ZillowVERIFIEDExceptional realtor aEUR" made the whole process smooth! I had an exceptional experience working with Bill Ristov to find my home in Troy, MI. From start to finish, communication was outstanding! He was always quick to respond, kept me updated at every step, and made sure I never felt left in the dark during the process. His market knowledge was spot on aEUR" when he said a house was worth it, it truly was, and that kind of insight gave me real confidence in every decision I made. He also connected me with reliable lenders and had the right connections whenever changes needed to be made, which made the whole process so much smoother. His professionalism showed throughout the entire home search and buying process, his guidance was invaluable, and I couldnt have asked for a better experience. Id highly recommend Bill to anyone looking to buy a home in the Michigan area!

ZillowVERIFIED Bill was the best agent we could have possibly asked for. Throughout the entire process we felt that he always had our best interests in mind. He worked constantly to find us homes that met all of our criteria and was extremely accommodating to our difficult schedules when setting up home tours. He found us our perfect home in the exact neighborhood we were looking for and after a month of living here we couldnt be happier. He worked with us late into the night while we negotiated to put in an offer, and was incredibly responsive through the whole process. During the negotiations he worked tirelessly to get us the best deal possible and with his help we were able to get a better deal than we could have dreamed of. I cannot recommend Bill strongly enough.

ZillowVERIFIED Outstanding Communication, Honest Advice and Local Market Expertise. Bill was great to work with from start to finish. He was always available, very flexible, and somehow always found a time that worked with our busy schedules. One thing that stood out right away was how responsive he was. It didnt matter if it was a quick question, scheduling a showing, or asking for documents, everything was done within minutes. We never had to wait around or remind him. We looked at houses all over the Detroit metro area, from Ferndale and Royal Oak to Grosse Pointe, St. Clair Shores, and everywhere in between. He was knowledgeable about pretty much every area we visited and always gave us honest opinions. During showings he would point out the good and the bad, warned us about expensive issues or things that could become a problem later, and never tried to sell us on a house just to make a sale. Overall, he made the whole process much easier than we expected. He was easy to work with, honest, professional, and always looking out for our best interest. I would definitely recommend Bill to anyone looking to buy a home in the Detroit metro area.

ZillowVERIFIED We had an amazing experience working with Bill. We were out of the country during most of the home-buying process, which added an enormous amount of complication. We depended on him heavily throughout the entire process, and he never let us down. He went above and beyond every step of the way to make sure the entire process is smooth and stress-free. He arranged the home inspection and stayed there for the entire inspection, followed up on repairs, and even did another walkthrough of the house on our behalf before closing. We truly appreciated all his hard work, responsiveness, patience, and support. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home!

ZillowVERIFIED Bill is very professional and caring. I listed my home with Bill in Troy. Bill went out of his way to provide his help during the home preparation with service contractors. His real estate was evident in his sales contract. He was very easy to work with and went to the house on several occasions. I had left town, so Bill handled everything on his end without me having to come back into town. I will definitely recommend Bill to anyone in need of an honest professional.

ZillowVERIFIED Bill is an amazing realtor! His level of customer service is honestly through the roof. If we had questions, no matter what time of day it might be, he would have answers back to us promptly. He has a very positive attitude and is really easy to talk with. He took the time to guide us on what we needed to do to get our property listed for sale and once that was completed, he diligently got it on the market for sale. It was on the market for less that 2A 1/2 days and we closed within a few short weeks. He managed to work out a fantastic price for our property where all parties were happy with the final deal. Bottom line, if you're looking for somebody with superb knowledge in the realty domain, I highly recommend you get in touch with Bill. I'm more than positive you will be very satisfied with the results!!

Review for Member: Bill Ristov
ZillowVERIFIED We had a regrettable experience working with Mr. Bill. From our initial interaction, it became clear that he was more interested in making a quick sale than genuinely helping me find the right property. Finding a home is a significant undertaking, and I had hoped for a supportive and transparent partnership. Unfortunately, my experience with Bill fell short of my expectations. We will be looking elsewhere for real estate assistance in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED Bill was outstanding. He found us our house in Ortonville and helped negotiate with the seller. When we went to sell our home in Troy, he worked with the price we wanted and when we need to do some work and upgrades he had great people and contractors to get the job done! He put up with so much BS from the buyers by shielding it from us. Best experience ever with a realtor!!!!

Review for Member: Bill Ristov
ZillowVERIFIED Bill provided an invaluable service in helping us in our house hunting and purchasing adventure. We found him on Zillow initially to look at a house that piqued our interest. We met and talked with him every month or so for the first 9 months before honing in on the area and type of house we were interested in. Bill was very helpful, responsive, and encouraging without ever being pushy. Once we had narrowed in on the location and type of house we were looking for, we worked with him to further refine what we were looking for including insight on build year for basement style, and aspects of the house that would retain value.Once we started putting offers in, Bill's professionalism and knowledge of the area was a key resource in putting in a competitive and ultimately successful offer on the house we ended up purchasing. As we worked with banks to find the best loan for us he maintained is cool, calm and collected demeanor despite us pushing deadlines down to the wire to secure the best rate we could. Through inspection and preparing for closing he continued to be responsive and knowledgeable about what tasks needed to be done and when. As closing came, he scheduled the final viewing, closing dates and coordinated with the bank to ensure all the paperwork was in order. Our overall experience with Bill was great! He was a pleasure to work with. In a time where stories of pushy deal closing real estate agents are rampant, Bill provided strong evidence that some bad apples do not spoil a whole industry. We would definitely recommend him to friends and family that are looking to sell or buy a house in the Metro Detroit area.

ZillowVERIFIED I have just purchased a house in 2022 (January) and I worked with the agent Bill Ristov. I can easily say that he can be reached any time you need to make a schedule a house to see. He replies to your phone calls, text messages super fast too. He always brings printed documents for the house you want to see in order to give you some ideas about the pros/cons of the house. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a house to buy/sell he is the one

ZillowVERIFIED Contacted Bill as he is well known by our family both in selling and purchasing homes. We had already purchased a new home when we contacted Bill to list our home. He was able to meet the next day arriving at 1:30 pm to review our current home in Troy. He carefully reviewed each room and the outside and by 3:00 pm he thought he may have a young family that may be interested. He contacted the client and provided them with a facetime review of the property. They were interested and were able to view the property that day, Bill was able to negotiate a offer that was accepted by both parties. Good Job Bill thank you for all of the support and follow up.

His detailed analysis for every house to match our needs, really helped us throughout to reach to our decisions in a timely manner. We also could share our specific needs per 'vastu' (yes, vastu! :) ) with him and he made sure to check all those little details that we always looked into any house we walked into. His excellent communication skills and prompt responsiveness helped us to check every listing we asked for in a timely fashion.As a buyer, I highly recommend Bill to anyone who is looking for the right guidance during their search for right house.

ZillowVERIFIED Bill is the most helpful agent I have ever had to help me buy and sell property. My former agent stuck me in an inappropriate condo with too many repairs and too much cleanup for someone my age. He not only found a wonderful condo for me, but he is advising me with everything I need to do to make the wrong condo ten times better than what it was. He currently has it for sale so I can recoup most or all of my money, which will go back into my retirement funds. I would, and have, recommended Bill to others, including my family.

ZillowVERIFIED Bill is very knowledgeable and patient, especially for first time buyers like me. He answers all your questions, works with you through all ups and downs of the buying process. He is really with you at every stage of the buying process from showings to closing and even after closings. To quote some examples, a) my seller did not pay some utility bills for 2021and Bill is still helping me through the process. (Trustworthy!)b) I changed my mind to go with another home after having an accepted offer. Bill was patient, did not ask questions and continued to work with me just like before.c) I requested 2 showings for a home and Bill did not mind it.He knows how to take care of his customers and is an epitome of excellent customer service.He is very responsive calls, emails and text messages. He is always available for his customers. He thoroughly addresses every minor or major request you make.He also has several contacts that help new home buyers like me. And Bill establishes a great rapport / working relationship with all parties involved in the process (even from the seller side). This really makes the whole process smooth.BILL = BEST-IN-CLASS + WORLD CLASS CUSTOMER SERVICE + PATIENT

ZillowVERIFIED Oh my gosh, Bill Ristov is simply the best real estate agent out there! I was introduced to him through my brother/lender, and from the first showing, he knew exactly what I was looking for in a home. Bill is extremely knowledgeable about the market and was very patient and understanding with me since this was my first time buying a home. Bill was always available for viewing and gave his honest opinion and insight identifying the strengths and potential red flags in a house. Bills cheerful nature makes him easily approachable to clear any questions or concerns. The entire process was a breeze from start to finish and I couldnt be happier! He is wonderful to work with and I would recommend him to anyone.
