Happy Clients
Working with Thomas Tate was the difference between searching for a house and actually finding the right home for our family.
We started our home search after the birth of our daughter in 2024. Over that time, we worked with several agents who all said the right things about helping us find our dream home, but in the end, it always felt transactional. After countless offers and very little traction, we were exhausted and starting to think we would have to compromise on what we really wanted.
We first met Thomas at an open house in the summer. Ironically, it was a house another agent had sent us to see. What immediately stood out was how honest and reality-based he was about the property and the market. There was no sales pitch, no pressure — just someone who genuinely understood the market and how buyers should navigate it. We spoke briefly that day, and months later when we reached back out after dropping our previous agent, Thomas not only remembered us, but even remembered the offer we had made on that house.
From that point on, the experience completely changed. Thomas went above and beyond on every single offer attempt. In a market where listing prices often feel disconnected from reality, he never pushed us to overpay or panic-buy. His focus was always on helping us get a great home at a price that actually made sense. Every time we submitted an offer, he personally negotiated with the other agents and worked every angle possible.
What impressed me most was his persistence and market awareness. After multiple failed offers, I was beginning to lose confidence and thought we might need to settle for less than we wanted. Thomas never wavered. He watched the market like a hawk. The moment a listing appeared that matched our criteria, we were seeing it the same day and strategically testing the seller’s expectations with offers.
Then finally, we struck gold.
Thomas found us a house that not only checked every box we had, but exceeded our expectations. Even more impressively, he negotiated a deal that resulted in us purchasing the home for 5–10% under local market value — on a property that had plenty of attention from other agents and buyers. As a buyer, it honestly does not get better than that.
Beyond helping us buy our home, Thomas also handled the rental of my condo and had it leased within 3 days to an AAA tenant. His pricing strategy and understanding of the market are exceptional.
The entire process felt like working with someone who genuinely cared about getting us the best outcome, not just closing a transaction. I’m honestly going to miss talking about the housing market with him.
If you’re thinking about using Thomas to guide your home search, stop looking and call him. And if you’re selling or renting your property, trust him on pricing — he absolutely knows what he’s doing.
