I didn't need to hand the listing over to an agent and wanted to save the money on the commission. Ms. Jones
We were planning to sell our home ourselves, but thought why not add professionals to the process as well. It gives us the power to keep our money. Mr. and Mrs. Gosnell After researching all the alternatives, we concluded that this way provided the best service for the money. My company is not reimbursing me any of my fees for my move, so I had to stretch the dollar as far as possible. Berry Gibson North Highlands... We want to thank you for all help, advice and encouragement throughout the selling process. Also, the best part is we saved close to $30,000! The work of showing the house and hosting the Open Houses was well worth it! Michael Gunther
Why I listed my home with Duffy Realty…”
The Geheren Firm, P.C., Dunwoody , GA. .. We first learned about Duffy Realty during a chance closing with a Duffy client. As we learned more about the Duffy business model and the positives that it brings for everyone involved, we immediately understood the value of the service and respected Duffy's clients for choosing to use the service. Many closings later, we are still seeing smiling faces of Duffy clients and we continue to hear their stories of success in selling their homes and saving money. It is clear to us that the Duffy business model is changing the way real estate is sold and we are proud to be involved in the process. Pat Geheren, Attorney at Law
Harry Norman Realtors... I want to personally thank you for your involvement and professionalism in the handling of our recent co-op with you. We are keenly aware that the success we enjoy is due in large part to our professional agents in the community. Martha Schwinne, V.P. Managing Broker
"We were shocked to learn our home's value was over $600,000.00 when we decided to sell. We listed with a traditional realtor and reluctantly faced paying $40,000.00 in commission. When it didn't sell we pulled the listing and called Wayne . He listed our home for a flat fee, put it on all of the websites and within 2 weeks it was sold, for $50,000.00 over list price and with a total marketing cost of less than $4000.00. That's the way it should be! Nothing that any other realtor could have done would be worth $40,000.00!" Greg and Marti Comer, Forest Park , Birmingham 10 acre farm, Mount Juliet , TN ... I really didn't expect you to sell my property in 6 days. Wow! I tried selling earlier with another agent with no success. I'm impressed Thank You! Richard Kasnick
Westfork, Smyrna , TN … Wow! Thank you so much…I was impressed by your services, amazed at your prices and ECSTATIC with the results …we appreciated being able to contact you any time, and you are very professional. I'm completely satisfied with your service and would gladly refer to my friends. Thank you again and best wishes for your successful future. Jane Lemmonds
Bayshore, Hendersonville , TN ... Longmire Realty is super! I have listed and sold several properties using their service and can not understand why anyone would pay full commission when their service was just as good as a full fee agent. I have had several great experiences and sold 2 homes in less than two months. I saved thousands of dollars! Stanley Fields
Murfreesboro , TN the need for the traditional realty services has changed greatly. Unfortunately the services offered have not kept up with the times. Carl and Longmire Realty gave us flexibility and with realtor commission and excessive fees that no one around here offers. We were able to list on our terms but do our own thing with a little bit of hand holding. The ALA-carte services concept is awesome and offers cost saving and flexibility that is what's missing in today's traditional market. Jamie Winnett Hendersonville , TN. .. If you are looking to sell your home, I would highly recommend using Longmire Realty. We sold our home in less than a week and today we are listing another property! Christina and Mark G'Fransico
Legacy, Smyrna , TN …Thank your for your help and service that you provided …I appreciate all of the help you provided. Thanks and God Bless you. Kathy Simpson
Cimmaron Trace, Goodlettsville , TN …I would definitively use this service again and would tell anyone who is pondering it, do it! It was cost effective and got the job done. I am extremely pleased! Ronnie Bass To Debbie Langford, Buyer's Agent for Duffy Realty: Thank you for your efforts in the sale of the above property. From our many years of experience, we know that it takes a lot of time, effort, interest and just plain hard work to put together and close a transaction. We wanted to take the time to acknowledge and congratulate you for your contribution to this transaction. Great success in the future. Helen Lynch, Jenny Pruitt and Associates Atlanta , GA. ..
I enjoyed meeting Shelly Lail today. She was very professional and helpful. I am impressed with your idea and I think it will be THE way to sell a house within 10 years. Stan Everett Atlanta , GA. .. Rhonda and Jan, I just wanted to thank you for a job well done on both the sell of our old house and the purchase of our new house. Both transactions went very smoothly and were financially beneficial to us as compared to using a traditional real estate process. I think your concept for both the sell and purchase transaction is the way of the future for smart homeowners. Since I am also in the business of helping consumers, I really appreciate a true value added service such as yours! Keep up the great work and the next time we decide to sell, you will be the first person I call. In addition, I continue to recommend you to everyone I know who is thinking of selling or purchasing. Craig Dunwoody , GA. .. To Cary : Thank you for you services in assisting us in finding a home. We've been in our home for three months and are still thrilled with our purchase and we can thank you for helping us find our home. Your dedication in working for your customers was clearly demonstrated in your tireless efforts in finding the perfect home for our family. We truly felt we had someone working for us. You demonstrated this by even taking our offer letter to the seller in face to face meeting to make sure that we were coming up with an offer that worked to our favor. When we first met to discuss your services as a buyer's agent, you told us that you would "work to represent us and our interests". You definitely did that but also exceeded our expectations. Mr. and Mrs. Pickren
Wellington Subdivision, Alpharetta , GA . .. I tried selling my home a year earlier with 'BuyOwner' and eventually took it off the market after over 6 months with no sale. Then after placing an ad in the AJC, you called me and I gave you a chance at selling my home. Your energy and the low cost made it worth at least a try. You sold my home in three weeks! Thank you! Christopher Lynn Riverclub Drive , Cumming , GA… Wow! Thank you so much…I was impressed by your services, amazed at your prices and ECSTATIC with the results …we appreciated being able to contact you any time, anywhere, especially when our buyer wanted to deal immediately. After a flurry of paperwork and faxes, we had sold our house for what we wanted… I only wish we had found your services sooner . If we ever try to sell a house again in Georgia , we will only use you…thank you again and best wishes for your successful future. Jon and Barbara Johnson
Bob and Cheryl O'Donnell
Fitzpatrick Way , Norcross , GA… Once we contacted Duffy Realty, we found a person, Rhonda, who wanted to help us like a full agent The fees were reasonable and she returned all calls and e-mails promptly. Rhonda helped us sell our home and provided advice along the way. I would recommend that everyone try Rhonda's system…it bridges the full “FSBO” and the full agent listing. We saved money. Aberdeen Woods, Nashville , TN …I can't believe we sold in 22 days…Incredible job! Just a note on to say thank you and god bless you. Saundra and I appreciate the extra efforts you extended in order to ensure such a successful transaction. We hope to send you some referrals soon. Jeff and Saundra Mabry
5 acre , Arrington, TN ... …Longmire Realty was an integral part of the entire process …handling over a dozen calls from the buyer's agent and us… we thank you for your knowledge and patience. Your service is incredible. Mike and Kathleen Ryan
Old Ivy, Buckhead ... Just looked at your listing details. Great job! I could not have done better myself. Thanks. Don Smith Taylor Oaks, Alpharetta ... In today's world of technology the need for the traditional realty services has changed greatly. Unfortunately the services offered have not kept up with the times. The almost zero flexibility and excessive fees are pushing more and more potential clients away to do their own thing but for most people a little bit of hand holding would be great. The solution to this problem was found for me in Duffy Realty. ALA-carte services offered can be shaped to fit very different individual needs and the cost saving and flexibility is what's missing in the traditional market. Helen Telschow
First, your ad listing was written and formatted much better than the previous ad. Secondly, within days we were having calls of interest- and showings, from both realtors and individuals. Over the next 2? months, there were more than 20 showings! What was most amazing was that on the weekend that we received the offer, 3 more realtors followed anxious to make offers! The first offer was great- 99% of our asking price- and a closing date within 3 weeks! Yes, a realtor was involved, but I'll take 3% versus 7% any day.
Squire Lane , Cumming ... About Realtor.com …”Rhonda – this is WONDERFUL!! What a marketer you are! Kathy Mossburg Midtown condo, GA... Thanks for helping me sell my home earlier this year... it was such a relief! I will continue to pass on your name. Therese Molinario
Alpharetta … We saw increased traffic at the property once we signed up with Duffy Realty. I felt the value and the ability to match your budget with the services offered was very good. I would use this service again. Maria Kidd Lochland Circle , Roswell ... We were quite pleased with our experience with Duffy Realty. The service you provide people selling their own home is invaluable. I did feel it was somewhat difficult to reach you at times, but I was prepared for that and I knew that it would be that way going into this experience. You obtained listings and provided a lockbox for us, which is, I believe, how we came to sell our home. I have recommended you already to friends and will continue to do so. Kammi Waggoner
Buckingham Subdivision, Lawrenceville ... Being the daughter of a builder, and having a husband who is a home inspector, I knew we didn't need to go with a full-service, traditional agent to sell our home. We attempted to sell it "for sale by owner", but no agents would show it even though we said we would protect a buyer's agent. Duffy Realty called and convinced me that their service would help us sell our home. The most important "marketing tools" that agents offer are listings on MLS, FMLS, and a lockbox. Duffy Realty offered these marketing tools at a fraction of the cost of a traditional agent. This left us much more room in negotiating and after 3 weeks on the market, we had a contract that got us what we wanted from our house. My husband and I have already recommended many of our friends and family to use Duffy Realty. We will continue to do so. Update: One of my friends that I recommended to Rhonda just got a contract on their house after only 10 days! Northdale, Lawrenceville ... I was very happy with Duffy Realty – we had our condo up for a while as ‘for sale by owner' and hadn't gotten much traffic. I was surprised and really pleased how quickly it picked up once we got with Rhonda, and how soon we got an offer! Lee Merritt Avensong, Alpharetta ... “I really enjoyed working with Rhonda. She was very professional and saved us a lot of money . We sold in four weeks!” Beth Ramsey
Roswell ... Before using Duffy Realty, I was a believer in the concept as I feel 7% commission is an outdated figure from when homes were only $100,000. After using Duffy Realty, I am more than ever a believer that 7% is too high and that the Duffy model provides an educated seller, who is willing to do some work, an option to save a bunch of money and still be supported around all of the real estate rules and protocol that need to be followed. I am very happy I chose Duffy, would do it again, and have already recommended Duffy to others. Lori
Marietta... It's been some time now since we've completed the sale of our home. It was through your hard work and experience that we were able to make it a successful close. We want to express our gratitude for the time that you spent with us answering our questions. We certainly feel that you went beyond the call of duty .
Marietta... We sold our home within one week of listing it with you and were able to save thousands! Thank you! This is the future of real estate. We will be recommending your services to all of our friends.
Sharon Run S/D, Powder Springs ... The house closed today! After all my misgivings, it actually went quite smoothly - even if it was kind of strange to be signing a fresh contract for the sale at the closing table.
East Hampton S/D, Marietta ... I want to thank you for starting up such a new and innovative company . Your company is exactly what I was looking for to help me sell my home. The day I put your sign in my yard I had 5 people want to come through the house and it continued that way every day after for 2 weeks and then we received an offer that we excepted. Thank you for helping me save thousands of dollars. Good luck to you and company . Deanna Gothard
Piedmont Condos, Atlanta ... Duffy Realty provided me with the specific services that I needed, when I needed. Duffy Realty's services were uncomplicated, professional and extremely responsive. They delivered as promised with no hidden agendas or fees. I never felt pressure to sign up for more than I needed. Duffy enabled me to sell my condo in a soft market and I would recommend Duffy Realty services to anyone looking to sell. Matt Roberts
Sandy Springs... After trying conventional realtor without good results, we decided to try to sell the house on our own, but needed help in getting the listing on the internet. We were contacted by other services that were interested in helping us place our listing on FMLS and MLS web sites, but none offered the additional future service and advice in selling the house. So Duffy was the natural choice.
Lilburn ... Rhonda, I only wish that I would have known about and used your service earlier in my effort to sell my house, I would not have wasted the first two months as a “by owner”. As a beginning investor, I really appreciated all of your help and that of your office staff as well. You can be sure to hear from me again when I have my next house to sell. Sue Jones
Alpharetta, Estate Property ... Thank your for your help and service that you provided. Gordon Bruno
Cumming, Polo Fields ... Thank you for your assistance. We have closed and all is well. You are one hard working individual! Mr. and Mrs. Rowsey Alpharetta, Millstone ... We closed today and want to thank you so much for your help. You have an awesome program and we are constantly telling our friends and associates about it! Keep going… you are doing great things! Debra Stanford
Lawrenceville, Kings Hill ... Just wanted to say thank you so much for helping me with the endless phone calls to get this house closed. We could not have done it without your help. You guys are great at what you do and we really enjoyed the opportunity to work with you and get the job done efficiently and yet save money too!Thanks again. David Lawrence
Atlanta... Simple way to get quick exposure in front of real estate agents. Though I cannot speak about other situations, my home was under contract 1 week from the initial day of listing. Chris Ahrenkiel
Alpharetta, Rhodes Plantation ... We chose to have you list our home in multiple listing and help us through the negotiations of the sale. Of course, if there were other services that we needed, we could have purchased them from you. We really feel that we had all the benefits of a real estate agent without paying the extra costs. Our home sold in less than two months and we saved mega-bucks. We loved it! If we ever sell our home again, we will most definitely call you and if we have friends or neighbors who are contemplating selling their home, we will let them know about your service. It was a pleasure working with you and Frank. Jeanette and Jerry Larch
Cumming, Polo Fields ... Using your service provided us with quick access to multiple listing services and brought traffic through our home immediately with a sale in two weeks. You did a wonderful job on our listing, with great pictures, which we think definitely helped with the quick sale of our home.
Atlanta , Brookhaven Row ... This program is awesome! I have sold two houses using it and have been pleased with the price, the savings in my pocket, the efficiency of the listing process and, well basically, the whole situation! This is the way of the future of real estate. I won't do it any other way! Jim Hines Roswell , Brassy Court ... WOW! What can I say? We tried to sell the house on our own for three months with no results. The day after we listed with Duffy Realty, we had a contract on the house and are closing the next week! Yahoo! I'm recommending you to everyone I know! Be Happy! Jeff Justice
Lilburn, St. Marks ... We tried “For Sale By Owner”. Not good enough. Not much traffic in front of the house, let alone in it. The key to our success was working with Duffy Realty. We got all the services we needed with the listings and lock box. And other Realtors brought the prospective buyers. We averaged 5 showings per week and sold in just the right amount of time. With Duffy Realty, you get what you pay for. And save a lot of $$$. Dave

Rhodes Plantation , Alpharetta , GA . .. Thanks for your help – I love your project and I am very happy about saving the extra money.
