Danny Charbel is one of the best realtors we have ever worked with in finding a home…read more We do not use the word 'Best" lightly and we have worked with many realtors over the years, but Danny is top notch. When we met Danny, we took a weekend trip to Texas. We wanted to meet our new realtor and visit some houses in San Antonio and the surrounding area, and we realized during this weekend to Texas we would need more time to find just the right home. The weekend we spent with Danny was a fun time getting to learn about him, and he learned about us so that we knew we were on the right track to find the right home. We needed to find a place to stay quickly once we move to Texas and during the weekend visit luck was on our side, Danny has a fully furnished Airbnb that we decided to rent while we search for our new home. Once we moved to Texas, we rented the Airbnb. We did find a house quickly (thanks to Danny listening to what we were looking for in a home) and we rented the Airbnb for four months while our new home was in the process of completion. Danny is very knowledgeable, professional and listens to his clients. During the closing process, Danny made sure we felt at ease during this process and took all our many questions and all were answered in detail. Danny was with us every step of the way. We cannot express the thanks to Danny Charbel for being the person he is, he made us feel very comfortable in finding a home. On a side note, Danny has great contacts with different trades, that is how we have great plantation shutters, electrician, painters, etc. This is also a great feature with a realtor that has many great connections for his clients.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Danny as first-time home buyers. Danny…read morewent above and beyond to accommodate our needs and is truly an expert in his field. His guidance and knowledge helped us find our perfect home, even as we navigated the buying process from out of state. He is one of the most thorough and communicative professionals I have ever worked with. Danny came to us highly recommended, and still he surpassed our expectations. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in the San Antonio area in need of a well-connected, knowledgeable and personable real estate agent.

We worked with Lusi Dennis and our experience was awful. In the 4 months we were tied to her she…read moregot us three showings and we had two open houses where no one showed up. When we first put our house on the market an investor offered a lowball cash offer, which we declined (but stayed in contact with). Three months later we had to 48 hours to close on our new house or lose it so we asked Lusi to contact the investor to say that we were willing to take the offer. She didn't even bother to reach out to them for several days, which meant we lost that opportunity! In the end, MY HUSBAND found another investor to sell our house to. We contacted them, negotiated, and sold the house. But guess what?! Lusi still got close to $18,000 for US selling our own house. I have no idea what she did to earn that money.

Today, we finally sold our San Antonio, TX house, all thanks to our realtor, Binkan Cinaroglu with…read moreKuper Sotheby's International. Binkan introduced himself with extraordinary professional that put our concerns to rest. His knowledge of the housing market was vast. Also, his work ethics is NOT to be compared to any realtor in San Antonio. No wonder he is top realtor of the year! We've been buying & selling homes since 1996. We never had a house set on the market for more than 6 weeks. However, our San Antonio house was on the market due to us not knowing the value of a season realtor. We tried three other realtors before Binkan, but none of the other realtors could match the tenacity, dedication, nor have the availability of networking at their disposal like Binkan. After almost 6+ months & Binkan's first house showing, we had a buyer! Binkan is a realtor, who can deliver. His work ethics are extraordinary. We are so thankful for doing the research on the top selling realtor of San Antonio. We recommend Binkan Cinaroglu for your realtor because we know his value.

If you use a realtor from this company, be sure to ask them a lot of questions. We used a realtor…read morefrom this company who had over 20 years of experience. They seemed to know the neighborhood. It took us a while to realize that the realtor was 20 years behind the times on how to market homes. We would go to check on the home and find that there were no marketing materials in the home. Or the brochures in the home were not for our home- the realtor had put another of her listing's brochures into our house (understandable because it was identical to our brochures, only a different address!) The MLS listing she wrote for the home contained spelling errors. Emails were never answered Calls were never returned. Or the realtor would call and say, "Did you call?" only to discover that she had meant to call another client. We never got any information about showings. Never got updates from open houses. We finally moved our listing to another company because it became apparent that the agent was disorganized, scatterbrained and incompetent. After we left, the manager of Kuper's sent us a letter praising the agent as one of their best agents. We had to laugh. When we moved to another agency, the new real estate agent was incredulous at the performance of our Kuper's agent. We received more advice, feedback and information from our new agent in the first week than we received in weeks with the Kupers agent. We're wiser now. Anytime you deal with an agent ask them exactly how they plan to market your home. If they don't talk about specific marketing that involves social media and the internet, don't sign with them. If they talk about "staging" and "open houses", they are behind the time on how to market homes. If they don't walk the home with you and give you specific feedback, don't use them. If they don't give you weekly updates on the number of showings and the feedback from those showings, take your business elsewhere.

In a town with such a large military community, I'm surprised that there aren't more reviews for…read moreHousing 1 Source. Perhaps it's because Christine M. wrote such a wonderful, comprehensive review :) It was your review, Christine, that persuaded us to call Housing 1 Source. Thank you! We were living in Marina del Rey and my husband was stationed at LA Air Force Base when we were given short orders to come to San Antonio. It was unexpected and we had a very short time to shore up everything in LA and move. PCSing is always stressful. Having to do it with just a few weeks notice adds even more pressure. While researching real estate agents in the San Antonio area and asking for advice from other military spouses, we were directed to Housing 1 Source. I gave them a call. Told them what our needs were and was assigned a realtor. We made arrangements to go house hunting in San Antonio. Before our trip, our realtor sent us links to hundreds of homes that met our criteria for our review. By the time we came to SA, we had a list of potentials. Dave (our realtor) drove us all over SA and educated us about the different neighborhoods - good school district vs. bad, low crime neighborhoods, easier commutes, access to conveniences, etc. We looked at both rentals and homes for sale. We looked at new developments and older homes. We covered as much ground as we could in one week. At the end of the week, we chose to buy a home and flew back to LA to pack. There was a small period of disconnect between us, H1S, and our home builder. Things eventually worked out and we moved to SA and into our home... although a week after we had anticipated. H1S helped us set up all of our utilities. The staff patiently answered our slew of questions. They even allowed us to use their office as our office in the week that we were "homeless" (living in a hotel). We had access to their computers...were able to print and fax...all free of charge. Water, coffee, & tea were always available. Overall, our experience with Housing 1 Source was very good. We'd recommend them to any military members who are moving to San Antonio. And yes, their services truly are FREE!
