Tom was a pleasure to work with. I felt very confident in my new home purchase with Tom guiding me through the process. I have used to Tom to both buy and sell, both transactions were A+. Tom is a local guy that you can trust. Selling my previous house was a effortless and very rewarding. Buying my new house I was nervous, but looking back very happy with my investment. Tom will give you the long term relationship in a relator you are looking for.
It was an absolute delight to deal with Thomas Kelly . He made the whole real estate deal very comfortable and smooth . He made us feel that he genuinely cared about the well being of both parties and not just trying to make a commission . If we ever need a realtor in the near future we only plan on dealing with MR. Kelly .
I could not recommend Tom Kelly at Keller Williams enough. This was my first time selling a home and it was shockingly a breeze from beginning to end. When we first met with Tom he pointed out a few minor updates to increase the value and a few days later it was on the market and thriving. He kept in touch throughout every step of the process and answered all of my many questions along the way. We had many offers within hours and accepted one WELL over asking with only having the house on the market for a couple days. Tom's knowledge and experience made the entire process flawless and I look forward to working with him on my next home. Thanks again Tom!!
As a family listing a home for sale for the first time, we wanted to ensure that we selected the best person we could to be our sellers agent. We had already met with a few candidates, but on the strength of a glowing recommendation from a friend of ours, we asked Tom to take a look at our house and give us his perspective. We were immediately struck by his obvious familiarity with our market and his unprompted ability to identify the potential selling strengths of our house. The fact that he so quickly identified all of the elements that caused us to fall in love with the house in the first place, as well as the improvements we had made, made us certain he was the right person to represent the sale with sincerity and passion. At the outset Tom did a great job in level-setting our expectation for the probable sale price of our home, and gave us confidence that the go-to-market plan was appropriate and well considered. He maximized the visibility of our listing not only through the usual avenues, but also leveraged multiple social media channels to ensure that we had high visibility. The first couple of weeks did not disappoint; our views on several real estate websites were extraordinarily high, and we had well over a dozen showings inside of the first week. The photography of the home was very well done, and accentuated all of the elements that we felt a potential buyer would appreciate. During this process Tom kept us informed of the developments, while contacting us only when pertinent. After the inspection and appraisal, Tom leveraged his network to ensure that some small remaining items were fully addressed well before the closing date. Most importantly, Tom executed the transaction in line with the expectations we had established at the very beginning. My wife and I remain confident that our short time on market and the final sale price of the home represented the best value we could have expected to receive for the sale. I would have no reservation in strongly recommending Tom to any of our friends or family who are considering either buying or selling a home. For us he made the entire process painless, quick, and completely up to expectation. I have asked for a stack of his business cards just so I can personally hand them to anyone we know who is contemplating a real estate transaction. The outstanding job he did for us is the reason why I hope that this review will result in someone like yourself reaching out to Tom without hesitation; if our experience compels anyone to give him their business, it is the very least we can do to thank Tom for a job well done.
Tom is simply the best! His response time is second to none; he always made himself available for any question, no matter how small. When an issue arose in inspection that may have been a deal-breaker for some realtors, Tom didn't allow it to impact our sale. He took pride in our home as if it were his own--his enthusiasm and appreciation for our property meant a great deal to us. We firmly believe he's the reason for such a positive outcome, and we couldn't be happier with the result! One additional fact: anyone in the city of Lakewood, Ohio should hire no other realtor than Tom Kelly. Raised in this wonderful city, he has a heightened appreciation for these century-old homes, which will rise above any seeming issue that may arise. It bears repeating: he is simply the best realtor around!
I have bought and sold several homes in my lifetime and none of the agents I have used In the past came close to providing the level of personal service, knowledge and energy that was provided by Tom Kelly. I would give him 6 stars if I could!
Tom Kelly is a consummate real estate professional - extremely knowledgeable, tenacious, hardworking, creative, enjoyable to work with and helpful in the extreme. His sense of business ethics were evident in all our dealings with him. Made the biggest move of our life a pleasure!
Tom is the hardest working agent we've ever dealt with. My partner and I looked at dozens of properties with other agents, Tom was the first one that seemed to have our best interest in mind. He fought for us throughout the whole process and made sure we were taken care of. During the inspection Tom walked around the house with the inspector in the pouring rain like it was nothing and took pictures as we could not make it. He's not afraid to get his hands dirty and no task or request was too much or ever declined. When we thanked him for everything he made us feel like it was just part of the job. Appreciate your work Mr Kelly.
After interviewing multiple agents we went with Tom Kelly because of his energy and charisma. He made big promises and kept all of them, including professional pictures and an aggressive marketing campaign. During the process there were times we were difficult sellers in which Tom never lost his composure. He hustled to get the offer and managed to do it in under 14 days after 30+ showings. This wasnt our first rodeo, and compared to our last experience working with a realtor our deal with Tom was refreshing. Will use him if we ever plan to sell again.
I had a great experience with Tom Kelly. His approach was fresh and not canned. I would highly recommend Tom for your property. I removed my house from the market due to some market issues but in no way was reflective of Tom's performance.
We had the best experience with Tom !!! Following a very bad experience with another agent , when it came time to sell my home again, I was so concerned to pick the right fit in an agent. Well we made the perfect choice !! Tom gave us all the information that we needed to successfully sell our home in 4 days !! Previous agent had it on the market for 6 months. Tom Kelly is very skilled at his craft. There will never be a time that he doesn't have an answer to your questions. He is extremely accessible , he will always take your call and if he didn't answer phone , before you could leave a message he had already texted and said call you in 10 . I loved that !!! Selling a home can be stressful and when things arise you need an answer quickly. This was by far the best experience with a Realtor that we have ever had. Thank you Tom Kelly and your team!!! Bravo !!!
Tom Kelly helped us sell the house when others could not. He was able to find a buyer to whom the house's strengths appealed, whereas other agents were focused solely on getting us to alter the house to fit their preconceptions of what would sell (in other words, putting the onus on us). Tom also stayed in contact, kept us up to date, and answered questions promptly. We would recommend Tom to anyone selling in his area.
Was very honest about the prospects for selling our house, and aware of the problems with the house. Worked to prepare answers in advance for questions buyers were likely to ask.
What could have been a stressful process Tom Kelly turned into a seamless experience. He is very timely, professional and well versed in the market. His attentiveness and desire to find exactly what I expressed was refreshing and went above my expectations. I would definitely recommend working with Tom to future home buyers and sellers. He doesnt disappoint!
Tom Kelly was very helpful in my search for my first house. He answered all of the questions I had about the house search process immediately and In full detail. If I called and reached a voicemail message, he would always return the call back to answer my questions right away. Tom is very knowledgeable about real estate in the greater Cleveland area. I would recommend Tom to anyone who needs questions answered in their search for a new home. Very knowledgeable agent.
Tom did a great job selling our home. He communicated with us, never leaving us wondering. He was a go- getter, always putting our needs first. He had great advice making sure our home was priced right for selling. I would highly recommend Tom Kelly as your realtor.
Tom Kelly is a ROCK STAR! WHAT A HUGE BURDEN lifted off of me! I moved to Florida years ago and due to a downturn in the real estate market, had to try a Short Sale on my former Ohio home. After 4 years and trying with a previous realtor, Tom and his team finally got my house sold this month! (June 2017) And to think we got this offer of $109k approved when my last realtor could only get me a high of $60k last fall! I did not know if this Short Sale would EVER be done before the bank would foreclose on me, after several colossal failures where I was so close to a completed sale before. It seemed like the bank was just playing games, and hoping they could succeed at getting a judgment against me. THANK YOU for working so hard to bring this deal to a CLOSE! I know you had to meet with inspectors and tenants and contractors, you went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me! I am going to recommend you highly to anyone in Northern Ohio who needs a realtor! You may use this client testimonial for your website - so others in my shoes can feel hope rising as they learn about your firm and consider who to use to help them with their sale. Thank you again, Greg
After little buyer interest in the property I was selling under the initial listing agent, I interviewed over 25 real estate agents requiring listing & marketing proposals from the top five. I selected Thomas Kelly from the top five because he was very responsive, he was enthusiastic and positive every time we communicated, he understood and appreciated the high quality of construction and extensive upgrades and had the ability to convey that value to interested buyers, he understood the value of quality marketing and was relentless in finding ways to reach qualified buyers. He demonstrated excellent negotiation skills and was always a pleasure to work with. You won't find a better agent!
