Dorie did an EXCELLENT job as our agent! She knows this market and our community like the back of her hand. She provided great suggestions to stage the house, developed excellent marketing materials, and helped us through every step of the process. She was always there to answer our questions (we had many!) and gave us great guidance through the entire process. I highly recommend Dorie!!!

Our first home buying experience went very quickly: we were under contract on our perfect home two days after we began looking at houses, and we closed 28 days later. Dorie's expertise and responsiveness made us feel confident throughout the entire process, something we didn't think we would ever feel while buying our first home. -- David and Madison

Dorie Dillard is absolutely amazing! We are so happy we chose to work with Dorie to sell our home. Her market analysis and recommendation on pricing and sales strategy, along with her assistance on staging our home was spot on. Dorie's professionalism, thoroughness and attention to detail made the entire process less stressful for us. If you need an agent, we definitely recommend Dorie!

We knew we were not giving Dorie an easy task when we asked her to help us buy our dream home. She would need to convince the seller to accept our contingency offer in a market where recent demand had far exceeded supply. Though interest rates were skyrocketing, and our neighborhood sales had come to a sudden halt, she would need to sell our home fast and for top dollar to make the contingency offer happen. Making the job more complicated, we needed our buyer to allow us to lease back our home as part of the sale.
Dorie’s experience was invaluable. Her seasoned professionalism kept the seller of our new home confident in our contingency offer. Her experienced marketing strategies resulted in several offers, including a full price offer with the leaseback included, in only a few short days from listing. She juggled the needs of the buyers, sellers, and lenders with lightning-fast communication.
Most importantly, we always felt Dorie had our best interest at heart. Her finely tuned knowledge of the industry was crucial to our success, and we honestly do not feel we would have been successful without her.

We've moved twice over a period of 20 years and were lucky enough to have Dorie represent us on both occasions. Her knowledge of the market, experience with all matters of home sales and purchases, communication skills, and professionalism throughout a sometimes stressful and complex process are second to none.
She helped us price our house right at just the right time. Her advice about how to prepare for the sale was spot on. During the sale of our home and the purchase of our next, she kept in close and constant communication with all the parties involved.
Her ability to make the complicated seem easy and handle any hiccups along the way was fantastic. Other qualities such as her compassion, enthusiasm, and the fact that she knows just about everyone -- from realtors to title companies to contractors -- make it hard for us to imagine using anyone else for our home. We highly recommend Dorie as a Realtor! -- Chris and Erika

"Our experience with Dorie as our agent was amazing. We were so impressed with her knowledge, professionalism, and marketing skills! From the day we signed with Dorie, she seamlessly guided us through a successful sale of our home….our home was sold in 4 days! This is what happens when you hire the best! Thank you Dorie!!"

A special thank you to Dorie Dillard! 17 months ago, we started the process of listing our house for sale and for the first time, building a new house from the ground up. Dorie was our realtor when we purchased our home 11 years earlier. Dorie is exceptional to work with. Her experience and market knowledge were evident throughout the sales process. She provided great advice in making the house ready to list and was spot on in the recommended listing price. Dorie managed a multi-offer situation for us, resulting in an offer well above our list price. When we started the building process, Dorie was always available and willing to engage with the builder on our behalf. While the process was longer than expected, we are extremely happy with our new house. Dorie was engaged throughout the process. We could not be happier and highly recommend Dorie for any of your real estate needs.
Thank you again.

Hi Dorie,
Thank you so much for the very competent representation of our interests in the sale of our home. The depth of your experience was really apparent from the start and throughout the process. Your extensive list of contacts relating to prepping our home for sale was really, quite useful. We are extremely pleased with the results you helped us to obtain so please don't hesitate to call on us for referrals to other potential home sellers or buyers.

I would like to share my experience with working with Dorie Dillard to sell our house in Austin recently. Dorie is the consummate professional. She is very detail oriented as she provided us with extensive analysis of the current market situation, both in our direct neighborhood as well as the extended area. This analysis included both houses on the market, homes sold, and price per sq ft, further categorized by the amount of remodeling done. She personally goes to see the houses nearest in comparison to ours so to provide us with the best data driven recommendation on how to price our property.
Furthermore, she did a great job marketing our house before it even went on the market. She had so many prospects lined up ahead of time that our house sold in less than 24 hours and we had 5 offers.
Lastly, Dorie is an excellent negotiator. She worked amazing terms on our house, some which I had never seen put into practice before.
The result was selling the house in 1-day, multiple offers as mentioned, with the winner being $90k over list.
I have bought and sold 6 homes in my lifetime and Dorie is the absolute best realtor I have worked with. I highly recommend her to you. Tim

Dorie is just that Brilliantly Intuitive regarding all thing’s real estate, the current Market happenings, and Canyon Creek. Dorie is the best! She was thorough and professional and great to work with. She kept me informed. She was honest and forthright- no games, she also prepped and walked me through the closing process which was piece a cake! Dorie! Seriously you blew me away!
All I had to do was listen, trust, and follow and that is what I did,
I will be forever grateful to you for your insight, knowledge, patience, and for helping me to lay the groundwork for the journey ahead of me.
Respectfully Yours,

"Dorie is a fantastic realtor and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home. She is highly skilled, experienced, professional and a great communicator. She made sure our house was priced right and came on the market at the perfect time, with great marketing. We had multiple offers on our house, and she was awesome at communicating with the buyers' realtors, which was especially important for us because our home sale involved complicated relocation company paperwork. She kept us updated throughout the process and was very responsive. Even after we were under contract, she was superb at communicating and negotiating with the buyers' realtor to make sure the final sale process was smooth and timely. We were lucky to have Dorie as our realtor!" Abhi and Ash

We have worked with Dorie for the purchase of our home when we came to Austin 11 years ago and for our recent sale of our house. Dorie did such a fantastic job on our first experience that we recommended her to several of our friends that also went on to be lifetime customers of her. She is always available for good advice on who to get to do things in your home, she knows everyone they all love working with her. She knows the area, she knows the market, she knows how to get top dollar for your home coming away with everyone feeling great about the transaction. You can't do better. Matt and Paula

Dorie recently helped us sell our home. She was amazing throughout the entire process. From the first meeting she was able to set our initial expectations around pricing and provide guidance on how to prepare the house for sale. While preparing the house, she was able to provide assistance on everything from contractor recommendations to style choices and paint colors. Dorie is extremely thorough, organized, and communicative and kept us on track every step of the way. Our house had multiple offers on the first day it was listed! Dorie was an absolute joy to work with. She knows the Canyon Creek real estate market inside and out by street, builder, and year built. I’m pretty sure she could tell you every owner of every house here since it was built, and she uses that encyclopedia of knowledge to help her clients achieve the best results possible. I truly can’t recommend Dorie highly enough! Mike and Danyell

I honestly can’t say enough positive things about Dorie Dillard. I’ve owned two houses in Canyon Creek. Dorie Dillard has been my realtor for the last 12 or so years. Dorie was my agent for two houses that I owned in Canyon Creek. Dorie provided exceptional service as my seller’s agent for one house, and as my buyer’s agent as well as eventually selling my second house.
Dorie is extremely knowledgeable about the entire real estate process, and her experience has been very apparent on each real estate transaction that she’s helped me over the last 12 years.
In addition to be extremely knowledgably, what also constantly amazed me is the Dorie continually went above and beyond the service what I would normally expect from a realtor.
One example of going above and beyond was during the time period leading up to and during the sale of both my houses. I wasn’t able to be in Austin because I had a family member who was very sick. Dorie helped coordinate practically all the renovations that I needed to get my houses ready to place on the market. Dorie certainly eased a lot of stress of selling a home and moving during a time that was already very stressful.
Dorie was also super responsible whenever I had a question, always professional and just simply wonderful to work with. Also impressive was how Dorie understands the Austin real estate market (current and past), resulting in getting the absolute best price for both of my houses. My only regret is that I can’t use her in the state that I’m now living in 😊
