Testimonials

I want to thank you for all your help in listing our home. You were always available to answer questions and assist in every step of the process. Your website was easy to navigate and very helpful. Your listing generated leads and saved us a lot of money on the sale of our home in a very tough economy. Though we hope our next home will be our last, should we need to we would rely on you again and have already recommended you to friends. ~ William & Susan

Thanks for everything, I will recommend your site to all my friends. It was a great experience and easy with you, you got it down perfectly. Congratulations to your site. ~ Michael Cyr

I initially tried listing my house with another flat-fee site. They took my money and gave me the web address of a broker. I went to his site, started filling in the information, but every time I hit the enter key the site asked for my credit card number. I thought this was strange since I already paid. After several days of frustrating phone calls, a broker finally called me and said his site was under construction and would be fixed “by tomorrow.” Guess what, tomorrow came and it wasn’t fixed. Several more days of leaving voice mails went by and the broker called and said he was sorry for not getting back – he had gone to a rock concert! Enough already! Went to FlatFeeRealty.com and the house was on the MLS in just a few hours. THE HOUSE SOLD IN TWO DAYS AND I SAVED $13.5K! Thank you Fred! ~ Kelly – Saved $13,500

Flat Fee Realty is simple, fast, and cost effective. Listing our property on MLS took less than a day, and Fred was always responsive to updates and knowledgeable with our many questions. Leveraging the Broker Assistance package was worth every penny, helping us navigate through multiple offers on our property. In fact, his professionalism and expertise were instrumental in closing the deal within 8 weeks of listing. Thanks Fred! – Charles Saved $20,000

I wish I had known about Flat Fee Realty before listing my house with one of the major FSBO websites. Excellent communication, easy to use website, and effective marketing tools will get your house sold fast with Flat Fee Realty and you will save lots of money in the process! – David Saved $4,000

Hi Fred! We are celebrating! Wanted to take a minute to thank you for all of the support you’ve given during this sale. You have exceeded every expectation I had and made this sale easy and carefree for us. We enjoyed being in control of selling our own house, being able to make all the decisions and with so much of your help we were able to understand the decisions we were making. Being in control of our house sale was a wonderful feeling. The bonus, of course, was all the money we saved on commissions. Thank you, we couldn’t have done it without you! We would highly recommend your company to anyone wanting to sell their property!! Thank again, Fred – a pleasure doing this sale with you. ~ Carol Yoder

Excellent service and Fred is on top of the game. Best service I ever had in selling a home, and I have sold many through agents. He makes the process easy and simple to get in the MLS and all the other sites Realtors use and its at a reasonable price. I offered a 2.5% on a $2 million+ and Realtors were calling. I closed and saved 2.5% + I highly recommend Fred’s service and will be back next time. Thanks Fred. Gary ~ Saved OVER $50,000

We first listed for 6 months with a major agency and the listing agent never brought 1 client in for a showing. For very little effort, Flat Fee Realty saves you at least 1/2 of the commission and provides the same exposure to your listing. – Jim Giesen – Saved $11,000

It’s a tough market to sell – everyone will agree. Selling through Realty Realized gives you the ability to price aggressively and compete in a saturated market. There is no other way to go at any price point! Fred gets you the exposure you need and is exceptionally responsive. We are thrilled with the support. – Kathleen Kraemer

Fred – I wish all the Realtors were as easy to work with, professional and as quick to follow-up as you are! – Marcia Wilkes

Outstanding service and follow-up. Great hand holding exactly when needed. – Frank McLaughlin – Saved $6,000!

Excellent service and website. No reason to use an agent, saved 2.5% on the sale. Highly recommended. – Matt

Your service was great and painless and when I’m ready to sell it or rent it again I’ll be back. – Roxanne Steele

I had an excellent experience and sold the house with no broker on either side. Their presentation on Realtor.com appeared as any other listing and was done immediately on my completion of their form which was not at all cumbersome. – Linda

I started using a Realtor and could never get a hold of her or line up three people’s schedules, and I sure didn’t feel she was worth what she was going to get in commission for the little amount of work she did. So I said to heck with this, I can do it myself (well almost). I had Fred’s help and he guided me through the process and was great!!!! – Ami Bierbower

This is the second house I have sold on my own. My fiance (now wife) utilized [your service] a few months before me and had a buyer under contract in one week. I didn’t even know my home was listed yet when I got a call from a buyer’s agent for a showing. That person signed the paperwork the next day, so I sold faster than my wife and it still irks her. For all you people who are too afraid to sell on your own or think you need a professional, I sold my place in a day and I have an extra $5,500 in my pocket. There is nothing to it, your lawyer does all the real work, not the real estate agent. – Russ Anderson

Fred always answers the phone and answers emails almost instantly. Can you say that for a traditional Realtor? He processes your requests extremely fast (it took less than 5 minutes from the time I requested a listing change to the time he changed it). Additionally, my MLS listing was processed the same day I signed up. He was always happy to answer my questions and provided good advice at the same time.

I highly recommend flatfeerealty.com. I completely agree with the other comments on this site. The days of the traditional real estate agent are over. This will be my second home sale and my third home purchase. I always use the internet to find the home myself, go to the address myself, and then begrudgingly call the seller’s Realtor to schedule a tour. In the end, the seller end’s up paying $10,000 to $25,000 just to have the Realtor unlock the door of the house I want to see. Doesn’t that seems like a lot of money to pay a glorified doorman? – Dave M.

Sold my home on day one to the first person who looked at it. I had probably 20 more calls and various showing and 5 offers to exceed the first one but I had already made an agreement. It was with a Realtor for 145 days prior to that and not one offer or even a showing… I would never consider using a Realtor in the traditional way again.

I knew way more about my property and was able to have immediate showings and get potential buyers in there right away before they found something else. Also, I knew which pictures and descriptions would help sell the home and the Realtor did not want to use my ideas as they knew it all.

flatfeerealty.com was on top of any questions we had to help us with contracts and anything else we needed and the closing happened within 30 days from the contract… PERFECT SCORE! This is not a lie, I listed on a Friday Night and had a deposit check on the following morning by 10:30 am so get ready!

THANK YOU FLAT FEE REALTY FOR MAKING THIS TOO EASY. – Joe Candella

Your help and support last night was nothing short of invaluable. Not only did your immediate attention to the issues I called you about, calm and reassure me; but your assistance also helped to change the course of the dialogue with the buyer’s agent. The result – after a lot of negotiating – was a full-price offer on the house, with a compromised closing date that was much further out than they wanted, but without the open-ended term that I was hoping for until I could find a new house. The only way I could be happier would be if I knew exactly where I was moving to on the day of our closing on this house. But I trust that knowledge will come soon.

Had you not been so responsive last night – a Saturday night no less! – things would have undoubtedly gone very differently. Your response to my call put me back in a position of negotiating from strength and confidence, which was crucial to a good outcome for us.

How on earth does anyone sell real estate without you? Every time I needed your help, there you were; and never a hint that I was a bother, or anything other than a pleasure for you to help. I know I am a long way from a closing date, and nothing is sure until the closing is over and the ink is dry; but I was not going to wait for that sort of certainty before telling you how grateful I was – or that I could not have done this without you. A full price offer, in this market, on a sale-by-owner, with a buyer represented by an agent. Who would have thought it was possible? Without you, it would not have been.

Thank you again. I wish there was some sort of award for excellence that could go with this email. Unfortunately, my heartfelt words are the best I can offer you. – E.P.

Thanks Fred! Couldn’t have done it without you! The key factor for me, that your service allows me to do, is meet the potential renters while showing the property and getting information first hand by only having to negotiate and communicate through one Realtor. Thanks again for all that you do! – Marcia

Quite frankly, I don’t know why anyone would do anything EXCEPT list with your service. Incredible support throughout this whole process. You are the best. – E.P.

Fred is a true professional. outstanding customer service, calls back, e-mails back right away. We highly recommend using his services – David Gordon

I am so impressed with the service Fred provides. Signing up was easy and within days I had multiple showings. My property sold in less than one month. I interviewed a few Realtors prior to signing up with Fred. One of the Realtors was my next door neighbor, who would not consider less than 6% commission. Another Realtor wanted to grossly under price my property. Using Fred’s service, I saved thousands and didn’t go below my target sale price. I would definitely sign on with Fred again, and highly recommend this service. Thanks! – Amy

Every time I called Fred he answered the phone and helped me right away. Very professional and fast response to all inquiries, changes, etc. I have already recommend to a friend and I would use again. I saved over $4000! – Tom Bula

My friend is a Realtor and wanted my listing very badly. When I told him I was not going to pay 6%, he went into this litany of reasons to list with a full service broker. Thankfully I disregarded all of them and listed with Fred Romano’s [Connecticut] Flat Fee service. Let’s face it, 95% of real estate sales are generated by MLS. After posting my listing, and offering the buyer’s agent 2.5%, I had 15 showings and 3 offers within one week. I just closed with one of those offers. Saved over $11,000!!!! Thanks Fred! – “Mark Lorenze

CT broker, Fred Romano made the dollars spent worth it! He was professional, helpful and very quick with responses. He clearly shared what costs would incur if additional services were added and expressed the benefits of additional services. Never did he push you to purchase anything further or pull a “now you owe me”. Overall, the service has met my expectations and beyond! – Sarah

I must say your service is outstanding! Your use of technology greatly simplified the process of getting our house listed in the MLS and online fast. I wish your company great success! – Jim Blaha

An excellent service to be providing as well as excellent customer service too. Definitely recommend. – Jay H.

Wow! Excellent service, very fast response time. I signed up this morning and my property is on Realtor.com same day. Folks were friendly, knowledgeable and generally a pleasure to work with. Website signup was also very easy. Thanks! – Martin Harrison

I was very pleased with your service. It was professional and very efficient – we actually sold our home within 48 hours of our listing being posted. Thanks again for all your help and will definitely be recommending your service to others. – Tracy

Your customer service has been fantastic and I really appreciate your responsiveness and I would recommend you to anyone thinking of listing their house on their own. – Martha Q.

Thank you for you service in trying to sell our home. Everyone has been efficient and prompt. – Kelli

Many thanks for your prompt handling of our listing, and I’d like to say that I’m very impressed with the sophistication and navigability of your web sites, and the ease of the process. – Chris

This service was great, I have recommended this to all of my friends! – Ken

Professional and courteous. Site is well done. However, I had questions before purchase. Prompt and courteous response. After listing my property, they did what they said they would. Prompt attention to questions and change requests. Listing is set up to have prospective buyer call me direct for immediate response any time. This is very important, especially in this challenging market. Great Value. Definitely would recommend. – Deb M.

Very professionally handled business. Fast response to all inquiries, changes, etc. Would recommend and would use again. Great value. – Joe Mollica

Absolutely professional and courteous at every step of the transaction. Great job. – Fran Nagle

Good price, good communication. I was not able to get the MSL from agents due to where I live and they found something else I could use. Did not sell my house, but had a few lookers from this site. Thanks. – Sandy Joscelyn

Excellent value for the money, and I’m picky and did some shopping around with cheaper services (actually, from our experience having canceled a couple previous MLS services, it would be fair to use the term “best value”). The broker assigned, Fred Romano in CT, was responsive, friendly, and professional. There were no hidden “gotchas”, which is unusual on the internet. This is our experience after one month. If anything changes in our experience, I will post an update. – Assur

Great service. Efficient. Quick. Good communicators. Would definitely recommend it to others and have. – Nancy Branem

I am your customer for two days and I just cannot help myself from giving you my feedback. So far I’m absolutely impressed with what you’ve done for me. The pictures you’ve chosen for my listing’s front page are just the best choice, email contact works perfectly, and so does the phone line. Your responses to my emails are prompt and effective. I really wish I had my house for sale in CT to work with you in person. Thanks a lot! – Margarita
