We’ve helped over 500,000 home buyers and sellers find their ideal real estate agent. Here’s what some of them have had to say about our service.
“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.”
“The referral of Mike Frank was the best decision we made! Mike Frank is detailed, thorough, responsive and a joy to work with. He went above and beyond to deliver us the kind of customer service we could only have hoped and imagined. Results and not excuses! Thank you for this referral!”
“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!!”
“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!!!”
“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.”
“It was great! We were put in touch with the best real estate agent around!”
“Dena was absolutely incredible. I could not be happier.”
“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.”
“Agent Pronto put me in contact with one of the best agents in this area. She was in contact with me within a day or two. It set me in the right direction towards buying my new home.”
“Excellent service from both Donna and Lisa!”
