and buying a condo in Austin. The situation was somewhat complicated as we lived in London and the property we’d chosen wasn’t yet built. To make it more so, the project changed hands during development and there were times when my husband and I thought it wasn’t going to happen. Fortunately, Laura never gave up, investing huge amounts of time and energy into seeing it through and bringing the disjointed elements together. Laura was always professional, responsive and simply a pleasure throughout the entire experience. We have worked with real estate agents in New York, Los Angeles and London but Laura remains the most competent of the lot. – Ryan
It didn’t take long for me to start recommending Laura to friends and colleagues. She’s personable and reliable, patient and fun. She knows all about Austin’s coolest spots and this being Austin, there’s a lot of those. – Ben
Laura has an extensive understanding of the downtown Austin real estate market. I believe this knowledge, combined with her professionalism, integrity, willingness to go the extra mile and ability to immediately inspire trust explain her success in marketing properties for me. – Val
Laura is always on your side as you work toward getting the home you want! She helped us through a difficult condo buy. Every day was a new problem and she always had a solution or was working on our behalf to understand how things could be resolved. Laura has continued to check in and make sure that things are going well for us even though our documents were signed almost one year ago. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a realtor. – Vicki
I’ve known Laura professionally for about three years and recently used her as a realtor to purchase a house. My criteria was to get to know the market for a while before purchasing. She spent about six months patiently educating me on the market and showing me many houses. When the time came to purchase she was invaluable in guiding me through the process. I would gladly use her again and highly recommend her to anyone who appreciates a professional, thorough and thoughtful approach to real estate. – Rob
Laura helped us find a condo in downtown Austin that was a great value and is a pleasure to live in. She was easy to work with and was very helpful. – Jeanne
My wife and I highly recommend Laura Olesen, also known around Austin proper through her moniker, “Ole”. We were first time homebuyers and Ole successfully helped us close on the home of our dreams in East Austin in May of 2010. Ole is an intelligent Realtor, receiving degrees from Stanford University and a masters MBA degree from UT’s McComb’s School of Business. Throughout our three-month home search, Ole clearly and effectively conveyed to us her knowledge of trends, comparables and general real estate expertise of the numerous different Austin neighborhoods and southeast/central regions. Bottom line: Ole worked extremely hard for us during the three months locating our home. Ole was patient, prompt in communication, and was very enjoyable to work with. If you are looking for a home and a Realtor with specialization in central, south and east Austin, we recommend Laura Oleson aka “Ole”. – Kris B and Andrea B
