Nanette Labastida - Realtor

Nanette is amazing! She helped us buy our first home in Austin nearly 10 years ago, so when the time came for us to move to another part of town recently, we knew exactly who to call. She has great knowledge of the city, is super responsive, and organized (plus warm and funny :) ). She makes you feel like you’re her only client. Nanette helps you keep things in perspective and makes the home-buying and selling processes as stress-free as it can be in ATX!

Nanette is an amazing realtor. My husband and I were moving to Austin from out of state and looking to buy a house as first time home buyers. Nanette was recommended to us by friends. She was easy to communicate with in advance of our arrival about different houses and areas. She knows a lot of the other realtors in Austin and had the scoop on a couple houses we were looking at. When we came down to look at houses we viewed 18 houses over 4 days. Nanette was super chill and honest the whole time. We never felt stressed or rushed at any point. She told us what was good and bad about the street/area and the house. She noticed a lot of details that we didn't notice, which was wicked helpful. After viewing all the houses we had 4 that were potential contenders. That was when Nanette dug up all the details on those houses and sent it over to us. We were able to narrow down to one house that we loved. Nanette put an offer in for us that same afternoon under asking with all contingencies and after one negotiation we got the house! Since we were out of state still Nanette organized and oversaw the home inspection and the final walkthrough. Everything was perfect working with her and she is a lovely person. Thanks Nanette!

Nanette is an absolute gem! She was highly recommended by someone I trust, and our first home buying process would not have been the same without her. Nanette was so responsive, realistic, and sharp when it came to any questions we had about home buying (which were many) in such a lucrative housing market. We were worried about working with someone who didn’t have our true interests in mind, but Nanette proved time and time again that she was there to advocate for us. If I could give her 10 stars here, I would!

We listed at the beginning of Feb 2022 — not a great time with housing prices, the market, and it was cold outside.

Nanette prepared me to be on the market for 30+ days and that we might need to negotiate (lower the price) for a quick sale.

She sent a photographer who took pics that made me want to move back in, hosted 2 crazy busy open houses, and had 9 offers (2 less than full price) in 72 hours of listing.

Sold for 10% over list and closed on 30 days. She’s a rock star. Period.

We are so grateful we found Nanette to help us find our home! As first-time homebuyers, we were pretty intimidated by the housing search process. Nanette was more than patient in answering our many questions, and had such valuable insights about the market and the homes we looked at. We were able to find our home in just two weeks, and we are so happy! We very highly recommend Nanette for all your real estate needs.

Nanette couldn't have been more professional or pleasant when we recently purchased a home. She went above and beyond and made sure that our family found a home that didn't just meet, but exceeded all of our expectations. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Nanette is fantastic! - extremely responsive, trustworthy and diligent.
She has an in-depth knowledge of the real estate market, and we felt complete confidence working with her.
She treated our transaction - and us- with the utmost care and attention. We were so impressed with her combination of high level professional expertise and warm personality.

I loved working with Nanette! She opened my eyes to options that I hadn't really considered, which lead to the cute vintage home I just purchased in the cutest little neighborhood. She is very responsive and I will definitely work with her again in the future. I highly recommend working with Nanette!

Nanette is a rockstar realtor. She helped us navigate a VERY difficult market in Austin, she was responsive to all of my questions and worked to help us find our home for over 2 months as we worked through having 10+ offers rejected. I can’t put into words how helpful Nanette was and positive she helped us remain through the whole exhausting process.

Nanette is a joy to work with, & her years of expertise are invaluable during such an important process. She helped us find our dream home & purchase it quickly & with minimal stress, making sure we knew our options & troubleshooting issues as they arose. Highly recommended for anyone buying or selling a home!

You'll find Nanette under @Rocknrealty on instagram. The moniker is fitting because she is a rockstar at what she does. Nanette was recommended to us by a family member back in December of 2020. My wife and I are first time homebuyers. We're both young professionals, who both grew up poor never thinking we'd ever move out of apartments or have our own house to call home. We've worked hard to put ourselves in better situations so that hopefully our future children will never have to think the same things when they are young. Honestly though, as hard as we've worked, we could not have done this without Nanette.

We started looking for houses the first week of January 2021, possibly the worst time in Austin's history to look for a house. It was a very difficult process for us, even though we felt like we had a very competitive offer for our price-point.

3 months later, with easily over 100 houses looked at and 50 offers put in, we have found our home. As mentioned before, we could not have done this without Nanette. 3 months in, we were on the verge of giving up. Literally we gave ourselves one last weekend of looking at houses before calling it quits when Nanette tells us that a seller (who originally rejected our offer) had reconsidered and wanted to sell us their home. I firmly believe that the rapport she easily builds with people contributed to the sellers nudging in our direction.

Nanette devoted her entire weekends to us from January to March. She easily could have referred us to another colleague as she lives in South Austin, and we were looking in Leander and even Georgetown. She made no complaints about the drives or the time we took from her. She answered calls well past normal working hours and helped us understand every step along the way.

But, you can get that from any realtor. What you'll find only in Nanette is someone with a purely Austin perspective and tenacity. She will stay with you and be your champion. When you're thinking of giving up because the market is too difficult and maybe you'll just try later, she'll keep you on course and find you your home.

My wife and I didn't want much. Just a small place with a yard for our dog and space enough for us to start a family down the line. We have that now, and I can't thank Nanette enough.

Nanette did a great job and actually found me a home in Austin that she visited and picked out for me. I never was able to actually see the home until months after I bought it. I trusted Nanette because she is so proficient in assessing neighborhoods, home values , and preparing comps of all available houses. She also sold a house for me and the transaction could not have gone better. I will use her again and again because she does what she promises you she will do!

Recently completed a sale with Nanette: she is an incredible real estate agent. She is very organized, knows the game, and really cares.
She helped us through the whole process, understanding the market we were in, and guiding us through any changes we should consider to make the house more saleable.
Also provided us with resources like a stager to make the most of our home's presentation.

LOVE Nanette! She was so patient with our looooong house search; and when we finally got into full swing she showed us some unexpected gems across town. She knows Austin so well; she can tell you which way a neighborhood is going and help you see past things a quick coat of paint can fix. Loved working with her. If we ever move out of our dream home, you can bet we're calling Nanette!

Amazing experience for a first time homebuyer as Nanette is very knowledgeable on dissecting neighborhoods in the Austin area. Super accommodating for viewing SOOO many properties in a week (thank you Nanette for putting up with us!) and the extra plus is she knows where all the best coffee shops are in the area.

What differentiates Nanette from other realtors is she isn't pushy or salesy - she's real and transparent. She will tell you her honest opinion!

Lastly, we appreciate her going above and beyond after closing!

This was my first time selling a home, and Nanette made it feel like an incredibly simple and stress-free process. I credit this completely to all the work she did in the background. She was quick to respond with answers to my questions along the way, and everything was completed on time without any hiccups. Her knowledge of the local housing market and people in the industry made her opinions and recommendations easy to trust. I'd gladly recommend her to anyone!

Nanette is a rock star of the realtor world. She helped me find my first home- my dream home. Without her I don't know if I would have found it. She listened to what I wanted and was patient with my first time jitters and endless questions. No wasted time showing me homes I wasn't interested in. Highly recommended!

She's warm and friendly, and a complete professional... She has a a relaxing, laid-back energy, but she's quick to respond to texts and emails and never left us hanging... Nanette Labastida is a treat to work with! She looks out for you -- before, during and after the home-buying process. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

A little over a year ago, my husband and I made the life-changing decision to move to Austin, TX. As you can imagine, we were excited but also incredibly nervous as new residents and first-time home buyers. While researching my new city, I stumbled upon the blog of a music-loving vegan yogi who – as fate would have it – also happened to be a realtor. So naturally I contacted her through Social Media and arranged a meeting! From the initial conversations about our house and neighborhood preferences to spending hours driving us around to tour homes, Nanette was THE BEST. She is accessible, responsive, and super fun to hang out with! We instantly felt at ease with her as she guided us through the home-buying process and introduced us to our new city. For anyone planning to buy real estate in Austin, Nanette is your girl!

When you're looking for a new home, you tend to spend a lot of time with your realtor, and Nanette is an easy person to drive around with for hours looking at places with. She also knows Austin really well an helped me and my husband nab our sweet industrial loft downtown.
