Testimonials

Dayne Damme was a referral from a friend and I feel like I hit the jackpot. Dayne initially met with me to get my specs and requests and he put together a weekly listing that was auto-emailed to me. I was looking for a house in Austin while living in DC, so it made it nice to get the list. But then the real stuff started. We narrowed it to 19 homes (I know, extreme) and I had 1 day in ATX to look at them. And we did. Dayne was the ultimate trooper. And he was super prepared for each home visit with paperwork, comps, and a detailed schedule. Ultimately fell in love with one of them and Dayne helped through the buying process. Then he earned his 6th, 7th, and 8th star. I was not in town and he checked in on the house, made sure it was in good condition, worked with the inspection people, the builders, etc. to make sure the house was all ready for me. He even was a good go-between to get it professionally cleaned and painted for me. If you don't use Dayne, you are missing out. Best in the business!

Moving from Germany to Austin in the midst of pandemic was no small feat. The Giles Group, especially our agent Matt Richard, was a tremendous help during this process. From virtual walk-throughs to help finding a temporary rental, Matt was our boots on the ground in Austin. When our new construction was finally ready, Matt was there to handle all of the contracting and logistics making the process stress-free (and joyful!) for all. He's a great guy and we are grateful for all his help. Highly recommend the Giles Group!

The Giles Group is absolutely the hardest working and professional bunch I've ever worked with. Wade and his team represented us as the buyer and the seller. The team was quick to understand the mission and moved mountains to make our house-dreams come through within our timeframe. Also worth mentioning - they're fun to work with! The Giles Group joie de vivre oozes in everything they do, and it really rubs off. I never thought buying and selling would be so easy and enjoyable. Thank you. p.s. they did such a good job getting us into the *right* home that I'm a little sad I wont be working with them anytime soon.

This is such an AMAZING team! I worked mainly with Wade and Jessica and they were so kind, professional, and knowledgeable about how to best market and sell my home. We ended up receiving a full ask offer! I received many updates throughout the process and the team was always quick to answer any questions I had throughout (and I had many :D). I also absolutely love Wade's pup Bill and the beautiful and creative marketing video they put together of my house with Bill in it. I highly recommend The Giles Group for any real estate transactions and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Vanessa and The Giles Group were incredible to work with. Moving from out of state made it impossible to search in person, especially with the crazy Austin market. Vanessa went out of her ways to ensure we secured the perfect home. Searching for a home sight unseen requires a ton of trust in your real estate agent. From day one, I trusted Vanessa's abilities, communication and knowledge of the market. Shout out to Matt who also stepped in when needed. The Giles Group is the true definition of a team! Thank you for everything!!!

We had a pheromonal experience with the Giles Group, Wade and his team greatly reduced the amount the stress that typically comes with selling a house. If you're looking to buy or sell a house in or around Austin, TX then look no further!

Wade and his team are the best and such a pleasure to work with!!

Wade and his team over achieved throughout the process on both the buy and the sale of our homes.

Wade accepted a very special property to us and not only sold it quickly but sold it to a wonderful family that we know will care and love this property as much as we have. Wade and his team are consummate professionals taking care of all of the details. There is nothing left to say the Giles group is exceptional!

Wade and his team are incredibly helpful and great to work with. It really felt like we were a team. They staged the house beautifully and it sold quickly. Special shoutout to Jess for being so responsive!

We couldn’t be happier to recommend The Giles Group. Being out of state buyers, it was important for us to find the right team to work with. A team that had strong market expertise, was high touch, and would help us navigate the home buying process being thousands of miles away. Enter Wade Giles and The Giles Group. From our first interaction with them, it was clear that they would meet all of our needs and then some. We were only in town for a limited period of time and Wade (on a holiday weekend no less), showed us over 30 homes in 2 days. He was helpful in giving us good market/neighborhood insights for houses we were looking at and armed us with what we needed to make our decision. Jess has also been an absolute light in navigating through all the nuances that go into a home purchase. She’s been incredibly responsive and highly communicative. She also helped with vendor recommendations and coordinated walkthroughs for us while we were still out of state, which was an absolute saving grace for us. Home buying can be a daunting process but with the right team like the Giles Group, it really doesn't have to be. Thank you so much for getting us home!

Buying a home is a big deal, especially when you're buying your first ever home! And working with Dayne made it such an enjoyable experience! He is genuinely a kind soul and will help you find your perfect home.

I loved working with Jess! She stayed on top of everything for me. When I had a quick question, she responded quickly. She made sure things moved along in a timely manner. She was wonderful in reminding me of things that slipped my mind but she pretty much took care of everything for me! I highly recommend this group and will definitely use them again when purchasing another home in the future.

Wade is simply the best! With the Austin real estate market as hot as it is right now, I thought it would be incredibly difficult to secure our dream property. Wade and his team are like having an unfair advantage.

Wade, thank you so much for all of your efforts and advice with regard to this sale. could not have made this happen without you. Paul was totally correct with his referral. Thank you again.

We could not have picked a better group of realtors than The Giles Group. From the first introduction call with Wade to the closing on our new house, we were completely taken care of. Wade and Vanessa actually made house hunting enjoyable even in the impossibly difficult housing market in Austin. They were able to source an amazing, off market home that check all of our boxes and then some. The entire team is made up of good-hearted, honest, caring, transparent, and hard working people that will inevitably become great friends. Our 2 year old son James immediately took to Wade and Vanessa, even reaching out to Wade for him to hold him the first time they met, which says a lot considering he is a covid baby and is very guarded. Christine made the closing process a breeze by bringing great vibes and order to the chaos! We could not recommend Wade and The Giles Group enough!

Wade was absolutely amazing to work with! I needed to move quickly and from out of state, and he was a dream broker who made things happen even, when I was not available to be there in person. He was incredibly informative and efficient. The first time we spoke, he talked to me for over an hour to help me understand the market and to get a feel for my preferences. Within a week I was under contract on my first offer, and I closed three weeks later. I couldn't believe how smoothly it went, and he also made the process really fun and enjoyable along the way. I loved working with him and could not be happier with the experience. I would work with the entire team again in a heartbeat and can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much, Wade, for making it happen--you are the best!

I have bought and sold a lot of real estate. Wade and his team are some of the best in the business. Working with the Giles Group felt fun even in an overwhelming market.

Wade, Vanessa, Matt, and team were fantastic! Beyond expectations. It was a smooth, fast home buying experience.

Wade and his team provide a premium experience through the real estate process. Whether it's walking you through logistics or having deep relationships, they truly are amazing!

It was a pleasure working with Wade and Vanessa. Excellent communication with the entire team.

First class team that made our home buying experience seamless and easy.

Wade and his team are the best. I felt heard and advocated for from start to finish and am walking away with a new house and a new set of friends. Thanks, Wade, Matt, Christine and Vanessa!

Love Wade and his team! They could not have been more helpful and patient throughout the process and in a very competitive market. Got us our house in a multiple bids situation and we are forever grateful!

Wade and Christine went above and beyond in helping us find the perfect place to raise our family. Couldn't be more thankful for their support and guidance.

Best customer-centric experience I've ever had, and we haven't even sold our current home yet! Wade, Matt, Vanessa, and Christine have been overly communicative every step of the way during our home-buying process. They understand the intense emotional (and financial!) decisions that come with this process and are incredibly empathetic. We feel so lucky to list our current home with Wade and his team as we settle into our beautiful NEW home in our dream neighborhood!

The absolute best customer service we have experienced in any industry. Wade and his team are a class above and my wife and I feel extremely lucky to have worked with them to buy our dream house. They work extremely hard and really care about their clients - it seems like it is more than just a job to them. They are proactive, have great real estate knowledge, are extremely responsive and always kept us informed on any developments, even when they were out of town on a hard earned vacation! They have become friends to us and we would recommend using Wade and his team to everyone.

We worked with Matt and ended up finding a dream house! Matt was very professional, responsive and knowledgeable. Without him we wouldn't have been able to navigate the current market. He was always available when we needed him and gave us valuable information when it came to writing up our offer. It's tricky to be a potential buyer in today's market and I'm thankful that we had Matt to help us. In many cases buyers are forced to try to compete with all-cash, etc. and Matt made sure that we were well educated on what our options were and what the implications of those options were. I couldn't recommend Matt enough!

Wade exceeded lofty expectations.

Impeccable attention to detail, transparent, punctual communication and ensuring the transaction closed made for a world class experience with Wade Giles. Working with Wade and his team was a great experience and I look forward to any opportunity to do so again in the future.

We have nothing but incredible things to say about our experience working with Wade and Team Wade. Wade, Christine and Matt made our entire home buying process as seamless and easy as possible; especially during an incredibly insane market. From the day we kicked off our "wish list" conversation, to beginning our home search, to the moment our offer was accepted was a total of 72 hours! Wade didn't think twice about working late on a Friday night to get our offer in, and he really went the extra mile for us. Wade's knowledge of the Austin market and his stellar relationships made it an easy decision to choose him to be our realtor. His personality is infectious, very professional yet it feels like we've known him for years. From realtor to friend!! What made working with Wade even better is his incredible team and support system. Christine and Matt are the best! Christine was always responsive and accessible whenever we had a question and to ease any stressful moments. She was always 5 steps ahead in communicating any important information and/or letting us know when to look out for an email. Matt was such a joy to be around. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and always willing to help out, meet us when needed, was so personable and fun to get to know! We are so excited to be homeowners and are so thankful to Wade for making our dream a reality. We will continue to recommend him to all of our family and friends looking to buy their dream home in Austin. He's truly one of the best and we are lucky to call him a friend.

Matt and Wade went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us find our dream house. A process that took seven months, nearly 60 houses, and five unsuccessful offers, Matt was always there to help navigate the scheduling, offer, and search process, and always had a smile on his face and positive attitude. The Austin market certainly is a tough one to navigate and manage, and Matt and team certainly provided key, insider guidance all throughout the process. Their reputation and experience helped manage some last minute hiccups around closing to help get us into our new house as quickly as possible. We appreciate the great collaboration and thoughtfulness of the Moreland team and would recommend them to others in search of their housing needs.

Looking for houses in the Austin market was definitely stressful but working with Wade was one of the best decisions we made. Yes there were some bumps in the road but Wade never wavered and was always willing to lead us down the right path and eventually to our new spot in Austin that we are absolutely over the moon excited about. We are super grateful that we had Wade by our side every step of the way. His passion for real estate definitely shines through and knowledge of the market is outstanding. I would definitely recommend working with Wade and his team, they are simply the best.

I would definitely recommend Wade to anyone looking for a home in the 78704 area. Throughout the experience, his expertise in the overall process and the nuances was apparent and extremely helpful. He seems to truly care about his clients and goes above and beyond to keep the sale on track. As a first-time buyer, he made sure we were comfortable with everything along the way. Having Wade on your side for buying a home in this area is invaluable!

We worked with Wade and the The Giles Group team on selling our home in Zilker and they have our highest recommendation! They did such a wonderful job representing our home. They are thorough, professional, and made the process as easy as possible for us. Not to mention, they are all so wonderful to be around! Truly the best of the best!

We had a great experience buying a house with Wade and Jess. They are knowledgeable and have a wealth of resources available. A smooth, quick process ended up closing on our house without a hitch. Their recommendations for companies like plumbers, electricians, lenders, etc have been invaluable.

Purchased my first home with the help of Arion Crenshaw. He and his staff were professional, responsive and informative. Arion in particular, is an educator at heart and helped guide me through what felt like a straight forward process(likely due to his attention to detail).

Wade is the real deal. He's one of the hottest agents in Austin and runs an incredibly well-oiled machine - he knows the who, what, and where across town. He's highly knowledgeable, transparent, and knows his business inside and out. I also love the fact that he's not interested in pushing his clients into properties that aren't the right fit - in fact, there were a couple of homes I wanted to see that he informed me were really not worth my while based on my criteria, and can't tell you how much I appreciated him saving me time, and watching my back -- he was there to ensure I found a gem. I just signed on the perfect home this morning, thanks to Wade. If you want the best of the best in Austin, he's your guy!!

Wade is one of the most promising young agents ever to be inducted into the Elite 25 Austin. In just four years, Wade has gained a loyal and devoted client base and has demonstrated he truly understands the intricacies of the luxury home market.

Wade is an amazing mix of personally attentive and professionally outstanding. He has truly found his calling, and it was so much fun to work with him. I'm so thrilled to be living in my dream house, and so thankful to him for help with the sale of my home!

Wade is as good as it gets if you want a realtor to provide amazing support in every way to either sell or buy a home. His marketing and eye for creating the best presentation possible provided us with a FULL priced offer the day BEFORE our home went on the market!! On top of that result, Wade is just a fantastic person with the friendliest support staff. We couldn’t have asked for more. When we buy our next home, we are confident Wade will set us up in our dream home.

I cannot adequately thank Wade Giles and his team enough and give my strongest recommendation to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home. Wade has helped me sell in a buyers market and more recently purchase in the chaos that is the current Austin market. I firmly believe that without Wade's ability, knowledge of the industry and relationships he has built we would not have won our property. Wade, Matt, Christine and crew all catered to our wants, needs and urgency with perfect professionalism and unbelievable service.

Wade and his team are absolutely fabulous. They made the sale of our Bouldin Creek property with amazing city views as easy as it could be. Their marketing plan garnered great interest in the property from the moment we listed, and their advice on the state of real estate market was pivotal in our decision to list and ultimately sell the home. We couldn't be happier with the process and the team.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Matt from Wade’s team and our home buying process was a top-notch experience from beginning to end. Even though the neighborhood was not in his main area of expertise, Matt took the time to research and really understand the pricing and comps for us. He was always quick to respond, jumped to be there for us on home tours and quickly got answers to our questions. His team made scheduling inspections and evaluations a breeze, making everything less stressful for us. Due to the highly competitive Austin market, we were not expecting the seller to make many concessions, but Matt crafted a solid argument based on the inspections and managed to skillfully negotiate for us. He even succeeded in getting the seller to include some bonus patio furniture which was a big added value for us. Having a knowledgeable realtor with superior negotiating skills is priceless in this market. If you are looking to buy a home in Austin, do not hesitate to get Matt and the rest of Wade’s team on your side!

Once we picked a house, it was like auto-pilot was turned on. He took care of everything, which we really appreciated.

Can't say enough amazing things about Wade. He got us our dream home and is one hell of a negotiator. He has an eye for style and gives great advice on cosmetic changes you can make to make a home feel more "you". More than that, he's an all around great guy. As we were looking at condos with my in-laws, he saw I was exhausted carrying my baby around in her car seat, so he carried her.

Wade made the entire process of being a first-time home buyer as smooth and painless as possible. His personality is genuine, his knowledge of the market is great, and I am grateful for how much of a role he played in helping achieve the dream of home ownership. I will continue to refer him to anybody in the Austin area who asks and also plan on having him as my listing agent some day when I become a first-time seller. Thanks so much, Wade!

Wade was outstanding to work with. He guided me through the whole process and made buying a home easy (even though the sellers were not so easy to work with), with excellent communication from day one to close. He was always available to take my call and answer my questions. I can't say how important and helpful that was in my transaction. The Austin housing market is very tough as a buyer. With good homes there are almost always multiple offers and all cash offers, forcing the buyer to pay more than asking in many cases. With my house Wade successfully negotiated under asking and even got some of the items I wanted from the seller to stay with the house. Wade is also a great person and is a total blast to work with - he made buying my home fun.

Buying a home by myself was a daunting thought for me, but Wade made the process of finding and purchasing a lot less scary - I felt like I truly had a partner to rely on throughout the ordeal. As a business traveler, I needed somewhere that was extremely secure, close to the airport, downtown, my list went on and on. We narrowed down the building, and waited.....and waited......and waited. Since I was rarely in town, I was rarely available to look at places before they went under contract in this hot market. Finally, Wade was able to find me my perfect space before it was even listed!! We closed within 2 weeks and I've been a happy homeowner ever since! Without Wade's guidance, patience and support, I never would have had the time or the courage to do this on my own.

Wade worked tirelessly to find many options that fit my particular specifications.He spent time showing me countless properties, and negotiated with finesse when we found the right condo for my needs. I couldn't be happier with how the whole process went!

Now working with Wade on my second deal, I am very comfortable saying he significantly outperforms any realtor I've ever worked with. On the selling side, the results speak for themselves, he sold my property at 3% over asking price two days before it officially went on the market. This price was the high water-mark for our neighborhood and significantly outperformed all the comps. On top of that, he showed a lot of determination getting this through close and we never had to make any financial concessions. On the buy side, Wade has a keen sense of the market and an impressive ability to find under-valued properties. His network of lenders, title companies and insurers is also best in class at closing the deal, and he somehow managed to close a very complicated transaction in our tight timeframe. Overall, I have not met any agents that can match Wade's sense of market value, negotiating skills, or determination in closing deals. I would recommend him to anyone and will continue to use him for all my transactions.

Working with Wade was a dream. As a first-time home buyer, I didn't know the process or what to expect, but Wade was with me every step of the way. He successfully negotiated for me on a popular house, and I know without his expertise there is no way I would be enjoying my new home today.

Wade Giles and Team have been helping me search for a home for almost two years, touring 50+ houses. It was a long journey. The professionalism and patients Wade and his team showed to me were next to none. When Wade first becomes your realtor, he's just that by the end of it, he's your friend. He and his team genuinely care about finding that one house or condo that will bring happiness and joy into your life. Giles group will work day and night to help you achieve finding that special place to call home. I cannot give enough praise to this group. Once I found my condo, the process of closing was as stressless as ever, which is an achievement in itself.

Working with Wade and his team was an absolute pleasure! From the moment we started house hunting, to identifying the house I wanted, and all the way through to closing day, they did everything in their power to get the deal done. The low inventory and highly competitive nature of the market is not easy for everyone to navigate, however, I am certain Wade is the main reason I was able to secure my dream home and purchase with instant equity! Wade’s professional acumen and his connections in the business coupled with his ability to act quickly when the time called for it made the purchasing process a truly unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone and look forward to working with him again in the future!

I’m not sure I have the words to adequately convey my gratitude for Wade and his entire team. We had been looking for a home for a LONG time- with one specific zip code that historically has low inventory. Then COVID hit and the game completely changed. Matt and Wade were steadfast nonetheless always making themselves available for us and remaining positive that our house was on the horizon. The day we found our house I knew immediately it was the one. Despite having big plans for the evening Wade went into immediate action making sure our offer was the first in and working with us on how to make sure our offer was the most attractive. Our offer was accepted and I have no doubt that Wade’s expertise was critical in making that happen. From that point to closing day his entire team worked succinctly to get us to the finish line. Christine making sure all documents were timely/detailed and explaining the whole process to us. Matt showing up for inspections and walk throughs, etc. Wade negotiating until the very end and sitting with us as we signed the final papers. I cannot speak highly enough of this team. They are truly the best in the business and so delightful to work with. Even in this stressful market I can say that I had fun with them along the way and consider them friends.

We had a fantastic experience with Wade, Christine and Matt. They made sure to take the time to understand our wants and needs as first-time homebuyers, at the same time giving us real-time advice on how to manage the process in a quickly evolving market. They were patient throughout, walking us through every detail, and answering questions above and beyond their scope. Wade's knowledge of the Austin market, especially 78704, really helped position us to win our dream first home. We're so grateful for their support, and even happier to now call them friends. We'd recommend the team to anyone in Austin.

We can't say enough about Wade and his team. They struck the perfect balance of being prompt and detailed but respected our circumstances and remained patient through the process of selling our home and purchasing another. Their knowledge of the market and professionalism helped us stay at ease from the beginning.

Wow....the absolute best experience working with Wade on listing and selling our house in Lakeway! We were blown away with the level of care, attention to detail and the extra mile he and his team went to get our house sold quickly! Wade is THE Real Estate expert in Central Texas, hands down. Above all else, he is an incredible human and I am confident you will love him and his team. They are absolutely the Best!!
