We were fairly new to Gainesville, and living in an apartment while waiting to sell our home in…read moreWisconsin. We weren't really in a hurry, but stopped by a few Parade homes in the fall. At one, we met Tom. He was super knowledgeable about the house and entire area, but the house wasn't right for us. He recommended other neighborhoods we might be interested in and promised not to hound us if we gave him our info. And he truly didn't, which we really appreciated. We got back in touch with him and told him about some homes we were interested in seeing. He quickly set up appointments at all of them, and spent pretty much the whole day with us on Thanksgiving weekend, though I know he had company visiting. We told him we'd go to one of the houses that afternoon, as they had an open house that day. I thought it was a waste of time when I saw he had us going privately to that house. We saw about half a dozen houses that day, of all types in all sorts of neighborhoods. Tom did a wonderful job ferreting out what was important to us-he's a great listener! At the end of the day, he took us back to that Open House we'd mentioned-it was just ending, and he encouraged us to take another look. Both my husband and I knew definitively during our 2nd look that it was the perfect house for us. It turned out to be absolutely fortuitous that we had seen it earlier. After brief consultation, Tom submitted our offer that day, and helped us negotiate over the next day. We ended up with just what we wanted, and feel his knowledge was key in achieving that. It certainly didn't stop then. Tom spoke to us about different lenders and vendors for certain services. We still shopped around, but always ended up with the companies Tom had recommended and it served us well. He was quite helpful all the way up to and including the closing (offered a few inspection companies and set up the inspection with the one we chose, came to our walk thru and noticed little things for the seller to fix that we would never have seen), and has even followed up with us in the ensuing weeks, ensuring we were satisfied with how everything was going. Outstanding sphere of knowledge (neighborhoods, amenities, builders, valuations, etc...) Outstanding client service Would not hesitate for a second to recommend Tom as your realtor. My husband says he concurs!

From start to finish, It was a pleasure to work with Tom and Trish. They are both a pleasure to…read morework with and always available for any questions and are very quick with responses. They helped us selll our home quicker than the anticipated time. I think this was due to how professional they were from the excellent description of the home and the photos that were taken. This made the home shine and stand out on the various sites. We would definitely use them again.

This letter serves as my highest recommendation for Tom Kerr of Florida Homes Realty and Mortgage…read more My husband and I sought out Tom because of his creative marketing and attention to detail. We were very impressed with the listing package he put together to sell our home and have no doubt that is was the reason our home sold quickly and for a price that we were very pleased with. Tom was always available to answer our questions or concerns and truly went above and beyond his required duties, even filling in for the buyers agent during this pandemic. I have dealt with many realtors and Tom stands at the very top of the list. If your find yourself needing a realtor to sell your home or buy your dream home....Tom Kerr is your man. Thanks for everything Tom - we really appreciate you. Shaun & Roxanne Lopez February 24, 2021 Melrose Florida

They always made us feel important, a lot of times realtors feel like they are too busy to really give you the time you need to go and look for homes but they worked so hard for us! I truly cannot express how accommodating and knowledgeable they are. We have referred them to everyone we know and we will continue to send them business because they are that good. If you need a realtor that will work hard for you and keep your best interests in mind and be HONEST with you give them a call!

As a landlord working with the Owner Tanya and my property manager, Tianna, has been nothing but…read morepleasant and smooth. I unexpectedly had to move and with less than 1 month notice I reached out to Tanya and she came by to inspect my home and didn't exactly walk into a turn key ready home. She suggested a few repairs, got me a range for how much the property can reasonably rent for and as soon as all the agreements were signed, with the help of Tianna, they had vendors getting her estimates and getting started on repairs. Once the repairs were done and my home was put on the market it rented SOOOO quickly! I expected weeks to maybe a month but within days we had a lease signed. As a first time landlord what I appreciated most was the open communication and transparency I got every step of the way. Tianna and Tanya are both very professional and their experience shows.

While i was thrilled that she negotiated an initial offer 40k over asking price, Kim went above and beyond by diligently working to secure a fully negotiated and executed backup contract so that if there were any requests for concessions from the 1st position buyer during Inspection Period (which there were), we would have ultimate negotiating power to keep all the proceeds that she negotiated for me.  I highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a realtor who is not only knowledgeable and professional but also goes the extra mile to ensure her clients' success. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!"

I had already been through the process with my first home purchase so I was already familiar with the timeline and process of buying a home. Where Kathleen and Bonnie stepped up was hooking me up with local people for getting the loan as well as home inspections, etc. Though we were looking out of their normal area, Kathleen's natural ability to network got me the help I needed. While looking at houses Kathleen's knowledge of construction and her own experience with renovating helped me understand what may be major problems with a home or what would be easy to deal with. I didn't realize how efficient the home buying process could be before working with Seide Realty. I closed on my new home in about a month, even with some issues that had to be dealt with during the process. I highly recommend Seide Realty!"
