Wonderful presentation, but with uninspiring substance. We bought our first home in May 2015 and…read morehad a mixed experience with the Winzenried team. Here's the summary: The good: 1) A great first impression during a meeting with Matt. We described what we were looking for and we had an engaging conversation. 2) Paperwork was easy to sign and was ready on time. 3) Matt's team got us in the door of every property we requested to see, and did so quickly. Even his office staff helped out during some home visits (including the home we bought). 4) Gifts, baked good, and event invites from Matt and his team. 5) Hannah was very helpful and was a lot of fun to look at homes with. If she becomes an independent agent, I'd recommend her. The bad: 1) We did most of the work of looking for homes ourselves and found the home we wanted by looking at the MLS ourselves. More often than not, we were trying to track down our agents to let us into the houses we found on our own. We did receive automated emails with properties that supposedly matched our criteria, but this automated system could not (or did not) weed out homes in neighborhoods we didn't want to live in. We were shown a few houses that were recommended by Matt, but I had some reservations about one of these (see point #2). 2) Conflicts of interest with the selling agent. We were shown one foreclosed home that was represented by an affiliate of Matt's parent company, which meant that this parent company was representing both the buyers and the sellers. When I asked Matt about this being a conflict of interest, he simply stated that this was standard practice and it was not, in fact, a conflict of interest. To be fair, this practice is not illegal; however, I felt that he didn't take my concern seriously and I was no longer confident that my best interests were being supported. 3) Some of the staff appeared new to negotiating with seller's agents. In one negotiation, we were assured that a particular bidding tactic would either win us the home or at least open up further negotiation--unfortunately, we lost the home without a chance to counter. To be fair, the buyer's agent seemed more disappointed and shocked than we were--I can only assume it gets dirty in the trenches of real estate. The context: According to every real estate agent we came across, the Spring/Summer of 2015 was exceptionally busy. It was likely that Matt's team had more clients than they could handle, which may have explained the lack of individualized service. At the end of the day, we had mostly positive or neutral experiences with the staff and we got a great home--we only wish we weren't the ones having to work so hard.

Dan and his team sold our Faircrest home in Madison this year. We purchased our new home out of…read morestate with the equity we had in our Madison home, and desired to move from home to home. Dan's team was nothing short of amazing. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful and knew their craft. The stager was so helpful and the photographer was awesome. Our pictures for the listing were phenomenal, people who had been in our house commented on how spectacular it looked. Since we were packing and getting ready to move, we staged & took pictures in waves as we packed and shuffled boxes around. Dan made a coming-soon listing for us and added pictures as they came in. We had an unexpected early closing date on our new home and Dan was extremely helpful in assisting us with some last minute things that needed to be taken care of prior to officially going on the market. Once we were moved, our house went on the market with an ideal sell date of 10 weeks [by the close of the year.] We were under contract in about 4 weeks and closed in 8 of our listing. Dan's market analysis really was a key component in making sure we were priced competitively to get our offer. Dan and his team kept us informed throughout the process and we never felt out of the loop or that we were being ignored, this was especially appreciated because we were out of state during some of this process. We would definitely use Dan as our agent again without hesitation if we needed to purchase or sell property in the Madison area.

Stunning transformation in short time!…read more I couldn't be happier with the updates to my bedrooms. the entire team at Property Revival was a pleasure to work with from the initial consultation through the final reveal. They listened carefully to my needs and preferences, and provided expert guidance throughout the design process with zero pressure...just an eye on education from a team of experts. Jerry oversaw the project and ins and outs, while his team (Travis, Andrew, etc) stayed to that vision and provided expert craftsmanship. I was kept informed every step of the way and all questions were promptly addressed. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished space are truly impressive. The rooms and work exceeded my expectations, and I'm grateful to PR for bringing this vision to life. I'd highly recommend them for design, build and renovation. Thank you!!

Alex is an amazing realtor. He's so good that I sent the president of First Weber (who knew my…read morefather) this message. Is Alex Saloutos real? A realtor who thinks about us first, and not him? Let me explain. You already know the first part of this; but the latest chapter is new. We want to buy a lot. Alex spends a lot of time showing us lots and does an electronic mapping thing that works great with my personality. After a long search, we find one we love. It is, I forget maybe $99,000. I suggest an offer around $91,000. Alex builds a spreadsheet of golf course lots in Dane County and notes that this one started on the market 3 years ago at maybe $109K. He thinks it can be had for under $80K. We make an offer below $70K, and settle at $71K and make the purchase. We are ecstatic. Melanie, though, really wants to live IN Madison. After completely designing a house for the lot in SketchUp (OK, I can be psychotically driven); I say, "If that's where you want to live; let's expand/remodel your old house". $300K later it is great. But we still own the lot, which is listed at $79,900 to be virtually the same price as the adjacent lot. Early this week we get an offer of $74K. Alex researches the offer and talks to the seller's realtor. He learns that they want to build a BIG house on a golf course (like the neighbor's house), and need two lots to do that. He learns that they have an accepted offer on the adjacent lot, contingent on closing with our lot. There are only three lots in our subdivision left, and only two adjoining. Alex advises holding on our price, and countering at full price; but offering them a copy of the detailed survey that we paid for ($925), which costs us nothing now. That's gutsy! His best interest would have been served by saying, "take it!" You understand better than anyone that one way to get easy commissions is to get your clients to underprice their homes, or advise them to buy at premium prices. The next day they accepted the full price offer Between the two transactions; Alex took us from a loss of around $20K (plus taxes and transaction fees), to a net profit even after fees and commissions. I can't recommend Alex too much. We will sing his praises to everyone interested in a realtor. I have a vCard for Alex that I send to anyone interested in a realtor. You really can build your business by serving clients' interests, and not going for the quick gains. Jeff Boldt, PE

Working with Catherine Evans at Stark Realtors was truly a five-star experience from start to…read morefinish. From our very first conversation, it was clear that she genuinely cared about my needs--not just as a client, but as a person. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for, walked me through every step of the process with patience and transparency, and consistently went the extra mile to make sure nothing slipped through the cracks. Whether it was arranging last-minute showings, answering late-night questions with a calm and reassuring presence, Catherine was always there--available, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. What impressed me most was her integrity and dedication. After my offer was accepted and before I closed, she took several trips to the property with me to meet with contractors, sometimes over 90 minutes each time. I never felt like just another transaction; I felt genuinely supported every step of the way. Thanks to Catherine, I not only found the perfect home, but also gained a trusted advisor (and now, a friend) in the real estate world. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home--you won't find someone more committed, professional, or kind. -- Kim Pawlak
