I contacted HomeLight for agent recommendations since we had only purchased a house one time more than 30 years ago and have never sold one before...We sold quickly and for a higher price than I expected.

As first time buyers and new to the state, we needed to find a good agent and couldn’t rely on our own networks. We found HomeLight and they provided an excellent experience throughout the process.

I would recommend HomeLight to anyone needing to find a realtor as they allowed me to see many different realtors and what they offered. Without Homelight I don't know if I would have found a great realtor group as easily.
