Louis and Nikki went above and beyond. We interviewed several realtors before deciding to go with them. We were looking for someone who would be consultative, service-oriented, and had our best interest in mind. After a nice initial interview, they gave us a reference list of 10 people. I called all of them and everyone I talked to was super happy with them. Our own experience was no exception. They were both super patient with us and very willing to go all over the place to lots and lots of houses until we found the right place. They're a great team with complementary strengths. Louis has an eye for recognizing the good and bad things about a property, what would need to be replaced, and identifying factors that would affect resale value. Nikki has an awesome skillset from her marketing background and is absolutely someone you'd want in your corner. They are both great at negotiating: Louis is great at having a calm approach as needed, and Nikki is great at getting the deal done. She can be as nice or as tough as you need. I would also add that we were looking for someone who would be able to act quickly in this crazy market. The DiBellas were absolutely awesome in this regard. We were very well positioned to move quickly, and I think that made a difference for u s. It helped that we worked with a great lender they knew: Jeff Kramer from Highlands Mortgage. Amanda Gardiner from Goosehead insurance was another awesome member of our dream team. read more

I want to express how impressed I was with Tim Nelson as my realtor in helping me and my wife to find a new home. Tim has unbounded energy, a ceaseless desire to understand our requirements, an eye for detail, and patience to listen to concerns then providing strong resolutions throughout the buying process. Tim made himself available as quickly as possible, responded to all questions, and he followed through on every issue and request. His knowledge of the market and the contracting process were invaluable, and he provided trusted advice as we moved through from bid to close. Tim's focus on understanding his clients' requirements were a refreshing change to what I have experienced with other realtors, starting with his initial process of taking inventory of our likes and dislikes. He then referred to those several times throughout the search process to ensure we didn't make a decision we would later regret. I have not experienced this type of diligence with any other realtor, and I believe it is what sets Tim apart from the crowd. I would strongly recommend Ti to anyone looking for an outstanding realtor in the North TX market. Great work Tim!!! read more

We had thought about not even using a realtor because the market is so insane in this area, but after looking into that we decided to use a professional. We are SO GLAD that we did! We were waaaayyy off on pricing and would have asked too little. Allyson and the Cheney Group looked at our home, discussed an asking price and we were shocked. It was $60k more than we were thinking of asking. Within two days we had four solid offers and got $25K over asking price and a few other perks like free lease back, etc. We would not have known to ask for all of this had we not had Allyson. The Cheney Group performs like a star track relay team, handing off the baton effortlessly from the prep people, to negotiation, to closing. So professional and it made the process easy for us and for the buyers and even after realtor fees we made more than we would have on our own selling. I HIGHLY recommend Allyson and her team if you are needed a real estate professional. read more

I never had a chance to thank Ashley House for the great job she did in placing my kids in Frisco at the Trails. As a broker of my own company, I referred Ashley and The Cheney Group based on the accolades and great references I saw. She was on top of her game, knowledgeable in all areas, listened to what my son and his wife wanted and made sure she found them the right house in a great family-friendly community. I've been to visit my kids multiple times and love the house, the neighborhood, the convenience and newness of Frisco. I might add that having them purchase several months ago was a key move considering the value of homes have gone up in the spring and now summer market. I've never met Ashley but she did a great job for my kids. I'd recommend The Cheney Group to anyone transferring in buying and/or to any seller who really wants a quality team to sell their home. Thank you Ashley! read more

I would highly recommend The Cheney Group and our listing agent Ashley House. Ashley impressed me with her knowledge and suggestions on how to appeal to buyers and receive top dollar for our home. Other homes in our neighborhood had been sitting unsold for 60-120 days. Our house sold within 45 days for more than any other home in our neighborhood had ever sold. We interviewed four different agents from different companies, prior to choosing Ashley and The Cheney Group. I would highly recommend doing this if you are selling a home as it helps you to arrive at a realistic asking price. Another reason we chose Ashley and The Cheney Group is because Jeff Cheney has a very good reputation in the Frisco area. He has held numerous public offices and is currently running for the Mayor of Frisco. We would highly recommend Ashley House and The Cheney Group if you are selling or buying a home. read more

Nikki and Louis are the most amazing individuals. They are a living example of what most people would define as utmost professionals. We looked at numerous properties (and some properties numerous times) during our home search in Frisco. My husband and I had very busy schedules and we were always accommodated. They were not only always responsive, but never gave us the feeling that they were ever inconvenienced, or put off by anything. In addition, Nikki and Louis' knowledge of the area and ability to give recommendations on everything from lenders to hardwood floors makes them the best of the best and a true resource. They're honest advice and sincere buy in to our best interests made this a smooth and assuring process. A pleasurable experience for us in every way. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home! read more

Words can not even begin to express my gratitude for Louis and Nikki DiBella. They are Ana amazing team. From helping us look for a house to being there when we decided to build. Always answering our questions quickly and the unlimited knowledge they have with real estate. When we unexpectedly had to move and pull out of our build, they were there to help us through the process. Nikki went above and beyond to help us get our earnest money back. They truly are the best and I recommended them highly. If you are looking for someone who knows the area, has superior knowledge with homes, and is there to support you and help you every step of the way. Louis and Nikki Dibella and the Cheney group are where you need to go! read more

We worked with Ashley House and thoroughly enjoyed our experience! She is very knowledgeable of the area but more importantly, in tune with your needs. We were very impressed with her ability to hone in on our specific likes and dislikes as we looked at 25+ houses. She asks the right questions, gives her perspective of the neighborhood and market and makes sure you are comfortable with the decisions. Like any realtor, the decision is yours; however, Ashley makes the process so smooth it feels like a non-event which is key when making an important decision. In addition, she is a wealth of contacts to make the transition and those home improvement projects easy to tackle. We certainly highly recommend her! read more

We worked with buyer specialist Carrie Himel. In one word, Carrie was amazing. We relocated to the Dallas suburbs for my job, and due to timing we could not see any houses until we were actually in Texas. She worked with us through a very whirlwind house-hunting mission and a bit of a nail-biter when we finally found "our" house - all the time being perfectly graceful, professional, tenacious, and responsive. She really took the time to get to know us and her personal service level is simply unmatched. We would highly recommend Carrie to anyone looking for a home in North Texas! read more

Ashley House was our realtor for the purchase of our new home along with the sell of our previous home. Our house sold the first weekend at asking with our specific lease back terms (not easy to do with the inventory available) and worked with us and the builder to make sure our new home was finished on time. She was a relentless advocate for our family during the process of both transactions and made what normally is a very painful process into a good one. I highly recommend the Cheney Group and have nothing but good things to say about Ashley House. She was amazing! read more

Nikki & Louis are a great realtor team. They are extremely accessible and very knowledgeable. They take the extra steps to understand your needs and provide a customized approach at home buying. We bought our home with them. They work as a team and complement each other's skill sets very well. They provide an honest and fair opinion and are extremely responsive. Our home buying experience would not have been complete without them. We would highly recommend them for any prospective buyers in the North Dallas area. It has been an utmost pleasure to work with them. read more

My experience with Carrie Himel was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and responded to our questions quickly. And we had a lot of questions as we were not familiar with the area. Carrie works hard and is fun to be around. Finding a house can sometimes be stressful, but she made it very enjoyable. She was always upfront and honest. She didn't just want to sell us a house, she wanted to help us find the house that was perfect for us. And she did - we are in a house we love, in an area we love. We couldn't be happier! read more

My wife and I used Nikki and Louis DiBella for our buyer's agents and the Cheney group for the seller agent. Nikki and Louis make a powerful and wonderful team. They work together and were able to leverage their different skills to deal with the various other personalities when we were negotiating for a new home resulting in our getting the house we wanted!!! Not only were Nikki and Louis responsive and knowledgeable but there were fun to work with and guided us through any areas of question. The BEST team in town! read more

We worked with Carrie Himel, who helped us find a rental home in the fast moving Plano Market. At one point we were able to check 6 houses in under 2 hours, just because we only had small windows on the weekend to see homes. She found many good options and when we selected one, she made all the paperwork easy and straight forward. We had some last minute questions that might make some agents get frustrated but she always took the time to get whatever info we needed, a true professional. read more

Nikki and Louis ROCK! They were patient and knowledgeable. They gave us all the information we needed to make our decision. They fought to get us a great price on our home and we're there through our walk through to make sure everything was perfect for us. They followed through and check on us even after we closed on our gorgeous home in Mustangs Lakes. LOVE THIS COUPLE!!! Thank you Nikki and Louis! read more
