Andy Bovender

Megan was the best agent we have ever had. She went above and beyond for us more than once. She always had our best interests in mind. We had a bad building experience. She stayed on top of the builder to make sure all of our concerns were addressed!

Ellen is amazing! My family relocated to Charlotte from the West Coast and she helped us find the perfect home. She's so knowledgeable about the neighborhoods here and the nuance of each. Ellen had our best interests in mind throughout the entire process of creating an offer, all the way through closing. She made this process feel personal and warm, something I did not expect to find in a city the size of Charlotte. Our experience was wonderful, a warm welcome to North Carolina and I can't imagine working with anyone else. Ellen is a gem!

We had the pleasure to work with Ellen during a very hectic housing market in Baxter Village (it continues to be crazy). We cannot say enough about her help, guidance, honesty and how often she went above and beyond to help us. In a few short months Baxter Village housing market has sky rocketed and we consistently were dealing with houses selling sight-unseen or first day with multiple offers. Ellen was SO quick to jump to accommodate us for showings, offers and necessary insight without hesitation, for that matter even interrupting her plans. She was fantastic thinking outside the box in how to make our offer(s) that much more competitive in this market. Without a doubt in our mind, she had our interest at heart helping us in so many ways that went above the call of duty never once pushing us towards something she didnt believe was right. She genuinely wanted us to find the right home and make a smart investment. Ellen provided us with so many resources to help us make the best decision and even resources for after our purchase; ultimately, she made our buying experience so much better for it or tolerable during this crazy market. We truly are fortunate to have crossed paths with her and strongly recommend contacting her if you are thinking of buying or selling. We will absolutely be calling her again when the time comes!

Madalyn is simply the best. Hands down. We were completing a cross-country move and she was so helpful with taking detailed videos for us of houses, listening to what we were interested in for the home specs, and finding us our dream home. When we found the one, she worked quickly to secure our offer. She was available for questions and talked us through each step of the process. She truly had our best interest at heart. She even went above and beyond when we had questions on the sale of a current property. If you are looking for a genuine, outgoing, helpful agent, Madalyn is your person!

We worked with Gil to sell our home this past year. He went well above what we would expect of our realtor. He not only helped us sell our house but helped us in many other ways such as getting us packing materials to help pack up the house. He is an excellent realtor and my family and I would highly recommend him.

Highly recommended! Helped us navigate through the ups and downs of selling a house readily and professionally. Always easy to reach with my multitude of questions as well.

Our experience with Ben was excellent. Ben knows the industry well. He had all of the processes lined up and completed to allow a rapid offer, negotiation, and close on a home that we loved. Bens efforts and knowledge were critical in the fast paced Carolinas housing market. We highly recommend Ben Lastra and his team.

Ben went above and beyond for us, and then he went a little further. We could not have asked for a better agent, and really a better friend, to guide us through the process of buying our first home. Ben is incredibly knowledgeable about the home buying process in both North and South Carolina - he is able to use that knowledge to give you an edge over the market, and give you insights you wouldnt otherwise get from an average agent. We learned so much about the home buying process. Ben took the time to teach us about the important aspects of writing offers, what to look for in a home and, perhaps most importantly, which home would be a genuinely good fit for us and our needs. Ben is the agent who feels like family, and acts like it too. Were so grateful he was on our team.

Gil is an excellent Realtor who went above and beyond to sell our house in Charlotte last year. He is very personable and cares about his clients. He helped us with showings and open houses plus providing us with moving boxes and more! Despite having to drop our listing price several times Gil was able to sell our house at a fair price. I highly recommend Gil as your realtor!

Where to begin Meghan and her entire team were simply outstanding. If there were a concierge home buying service, this would be it! We had just moved to North Carolina from Massachusetts and Meghan came highly recommended to us. From the very beginning, Meghan seemed to have a drop everything and get it done attitude and always had an answer for every question we had (she is extremely knowledgeable). We were so lucky to find the home we were dreaming of and could not have made it through this process without her. Melanie also made all the steps of the closing process seamless. It almost seemed like everything was on autopilot for us and all we had to do was focus on packing, lining up movers and signing the paperwork at closing. We think an uneventful home purchase is the best kind one where you dont have to worry about whats next. Meghan and her team certainly made that a reality for us and were such a pleasure to work with. If you are looking to buy or sell a home, you are in good hands with this dream team!!

Debbie is a jewel! She patiently guided us through every step of our transaction. She is professional, kind, and caring. Her entire team went over and beyond what was expected. I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants a seamless professional experience selling their home. Howard and Shelby Fullerton

I highly recommend Tiffany she is extremely knowledgeable, reliable and she has excellent communication and has the most competent team. She made the home buying process stress free and easy. I recommend her to everyone and if we are ever in search of purchasing another home she will be the first person we call.

Madalyn helped us move from NY to NC with ease due to her knowledge of the area and responsiveness when a new house came on the market. Being that we were in NY during a fast sellers market in NC, she often had to jump to see a house for us where she sent videos of the neighborhood as well as of the home. She was honest when she didnt think the home was what we wanted and fought for us to get the house we wanted and at the price we wanted to pay. We couldnt speak more highly of Madalyn.

We started working with Meghan Reynolds last spring. We knew we were ready to move on from our current home, but weren't quite sure what our next chapter looked like. She helped us identify the things we should do to our home to ensure we attract the best buyers. She also helped us finally decide to build our dream home in the most perfect neighborhood for our family. Through Meghan's expert guidance we sold our home almost immediately and for $15K over what we listed for. Our home was staged beautifully and a new family walked in and fell in love. While all of this was going on, she helped guide us through the process of building our dream home. Meghan was our cheerleader and expert. We are so thankful we had Meghan in our corner throughout this process. She really took a lot of the stress out of buying and selling at the same time in this crazy real estate market we find ourselves in. Thank you so much Meghan! ?

I have used multiple realtors over the past 35 years and pretty much had very good experiences. I have to say that Tiffany White was the best we've ever worked with. She is very thorough, anticipates whats coming, and absolutely has your best interests in hand as you move through the process. She is not about rushing to get the deal done, rather, making sure the property doesn't have any major problems that could linger if not found and addressed immediately. Tiffany is an extremely hard worker, and understands that eventually there is property for everyone's wish list.....and usually not the first one!! I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in the Charlotte market and beyond. I believe she's licensed in both NC and SC. She just helped us close on a Lake House on Lake Tillery in Mt Gilead, NC. She is an outstanding realtor.....

Hugh guided us through our first home purchase. We found him and the Bovender team through their stellar reviews after doing extensive research on local agents. Hugh exceeded our expectations.We started our home search with Hugh in early November and had closed and moved by the end of December. Hugh was very responsive from start to finish, recommending new homes daily that all fit our criteria. He was very flexible in scheduling home visits around our tight schedules and shared his own perspective on each house - calling out things we wouldn't have thought to look for as new buyers. He is also incredibly personable, making us feel comfortable and informed about the process from day 1 - something that was very important to us as we hadn't bought a house before. He and the Bovender closing team also helped us close in a matter of weeks, while negotiating thousands back in closing costs. We 100% recommend working with Hugh. We will definitely work with him again if we move around the Charlotte area and recommend him to all of our friends. Fantastic experience especially for first time buyers!

In 2020, we relocated our family across the country from Minnesota. Given the distance and the pandemic, we were not able to be present in the area for an extended home search. Vicki never let the distance deter her from making us feel like we were her number one client. Vicki helped us set up a whirlwind home showing weekend, where we eventually decided to build a home and not buy existing. During the build process, Vicki served as our boots on the ground. She was proactive with the builder and consistently kept us in the loop when anything changed with the timeline or the build process. Building a home more than 1,200 miles away can be filled with anxiety and bumps in the road, but Vicki helped us navigate the process with ease. Vicki was always professional and always worked to find the solution to any problem.Vicki helped us find the right house, in the right neighborhood, with great schools, where we can grow our family and we are forever grateful for her help and guidance.

Our property was an estate sale which was loaded with unique challenges. This team handled it all with patients and care through to the end. Their knowledge and support was undeniably the best anyone could ever hope for. We were so blessed to have them working for us...and work they did! I would recommend them to everybody with total confidence knowing they couldn't do better. Thank you Bovender Team for everything. Sincerely, Arden Armstrong

Great Team! Always responded back immediately when I had questions or needed help. Made selling my home an easy and stress less process! Highly recommend this amazing team!

The Bovender team is the best of the best. Buying a home can be a stressful process, but we actually enjoyed our home buying experience because of Vicki Ford and Michele Smith. They were kind, patient, knowledgeable and attentive to us every step of the way. They even went above and beyond to share local contacts with us and to make us feel most welcomed to the area. I would recommend them to anyone who would like to enjoy thier home buying or selling experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making our dream a reality! Emily Blank

What a joy to work with Andy and team. Selling your home can be stressful, and the Bovender team took all the stress out of it. They are like a Real Estate Concierge! Gracious, friendly and trustworthy - this team is a great team. I cannot recommend them enough.

In 2015, I needed to relocate me and my family to another city, and was beginning a new job there in 30 days. In the area where we were living, it was well known by our neighborhood that if you saw one of Andy's sign go up on someone's front yard, you knew that were going to see a sold sign on it within just a few weeks. I knew Andy was the right person to call and called him immediately. Andy was amazing. First of all, I didn't realize that he would come to our home for our first meeting. I expected an agent from his team. But he came directly. Within a few minutes of walking through the house, and hearing our expectations, Andy gave us what he felt would be market value, and backed that up with what he had already researched and just inherently knew about the neighborhood since he had sold so many homes there already. In fact, we learned that Andy was familiar with the home as he had sold it to the original buyers before us! I was incredibly happy with the next steps that Andy offered to us, including a team of people dedicated to those next steps - getting the contract signed, listing up, marketing handled, and all of the crazy steps you don't know when you're selling a home (this was our first time), such as must have maintenance work that buyer's expect, inspections, and more. I think my favorite service was something that none of my friends with other agents had experienced - a professional stager who walked through our house in a half hour with us, gave us to-the-point recommendations, and INSTANTLY made our home not only beautiful and viewer-ready, but also MORE LIVEABLE. Honestly, we looked at each other after we made every single suggestion on one weekend and felt like one of those TV shows where we wanted to stay after all of the work was complete. But alas, the job relo... The reality: We had our first offer in 11 days. That's right. ELEVEN days. And our price was not low. It was market value. But more, it was market ready. We also had 3 more requests that came in with a notice of 'we love the house and location, and if anything falls through with the buyer please let us know'. Who gets those? Well, it was a good thing, because the first buyer did, in fact, fall through and we were able to go with another couple that wanted the home. We closed within 45 total days from the second listing, an amazing feat considering there was a contingency to sell from our 2nd buyer. Andy's approach is awesome, and his demeanor is fabulous. His depth of experience and knowledge of selling and buying homes, and his team's focus on execution and ensuring you understand and are involved in the process (as much or as little as you need to be), are apparent throughout the entire process. To say that we were pleased with our experience is an understatement. We were thrilled; so much so that I called Andy and asked him for his recommendation on an agent to use in our new market when we wanted to purchase a second home. So we sold our home and had an amazing experience. And then, one day I was at a conference in NYC and Andy was on stage representing Allen Tate Realtors as their number one team, and as a Top 100 Agent across the country. I laughed and went to thank him for his hard work. I definitely chose the right person and team when I chose the Andy Bovender Team!!

When we met Andy we were impressed with his knowledge of the local market where our deceased daughters house is located. We also liked his low key with no pressure. He introduced us to his team and they all guided us every step of the way to sell her house. You can trust Andy and his team.

The Andy Bovender team was outstanding in handling the sale of my house. The staff was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and responsive to any questions I had. I highly recommend this group of extremely competent and friendly team members to anyone who is needing real estate guidance.

I sold my house with The Bovender Team and purchased another one and I have to say they are the best! Andy has put together a highly effective and professional team that truly assists you from feigning to end in the buying and selling process. They get the job done with the least amount of stress possible. Will definitely use them again. Thanks Andy!

I just cannot say enough good things about the Andy Bovender Team and even more specifically, Debbie Hooker who is part of that partnership. We have bought and sold multiple homes over the years with Debbie. In fact, I can't imagine ever doing a real estate transaction without them involved. You are not just hiring a realtor, you are hiring a team. Debbie does an amazing job of orchestrating a team of people who each contribute to the process. Listing, Closing, and everything between, each person I worked with knows their stuff, cares about me and my needs, and drives solutions. Said simply, top notch professional organization that gets results.

Andy and his team went beyond our expectations. From the initial marketing stage to the final inspection days before closing, they were the upmost professional and knowledgeable realtors. They sold our house during the very stressful time of the pandemic but they made it seem easy and stayed positive during the entire process. In our opinion, the Bovender Team is the best in this area!

Ben was great! He did a great job find the exact house I was looking for. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house. He is very patient and listened to what I was looking for so he could find me the perfect house.

My home sold above asking price after two days on the market. Ben is good at what he does and made my recent condo sale a breeze! This was my first time selling a home a Ben was a great guide through the entire sales process. He made sure that I understood everything along the way and that I was able to make the best decisions for me and my family. What I loved most about working with Ben and his team is that they are all extremely dependable and professional. They do what they say they're going to do and they operate with high quality standards. I felt like I was in good hands the entire time and I can't say enough about how pleased I am with the whole experience.

Do not make the mistake of passing by Ben as your realtor. He has an amazing energy and tenacity to ensure your home purchase is smooth and as stress free as possible.

Ben has recently helped us purchase a property in Charlotte ,NC . We closed on the property last week. This is a highly competitive market and it is difficult to win the contract with ought over paying.. Ben is very skillful in submitting the correct offer to get the property and not over pay. He was very patient with us until we found the right home. Being responsive is also a skill he does not lack. Knowledge of the area I give him An A+ rating. When it is time to sell I will most defiantly be searching Ben Lastra out to be my Listing Agent!

My wife and I enjoyed our experience working with Ben and his team. From the get go, he was attentive to what we were looking for in our first home and made the process easy with us being located out of state.

Ben was remarkable to work with! We had approached Ben back in May to get his thoughts on the current housing market. At this time we weren't even convinced that we were interested in selling our house but wanted to learn more. Ben took multiple phone calls with us to talk us through any and every question we had! He even came by our house and provided guidance on some repairs and updates that new home owners are typically interested in. Once we felt like our house was ready we began reviewing potential neighborhoods. Ben was able to provide invaluable advice! We fell in love with one particular neighborhood and Ben patiently waited with us until the perfect house came on the market! Once we went under contract on our dream home we listed our house which sold in a matter of days and over list price! The entire closing process on both homes was seamless. I would recommend Ben to any and everyone selling a home in the Fort Mill/Charlotte area!

Working with Ben was a perfect fit for our needs. He was knowledgeable about the area we wanted to move to, helped set up an online portal to view homes that met our criteria, and aas an excellent resource when making an offer on our dream home.

I was recommended Ben by my sister and her husband when they we're looking for a home in the Fort Mill area. They were so pleased with how helpful and knowledgeable he was that they said I had to use him. A couple months later when I got serious about looking, I reached out to him and he remembered exactly who I was and the search began. I really wanted to be in Tega Cay with all the recreation around... golf and fishing in particular. Once I found the perfect house with the lake down the street and the golf course practically in the backyard, Ben handled the rest. He was able to negotiate getting major improvements completed and on time all at the right price. If the guy wasn't a realtor, he could easily be a contractor or home inspector because he knows so much about every detail of a house all of which is another language to me altogether. He also put me in contact with a great lender which was also a smooth process compared to what I've heard from friends who have been through it all. If you're looking for an easy, first time buying experience, I highly recommend going with Ben.

Ben was incredible to work with in selling our home! We thought selling our home was going to be extremely stressful, however he handled the entire process and made it a seamless one for our family. Ben outlined a clear marketing strategy for our home and executed it perfectly. Through his vision we went under contract on the same weekend we listed! Not only did we sell our home quicker than expected, but Ben was also able to get us multiple above asking offers! Our friends that we've referred have also had a great experience! Ben continues to check in on our family after we've closed. If you're in the market for a realtor... there's nobody that will look after you and your best interests like Ben.

Ben has been a dream to work with. He was recommended to us by a close friend and I'm so glad he was! He worked with us every step of the way from setting up showings and viewings, to helping us know what to expect for the home inspection for the house we were selling in another state. Ben worked with our personality types to determine the best location to fit our needs and wants. When it came to showings and viewings, he went above and beyond. At one point as Covid-19 was ramping up, he went to a showing by himself and face timed us to allow us the ability to see the home without risk. He made the home buying process easy, he was very responsive, always on time, and was very, very personable. I would totally have a drink with him.

Erin and I are very thankful that we met Ben early on in our home buying journey. We knew we were in good hands right from our initial walk through. Ben was very knowledgeable of the neighborhood and the entire area. He walked us through every step of the process and made sure we were 100% comfortable with the decisions that needed to be made from the first time we saw the home all the way through closing. Ben made himself available every time we reached out, even after hours, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Being new to the home buying process, we could not have asked for a better, smoother experience. We would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a new home. We will be using him again in the future.

Tiffany is incredible, her attention to detail, follow-up and she treats you like family! She showed us so many homes and really took to time to understand our family's needs. I would highly recommend Tiff, she has supported several friends and family for their real estate needs

Tiffany is AWESOME! I had a small older condo in south Charlotte and figured this would be too small for her to deal with. She told me she would be glad to help and quickly had it listed and staged. The prior record selling price for my complex was $110k. Tiffany's research indicated there was very little inventory at this price point and suggested we list it at $118k. We quickly had numerous offers including one at $130k! We took it anticipating it would get knocked down on the appraisal. Tiffany and her team pulled numerous comps from other condos in a 1.5 mile radius - and we got the $130 appraisal! I was blown away. Amazing job - THANKS TIFFANY!!!

Tiffany has been a SAINT. We are brand new to Charlotte, and first time home buyers, and needed a lot of help and guidance. We have been so blessed to have Tiffany as our real estate agent. She's been patient with us, kind to us, and most importantly helpful to us. Being first time buyers, we didn't know what we wanted or what to look for. It was obvious from the beginning she had our interests at heart. After MANY houses (thanks for the patience Tiff) we finally found one that was more than we could have asked for. She is an amazing agent, and person. Thanks for everything!

We decided to move our family from out of state to the Charlotte area and needed an Agent to represent us. I decided to contact Tiff after doing some research on Zillow. Tiff is licensed in both NC&SC and closes a high volume of transactions in the neighborhoods we were considering. She also had stellar ratings/reviews on Zillow. Tiff is a true professional. She is an expert on the Charlotte real estate market and was able to explain the nuances of buying in NC vs SC. The process of purchasing a home can be stressful and daunting, but Tiff made sure there were no hiccups in the process. She and her team stayed on top of all the details. Tiff returned my initial call to her within 10 minutes and continued this type of responsiveness through out the process. Once we settled on the house we wanted she helped us structure an offer to ensure we would get our dream home. This was super important since there was another offer on the house. Her service to us did not stop after we purchased our home. We continue to rely on her as a resource for local recommendations as we were getting settled. As stressful as purchasing a home can be, we were able to have fun and share a lot of laughs together. My highest recommendation is that Tiff White will be my Agent for any future real estate transactions we do in Charlotte. Do yourself a favor and let Tiff represent you. She is simply the best.

I had been renting a single family home for the last number of years. I was planning for a new move. I initially expected to continuing renting for a while longer. But, after following the low interest rates, I knew it was in my best interest to become a home owner once again. I could not have been any more pleased with my experience in working with Tiffany on my pursuit of either a new single family home or a condo/townhouse. She was so accommodating with being available to show my homes. She knows the market so well that, "timing" was key. She listened to what I was looking for in a home and we were able to quickly narrow the search. Once I made my decision on the home I wanted to purchase, it was a "multiple offer" situation. I wasn't real optimistic that my offer, would be the one accepted!! This is where Tiff's experience shines. She knew what it would take to increase my chances of being the winning bid. Mission accomplished! After my offer was accepted, every part of my buying experience was positive. Tiff has a fantastic team that keeps the process moving. From the lender to her assistant, inspector, etc. Going forward, I already know that I will want to use Tiff as my listing agent when I ready to sell in the future and ready to buy again.

I retained Tiffany to assist me in selling my condo in Charlotte. Going into the sales process, I knew the condo required a bit of updating before placing it on the market. After a walk thru of my condo, Tiffany gave me recommendations of the work I should definitely complete before listing, as well as work, should my budget allow, would add value if I did complete. In the end, Tiffany had a great sense of the market. Her and her team managed the entire process seamlessly and I was extremely pleased with the outcome. I would highly recommend Tiffany to anyone looking for a real estate agent in the Charlotte area.

Tiffany was amazing to work with and my wife and I highly recommend her! One of our biggest challenges (so we thought) was the fact we were moving before we had even lived in our house a year. Tiffany found great comps in the area and we were actually able to sell the house and not lose any money which is rare in that amount of time. She was also super responsive anytime we needed her. I highly recommend her and if I ever look to buy or sell real estate in the Charlotte area again she will be my first call.

Tiff was amazing throughout our entire homebuying process. As first-time buyers, we had MANY questions. Her responses were always prompt, honest, and helpful. Tiff showed us house after house until we found the right fit! I would not want anyone else but her to negotiate - she's the best! So thankful for Tiff and her expertise!

Tiff was great throughout the whole process. We were first time home buyers and needed a lot of hand-holding. She had no qualms checking out crawl spaces and attics (even with heels on!). Tiff was an expert in each aspect that goes into a home - I love that she knew if water heaters, hvacs, etc were quality brands and if they still had life left in them. I would recommend her again and again.

Tiffany helped us find our dream home during the pandemic with low market inventory and several local restrictions in place. She was very patient and really understood what we were looking for. She and her team made the process of negotiating and buying our new house much less stressful. Guiding us to get our previous home ready for listing, staging it and selling it in matter of days is where Tiffany was exceptional!! We have been very happy with our home buying/selling experience thanks to Tiff!!

Tiffany is amazing at what she does and helped us sell our home last year. As a first time seller it was very important to find someone personable, professional, and who could guide us through the process. Well, with Tiffany we received more than we could have hoped for. She very carefully executed a plan that sold our home in less than a week, at asking value (the best in the neighborhood), and helped us negotiate other aspects. She is very reliable and knowledgeable, both great qualities needed in a realtor. She also has a way of putting the most perfect and warm touch to everything, so you feel as you really have someone on your team throughout the process. We have absolutely no regrets working with her and are beyond grateful to have crossed paths. A year later she was willing and able to help us find an out of state realtor with a similar approach to the real estate market. We absolutely recommend her to everyone!

Vicki was very knowledgeable about the area. She has great communication skills and kept us informed throughout the entire process from finding a home, making an offer, negotiating and closing. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to list or purchase a home.
