Petra Richardson, Realtor® - Home Team of America

Petra has helped me yet again in my home buying experience. I cannot express in words how simply wonderful of a Realtor she is. In this experience, my boyfriend and I were building a new construction home. I must make it known that not all Realtor's have the expansive knowledge and experience as Petra in the new home construction realm so it is very important to have someone like Petra who has your back throughout the whole process and is looking out for your best interest. The builder is not on your friend or on your team, but Petra is! The builder just wants your money, build your home as fast as possible and take hidden shortcuts without you noticing. As always, my buying experience with Petra from beginning to end was leaps and bounds above average! My advice is to always have the best, so go for Petra!

Super duper, multiplied 999 trillion times. Petra knows what you want, and find the best for you. We trusted her since the first day we met her, and it was worth it. Highly recommended to anyone on the market of selling/buying home.

Petra recommended the price, reviewed and researched offers and gave us excellent advice. She used media and marketing to make the home we were selling irresistible to potential buyers. We sold the property in three days and we had 13 offers to choose from. Petra is real estate royalty.

It was great! Petra helped us look through several potential homes before we found the one that we purchased. Everything was smooth and done fairly quickly. The process was as painless as I've ever experienced. Petra is a thoughtful and capable realtor. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Petra is by far the most amazing realtor that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Have bought numerous home before and investment properties, I had yet to find someone that knew as much as she did and the level of dedication she provide to you as a client is beyond amazing. Petra went to bat for my wife and I countless times and did not give in to tactics by the seller as she was well aware of what was happening behind the scenes with the seller and she knew how to circumvent that process to obtain a beneficial outcome on our behalf. I cannot recommend her enough and when you do hire her as your realtor, she will walk you through everything and you can be absolutely sure that she has your interest in mind and is not afraid to fight to get you what you are paying for. Petra, My wife and I thank you a million time for all the support and help you provided us during the building of our home. You really were amazing.

Very smooth Petra knows here job well she is proficient in all she does for her is is th second time we have used her services and it will not be our last.

Petra sold our house in 12 days for exactly what we wanted. We could not ask for more from a realtor. She was great!

Our experience with Ms. Richardson was very positive.We never felt she was forcing us to buy any property so as to get her commission.she wanted us to be happy with our decision.She provided pros and cons of the property,so we could make a informed decision regarding the sale. It is very important when you build a home that the sales agent/realtor helps you till the very end ,. This was in our case and we now have beautiful home.Many of us don't know regarding construction,or how the real estate business works.Having someone who is trustworthy is so important. we found Ms.Richardson trustworthy and completely looking out for our best interest.I would have no hesitation to do any of my real estate needs in the future.

This was the first time that I've ever had to sell a house, so I was pretty nervous going into it. Petra came very highly recommended by a friend and I can definitely see why. If I could only use one word to describe her, it would be "incredible". She was professional in every way and made the entire process easy for me to understand. She provided me with excellent tips to help me sell my house faster and for more money. As it turns out, I got an offer of my asking price within the first 24 hours of my house being on the market. There were several hiccups along the way with the buyers and even more with the lending company, but throughout the entire process Petra was nothing less than amazing. She is a very headstrong woman and she did not allow the lending company to slack off. She constantly stayed in contact with them and with me. I was always kept up to date of what was going on and Petra was always very good about responding to my phone calls, text messages, and emails in a very timely manner, even if it was late at night or on the weekends. I really felt like she went the extra mile to provide me with the best service possible. Even when there were issues with the buyers or the lending company, I was never that worried because I had Petra in my corner and I knew that she would fight for my best interests. Because of Petra's expertise, my house was priced appropriately and her estimates on what my house could appraise for and what my closing costs would be were right on the money. Prior to hiring Petra, I had consulted with another sales agent that told me that I wouldn't be able to sell my house for anything more than $105,000. With Petra, I sold it for $115,000, which turned out to be by far the highest selling price for comparable homes in my neighborhood. If I ever need to buy or sell a house again I will definitely be calling Petra first. I will also recommend her to any of my friends or family members that are considering buying or selling a house.

Petra Richardson is hands down the best Realtor in San Antonio, if not the world. I?m 22yrs old and this is my first home. I?ve never had a loan, I had never even checked my credit before, but guess what? thanks to Mrs. Richardson, I?m the proud owner of a 3 bedroom house. Any question I had, Petra had the answer. Any person I needed (lender, insurance, etc.) Petra knew the person to call. She?s so available it feels as if you?re her only client. Even now after I?ve purchased the home and everything is done, she?s still there when I have a question. Petra Richardson goes far and beyond all expectations of a realtor. If you?re looking for a realtor, Petra Richardson is the person to call.

Petra Richardson is the absolute best Realtor I have ever encountered in my entire life! Not only was she an amazing Realtor but she was there for me after the buying process was completed and helped me figure out a few things in my life. She is all around #1!!! My type of home buying experience with Petra was new construction. I originally started building with one builder in Stillwater Ranch but then I decided to back out and wait a few more months to figure out exactly what I wanted in a new home. Petra assisted me throughout the entire process and I was able to recoup my earnest money without any complications. About 8 months later, I finally decided to build a home in The Summit at Alamo Ranch. Petra again was there throughout the entire process and made me feel like I was her only client (even though I know I wasn?t lol)! She made sure that the builder did not take advantage of my lack of knowledge in the buying process and went even further by making sure I got the best rate on my mortgage! I was completely happy with the entire buying process and appreciate how easy and smooth she made everything go. Petra most definitely will not back down from those pushy builders either; she will fight to make sure you get exactly what you want. Petra is amazing and a top tier Realtor for sure! You cannot go wrong with Petra!!! If she ever stops being a Realtor, I am not sure what I will do! No one can even come close to her level. I am already looking forward to my next buying experience with her!

We used Petra and her team as our real estate agent upon the recommendation of a friend in September 2015 to sell our house in San Antonio. We are living in New Jersey at this time. We spoke with Petra on the phone and then met with her at our home. She spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data regarding how many homes they sell, how long their listings typically stay on the market, and providing tons of info on comps in the area. We were concerned that our house which had been a rental would be tough to sell. Petra made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps many other Realtors don't (but should), like give us honest opinions and tips about renovating the house, having professional photographs taken, and a lot more. When we saw our listing we were blown away. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off - our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. The team put a lot of effort into marketing and advertising the house on Social media e.t.c. We had 32 showings in 4 1/2 days. The first day we had already an offer and ended with 9 offers on the 5th day. Our house went under contract 5 days after we put it on the market over the asking price.We sold $12/per sqf higher than the previous 12 month for this area. We accepted the offer and Petra walked us through every step of the closing process. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience. I've recommended the Home Team of America to everyone I know. She's a true professional and a genuinely nice person. I realize it won't always be this easy to sell your home, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better Realtor.

Looking for a new home can be a nerve wracking, stressful, and emotional experience. Petra and her team were very pleasant, professional and informative every step of the way. A pleasure to work with and would absolutely recommend her for any homebuyer. She and her team took our stress away with positive support and calming demeanor.

Compassion, Commitment, and Competence are the three C?s that define Petra Richardson our realtor. My wife and I moved to San Antonio and sought a home for a year with three different realtors. Then we discovered a San Antonio jewel, Petra Richardson. When we first met her, she said, ?I will fight for you. I am your realtor.? We knew the words came from her heart as well as her lips. Petra?s compassion came through her strong desire to understand what we wanted; she wanted to find us a home, not a house. She accomplished her goal. Her commitment came through the numerous timely text messages, emails, and ability to move quickly on new home listings (off the chart!). Her competence was evident from the moment we met to closing. My wife and I recommend Petra Richardson without reservations. Dr. Ray Calabrese

I moved here back in 2012 along with a close friend as we both got job transfers with our company to San Antonio. My buddy's wife selected Petra off her glowing reviews and was talking remotely with her for quite some time before we even made the trip out. My buddy and I arrived in town a few months ahead of our spouses to start working. I wasn't in a position to buy but I wanted to tag along with him to scout the area. I got to see Petra in action as she worked with my friend. Since he and I were temporarily rooming together, I would tag along on many of the showings Petra arranged. She was amazing. Every single showing she arrived prepared and ready to answer anything we could throw at her. She took the time to explain each area of town we were in and would point out things with each house that we hadn't noticed and explained why it was a good or bad thing to consider. I could tell she was focused on finding the right home for my friend and not just making a sale. When it came time for him to finally settle on a house she was an expert on all the ins and outs of the process. She definitely struck me as a bulldog, ready to fight every inch for the best deal. The entire process went smoothly for him. Fast forward two years and I'm finally ready to buy my own house. The thing is, I had been driving around myself and found a new construction neighborhood and a floorplan that I really liked. I could have just worked with the builder but I still called up Petra to rely on her expertise. She immediately remembered who I was and was ready to lend a hand with anything I needed. She met with myself and the builder and made them answer several questions I hadn't thought to ask. We then entered a 6 month build and here is where she truly shined. Along the way, delays and issues with the build made me frustrated. I wondered if I had jumped the gun. I asked Petra if we could look at other houses while my build was going on. She didn't bat an eye and proceeded to take me through several parts of town on a bunch of showings over the span of a couple months. She went on vacation during this time but still had her assistant take care of us with more showings while she was gone and kept in touch the entire time! While I didn't find another house I liked than the one I was building, the process did cement my decision with what I had. I really needed that. I had a bad experience with my last home in Chicago and she really helped me be at ease with buying again. During all of this, I felt like I was her ONLY client! I know she's highly in demand and it's amazing how responsive and attentive she is. She's on point during every step of the process. My parents are debating on moving to San Antonio or Tucson so I'm going to be giving her a call very soon!

The experience was fine. Everything was pretty much as expected.

Petra is a great person, very knowledgeable, she is accurate, professional, she helped us out selling our home, she sold it in 3 weeks, we are very happy with her and if we need, we recommend her, she is GREAT.

OUTSTANDING! Petra SOLD our house for the HIGHEST PRICE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD!!!! And, it was only on the market for 48 hours with multiple offers! She is completely trustworthy and WILL look after YOU and YOUR INTERESTS! Take whatever advice she gives you...She knows EXACTLY what she is talking about!!! If you are looking for the BEST realtor in Texas...You just found her! Do yourself a favor and call her...You will be laughing all the way to the bank!

Our experience with Petra was truly wonderful. The home buying experience prior to signing on with Mrs. Richardson was a very difficult one. We tried out several agents in the area and had issues with responsiveness, overall knowledge and professionalism. That's when I decided to join Angie's List and hire the best. Petra is very punctual, professional, friendly and she really knows her stuff. We have just moved into our beautiful home and we love it more everyday!

WOW! What an amazing experience we had with Petra. My husband and I had only one 3-day weekend to fly into San Antonio from Los Angeles - we didn't necessarily expect to be making an offer during our scouting trip. But Petra actually found us the home we FELL IN LOVE with! This is how it happened: After seeing one wonderful home, we were prepared to make an offer only to discover it had just gone under contract. Later that afternoon, Petra sent us a new listing in the neighborhood that just happened to come up that day. We called her and she jumped hoops to rearrange her day and meet us. The house was PERFECT for us! We knew there were already offers pending, but she coached us through our own offer, explained every step of the way, made wise suggestions, and trusted her instincts. And we GOT THE HOUSE!!! Prior to our weekend in San Antonio she had set up a personal portal for us on her realtor site with hand-picked properties she thought would suit us based on telephone calls and emails exchanged a few months before arriving. Her selections were thoughtful, smart, and within our budget. Since we were not familiar with the city, we trusted her to guide us into the neighborhoods that would suit us best. She always returned every phone call, text, and email incredibly quickly! The entire process was smooth and effortless. Now we have a house in Los Angeles to sell and we want a Petra-clone there to do it for us! She is the most talented agent we have ever worked with. We placed our hearts and our money into Petra's hands and she delivered us a home in our new city of San Antonio.

When I first met Petra, I gave her our "wish list" for our future home. Our future home had to have a fireplace, gas stove, downstairs master bedroom, big kitchen and on acreage. Not only did she find it but she negotiated a great deal. Additionally she stayed with us every step of the way through closing. Petra is friendly, knowledgeable, professional and just a terrific person. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone who is ready to buy a home.

Petra is awesome to work with. She gave me great advice which I'm so glad I followed. Her years of experience helped me avoid mistakes in selling my home. She is professional, dedicated, always available, and will always tell you the truth!

I can honestly say that I feel like I hit the jackpot of real estate professionals, and then some, when it comes to Petra. During our initial meeting, Petra really listened to me about what my past experiences had been. I layed out on the table for her who I am and what I needed from a real estate agent. We then discussed who she is and how she works, the kind of service she provides, and what she needs from her clients to help them be successful in their real estate endeavors. We hit it off immediately because Petra is forthright, completely professional, honest, customer service driven, and most importantly, kind. There was never a time during my home search that Petra did not make herself available to me as quickly as she possibly could. I couldn't believe how responsive she was to me and how seriously she took getting me in to see the homes I was interested in, as quickly as possible. When we finally found the right property, Petra moved immediately to get my offer submitted while giving me sage advice so that I was successful in my bid. Mine was one of multiple offers, but I believe I got the contract because of Petra's advice and follow up with the listing agent. Most importantly, she was one step ahead of every single question or concern I had during the contract period. She literally would not allow me to worry, as she was working behind the scenes to make my home buying experience as seemless as it could possibly be. Working with Petra has been one of the best experiences I've ever had in any business dealing and more importantly, I also consider her a friend. Petra Richardson is the best example of what all real estate professionals should strive to be.

We've moved 6 or 7 times in the past 30+ years and bought and sold homes each time. Petra was able to make this experience by far the best of all others. She was always on top of everything, kept us informed, helped us avoid trouble and get three concurrent offers, but most importantly - sold our house in record time (two weeks) for our listed price.

Let see, where do I even begin to tell you about Petra. We began in early March, I had to find a realtor for my family in San Antonio (SA) and so I started with Mr. Google (Mrs. Google, she knows more). I searched for "the best realty agent in San Antonio." There were many reviews regarding individuals in the business. As I began to sift through the plethora of agents Mrs. Google provided one began to stand out, Petra Richardson. So I mustered up the courage to give her a call and get the ball rolling. Petra had the most inviting personality that I immediately felt at ease. I told her what we were looking for and she immediately went to work. Petra did wonderfully at providing tons of listings of homes that were intriguing to us. We had already been pre-approved so we thought everything was set. However, the bank we chose turned out to be a BIG disappointment (Wells Fargo) and the same with USAA and NFCU. They expected us to put down thousands of dollars that we were totally not prepared to do. We didn't think we needed it to begin with as we expected to use our VA benefits. Anyway, Petra came to the rescue with her resources and we contacted Jason with National Bank of Kansas City. Jason immediately went to work for my husband and I. Within days Jason came back with an approval for more than we anticipated after the first let down with the previously mentioned banks. Also, my husband and I were approved for the loan together!!! Not an option with the "other" banks. We were excited!! Finally our dream was coming true, now if we could only find "the" house. We must of looked at a dozens of homes, or at least it felt like it. We also had to realistically look at our "wants" and our "needs" to find the right home. We originally wanted something with a good deal of acreage, but after looking we could either not afford it or it was too far from the city to meet our needs. We fell in love with a few but they just weren't right. We had to make several trips to SA, which wasn't easy with my husbands or my work schedules. Petra was patient and drove us around tirelessly. Our last visit to SA we looked at more homes before after not deciding to go further with an offer we had made and received a counter offer on. Boy am I glad!!! Petra found the perfect home for us to view and it was hard to choose with the other amazing listings she provided. My husband and I agreed on making an offer for one particular home, we previously had a hard time agreeing on the others. :) So we made an offer on the home; but had received a counter from the sellers. This was great because we had originally wanted to offer their counter amount, but Petra advised to start low. :) So, we accepted their counter and the process from start to finish was extremely smooth and we now OWN our dream home! It may not be what we wanted to begin with, but the home fits our needs and we ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!! We cannot stress enough how instrumental Petra was throughout this process. She is incredibly cool, kind, down to earth and giving each client 100%. I loved the relationship that grew during our time with her. She wasn't just any agent that helped us buy our first home but a good friend that will go above and beyond. My advice is to listen to HER advice. It always paid out! By the way she likes to wear her jeans to work, but will keep it professional if need be!! So keep it casual and classy and get ready to have some fun!!!
