Ive been investing in real estate for seven years now. Since then Ive been with six realtors, and I can say that Amanda is by far my best realtor in the state of Florida. Not all realtors are the same. My general rule is that a good sales realtor is not necessarily your best choice as a buying realtor. Amanda is an exception to that rule. While she has not represented my to purchase a property, but I can determine from our professional relationship that she would represent my interests by vigorously sifting through the market to find the right property for me, and she would follow through all the way to the close. Some realtors are slick, make promises that they cant deliver, claim that their clientele is high end, and then over charge accordingly. Amandas commission rates were about as good as would find anywhere. Her devoted attention is superb. She never once failed to returned my call before the days end. What really impressed me the most was when she showed me a spreadsheet of my neighborhood with multiple comps to include the average price per square foot, with each home adjusted for its particular condition and upgrades. This was a sign of professionalism that I had not before experienced with any realtor. Look no further. Youll find no better realtor in Jacksonville than Amanda Searle.

Amanda is a great person, realtor and resource! She is very responsive. We were lucky enough to meet her in February. Being new to the area, she took the time to show us around, showed us a variety of homes and took the time to get to know us and our wishes. Once we found our new home, she was available for follow-up questions, did a virtual walk-through for us, provided guidance and all with a friendly smile.

5 years ago, Amanda Searle helped my wife and I buy our first home. Her knowledge and professionalism is unmatched. This year we used Amanda again. We listed our home with Amanda and within the first week we had competing offers. We were then able to turn around and buy our dream home. I will never use another realtor in Jacksonville, FL to buy and sell real estate.

Amanda knows our neighborhood and provided us with appropriate comps so that we could develop the right asking price. She helped us and the buyer through the process and assisted us in getting to closing on our timetable. We really appreciate all her help in selling our house.

Amanda worked with me for four years looking at houses. Finally, as my wife and I prepared for a second baby, we found one that was in our price range. Major kudos to her for her persistence and for working so closely with us.

Amanda has been our real estate professional of choice for years. She always listens to the needs of both the buyer and the seller and in our case, has always made sure the home was priced to meet our needs. Our house sold quickly as we wanted and at a fair and reasonable price. She will be selling more for us soon.

Amanda is helping us to find the perfect home and we are about to close on a property that we would never have found if not for her expertise and connections. Amanda is extremely knowledgeable about Jacksonville and specifically the Springfield, Avondale and Riverside areas of town. She knows everyone and has a great reputation. She is always available to respond to emails, calls, texts and encouraged us when we thought we would never find the right place. I highly recommend Amanda!
