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.

Full of concern and frustration after my first go-round with the other realtor; I was apprehensive; I had lots of questions and concerns for Travis. Luckily for me, Travis was attentive to my concerns and answered all my questions. If he didn't know the answers; he sought them out for me. Travis was always professional, assertive, supportive and displayed excellent communication skills. He provided the guidance I needed for negotiating the sale of my home at a price that made sense in the current market and my own needs. The Impact Home Group was awesome! The office team was also extremely helpful and efficient with providing assistance and support with all the paperwork, the closing information, my 'to do list' to make sure we could close in a timely manner. After Travis took over my listing, my beautiful home sold in less than a week.

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!

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.

When we decided we would start looking for a house, we initially worked with another realtor couple…read morein the Louisville area, but they didn't seem to really understand what we were looking for. We contacted Team Panella, and in our first meeting, I realized Scott had a better grasp of our needs in 30 minutes than the previous realtors did after a couple weeks of showing us several houses and getting our feedback on each. We thought we were "just looking", and didn't plan to buy for another 6 months or so, when our lease was up. But Scott showed us so many houses that were a good fit and in our price range, that we ended up making an offer on a house. When that offer wasn't accepted, because the sellers accepted another, higher offer, Scott reassured us that it wasn't the only house on the market that we would like, and we'd probably find something better. He was absolutely right. A few days later, he said he found a house that had just hit the market, and he thought it was perfect. We saw it and agreed, and our offer was accepted. We've been there for just over three years now, and we still love the house. We were first-time home buyers, and Scott was great about helping us navigate the process, finding all the various inspectors, mortgage brokers, etc, that are part of it (but without pressuring us to use anyone in particular). He made sure we always understood what was being done, and what would be coming up next. When it came time to move into the new house, they even let us use their box truck. When the truck had mechanical problems the day of the move, the Panellas were on a family vacation, but when Scott got my message, he called me from the airport, arranged for a tow-truck, and a replacement U-haul. He definitely won my loyalty that day! When the kids move out and our needs change, I will definitely be contacting Team Panella again.

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.
