Where do I begin with this one?…read more Well, I guess first and foremost, I say thank you. Thank you to OMC Broker, Dale Ostrander and his Loan Processor, Linda Darneille. You helped make our American Dream a reality. That's right folks, my husband and I just bought our first home! There was nothing easy, or painless, or stress free about the last 110 days or so, but Dale and Linda at OMC Real Estate made it bearable. I honestly felt they worked FOR us, from day one. I don't think there was a single business day in the first month of searching for our home, that I didn't receive some sort of communication from Dale, whether through email or a phone call, that he had another one for us to look at. When the ONE finally came, it seemed too good to be true. A mile from my childhood home (being close to my parents was very important to me), in between the two cities my husband and I work in, and one of the cutest, no fixer-upper houses I've ever seen! Turned out, it almost WAS too good to be true. From the beginning, Dale wanted to keep us away from short-sales because of the slow process of closing them--short-sales are, unfortunately, what most of the real estate market consists of in this economy--so when the ONE fell into his lap before it even went on the market, and was a Bank Ready short-sale, we went with it. It was SO not bank ready. What should have been maybe a 30 day escrow, slooooowly turned into a regular short sale. When days turned to months, and I was starting to lose all hope of not only owning this home, but also snagging that wonderful $8,000 tax credit (Thank you Obama!), Dale and Linda didn't give up. Not one single bit. In the process of what is sure to be a person's most expensive and emotional purchase of their life, having a team like OMC is imperative. We'll never forget how they turned what could have been a bad experience, into the best outcome we could have hoped for. This might be the most near-and-dear to me Yelp I've ever written. I HIGHLY, recommend OMC Real Estate to anyone about to start the process of owning a home. We get the keys in four days...somehow, I think it will be an even longer wait than the past 110.

Regina and Aaron were recommended to us by our agent and they provided excellent services from the…read morebeginning of the process and continued to, well after closing. We highly recommend Simplified Realty without any reservations. Our experience began with Regina sitting down with us and talking through the home buying process as well as the taking us through the property several times. Based on our input (budget, ideal home, ideal location), Aaron provided ideas on how to structure our funding and connected us to the best lenders covering the area. Regina spent time talking about the pros/cons of the different things we saw in the community. Most important to us, Regina was always honest with us about what she thought about the property, was always available and helpful, and we always felt that she truly had our best interests at heart. She connected us to all the key service providers in the community, helped us to negotiate for and purchase the furniture that was in the house and even now, more than a year after closing, she still cheerfully recommends contractors and other service providers when we contact her looking for suggestions as we complete work on our home. In the future, if we ever decide to move, we will definitely use Simplified Realty again to both sell our home and find a new one.

Owner called my sister an extortionist because house did not appraise for the amount of the offer…read more Wanted us to cut our selling price rather than have the buyer honor their non-contigent offer. Note: You are representing US not, the buyer. How dare you call YOUR CLIENT an extortionist!! Forward 2 years, contract to sell house expired. I called and asked them to pick up sign. He later calls back and tells me he can sell my house for 'x' amount of $'s ($93,000) BELOW market/appraised value. Didn't call for you to SELL my house, called for you to REMOVE your sign (Assured me that sign would be removed in 24hours). His response, "I can tell that you are VERY difficult to work with". Two months later, sign is still there. BTW, house sold for $110,000 more!! Get to know your market and SERVE your CLIENT, not yourself!!

My husband and I have used a lot of realtors over the years, but Frank Beltrami has been the best…read moreby far! He exceeded all of our expectations. We had to move out of state before our home sold. Frank went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that our home sold for top dollar. He staged it, cleaned up the yard, held upscale open houses, and proactively followed up on every lead until it sold (at no extra cost to us). When it came time to negotiate terms, he was an expert advocate for us. He kept in constant communication with us throughout the entire process (which only lasted 4 months). My only complaint is that he won't be able to sell our next home for us, since we're out of state now.

Very unprofessional. I contacted Pete to see a house. We saw it. He then texted me in the morning…read moreto let me know that the open house had been cancelled and that they were taking offers that evening. I started looking for lenders ASAP (super high stress) to get approvals, but I tried reaching out to him before I initiated the process and no response.

I worked with Pete on a transaction where he was helping the seller and the buyer. The seller was…read moreat risk of losing their house to foreclosure and Pete was able to help stall the bank so they could sell the house and get their equity (which was well over $150K). He helped find the buyer and we got their loan approved and ready to close 2 full weeks before their foreclosure deadline. Pete helped the seller arrange moving trucks and materials and made sure that the buyer was taken care of with the timing of recording and helping find a contractor for repairs. I thought that he was a very sincere and helpful real estate agent who was working on behalf of both parties of the party in a really honest and thoughtful way.
