Review for Member: Neil Bender
ZillowVERIFIEDWe had the privilege of having Neil as our realtor twice. First to help us buy our home, and then 5 years later to sell our home. Neil is hands down the best realtor weve ever worked with. His communication with us, knowledge of the business, and willingness to go the extra mile for us are just a few things that he brought to the table. Neil helped us to get our house sold very quickly and for the best price possible. He was also honest and transparent about the expectations of us to sell and how we would get through the process. The people he works with, such as office staff and escrow office, were also extremely professional. We highly recommend Neil to anyone who needs a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDI could not have asked for a better agent. Neil helped me get a great first home! He checked each house thoroughly, informed me of every pro and con, gave great advice, negotiated a fair price and was always available to answer any questions. I have and will continue to recommend to him to anyone looking for a top shelf real estate agent.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil was very knowledgeable in all areas of handling the sale of my home. His recommended sale price was right on target providing for two offers within the first couple days on the market and an easier experience throughout the rest of the transaction and through closing. I would highly recommend him to friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIEDAn expert in his field, Neil took great care of my family getting our house sold in a timely manner and at top market value. The house was professionally staged, and the photos taken were stellar. His attention to detail was second to none. Great guy to work with, always able to get a hold of him and have my questions answered.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil is truly the best of the best. Neil helped us buy our first house seven years ago, and when it came time to sell, we knew immediately we would be going back to him. Neil is professional, compassionate and tough. He is exactly what you want in a realtor. As stressful as selling a house can be, we knew Neil would take care of us, and he truly did. We couldn't have done it without him, and we are so grateful for our association with such a great professional !

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil was fantastic. As a first time buyer, I felt very comfortable working through the whole experience with him. He was always available when I needed him, and he was very knowledgeable about things to pay attention to on prospective homes we looked at. I would highly recommend Neil.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil sold 2 homes for us in 2017. Two very different properties with different marketing strategies and negotiation skills needed. Selling a home is very stressful....selling 2 homes is insane! Neil is calm, personable, kind and knowledgeable. He is straightforward and honest which is appreciated when you are making huge decisions. We would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the Gig Harbor area. He grew up here and knows the lay of the land and truly loves the community and his job! Thanks so much Neil for all your help and patience! Sincerely, The Dodges

He is a true and masterful advocate for his clients, and we have, and will continue to recommend him to friends and family. In Neil, you will find a persistent, patient and very talented realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I found Neil to be a very resourceful buyer's agent. He was extremely patient and understanding when showing homes to us over a long period of time, making sure that we found just the right house. We appreciated his thorough knowledge of waterfront properties. Everytime he showed us a property, he was quick to point out the flaws he noticed and not just the good points. This gave us confidence in making our analysis and decision about each property. And we were assured that Neil was truly representing our interests and not there just to make a quick sale. Thanks Neil so much for helping us walk through our very long house buying process successfully!

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil was outstanding to work with! We first purchased a new home with him and everything went so smoothly, that we had him list our old home. It sold in 2 days for asking price! Neil was always available to answer any questions along the way and always presented himself in the highest level of professionalism! Would totally recommend him to anyone!

ZillowVERIFIEDLove Neil! He was there every time we needed him and helped us through the trying time of having to sale and buy at the same time! We went through Neil to buy our house 4 years ago as well and we would recommend him to everyone!

ZillowVERIFIEDI can't say enough good things about working with Neil. My husband and I had set (we think) very high expectations for what we were looking for in a home. And Neil exceeded them, finding us our absolute dream home (in a crazy competitive market!). He was not only incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedules (when we were emailing and calling from a different time zone), but his knowledge went beyond your typical real estate professional -- we were looking at some "fixer-upper" properties, and he took the time to crawl under to examine the foundation and spoke on the subject of the home's structure as if he was a home inspector himself. He saved us a LOT of heartache (and money) by steering us away from some homes that could have been an easy sale for him (we were in love) but a future money pit for us. He clearly cared more about our long-term needs and our interests than making a quick commission. Prior to selecting Neil as our guy, we did our extreme due diligence and researched many "top" professionals in the area (as we were moving cross country and needed someone we could trust to handle things while we were a 6-hour flight away). He stood out as the top choice, and we're so beyond-happy that we were able to work with him. Nothing beyond glowing things to say about this guy...

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil was a great asset in helping us to sell our home in Olalla. He is very familiar with the current local market. He also went out of his way to help us sell the property quickly without any complications. Highly recommend.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil Bender greatly assisted us in touring homes making himself available at our convenience; he even showed us our first home on the Fourth of July! His deep knowledge of properties and homes was of fantastic assistance in reviewing opportunities for purchase. He is easy going and friendly, which made the process of buying our first home a pleasure rather than a task. We purchased a home in December, thanks to Neil, and we are very happy with our new acquisition : )

ZillowVERIFIEDAs first time home buyers, we had a lot to learn and Neil kept us informed and educated us every step of the way. With a challenging budget, we knew we had our work cut out for us, but Neil was confident and never let us lose hope; continually searching for that home that would fit our needs. Once we found our house, we ran into some difficulties with our lender and to this day, had it not been for Neil coaching us through these challenges, I don't think we would be in our home. I would recommend Neil Bender for any and all of your real estate needs and will most definitely be using him again.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil is a very knowledgeable guy to go to when it comes to buying a house. I realized after meeting with him for the first time, this guy knows his stuff real well. He came to meet my wife and I the first time well prepared. He knew a lot of all basic construction knowledge which makes him pretty unique compare to three other agents that I worked with and didn't like. As I mentioned, this man would come to you with his finished homework. By the time we found the right house after we looked and drove everywhere, my wife and I were really happy because Neil helped to get everything going smoothly with the loan and the seller. He also recommended me to Don, the most knowledgeable home inspector that came to help us pointing out a lot of things, let's say we got a home for a really good deal. There are a lot of people out there calling themselves realtors but when it comes to buying or selling a home Neil got us a nice home and I'm a hard person when buying a house. If we can afford another one we'd definitely go back to him again, I know I put him through a lot but he's a hard worker.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe felt Neil Bender was professional and attentive. We live and sold property in a city 40 miles away. Neil ran a complete data history on the house and presented it to us before any papers or contracts were signed. He advised us as to the procedures and recommendations and regulations throughout the entire time the house was listed. Neil answered all our calls in a friendly manner that made us feel comfortable and relieved. We were confident that Neil would address any problems on our behalf. The signs and flyers were updated in a timely way. We would highly recommend Neil to any client wanting to buy or sell a house. He is well organized is without a doubt a standout in this field.

ZillowVERIFIEDVery accessible and was able to work around my schedule, replying quickly to my emails and texts. I appreciated Neil's fair assessments of the properties helping me to note not only the issues I saw but ones he has seen with his experience. The looking process took around a month, visiting a couple houses more than once. I would use him again.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe started looking for a new home several years ago and Neil never pressured he just let us look at our own pace. After viewing many homes over a long span we eventually found our dream home. We both purchased our new home and sold our old home with Neil's expert advice. With his assistance we were able to obtain our new home under asking price and we sold our old home just over what we were asking. You can't do any better than that! Neil comes highly recommended.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil is the best real estate agent that I have ever worked with. He is very knowledgeable and always makes sure that you have all the facts about a listing. He is more concerned about his client's needs than just making a sale. I can't say enough about what a great experience it was working with him and I would highly recommend him to others!

Review for Member: Neil Bender
ZillowVERIFIEDNeil responded to our interest in a house listed for sale. He was able to promptly meet with us to show us the house and had plenty of information on hand about it. We did not end up making an offer on that first house viewed, but Neil made himself available for any house we requested to view. Most impressive was how quickly he could collect information about different properties, his knowledge regarding structural condition and building requirements, and his eye for detail in noting potential concerns. He was always available by phone or email and responded very quickly to questions and requests. He had terrific suggestions for negotiating the closing deal for the home we ultimately purchased, and he referred us to our lender. We LOVE our new house, and we're very thankful for Neil's professional assistance in the process of acquiring it.

ZillowVERIFIEDNeil was great! We looked for over a year, at tons of houses. He stuck with us all the way, listened to our needs, never got impatient or pushed. He's got a great personality, and will fight for you all the way. I wouldn't ever use anyone else!

ZillowVERIFIEDI would highly recommend Neil Bender as your real estate agent. He is extremely knowledgeable, personable and accurate in the information he offers his clients. Sharon Nelson and myself both felt very comfortable with the fact that if Neil didn't already know an answer to one of our questions, he would find the answer and provide it to us in a very timely manner. He was always respectful and courteous to us. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Neil Bender, as he very professional and thorough. Kathleen Gomsrud
