We are so happy that we chose Top Orlando Homes to sell our Avalon Park home. Phil Kolbrich and Top…read moreOrlando Homes were great. They will absolutely make you feel like their only client despite all of their other listings. Phil Kolbrich will be a tireless advocate for you and your property. I encountered Phil one evening when he was going door to door promoting one of his listings. He wasn't pushy or intrusive, but friendly and conversational. I enjoyed meeting him. Over the next few months, I noticed he was out quite a bit walking the neighborhood. We chatted a few time's randomly, as I walked my dogs and we crossed paths. He was always pleasant, knowledgeable about the market, and his enthusiasm was contagious. When it came time to sell our home, my wife and I invited Phil to come over to hear what Top Orlando Homes had to offer. Their presentation was great! It was professional and to the point. What we liked most about Phil and Gisele was their realistic approach to pricing. They did not tell us what we wanted to hear just to get our business. We had a frank discussion comparing our home to what was currently available and what we should expect. It was a good no nonsense meeting. Phil and Gisele were able to answer all of our questions. Once we signed on with Top Orlando Homes, Phil and his team marketed our home aggressively. Our home was on all of the top sites, and it was one of the top viewed homes for days. We scheduled an open house, but we had offers days before it took place. There were multiple offers at asking and over listing price. Our home was under contract before we could blink. That's all it took. We were thrilled! Phil Kolbrich and Top Orlando Homes were great. We could not have asked for more or had an easier experience selling our home. If you want the best for yourself while selling your home, you should talk to Phil Kolbrich at Top Orlando homes.

He sold our house quickly and for an outstanding price, handling every detail with expertise, patience, and genuine care. His positive energy made the whole process enjoyable instead of stressful. If you're selling or buying in Florida, do yourself a favor and work with him--you won't find a better combination of skill and kindness. Highly recommend!"

Needed to sell our mobile home, which wasn't in the greatest shape. Called Deysma Kettering because…read moreher office had listed another home in the area, so I assumed she'd know more about selling mobile homes than a regular agent. I was right. Deysma came out right away to survey our property and the things we were concerned with, she wasn't - which put our mind at ease. We initially just wanted to make sure we sold it for enough to cover the mortgage we had on it, but she was sure we could get much more. She listed it for what she felt was reasonable and within 3 days, we had an offer for the full amount, which was thousands more than our mortgage pay off. She was with us through the whole process and always there if we had questions. She's no-nonsense and works with the title company and other agents to push things through when/if the process "bottlenecks". I would definitely use Deysma and her firm again in a heartbeat.

I have spent a long time trying to figure out just how I want to articulate my review of Lisa…read more What I will say is this- If you want a Realtor that will get you where you want to be, just go ahead and reach out to her. That's the takeaway. If you want to know why, read on- and consider the following: I took time to write this review. Because they took the time with me. When you need to take a break reading through this, remember this fact: She did not take a break and now I own a home. It is said that buying a home is supposed to be a fun experience. That little lie I'm sure came about when the market for homes was, I suspect reasonable, and the supply was sufficient enough that if you wanted a home and had a down payment, you would reasonably be able to have your pick of the lot and move forward. In 2021...that is not the case. We live in a world where cash investors make cash offers within the first 15 minutes of a house going up on Zillow/trulia/realtor/etc. and these homeowners who are looking to sell have an offer for their asking price- in cash- instantly. While you are waiting trying to get your realtor to book you a showing, the house has already been sold. If you think it isn't that bad or that I am exaggerating, I want to let you know that I lost the first 6 houses I put offers out on within SIX hours of the listing being public. Foolishly, I thought I could offer close to asking- I quickly started offering asking. I then found that wasn't good enough, I had to offer above asking. That still was not good enough and I had to offer the top of my loan letter. Each time. Every time. I was denied. Sometimes after days of being in limbo, wondering. Sometimes they simply rejected the offer outright stating they already had a cash offer. It was, in a word, infuriating. "What does your bad luck have to do with Lisa?" you might be asking. That's a fair question, but it is important to first understand the type of market we are currently in. The type of person you have to have on your side to have a chance of even being considered. This market is cutthroat. It does not care if you want to start a family. It doesn't care if your lease is ending. It doesn't care. Lisa Vanlandingham, cares. The amount of times she was texting me/emailing me/calling me at any and all hours (with my consent prior) to get me to look at a house or submit an offer or go off a tip she got that a house would be going up at such and such O'clock is MINDBOGGLING. All this woman does is read feeds, contact her network, and she does not stop. I swear on all that can be sworn upon, Lisa Vanlandingham does not stop. Look, I won't lie to you. The whole experience wasn't perfect. Many times I felt intense frustration and powerlessness at the whole lunatic situation of being unable to buy a house despite being ready, funded, and serious. I can't tell you how bad the fifth time I fell in love with a house, with no offers on it, and had been up for over 60 days- I can't tell you how hard it hit me when mere HOURS after I put in the first and only offer they had had- at their asking no less- that I was called to be told I was denied because a cash investor found them. I felt like I had been punched. I wanted to give up. What was the point? Lisa was the most compassionate person throughout the whole process- she helped me process the frustration of constantly "losing". She helped keep me focused- gave me space when I needed to cool off after getting particularly screwed on one occasion by a seller- the whole process was tumultuous at its best and outright insane at its worst- but Lisa Vanlandingham was a rock the whole way through. The best part? It wasn't just her. Her entire team- from Laura Klein, my mortgage officer, Dana Schweim, Mary Armnet, Lisa's Husband Pat, her construction team at Duke- I had a veritable army fighting for me to get a home, and that's what it took. I left a review for many of those names- feel free to check them out too. Despite the odds, intense and almost totally insurmountable competition, I ended up purchasing a home that I am not only intensely pleased to call my own- but extremely grateful. Because the whole thing would have been completely impossible without Lisa and her team. Bottom line: If you want someone with finesse, craft, intelligence, real estate savvy Realtor who knows her market, her team, and her capabilities, do yourself a favor and stop wasting your time- Give Lisa Vanlandingham a call. Buy, sell, rent or otherwise- give her a call and she will get you home.

We worked with Lisa for months before we finally found a house. She's very quick, professional,…read moreunderstanding & most importantly she really does treat you like family. I could not have asked for a better realtor. Thank you so much for everything!!

We had an outstanding experience working with Rick Bond as our realtor in Cocoa Beach, Florida…read more Since we live out of state, finding someone we could truly trust to manage things locally was incredibly important--and Rick exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Rick went above and beyond. He didn't just act as our real estate agent; he felt like a trusted family member looking out for our property. He regularly kept an eye on things for us and even helped coordinate cleaning and repairs when needed, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while being so far away. Rick is extremely knowledgeable about the Cocoa Beach real estate market and always took the time to explain the process and our options clearly. His experience and guidance made us feel confident every step of the way. On top of that, his work ethic is truly impressive--he is responsive, proactive, and genuinely dedicated to his clients. We are incredibly grateful to have had Rick representing us. We would never consider using any other realtor in Florida, and we recommend Rick Bond to everyone we know who is looking to buy or sell in Cocoa Beach. If you want a hardworking, knowledgeable, and trustworthy Cocoa Beach realtor who truly cares about his clients, Rick Bond is the one to call.

He was always available for walk throughs, meetings, and the closing. At our drywall walk through, he took photos of everything and asked great questions. He advised us to have an outside inspector which turned out to be a great idea since there were a few items that needed to be taken care of. He attended the closing and reviewed all the documents with us. After closing, Rick sent us calendar reminders to submit the application for the Homestead Exemption. Rick is organized, personable, and passionate about supporting his customers and giving them the best experience possible. It was a pleasure working with Rick and we highly recommend him.

The owner-operator does NOT answer her phone calls, does NOT show the properties she list, nor provide the things promised in the contract at signing.

Ron is a fantastic broker. From the moment we decided to use him, his professionalism, class,…read moreexpertise, hard work, and catering to his clients really helped us during the home-buying process. We were a litttle apprehensive at first about buying a home, but Ron truly made it easy. A few things particularly struck me: 1. No matter the time and day, Ron is always available to look at homes with his clients. He specifically bought out time to take my wife and I to see homes whenever we asked him. There was no delay or wait time; we could tell he was totally dedicated to the client. 2. Ron's professionalism speaks for itself. At crowded homes with other prospective home purchasers, we would see other real estate agents in flip flops, shorts, and tank tops (and who can blame them in this Florida heat?), but Ron was always professionally and respectfully dressed. It's very evident he takes his job seriously and puts on his best for the client. 3. The nature of the home-buying process requires an agent that can submit offers as soon as possible, or else they run the risk of another earlier offer beating their client's. Realizing this, Ron always put in our offers quickly, made it simple for us to understand the contracts, gave us great tips, and gave us the best opportunity to buy a home. If you're on the fence about choosing a real estate professional, you can't go much better than Ron Trotter. He will give you his time, effort, dedication, and experience to make your home-buying wishes come to fruition.

I can't express my gratitude enough to Garrett Bell and the entire Garrett Bell Team!!…read more As a single first time home buyer with a specific budget, Garrett guided me throughout the entire process with the kindness and responsiveness one would only expect to receive from a family member or life-long friend. He was incredibly knowledgeable of the local area and the houses that were available. The home I purchased was very desirable and only lasted on the market for less than 48 hours! If it wasn't for Garrett's top notch and up-to-date research, I would of missed out on the house of my dreams. The seller was less than ideal, which added extra nerves to the entire process. However, with Garrett's patience and hometown charm, I was able to purchase my first home for $10k under asking price!! I was extremely satisfied with the end result and how I was treated during my first home buying experience. I would recommend Garrett Bell and his team to anyone, whether buying their first home or their forever home!
