Eva Rule was our agent. She did a great job. Made our experience such a pleasure. I highly recommend Eva and her team. They were very knowledgeable and made selling our home seem so easy. Thank you

Sold in one day for asking price! Need I say more? The set up, video, marketing, everything led to numerous interested parties day one with a firm offer the next day. The whole team is truly impressive. And we closed in 5 days~~~

Joe Platz expertise went beyond what I expected. Four weeks from our first meeting my home had repairs done, professional cleaning, an open house sold and moved within 30 days!

Joe is friendly and great at selling his services, however once you commit things change quickly. Joe will tell you he is not a "discount agent" however his service fails to prove that. Joe listed my house in July, with high certainty he could sell it for 5-10% more than other agents we met with. Although I didn't want to select an agent on price, Joe gave me confidence he could get the job done. After little interest through the first month or so, I contacted Joe and asked if we should reduce price. He suggested we did - though was not in any way proactive about it; I am not sure how long we would have sat on the market without doing the work ourselves. When frustrated about lack of traction, Joe suggested we should have lowered sooner, though he never suggested that. Joe and his team do a poor job marketing. I consistently had to monitor the big sites, such as Zillow, Trulia, etc. to ensure open houses were properly listed. More than once Joe's team had them listed on the wrong time and/or day. I also had a 3rd instance where physical signage did not match online advertising. Joe seems to use some sort of discount staging service. They damaged my walls and in one room used screws/nails rather than adhesive strips. Additionally, I stopped by the house one day before an open house and was shocked to find all staging furniture gone. Joe still suggests he informed us he was having it removed, though I still to this day can not find that communication. The staging company also took apart a bed that was ours, and left pieces in the closet when they realized it wasn't theirs rather than putting it back together. Finally after 4 months we received an offer for ~9% less than listing, and Joe failed to advise us that the buyers financing was risky. We were off-market pending for several weeks before buyer financing fell through and we were back to square one. Overall my experience with Joe was poor. If you use him, plan to do a lot of leg work yourself and be aware of any level of pricing he suggests.

Great team of professionals helping to sell my home and help me to buy a new home. Loved that my realtor came over to help paint and even help me move. There was lots of communication to understand what was happening throughout the whole process.
