Default Best MLS and VLS agents

I know, I know talked about many many times already but nothing came up in the search above and I didn't pay attention before.

Sooo my VLS agent is reitired and I stumbled upon one but want to know who you think is the best. Also has anyone used Jason Krantz and would you recommend him?

How about MLS? Who's the best now?

Thanks for your help!!!

SSmith

You will probably get as many opinions as there are agents! Everyone believes they have or had the best working for them.

ssmith - I don't know if I have seen his name mentioned here before or not, but we finally bought a home through Chris Hallmark who works as a VLS agent. He, happily and patiently, worked with us for 5+ years through many changes and decisions before we actually bought a home. He never pressured us and was always so kind and patient. He answered any calls/questions/etc very promptly and never seemed to mind being called even if it was a weekend or holiday. Just a great guy! His right hand person in the office, Gloria, is also very nice and conscientious. They made the whole process a real pleasure and we feel that we have made new friends!

Sorry I can't help you from first hand experience regarding an MLS agent, but I wish you all the best in your search. Hope you will be a TV homeowner in no time!

We used VLS agent Tim Harding who was referred to us. He was great to work with, returned our email and phone calls promptly, never any pressure and was able to answer all our questions. I'm sure other buyers have similar comments regarding their sales reps, good luck.

I wound up buying from VLS, but the best MLS agent I met during my search was Lavae Dierker (352) 205-3473

We used Jason and could not have been more satisfied. As previously stated a lot of folks have had good experiences with their sales rep. However you could not go wrong using Jason.

In addition to a great job in helping you find a home, he does not forget about you when the sale is over.

VLS - Debra Parks
352-753-4000 VLS Office / 352-408-8800 Cell
We listed and sold with her in 2010. And she also assisted us in purchasing a home.
We are only interested in purchasing resales, and she never pressured us to buy a new home.
She is an excellent agent, very experienced and professional.

We used MLS to buy our first home in 2007 - Laura and Armond Vien.
We bought sight unseen and closed without seeing the house. They made the whole transaction very easy for us.
