Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDSteve was so helpful in this very hot and complex real estate market. We made multiple offers and lost homes but Steve kept delivering new fresh opportunities to find us a home. Once in agreement, he helped us with getting work done correct and on time since we had a fast closing date too. Throughout the process Steve delivered answers that we needed to be comfortable with the process. Steve even helped us remove and sell furniture left behind by previous owners.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are so thankful that we got the opportunity to work with Steve. We had been struggling with our prior Realtor to sell our property with the property on the market for 3 months and no offer. We connected with Steve and he advised what strategy would work in the current market and how to improvise the listing. Steve is very knowledgeable, very professional and is very prompt. We had 3 offers within 15 days of listing the property with Steve. I wish we had engaged Steve earlier and could have saved a lot of money. I highly recommend Steve for your real estate needs. Thank you Steve for all your help.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve was very helpful in making suggestions as to how to bring in more potential buyers. Originally he marketed our property as a standard show and sell but afterward convinced me to allow an open house program which brought in many more potential buyers. He and his team worked with me through text and email, allowing me less interruption of my busy day.

ZillowVERIFIEDOnce we switched over to Steve, our home sold quickly and for full price (although some was given back for repairs). We also used him to look for a new house and he was patient and got us into the homes we wanted without pressuring us to buy.

Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDSteve toured my house while I had it listed FSBO. He left his card and after an attractive offer fell through, I reached out to him for representation. His rate was more than fair and within a week I had an offer 17% above my initial asking price. Purchase was seamless - my first time doing a mailaway closing - and Steve was communicative and responsive through the whole process. Would absolutely recommend his services!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe have Known Steve for EVER, (20+ years) He has helped us with a couple of home Sales and a daughters condo. MUCH different this time, Mostly online. Took less than a day and a half, we had our asking price and went quickly from there. We closed on our Home and closed on our New home the same day. Electronically transferred funds. All in a matter of hours. Thanks Steve!!! GH

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve had our Condo staged an was on top of every client that came to view our place. We received feed back on what the client made on our condo and wether they were really interested or not. His team keep us informed on everything going on with the closing and took care of the closing due to us leaving town.

Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDAfter Steve gets a listing you do not see him or hear from him, but from his 'team'. They do not like it if you ask questions such as why old pictures are on Zillow and not the ones they ordered to be taken. The 'team' contact person was also not sure how Zillow counts views and saves, and felt they are refreshed more often than it appears they are. The 'team' did give feedback on each showing, but we felt we just had to read it and not ask anything because he had told us to 'just let them do their job' and stop asking questions. We felt pressured to take the first offer that came in and he discouraged us from making a counter. He said if we did not take it we would probably wait 3 more months for another offer, etc. We felt he and the offer had the buyer's interest more in mind than ours. At listing time he built in $5,000 of perks for the buyer if there was a full price offer. This was a full price offer, however the way it was written it gave the buyer another $5,000 out of our pocket and naturally both agents got full commission. The closing process was a disaster due to paper work on the buyer side. We have sold many homes before and never had to order our own mortgage payoff papers or grant two extensions or not get the buyer side closing statement until the day before closing. And we had to order the payoff with a one week cushion. In all, not the easiest process we have had with the 14 residences we have sold.

ZillowVERIFIEDAfter a bad experience with another realtor, I contacted Steve to list my house. Unlike the other realtor, Steve kept me regularly informed of how many people were looking at the house and viewing it on line. When it was under contract, I got a detailed timeline of closing actions like home inspection, loan approval , etc. I felt very comfortable that everything was being handled professionally. It gave me great peace of mind. I would happily recommend Steve to anyone looking to list a home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had our house listed with another agent for months prior to listing with Steve Pate. After the 1st week of listing with Steve and his team we had a couple offers and were able to sell our house. Steve thank you and your team for helping us get rid of our house so quick.

Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDMr. Pate assured me that he had the contacts and clients in the San Marco area to sell my property. He was unresponsive and at times rude when I asked questions. It took me until March 2018 to get a copy of the listing agreement that was signed in November 2017. After months of very little activity I pleaded with Mr Pate to release me from the contract. Mr. Pate refused to release me from his agreement unless I paid him 3% of the listing price, or $8,779 for the remaining 6 or 7 weeks left. This was a terrible experience. My advice to anyone doing business with this agent is to get every promise in writing and get your documents in hand at the time they are prepared. When Pate picked up his sign at the contracts end, he left my keys outside somewhere and they were found and removed by someone without my knowledge or permission before I was aware of his action. He did not phone me to let me know this was his plan but left me an email that I found after the fact. I was working out of town for the Memorial Day holiday when he picked up his dropbox and sign and left my key outside the door. The only thing that was not painful about this relationship was that it ended.

Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDThis is the 2nd time I had ask Steve to try and sell our home. The first time we were just asking too much and the market was down. This 2nd time he had us approach the sale price differently and in doing so we had a buyer who was looking for water property and made an offer after being on the market for 3 days. I do feel that the price was a little low but was happy that it sold so quickly which made up for the price difference. Steve is a fine Christian man who went the 2nd effort to write a letter to another realtor who was representing an owner of a home that we made an offer. He was trying to convince the owner to accept our offer and avoid another 6 months on the market. Not many realtors would have gone to this much trouble. I recommend Steve Pate to anyone who is wanting to sell quickly.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve did an excellent job selling my home! After eight months on the market with another agent, Steve was able to get an offer in the first few weeks. He was very professional and him and his team kept me informed and made the selling process a breeze. If I ever move back to Jax, I will be calling Steve!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe engaged Steve after a lack of action and results from our first realtor. Steve became engaged immediately marketing our home, contacting other realtors and providing advice from professionals who stage homes. We were rewarded with a sale to the first people who viewed or home.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve is a PROFESSIONAL who knows his business and gets the job done! We came to him after a disastrous time with a well known real estate company in the area. Steve knew what to do after that fiasco and rebuilt my trust in real estate agents again. He and his team are always available and always working to get the outcome that you want and in some cases need. The only regret that I have is that I did not have Steve Pate and his team when I tried to sell my house the first time!!!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve was wonderful to work with in the process of selling our home. I have a lot of experience in the industry and could often be quite aggressive in the way I wanted things handled in the transaction. He always talked me through some of the aggression to make sure our best interest were going to be best realized in the transaction. A true professional. His entire team was very responsive from start to finish.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve Pate did an outstanding job with the sale of my home, from day one thru the entire sale process. I especially like the way Steve uses Social Media to market the home and to provide market data about the area of town where the home was located. The weekly updates were also very easy too understand and they kept me informed as to the activity the listing generated. Finally, I would like to acknowledge the rest of Steve's Team. It was great to be informed about every visit and the closing coordinator did a fantastic job keeping me in the loop with the progress of the sale.

ZillowVERIFIEDThis was my third home transaction with Steve Pate...I knew he was the person to handle this transaction. Steve and I did some advance work together to make sure we were in sync on this important transaction, as TIME was a huge factor. The day the house/lot was listed we had several offers within 24 hours, the winner had the timing and terms that made it the winning offer and at the full listing price. The transaction closed on schedule, the communication between all parties, and paperwork went smoothly. I will certainly use Steve Pate again when the next move or transition presents itself. My sincere thanks for a job done professionally AND done well.

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve was wonderful in helping us get our house sold quickly. After hearing our situation with a job relocation and desire to move the family out all together, he came up with a strategy to get the done, and the house was under contract in 2 days. Great person who truly listened to our situation and helped get things done in a very quick manner.

Review for Member: Steve Pate
ZillowVERIFIEDBefore I signed the contract with Steve, I had another agent who was not able to sell my house for the first six months. Since we had already moved out of Florida and managing our house from a distance was a painful process, we wanted to get somebody who was really good at selling for the second time around. I interviewed a few agents, and I could tell that Steve was very knowledgeable and very good at marketing and negotiation. The rest was easy once I signed the contract with Steve. He took care of everything for me. I'd like to highlight three things Steve is very good at: (1) taking very good pictures, which helps generate online traffic to my house. I use to get one or two showing a week. After Steve's marking, I get 7-8 showings a week. (2) getting the repairs done in a timely fashion at very reasonable cost. (3) very good at negotiation and engaging the buyer in the process. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for a seller agent. By the way, I got an offer in the first week and got the house sold in the first month.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a wonderful experience with Steve, his wife Carol, and his closing staff. Dee Anne kept us informed all the way. Because of the great advice on what to do before our house went on the market , we had a very quick sale and for full price. Closing day could not have been smoother! Can honestly say this was our best experience with selling our house!

ZillowVERIFIEDSteve is very knowledgeable of the area and led us through the process. In our case we were out of town during closing and he prepared us prior to leaving town and solved all problems that developed during the final repairs and closing process. Steve is well connected in Jacksonville and has people ready to solve any issues that come up. If you want to sell your house Steve will work hard and get you a buyer fast. We had our first contract in less than a week and when they backed out Steve had our second and final buyer within 10 days.
