I am late to the game in posting this review mainly because I’ve been so busy settling into my beautiful new home! Ryan Beacher of Keller Williams did an OUTSTANDING job for me! He was knowledgable, kind, funny, and - important to me - CALM. He helped us negotiate a price when the appraisal came in a little under… Additionally, we were trying to do most everything from hundreds of miles away and Ryan and his team kept in contact, kept me in the loop, and helped for everything to go super smoothly. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan Beacher to help you with your home purchase. I don’t know what I would have done without him!
Where to even began! If you are looking for a wonderful realtor, your best bet is Ryan. He is amazing! I am a first-time home buyer, and he made the process so easy. I have heard of plenty of horror stories, but my experience was flawless and awesome… Even with this crazy market, I was able to close on my first home within three months… Do yourself a favor, and work with Ryan! You will not regret it, he is the absolute best!
Anastasia helped make my move from Atlanta to Sandestin absolutely seamless, especially considering that she handled the entire transaction for me as a remote buyer. Her comps were perfect and helped guide me toward the right property and to offer the right price. She handled the inspection, virtual walk-throughs, and even took care of the repairs so it was ready when I moved in. What could have been a very stressful experience was exciting and enjoyable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a real luxury property hometown specialist.
James reached out immediately after I expressed interest in a property and structured an offer that beat several competing offers in a hot market. He stayed responsive throughout the process, and we closed on time. I highly recommend him.
WOW! From our very first phone call, James was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and optimistic. After losing out on two homes, he never gave up and quickly found us our perfect dream home. He negotiated a fantastic deal, including all of the home’s contents, and made buying our Florida vacation home an unforgettable experience.
Jay made buying my first investment property a breeze!!! He contacted me about the property, we looked at it that morning, and within a few hours after making a very tactful offer, they accepted ours over FOUR other offers. They accepted because Jay had all the agreements and necessary paperwork already signed and ready to go - while the other realtors did not. We closed in 10 days and Jay updated me daily - sometimes 2-3 times per day keeping me posted on everything. He got me a great deal and kept me protected until closing day. I would definitely recommend Jay to anyone!!
We were moving from Ohio to Florida. Having a realtor that was flexible and reliable was so important. Jay was amazing. He found us exactly what we were looking for and in our price range, which is hard to do in Florida. I cannot thank him enough for everything. Highly recommend if anyone is looking in the Cocoa Beach area.
Ellen was far more than just a Realtor throughout our transaction. She served as a trusted advisor, problem solver, confidant, and friend while remaining professional, personable, and completely dedicated to helping us achieve our goals.
Ellen is the most competent and pleasant real estate agent we’ve ever worked with. She consistently gives 100% and is dedicated to delivering exceptional service.
We just closed on our first home with Joe Alexander. He was fantastic throughout the entire process—always available, extremely knowledgeable, and guided us every step of the way. We ended up with the perfect home for our family and would absolutely use Joe again.
Jeff demonstrated professionalism, deep market knowledge, strong communication, and a genuine commitment to helping us succeed. His expertise and negotiation skills helped generate multiple offers quickly, and his integrity and dedication made him someone we would confidently recommend to anyone buying or selling real estate.
We made the mistake of listing with another big-name real estate company for six months and were repeatedly advised to lower our price. We switched to Jeff, who recommended spending about $2,000 rather than reducing the price another $20,000. Five days later, our home sold with multiple offers at full price.
I've told so many friends that we hit a gold mine when we chose Lance to find just the right home for us so we can be close to our daughter in Clearwater and son in Tampa. Lance really gets to know his clients. Before anything else we met for coffee so he could educate himself, not only about what type of property or which city we were interested in, not even just what our interests are, but who we are as people. He's responsive, generous with his time and extremely knowledgeable about construction as well as the real estate market.
Lance and his team were incredible once again! This time they helped me buy a home and close in about two weeks. Every detail was handled flawlessly. Buying a home in a different county than my current residence presented some challenges but The Willard Team and even their referred mortgage and insurance brokers worked fast and impeccably. Selling a condo now and I wouldn’t dream of working with anyone else.
Matt has been an absolute rockstar throughout our entire real estate journey. He helped us find our forever home, expertly sold two of our properties, and even guided my father through selling an estate. His professionalism, dedication, and willingness to go above and beyond have made him our Realtor for life.
Matt is the hardest-working Realtor I’ve ever met. Living out of state, I trusted him completely to oversee repairs, coordinate contractors, and personally step in whenever needed. He truly rolled up his sleeves to get our property sold. World-class service.
Alan is the most professional and hardworking Realtor I’ve ever met. His courage, negotiation skills, and deep market knowledge helped us buy the right home at the right price during one of the toughest markets imaginable. He guided us through every step of buying our first home and made the process seamless.
Alan worked tirelessly to help me sell my home and delivered the best possible outcome. He and his team were incredibly responsive, always available to answer questions, and made the entire experience stress-free. They truly are a dream team.
Buying a home while relocating to Florida felt overwhelming, but Jeff made the process effortless. He listened carefully to our needs, explained every step in detail, and made us feel confident making such a major purchase. His professionalism, organization, and genuine advocacy exceeded every expectation. I recommend Jeff to anyone buying or selling a home.
Jeff got our home a full-price offer within hours of listing it. He personally handled every challenge, marketed the property exceptionally well, and communicated with us throughout the entire process. We couldn’t have asked for a better Realtor.
Client FAQs
No, there is no cost to use our referral service.

In most cases, real estate agents are compensated through a commission based on a percentage of the final sale price of the property, typically ranging from 5% to 6% total, which is often split between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. Commission rates can vary by market and are always discussed and agreed upon before representation begins.

Unlike traditional referral websites with open participation, our agents are hand-selected through a rigorous vetting process to ensure exceptional expertise, professionalism, and consistently outstanding client experiences.
We closely monitor the number of introductions each agent receives to ensure they can properly serve every client.
If an agent’s availability becomes limited, we temporarily pause new introductions and feature another highly recommended local agent until availability returns.
