This is the second time we have worked with David Bartels on a home sale. Both times he exceeded expectations. Before we made the decision to sell, David was very helpful with preliminary decision making. When the time was right, David sat down with us to gain a full understanding of our goals. Then, he put together a plan to achieve those goals. He followed through and did exactly what he said he would do to achieve our goals and ultimately exceeded what we had hoped for.David is a real professional with extensive knowledge of the real estate market as well as the mechanics of the sale itself. He explains concepts and terms clearly and lays out plans in an easy to understand way. He is fair minded and a great negotiator.I would not hesitate working with David on future home sales and have recommended him to friends and family.

This is the first time I've used “Everhome Realty” however second time I've used a flat fee company. Everhome offered more services than most flat fee companies. Our agent (Elena out of South Florida) was very engaging and had a genuine interest in having a successful transaction at the right price in a timely manner. She was responsive to our concerns in a quickly changing market and provided market analysis products to justify her recommendations. She also made "money-saving" suggestions for the closing process.Our house went on the market right as the Fed was raising rates (Spring ’22) which caused an immediate “cooling down” of a previously red-hot seller’s market in FL. Properties that previously were being bought virtually… and practically sight unseen, were now being knit-picked over the interior paint scheme to lower the price! After my initial attempt at FSBO had not produced any offers, we signed up with Everhome then followed Elana's recommendations and soon had an offer within the expected average days on the market for our price point…which we were happy to get our (adjusted) listing pricing!!. The Buyer’s Agent (BA) was very un-involved and non-communicative once the purchase contract was signed (later learned buyers were from W. Palm Beach but referred to BA in Miami-Dade.) In our opinion she embodied most traits that reflect poorly with realtors as a profession…make unfulfilling promises then do as little as possible yet expect a handsome payday at closing. Elena doggedly sent repeated emails and texts for the BA, title company and Lenders to keep US in the loop of the closing process let them know we are available to provide any info needed to expedite the process. Elena did not receive a single call from BA until day of closing (which was postponed due to Ian)…NOW they were wanting info to assist the new owner with the property.Overall, did Everhome save me money?…Yes; Did they provide the services claimed?…Yes; Would I use them again and/or recommend them?...Yes; Will I ever use a “full service” listing agent again?...Definitely Not!!

We have been getting harassing phone calls on our cell phone from this company for 3 weeks now. The person going by the name of Christian a telemarketer working for an agent or realtor is doing this deliberately most likely out of the anger they are not having luck in there commission pay only job...whatever the reason the person was informed that we would not be interested in the service, which is obvious to them by now anyways.. The service would further more be a rip off to us due to the selling price. WE will now have to file a harassment complaint to authorities and look into a Lawsuit against the company. My advise as a retired business consultant would be to stay away from this kind of business practice completely, and report it to the BRE.

David and Everhome were great at selling our home. They offered expert advice which was accurate and helped us sell our home substantially over asking prince. We also saved greatly on realtor's commissions by using Everhome. He and his staff were always attentive to our needs and were very prompt to answer our questions and concerns. I highly recommend David Bartels and Everhome without reservation.

My husband and I had an amazing experience with the Everhome team. Communications were clear and concise and things moved forward at a great pace. Not to say you save a lot of money! Something for any buyer or seller to explore.

David, Heidi, and the staff did a fantastic job helping me sell my home. It is absolutely true that they offer full service for a fraction of the fee of a traditional broker. David helped guide me through the listing process, arranged for multiple showings, managed multiple offers, then got the deal done! I saved $thousands in commissions without sacrificing any assistance at all. Thanks again for your expertise.

Once in a great while I'll eat at a restaurant, have an excellent meal, get the bill, and MARVEL at how they can provide such quality and satisfaction at such a reasonable price!I have another such experience to report; this time the "restaurant" is Everhome Realty.I closed out a $3 Million property that I had WISELY listed with Everhome.I got the benefit of full service representation, possibly even BETTER, and saved more than $70,000 in sales commission charges.David Bartels and his entire Everhome team are pure class and 100% competent all the way!

Working with Everhome was a wonderful experience from listing to close! The entire team ensured that everything was done thoroughly and in a timely manner. Working with Jeff and Heidi was delightful! They responded quickly to address every question we had. The technology used by Everhome makes the entire process fast!

Everhome, is like no other real estate agency. I love the business model. It allows an owner to save lots of money, but receive; marketing, negotiation, legal and insurance assistance.We signed up and paid a low flat fee to Everhome. We paid no seller's commission. We were able to set our own buyers agents commission, which save us even more money. Everhome, listed our house on the MLS and major realty websites. Calls for appointments were screened by Everhome, for pre-qualification and sent to us. We set up appointments and showed the house ourselves. We enjoyed meeting everyone. We liked telling them all there is to do in the neighborhood. We gave them remodeling ideas. We even pointed out the plants and produce in the yard. When multiple offers came in David Bartels CEO of Everhome was a master negotiator. He educated us on real estate methods and practices. Sometimes we did not agree. Therefore, he helped us separate our emotions from logic and come to a compromise. He was wise, experienced, patient and professional. He insured that we accepted the financially strongest offer. This prevented the deal from falling out of escrow later. David and his amazing staff called, texted, and emailed every day during escrow. This allowed escrow to close smoothly and on time.Selling your home is very stressful. Emotionally, letting go of people and places in the area. Mentality, it is challenging because of all the legal jargon and documents. Physically stressful because of all the downsizing, garage sales, craigslist, and packing up the house and yard. We trusted and depended on David and the Everhome staff. Not only did they get us through, but David was fun, and often made us laugh. So, if you want less stress, with all the benefits of a realtor but don't want to spend $30,000, then Everhome is for you. It would be crazy not to use Everhome. We will always use them and we think everyone should.Aileen and ChrisVentura

Heidi and Jeff helped us sell a house and buy a house in a very fast moving market with places selling very quickly. It had been a while since we moved and they explained the whole as we went along. We used their moving van for moving things out of storage and that went well.

I worked with Jeff Atkinson and Everhome Realty during a recent real estate transaction. We sold our home of 26 years. It has been so long since we sold a house and I have to admit, I was apprehensive about using a "discount" firm. Frankly the huge cost savings helped me to overcome any misgivings I had. I was pleasantly surprised at how seamless and painless the whole process was. Jeff answered a lot of questions up front and his sage advise put my fears to rest. Not only did we save a lot of money in real estate commissions but we sold the house for almost 10% over our asking price! Jeff was completely professional throughout the entire process and everything went great. I can't imagine I'm ever going to work with a full price brokerage again!
