ZillowVERIFIEDSean is a wonderful realtor. He is very knowledgeable about the housing market and he was able to help me to make informed decisions knowing what bids to accept and how to negotiate for a better price. Thanks to Seans suggestions that helped make my property look as good as it could I was able to sell it in record time. I highly recommend Sean if you are in need of a realtor!

ZillowVERIFIED Sean is the most professional realtor I have ever dealt with. He dotted every aEURoeIaEUR? and crossed every aEURoetaEUR?. He looked after us like he was spending his own money. He is passionate about what he does, and does his homework. We felt prepared to make an offer because of the comps he gave us, and felt confident we were competitive with our offer. We couldnt be happier

ZillowVERIFIED Sean McGovern is exactly the kind of realtor you hope to find, he's straightforward, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I was nervous because we were selling from out of state and had to rely on him completely, but he absolutely came through for us. He's no-nonsense in the best way. He's direct, honest, and focused on what really matters. His knowledge of the process and the local market gave us peace of mind, and he consistently looked out for our best interests. Communication was solid throughout, and we always felt like we were in good hands. lf you're looking for someone reliable who gets things done without any runaround, Sean is the realtor you want in your corner.

ZillowVERIFIED Sean was very knowledgeable about our whole process of buying and selling our homes. He kept us informed as we were looking to buy a home and waiting for the house we wanted to be available. He also helped connect us to many great sources -inspectors, roofers, and contractors- for the variety of needs we had in buying our new house and selling our own. He even considered the type of financing we wanted to pursue and connected us to a loan officer who was able to get us the financing option we were looking for. Throughout the entire process of buying and selling, he was able to guide us in decisions and resources which made the process much easier for us.

ZillowVERIFIED We had a fantastic experience working with Sean McGovern to sell our home. From the very beginning, he was professional, attentive, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to walk through our home with us before listing, offering thoughtful guidance on how to best prepare the property for a successful sale. What really stood out was how well he listened to our priorities and concerns. He was always available to answer questions, provided clear communication every step of the way, and we truly felt like he was representing our best interests as sellers. Thanks to his preparation and strategy, we received a strong offer within just 48 hours of putting our home on the market. His experience and negotiation skills played a key role in navigating the closing process smoothly and successfully. Were so grateful for his dedication and expertise, and we highly recommend Sean McGovern to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence.

ZillowVERIFIED I can not say enough about Sean! I would give him more stars if I could. Sean is extremely knowledgeable & walked me through everything as a first time homebuyer. His personality added to the process and made the search for a home enjoyable. I will be recommending him to all my friends.

ZillowVERIFIED This guy is an absolute professional, he is very thorough, but worked the whole process like a well oiled machine. After working with him, it is very obvious that he has many many years of experience in his profession. He made my experience in selling my house completely seamless, from start to finish. I can say with 100% certainty that I would never go to anyone else if I was to ever buy or sell a house ever again.

Review for Member: Sean McGovern
ZillowVERIFIED Our jobs require us to move periodically to different areas where our company has projects. We and our co-workers rely on each other to refer great realtors to make finding homes an easier experience. Sean was referred to us this way, and we have referred him to other co-workers. We were moving 1500 miles, and Sean did a lot of legwork for us to help make our house hunting trip worth while. He has a background in home inspections and wasn't afraid to get a little dirty looking into crawlspaces with me. Sean not only was great in helping us find our home in Kentucky in the middle of COVID, but checked in on us occasionally to see how we were doing and was quick to respond to questions of any kind even a couple of years after the purchase. We've been so happy with everything he's done that we asked him to sell our home for us when it became time to move again. He gave great advice, did a great work up, and it sold in a week. We recommend him highly.

ZillowVERIFIED As first time homebuyers my husband and I were two very frustrated and defeated seekers! The market was a little stifled to say the least. After not having much success or responsiveness from our first realtor, although we didn?t like much doing it we had to move on. Enter?.Sean!! From day one he explained and educated us as any first time homebuyer deserves. We felt supported, heard and confident we had someone that would seek and find! He communicated with us every step of the way, even answering calls/texts on weekends and late weeknights (we tried not to do that much though ;) We found a house at the end of May and handed the keys the next month! Sean is honest, hardworking and truly wants what is best for his client. He is also pretty funny and very easy to work with! Thanks again Remaxx and Sean!

ZillowVERIFIED Sean is truly the best out there. He made sure that we were informed and understood the pros and cons every step of the way. He helped us to sell our home and was knowledgeable of the local market. He was always available for any questions we had and often times he would reach out to us to make sure things were going the way we expected. He never made us feel pressured. Sean is an agent that you can trust to have your best interest in mind every step of the way.

Review for Member: Sean McGovern
ZillowVERIFIED I have had the pleasure to deal with Sean McGovern first as a buyer and more recently as a seller. It is hard to convey how good he is at each and how nice he is to deal with, but Ill give it a go. In 2017, my family was moving to Lexington for a job and more or less randomly picked him an agent (based solely on reviews, I think). Being first-time home buyers, my wife and I were a handful. He patiently and gracefully guided us through the search as we passed on house after house, each more disastrous than the prior. Then the right one hit the market. This is the one. Get it for me! I told him. And he did. During the entire process, he was exactly the consummate advocate that you would want representing you as an agent and was so easy going and personable that it was hard to notice all the complexities that he was managing behind the scenes. He seemed impossibly knowledgeable about all things involved in and adjacent to real estate, from the loan process to appraisals, from repairs to home warranties. He made the extremely complicated process extremely easy. My job had a predefined five-year expiration date so when it came time to sell, there was never any question as to whom my agent would be... assuming hed be willing to put up with us again, this time as first-time sellers. Fortunately he was. We were just as difficult as before and he was even more amazing than before. He had a clear marketing strategy from the onset. He did a walkthrough with us and coached us as to where to focus our energy to make the home most marketable to buyers and satisfactory to inspectors. Then he took stunning, professional pictures and video. When it launched, there was outstanding interest and it sold within the first week. Due to buyer-side factors, the deal fell through. He listed again, it sold quickly again... and it again fell through due to buyer-side issues. He listed again, it sold quickly again, and this time, all went smoothly to closure. He was extremely optimistic throughout. Ultimately, Sean has helped me buy a house in a sellers market and sell the same house three times in a buyers market, each time selling within the first week. He is as good as they come and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIED Sean is an amazing agent who is knowledgeable and well informed on all aspects of buying a home in the current market. He is easy to get in touch with and we get along great. I trust Sean to provide me with dependable guidance without any pressure to move on a property without considering the pros and cons. After working with Sean over eight years and three property purchases, I wouldn?t think of using another agent. He is the best!

ZillowVERIFIED We are first time homebuyers and Sean made the process so much easier for us! He answered any question we could come up with, he took his time and talked us through each and every process and explained things in terms that anyone could understand. He walked us through each house showing explaining things to us that we should look for, things we didn?t even know about. On the day we closed Sean went out of his way to make sure everything on a repair request was taken care of he went as far as the climb into the attic, crawl spaces and even on the roof! We couldn?t thank Sean enough for the experience of buying our first home! We would highly recommend Sean to anyone needing a realtor!!

ZillowVERIFIED Sean was recommended to us by a friend and colleague when we were moving into the area from out of state. Seans deep knowledge of the area, the market, and the business in general allowed us to bypass a lot of issues we would have had on our own or with a lesser realtor. Additionally, Seans hard work hasnt stopped after the sale he has continued to check on us and help us get settled in a variety of ways. We will use him again and recommend him at every opportunity.

ZillowVERIFIED Sean provided an outstanding level of service, going far above the job description on many occasions. I felt he acted not only as a realtor, but also as an adviser and fiduciary, placing our needs and interests above everything else. He was at all times professional, courteous, and of good humor. I am sure there are many good professionals in the area, but my first call will be to Sean the next time we need real estate advice or support.

Review for Member: Sean McGovern
ZillowVERIFIED Sean is the consummate realtor; we could not have been more pleased with the service he provided. We have worked with him for 5 separate transactions- both sales and purchases. When we moved over a hundred miles away to Louisville, we pleaded for him to represent us there, which he did. He is extremely diligent and approaches pursuing your interests as though they are his own. We had previous experiences with realtors who just showed up and only seemed to care about making a buck for themselves as quickly as possible - not Sean. He spotted issues, made suggestions, called experts for quotes or options on every concern. I have been a business owner in a customer service oriented business for a long time and have simply been overwhelmed with the outstanding level of service that he has provided. I eagerly recommend him every chance I get and will continue to do so. I would have serious reservations about working with anyone else. You will not be disappointed!

ZillowVERIFIED Sean was terrific to work with. We were new to the area but, having done our research online, we were pretty confident about the homes we wanted to see. Boy were we wrong! Sean patiently guided us through the homes we requested, but it was quickly obvious that he better understood our needs. He found exactly what we needed and guided us through some tricky negotiation. He pursued unexpected strategies and got us a great deal. We couldnt have been happier with his efforts.
