HomeLight was essential in expediting our home selling process. My wife and I were able to find a realtor that knew our area well and matched our personalities, making the entire process smoother. Also, the home estimate tool was another asset to help us gauge whether or not it was the right time to sell. We would definitely recommend HomeLight as the first stop when preparing to sell your home!

I reached out to HomeLight in order to sell my primary residence in Maryland. I received an email and call from HomeLight immediately! From that information, I was able to research cash payment options available but decided to not go that direction. I was contacted by the top three realtor recommendations provided by HomeLight within an hour. I chose Chris Cooke and his team got my house on the market and sold within a month. Such a great experience overall!

The agent HomeLight recommended was amazing. On her first visit to the house, she gave a detailed price range and suggested several easy cosmetic changes that made a big impact. The buyer's agent was terrible and kept dropping the ball with paperwork glitches and incorrect dates. Our agent compensated and stayed on top of the closing until it was done. I'm using HomeLight again.

I cannot say enough about the service that HomeLight provided in helping me select a realtor to sell my home. They presented me with several choices, all of whom had stellar credentials. I chose Shelley Arthur with Keller Williams. She did a spectacular job, selling my home in about a month for an amount nearing asking price. I recommend HomeLight to anyone looking for a professional to help market their home. Great job, HomeLight!

I was happy to have found the HomeLight service through my company to sell our townhouse. I was referred to an extremely competent and knowledgeable agent that had many contacts to help us get our home ready for sale. The agents at HomeLight were very responsive to my questions throughout the process and I felt like they really cared to help me during such a stressful time.

We had a great experience with HomeLight.com. We received the contact information for several real estate agents who were great candidates to list our property. When interviewing the agents, one agent already had a potential buyer and we ended up selling our property before listing it on the MLS. You can't beat ‘zero days on market'! Thanks for providing this service – it worked great for us!

We are beyond happy with Homelight for having connected us with Al Wagner. He contacted me within 8 hours of contacting him through Homelight and provided fantastic service. The market had several hiccups during the sale process and we also had a challenging home to sell due to Walmart being behind our home. Al helped us navigate all of that with ease and even brought us the buyer for our house. He deserves the high ranking provided by Homelight.

Using HomeLight was the best decision we could have made when it came to selling our house. They connected us to an amazing realtor who walked us through the process and made selling our house a breeze. She coordinated everything from photos to quick repairs and touch-ups around the house. We had our first showing on the day we listed and went under contract just 3 hours after the showing. The closing process was also very streamlined and we closed within a month.

I was continually getting emails from Homelight asking me to fill out a review on the realtor who helped us sell our home. She was not in database so we could not leave a review. Sent several emails to Homelight but kept getting emails and could not review her. Bottom line is that you can only review realtors who pay them to be there, and therefore send happy customers to leave reviews. Not really a very biased review process.

HomeLight made it very easy to find a great agent. I could see if the agent specialized in out of state moving, which was my major concern, and I had multiple ways to contact the agent-on my own or through HomeLight. HomeLight really saved me a great deal of time and frustration looking for a realtor. I found the perfect one right away and was able to have a wonderful home buying process.

I had never used or heard of HomeLight. Interestingly my wife is a real estate agent but we live too far away from my brother/mother's house for her to efficiently manage the sale of the house. I needed to limit the hassle for my 90 year old mother since my brother had passed away. I looked online for companies to buy their house without going through an real estate agent. The offers from those companies were ridiculously low.

Through the wonders of the INTERNET, search engine smarts I'll bet, HomeLight popped up. After verifying contact information etc., HomeLight sent me several real estate agents in the area. After speaking to several, one stood out as a good fit for us.

The experience with the real estate agent went extremely well and we were able sell the house for over $80,000 over the highest estimates from the other companies!

HomeLight you're the best!

HomeLight was a fantastic asset for us when we sold our home. We originally listed our recently built home with the first agent we spoke with, which ended up being a big mistake. After 7-months on market with little interest, we contacted HomeLight to get recommendations on agents who could get the job done. We called three agents, and instantly knew who we wanted to relist with. The process was seamless and all agents were fantastic. Our new agent relisted out house within a week, and we received three competing offers within the next 5 days. The sale price of our home ended up being above list, and the closing process was quick and easy. I would recommend anyone selling a home to first do their research via HomeLight.

Homelight was very helpful in the sale of our home. I contacted them about our need to move and they quickly got some agents who promptly got in touch with me. Because of Homelight it eliminated the need of taking hours and days of searching for a realtor and instead brought them to us. The rating on our realtor was high and he got the job done quickly and effectively and really worked with is. Homelight also helped in making sure we found the right realtor and reaching out.
Great experience overall. Will use again!

Using HomeLight really helped in our search for a real estate agent. We needed to sell our out of town investment property and were not familiar with any local realtors. After entering our information on the HomeLight web site, we were contacted by very helpful HomeLight representative who discussed our needs and within a few hours, we received calls from agents and made a decision. We were very happy with the agent we chose and successfully completed the transaction. In fact, all three of the agents referred by HomeLight were very responsive and professional with substantial knowledge of the local market it greatly simplified the process of finding a good agent. Highly recommend!

Tip for consumers:
Use prior to contacting agents ... big time saver.

I have sold multiple homes using realtors who came highly recommended by people I trust. Without exception, each listed the property on the local MLS which became the extent of their marketing program for my properties: If they can find it, they might come. Your service provided me with an outstanding realtor whose marketing program was impressive encompassing professionally staged and shot photos, and an extensive social media marketing campaign. And, my property was a modestly priced one bedroom condo! We sold our unit in less than the average time similar units, and we received a fair price for our property. I highly recommend HomeLight.

We decided to try Homelight when we were ready to sell a flip in a mkt we were unfamiliar with about an hour from our usual mkt. I really did not have the time to research local realtors so I contacted Homelight. They ref me to the top 3 selling agents in that mkt and we interviewed all 3. Toughest part was decided which to list with. We made our choice and she did sell the house within 6mo. Thanks Homelight for making it simple for us!

I was very pleased with the Homelight service. After a previous poor experience with a realtor and being unable to sell our home; we really needed assistance finding a good realtor to get our house sold. Homelight quickly gave me referrals for 3 realtors after a few questions on the phone. We interviewed 2 of the 3 realtors that were recommended and hired the one we liked the most. She had our house sold before we were even able to get everything ready for it to go to market. Excellent referral and overall great experience. I wish had done this the first time, would have saved us a lot of time, cost and trouble. So glad to get our house sold!

My husband and I were able to find the best agent through HomeLight. We were first time buyers, and the HomeLight representative listened to our needs to match us to an agent who was very patient with us and explained everything we needed to know about the home buying experience. After a couple of months we were able to find our dream house in Southern California

The experience was fantastic and we could not be more pleased. Homelight was easy to use and not a pressuring venue at all. We found Robin Dennis through this service and found that they had done there job of accurately representing her as an agent. She was well educated on real estate, the areas that we were looking for, and most importantly, what we were looking for. She had a lot to keep in mind with us as she had a house to sell and a house to buy. We also had specific needs for our animals as well as we have horses. Robin is kind and straightforward. When she works with you she allows you to concentrate on what you need to while she keeps you on path with next steps. We cannot thank her enough for making a very daunting task one that you feel capable of moving through. Thanks Homelight and Robin!

As a first time home buyer I was overwhelmed by trying to find the "perfect' agent. Homelight gave me several agent addresses and one was perfect for me. He had my home sold in one week for what I wanted. He was patient, understanding and explained everything very clearly. He was there every step of the way. Thank you Homelight. I would recommend them to anyone needing a real estate agent.

I originally contacted HomeLight looking for a cash buyer for my mothers house. HomeLight put me in touch with three local real estate agents. I had great communication and prompt response with all the agents. I eventually decided to go with a one of the real estate agent. The agent I decided to go with is Charity Slawter. Charity was awesome to work with, great communication and constant support in this very difficult sale. I recommend Charity so much she is going to list my house next year. I feel HomeLight is a great service because they lined up agents that are local and right for the listing.
