“When my husband rec'd orders to transfer to Ft Hood a year ago, we sent out a generic email to all the real estate agents in the area. We were corresponding from Hawaii so our email was received at 2 am Killeen time. We were shocked when Rick Ott emailed us 10 minutes later and called us within 30 minutes with several prospects. He is former military and understands the needs of the military family. When we arrived, he cleared his schedule. Finding us a home was a priority. He kept us clear of the garbage, offered opinions and in the end we found our home. But the good service did not end there. He was with us every step of the way...inspection, questions in the middle of the day/night and of course closing. About a month after closing I received a check in the mail...WOW! … On top of that he is still answering questions I have about electricity companies and whatever else I am concerned about. This guy goes above the call of duty to make you happy....and he makes sure that you don't get taken advantage of during the deal making. When I hear that friends are PCS'ing, I give them Rick's number. Everyone that I have sent to him has been pleased.”

“The reason I chose Rick Ott to work with rather than any other Realtor is because he is dedicated and committed to making his clients happy. He will not stop working until he has met all of your needs and wants in a home. The thing that impressed me most about Rick was the way he treated me and my family like we were a part of his family. There is no greater feeling than having this man on your side when either buying or selling a home. Plain and simple, Rick Ott is the MAN!”

“My wife and I chose to work with Rick because out of all the real estate companies his was the first to respond to our request to view some properties that we were interested in. We wanted to find a house that was a certain size with a certain amount a bedrooms and baths. Rick did a great job on finding the home that fit our criteria. After all that he did and exceptional job narrowing those homes down to what he knew we would like. We were a very persnickety couple and he took the challenge and he found us a great home. Rick is a great person and throughout our house hunt he seemed to make it personal. He wanted to find us the house we were looking for just as much as we did. He was more like a friend than a salesman. Other agents we talked to from other companies were more like car salesman trying to make a sale. This is our life we are starting not trying to buy a demolition Durby car. But, Rick didn't seem to care about just making a sale he seemed he wanted us to be able to have the house we wanted even if it meant he couldn't make the sale himself. I’m glad we had a chance to work with Rick Ott and that our first house was purchased through RE/MAX the Rick Ott Division!!”

"We had used other real estate agents in the past, but none of them even came close to demonstrating the amount of professionalism and expertise exuded by Mr. Ott. Our current home is new construction and on numerous occasions my wife and I were ready to back out of the deal.  We were sick and tired of dealing with non-compliant builders. Thanks to Rick's vigorous work ethic and commitment to his clients there was not one single issue that we as home buyers had to compromise on. I feel as though Rick's most notable quality is his ability to relate with his clients and fight for their rights and interests. I will always recommend Rick Ott to any of my family and closest friends, I know he will treat them right and close the deal they deserve."

“Rick was our first real estate agent on our first home. Rick's expert advice aided us in getting the home we wanted at the best price possible. The best thing about Rick is that he'll tell you what's on his mind about the house, whether it’s worth your purchase or not. Another positive attribute is that his main concern is the home buyer. He was such a great agent that not only did we sell our home through him again but we recommended him to some close friends that bought and sold through him as well. Rick is now considered as one of our good friends. Outstanding agent!”

“Rick is a good friend and former Soldier of mine from the Army. Rick assisted me with changing property managers for my rental property and has aided me with finding the right people needed to get things done.

I would recommend Rick to anyone looking for a home in his area.”





- Mike Bradford





“FIRST CLASS EXPRIENCE! I was in Iraq for the whole process, deployed. Rick bent over backwards and did everything in his power and then some to take care of me. I will use Rick for every real estate need I have. I recommend him to EVERYONE. I had met with a few agents before I went with Rick and I don’t regret going with him. Please, I beg you to take advantage of an agent who works for you on your time.”

“The Ott Group was a great experience for me and my husband. They always had our home in the local house hunter guides and we got a good amount of showings as well. Their honesty and professionalism has us doing business with them whenever we need it. They are a great group of people! :)”

“We had a wonderful experience with Rick! My husband and I moved from GA in July of 04. Rick helped us understand the area and showed the houses we requested. I feel that he was working for us, not just to make a sale. I will tell all my friends that Rick will take good care of you! He will be my first choice if we have to leave this area.”




- Amber Maney





 

 

“We chose Rick to sell our first home when we noticed that his homes consistently sold in our neighborhood and were very pleased with the results. So when we decided to sell our rental home, it was a no-brainer! Because of the depressed economy we expected the process to take significantly longer than our first sale (which was four weeks).  We were impressed when we had an offer and a closing date within two weeks. I appreciate that he knows the Killeen/ Ft Hood market and was able to price our home appropriately and get it sold.  We don't live in the area so I was initially concerned about taking care of any needs at the house, but Rick took care of everything. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone for their real estate needs.”

“When my husband was deployed we talked about buying our first home, I called many companies and all but one really cared what I had to say. I ended up calling Re/Max and speaking to Rick Ott and his phone ethic was professional but also he was very funny. We ended up waiting a whole year and I never called, but I was always was on Rick's and his team’s minds. One day we called and when I tried to explain who we were Rick didn't need an explanation.  He already knew who we were and from day one he has been there for us. We wanted someone to explain everything and to make our dreams come true.  He succeeded and surpassed our ideal realtor. We choose three homes to go look at and Rick had a suggestion home, and low and behold, he knew us, because we are now living in that house. Every time a friend is in search of a home I tell them Rick is the best and that to this day we can call him and he will help in every way he can.  We trust him so much when we decide it is time to move on to greener pastures we will have Rick sell our home and maybe even have him find the next one.”

“First of all, we would like to thank Mr. Ott for his professionalism and care he gave to us as his clients. He was professional at all times and kept us abreast of all that was going on with the sale of our home. I have and will always recommend Mr. Ott to friends and family that are in need of selling or buying a home. Once again Mr. Ott, my wife and I thank you very much for assisting us.”

“I found out about him in the internet. From the first day that I spoke to him he was very helpful. He exceeded all of my expectations.  I recommend him to anyone trying to purchase a property in the Fort Hood area.”




- Angel L. Urbina





 

“We Chose to work with Rick because he had a very professional mannerism, was good natured, and was honest and upfront about anything that we had questions about. Being first-time home buyers, we had lots of things to learn, and instead of pulling the "wool over our eyes," Rick took the time to explain and walk us through the process.  I would recommend Rick to all our friends and acquaintances. Rick is approachable, thorough in his work and following up, and a professional in his field.”




- Merrita and Justin Powell





 

“One in a million real estate person. The rest of the real estate sales people could learn a lot from this guy and his competent staff. I have owned over 13 properties and have had only 2 great agents.  Rick is one of them. They are ahead of every known task in the process and detail orientated. The term proactive best describes them as compared to most agents’ reactive or no active status. Thanks for the great job.”




- Manuel Silva





 

“Very efficient and helpful with any and all home questions regarding purchase. Informative on all inquiries we had during our experience. Met all our expectations with being a first time homebuyer and would recommend him to anyone! Had a great experience for buying our first home.  :)"




-Adrianne and Arturo Aguilar





 

“We did not live in the area so went online to see what was available. My son is stationed at Fort Hood and wanted to buy a house. Rick emailed us and told us to contact him when my son returned from a tour in Iraq. We met with him and told him what we were looking for. He made a list of several houses for us to see and my son found one that he liked. Rick made sure my son paid a fair price and walked him through all the details. He made sure any repairs, etc. were taken care of. Anytime we had a question or concern he took the time to find the answer. Great realtor to work with and we would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.”




- Diane Chaney





“Rick was recommended to me by a friend. He was very professional, friendly, and extremely helpful. He and his team went out of their way to make my house selling experience better than most can expect in this market. I would recommend Rick to anybody who needs to buy or sell a home. He will work to make sure it happens for you.”

“I was very satisfied with his performance. I sold one of my properties to him, later sold the rest one by one through him just because he was very professional in dealing with people. I would recommend to anybody anytime.”
