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 was great! We were put in touch with the best real estate agent around!”
“James called me within the hour and was available to meet with me in just a few days. He put the listing up and it sold in 10 days. Very happy with the result!”
“Steve rocks! He was on top of things and kept me informed as issues arose. He pulled me off the ledge a few times and he was surprised that I called to thank him after the closing. He's a keeper.”
“Dena was absolutely incredible. I could not be happier.”
“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. ”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!!!”
“Great service, sold my home in just a few months!”
“Kathy Volpe was fantastic! The seller's realtor and lawyer were dropping the ball. Kathy did work they should have and kept the ball rolling and make the sale happen when it needed to happen, so I had a place to live when I left Minnesota for Illinois.”
