What Clients Are Saying About Relocating with Roarke

“We were moving to Austin from CA and a friend had recommended Roarke and we couldn’t be happier! Roarke met with us several months ago to get a better understanding of what we were looking for, and from there he provided us a custom portal with houses that was updated weekly, and made viewing and choosing potential houses effortless. When it came time to view the house we wanted, Roarke coordinated with my friend to walk the house with them on our behalf. Lastly, Roarke negotiated several items on the lease agreement on our behalf to ensure it aligned with our needs & asks. We can’t thank Roarke enough for helping us find the perfect house in Austin!” - Josh P.
