ZillowVERIFIEDI've told so many friends that we hit a gold mine when we chose Lance to find just the right home for us so we can be close to our daughter in Clearwater and son in Tampa. Lance really gets to know his clients. Before anything else we met for coffee so he could educate himself, not only about what type of property or which city we were interested in, not even just what our interests are, but who we are as people. He's responsive, generous with his time and extremely knowledgeable about construction as well as the real estate market.

ZillowVERIFIED Madalyn was excellent, patient and knowledgeable. She made me feel very at ease with all my questions and knew things to ask for me as a first time home buyer. I always felt I could reach out without imposing. When she was going through a personal issue, she made sure to leave me in great hands with her agency. They were very respectful, responsive. They made sure to answer any questions, no matter how inexperienced I was in the home buying process. Never felt like I was out of the loop or that I couldnt reach out to Madalyn, Lance or Mari who jumped in when Madalyn wasnt able to come due to my limited availability for inspections and walk through. They were all quite keen observers and knew what to ask. Felt like I was in very capable hands through the entire process.

ZillowVERIFIED Lance and his team did an outstanding job working with us to find a condo for our son who was getting his first job in Tampa. We were able to find a condo that had everything on his wish list!

ZillowVERIFIED Madalyn was fantastic working with me for over a year and finally finding the perfect condo as I had many boxes to check off. I moved into the new place and trusted her to get me the best deal on selling my house which is an older house and badly in need of updating and renovation. She took the challenge and we got what I believe was a good price for a difficult to sell property. She was always available and supportive, even meeting me at the house with her supervisor Lance Willard to deal with squatters that a neighbor had called her about. The Willard Home Team goes all out for their clients and I'm glad they were my team.

ZillowVERIFIED Lance Willard and his team were phenomenal in providing real estate services while we were away. He shared photos and videos of the property to help us make a decision sight unseen. Lance's dedication to his clients to provide the best services does not go unnoticed. We look forward to continuing the partnership with Lance and his team for future purchases!

ZillowVERIFIED Wonderful experience working with the Williard team. With Lances and Taylors help we found our current home and cant be happier. Lance/Taylor were more than flexible to our working hours and preferences of visit hours. With constant communication and a personable approach to our relationship, it made the stressful process a lot easier. Taylor was even able to sway us to visit a home she believed was good for our needs on a stressful day of house hunting. It turned out to be the one for us. We already plan on recommending their team to our interested friends, but wed strongly recommend to anyone even remotely interested in just learning about their options for a home.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Lance and the rest of the Willard Home Team was an incredibly positive experience. We used Lance as our realtor to help us sell our home as we prepared for a cross-state move. With all of the stress of moving and buying a new home, Lance made it as easy as possible. He answered any questions that we had and went above and beyond to find solutions to any issues that came up. The rest of the team helped out at open houses and behind the scenes, and they were wonderful as well. If you're looking for a realtor, I highly recommend working with the Willard Home Team. Thank you again!

ZillowVERIFIED Beyond happy with the service we received from Madalyn. Any time, any day super responsive. Can't begin to imagine a better experience. We were a challenge as we sold our house in South Florida and bought in Palm Harbor the same day!! Who pulls that off?? Madalyn, that's who. We met through business but I truly see becoming good friends. You won't find a realtor that will do a better job.

ZillowVERIFIED Madalyn was beyond helpful throughout the process of purchasing our first home. She was extremely flexible and easy to communicate with and answered any questions we had to the best of her knowledge, otherwise she would refer us to somebody who did know the answer. She helped us find resources, such as an electrician or inspector, and shared her expertise based on past experiences. We were referred to Madalyn by a family member and are so happy we made the decision to work with her! She is honest and respectful and we would use her again if we needed to!

ZillowVERIFIED Lance and his team were incredible once again! This time they helped me buy a home and close in about two weeks. Every detail was handled flawlessly. Buying a home in a different county than my current residence presented some challenges but The Willard Team and even their referred mortgage and insurance brokers worked fast and impeccably. Selling a condo now and I wouldnt dream of working with anyone else.

ZillowVERIFIED I spoke to Lance on a Wednesday and by that Friday we went live with fantastic pictures and video. The best part was we had an offer in a little over a week and closed one month after listing our property. Lance was in touch with us every step of the way and made the whole process a breeze! I can't recommend Lance and his team enough! You won't be sorry you hired him, I promise!

Review for Member: Lance Willard
ZillowVERIFIED I definitely highly recommend Lance Williard and associates of The Willard Team. Lance was an absolute pleasure to work with during our 6 month search. Lance is very meticulous in crafting attractive offers and he provided expert guidance to us based on current marketplace trends and data. He explained terms and real estate jargon in clear, plain English so we felt confident and understood what we were signing. Our only regret is that we shouldve listened and trusted him earlier on in the process -that was our fault. His knowledge of the economics within the housing industry demonstrates he is a motivated self-learner to ensure he gives his clients the best chance in todays competitive market. We found Lance to be on his game, never late, very responsive and business savvy. He is also very patient, respectful of your time, down to earth, and overall a kind person. He was very accessible to us via text, phone, and in person to answer any of our questions and concerns. His associates were also pleasant to work with. Madalyn and Danny showed us a couple of properties as well and they were equally professional, communicative and knowledgeable about the market. Home buying is a stressful and exciting time. Lance became our anchor during it all and we could tell he really wanted us to find our forever home. He was keenly perceptive and provided encouragement when he sensed we were getting frustrated. We cant recommend them enough. It was a blessing to have met Lance and his team and help us start a new chapter in our lives.

ZillowVERIFIED Overall amazing experience with Lance and his entire team.

He was always on the lookout for homes for us and was 100% available 7 days a weekaEUR| and made himself available to view homes with less than an hours notice! Ive already referred friends to Lance and have full confidence he will treat you with the same amount of professionalism he has treated us with!

ZillowVERIFIED I am a PA resident looking to relocate to Clearwater, particularly in the OTOTW community. While visiting in Fla, I found some listings that I would like to see so I called the agent on the first listing which happened to be Lance. He was amazing! I called him on a Friday at 11 am & he was able to rearrange his schedule to show me 3 Condos later that day. He knew everything about the Condos & was very informative on the HOA fees, W/D hook ups, age of the appliances, etc. He also now knew my wish list.. After I returned home to PA, Lance followed up with emails showing me many listings until he found me the perfect unit. I am beyond excited! He has kept me informed on the process, and is available 24/7 which is wonderful! I highly recommend Lance!

ZillowVERIFIED Dealing with Lance was the most horrible, dreadful and appalling experience of our lives. He was disrespectful with us from beginning to end. He is not only the most unprofessional and rude realtor that we have ever come across aEUR" he acted like the worst kind of bully. What should have been an exciting and happy time in our lives, was completely ruined and almost did not happen at all, because of him.Lance was both our agent and the Sellers agent in a transaction where my husband and I were Buyers.Unfortunately our first mortgage application was rejected on May 1st and we had until May 10 to close on the sale. This means we were still within the time frame per the contract to find financing. We also had cash to pay the full purchase price, we just preferred to find a mortgage rather than pay cash.Lance moved to kick us out of the deal immediately. He wasted no time on asking us about our plan B, to find out what options we still have and what solutions we are trying to find. He started his bully campaign. He told us about other buyers that were standing in line to buy. He emailed us a Cancel & Release agreement three times a day through DocuSign, completely ignoring the fact that we presented to him. Countless times we asked him to stop acting like this deal was over and we told him that we will buy and we will close by May 10. He ignored our numerous phone calls, but sent rude texts like aEURoethe deal is canceledaEUR? and aEURoeI'm not going to text back and forth about this. The contract is canceled.aEUR? The Cancel and Release agreements kept coming via email aEUR" he was perhaps hoping that we would give up and sign. The stress at this point was unbearable for us. After a week of not talking to us, he finally set up a phone call on May 6, during which he didnt listen, but kept stressing that we will never find the money and we will never get this house. He repeated many times that at 5pm on May 10 we are out of options and they will keep our deposit.Rather than continuing a shouting match over the phone, we decided to finalize the transaction without him. It was May 6 and it was the last time he talked to us.We called the Title Company ourselves and set a time for the closing. We reviewed and sent the documents to the Title Agent. We found out the wiring information and wired the full purchase price to the Title Company. We showed up for our closing and signed the documentation. Only at the closing there was no celebration, no champagne popping and no congratulations. It was the Title Agent and the two of us. Neither the Seller or Lance showed up, there was no exchange of keys, or any information on when and where the Seller will sign and when we will receive the keys to our new, fully paid home.Three days later, on May 13 we finally received our keys and went in the house, to find an incredible amount of trash both in the house and the garage.Today is 14 days later, May 24, and after many promises via text, Lance sent somebody to haul away the previous owners trash. The person came with a pick up truck and sweated for over an hour to try and squeeze all the trash on the truck. About half of it fit. He promised to come back for a second round to take the other half. Lance showed up just as he was getting ready. This was our first and only meeting and out of respect for a family member that was with him I said nothing other than hello. They said he would come back for a second round, drove away and never came back for the rest of the trash. It includes a ginormous fridge, a washer and a dryer, a TV, all large and heavy items that we dont want in our house and we shouldnt have to deal with. This was a breach of contract on May 10 and it is even more so today. And a perfect final exhibition of his selfishness, incompetence and lack of compassion.To this day we dont understand why he treated us the way he did. We didnt expect him to do us any favors. All we needed was for him to honor the contract. We were two people in a tight situation and he was rude, arrogant and acted like he was superior to us. I dont wish this experience on my worst enemy.UPDATE - Today on June 14 he still hasn't fulfilled his promise and contractual obligation to remove the trash from our house.

ZillowVERIFIED Lance and the Willard team are beyond amazing. Being first time sellers should have been a little crazy and extremely hard because we just lost our mother, but it wasnt. I could go into great detail about how easy and quick the whole process of selling our house went. (And the fact that we sold for over asking price!) But thats not what made me want to write this review. I'm writing this to tell everyone how ridiculously hard working, honest, and compassionate Lance was with us before, during and even after the sale...one of the kindest souls Ive ever had the privilege of meeting.

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I are so lucky we encountered Lance at a showing. Lance took a sincere interest in our situation and we knew immediately he was the realtor who could guide us through this process. He understood our needs and our apprehensions and with his expertise and knowledge provided the coordination with our lender, buyer, and the individual selling the home we purchased. When there were questions, communications were immediate and patient enabling us to move forward with confidence. Lance and his team realize the importance of the affect involved in the sale as well as the results. I highly encourage you call and talk with Lance before you sign with anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED Our experience working with Lance for the purchase of our property was absolutely wonderful! The first thing he did was just to simply meet for coffee so we could get to know each other and he could find out our interests. We were immediately comfortable with him and respected his professionalism as well as appreciated the sense of caring he projected. Well, he certainly lived up to our expectations! Lance was so very patient with our many questions and our uncertainty as to what we were looking for in a property. He patiently showed us a variety of properties and locations, but probably not very surprisingly, we ended up purchasing one of the first properties he showed us...I think he knew us better than we knew ourselves! We very much appreciated his professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness, and caring personality. We really enjoyed working with Lance and his team and very highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!BTW...we LOVE our new home, it was the perfect choice!

ZillowVERIFIED Lance is simply the best. He is the most knowledgeable realtor I have ever worked with. We have dealt with Lance on many transactions and he always goes beyond expectation. Lance was able to negotiate between renters, landlords and family members to make sure that every party involved experienced a win/win. We would not have closed on the house at all without Lance's ability to communicate in a way that all parties felt confident. Lance also was able to offer advice that saved us money as well as provided us with education regarding the market and its expectations. Thank you Lance for all that you have done and for all that you will continue to do...Jodie Stafford

ZillowVERIFIED We bought our first house with Lance and his team. He met with us and explained the process. He told us up front how it was, and what to expect. If you are looking for someone to fight hard for you, and tell you what you need to do to win your new house, Lance is the guy for you. The house buying process can be rough and nerve-wracking but his team put us at ease. They are very responsive and thorough. The best part about working with Lance was it felt like I had a friend helping me out instead of a stranger. If you get the opportunity I would capitalize on Lance and his team!

Not only did Lance answer every single one of my many questions but he also helped me understand things that I originally didnt know were important. Lance was also very easy to get ahold of whenever I had questions. Being a healthcare professional details are very important to me, that being said Lance was very detailed each step of the way with the processes involved. Both him and his wife Michele make a good team for anyone searching for a new home.

We are nearing retirement and first-time homebuyers...very odd, but Lance assured us he had our back and would negotiate the best deal for us and help us find our dream home. He knows the Clearwater (and beyond area) incredibly well. Very impressed with him and his team. When we were looking at a house and he had to go out of town on an emergency situation, he sent his associate who was ask friendly and easy to work with. We love Lance!
