He took the time to understand my needs and provided clear, honest advice at every step. His expertise and dedication truly set him apart. The team's marketing efforts were top-notch. The professional photos and virtual tour showcased my home beautifully, attracting a significant number of potential buyers. Their proactive approach ensured that my home received maximum exposure, leading to multiple offers within just a few days of listing. Throughout the negotiation process, Bob was a master. He handled everything with the utmost professionalism, always keeping my best interests at heart. His excellent communication skills and timely updates kept me informed and confident throughout the entire process. What truly stood out was the personalized attention and care that Bob and his team provided. They were always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transaction.

He prepared us for the photo shoot by letting us know what should and should not be included in the photos. He also guided us through the inspection process in a way that made it stress free.

"I have personally used Bob Bakas twice."

"The first time was selling our home. We had been with another Real Estate company and agent. It was a nightmare!! Once we were able to get out of the contract, we immediately met with Bob as he was recommended by a friend that sold through Bob several times before. Bob's professional, knowledgeable demeanor along with his confidence impressed me. Once we listed, we had showings immediately in contrast to the 2 showings in 4 months with the other agent. Our house sold in a few weeks. Bob held our hand the whole way and always had our best interest at heart. The second time was when we needed to sell my father's house, Bob was the first and only person I thought of. Bob was patient with my elderly father and made sure he was comfortable every step of the way. His house sold fast and Bob negotiated well for us. My daughter had also recommended him to a friend who had been trying to sell her home and had a nightmare with her realtor. Like us when selling our home, she waited for the contract to run out and met with Bob. She was so impressed by the level of communication and commitment by Bob and his team but, what impressed her the most was when the home she was in that hadn't been shown with her previous agent was sold in just a few weeks by Bob. I cannot think of enough positives about Bob and his team!! Selling a home is difficult, emotional and overwhelming. When you work with a professional like Bob and Megan his office manager who keeps everything moving forward, it's really easy!”

- Kathy M.

"Bob is absolutely wonderful to work with."

"It’s like having a friend on the “inside” that is working for you. He knew what I was looking for and did not make me waste time on offers not relevant. He is also very creative. I would recommend him to whoever is looking to buy or sell a home.”

- Julie & Terry R.

"Tina is amazing!!"

"She helped me out with all my questions immediately. Whenever we saw a house she knew everything about it and was extremely helpful. Even when we were out looking for houses and a new house came up she would schedule a viewing within minutes and we went to go see it. I couldn't have had a better agent and I am beyond happy with my choice. Tina is a Rockstar and I'll definitely be using her for all my Realtor needs.”

- Ethan S.

"Tina is the best in the business."

"She always kept us informed about homes that were "coming soon" on the market. What I love most is she makes me feel like I’m her only client (even though I know she has a lot). She responds to my messages promptly at all hours of the day. She's efficient, organized, and calm. She gives great advice - I always felt she had my best interest as a buyer and seller at the forefront. With Tina's help, our home was under contract after 5 days. She then helped us find our forever home in less than a week in this crazy market! I would recommend Tina to anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home.”

-Bill J.

"He’s extremely professional, savvy, and honest"

"Since I was in the market to (hopefully) purchase a home, I was referred to Bob Bakas from a good friend of mine, who had only excellent things to say about him. Even in one of the worst housing markets in decades, Bob was instrumental in helping me purchase my dream home. I am just thrilled!!! I highly recommend Bob if you’re looking to purchase a home, especially in this challenging market. He’s extremely professional, savvy, and honest. He promptly responded to every question and text message I had. If he didn’t have the answer, he would look into the matter and quickly get back to me.

Thanks, Bob :)"

When our house sold, they again did all the work. I was never stressed! I knew if anything came up, they would handle it. We really appreciate everything Bob and his team did for us. Thank you!"
