We were very happy with the Realtor that HomeLight recommended. We are new to the area so it was nice to have someone experienced and full of tips about the different towns.

...We found HomeLight, searched for agents with experience, and connected with our agent in one day. She helped us snag a property in a competitive part of town, largely due to her relationships in the area.

We were very pleased with HomeLight's easy application for finding us the perfect Realtor match. I joked with my friends and family and said I went to Match.com to find the best Realtors. We would highly recommend them.
