We originally had our home listed somewhere else and didn't have much activity over 3 months. We…read morewere disheartened. Everything changed after we found The Realty Collective, and started working with Chena. Right off the bat, she was keen to build a strong online presence for our listing. She even arranged to redo the professional photography to make our listing photos stand out more and even added a virtual house tour that really showcased our home. One of the great things about working with Chena is that she doesn't just sit back and wait for buyers to come to her. No, she's very proactive! She actively marketed by creating engaging content for social media platforms to attract potential clients, hosted open houses every week, and the entire realty office collaborated and worked as a team to get as much visibility as possible. When it comes to communication, Chena was a star. She gave us detailed updates on each showing and always kept us in the loop about where our listing was posted and how it was performing in terms of views. Whenever the house required attention, she took the initiative to arrange for services to come and take care of everything that needed to be done. Chena delivered in selling our house within the timeframe that we hoped. She put in the effort and did more than expected to make sure we were happy with the results. We're very happy that we got to work with Chena and we would not hesitate to recommend her in a heartbeat!

After a somewhat challenging Google search for a realtor in our new town of Cookeville, I…read moreremembered that Dave Ramsey has an affiliate network of trusted realtors. I reached out and immediately was contacted by three different Ramsey-approved realtors, including Tyler Wilson from the Skender Newton Group. With our schedules only allowing for a one weekend buying trip, there was no time to waste in making sure we had someone who fully understood our needs and preferences. While all of the realtors were accommodating, friendly, and competent, I ultimately decided to go with Tyler because he was the only one who asked me specific questions and really sought to understand what it was WE were looking for, rather than trying to sell me on his credentials. Tyler was just enough of everything for us -- whether it be the type of contact, the flow of communication/info, or the pleasantries, he expertly mirrored what we prefer -- again, not making it about himself but truly about us. This made the buying experience enjoyable, stress-free, and even fun! Tyler lined up all eight houses we wanted to see for a full day of viewings and even timed them all to the best route! A real local, he knew the areas very well. He would drive us through nearby neighborhoods rather than the main route so we could get a feel for the vibe and he even added a house to our list that we hadn't asked for because he knew we would want to see the area. In the end, this was actually the house we bought! If not for him, we wouldn't have even thought to look at it. We couldn't have been happier with our buying experience with Tyler -- he was the utmost in professional and courteous while consistently putting our needs first. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Cookeville area!

If I could leave a negative star rating for this agent I would…read more She flat out lied about the property she had listed. Her exact words were "there is an animal smell because the owner lets the animals in and out of the house." Actually, the house reeked so bad from animal urine it stung the eyes and nose. She added to the sales contract, "inspection within 10 days", fairly standard in a contract, but failed to let us know that the seller was going to be out of town for nearly a week and wouldn't allow inspections or even showings while they were out of town. Then after our inspection (on day 5 of the days we could actually access the property, and before we even had the formal paid inspection), when we decided that the overwhelming smell was not something we could live with (and getting feedback from house inspectors that we'd probably have to replace the wooden floor and the sub floor), she tells the sellers and works with them to keep 50% of the earnest deposit. Seriously, if you are buying a house that she has listed, be very careful. And if you are wanting to list a house try and find someone who has more ethics and morals. People like her are what give real estate agents a bad name.

The first property was not an ideal fit for me, but Sarah suggested some others in the area. Over the next few days she quickly zeroed in on exactly what I was looking for and sent me a few listings. We viewed a couple nice properties, and the property I wound up buying was one of her suggestions that checked nearly all my wish-list boxes. Being new to the area Sarah's local knowledge and information was invaluable. Even after the sale and closing Sarah has stayed in touch and made sure everything was working out for me. As I am considering other property in the area, Sarah will definitely be my first call.

After seven long years of searching for our forever home, leasing in Florida three years and…read moreTennessee almost four years, our unplanned move was necessitated as the owners of the house we were leasing needed their house back...in 30 days. Literally, we had less than a month to relocate. A month that included a long holiday when many businesses were closed. Our adventure began on Friday of Independence Week... how appropriate! The first two houses we were interested in, quickly became unavailable. By chance, I sent Gwin Home & Garden Realty an inquiry about a house on the market. I indicated that this house was the style we were looking for and that by the information on the website, it appears to check all the boxes. Almost immediately, I received a response from Realtor Genelle, who said "I believe I have your house" and we immediately made an appointment to tour this home, along with a few others. This house was in a location we were unfamiliar with but Genelle took the time, on that Sunday, to show us around with great patience and intuition. She was right, the first house she showed us was the house we loved and we placed an offer. Genelle patiently and with great expertise, worked with us and her team to manage all the details in a week full of holiday obstacles. Over the next few weeks, Genelle was right there coordinating with the lender and his team, the seller and her team, as well as, the Title company to make this purchase process flawless. While Genelle and her team worked their magic, our processes a hour and half away included movers, packers, cleaners and good-byes. Genelle came though on time and under budget and we are incredibly grateful. We love our forever home. Thank you, Genelle Thomas and the wonderful team at Gwin Realty in Crossville, Tennessee.
