ZillowVERIFIEDBenis is absolutely amazing. I am a first time homebuyer and this process was definitely more complicated than average. He was able to explain things to me in a way that were not condescending and was very informative. I did not feel like I was being taken advantage of at any point in time. Hes very kind and friendly and personable and had some great resources for me as well as a wonderful network of people to work with. I highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIEDIn todays market it is very hard to choose an agent that is experienced and knowledgeable and that could make for a real bad experience but Benis is very professional and will watch out for your best interest. Benis is by far the best Ive had the pleasure of working with and he really works hard to earn the respect and trust of his clients.

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis is not only an agent but the homie. I was a first time home buyer with construction background and this man ALWAYS had great input and insights towards potential properties whether we viewed them or not. Benis was with me every step of the way from November to July and he always had my interests and needs in mind. Not only do I have an awesome agent, but a great friend too which is priceless. Any time I had questions or wanted to view a property everything was always done in a timely manner which was awesome for someone with a work schedule as crazy as mine. 6/5

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a person initiating a home search, I found Benis to be fabulous. He immediately struck me as a great listener, warm and friendly, and very service-oriented. I walked away from our conversation thinking that he had my best interests at heart, and would do his best to find a home that would work for my context. He shared with me many resources, provided contacts, and sound advice. Based on this limited interaction, and on my experience having worked with several real estate agents when buying homes in the past, Benis has my vote for a wonderful agent. I look forward to working with him more as we navigate the process of determining where, when, and if it makes sense of us to buy a home in Tacoma.

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis helped me sell an investment property. He came to our first meeting enthusiastic, well prepared and every interaction we had was insightful. He proposed an efficient sales process, arranged for the staging and photographs, gave me a good and thoughtful advice on finishing the house. The deal went excellently well, and all offers brought in was way above our asking price.

ZillowVERIFIEDExcellent service and professionalism by Benis. He was helpful from the beginning of the process to end. He is the type of person you need when looking to buy your first home. He was flexible with timings and readily available whenever I requested to visit any property during the weekends. He gave us his candid views which helped us in taking an informative choice. We would always recommend Benis.

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis was helpful in our entire moving process. He gave out great advice about a few small things we could do and was able to sell our house for a price higher than what another agent offered. I had thought selling the house would be the most stressful part of the process but Benis was incredible, and we are thrilled with the results. We recommend him!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I worked with Benis to purchase a property. He is highly knowledgeable about the real estate market, approachable, patient and generous with time in assisting clients. He responded to every question and explained every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. Buying a property in this market is challenging, but working with Benis made it as painless and honest as possible. We highly recommend him.

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis dawkins had reached out to me. He had sent listings of houses. I had told him about my needs for a house in a certain area and price range. Not once de he give me listings of my preferred area or price range. A week into searching I had texted him about how I won't be looking for a house at the moment, to give me couple weeks and I'll reach out to him, Got no responds. He kept sending listings and after a few weeks he texts me and said I have sent you more listings . And I replied by saying I had found a home, thank you . And replies " wow what a waste of time" who does that? That's very unprofessional for a realtor to say. Sounded like a child. And told me "i sounded sketchy anyways" he said "whatever goes around comes around" if I could post these text messages I would. Disrespectful. Don't deal with this guy. 16 years of experience, sure that's not how you treat a potential first time house buyer.

ZillowVERIFIEDI feel truly blessed to have found Benis Dawkins for my agent buying my home and now again selling it. With his negotiation skills his response time and his all around expertise each time I have had the best experience possible. I didn't have to stress about any of the process and he definitely knows how to deal with all parties involved in a very professional manner. If there was a 10 star I would definitely give it to him. Thanks so much Benis.

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis impressed me from our very first meeting. He was very professional and my questions and concerns were always answered. Any guidance I asked for was always provided. Even after relocating to another state, he made sure I was kept appraised of what was going on with inspections, reports, negotiations, etc. I asked him to confirm my contractor completed some repairs and he did so without hesitation. I'm very thankful my friend recommended him to me and if any of my friends ever move in or out of Washington, I will without question recommend Benis!

ZillowVERIFIEDFirst and foremost, let me just say this, my wife and I lived in a not-so-good neighborhood and we eventually realized we wanted a change... Benis helped us save $30,000 in buying our new home by negotiating the price and terms, and not only that but he is ALSO helping us sell our current home. When it comes to finding a real estate agent look no further: Benis is worth his weight in gold!!

Review for Member: Benis Dawkins
ZillowVERIFIEDBenis is the best man for the job if you are looking for a great home.. I had a strict budget and a rather large list of expectations from that amount... He pushed hard to find me exactly what I wanted.., he also got an offer in that was in my budget. There was a house that really wasn't what I wanted but I got impatient. Benis got the home inspected for me. When the inspector could not get the panel open to see under the house, Benis ran to his car and looked through his stuff n found a crowbar. He pulled the panel off and it exposed foundation issues... I was going to go for it anyway but Benis begged me not too n promised he would get me something more I wanted... Benis delivered me the perfect house and it fit all my criteria and it was less than my budget. I honestly could not be happier with my home and would recommend this guy with a solid voucher to anyone in the market! Sincerely, Lindsay Lewis

ZillowVERIFIEDI've never met Benis Dawkins in person but I can tell you that I expect he would be just as impressive as he is on the phone on any home you may be interested in. Benis follows through. Not only is he knowledgeable about homes for sale, he also had a wealth of knowledge about buying a home as a rental property for investment. Benis provided comps and located information for me regarding an area I was interested in purchasing. I would recommend him highly. Patricia Enos

ZillowVERIFIEDIf I could give Benis a 6-star rating for negotiation, I would. He negotiated one heck of a deal for us. In the end, the property appraised for $25,000 more than we paid. Not only that, Benis does a great job making you feel comfortable. He'll show you a clean, fancy home, and follow it up with a dirty fixer-upper if that's what you request (that was us :)). He was very patient with us and quick to respond to our questions and concerns. I highly recommend him.

We would strongly recommend him for any real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDVery rude and unprofessional. When I put in the request for assistance through Zillow, I specifically indicated to communicate thru email as for a time difference. I get a call from Mr. Dawkins at 6:21 in the morning waking up my household. I received numerous text from him. When I asked him to "Please only contact me via email" he responded with another long text message...I responded to him not to contact me again at all and I received a nasty reply "I've emailed you several times with zero response. I was trying to be proactive to help you in your search. Is that not the type of help you woul like from your Realtor especially when your Doing a RELO? (smiley face). And it was actually one txt not fifteen and i called you 1 the first time...I think your confused respectfully...I explained again to him and told him I would forward him all the texts I received...by which his response is "You sound very nasty ad super sensitive, No need to communicate with you any further you sound unreasonable anyway cheers"

ZillowVERIFIEDBenis reached out to me after my house had been on the market for several months. The house presented a difficult selling challenge due to the age and several code issues. However, Benis was diligent in his quest to find a buyer and helped overcome all the challenges that arose. He went above and beyond by personally pressure washing the garage and coordinating a contractor for repairs while I was out of the country. A job well done by Benis and his persistence.

When we got to the negotiations, he helped us get a great deal on a great house and assisted us through the entire process. He always answered our questions promptly and was great at communicating throughout the process. He is very knowledgeable about materials and an all around great guy. He truly cares for his clients. We will use Benis in the future for our real estate buying needs and recommend you should too.

ZillowVERIFIEDI was a first time homebuyer and really scared and nervous about the process Benis Dawkins walked me through each step of the way and never let me down! He always answered my calls whether it was via call or text message or email. He is extremely personable knowledgeable and ethical. He left no stone unturned. He negotiated a $30,000 discount off the purchase price which I'm sure other agents could not obtain! He is very communicative, with no pressure and was just superb overall! I had called a few other realtors before engaging with Benis Dawkins and his services and I was extremely letdown by the pushiness and the aggressiveness and lack of care other agents exuded. Since buying our house we have referred for different friends to Bennis and we will continue to be lifelong clients of his and friends! Skip the rest go with the Best Benis Dawkins!

He didn't hesitate to take the time to show us around the city and some homes within the area. He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable, patient, and knows his business.

ZillowVERIFIEDBennis Dawkins was an excellent real estate broker. He is extremely knowledgeable on all facets of real estate, not just buying and selling homes. If your in the market for selling or buying though, I would highly recommend Bennis. He took the time to show me numerous properties, and when the time came to put an offer on the table (which sadly also happened numerous times.) he was quick and didn't let another agent get the best of a first time home buyer. So I'll say it one more time if you need an agent to show you the ropes of buying and selling properties Bennis is your man.

After we purchased our first house, I recommended him to my friends and family. He helped my parents and multiple friends and thier families find properties. This year he has helped us search for another property. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Benis and would recommend him to anyone looking for real estate.
