If you want to hire the best realtor in Gainesville, you've got to call Lisa Baltozer from Coldwell…read moreBanker, MM Parrish Realtors. I live in South Florida, but I own a townhome in Gainesville that I wanted to sell quickly. I called Lisa and I was immediately impressed with her professionalism and with her vast knowledge of the real estate market and how to best market a home for a quick sale. Lisa genuinely cares about each and every one of her clients, and she always made me feel like I was number one on her list. She also returned every one of my phone calls and texts I sent her within minutes, and she answered every question I had. This was very important to me. Lisa's real estate expertise is amazing. She did a thorough market analysis, previewed my home, and sent me a list of things she recommended that I do to get a quick sale (new paint, new carpet, repairs, professionally clean the unit and the tile, remove certain furniture, etc.) I followed her advice and she was right. Lisa listed my home on June 27, 2018, and by noon June 28, 2018, we had three cash offers. We actually ended up selling my townhome for $2,000 over the asking price! Since I live out of town, I needed Lisa to be my eyes and ears for all the contractors I hired to work on my townhome. Lisa stopped by my home numerous times to help with whatever needed to be done (letting in the painter, checking out the new carpet for me, etc.) She texted me dozens of pictures so I could follow the progress of the contractors. She even stopped by my townhome after 9:00 p.m. when I asked her to check something in the townhome for me. Lisa did countless extra things for me, including installing new weatherseal by my front door when the old seal needed to be replaced, and she had great ideas to stage my home. She made my townhome look amazing! I have used several real estate agents throughout Florida during the last thirty years, and Lisa is by far the best agent I have ever had. She made everything so easy for me. She was always there to answer my questions, to help me with whatever needed to be done, and to walk me though every step of the selling process before, during, and after the sale. I am so happy that I found Lisa. I recommend her 100% to anyone who wants to hire the very best real estate agent in Gainesville! Thank you, Lisa, for all the extra things you did for me and for the amazing job you did selling my townhome in one day - and for $2,000 over the listing price! This wouldn't have happened without you. You are beyond awesome!

Leslie is the one who found the house too, we didn't even know it would be the one we wanted the most until she showed it to us.

As young, first-time homebuyers, we knew nothing about the process of buying a home, but from the moment I sent my first email to Marc and Leslie, I felt like their most important and only customer. They are a fantastic team that really works to build great relationships with their clients. They were so responsive to every email and phone call, and they were available at a moment's notice to show houses or draft an offer. They walked us through every step of the contract process, explaining everything in detail, so that we didn't feel lost or in over our heads, and they patiently answered our hundreds of questions. They even helped us move our closing date up a few weeks and worked closely with our lender to make sure everything got done on time. Working with Marc and Leslie made househunting fun and easy, rather than a chore. They never pressured us into any decisions. They are just honest, pleasant people who really know what they are doing. I cannot fully express how happy we are that we chose the Suskins, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I would use them again for a sale or purchase in a heartbeat!

We lost our dream home AND our $1,000 "good faith" money due to misleading assurances about the ease of financing, poor communication & confusing paperwork. Despite all the promises, our realtor did NOT act in our best interest, nor was she an advocate for us. She was just worried about an easy deal & her commission... period. Best part of the whole experience? The Owner/CEO/Broker was happy to commiserate with us on the phone, offered some half-hearted apologies... but still chose NOT to make our situation right.

After searching for a home, we found one that peaked our interest, also in the Coldwell Banker Network (this office!), but our agent would give no information about. Over a few days, we asked multiple times and she blew it off. We finally asked if we could talk directly with the listing agent and she eventually gave in. We spoke with the listing agent of that home directly and got WAY more information in 3 minutes than we got with our own agent in 3 days. We didn't say anything about it, but the next day, she called me in, sat me down, and cleverly patronized me for ~20 minutes for not "trusting her" about that house. We just wanted to know about it and felt she was withholding information. I didn't yell, didn't argue with her, really didn't speak much during that ambush... She told us she would no longer going to work with us and that we needed to find another agent. I just took it and walked out in shock. I retraced my steps trying to see what *we* did wrong. Is this how Coldwell Banker operates? Withhold information and than fire us if we go around her and find out ourselves? We found another agent elsewhere and found a home a month later, and closed on it many months after that.

When she handed me over to the actual person who would be managing the property, things started to fall apart beginning with a tremendous amount of pushback on absolutely everything. And they were not prompt in responding and lacked follow through. It was an incredibly stressful time. Eventually, once the funds were received for placement, tenant and myself were unceremoniously dropped from their "firm". I thought it was just me, but it appears that this is a pattern of bad behavior that still remains unchecked to this day.

I finally got through to a representative, and the information she gave me on a unit I was interested in renting was completely different than what was listed on the website. Price, location, date available, and application pending status were all incorrect. She said it already had an approved application on it, even though I was accepted for a tour of that unit... Then, I found another listing on their website I was interested in renting. Against my better judgement, I attempted to call their office again, and the person I spoke with said she couldn't find that listing in their records. She said she would place me on hold and find out, but instead she transferred me back in the queue where I waited another 20 minutes just to receive a voice mailbox. To me, seeing "Allison Ables" on the listing is synonymous with "don't even bother." You'll waste your time battling call queues and incompetent representatives.

Amazingly knowledgeable about neighborhoods,…read moreconstruction, styles, negotiating on my behalf, comps, etc. Kristen is pleasant and easy to get along with, as are almost all real estate agents, but she is also frank about pointing out defects in homes you are viewing (if you want that). Buyers differ in how they prefer to interact with a showing agent - some prefer to be allowed to take in a home without any distractions, and Kristen is happy to operate in that mode if that is what you prefer. On the other hand, I like for the agent to be with me while touring a home to answer questions and point out defects and advantages as we go along. Kristen was so very excellent in that mode. When it comes time to make an offer on a house (or decide on a listing price), a market analysis from an agent is crucial. I found Kristen's market analysis well done and her negotiation skills superb in representing my interests. The home inspection uncovered an issue that became a sticking point because ultimately it proved not feasible to remedy and I didn't want to accept it. After many hours of research and fact finding by Kristen, eventually I realized it was not the big deal I had thought. Kristen never rushed me to this conclusion, to her immense credit. This was the seventh home purchase for me and by far the most expert and helpful agent I have worked with. Highly, highly recommended.
