I highly recommend Brent Rice when searching for your next home! I was a first time home buyer and knew very little about the home buying process and market trends at the time. I decided to choose Brent because he seemed extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market. His knowledge came through during our initial walk throughs; he would point out items to look for beyond aesthetics, items related to safety, structural integrity, etc., that many young, first time home buyers may not be aware of. Also of importance, I decided to choose Brent because after our first meeting I got the sense that

When I contacted Brent Rice to help me find a rental home I was at the end of my rope. I had tried for several months to find a house on my own and realized that I couldn’t do it on my own. I needed someone who knows the ins and outs of this business. I called Brent saying, “help! I have one week to find a home and move! Can you help me?” A house I had been approved for and waiting on for over 60 days did not pan out and I was at the end of my notice period where I was. Brent said, “I’ll send you a list of the docs we need to get this done, get them to me asap.” Brent the same day got

Working with Brent was wonderful!! When I called, he always tried to set up a showing as soon as possible. When we walked into houses, he immediately started pointing out cracks and other items that we needed to take into account. When we put in contracts on several different houses, he was helpful and wise. When we got in a bidding war, he held our hand and advised us. (We got the house!) He set us up with an inspector and helped us ask for money to fix certain items. From day one, his service was outstanding!

JoAnn and Brent Rice are simply amazing! I have never sold a home before and they were there every step of the way to explain my options and were quick to respond when I had questions and concerns. They went above and beyond to get me top dollar! I could not have found a better duo! Thank you both for everything you have done and for sure will use you in the future!

We couldn't be happier. Brent was able to position our house for a quick sale and deftly led us through negotiations with the buyer. Even more surprising was what he was able to do for us on the buy side. In the past we had bought houses (new construction) without an agent, as a lawyer and a business executive we figured we had it covered. Brent was able to identify opportunities to negotiate a better price and he alerted us to several opportunities and potential issues throughout the build and closing process. We had no idea what we were missing and would enthusiastically hire him again.

We are going to sell our house! We feel very luck to have found Joann as our home staging consultant!!!
Here’s how Joann is fantastic. Before she came to our house, we asked her lots and lots of questions (we are a bit anxious about putting the house on the market). She was incredibly patient in answering all of our many questions. That she is a fabulous decorator goes without saying - we think she goes the extra mile in that she is a warm and caring person who takes her customers’ needs seriously.
In our interaction, Joann was supremely professional, walking through our house from outside

Brent was absolutely wonderful with our home search and everything we could have asked for as first time homeowners in Texas. I initially contacted him to negotiate the house we were renting as the owner decided to sell the house. During the process there were some delays and we started looking for alternatives - another rental place, or a houses to purchase in the same school district as I don’t want to change the school district for my high schooler. We didn’t have lot of time as the owner of our rental place gave us the notice to vacate the place. He listened to our needs and our concerns

Brent Rice is the BEST Realtor in this area. Hard working, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and attentive. We received multiple offers in a few weeks and managed to close the house in less than a month. We did not have much time to waste and he made it happen. Additionally, his wife, Joanne, was super helpful as well. She helped us with the staging and design. Will recommend them for anyone who wants to sell their home fast and with great value.

The Ultimate Realtor...You've found!
In 2014 Brent Rice sold my home in 3 days, just North of Frisco, TX.
Then December 2016, he made buying rural land in East Texas, a walk in the park.
The first thing he did was teach me about how to sell a home. Creating a welcoming, refreshing environment that the buyer feels comfortable in.
From the way he took pictures of the home (Yes, this agent can take good pics), to the way he staged things, Brent is the best at what he does.
If you just tell him what you want to accomplish, he'll help you chart a course to make it happen smoothly.

There are not enough superlatives to describe Brent Rice, of the Rice Group, and the excellence provided to us in both selling our previous home and buying a new home. He has an amazing work ethic and attention to detail we have not encountered in any of the other realtors we've used in the buying/selling process of various homes over the years. He carefully leads you through the process, knows the market(s) inside and out, is available night and day for any and all questions/concerns and has truly been a blessing in our lives.
