Troy has extensive knowledge of the market in all surrounding areas. His attention to detail is excellent, and he brings up many aspects of buying or selling a home that most realtors do not. He always goes the extra mile for his clients no matter how busy he is. We have worked with Troy on the buy and sell side, and would never consider working with another agent. He is phenomenal.
I have used Troy for close to two years as I've searched for a property with very specific characteristics. He has done an excellent job keeping me informed of opportunities, assessing the general market, and working through the closing process. I would recommend Troy without hesitation.
From my first phone call with Troy in May 2021 through the purchase of our home in May 2022, he was nothing but the consummate professional. Prompt: he was on site before us for every meeting, often guiding us to the correct location or parking spot. Patient: as we were from out of state with some personal constraints to moving, Troy understood that it might take up to a few years for us to actually purchase something, and was willing to stick with us for the long haul. Responsive: he returned our texts or calls usually within minutes, at all hours of the day and week (even from hockey games), and quickly set up video walkthroughs of potential properties. Experienced: not only does Troy have years of experience in real estate, he has long family ties with building renovation and construction; this enabled him to critically evaluate every property for flaws and needed upgrades, as well as unique features. Honest: Troy knew what exactly we wanted in a property and gave us his honest opinion of the pros and cons of each one we seriously considered; over the year he rightly directed us away from some and brought others to our attention that we missed. Knowledgeable: he informed us of many local developments that might affect our decision (regarding property values, water views, construction noise/traffic, etc.), as well as of great local eateries, parks, and sights. Unflappable: he was the voice of calm when negotiations were tense and had a backup plan for every outcome. Over-the top service: Troy went way beyond the norm in helping us get settled in, recommending a title company, locksmiths, and housecleaners, and delivering Amazon packages directly to our new place when we were not there to receive them ourselves. In a place like Portland where everyone seems to know everyone else, we feel very lucky to consider Troy our first friend and neighbor there.
i may sound like a broken record because I have hired troy three times now to buy homes in the area. I would not consider anyone else. Troy is thorough, honest, and has a lot of knowledge and open mindedness with each property he lists. He has a keen sense to envision you in the home and takes the time to get to know you and deeply thinks and considers all aspects and challenges a home brings so that proper feedback can be given. He is also very calm and patient, which are key attributes when handling excited people looking at multiple homes. I will use Troy again and again to buy homes. Luckily I found one that our family loves long-term so I will be set for a while ! I will recommend him to anyone searching for a buying ( or selling) broker.
My wife and I were excited to buy our first home. We quickly realized we had no idea what to do. That all changed the second we started working with Troy. He helped us navigate the hardest market for buyers in the last 10 years. He never gave up, and offered expert advice.We finally found our home, and I know it wouldnt have been possible without Troy.There are many who do what Troy does, but I doubt there are many who do it as well.
Troy is extremely professional. He answers any and all questions with a great attitude. He is a pleasure to work with. He takes care of all and any issues that may arise. He is pleasant, timely and on top of all information.
I can honestly say the entire home buying process was a breeze, all thanks to Troy. I was a first time home buyer, and really needed an agent that could walk me through the process. From first time we chatted on the phone, I could tell he was a straight shooter and was extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. We looked at a handful of houses, and he would always give me his honest opinion and never pressured me into anything. He also has a great eye and is knowledgeable about renovations and what is needed to update a home. I added up closing on my dream home, and I could not have done it without him!Look no further for an agent, Troy is amazing. I will be recommending him to anyone I know looking to buy in Southern Maine.
I cant say enough positive things about my experience with Troy. He never tried to push or sell, always gave me his honest opinion and was incredibly responsive. He also had great ideas on improvements that would increase value and offered suggestions for contractors who could be used. I would highly recommend Troy to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. He was one of the best Ive ever worked with in 30 years! -Carole S.
As a first time home buyer I was little nervous about buying a new home. Troy made this process so easy and fun and truly knows everything about the Portland market. He didnt just find me the perfect home but assisted with the entire process through ownership. I can not say enough good things about his professional experience and market expertise and would recommend him to anyone who is looking to sell or buy their new house.
Had a fantastic experience with Troy as a first time home buyer. He really walked me through everything I needed to do and I felt extremely confident in all my decisions and the whole process thanks to Troy.
Knowledgeable, professional, and honest. Troy responded promptly to all communication and guided us through the condo buying process in Portland. He found us the perfect home and negotiated a great price! He has also remained in contact beyond the closing.
Troy was great in helping us every step of the process. We started our search at the very beginning of the pandemic and ending up building. My husband was very anxious and had a million questions. Troy was very attentive in answering him and reassuring him along the way. He provided honest advice and was great helping us navigate uncharted territory caused by the pandemic. Highly recommend Troy!!
Troy was able to help us reach a price for our condo we were happy with. He was responsive and super helpful. He did not help us purchase a home at this time, so our review for negotiation skills is N/A.
Troy is an amazing agent to work with. He sold my first home 6 years ago and without hesitation, I knew he was my first call when looking for an agent to help me buy this year. He went above and beyond to help sell my home and find our dream home. I was extremely impressed with his organization, and professionalism from the start. He is thorough, and thoughtful in all aspects for his clients. He made sure to address and explain any questions and concerns I had. Troy is so easy to talk to, genuine and honest. He really looked out for my best interest all the way. He answered every call, email, text and never left me hanging. His many years of experience show through his communication skills, working with his clients and other agents. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Troy to anyone looking to sell or find the home of their dreams! Working with Troy has been a pleasure and I am grateful for the smooth transition he helped to provide for myself and my family.
As a first time home buyer, I was searching for a person who could walk me through the process in an approachable and experienced way. From the beginning, Troy was easy to talk to, responsive and knowledgeable. He walked me through the timeline of home buying and outlined what to expect. His 20+ years in the real estate field and first-hand knowledge of the Portland area made me extremely comfortable with his ability to sift through all of the details in making my purchase. He was willing to show me a variety of homes, in different locations and actually put the home I purchased on my radar because he had an acute sense of what I wanted. His nuanced understanding of buyers and sellers helped me put in an offer that was accepted and he was a dependable presence throughout the process, from the open houses, inspection and all the way through closing. He would check in consistently and, helped allay any fears I had about the process when everything normal changed overnight due to Covid-19. The process felt very smooth, and I know that was in large part facilitated by Troy. Troy is many things rolled into one: an advocate, a good listener, and a person who wants the best for his clients. I highly recommend Troy and am very pleased with the place I now call home.
Troy was an absolute pleasure to work. He was very professional all the way through. He was always on top of every email, text, and questions we had. He made us feel as if he had full control and we didnt have to worry about a thing while always keeping us in the loop. Everything went as smooth as possible. He exceeded our expectations.
I embarked on another house hunting journey this past fall and I did it with ease knowing Troy was on the case. I have worked with him before. He looks out for my best interests the entire way. He pays attention to the details and really helps me analyze and weigh the pros and cons. His knowledge of the area and his ability to see values beyond the ordinary person are such important attributes in a realtor. I'll never work with anyone else!! He is persistent, highly knowledgeable, and his calm demeanor helps the entire process become comfortable and smooth.
From the moment we met Troy over a year ago before we moved to Maine, and up until the purchase of our home this winter, we have received exceptional support throughout the entire process. Thank you, Troy!
My husband and I met Troy just over a year ago when we were scouting out properties for my parents, who were planning a move from New York to the Portland area. We knew immediately that they'd click with him and appreciate his knowledgable, straightforward approach, so we put them in touch with him right away. Troy took the time to really listen to their needs and the details of their finances and arranged a weekend tour of five excellent homes in the area, one of which was absolutely perfect for them. Their deal went off without a hitch, and they are now fully settled and could not be happier with their property. A couple of months ago, when my husband and I were ready to buy our first home in the area ourselves, Troy was our first call. Our experience has been phenomenal. Troy is an absolute professional, and carries himself with the ease that only true, lived experience in the market could provide. He has been patient and responsive without exception throughout what would otherwise have been a stressful process, and we have turned to him for advice with full confidence at every step of the way. He negotiated on our behalf in a manner that always made us feel involved and heard, while still able to tap into his knowledge base. Yesterday, we closed on a house that we are absolutely thrilled about. I feel truly fortunate on behalf of my husband and I and my parents that Troy happened to answer the phone when I called that listing last year, and would recommend his exceptional services wholeheartedly to anyone!
If you're looking for a realtor who is super-knowledgable about the Portland market, invests time working with first-time homebuyers, adaptable to client demands, and will fight like hell on behalf of their clients, look no further than Troy Wilkins.As a young (single) professional woman, I found the concept of buying my first home very intimidating. I didn't realize what I needed, what to look out for, and how to navigate a seller's market. Troy walked me through every step of the process and was generous of his time (I can't believe how many dilapidated homes/multi-units I made him walk through with me!). After several months of looking, we put an offer on a condo that fell through. At that point, I needed a break from house hunting and my father fell very ill. Troy was very patient throughout this process and periodically checked in to see how I was doing.Three years later, when I was ready to buy a home, there was no question that I wanted to work with Troy again. Several members of my boyfriend's family had realtor licenses and offered to help, but we wanted someone who knew the Portland housing market, and who could help us visualize our possibilities in each prospective home. I reached out to Troy, and he responded promptly. Since I knew more about what I wanted, I sent a list of homes I wanted to look at. Troy took care of the scheduling and generated thorough profiles of each home for the walkthrough. When we placed offers, Troy gave us candid feedback based on his experience as a seller's broker. This feedback was helpful--when it came time to place a second offer on a home, it was accepted against another bid!We have been in our new home for three weeks now, and I still wake up every day happy about the house! It wouldn't have been possible without Troy Wilkins!
Simply put; Troy is the best. Over the course of the past 7 years weve sold 2 homes using Troy, bought one with him and used him to find a tenant in between it all. He knows the market well, will negotiate hardball if thats your style (it is), is very responsive and WILL go the extra mile every time. In one case that meant 5 open houses in 3 weekends, in another it meant painting our newly renovated house with us. Hire Troy; trust me.
Troy Wilkins, ably assisted by Jourdan Willard, did a masterful job helping us sell our house. Troy and Jourdan provided superb (and unusual in my experience) help throughout the process, walking through our house and creating a detailed to-do punch list, recommending excellent people to assist with house-selling fix-ups, and, most dramatically, coming to our aid the day of the closing. Just as we were fading after being up all night packing, Troy and Jourdan arrived with Troy's oversized truck, a can-do attitude and good cheer, taking over the task of bringing stuff to Goodwill and helping us move other stuff into our U-Haul. Troy, a Jack of many trades, even had the skill to dissemble our complicated TV from the wall so that we didn't have to leave it in the house after the movers refused to touch it!
Troy has been my real estate agent for several years now. He came highly recommended to me by my colleagues, and as a newcomer to the Portland area, Troy spent lots of time getting to know my taste and educating me on the varying communities around Portland. It took quite a while for me to finally decide on a place and I am very thankful for Troy's patience with me. If you're looking for someone who knows houses and the housing market, someone who knows the history of the area, and someone who will steer you away from a bad deal and selflessly point you toward a perfect and smart fit, Troy is your guy.
Troy did a fantastic job guiding us through the home-buying process! He took the time to meet with my husband and I for a couple hours to give us a crash course in the journey we were about to embark on, which we really appreciated. He was always quick to respond when we wanted to see a home or move forward with presenting a bid. He gave us his honest opinion on the value of homes we were interested in and despite losing several bids, through Troys help and our patience and determination to get what we wanted, we got the best home in our price range for the best deal possible. We highly recommend Troy.
Having decided to relocate to Portland, ME, I contacted Troy about a listing I was intrigued by and thought to fly in & tour. Troy then sent me other listings to review and devoted a couple of his days to not only taking me to each, but also on a tour of the city, answering questions of all sorts. Troy never placed any pressure to buy or move up in price points. He was funny and smart-- and vastly knowledgable.
Troy was very professional and helpful. He worked diligently to find just the right home for me.I have not purchased a home on my own for a while and he made to process so much easier and less stressful for me. Troy was very prompt in addressing all my questions and concerns.I would definitely recommend working with Troy if you are interested in purchasing real estate.
Troy walked me through all of the applicable steps throughout the home buying process. He was extremely helpful when it came to explaining what I might have to look at in terms of maintenance and repair for the prospective houses. I would recommend Troy to my friends and family - he made the process understandable and made what could be an extremely stressful endeavor actually enjoyable!
Troy helped us buy a home in Scarborough, ME. He helped us get a good price on the house and negotiated with the sellers and their agents. I would recommend him to anyone who is buying or selling a home.
Troy represented us in purchasing our new home in Maine. As out-of-staters we were unfamiliar with the buying protocols in Maine. Troy was helpful and straightforward and a pleasure to work with. He did a great job of shepherding the process from our first visit through closing. Suffice to stay Troy gets it, gets it right, and gets it done. We highly recommend his services.
My wife and I both grew up in Maine, and following retirement decided to relocate back there. We asked the trusted real estate agent listing our house in Colorado to recommend an agent in southern Maine. He checked and based on the performance records of the agents he reviewed recommended Troy Wilkins. We were in contact with Troy by e-mail while our house in Colorado was on the market; we described the type of home we wanted and, since we didn't know how long it would take to find the new house, asked him to look into temporary rentals as well. He followed up. During our subsequent house-hunting trip, he showed us a number of homes that might fit our requirements; he also provided for our consideration a number of rental units in case we needed to rent for a while. However this was unnecessary since at the end of the week during which he escorted us to various houses for sale, we found the ideal home for us. Troy was very helpful during negotiations, helping us to get the best price agreeable to both parties. As with almost all houses, some repairs or modifications were needed, and Troy was helpful in recommending qualified local tradesmen. We would highly recommend Troy Wilkins.
I can't say enough good things about working with Troy and sincerely recommend him to anyone (buying or selling) in the real estate market. He has extensive industry experience and a wealth of knowledge in a constantly changing, local market that makes you confident in his opinions, guidance and recommendations. He was incredibly helpful during the entire buying process (this is our first home), going above and beyond helping with title attorneys, seller realtors, inspectors, and providing continual communication about what was happening and what needed to happen next. Despite the fact that we obviously weren't his only client, he was readily available to look at a home with us or provide all the information we needed to help make a good decision - we were always a priority. His overall professional demeanor coupled with a friendly personality and strong moral compass, made him not a only a solid negotiator, but more importantly, someone you trust to do right by you. I can't recommend him enough.
Mr. Wilkins represents one of the finest balances that an agent could possibly offer in the area. He possesses a combination of local knowledge, a sense of urgency without being abrasive and above all else, an ability to find his clients interests out in the market. He can pinpoint what you want even if you havent figured out your dream home, and he can do all these without making you feel like you spent your life savings. I found a fabulous home with style, prime location and a fair price. All with a fabulous view and peace and quiet.
Troy is an amazing realtor, who exudes a passion for real estate and for helping people find their place. As first time home buyers we could not have asked for anything more--his guidance was invaluable and he clearly cared more about finding the right place for us than he did getting the quick sale. Give him a call.
Troy helped my wife and I navigate the entire home buying process with patience and professionalism. I travel a lot for work and Troy made himself available to go with my wife to visit properties, walk her through the inspection process, and then went out of his way to update me by phone. I highly recommend Troy if you're looking for a strong negotiator, buyer advocate, and very knowledgeable real estate agent.
If you're looking to buy in Southern Maine, I cannot recommend Troy enough. He is responsive, but not pushy and was willing to answer all of my (many) questions throughout the process. As a first-time home buyer, his knowledge of renovations and what's involved in updating certain aspects of a home was invaluable. He was able to give me a frame of reference for how much things could/should cost to fix and would also point out if there was anything about the home that I should be concerned about (or things I thought were concerning, but were actually minor).Being a buyer in this market can be daunting, but Troy was a huge help in determining the right price to bid in multiple offer situations, and how to negotiate during the whole process. Things move quickly and he was always available to get an offer in or answer a question even on nights or weekends. Having him in my corner made the whole process SO much less stressful and I look forward to working with him again in the future.
As new transplants to Portland, having Troy Wilkins as our real estate agent reassured us that moving to Maine was the right thing for us to do. In addition to Troys professionalism and local knowledge, his attentiveness, candidness, and trustworthiness made us feel that he had our best interests at heart. Throughout the process, he patiently answered all of our questions about selected properties, neighborhoods, and local amenities. Troy familiarized himself with our personal preferences and matched us with our new house perfectly. After the closing on our dream home, he even provided us with a long list of recommended service providers that really helped smooth the transition into the house. With other close friends moving to the Portland area in the near future, we can think of no other person who wed recommend to help them find their perfect slice of Vacationland!
Troy is a straight forward, honest professional. He gives helpful advice throughout the process, has excellent contacts, is responsive, and cares about his clients. I am very pleased that he was my agent.
Troy was a pleasure to work with. Any time we had a question for him, no matter how dumb the question was, he would respond immediately. He was very patient with us and was willing to show us as many houses as it took to find the perfect home. Overall, Troy made our first time home buying experience an easy one. We will certainly be contacting him again when/if we need a realtor in the future.
As a first time home buyer, I was nervous about a lot of things. Troy was awesome. He answered all of my questions quickly and presented me with all of the possible options when there was a decision to be made. He explained everything to me in great detail so I could understand it. He's the best.
Troy did an outstanding job helping us relocate from Chicago, IL, to Portland, ME. He is very knowledgeable about both the local housing market and construction and architecture. He also took the time to understand our needs and concerns and turned out to be a great problem-solver with issues arising from buying a house and relocating. I highly recommend him for both buyers and sellers.
Troy Wilkins is a phenomenal real estate agent with comprehensive knowledge of the area and the buying/ selling process as a whole. Not only was I a new home buyer, but also moving from out of state, which can be daunting. Troy's approachable nature walked me through each step, clearly articulating what I should expect, guiding me to make the right decisions for myself. His years of experience brings a network of individuals from mortgage lenders, to home inspectors that create a seamless process. He was patient, listened to my wish list in a home and aligned it with not only the area I was vying for, but found the perfect house to fit my needs. As a testament to his level of service, which consistently was above and beyond, I've actually recommended him to my family, who now has interest in purchasing property in Maine. If you are looking to buy or sell property in Maine, Troy Wilkins is hands down the best person to help you.
Troy is very knowledgable and easy to work with. As first-time home buyers, his advice and expertise were invaluable to us. We never felt pressured or pushed on any decisions, and he was very open and honest when we asked for his analysis of a property or situation.
Knowledgeable of the neighborhoods, insightful when it comes to market trends, understood our needs and was available. Worked with us in the areas in and around Portland.
Troy helped me purchase a home in Portland and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. He was attentive, professional, and a blessing to work with. His knowledge of the market was a huge help! He took the time to comb through each property with me and worked to ensure I was comfortable with my home purchase. I look forward to working with Troy again.
If you are looking to buy property anywhere around Portland, it would be a mistake not to go with Troy. He was incredibly knowledgable, attentive and highly motivated to get you the best deal possible. For me, he went above and beyond what a typical realtor does to make my home buying experience as smooth as possible. His knowledge of properties and the current real estate market allowed me to make the most educated purchase possible. On top of his professional skills, he is incredibly friendly and understanding throughout the whole buying/selling process. In the future, whether I am buying or selling, there is no other realtor I am going to call. Troy has rightfully cemented himself as my permanent realtor.
We selected Troy to represent us when we relocated to Maine. Not only did he help us quickly find a house that met most of our needs, he went above and beyond what I would expect of a real estate professional. For example, I was traveling on business in upstate New York and the builder needed us to select and deliver lighting on very short notice to the house. My wife was not in the area but Troy volunteered to make the delivery to our new house under construction. My wife worked with Troy and ordered the lighting for delivery to South Portland and Troy made several trips to make sure the lighting was delivered to the house in time for the builder. He has also supported us after closing and followed up on punchlist items with the builder. To summarize, I recommend Troy without hesitation and if I ever buy another house, he'll be the first person I call.
We are moving from Boston to Maine and Troy helped us find our new home. He was very forthcoming about identifying not only the positive attributes of the properties we were interested in, but also the potential pitfalls, which we really appreciated. He is very knowledgable, easy going, and always took the time to answer our questions. We had a great experience and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for property in Maine!

It took me 4 months to find a home, and Troy was extremely patient with me throughout the whole buying process. This was my first home purchase and wasn't sure what I was looking for. His wealth of knowledge of the area, attention to detail, and contacts within the industry proved to be invaluable. Working with Troy was a breeze and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to purchase a home in the Portland, ME area.
I called several Realtors in the Portland area when looking to buy my first home and Troy was the only one that got back to me punctually. And am I glad he did! Couldn't have asked for a better agent, from his laid back, super friendly personality to his vast experience and knowledge of the industry. If you are buying, selling or just need an agent in Portland definitely give Troy a call, you will not regret it!
