What They're Saying About DFWCityhomes
Testimonials from clients of DFWCityhomes. Prominent Clients give reviews:
"Tod is very knowledgeable and professional. My wife and I interviewed over 6 agents before chosing DFWCITYHOMES. Tod understood the challenges we were facing, due to foreclosures in the neighborhood and the current real estate market. We followed Tod's advice and sold our home in less then 90 days - current DOM in our area was minimum 180!!! Tod's help to us was invaluable. If you are looking for a knowledgable, professional, get the job done agent then Tod is your guy.
He will walk with you every step of the way. Tod, was there to answer any questions and the process was very easy. I have seen offers like this, but the personal service that Tod provides is exceptional."
Kenny and Tanika Donnell - Cedar Hill, Texas
"Although there are many realtors out there offering flat fee listings I doubt there are any who could (or would) offer the level of service that Tod did during our extremely challenging transaction. Whether it was late night calls/emails or dealing with an incredibly difficult and unreasonable buyers agent I always felt like I got a level of service equal to a full service listing. In fact, having listed twice before with full service agents, I might even say Tod\'s service was better than theirs. Thank you Tod, not sure we could have made it through closing without you."
Stuart and Connie Oertli - Keller, Texas
"Tod provided our family an invaluable service in helping to sell our home. He was professional, polite and efficient. The pictures of our home that went on the Internet were outstanding. Tod provided us great information and was an advocate for us during the actual selling of our home. Our house started showing immediately and sold in just under two months. Here is the kicker to all of this- we saved thousands of dollars by using Tod\'s company instead of a traditional real estate agent! Thanks Tod for everything!"
Tyler and Amy Anderson - Rockwall, Texas
"In this real estate market, my husband and I were struggling with the profit that we would not make on the sale of our home after paying real estate agent fees. We decided to list our home with Tod at DFWCityHomes after only a Google search for MLS listing services. I am so glad that we did! We had a contract on our home in 9 days to another family who was working without a realtor, saving us nearly $20,000. Tod was quick to get our home on the market, very knowledgeable and always accessible for questions and consultation. I have recommended him to several friends. I could not be more happy with the result."
Trevor and Lindsey Starnes - Dallas, Texas
"We are very satisfied with DFWCityhomes. Tod's great; very professional
and quick to respond to any concerns we have."
Robert and Elizabeth Guest - Ennis, Texas
"Tom and I thank the Lord for his convictions, guidance and goodness
to us during this time of marketing our home, selling it and purchasing
a new one! He never ceases to amaze us... in both prosperous times and
difficult trials.
We thank him for your participation during this time and we are grateful
to you as well. You really helped us to make "uncharted waters" for
us a much smoother sailing. You have been a blessing and we turly appreciate
you. Most gratefully and sincerely in Christ"
Tom and Faith Craft - Murphy, Texas
"Tod is very knowledgeble about the process of selling your home, he
knows the North Texas Market, and he knows the techniques that buyers
realtors use. He always has the sellers best interest in mind. The bottom
line you can trust Tod to guide you through the sale of your home."
John and Kelly Hemenway - Frisco, Texas
"Now that our house is officially sold, let me say a heartfelt thank
you for your service. We had the house on the market for two plus
months with a full service broker and had nothing but problems.
They wrote lousy copy, took terrible pics and worst of all, had no marketing
plan. When we moved to your service, using our pics, copy and
marketing, the house sold in a few days and with multiple offers.
We would gladly refer ANYONE to your service."
Scott and Jo Tyree - Rowlett, Texas
"My wife and I moved to Texas a year ago. We knew we wanted to
purchase a home, but were very unfamiliar with the best areas to move
into. We wanted not only a great deal, but a great deal in a great
area. Tod was very patient and helpful during the process of finding
the perfect home. He had great market knowledge that really helped
us feel confident in the purchase of our next home. In the end
we found the perfect house at the perfect price. Tod went above
and beyond in the final stages of our home purchase to make sure we
were well taken care of during the final negotiations. We are
looking forward to the purchase of our next home and taking advantage
of Tod's listing services in the future."
Luke and Stephanie Williams - Coppell, Texas
"Tod created an eye-catching MLS listing and brochure. Additionally,
he provided useful information about trends in the market. Thanks"
John & Kelly Hemenway - Frisco, Texas
"We loved the price and the service! For under $500, we had our house
put on MLS and had many qualified renters come by to look at it. Within
a couple of months we had a very qualified renter who signed a 14 month
lease. This was after we actually turned one down! I would definitely
use Tod's services again...when we try to sell our house in a year or
so. I would highly recommend Tod!"
Sue Berk - Dallas, Texas
"Tod has been very professional on all 5 of our transactions. One purchase
and 4 sales. Tod is efficient and is a good negotiator. On several deals
Tod was able to keep the closing alive and get it done. I highly suggest
you use Tod's services. He is a PRO I have recommended Tod to several
friends and other investors. Thank you."
Carl Richards - Carrollton, Texas
"Tod, is punctual, professional and hard working. His work in selling
our house, is equal to or better than the work done by a traditional
broker, who charges 3% to list a house."
Bob and Pat Joyce - Keller, Texas
"If you are a savvy homeowner or investor that likes to save money on
real estate transactions, then this is the only way to go. For a very
reasonable flat fee, Tod Franklin listed my house on the MLS complete
with professional photos, a yard sign, lockbox and marketing material
copy. In short, everything I needed to sell my home. I sold the home
in 55 days during a buyers market and saved 3% by not paying the traditional
listing agent commission. I happily paid the selling agent's commission
that brought my eventual buyer to me. Tod was always available to answer
questions and send me leads via email. Would I do it again? In a heartbeat."
Rhonda Norman - Dallas, Texas
"We listed our condo for sale using the Full Listing Service package
provided by DFWCityhomes. Realtor, Tod Franklin, was excellent to work
with. He expertly came out, took multiple pictures, created an awesome
ad/flier, and efficiently listed our condo on a variety of sites for
us. Tod was easily accessible to answer questions or explain details
throughout the process. Ultimately we ended up leasing our condo, but
in the future, when we're ready to buy or sell property in the Dallas
area, we will call Tod Franklin at DFWCityhomes."
Elaine Laroa - Dallas, Texas
"Tod was thorough, professional, and helped us accomplish our goal of
selling our house in a very tough market. He was a tremendous resource
in helping us price our home and was instrumental in helping us maximize
our sales price when we were lucky enough to generate multiple offers.
I highly recommend DFWCITYHOMES.COM!"
Michael Pollak - Dallas, Texas
"This is a great service that fit my needs. Tod was very responsive
and willing to discuss any concerns that I had. The pictures and exposure
to my listing were great. Tod handled the negotiations when needed along
with giving me advice on how to counter the offers that came my way."
Stan Katz - Dallas, Texas
"I was extremely happy with the services provided by DFWCityhomes when
we sold our home. We received virtually all of the services provided
by a full real estate service throughout the entire process and saved
thousands of dollars in commissions. The entire selling process was
very simple, we received all the assistance needed, and had accepted
an offer within weeks of listing our home. We compared many different
services before going with DFWCityhomes, and none of the others provided
anywhere near the services and features for the price. Will absolutely
use again next time we sell a home in the DFW area.
What was the obstacle that would have prevented you from buying this
service? Naive thinking that a full broker would give better service.
My fear was not knowing what to expect in the selling process. The reality
is that it was so much easier than expected. Everything I thought would
be difficult is taken care of by the title company, the whole process
was very simple.
What did you find as a result of buying this service? The selling
process is easier than expected.
What specific feature did you like most about this service? Unlike
most flat fee listing services, the front sign looks like it is from
a full service real estate agency, not a for sale by owner sign.
What would be three other benefits about this service? Saved thousands
of dollars and received virtually all of the services provided by full
service commission based realtors.
Would you recommend this service? If so, why? Yes, one of the
rare occasions I actually got more than expected. Couldn't have
been more pleased with the whole experience.
Eric - Fort Worth, Texas
"The way homes are sold is changing. In this competitive buyer's market,
sellers no longer can afford to pay 6% commissions. Tod's service is
the home seller's answer. With Tod, we have not sacrificed personal
attention in the least bit. He has always been prompt in returning all
of our calls and has not hastened to follow up with any of our questions
or requests. If you are in the market for saving thousands of dollars
and for personal attention, then Tod's your guy."
John and Magdalena Wiertzema - Saginaw, Texas
"DFWCityhomes provides exceptional service that goes beyond simply
providing a listing service. From beginning to end of the sales
process, Tod is always there to answer questions and tweak the listing
to get buyers through the door. Last but not least, we saved over
$8,000 by using DFWCityhomes! No doubt, I recommend DFWCityhomes
to all my family and friends."
Will D. - Dallas, Texas
"DFWCityhomes and Tod provided excellent service at a very reasonable
cost. I have sold two other houses using discounted listing services
and DFWCityhomes is by far the best. We can start from the
very 1st email I sent to Tod. He responded immediately with a
form to fill out regarding information on my house etc. Within
24 hours Tod had comparable analysis with a good idea on what I should
be listing my house for. We then set-up an appointment and he came and
took photos of our house. The very next day the house was listed.
This was a Saturday evening and on Sunday morning I had request from
two separate perspective buyers to look at the house. Throughout the
listing period Tod keep me informed on perspective buyers etc.
We had an offer within 11 days during a very slow market. Additionally,
this was in August which is also a slower period. Tod assisted me in
helping negotiate a price and gave some valuable advise that assisted
me in determining counter offers etc.
What was the obstacle that would have prevented you from buying this
service? Naive thinking that a full broker would give better service.
What did you find as a result of buying this service? I found
that I received better customer service than I ever had from a full
service broker. Yes I had to do some little things on my own but
Todd was always there for guidance.
What specific feature did you like most about this service? Tod's
attention to detail and reliability. The Photography was outstanding.
What would be three other benefits about this service? Low cost,
ability to cancel at anytime without being obligated to the realtor.
Convenience.
Would you recommend this service? If so, why? Yes, For all of the previous
reasons above.
Is there anything you’d like to add? If you are a homeowner that
is proud of your house and want the best service at a low cost, then
DFWCityhomes is the place for you."
Dan Wilson - Southlake, Texas
"Our house had been on the market for over a year and listed with two
different brokers. After listing with Todd, we had a buyer in
less than two weeks. He handled all the negotiations like the
professional he is and the closing ran very smoothly. He also
helped us look for a house when we thought we were going to be relocating
within the Metroplex and was great to work with. We have already
recommended Todd to friends and will continue to do so. We will
definitely use him again if we move back to Texas.'
Tracey Larsen - Keller, Texas
"My experience using DFWCityhomes to list our home in Lewisville was
way above my expectations. Tod went above and beyond answering
all my questions, spending time with me on the phone, and returning
all my e-mail's and voice mails in a timely matter. I have used
a traditional realtor in the past to sell my home and after using DFWCityhomes
listing service, I will never go back listing with a 3% Realtor.
The cost savings is incredible; our home was listed on the MLS & looked
like any other home on the market. I am always leery of
recommending services/people to friends & family unless I am 100% confident
they will get superb service. I have already recommended
DFWCityhomes to a close friend and plan to keep recommending them to
all my friends and family!
What was the obstacle that would have prevented you from buying this
service? My past realtor had told me if I used a broker listing service,
realtors would boycott and not show my house. This was 100% false
information & a scare tactic to keep people using the traditional 3%
listing fee. My listing looked like every other listing
on the MLS and on closing day I learned that the buyers had no idea
I didn't have a 6% realtor. They never new.
What did you find as a result of buying this service? I was pleasantly
surprised I had made a great decision for my family. I had no
regrets and not one negative thing to say/warn about my experience.
What specific feature did you like most about this service? The
value. What you get for your money is an incredible value, you
truly do get to keep more money in your pocket from the sell of your
home.
What would be three other benefits about this service? The lock
box you get for you door is the one all the area Realtors use.
The sign for the yard makes it look like a regular listing, & the professional
pictures you get taken of your home by DFWCityhomes.
Would you recommend this service? If so, why? I would recommend
this service because the value you get with it far out ways the competition.
How did you find out about DFWCityhomes? Googling ways to sell my home
& make more money.
Julie Ayala - Lewisville, Texas
"The flat listing service was extremely beneficial in the sale of our
property. While we only had one real estate showing, the extra
exposure on the various websites on the internet is what brought our
buyer to us. We closed without paying any agent fees other than
the flat fee to DFWCityhomes Service."
H. Leavell - Canton, Texas
"Tod did a great job of helping us sell our home. I would use him again."
Gary Cowsert - Austin, Texas
"I would definitely recommend DFWCityhomes to anyone wanting to sell
their home. Its a great value and they have great customer service.
DFWCityhomes saved me thousands of dollars and made listing my home
an easy process."
Shawn Woodward - Benbrook, Texas
"Tod was very professional, very knowlegable and always returned my
calls in a timely fasion. I would highly recommend him for all your
real estate needs."
Thad Zurawski - Chicago, Illinois
"We were extremely impressed with Tod's professionalism and attention
to detail. He always responded quickly to our requests and was a joy
to work with. We will ALWAYS use him in the future for buying and selling
real estate and already refer to him whenever we have the chance!"
Kirk and Susan Loveless - Rhome, Texas
"As an owner/investor I have bought, sold and leased properties for
over 20 years. The quality service that Tod provides at a fraction of
the full service cost increases my bottom line and removes the frustration
of doing it myself. He has become a trusted partner in my real estate
transactions. I highly recommend Tod to anyone needing a real estate
professional. "
Andy and Shirley Boyd - Dallas, Texas
"We really appreciate you getting this listed for us so soon! I am very happy to be working with a "real" person and not just a big flat fee business. Thanks!"
Michael and Kim Daly - Wylie, Texas
