FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
The home-buying journey can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time. One crucial piece of advice I give all my buyers is to prioritize getting pre-approved with a lender as soon as possible. This step not only helps in setting a clear budget and gives us a solid understanding of what's affordable to you, it sets realistic expectations for us to navigate the housing market. It also allows us to be ready to make an offer, and do so quickly, which can give us an edge to secure your dream home in a competitive market.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
It only takes 15 seconds for your home to make an impression on a Buyer. Therefore, meticulously preparing it before we hit the market is paramount. Decluttering and arranging your furnishings (or sometimes employing staging) can go a long way to showcase your home in its best light. Also, I invest in a pre-listing home inspection for all my Sellers to identify any potential issues that we can address before going on the market. Moreover, I also own a construction company that we can utilize to accomplish any repairs efficiently and explore opportunities to add value to your property. All of this instills confidence to prospective buyers that your home is a great product that can demand top dollar. Once your home is in tip-top shape, I employ an amazing professional photographer to capture digital photos, drone footage, walkthrough videos, and a Matterport 3D home tour to highlight your homes condition and appeal to maximize its potential for a successful sale in today's competitive real estate landscape.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
Throughout my career as a real estate agent, I've had the privilege of serving an extensive spectrum of clients, embracing diverse needs and aspirations in the real estate realm. From guiding eager first-time home buyers through the intricacies of their initial purchase, to assisting seasoned investors and flippers in identifying lucrative opportunities, my experience spans a wide array of clientele. Whether navigating the nuances of selling a cherished home for the first time, guiding clients through the intricacies of acquiring and selling raw land parcels, assisting our service members relocate, or orchestrating transactions involving lavish million-dollar plus estates, I've fostered relationships and negotiated deals across the spectrum of residential real estate, always with my dedication to my motto of “Putting Client Needs First”. Therefore, no matter what type of buyer or seller you are, I have the skills and experience to help you achieve your goals.

Jeff and his excellent team have been amazing to work with in my house-buying journey. The house-hunting experience was great, but where they really shined was making the whole escrow process as easy and as simple as possible. They were always ready for the next steps and kept me in the loop every step of the way. Big thanks to Jeff, Chris, Matt and all the other experts who they recommended who helped inspect the property.

Selling my condo with Jeff Brumfield Real Estate was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. Both Jeff and Chris were prepared with a clear marketing strategy, an understanding of the local market, and expert advice. They handled everything with professionalism and care aEUR" from staging recommendations to high-quality photos and hosting open houses. Jeff and Chris are reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful; I am grateful for their hard work and cannot recommend them enough for securing an excellent price on the sale of my condo!

Jeff Brumfield just sold our rental Condo. He was able to negotiate above asking price and make the whole transaction very easy and smooth for us. Jeff's vast experience and background in real estate, finance, construction and home building have been extremely valuable for us. Jeff is responsive, very kind and always looks out for our best interest. Previously, Jeff and his assistant Chris Trementozzi had also bought our new house and sold our old house quickly, in a challenging market. Jeff was able to get a loan for us and help with construction work. I can highly recommend Jeff Brumfield Real Estate for buying or selling real estate, needing a loan or construction work.

Jeff represented us buying and selling our home 8 years ago. He knows his clients so well that for the property we were selling, he was able to find connect our buyer right away. The process was so amazing that when we were ready to move this time around, we let Jeff know right away and he already had some clients in mind when we were ready to go to market. We were able to avoid needing to do the open house game or anything. I wish he could have represented us as buyers but we moved out of state, even then, Jeff was able to refer us to a wonderful agent in our new town. If youre buying or selling a home, you definitely want Jeff leading your team!

Jeff Brumfield was our realtor for the purchase of a large property with a house and ADU. This was a big move for us coming from a tract home. Jeff's additional background and experience in finance and construction help us tremendously. He was able to secure us the loans needed and help with any needed repair and construction. Jeff has all the resources needed. Without Jeff's help, experience and knowledge we would not have been able to purchase this property. It seemed too overwhelming. There is no comparison to any realtor we used before. Jeff gave us much needed comfort throughout the whole process. He is extremely committed to his clients and tremendously kind. He kept us updated and we could reach him any time. Jeff was always looking out for our best interest. We are very thankful to Jeff and so happy with our new place.
