This was my first experience selling a home and it proved to be very disappointing. Suzanne and…read moreher associate, Gretchen, walked through and the red flags were immediate. As we were walking through Suzanne asked, "is it yours to sell?" I thought how odd a question. I couldnt help but wonder does she ask all her clients that question? She also stated she would take a 5.5 % sellers commission instead of the customary 6%. I didn't think much of it until a few weeks after signing the listing agreement that she indeed was charging 6% and not the 5.5% she had promised. During the initial meeting she said she wouldn't be putting her agency sign outside because more and more homeowners were making that choice for privacy. I thought it sounded a little odd but this being my first time selling a home I didn't question it. None the less the second it sold there was a sign planted in the front yard. I had just purchased a new Samsung washer and dryer a few months prior and I had them listed as an exclusion in the sale, however I was forced to leave them when I moved. Unfortunately the refrigerator had a maintenance issue while the condo was listed and I could have spent $200 and had it repaired and all would have been good but again was forced to give the buyer a $2500 credit. Gretchen is nothing more than a bully and a thug and will say or do anything without any consideration for honesty to get what she wants. She accepted a low ball offer without consulting me and set up 2 closings, a closing for me alone and another for the buyers so we wouldn't meet, how insulting. While taking care of some final touchups before an open house one of Suzannes employees was lending a hand and started talking about Trump's stolen election and she couldn't understand why we couldn't agree with her. My friend found it so disturbing and unprofessional he left. If you see Powers Realty Group coming, turn around and run.

We had seen mailings for Powers Realty Group over several years, but did not contact them for…read moreselling our unit at first. We used larger real estate companies. We wish we had chosen Powers first. They handled our sale with professionalism, expertise, and extensive experience in unique selling circumstances. This allowed them to complete the sale when larger real estate firms couldn't. This speaks to their network of support partners and excellent professional relationship with them. From our first meeting with Suzanne and Gretchen, we were so impressed with their preparation and attention to detail. Both Suzanne and Gretchen arrived at our home with face masks and were very serious about the new showing and realtor protocols with COVID19. They maintained this same level of diligence and customer focus to all aspects of our sale. Gretchen and Suzanne exhibited expert knowledge and problem solving skills when faced with all phases of the sale and any challenges as they arose. They kept us informed and presented solutions while working collaboratively with us throughout our sale's progression. They were always available and responded promptly to us. Abbey was integral in the smooth execution of all the tasks during the sale. She was also a delight to deal with. Powers Realty Group presents itself as a boutique broker. They are the epitome of this label. They are right sized, specialized and the perfect balance of exceptional customer service and expert knowledge base. They shine throughout the range of real estate possibilities, from niche property sales to traditional properties. Our only regret is that we did not call Powers Realty Group sooner for our sale. Thank you Suzanne, Gretchen and the team for a job well done. We are very grateful.

At first we…read morehad a different realtor who just wasn't really fitting with us and after a few showing knew I had to look for someone else. Thanks when a friend recommended Lifetime realty group and we found Jen!! What a savior in a hectic time. She knew we didn't have a ton of time to look but could make more time in order to find the right house. She listen to what we wanted and what we could afford. Her assistant showed us houses and showed up with a flash light and taught us about the houses we saw. Also got me into showings that were hard to get into. After we got our home, there was and still are check ups. We had a big storm that left a lot of people work out power and Jen checked to see if we were okay! We are super happy and recommend Jen at lifetime realty group!

We had no idea how to go about or even how to start the process...We called Lifetime Realty, we seen that there was a house down the block that was for sale and were using Lifetime Realty. My husband called the phone # on the sign and spoke to one of the team members. She got us in touch with Mark. He called us right away and set up an appointment to meet with us. Very nice, very informative with any questions we had, and was very understanding with the situation with all 4 of us owning the house. He kept all of us informed of what was to happen, and what our next steps were. Mark would text us every time there was an update, a showing, the walk through, and offers on the property, also to the end at the closing. The Lifetime Realty Group went as far as separating the amounts equally between the 4 of us. The team there, are awesome and it was a privilege to get to know and to work with them all. I would definitely recommend Mark, and the Lifetime Realty Team to anyone who is wanting to sell or buy a house.

They got us through a very difficult time with compassion and a friendship that has endured. We highly recommend them!

I didnt have to do any pricey work nor did I have to discount the sale. He just works with you, in your budget. He works hard on the sale. He knows how to properly handle a situation where you get two buyers on the line and get you the best deal even if not the easist deal for him to run through. Alan Metz is all about getting you money. I had worked with one of those snake oil men in the past, got ripped off in my sale. Alan wont let any oppurtunity slip through your fingers. He is also great if you need a house on a budget, he can get you into that dream. After all, he is a family man himself with a brood of wonderful children, he knows what a young family needs and how hard it is to get started in a house. He will work hard for you to get what you need, within your budget. Simply amazing. You cant go wrong with Alan Metz and HomeWire Realty.

Over a pizza, he tirelessly answered all of our questions (and then some!). He referred us to a fantastic mortgage lender and together they helped us though every step. It was sooo stress-free! When it came time to start looking, he graciously took us to every place we wanted to see including a couple that we knew would not be right for us (we wanted to get an idea of how the photos and real things would compare). Sometimes, like the day we found OUR home, he actually met with us twice in a day. It was a FSBO, but he left the gym and zipped over to see if there was a phone number on the sign, since there was only an email address on the Zillow listing. 15 minutes later, we were looking and shortly thereafter, ready to make an offer. Unbeknownst to us, the seller had been inundated with interested buyers and there was some drama involved that nearly cost us the house. Chad saved it for us by going over and beyond to help the seller. She told him that a great part of why she accepted our offer is because of his kindness and willingness to help. We moved into our home a mere 26 days after making the offer. We HIGHLY recommend Chad & Encompass Realty. Call! You will be so glad you did!

It was dated and needed love but was on a beautiful lot in New Berlin. Colleen loved the property as much as we did, she saw the potential. Colleen was prepared with several comps pricing it right.

The closing was very organized, taking less than 30 minutes. Colleen and everyone else at Redefined Realty Advisors were a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them.

We recently sold our $400k+ Waukesha county home using Redefined Realty. It is a long sad story of…read morehow we found them, but here are the basics: We first listed with Remax, who made a complete and absolute MESS of our listing. We sat on the market for 6 months with Remax with little activity. Remax had our information wrong, used horrible cheap looking pictures, didn't vette out tire kickers, etc... The Realtor was lazy, and was just sitting back waiting to collect his pay-day. Don't listen to the 6% realtors they are full of CRAP. They don't do anything better in this era of internet savvy shoppers. All you are doing is WASTING YOUR MONEY and making some lazy person rich. We had a gorgeous fully updated home that SAT due to a lazy, greedy realtor who simply wanted to maximize his profit for doing NOTHING. After our listing expired with Remax we looked to friends to suggest a Realtor - John Gscheidmeier was the man. John came in as a Real Estate PROFESSIONAL. He takes his work seriously, and he worked fast to get both an accurate listing and awesome professional photos out. John had our home sold in one week for damn near asking price. We made tens of thousands over what we would have with Remax and FELT GOOD about what we paid for in commission. John did significantly more than our 6% guy who claimed to be the best of the best. Redefined is the wave of the future, you get more with these guys as a seller than you will with anyone - guaranteed. Put some money back in your pocket and ignore the B.S. the 6% realtors are telling you - you will be happy you did.
