Juan is an efficient, reliable, straight-shooter who won't waste your time or money. His extensive knowledge of the housing market, remodeling costs, and the city of Bloomington were extremely helpful in our move here from the West Coast. He was patient, kind, and funny and went above and beyond to listen, teach, explain, and fight for us. Also, Juan and his hats? He's got the drip! We are thrilled with how easy the entire process was; we are ecstatic about the home and neighborhood we now live in; and we highly recommend Juan Carlos!

Even after closing, Juan was offering to help out with things that may come up down the road. Everything was digital, which I really appreciated. When things started to get a little worrisome going into closing, Juan and his team were on it. They helped us do what needed to be done to get to and through the closing. So excited about the new home. Many many thanks to Juan and his crew for the assist.

Oh how we love, Zak. Let us count the ways:…read more 1. He listened to us, respected our edge and worked tirelessly to show us homes - once in a sprint house hunting weekend, then from long distance, and once we moved to Bloomington and continued our search. 2. He never pushed his opinions on us. Always gave us space to tour and discuss the homes on our own; only providing his insight when we asked or when he saw any glaring red flags. 3. He's super knowledgable about each neighborhood in Bloomington, which really helped make our search even more efficient. He's down to earth. We never felt like we were being sold to. It was like a friend was showing us each listing. 4. He smart. Before we made an offer on our home, he pulled stats on comparable properties in the area and crunched the numbers. He had our best interest at heart and wanted to make sure we went in with a wise offer. 5. He was super responsive. We are first time home buyers and he took the time to answer all of our questions quickly and efficiently. He must hear the same ones over and over again, but he never hesitated to give us detailed explanations. TLDR: If you're about to list your home, or embark on a house hunt in Bloomington. Zak is your guy. Don't waste your time with anyone else.

Zak is amazing, very helpful and truly understands people. Highly recommend him!read more

If I could give ZERO stars I would! This is regarding a…read morewoman, Melba Edwards, who rents student housing around the Indiana University campus. Our experience was at 412 E Alice. Great location....horrific experience. Home is in disrepair. Requests for repairs or basic maintenance are ignored. Toilets do not work, plumbing in kitchen leaks, floors are so sloping that the only thing keeping the refrigerator from rolling into the next room was a wall. Dining room has had a (broken) door put on it to be considered another bedroom....no closet. Mice and roach infestation. At the end of the lease, charges were levied for items that were noted as needing attention at move in! We added locks for security, insulation in the basement and did more than $350 in necessary maintenance....never reimbursed or acknowledged by owner. STAY AWAT FROM 412 E ALICE and I urge extreme caution when dealing with Melba Edwards, MJE Properties, Edwards Properties. I have no clue what the process is around Indiana University to assure that landlords are ethical people, leading safe, clean properties, but I do not believe her properties meet minimum health code requirements for occupancy.

Where do I start? When we first met with Andrea we we're coming from a bad experience with another…read morerealtor, so we were skeptical. It didn't take long for her to set our mind at ease. We were first time home buyers, knowing very little about the whole process, we only knew what we wanted. Andrea got right on finding us houses to look at that actually met our wants and needs.. she didn't just spam us every listing. But what really made the difference was she took the time, and it took A LOT, to answer every question, sometimes she answered the question several times for us but she never got frustrated or hurried us in anyway. She always gave us her honest opinion, which we valued. When it came time to negotiate, she was able to get us everything we needed to make the deal happen. Going into the process oh, we had no idea how emotional and drawn out it would be, but she truly held our hand through the whole thing and calmed our nerves. When we would hit bumbs my husband would become discouraged and want to give up, afraid there was no way to make our dreams a reality and without Andrea they wouldn't have been, she was there with information and assistance... if she didn't have the answer she would find someone that did! She was truly amazing!

Andrea is the realtor consummate in that she showed us homes that exactly fit our criteria and those that stretched our geographic and budget boundaries. We thought that we had set our initial budget at a point where we could find the right home, but the present housing market in Bloomington and surrounding areas didn't yield any acceptable homes in that area. When we upped our budget by a mere 15%, many nicer homes came within the acceptable criteria. Andrea was a patient individual while working with us and our likes/dislikes in homes. During our search, we were staying in a northern Indianapolis community and had to travel whenever she found homes to show us. She was considerate to schedule home viewings so as to accommodate our commute. She is full of energy and worked hard to find us the right place. While viewing homes, she also introduced us to the Bloomington community and guided us through a new town for us. We looked at 30 homes before we found the one which we eventually purchased. Inasmuch as we used Andrea as a buyer's agent, she always focused on what we wanted as well as cautioned us on the limits of the homes she showed us. She is a delight to work with and we would recommend her to anyone seeking a home in Monroe and surrounding counties. Should the occasion arise we would not hesitate to use Andrea again.

In the end it lacked one critical component and we walked away from that but not before Linda showed us another nearby property. In that short meeting we found a very knowledgeable, candid and forthright person we clicked with. We found her to be very personable and down to earth and came to trust her implicitly. Over the course of a year Linda showed us a number of homes and came to understand what we were looking for and the requirements we had. When we found THE ONE she was there to support us we worked through a mortgage application nightmare and ultimately changing to a different strategy to close the deal on what we feel is an awesome investment in a unique home that fits all our requirements. She has a wealth of knowledge about the area and the market as well knowing who to call for all the things that come up during the course of making an offer and getting to the closing. We will never work with anyone else. We simply cannot say enough good about her and how much help she has been.
