Cristi McGowan - Testimonials

Cristi and her team were amazing. She truly is the “whole package”! She was able to connect us with people to get the home ready to sell and boy were we impressed! She took care of everything, even helping us pick out colors and beautifully staged the home. She truly went above and beyond to make this process as worry free as possible. She was efficient and prompt with all communications. Cristi never seem to tire of our questions and always made us feel at ease. We are so glad we choose her to help us with this process. She truly went above and beyond!

She even picked up moving boxes for me and delivered them. She was willing to pitch in and help, no matter what it was. She is tough and professional in handling the sale. Our sale kind of drug out for a while, no fault to Christi, more the fault of all the refinancing and volume of homes being sold. She was understanding with our frustrations and worries and was right there to help.

!!! Cristi is so client oriented and goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy and have the home of your dreams! I would've been absolutely lost and IN TEARS if I didn't have her!! The team really walks you through every step and makes sure you understand what's happening.

She took time to know our family and what works best for us. She made the stressful process of buying a new home and moving as seamless as possible! We are forever grateful for her expertise and guidance!

She is great to work with and gets the job done! Thank you Cristi for all your help in the purchase of my new place!

She is fair and unbiased. She priced our home above the market value and got more for it then what we were asking. Her communication skills are excellent. Between Cristi and her assistant Beth we were never left to wonder where we were in the selling process. Cristi gave us good advice along the way and we were extremely pleased with the results. We highly recommend Cristi and the Waco Home Team to anyone buying or selling a home.

Recommend her 100%! We used her expertise over the last year for both buying a new build and selling our previous house. The home sold for well over asking after only 3 viewings during a pandemic! Skills! She did a fantastic job of advertising, made sure to get eye-catching professional photos to attract buyers and gave us expert staging advice. It was our first time selling, and she made it a breeze. If you’re on the fence about using a realtor for a new build, I’d strongly advise it. She caught so many “fine print” items that saved us big headaches and put pressure on builders for us when necessary. She recommended an inspector who caught items we wouldn’t have noticed otherwise (like thousands of dollars of roof damage on the hew build)! Cristi also does her homework about current and future economic issues and can give smart advice on good times to buy/sell. Now my parents are buying in Waco and Cristi is helping them as well."

She was patient with us and willing to go above and beyond what a normal agent would do. Also she is extremely knowledgeable about the Waco and surrounding area. She has great contacts that are helping with repairs ect. All that wrapped up in a caring professional agent that has become a friend. 100% recommend her.

She's thorough, communicative, knowledgeable, and attentive. I'd highly recommend using her to buy our sell your home. She's patient and kind and you'll enjoy the home buying process with her on your side!

Cristi did not disappoint. She quickly prepared a list of homes and wanted to make sure that she was on the right track with the homes she provided. If we were interested, she was ready to book a showing and worked with our schedules. From preparing the offer to the point an offer was accepted, she was ready to "go to bat" for us. She was ready for action at a moments notice and showed great pride in her job. She was easy to work with, cared about finding our family a home that was right for us, and she made it a great experience overall (especially with the changes taking place during the pandemic). It's easy to see why she was so highly recommended!

She laid out the process clearly for us and even gave us great sources for removing furniture and trash. She made it possible for us to handle the sale and closing from our home (over 100 miles away). She presented us with offers for my mom’s home within 2 weeks and closed a month after listing. We would not hesitate to recommend Cristi to anyone needing a realtor.

She has represented me in multiple real estate transactions over the years and in the end, while I felt like things were bumpy, she always managed to smooth them out. This last sale, the ceiling began leaking literally less than 24 hours before the walk through! I panicked of course and Cristi remained calm and got everyone on it and it was fixed by 9:00 am the next day. The poise, patience, and passion she has for her clients says it all. Thanks friend!

We are in California and buying in Waco Tx and Cristi made sure that everything was perfect with the house and the sale. We really couldn’t have done this sale without all of her help. Cristi is very knowledgeable and professional and made sure that we were kept informed on everything going on with he home and escrow. Even after the escrow closed Cristi continued to help us with finding contractors and getting things done. We highly recommend Cristi for all of your Realestate needs.

Did not hold back on saying what she really felt about a house and what it was truly worth. Will absolutely be using her again.

Not only is she our realtor she has become a family friend. Her expertise is beyond any realtor I have ever used. Cristi wants her customers happy and will do whatever it takes to make sure that happens. She is a calmimg presence in the storm of home buying.

!! Absolutely the best realtor! Every step of the way she MADE IT HAPPEN for us. Above our expectations and we are so grateful for her services and thoughtfulness as well.

She sold a home for us in early 2024 and helped us find a new home in late 2024. She was always professional and easy to work with. She is like having your best friend sell or help you buy a home. We were 1300 miles away while buying our new home and she did everything we could not be there for. Would recommend her anytime to anyone wanting the best in a agent.

She really knows her stuff and the area and could answer any questions that we threw her way. Feeling like my realtor is my advocate is important to me and Cristi was perfect. I always felt like she had our best interests in mind. I would definitely recommend Cristi!

Luckily, our daughter recommended Cristi McGowan to us. She was building her dream home, and she told us that her experience with Cristi was exceptional. The process took about a year to complete due to Covid, but we finally closed! Cristi was with us all of the way. We called her often and she always made time for us. She was patient and professional, and easy to work with. We wish she could sell our house is Austin.

Going into the home buying process I was kinda nervous and wasnt sure what to expect but she made the whole process pretty simple.

She was professional, knowledgeable, and helpful through every step of the home buying process. As first time home buyers, we had a lot to learn. Cristi was patient and answered all of our questions. She ended up helping us get into a great home and connected us with excellent contractors to help us make it our own. We plan on recommending Cristi to friends, family, and anyone who asks!

We'll definitely use again in the future and recommend to everyone! Cristi is awesome!

She a down to earth person with a lot of knowledge in what she does

Cristi goes above and beyond for your needs. This is the second time we have used her services. We will definitely use her again and send her referrals. She is amazing!

We knew very little about the home-buying process but she taught us everything we needed to know and gave us confidence in our decision. We love our new house and are so grateful for Cristi's help!

She used to work for Stylecraft builders so she has an excellent eye for structural issues in homes and how to also improve them cosmetically. She is super knowledgeable and will work around your schedule. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Second time we have had the privilege of working with her (buying and selling). She truly goes above and beyond in every detail. In a tough market she got it done for us. HIGHLY recommend.

From our very first conversation, Cristi’s deep market knowledge and experience were evident. After interviewing several agents, it was clear that she stood out. She quickly assessed the strengths and challenges of our property and outlined a clear, data-driven marketing strategy. Her approach combined online listings, social media outreach, and professional photography, ensuring our home was presented in the best possible light. She also came prepared with detailed market comparables and insights into our target buyers—insights that proved to be spot on. Cristi’s strong industry connections gave us a significant advantage, from tapping into buyer networks to coordinating with inspectors and surveyors. Thanks to her guidance, we listed our home on a Monday and were under contract before the week was out—while similar homes in the area had lingered on the market for months. Her negotiation expertise was instrumental in keeping the deal on track. One of the most refreshing aspects of working with Cristi was her clear commitment to professionalism and ethics. She prioritized transparency and honesty throughout the process, ensuring that every decision was in our best interest. I never felt pressured, only well-informed and supported. Toward the end of the transaction, things became a bit complicated when our buyers faced delays in selling their own home. Cristi handled every challenge with professionalism, providing frequent updates and expertly navigating contract extensions and disclosures. Thanks to her diligence, what could have been a stressful situation remained manageable and straightforward for us. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, and results-driven real estate broker, Cristi is an outstanding choice.

My company transferred me with a short notice and we needed to sell quick. Cristi and her team did a fantastic job getting the house ready for market. She got it sold quickly and at a good price. I would absolutely recommend Cristi to anyone who is in the market.

She is always looking out for her clients and wants nothing but the best for them. She helped us find the perfect home for our family.

She got us more than we expected on our old home and helped us negotiate the price on our new purchase. It was an easy and smooth experience. I would fully recommend Waco Home Team.

She is super-proactive and helped us think of every detail. Would very highly recommend her!

Professional, personable and offering constructive straight talk, Cristi’s expertise allowed us to avoid missteps and strategically maximize our selling potential. The end result? We sold our house with two days of listing it, at a price that was more than what we asked for. If you are wondering which of a plethora of real estate agents should be the one to represent you, let me give you some helpful advice: This. Is. The. One.

She made the process of buying a different home so easy and stress free.I highly recommend Cristi for your next home purchase. She knows her real estate business and will go the extra mile for her clients.
