He possesses strong communication skills, is…read morehighly knowledgeable about the Louisville market, and consistently made himself available to assist us. When we decided to visit Louisville for a 3 day weekend, he dedicated an entire Friday to showing us homes. At the end of that day, we realized that the house we eventually purchased had just returned to the market. Matthew was then able to spend the following morning (Saturday) with us to view it. The timing was perfect. Throughout the transaction, Matthew and his team took great care of us, communicated well, and kept a degree of levity that made the journey not feel like as much drudgery as a home purchasing/selling transaction can often feel. We would strongly recommend Matthew and his team to any buyers looking for an agent!

The Oatley Team brought deep experience; considered and up-to-date market expertise; clear, timely…read morecommunication; and attention to detail to bear in selling my parents' Louisville home. I also appreciated the fact that Laura Oatley treated the experience as more than a transaction: She understood and honored the fact that my elderly parents were leaving the city they loved. While agreeing to let them make that transition before listing the house, Laura nonetheless worked tirelessly with me directly throughout their move so that the house was ready to be shown as soon as it went on the market. The result was that my parents stayed relaxed and focused, unburdened by the sale process AND we got multiple first day viewings with completion of sale at asking price before midnight on DAY ONE! I cannot thank Laura, Aimee, and the entire Oatley Team enough for their professionalism and compassion.

We wanted to buy a house in Louisville. We knew it is wise to be represented by a "buyer's…read moreagent", but we didn't know one we wanted to use. We found Martin Shuck more or less randomly, and we lucked out. Over about four months we looked at probably twenty houses, made offers on three, (two fell through due to results of home inspections), finally bought one. Mr. Shuck hung in with us all the way. We found him to be thoroughly ethical, always responsive, competent, friendly and patient. Without a trace of pressure or BS. When you see a listing on realtor.com or somewhere, I strongly recommend that you hold off on calling the agent who is selling it and get one to represent YOUR interests, not the sellers Martin Shuck at MLSCO would be a very good choice.

Honestly I have rarely seen a realtor to be so honest, caring and reliable! We had talked to other…read morerealtors before her who obviously were unreliable, making us uncomfortable to work with them. Jessica was very honest, and didn't ask us for any outrageous renovations. She cares about her clients as they are her family! We had to leave the States, and while we were gone she took care of our property as if it was her own. She took care of the reminder of corrections, cleaning, staging, and photos absolutely perfectly without us being there.She really took great care of us and we are forever grateful! In the end, she had our house sold, over the asking price before it hit the market! I definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to buy and sell their house.

It was the perfect storm of us being first time homebuyers, living out of state, and being on a tight timeline that had us absolutely terrified for what the home buying process would look like, but to say that Noah made the entire process easy would be an understatement. She was thorough throughout every aspect of the process and always advocated for us when we could not be physically present. Her extensive network of connections - from inspectors to electricians to roofers to structural engineers - ensured we were covered on all bases and is a testimony to how respected she is within the community. Her real estate expertise and knowledge/love for her city mixed with her determination to understand our needs and wants ended up with us finding the perfect home. We hope to never sell our beautiful little home, but when we do, Noah will definitely be our girl. We can't thank her enough!!

Semonin Realtors is one of the oldest and most highly regarded firms in Louisville, KY. My first contact was on the phone. He was highly emotional when. I described the atmosphere in my neighborhood: People were distraught because Ghayhoumi planned to put a driveway into the property behind my house. Ray was selling the land for his brother Who was out of the state. Ghayoumi agreed to sell me the property. I gave him $1,000. When the closing date was set, Ghayoumi said I was to pay his closing costs. This was a deal breaker. I signed a termination contract. Ghayoumi refused to give me back my $1,000. At the end I was glad not to have any further Business with such a nickle and dimer.

I had the privilege of being recommended to work with Dustin Robinson as my relator…read more I have never met him, although we had some similar friends and connections, and truly at the time I felt uneasy about venturing into being a first time home owner. But my wife was getting more and more excited about being a future home owner, and the past two years of renting started to bear the limitations and frustrations of not owning your own place. My wife set up a time to meet up with a realtor, and I reluctantly went not expecting to enjoy the meeting whatsoever. The semonin's location was impressive, and the staff was instantly friendly and accommodating. I worked strange hours at the time, but Dustin set up a time that worked for us. Most of his co-workers had already gone home, and we met in his office. It didn't take long for my fears to melt away. The meeting with Dustin was professional, and yet very friendly and caring. He could read we were new to it all and provided the information and assistance we needed to feel comfortable. We decided to take the plunge and start looking at houses. This is where the 5 stars comes into place, if I could give 10 stars I would. Dustin never gave the impression that we were a paycheck to him, in fact he was a friend, he was a great help to us, and he stuck it through till the end. He was always available when we needed to communicate and he fought for us to get the best deals, even if it meant deals falling through. Our first house he told us about an inspector who was fairly priced and was very much attention to detail. This inspector saved us from buying a house that looked fine, but had extensive termite damage. Dustin continued to encourage us, after our "dream house" had a terrible report from the inspection. A month later we found a better house. One that needed a roof repair. The sellers were not great at communicating and yet Dustin fought to bridge the gap, on the end we were able to get them to replace the roof with no expense to us and we now live in a home we absolutely adore. If it wasn't for Dustin we would of possibly bought the first house and would be living in a money pit. Semonin's services were so helpful. We couldn't of done it without them.

She is quick to respond, answers all our questions (even if they might seem silly), made sure we had the information we needed to move forward and just had our backs through the entire process. We are also using her as our agent for the new home build we are going through now and we are getting the same quality assistance we got, with the sale of our house, with the new build. She is helping us ensure the builder is doing what they are supposed too and keeping our best interests at heart. If you are looking for an agent to represent you, she's more than capable and will get you the best deal possible while making sure you are comfortable with whatever decisions are made.
