Examples of Real Estate Agent Testimonials in 2024
Leaving reviews for agents after buying or selling your home is a great gift, second only to referring friends and family.
Agents can take it a step further and do video reviews with their happy clients, easily shareable on social media and YouTube.
Here are some examples of great reviews and testimonials for some of America’s top Realtors.
Real Estate Testimonial Examples
The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group
Our agent was Will, he was very knowledgeable of the current market trends. He was very helpful and straight forward with us on the sale of our home. He even went as far as helping us find a short term rental in the area after we sold our home. He is a professional in every aspect of the real estate business. He would respond quickly if we sent him a text message or called him. Top notch customer service! Would definitely use the Lee Ann Wilkinson Group in the future and have Will as our agent.
Owner’s Response:
Thank you so much for taking the time to write review. We strive “top notch” service with every client and customer and I’m happy that Will hit that mark!
The Sarah Leonard Team
The entire Sarah Leonard team made selling our house a smooth and pleasant experience. They knew exactly what to do at every step of the process and gave us excellent guidance along the way. Specifically our realtor Sharon Bell was extremely helpful and responsive. We could not have been happier working with her! She remained confident when we encountered challenges and always kept us on target. I would highly recommend Sarah Leonard’s group to anyone selling or buying a house. They are the ultimate professionals!
Owner’s Response:
Thank you so much Tim for the kind words on my team! It was a pleasure to work with you! I hope you enjoy your new home in Indiana!
The Schrader Group
I typically do not write a review for anything or anyone, but the outstanding service I received from our Realtor Andrew Cases calls for an exception. Andrew put quality over quantity when it came to helping my family and I secure a home. What I mean by quality is we were not just a “number” to him, he genuinely cared to get to know us and familiarize himself with what we were comfortable with when purchasing a home. An added bonus is that he was prior military, and with us moving overseas from Germany to Texas he was able to relate and make our home purchase that much easier! Andrew was 100% professional at all times, patient with our asks, and knew when to be aggressive in order to get us under contract! He is a valuable asset to your company and we greatly appreciate everything he did for us. Thanks again Andrew!
Owner’s Response:
Hi, Matt. Thanks for your review. Glad to hear you had a great experience with The Schrader Group!
Pam & Barry’s Team
I just recently sold my home with Pam & Barry’s Team. The whole process from beginning to end was very easy and painless. Being the first house we’ve ever sold, I can tell you we had a lot of questions. Destiny, Destiny, Destiny!!!! We never could have gone through this without Destiny with P&B! She was absolutely amazing!! She was extremely quick to respond. If she didn’t know the answer, she’d find out and get back to us immediately! Thank you so much Destiny!!
Owner Response:
Rob- this glowing review of our team and the awesome Destiny means so much to us. We really appreciate you being a client and we are glad to have gotten you taken care of. We know you no longer live in the area, but it was an absolute pleasure having you as our client for so many years. We appreciate you and wish you nothing but the best!
The Yeatman Group
The Yeatman Group was a pleasure to work with! This was our first time building a home and they made the experience fun and as stress free as possible! Even after being in the house already for almost a year, I still see and hear from Kyle and his team, checking in on how we are doing! A great team to work with! – JE
The Boehmer Team
We were recommended the Boehmer Team through family friends, & we couldn’t be more grateful that they became our realtors! Both Kelly & Linda were great about guiding us in the right direction for selling our home, & had the personal touch I was wanting when it came to hiring a realtor. They never gave up & were very much in our corner. Kelly was also always responsive whenever we had questions. Five stars!

Where to Submit Real Estate Reviews
Where is the best place to leave reviews?
It depends on what ecosystem the agent is building their business on. If Facebook is a major marketing pillar, Facebook is probably the ideal review platform.
If they use Zillow to find customers, then Zillow should be the place to review.
If unsure, I recommend the following priority:
- Zillow
- Realtor.com
- Yelp
Or play it safe and get reviews in multiple locations!
Positive online reviews are a tremendous help to any local business (and negative online reviews are a tremendous help to local buyers and sellers).
Tips for Creating Great Real Estate Agent Testimonials
I wrote elsewhere about how to do reviews for clients and agents.
- Grade on a curve. The average Google star count for a local business is 4.42 stars. A 4-star rating might seem positive while still leaving room for improvement. But, typically, that would probably bring your agent’s average down.
- Referrals > Reviews! If you or your client had a great experience buying or selling your home, earning a referral is the # 1-way agents earn business. As an agent, consider being deliberate about earning referrals.
- Write more than a single sentence. Aim for a short paragraph discussing their helpfulness, negotiation skills, expertise, and how they made your home buying or selling experience feel.

The best review tells a story. So dig back to your high school English to tell a compelling narrative, including:
- Attention Grabber. Our Realtor Tony Romo deserves 10 stars!
- Conflict. We were looking for an affordable home in the hot Austin real estate market. We couldn’t find anything for months and our first agent was not very responsive and kept showing us stuff we were not interested in over budget.
- Rising Action. We interviewed three other agents and hired Tony for his local knowledge and attention to detail. We appreciate frequent communication and Tony delivered. He let us know what to expect during the home buying process from start to finish and was very responsive. He listened to our needs and budget, and recommended a lender to compare. It took a while with affordable homes going quickly, but Tony was on top of it the whole time.
- Climax. We made several offers on a few homes and finally had an offer accepted on our third try. He was great to work with and answered every question. We closed in four weeks. It’s our dream home.
- Denouement. We’ve been in our home a week and absolutely love it. I cannot say thank you enough times!
Conclusion
Great reviews earn social capital and serve as a great thank you for your agent.
Agents can return the favor with an old-school thank you card for your clients, too!
