I had a firm fair offer within 3 days of being on the market... I would highly recommend HomeLight to anyone looking to get real estate agent referrals to sell their house. They did GREAT for me.

HomeLight matched me with three top-selling agents in my area. It was such a relief to not have to go hunting for a real estate agent. My agent sold my house in three days for over the asking price! I would highly recommend HomeLight to everyone.

At first we had no idea where to start looking for a Realtor ... but the HomeLight website made this process so much easier for us. And the result is we found our beautiful forever home. Thanks for everything HomeLight!
