Buying a selling a house can be stressful. This was our first sale, second purchase with Green Star. Let me tell you, the difference between an amazing Realtor and your every day "I'm doing real estate" guy really matters - especially when you get caught up with so many curve balls like we did.
First - the presentation and marketing of our house was by far the best I have ever seen. Levi had some amazing pictures taken, a drone video, and a fabulous video presentation of our home that definitely got attention of prospective buyers. Even with COVID, we were under contract in less than a month (I think it was two and a half weeks). We got an offer for asking and could not be happier.
Second - when there are problems, you want a Green Star caliber agent by your side. There were some items that needed to be addressed on our home. Green Star went out of their way to ensure we had a quality contractor at a quality price.
More problems - our appraisal (despite the comparables we looked at) appraised for 10K under contract price. This prevented us from being able to give the buyer a credit we agreed on since we were buying another house with that money. The buyers agent was ready to let the deal go. Green Star was not. Green Star stepped in with their lender and got the buyer (which was not their customer!!!) financing which was considerably less than what they initially had (over a point less on the rate) AND the lender got them a credit to cover the closing cost we could no longer give them. Meanwhile, the buyers agent sat on their rear playing with his thumbs.
Finally, Closing day. We got our estimate for closing cost the week before closing. We moved a little extra money to cover cost in the event that the costs were a little more than the estimates - because we know that this can happen. 90 minutes before closing, title informs us of the final number is A LOT more than we budgeted for. Green Star put their cape on once again and came to save the day. Levi and Tracy took the difference from their commissions to make everything work and save our new home.
Not a single thing that I have mentioned was something that Levi and Tracy needed to do. But they are EPIC agents. They care about their clients. I mean, they REALLY care. When I say to trust in them and you are in good hands, it is because you really are. They are the true leaders in the industry and if you have are in their area, there is NO ONE better. read more
