Success!

By Maredith Paduano, Sapphire, NC, Verified Reviewer

In May 2017, my husband and I decided to sell our Summer vacation townhouse in beautiful Sapphire Valley, North Carolina. We began with a web search for real estate agents in that area.

During that search, I found the website for HomeLight.com. I entered my information and received an immediate response, providing me with the names of several agents. The agents called me immediately, and after initial contacts, my husband and I set appointments with three of those recommended by HomeLight.com.

We chose “The Cone Team,” (Tina and Alan Cone) because they were the most professional. They provided us with an honest appraisal, and a well-organized and aggressive plan to market and sell our property. Tina and Alan Cone were always available to answer our questions, and we were confident that they would get the job done! I am happy to report that by September 15th our townhouse was sold and the check was in the bank!

The HomeLight.com service provided an excellent referral and screening tool that saved us the time of searching for quality agents in our area. I highly recommend using the HomeLight.com website to find agents in any location that are professional, knowledgeable, efficient, competent, and caring. I am certain that when we decide to buy or sell again, I will definitely utilize HomeLight.com.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Excellent, successful and simple experience

By Steve Buck, Beltsville, MD, Verified Reviewer

Thanks very much for the opportunity to review the HomeLight website and the agent I chose.

Jeff's performance on my home sale was great. I chose Jeff because of his track record of selling homes in my area. This information was available on the HomeLight web site. Upon our first meeting, it was clear that Jeff was an experienced professional, knowledgeable about both the process of selling a house and about the local area and neighborhood.

Jeff was able to assign a fair price to the house and get that asking price. It was challenging for me as the executor of the estate to complete the sale. Jeff helped to set a schedule for clearing the house and settlement. The house also needed some minor repairs which Jeff was able to help with. He had workmen make the repairs at a fair price. He was also able to get a small company to help load and haul away the items remaining in the house.

There were no surprises at settlement. It took less than half an hour. Hiring a HomeLight agent to sell the house simplified the process of managing the estate and reduced my worries and concerns. In the same situation, I would easily check HomeLight for someone to sell my house. The reviews on the site were on target, the agent I chose did a great job. It if wasn't for HomeLight I never would have known about him. I've already recommended HomeLight to many of my friends.

Thanks.

Realtor services through HomeLight

By Leslie Wells, Naples, FL, Verified Reviewer

When we decided to sell our home, it was bittersweet and we did not know where to start. The realtor that had helped us many years earlier was no longer in the business so I looked into HomeLight hoping it would make it easier. It definitely did. We looked through the realtors and could see reviews and results, which helped us to decide on a great guy.

After he came to our home and sat down with us, we felt at ease and realized how forward thinking he is. He shared with us the new tools he would use, which excited us. Our home had four offers within the first week two at full asking price. He was with us the whole way during the process and took great care of us.

Thank you HomeLight for connecting us with one of the best in the business in our area!

Highly recommend HomeLight

By Lauren Wynn, Virginia, Verified Reviewer

Moving as we did to a new area where we knew no one, we were concerned about finding a reputable real estate agent and were hesitant to rely solely on online reviews. I was so relieved to find HomeLight. They took the guesswork out of choosing an agent and paired us with two local realtors who had the knowledge and expertise to guide us through our home buying experience. Their process was quick, their people were professional and friendly, and the experience we had with the agents they recommended was superb.

HomeLight linked us to a perfect realtor match. Sold our house in a week!

By Kelly Passineau, Jackson, WI, Verified Reviewer

We sold our first house and wasn't really sure who the best realtor would be to help us. I found HomeLight on a web search, provided some initial information, and they called me in less than a minute. From there, we had an email with names of realtors they recommended. This was such a huge help for us. Our realtor recommendation was perfect! She helped explain everything, and the whole process went very smoothly.

We would definitely recommend HomeLight service to anyone selling a house and not sure of a realtor to call. Thanks for your help!

Best regards.

Fantastic service from HomeLight

By Leslie Scalzo, Southport, NC, Verified Reviewer

HomeLight is a wonderful service that matched me successfully with a realtor in the area I wanted to move to. This realtor (Lea Anne Werder of Coldwell Banker in Southport NC) was so helpful to me in finding the home that met my needs and desires. I really appreciate HomeLight service for putting me together with my realtor who has become a friend.

Thank you HomeLight!

My experience with HomeLight

By Joseph Calabrese, Virginia, Verified Reviewer

We own an investment property just outside of Culpeper, Virginia. After the tenants left and the renovation work was complete, the next step was to find a realtor. I have to say we were very concerned about getting the house on the market so late in the calendar year, not to mention finding a qualified, successful realtor to market the property.

We heard about a referral service called HomeLight. They refer up to three of the most successful realtors (based on sales) where your property is located. We liked what we read about HomeLight, so I inquired about their services from their website.

Within hours, three realtors contacted me offering their services. I started with two of them; asking questions about their experience and sales success in our area. We agreed to "walk" the property to determine how they would market the property. Both realtors were very engaging and very successful in their own real estate careers. After the presentations were completed, we chose Amy Cherry Taylor.

This may sound rather incredible, but within eight days, we were under contract! She advised on a selling price and aggressively marketed the property. There were six, maybe eight showings, and then we received a signed contract. We were pleased that the contract reflected a price that was 96% of the listing price. Since Ms. Taylor brought a qualified buyer already approved for a mortgage to the table, we settled on the property 30 days later.

We were amazed and impressed that the transaction went so quickly but more importantly, went so smoothly. The next time I consider selling residential real estate, my first inquiry will be to HomeLight. Without HomeLight, I never would have found our realtor. They were outstanding and won't disappoint you.

Great experience

By Steven Rauschkolb, Chester, NJ, Verified Reviewer

When I first contacted HomeLight, I was a bit skeptical about the type of real estate agent that they might recommend. But I was quickly surprised when within 24 hours I began to receive calls from some very impressive, highly qualified agents.

After interviewing several agents, we finally settled on Denise Mortenson from Keller Williams in Morristown, New Jersey. Not only was Denise highly knowledgeable about our market, but it turned out that she had recently sold a home right on our street. Our entire experience with Denise was outstanding. She became our trusted adviser through all of the typical ups and downs of the sales process. Her excellent customer service and advice resulted in the sale of our home at just a fraction below asking price.

The bottom line is that by utilizing HomeLight, we found our dream agent who made the entire selling process much less stressful.

A great way to find a great realtor!

By Richard Brown, Michigan, Verified Reviewer

I am very pleased with my experience with HomeLight. We were able to not only list our home with a qualified professional, our recommended realtor got an offer $20k higher than a previous realtor was willing to list for.

We were more than a transaction to the realtor they found for us.

HomeLight will save you time when sorting through all available realtors

By Amanda Rang, Belton, TX, Verified Reviewer

Without the services provided by HomeLight, my home may very well still be on the market. Inspired by social media and other enlightened mass communications, HomeLight hones in on the up and coming (and savvy established) realtors who put in the footwork to get your home sold. HomeLight matched me with several top realtors, and my realtor was the cream of the crop! HomeLight has a vast database and can suit your needs. Thank you HomeLight!
