Home buyers and sellers love Agent Pronto.
Here’s what some of the 400,000+ home buyers and sellers have had to say about our service.
“It's been great working with Bobbi - she is very responsive (never once missed a phone call or text), always on point but never pushy, be it her advice on pricing changes or negotiating an offer or following up on repairs. She arranged multiple open houses, brought in a steady stream of potential buyers, helped us a lot thru the whole process, made it easy for us even after we moved out of state and got our home sold just before the winter hit. Loved working with her and would definitely recommend her. ”
“Working with James was a terrific experience. He is most knowledgeable and realistic when evaluating real estate. He always kept me informed and had timely calls regarding our next decisions. I recommend him most highly.”
“Dena was absolutely incredible. I could not be happier.”
“Mike was by far the best agent I have ever worked with and I'm 73 and done this many times. Mike was very knowledgeable but never pushy. He is very gracious, well-organized, and was always punctual. He also was excellent after the sale and all his recommendations ended well. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone.”
“Thank you, Agent Pronto, for recommending Karl. He was an amazing agent and just got the job done! I would recommend your service and Karl to any future home sellers or buyers!!!”
“Excellent! Very pleased with the process and the agent I chose to work with. It was expedient and simple, which worked perfectly for me as I'm located in another state away from the property I sold!!”
“Cheri Gibson was the best I have ever dealt with. She was professional at all times. She answered all our questions. She is very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell/buy. The house was listed and sold in one day.”
“It was great! We were put in touch with the best real estate agent around!”
“I found a great agent! We were able to sell the property within three days after it was listed. It was a pleasure working with Diana Matichyn and her team. I would highly recommend her.”
“Great service, sold my home in just a few months!”
