We are super pleased with the performance of Simple Fee Realty and our agent Jessie Lucas on the recent sale of our... Hebron home! We struggled to get comps at the time to establish a fair market value, but Jessie Lucas performed a market evaluation and set a price that was above what we were expecting. Jessie guided us through all the details and ended up bringing us a buyer within days. We accepted an offer at 99% of asking price and by listing with Jessie saved $15,000 in commissions. If you are looking for a reliable realtor that will provide exceptional customer service, Jessie Lucas and Simple Fee Realty are the ones to call.read more

If you are looking for a great realtor I would highly recommend Steve Briner. We have been looking for the right home... for awhile and have reached out to many Realtors. We were instantly impressed with Steve’s professionalism and willingness to go out of his way to make sure all of our questions were answered. So much so, we feel transitioning into our new home was almost effortless. Thank you Steve!read more

Blaire and the Simple Fee Realty team provided us a way to list our home with a realtor and avoid paying 6%. Our home... sold to the first showing booked with Simple Fee Realty. Blaire was extremely responsive before, during and after the sale of our home. We would highly recommend Simple Fee Realty for anyone who is looking for a full-service realtor without the high fees.read more

Steve was great and offered us all of the services of a more expensive realtor for the Simple Fee flat fee. He gave us... very good advice and walked through every step of the process. Always communicated quickly and well when we had questions and was fast to act when we requested anything. In this day and age, when everyone is looking online and all the paperwork is digital forms, it doesn't make sense to pay extra for all the legwork realtors were doing in the 1900's. Steve saved us thousands of dollars and we're thankful for that. I'd recommend him to anyone considering selling their home.read more

One of our neighbors have used Simple Fee Realty and recommended them. Every one we worked with are very helpful,... responsive and prompt. As a first time seller, it was a tough ordeal to sell, but Blaire helped us navigate the process very smoothly. It is nice to save money with fixed fee sellers agent as we had lot of other like moving, fixing and closing costs (including buyers agents). We highly recommend Blaire and Simple Fee Realty to sell your home.read more

When we were ready to sell our house, we were looking for a flat fee realtor in the area to save some money. We were... concerned that we would have to sacrifice on real estate representation when thinking about going with a flat fee service but we were wrong. After looking at reviews of a few different companies, Simple Fee Realty stood out-as did the reviews for Blaire. We met with Jim but did the majority of our communication with Blaire. She was very helpful, friendly and always responded quickly with any questions-calls or texts-that we had. I felt very comfortable with Blaire and couldn't ask for a better experience. This is not the first house we have sold or the first flat fee realtor that we have used and I can say, without a doubt, we would use Blaire and Simple Fee Realty again without a second thought. Thank you for a great experience!read more

My husband and I wanted to save money on realtor commissions, so we decided to go with a flat fee realtor. I looked up... our local choices, and Simple Fee's website came up. I randomly chose Blaire Hancock from the list of individuals. She reached out to me the same day. Turns out she had recently relocated to another state, however, with her contacts, she would still be able to fulfill all aspects of service required. I'm so glad we connected with her. She was always on top of every little detail and communication couldn't have been any more timely. She was super pleasant and professional. She saved us $9,730 in realtor fees! A great experience. We strongly recommend Blaire and Simple Fee Realty.read more

I was skeptical of the low fee Simple Fee charges but decided to use them given the hot market. To say Blaire at... Simple Fee exceeded my expectations of a real estate agent is the understatement of the century. There's no way anyone could have outworked her no matter their commission amount. Despite the low fee, she acted above and beyond as a full service agent. She came onsite, gave me tips to get my house ready, advised me on a selling price based on market research, gave me great advice on listing, took excellent pictures of my property, created my listing, helped me navigate showings, helped me negotiate the MULTIPLE OFFERS I received and helped me close in 2 DAYS! Oh yeah, I was also on vacation out of town when my house hit the market and Blaire handled everything. I highly recommend this company - I'll never use anyone else again.read more
