ZillowVERIFIEDHello all, thank you for allowing me to share my story. LaToya is an angel. I first reached out to her about a house at like 1am. She called me the next day willing to do everything on her end to help me and my babies get into the home. It was $4000/month. I wasn't able to get the home at the time, so I had to keep looking. But, I knew from the beginning that this home was for me. She told me from the beginning she was gonna make sure me and my babies got a home. I could not find anything I liked, the homes she was sending me just did not feel the same as the original home I had reached out to her about. Me and my babies ended up homeless and living with someone until I could find a home, but I just was not findinf anything. I would be on zillow everyday all hours of the night, I had some really tough days. LaToya made sure she checked on me, and sent me more houses. I almost gave up, and she randomly called me saying the owners were willing to work with me on the original house I wanted. This house is everything I wanted for me and my babies. They even lowered the rent. LaToya went above and beyond for me and my babies. Every single time I would pray about a home, LaToya would reach out to me. If that is not a sign, I don't know what is! This home was meant for me and my babies, and I felt it fron the beginning! Went from not being able to get the house to the hone coming back to me and now we are moving in. Furniture included and everything!! I am beyond grateful for LaToya because she did NOT give up, she kept her word from jump. I done cried, lost faith, been angry, and all sorts of emotions during this journey. LaToya remained calm, patient, kind, and encouraging the entire time. THANK YOU SO MUCH! My heart is so full of joy. IF YOU NEED ANYTHING HOME RELATED, LATOYA IS YOUR LADY TO GO TO!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya was very patient with lots of positive energy to get me excited. I was very stressed with moving across the country, but Latoya made our communication pleasant. I appreciate how she took her time to listen to my needs and wants in a home. Latoya was not overbearing or tired of swaying my decision on a house. Even when I felt a little shy walking into the homes, she encouraged me to look thoroughly and get a feel of the houses we saw. I appreciate how organized Latoya is when we sent her listings via email. Communication felt organized and timely. On the day we went out to look at homes, she had a great home to look at. She understood my taste and style and showed me nice properties. I never felt rushed or anything negative. I had a really great experience, and I plan to send friends and family her way.

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya is incredible! She is very professional and made the process for my wife and I go extremely smooth. I couldn't imagine going through the process of purchasing a home without her. She was always in our corner, guiding, education, and laughing when things got difficult. A tough market such as this one REQUIRES a tough real estate professional, and you won't go wrong on any front with Latoya.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is our third time working with Latoya. Latoya helped us buy our first home, Sell our first home, and now put a contract on a new home. Through the processes, Latoya has been a rockstar with all her knowledge and experience. She has been on it from A to Z. I'm a picky person too and my spouse said if she can find something that I like, she is the best. Thank you, Latoya for helping us through all the processes and dealing with me. You know you like family now and I will refer you as familyaEUR|

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were first time home buyers and Latoya and her lending agent Kathryn aEURoeKataEUR? Smith were both incredible to work with. They made the process very smooth and we closed in just 3 weeks. After being around them for just minutes you can tell they love what they do and they have great energy. I highly recommend them both for all your home buying needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhen I decided to purchase my primary home, I immediately thought of The Latoya Forbes Group to manage the process. If you are looking for a realtor who listens to understand your needs and goals, and one who will connect with you in every aspect of purchasing your home or investment property; The Forbes Group will not disappoint.I will never forget after being in our home for approximately one week; my son walked downstairs to my suite and said to me with heartfelt gratitude, "mom I can believe this our home" ... his profound sincerity of gratitude was music to my heart. Proud homeowner!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya was very patient with me. I had a limited idea of what I wanted in a house and she helped me figure that out along the way. After months of searching, late night searching, and rejected offers, she was as kind as the first day we met. And she still checks on our family! I've definitely acquired a lifelong friend.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time homebuyer, Latoya was perfect and very early on she proved to be someone I could trust. She answered every phone call and text with reassurances and she knew how to fight for me when I was getting dealt a bad hand. Latoya is an absolute gem and I highly recommend her. She is dedicated to all of her clients and ensures that you are happy throughout the home buying process.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs possessive as I am of MY realtor, Latoya, I cannot be selfish and keep her all to myself. My husband and I have purchased, sold, and purchased another home utilizing Latoya. This was not one transaction, but years later, which speaks to how memorable she is. Latoya's skills, knowledge, and personality is unparalleled. Because of her relentless efforts, you will find your dream home and assistance with financing. Need I say more! Contact Latoya.

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya isnt just a great realtor, shes also a great friend of mine. Mrs. Latoya rescued me when I was homeless with three children in a state where I didnt even have a family to count on. Going through her made my First Time Home buyer process so easy and stress free. She was very persistent on all she needed from me and was there whenever I saw a house I wanted to look at. Thank you so much for everything.

ZillowVERIFIEDI had a great experience with Latoya. I was very picky about location and limited with price. I would not settle for just anything however. Latoya was patient with me and never made me feel like I was being a hassle. Right when I was ready to throw my hands we found my house. It's close to my job, big enough just for me and in my price range. Praise God for Latoya's anointing in this area. She makes everyone's experience special.

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya is extremely responsive and detail oriented. Latoya's team got my house ready to be sold after my renter moved out without me traveling 6 hours back to the house. My house sold in one weekend for well over asking price. You can't find a better realtor!

Review for Member: Latoya Lyonel
ZillowVERIFIEDCross-postedThings started out badly at the outset and got incredibly worse. Had this agent respect enough to bother calling she'd know I found a lender and am under contract for a million dollar property, all I need is my buyer rep. Her abysmal lack of attention and care just cost her and her branch an incredibly easy $49,000, as it should be.100% of the work to 1) find a property, and 2) secure the financing was done by me. No one helped. I specifically said MULTIFAMILY, she sent 3 commercial stand alones in a place I specifically said (twice) I was NOT looking. It's the only report I ever got, even after asking AGAIN for multifamily properties. We began working together over 2 weeks ago, on May 15. She's devoted less than 15 minutes to me in that time. Even costing her own branch money isn't enough to make her care. She claims an inability to find PM lenders after numerous searches turned up none. I found 7 in 2 hours. One is funding my loan. Yes, all of this is absolutely and clearly documented. Some agents may think they can skip the work, sit at my closing table and collect an easy $49k for absolutely squat. I'll represent myself until Gabriel puckers up and blows his horn, before this behavior gets a penny on any deal of mine.I trust I've made my point..

ZillowVERIFIEDLet's just say that Latoya is BEYOND IMPRESSIVE. This comment field cannot begin to provide enough space for me to adequately describe my realtor, Latoya, and the superb service that she delivers along with the wittiest personality. Over 4 years ago, she was our realtor of choice and here we are in the process of buying another home, and Latoya is right here beside us once again. Because of her expertise and suggestions, our home sold in a matter of hours. If you are in search of someone that is knowledgeable, exceptionally responsive, encouraging, and who has an amazing personality and rapport with lenders and others, please look NO FURTHER. If we were to sell and buy 50 homes, we would use her each and every time - nothing to even consider.

ZillowVERIFIEDMrs. Lyonel started working with my husband and I 18 months ago to find our dream home. We knew it would take time because we had a particular type of home we were looking for. Mrs. Lyonel was patient, responsive, proactive and on point with regard to helping us wade through a ton of properties that fit our need. When we finally found our home, we had just a few hours to put in a bid. Further complicating matters is that we lived in another state. Mrs. Lyonel stopped everything she was doing, immediately called the agent and went to the property. She Face Timed us so that we could do the walkthrough virtually. There were multiple bids on the property and based on the great advice from Mrs. Lyonel, we won the bidding war. We found our perfect home and we have Mrs. Lyonel to thank for that! She's awesome.

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya is very knowledgeable and personable. I met her 2 years ago. Since our first conversation, she has kept in touch with me. She kept me informed of the homes available and the home buying process, but also reached out to me during the holidays and special occasions. She was very patient, and this year I finally bought my house! My home buying experience was difficult due to other factors, but Latoya was there for me every step of the way. She helped me get through it and I appreciated all of her efforts.I would recommend Latoya to anyone!!

Review for Member: Latoya Lyonel
ZillowVERIFIEDWe had issues with responses from another agent so we reached out to friends for suggestions. Latoya came with such stellar recommendations that we never looked at any other suggestion. And we never regretted that decision. Latoya treated our business not just with professionalism but as if it was her own. And even after the business was over, she has been just as responsive whenever we had any issues or questions.

Review for Member: Latoya Lyonel
ZillowVERIFIEDI randomly and without referral called an agent, Latoya Lyonel, with a very unique request... I not only needed to schedule a same day viewing for a property, but I was only available to view the property via video chat. I gave Latoya the name and phone number of the person who would be meeting her on my behalf. Without hesitation, Latoya scheduled the meeting and I completed a Skype walkthrough at 4p the same day.During the call, I asked Latoya to make an offer on the property just before dropping another bombshell... I was leaving the country in less than 4 days for a 3 week trip and would have limited access to email with no access to a phone. Again without hesitation, Latoya worked her magic and I was under contract before I boarded my flight. I contracted a 45 day close so we were forced to work in less than ideal circumstances for the next 3 weeks to meet deadlines. Fast forward to four days before my scheduled close date, my mortgage company failed to underwrite. I was about to walk away from the deal when Latoya found a new loan officer willing to work overtime so I could close in 10 days... I happily closed 10 days later, March 19, 2018. Thinking back to how this story began, without Latoya, the house purchase would not have been possible. I am not sure how many agents would have taken me serious or made time in an already full schedule to squeeze in a last minute showing. I'm also not sure how many agents would have known a loan officer willing to start and continue processing my loan application until 2a on the night of submission to ensure I could close on my dream house.I am thankful and I highly recommend Latoya Lyonel.

Most importantly Mrs. Lyonel was a wonderful advocate for us when viewing our homes and making sure that we got all of the promotions and deals along with the price that we wanted to pay. I will always recommend Mrs. Lyonel to prospective clients in the future.

ZillowVERIFIEDLatoya helped me buy and sell my home one year later. She was always helpful when I needed her and all of my requests were dealt with promptly even though it may have been inconvenient for her at times. For example I was out of town and needed someone to let the electrician in the house for repairs and she made the trip across the city during rush hour to do so.
