"I just recently purchased my first home and wanted to give everyone that is looking to purchase a home a little tip/secret. Phil Jones with Your Choice Real Estate is the BEST. I will not tell you a lie, buying a home (at least your first home) is/can be stressful, but Phil was there every step of the way to help with anything and also to help explain everything that was going on. He made the home buying process a pleasure from the start of looking at homes up until closing. Hopefully, it will not happen for a while, because I LOVE my new home, but if I ever buy another home the first person that I will call will be Phil Jones @ Your Choice Real Estate."
Sincerely,

"As an out-of-town owner, we were attracted to "Your Choice Real Estate" by their flexible suite of services, responsiveness and great communication. Other agents were not so flexible to offer us only the services we really needed. They have twice found us renters for our home quickly via the MLS Assist listing service; most recently, in one month. The response was much better than the ads we ran in the paper. Phillip and Billy have also been very through following through on reference checks, assessing the applicant and completing the rental paperwork."

"Joyce & Phil,
I was very pleased with the ease and simplicity of placing a listing into the Multiple Listing Service using your listing-only business model. It definitely helped get my home in front of agents with buyers. I was pleasantly surprised that you were as responsive as you were with any changes I needed to make with and on my listing. Thank you again for your help and service. I look forward to working with you again."

"Working with Phil Jones is great! He has a “can-do" attitude and his easy-going manner, consistent follow-through, and demonstrated the ability to deliver on any request supports and strengthens that attitude. From the moment I started to work with Phil, I felt completely at ease that he would help me to find and purchase the home that I wanted. His automated MLS searches made searching for a home easy. When I asked to view homes that did not present themselves on the automated search, he said “sure" and we went to the see the homes. Phil supported and educated me through every step of my home purchase. Even after closing when I had questions, he answered them and helped me to clear up after-closing challenges. I would recommend working with Phil to anyone and I will work with him on any future home purchases. Thank you, Phil!"

"Using Your Choice Realty to list my property for sale greatly assisted in finding a buyer. Phillip went out of his way to install the electronic lockbox, driving across town. But it really made a difference and was much more convenient for me. My experience was great; working with Phillip was so easy, I had no hesitation listing another property with Your Choice Realty. Two thumbs up!"

"Dear Phillip,
This letter is sent to express my personal gratitude for the services you provided during the sale of my rental house. Your response to my www.craigslist.org posting was first viewed with skepticism. Your offer to provide MLS listing services for a minimal charge making this property available to every realtor in town was initially believed to be too good to be true. After a morning of research to determine the legitimacy of "Your Choice Real Estate" I decided to try your services.
The ease at which you made the registration was beyond belief. Within 2 hours after my initial contact, I was signed up as a paying customer leaving much of the success of my sale effort up to you. By signing an agreement to cooperate with realtors, I was able to continue to sell my house myself and in the event that a realtor showed it to the buyer, I would save 50% of the real estate closing fees. The house began to show immediately. I did not keep track of all the business cards on the counter however there were several every time I stopped by the house. I also showed the house to those who contacted me directly. Each time I was showing the house, a realtor would show up with a buyer as well. I could not believe the exposure my house was receiving.
The service of having a lockbox for realtors made it easy for them to show the property without me having to be there. The additional service of adding a toll-free number on your sign posted at the curb for individuals not using a realtor to call was outstanding. I called it myself to listen to the sales pitch provided for my house and then hung up, fully satisfied with how the information was presented. To my surprise, I received a follow-up call the following day from your office asking if I had questions concerning the property. Your policy of returning 100% of the phone inquiries dialled into the number was a welcomed surprise once again exceeding my expectations.
The home was listed at www.craigslist.org on December 28th and I accepted my offer on February 28th two months to the day. Most notable was that the offer was over 99% of the asking price. I closed a short 16 days later.
Thank you for providing exceptional customer service. From beginning to end you made this sale easy, professional, and your services exceeded my expectations. Please feel free to give my name and number to others who are considering your services but would like to speak to a prior customer. I give you and your company my highest recommendation."

"We thought we would never find a house, we had been under contract three times, and been through four real estate agents, and lost a lot of money. We were very disappointed that the contracts fell through and with real estate agents in general. At that point, we decided to search on our own. After a few weekends of searching, we found a house that we liked and the listing agent was Phillip. We called and found that the house was under contract, but during the conversation, we agreed to give Phil a chance to help us finally find a home. Once we spent a little time with him searching, we knew that he was different from the rest. It turned out that we were right. A few weeks later, we were under contract with the house we own today! During the whole process, Phillip looked out for our best interests and let us make our own decisions. It was a pleasure having him as our real estate agent, Phillip came through for us."

"Kristin and I were very fortunate to find a Real Estate Agent who was willing to take as much time as was needed to find our new home. Phil was extremely helpful throughout the entire buying process. He answered questions and educated us on the limitless details to consider when making a purchase of a new home. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor who gives the "personal" touch when looking for a new home."
Thanks again,

"Dear Phil,
I just wanted to take this time to express a word or two of gratitude. Words simply can't express enough thanks for all the time and effort you invested in finding a reasonable home for me and my children. I feel that you went above and beyond and the level of commitment you dedicated was way more than I ever expected.
When I first decided to buy a home it was difficult because of the tight budget that I was on, I was referred to "others" who might be able to help me on more than one occasion and told that perhaps I should wait for a better time! Well, I am very happy that a better time was found with you, your knowledge, experience and willingness to travel will not soon be forgotten."
Thanks again,

"Your Choice Real Estate's MLS Assist really came to the rescue for us when we decided to sell our home. We had found a home that we wanted to purchase and needed to sell our house fast, but we wanted to be in control of the sale but with a little help. We called Your Choice Real Estate and had them list our home on the MLS and had a contract on our home within a week!! The exposure on MLS is so important when selling a home, and with this service you really get it without the huge realtor commissions."

"Our home selling and buying experience with Phil Jones at Your Choice Real Estate was one of ease and no worries. My wife and I recently sold our home and bought a new one. Phil was patient working with my wife to find the perfect home. He provided us with real estate wisdom and advised us on the current market. Phil does his homework! I feel that it was because of him that we got the most out of our old home and also got the best deal possible on our new home. I highly recommend Your Choice Realty, ask for Phil. "
