In leaving this review, please know we speak only from our own personal experience with Tom Galovic, Indy Plus Realty Group, Keller Williams. We have waited a period of time to allow for our disbelief and anger in the process of the sale of our home as well as his and his companies shenanigans involving a home we purchased through MI, of which he had nothing directly to do with in terms of representing us, but benefited through the sales representative with MI Homes, to subside to ensure our review was not only honest, but not anger driven.
Our regretful experience with home builders MI Homes, Mr. Galovic's involvement with Mi Homes where we are concerned, and our closing on the MI Home, our meeting with MI Homes Management Vice President's, including pictures and review are in line to be posted next, where appropriate.
Mr. Galovic was referred us by a sales representative at MI Homes, who is also his personal friend, according to Mr. Galovic. Really bad combination. Tom presents himself as being very knowledgeable. With my husband being a retired police officer, and Indy Plus Realty Group offering a discount for this, we went forward due to the referral from MI Home Sales Rep. Brooke, Noblesville, Indiana. We agreed to let him list our home for sale last April 2016. Later, sadly, this relationship ended without any hope or desire for repair. For us personally, what felt like to us to be very confrontational, ego driven, and bullish ways will never have a place with us in business dealings again. We won't walk on egg shells every time we wish to express our worries or concerns like we feel we did with Mr. Galovic.
When trying to express our concerns to him as our realtor due to our experience each time we did. As our realtor, we often felt like we were a burden to him if we were concerned or worried, and often we were concerned and worried... considering all things. He fought nearly every suggestion we made regardless how respectful we tried to be toward him in the process. He fought us with the listing and representation of our home, from what pictures we wanted on our listing to how and what he said during the open houses he held at our home, which at times made our home sound like it had a defect and not just a different type of layout that would be specific to a couple without younger children, and continuing to keep our home off market when a potential sale of our home fell through and contract with failed buyer had expired. If we pointed something out to him he would tell us we listen to other people too much, or that the seller (us) doesn't usually have a say in what pictures are put on the listing, or we'd get these long condescending lectures and mention of what he felt was our black and white thinking, etc. Our experience has been when he is not happy he speaks before thinking then follows his indirect insults up with compliments. Mind you, we were his clients. We just wish we had been more diligent in our online search for information about Mr. Galovic prior to and not after, as we do most companies. It can tell you a lot. Our experience has been regretful at best. Before the sale of our home and after our consultation with an attorney, the relationship was terminated by Tom, mostly, before we could terminate it knowing we were finished when he, in a confrontational and aggressive manner telephoned us after receiving an email we sent to him outlining what we would and would not accept if we were to go forward with him. He was fiercely angered because we copied his friend, the representative in sales at MI Homes (the purchase of our MI home was contingent on sale of our home and she had every right to be made aware of our issues in writing). A couple days later a buyer's agent brought in a buyer and offer. Mr. Galovic wanted nothing to do with us, though still officially our realtor. Because we could not get another realtor in line prior to this offer that came in, Mr. Galovic's partner, Troy, had to handle the sale and closing. Our experience with Troy was professional. Again, this is our experience and though we could say more, we won't. Surly, given the opportunity, he will have an answer for everything in this review, and in turn will try to turn it around to make it look like we were the problem, but we'd expect this, sadly our experience dictates this. read more
