Following the transaction, GMAC Real Estate agents ask their customers to honestly rate their performance through a survey conducted and tabulated by an independent, third party company. Through Premier Service, the company has received an unprecedented 94 percent customer satisfaction rating following more than 100,000 completed customer surveys.

"We did an inordinate amount of research before deciding to affiliate with GMAC Real Estate," said Beth Wolff, broker/owner of Beth Wolff GMAC Real Estate. "In the Houston market, we've carefully built a reputation over the past 29 years by providing superior customer service. In GMAC Real Estate, we saw a shared culture of commitment to our customers and to our sales partners as well."
