Testimonials

Jeff was extremely easy to talk to and was very relatable. He really helped in the decision making on how we should sell our house. Without Jeff's advice and help we would have missed out on tens of thousands of dollars on the sale of our house. Going into the sale, we did not think we would come close to the listed price he had suggested. We trusted Jeff and we are certainly thankful for that!! Whenever we had questions both he and his very awesome staff (they did A LOT of behind the scenes work for us) got back very quickly and with terrific attitudes. He and his staff helped facilitate the paperwork in a quick easy way. Considering our family, like so many, have two people working and two very active children, we just do not have a lot of free time. The last thing we wanted to do was work on paperwork that we did not really understand. Jeff and his staff on both the buying and selling truly made it a simple and easy process. We would work with Jeff in a heartbeat. If any of our friends were to buy or sell he would be the person we would encourage them to work with.

Jeff is an outstanding realtor. He helped us orient ourselves in Bloomington and helped us to negotiate the purchase of a home. He was especially good with challenging sales and tight time windows. When we chose to move, he was our first choice as a realtor and helped us through a rapid sale process. Thanks, Jeff!

Jeff sold our townhome very quickly and was a great go between the buyers and us. I also locked myself out of our house during the selling process, and his office helped us get back in with the key they had. Highly recommend!

We had the best experience with Jeff. He’s knowledgeable, experienced, patient, personable, diligent and professional. The road to homeownership is never straight. This fact illuminates Jeff’s best strength- his positive attitude and caring encouragement. Being empty nesters, we’ve purchased homes and businesses before, but never have we encountered a realtor who is as realistically positive and encouraging in just the way we needed. Jeff represented us from beginning to end, selling our home and getting us into a new home that’s perfect for us.

Very knowledgeable about the market and every aspect of purchasing and selling a home. Fantastic to work with. I would gladly work with Jeff and his team again.

We have purchased 2 homes and sold 1 through Jeff. I think the most important thing to know is that Jeff doesn't just help with the process of listing and buying homes, but he has an amazing network of quality service providers that he can recommend that can assist in helping you prep your house for sale or make updates and repairs to homes you purchase.

Jeff and his staff are wonderful. They work well together to ensure that clients are well informed and on top of every aspect of the transaction. Jeff is extremely knowledgeable and an excellent listener. I especially appreciate his transparency and candidness. I think these qualities serve him well in his relationships with his clients and also foster positive relationships with other realtors. The trust him and that is a major asset when he is on your team.

Jeff Franklin is the realtor, of all realtors. I was fortunate to purchase and then sell my home, under his guidance. There is no one I'd rather work with in the process of buying or selling, as his energy, positivity, and ability to listen and make recommendations is unparalleled.

Jeff listened to our unique needs and bucket-list of desires and was able to aid us in finding a great home. As new transplants to the area Jeff was extremely responsive and spent time helping us understand the Bloomington market. He kept the experience efficient, upbeat, and lot's of fun.

Jeff was there every step of the way throughout my home-buying experience. Several times, he went above and beyond. I live outside of the Bloomington area, and Jeff did some “extra” things for me because I could not be there. I completely trusted him because he took the time to get to know me, my likes and dislikes and knew he would respond to things accordingly! Jeff always takes the time I need to respond to my questions and concerns...he is truly the best!

Jeff is an excellent realtor. He is very knowledgeable as far as the real estate market. He answered all our questions and took care of any problems in a timely and professional manner.

Jeff and his associates were active in getting activity into our house. We had numerous showings. They were helpful and attentive to the needs of the seller.

Jeff is outstanding. He is methodical and understands the needs of the client. We were completely at ease as we knew that he would take care of us. We very strongly recommend him.

Jeff has great local market knowledge which led to him recommending when to put our home on the market and how to price it. Additionally, Jeff has an extensive set of contacts. The combination of each of these factors were instrumental in getting our house sold in 1 day!

A Jeff is absolutely fantastic. We have worked with him a few times and each situation had its own set of complications. Jeff handled each one with confidence, patience and, above all, tremendous expertise. His experience in the Bloomington area market is so vast, we rely on him fully, and highly recommend him.

Jeff and his team were great to work with, so friendly & knowledgeable. Took amazing photos of house, kept us informed of sale process and calmed our anxieties.

Jeff came highly recommended and lived up to the praise! He and his staff helped with every step of our home search and purchase, and Jeff made it a lot of fun. We really appreciated the response communication and Jeff's wealth of knowledge about Bloomington.

Jeff has extensive knowledge about all areas and neighborhoods in Bloomington. If you are new to the area, Jeff is the realtor to use. He will artfully assist you in finding the perfect home in the perfect area in the community. Jeff is plugged into all the cultural opportunities and can help buyers new to town become quickly comfortable with all that Bloomington offers. Jeff sold our home in Elm Heights that we had restored. He expertly represented all the updates we made to the home in his print and online media. Jeff was able to get us a very strong buyer and offer. His staff is very responsive and made our selling process go very smoothly. Excellent experience from a true real estate professional!

Very knowledgeable, timely, confident and hard working. We were so pleased with Jeff and his team! We had a great experience and would definitely recommend Jeff!

Jeff was an absolute joy to work with while looking for our new home! He listened to what we needed and helped us find the perfect area of town to live in as well as helping immensely with the negotiations. I would highly recommend Jeff and his staff to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Jeff knows houses—and the real estate biz—backwards and forwards. He spent so much time with me as I looked for my Dream Home. It took several years, but thanks to him and his wonderful staff I found the home that ticked all the boxes for me and got thru the buying process in good order. As an added bonus he’s a good hearted guy and just plain fun to be around.

Jeff is a true professional and the only one I would trust to sell my house. I highly recommend working with him! As a buyer or seller, he will listen to what you want and help you accomplish your real estate goals.

This is the 2nd time I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jeff Franklin. His wisdom, guidance, and persistence got us into a wonderful home and neighborhood! We couldn’t be more grateful to Jeff for his creative listening skills, and thoughtful attention to our requests for a new home. He knew just what we were looking for, and kept us motivated, even when we thought homeownership was looking like an impossibility. He is an incredibly positive professional - and he keeps your goals in focus. He found us the perfect place. We would recommend Jeff to everyone!

Jeff sold our house for us and did so very quickly (before it was even listed) and for more than we expected. He knows the local market better than anyone and has many connections to find properties and buyers quickly. We enjoyed working with him and will definitely use him again!

Jeff is amazing! He is attentive, knowledgeable, and somehow made the whole harrowing experience of buying our first home fun. Once he got know us he also introduced us to some of our new nieghbors who have become some of our dearest friends. Jeff really knows how to maneuver through the Bloomington market and couldn’t have been more in our corner through the whole experience.

Jeff and his team helped us to get the sale! From marketing to negotiation after the inspection, everything was handled in a professional and friendly manner.

Jeff was terrific! He spend a great deal of time with my family, first showing around Bloomington and then showing us different types of houses in a variety of neighborhoods. He really got to know our family and what we were looking for and found the perfect home for us. From start to finish Jeff and his staff were responsive and extremely helpful.

Jeff was knowledgable and helpful about Bloomington real estate as well as the legal side of a real estate transaction. He was quick to respond to inquiries, and he was very professional and friendly. We felt confident and comfortable working with him. He personally handled the open houses at our home, and we ended up selling to one of the open house attendees, so he clearly did a great job. My wife and I shopped four different real estate agents before selecting Jeff, and his advertising materials (printed and video) were by far the most visually appealing. Go with Jeff!

After trying to sell in a previous year with a different realtor, we took Jeff on a recommendation from someone with long experience in town. Jeff has worked in Bloomington for many years, and understood our situation very well. We had an unusual home that we loved; older, classic style, in a prime location near the center of Bloomington. Jeff and his team put in a lot of work to find a buyer who wanted it as much as we did when we first came to town. His marketing was wonderful, and got us a lot of interest. We were thrilled to have the support of his staff, who were always available on e-mail, or by phone. Whenever there was any issue, Jeff was on text to us, weekend or not, and helped us to grab the opportunity. In terms of preparing the house and grounds, Jeff gave us the advice we needed to make the best impression, and worked with us to get the right price. We're very pleased to have worked with him and his staff, and would recommend without hesitation to friends and colleagues within the Bloomington area.

Jeff was the listing agent when I sold my home. He was personable and professional and has a great team in Sara and Catherine. He did an outstanding job from beginning to end and I highly recommend him.

We received four offers on our home in three weeks! Jeff knows the market and how to position the house. He did not waste our time with lookers. Only serious buyers toured our home. Jeff is the best realtor we have dealt with in 50 years!

Jeff and his team were wonderful to work with and went above and beyond to help me locate and secure a new home from out of state. They've helped me with great references for plumbing, electricians, painting, and repairs to get settled into my new home.

Jeff was excellent in every way. He was thoroughly professional. He always responded quickly to calls or emails. Has an excellent knowledge of market trends in Bloomington as well as the housing stock. He made the whole process of selling smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone buying or selling in Bloomington.

Jeff gave us great service during our selling process. He was always highly professional, and his communication skills were excellent. He always gave us good feedback after each showing. Jeff has an excellent office supporting him, so even if he is tied up with a client or in a closing, his staff gets back to you immediately. I recommend Jeff highly and thoroughly enjoyed working with him.

Jeff and his team were a pleasure to work with, they were always available to answer questions and made the selling process as stress-free as possible.

Jeff recently helped my husband and I purchase a new home, and sell a home that I have lived in for many years. He has excellent judgement, and is able to understand the tastes and needs of his clients. Jeff always remains positive and injects a genuine personal quality to his business dealings and relationships. He has a broad and deep knowledge of the market and is a first-class negotiator. I would recommend him very highly to anyone in the market to buy or sell a home!

Jeff is incredibly professional, knowledgeable about Bloomington real estate, and generally fun and easy to work with. We used Jeff to sell our house and had a very positive and quick sale. We also loved working with Jeff's helpful and responsive team. Thank you so much, Jeff Franklin Team!

Jeff and Kelly are beyond amazing! They are incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and committed throughout the entire process. I will undoubtedly continue to work with Jeff and his team regarding any and all future real estate needs.

Jeff is wonderful - he is extremely knowledgeable and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. What we like most about Jeff, though, is that he is very honest and truly has your best interest at heart. Jeff is, by very far, the best Realtor we have ever worked with - we give him our highest recommendation!

I am delighted to recommend Jeff Franklin! We have been working with Jeff to sell TWO homes owned by our family and we have had a fantastic experience! Jeff is very knowledgeable. He is meticulous in his paperwork and negotiations and has great communication skills. When I first met Jeff, I felt as if I had known him for years! I completely trust his judgement and have appreciated his honesty. I have always felt that Jeff had our best interests at heart. Jeff's staff is also great; they are very efficient and responsive and really work hard to make the process stress-free. I have nothing but good things to say!

Jeff is truly amazing! My husband and I were new to Bloomington and looking for our first home. Jeff guided us through the home buying process and was with us every step of the way. We spent over 8 months looking for houses in the area and getting to know what we liked and didn't like. Jeff knew all the neighborhoods, builders, schools, etc. We trusted Jeff every step of the way and we're never disappointed! We truly can't thank him enough for helping us find and secure our dream home! Jeff truly puts his heart into each and every client and will always take the time to meet or answer questions. Catherine and Kelly who work with Jeff were also incredibly helpful and quick to respond to our questions and concerns. He had our back the whole way through and we will absolutely come to him when we sell and buy our next home! We truly can't thank him enough and would highly recommend to anyone!

Jeff and his team came as a recommendation to us and we have been thrilled with the experience we've had! They found a new house for us and are in the process of listing our old house. They are positive, friendly, helpful, and knowledgable about every part of the process. Very responsive and great to work with! I would highly recommend Jeff if you're in the market to buy or sell a home in Bloomington!!

Jeff made our home buying experience a breeze. Very helpful, very professional. His entire team is amazing. We particularly appreciated not being rushed or overwhelmed with inadequate listing suggestions. Strongly recommended.
