Our comment from ImmoNetwork about Homie Real Estate:
A Transparent and Innovative Real Estate Model
Homie Real Estate is revolutionizing the residential property market in Phoenix and the western United States by introducing a hybrid model that combines expert local agents with advanced technology. Their primary mission is to democratize home ownership, making the process easier, more affordable, and accessible to everyone. Unlike traditional agencies that charge high percentage-based commissions, Homie utilizes a flat-fee model that allows sellers to retain significantly more of their financial gains. This transparency in pricing means clients know exactly what they will pay upfront, avoiding the hidden costs often associated with conventional real estate transactions.
Exceptional Client Support and Expertise
What truly distinguishes Homie is the dedication and professionalism of its agents. Clients consistently praise agents like Jessee Hagans, Heather Morales, Carole Hewitt, and Tyler Faoro for their in-depth knowledge, responsiveness, and personalized care. Whether navigating a complex sale or searching for a first home, these agents provide guidance that feels more like a collaboration with a friend than a standard business transaction. Many reviews highlight how agents go above and beyond, offering advice on staging, handling unexpected inspection issues calmly, and even assisting with logistical challenges like moving or lockouts. This human touch ensures that clients feel supported and confident throughout every step.
Financial Savings and Buyer Incentives
The financial benefits of choosing Homie are a major highlight for users. Sellers frequently report saving thousands of dollars in commissions compared to traditional agencies, with some noting savings of over $15,000 on a single transaction. For buyers, Homie offers an attractive value proposition that includes buyer rebates, which can cover closing costs or reduce the overall price of the home. When combined with Homie’s integrated loan services and title company, clients often find themselves with favorable rates and additional financial perks, such as $5,000 in rebates for using their preferred lenders. This comprehensive approach ensures that every dollar is optimized for the client’s benefit.
Efficiency, Speed, and Stress-Free Process
Homie has streamlined the buying and selling process to be as efficient and stress-free as possible. Their intuitive online portal allows clients to manage listings, schedule showings, and communicate with their team easily. This efficiency often results in homes selling quickly, sometimes within days, with multiple offers securing the best possible price. The integration of partners for inspections, appraisals, and financing creates a one-stop-shop experience that minimizes paperwork and reduces the burden on the client. Clients consistently describe the experience as smooth, transparent, and far less stressful than traditional methods, making Homie a top choice for families looking to make smart, secure real estate decisions.

Fantastic experience: We’ve used Jessee with Homie in the past and he has always been great. Since he is no longer with Homie, he referred us to Carole there and she was great. She ended up selling our house for more than we expected and she was awesome throughout the process, even while the buyers agent was a pain.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Heather Morales! It's always a pleasure when you get to work with a friend who is also a fellow agent. Easy peasy to work with and a collaborative colleague.
Fantastic experience: Heather was absolutely fantastic to work with! She made the entire process smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Her knowledge, professionalism, and responsiveness were top-notch, and she always had our best interests in mind. Heather made everything simple and easy to understand, which we truly appreciated. I would highly recommend her and the entire Homie team to anyone buying or selling a home in Arizona. They exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Five stars all the way!
Fantastic experience: Jessee was awesome and made the selling process much easier than what we were expecting. Would use Homie again without hesitation.
Fantastic experience: Second time selling with Homie. Jessee was our most recent agent and was extremely helpful, answered all of our questions, and communication was always great.
Fantastic experience: Heather was great to work with. She was very knowledgeable, courteous and professional. When we ran into a couple of issues with inspection items, she was very calming and helped me through it. I would strongly recommend Heather and am planning to use her again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Kirk is amazing to work with - he is prompt in his response, knowledgeable about the houses he shows, and always willing to help beyond the home buying process. If you’re looking for a strong, not pushy, incredibly insightful realtor, Kirk is your person!
Fantastic experience: Jessie Hagans was the best realtor I’ve ever worked with. He helped me sell my home for the most money in the quickest time.
Fantastic experience: Jessee Hagans was our realtor when working with Homie. We used Homie for our first home purchase in 2020, and for our first home sale for this August of 2023. He was amazing! Jessee is very knowledgable, professional, kind, patient, and quick to respond to any form of contact used. I would recommend him again and again to friends and family. He was the best! Thank you Jessee for all your hard work!
Fantastic experience: The extra work I did in lou of a personal realtor was worth the savings, even when I needed help or had questions Heather was always available and extremely helpful. I will use Homie again whenever I have the chance.
Fantastic experience: We've sold 2 homes with Homie in Arizona, and both times the process has been a smooth and great experience. Jessee was great to work with and helped us every step of the way, and was understanding of our requirements as we sold our home. If I ever sell a home again, Homie will without a doubt be who I use.
Fantastic experience: Carole Hewitt did an excellent job.I would highly recommend Homie's.
Negative experience: I feel like I will always have what ifs and regrets for using homie when we sold our house in Phoenix end of December . Long gone are the days of this company being worth it with reduced listing percentages. In this market you need an experienced agent homie provides incredibly incompetent agents. I spent many hours doing his job for him going back and forth from the home inspection to the agent telling him what to say and even providing line numbers from the inspection because he couldn’t figure it out himself. When the deal almost fell through on the last day before closing my wife and I had to personally contact the buyers agent and buyers to close the deal ourselves. Please, don’t live with what ifs like we do . Find an experienced agent elsewhere it is worth the extra percentage .
Fantastic experience: I was very pleased with my experience with Homie. The fixed expense contract was easy to understand, I knew exactly what I was going to pay upon sale and the cancelation fee was more than reasonable. My agent Carole, was always responsive, provided answers to all my questions and provided good advise on offers. I was very pleased with Carole and would highly recommend her as a Seller Agent at Homie. My sale was also closed with Homie Title at a discount price with a positive experience.
Fantastic experience: The best way to sell your home if you are not a newbie & understand how to stage a home to sell. We didn't need a full service agent & we new that because our home was completely remodeled & staged to look Instagram worthy in the photos, the house would sell itself so paying 6% commission to a typical agent didn't make sense. Carol at Homie was absolutely amazing & went way above what we were expecting. Carol worked weekends and evenings to answer our questions and deal with our buyers who were not the most fun to deal with. Thank you Homie for saving us $15,000 on selling our home!
Fantastic experience: Always ready to answer the phone and help with absolutely any issue. All at Homie we’re willing to be available and work with you, dealing with numerous complex issues in the best way possible. Incredibly impressed with everything Homie. Love the business model and great service. I only experienced excellent service throughout all aspects of the sale and purchase working with three great team members. Seller agent Daryl was brilliant in his listening skills and wisdom, showing agent Elizabeth was ready and so on top of the needs of what we needed in a house, Elizabeth was patient and excited for us at each stage. Buyer agent Michael was great with his communication and dedication, always on top of what was needed at the moment. Michael is one of the best realtors a buyer could possibly ask for.
Fantastic experience: Awesome process from start to finish, knew exactly what was going on and how the sale of our house would impact us financially at all times. Would 10/10 recommend and would do it again! Jennifer was great, never hesitated to call or text me back and was always delightful to deal with even though I am unbearable at times! We had 25 showings and 12 offers in 4 days, and ended up selling our home in 4 weeks with Homie! We saved over $15000 in fees compared to the alternative and are now set up well to start our military life with the US Navy. Thank you Homie and Jennifer!
Fantastic experience: From start to finish this was a great experience! The realtor Jessee Hagans always quick, on time and happy to show me houses, Brian Sniadanko effective with the home negotiation and guiding me with the process, and Seth Christensen in financing clearly explained the numbers and what exactly they were contributing towards my closing. They all had great communication with any questions I had and to make sure everyone was on the same page with any changes or decisions. Homie has made it a one stop shop with the partners they work with for inspections, appraisals etc which was less work and easy for me.
Fantastic experience: We had the best experience with Homie as first time home buyers. Our agent, Jessee, was so patient and knowledgable! He was always available and worked around our very busy schedule to get us in to tour as quickly as possible since many houses were receiving offers the same day they were listed! Once we moved to the buying process, Brian S. was amazing! Multiple offers were put in on the house we wanted and Brian gave us advice and ideas to make our offer stand out! We got the house without going out of our budget thanks to his expertise! We also used homie loans and loved working with Austin! We were definitely not the easiest to work with and went back and forth on which lender to use. Austin was always available to explain things (we had tons of questions!) in a way that was easy to understand and so great to work with! We chose to go with Homie based on the customer service! We made a mistake at one point in the process and Austin and Brian were so helpful and went above and beyond to help us get it fixed, even though the error was on our end! I could not recommend homie more! You get all the knowledge and expertise (probably more than average) of a realtor without the fees! I will never buy or sell a house without Homie!
Fantastic experience: We moved to Arizona during COVID-19. It was a crazy time to buy our first home but Homie made it a great experience. Our agent always responded quickly when we had any questions. Our agent and his team always moved quickly when we inquired about any homes and especially when a new listing was available. The virtual walk-throughs were always to our satisfaction. There was no pressure to buy and we always felt like Homie was focused on making our experience great. Homie explained to us that they provide a buyers refund of $2,500 if you get a quote from Homie Loans and $5,000 if you actually use Homie Loans to buy a house. We got a quote and it beat our other quote from Rocket Mortgage (Quicken Loans) so we went with Homie Loans. We were a bit nervous about the refund because it was not showing up on any of the loan documents while we went through the closing process. Homie Loans reassured us that it would appear only at the closing table with the title company. We were happy to see $5,000 added to our closing costs when we signed those closing documents. We were probably just a little too over cautious on that refund. We truly had a great experience using Homie and that $5,000 was so nice! We are always going to use Homie!
Fantastic experience: Initially I was nervous about using a non traditional realtor to sell our house but after seeing how much we were going to save off of realtor fees it seemed worth the risk. The online portal I used to fill out all of the information and get it all set up was easy to navigate and made the process pretty easy. The realtor that was helping us even went above and beyond by coming over to help us install a new door lock when another realtor pulled it too hard when trying to get the lockbox open. I would recommend Homie to everyone and would definitely use them again. Can’t beat the service and especially how much I saved versus a typical realtor experience.
Fantastic experience: Selling our home with Homie was the best choice we ever made. We were under a very tight timeline to sell quickly and the Homie team was responsive and friendly. Their process is simple, saves money, and is a game changer in the real estate industry. When we have the opportunity we will definitely use Homie again!
Fantastic experience: My family lived in Arizona for a year prior to deciding on where we wanted to live. When it finally came time to make that decision, I researched the options that would give us the best value but not lack on the services where we were sure to need assistance. Homie was our choice! Glad we went down this path. Even during the craziness of COVID-19, we were able to buy a house in the AZ market that we found to be a good fit. We worked with a team that was casual in all the good ways (no pressure) but professional in all of the others (answered every question that was asked and gave experienced advise). We sold our previous home with Homie as well and had an equally-good experience.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Homie. It was my first time buying and they were really helpful, answering all of my questions. We were able to get in to see listings the same day they were posted and I got the best rate on my loan from the banks I compared too, plus the money back on closing costs were a plus!
Fantastic experience: We had a great experience selling with Homie. There was a hitch with the photographer and they made it right. Saved a ton versus a traditional realtor, and still sold our house in a matter of days. Never want to move again, but if we do, we'll use Homie again.
Positive experience: Saved a ton of money. However, I would have liked a little more interface with the agent handling our sale. He never had any helpful advice or recommendations to strategy questions. He never visited our house either.
Fantastic experience: I just refinanced with Homie Loans. I got a few quotes and Homie was way lower than my other options. Homie was $2,000 lower in closing costs compared to Quicken Loans and the rate was 0.4% lower! That saves me thousands of dollars.
Fantastic experience: Quick and easy. Saved Thousand on reality feed, and still sold my home fast. All done virtually with agent, but no lack of communication.
Fantastic experience: Sold our home with Homie. Had multiple offers the month we listed. Service was top notch and extremely pleased with the entire process.
Fantastic experience: In the traditionally complicated and often stressful process of finding and buying a home, Homie made it easy! And saved me a bunch of money too!
Fantastic experience: The process and communication was excellent!
Fantastic experience: We had a great experience buying a home with Homie agent Tyler Faroro in Sun City West. His market knowledge and advice was a huge factor in finding our new home in this tight market. Tyler is hard working and was always available, even on weekends and evenings, to show us homes, answer our questions and find us the homes to look at. We highly recommend using Tyler Faroro for your next home purchase.
Fantastic experience: This was the third home I have sold, and by far, the easiest! Working with Homie was a no-brainer, the process was simple and straight-forward, the Agent was awesome, the professional pics were great, and we saved over $14,000! Like I said, it was a No-Brainer! I would work with them again for any real estate needs. The days of the "traditional" Real Estate Listing Agents are - like the dinosaurs - Extinct!
Fantastic experience: My parents sold their house on the same-day they listed it via Homie and recommended them to me for my first purchase, since the Homie family of companies could handle every step of the process (and I knew very little about the process and didn’t want the hassle of figuring out every intermediate step in an accelerating market). I had been looking into the building Homie eventually helped me purchase a unit in for a couple of years, and when a unit with a floor-plan and kitchen I liked showed up on the market, I downloaded the app and requested a showing. The only issue I experienced was at the beginning — I used the hidden email feature of iOS when creating my account through the app. I’m a developer myself, so I do not hold issues like this against anyone except maybe Apple; the issue may have since been resolved, but the problem was that some of the domains used by the Homie family of companies could not send emails to this special iCloud email address, and we had to change my email once we discovered the problem. Everything after this initial hitch went . . . without any more hitches. :) My buyer’s agent, Brian Sniadanko, and showing agent, Tyler Faoro (BMX racing professional!), were very friendly and got the process going very quickly after I was pleased with the initial tour of the property. Everything these agents helped me with went very well: initial offer, counter-offer, inspection, follow-up inspection with specialist, BINSR, final walk-through, closing via mobile notary, and key exchange. I also used Homie Loans and my friendly loan officer, Matthew Catmull, made the loan process incredibly easy, too! Initial pre-approval went quickly and the actual approval itself was no more complicated — basically, the process from my end only consisted of uploading requested documents (and explaining a monthly iCloud storage payment, because Apple’s gotta try to make everything complicated) and e-signing documents. Simple! To summarize (if I don’t cut this review short, I’d end up with a novella), I used as many Homie companies as I could — including Homie Title and Homie Insurance, too! Everything was straightforward. Everyone was very friendly and easy-going. Today, I got the keys to the property I’ve wanted for a while. Thanks again to Tyler, Brian, Matt, Reinaldo, and the rest of the Homie team!
Fantastic experience: Batya Cruz was the agent assigned to handle the listing and sale of my home in Lakewood, CO. She was absolutely the best. I would highly recommend her personally, and Homie as a company to anyone looking to sell their home. It was so easy and efficient.
Fantastic experience: Tyler Faoro, our agent, was absolutely amazing! He quickly identified what we are looking for in a home and was able to help guide us through the process. He made himself available, even after hours when needed, and was very responsive. Purchasing a home while living in another state was a challenge, but he graciously provided videos and even live walk through whenever this was requested. Could not have done it without such professional and quality help from Tyler!
Fantastic experience: It was prefect getting homie to help our family sell our home and buy our new forever family home.i especially need to give a shout-out to our realtor Tyler Faoro. He is the most understanding... patient... hardworking person.he did very well for our family no matter the ups or downs that comes with buying a home.he took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and needed in and for our home. I highly recommend him to help you.
Fantastic experience: We just sold a home with Daryl Snow at Homie. It was a great experience and sold within days of the listing going live - when the first buyer changed their mind Daryl had 2 others in negotiations! Great Experience.
Fantastic experience: We are in love with Homie! We saved approximately $13K by selling through Homie. It was amazing how quickly (48 hrs) we were under contract. Can't imagine ever selling any other way!
Fantastic experience: Great people!
Fantastic experience: In 2020, we sold one home, purchased another while taking advantage of Homie Loans as well. We can only speak for our own situation, but our experiences were smooth sailing and we enjoyed the saving benefits that Homie offers. Wayne was fantastic on the sell side, and Kirk and Michael were exceptional and patient with us on the buy side for our new home. If we were to sell or buy again today, we'd definitely start by reaching out to Homie before looking elsewhere.
Fantastic experience: Jessee with homie went above and beyond any realtor I have ever used. My family and friends were amazed and how helpful he was. He always answered my calls and if he was with another client he called me right back. I felt like he always had my best interest in mind and was extremely knowledgeable about everything from bugs to structures. He took the time to explain about things about each property from termites and scorpions, to how something could erode or pool surfaces. He always had a connection if I needed something done and really made this process go smoothly. We looked at tons of houses and we were getting stressed because we weren’t able to find what we wanted and I asked him to look at a few that he thinks we would like. Jessee found us our home the next morning and it’s perfect. This was hands down the best buying experience I have ever had and I hope Homie takes care of that guy because they can’t afford to lose him. I decided not to go with a friend to buy a house and get someone I didn’t know but Jessee became a friend through this. My moving company bailed on me at the last minute and he went to his car and put on a change of clothes and helped me move into my house for 6 hours, he wouldn’t take no for an answer. Jessee you’re the man! Arizona will adopt Homie if mike and Jessee keep at it.
Fantastic experience: I could not have been any happier with my overall experience with Homie - including the people and the process. I have sold quite a few houses in my lifetime, and this was by far the most profitable ever! My son previously used Homie and told me about his great experience and referred me to Carole (who is a real estate rock star). Carole helped me every step along the way and far exceeded my expectations. Going forward, I can’t see myself ever selling another house and not use Homie!
Fantastic experience: Homie was the best buying experience ever, especially thanks to our agent Tyler Faoro! This was the first home buying experience for me and my fiancé, and Tyler helped us with every step! He was always available for us to text at anytime of the day or week, and he worked so hard to schedule viewings and find new listings for us! He was so professional and knowledgeable about all the little details of real estate. Even during this crazy Phoenix market, he stayed optimistic and hopeful that we would find a home. So glad that we got to work with home and with Tyler and I would recommend him to literally everyone I know! 10/10!!!
Fantastic experience: We recently sold our house with Homie and recommend listing with the company! We found the process and tools helped to guide us in setting up the listing and scheduling showings. Our realtor Carole was responsive and answered our many questions. She even came to our rescue one evening when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the house after a showing! We listed the home at the same price a "traditional" realtor would have listed. In today's market we had multiple offers over asking price and closed within a month with no contingencies. We saved $18,000 in fees by listing with Homie!
Fantastic experience: As a first-time buyer in a seller’s market, I approached starting the process with dread. Deciding to start with one home, I put in a request to see it and Tyler Faoro with Homie responded. While that first place didn’t work out, Tyler quickly convinced me to keep working with him due to his professionalism. Tyler remained fantastic to work with during the entire process. He was quick to respond and flexible in working with my schedule. Tyler was patient and positive as I figured out what I truly wanted in a home and he helped by pointing out things that I wouldn’t have thought of on my own. He guided me through all the paperwork and taught me how to make the best offer. Tyler also connected me with Homie loans and a rebate that covered my closing costs! Most importantly, he never pressured me to put an offer on a home that I didn’t love. I would absolutely recommend working with Tyler and Homie! I would not be in my new, wonderful home without him!
Fantastic experience: Carole Hewitt and Homie are first class! It was a long road, but so thankful to have Carole’s help along the way in selling my house. Appreciated the assist from Dorrie Sauerzopf as well. If you are looking to sell your house in Arizona, I highly recommend Carole and Homie! Homie is efficient and provides you with the right balance of control and ease all with a qualified real estate agent by your side. Extremely cost effective as a seller as well. Look no further! I plan on using Homie and hopefully Carole again in the future. Thanks again Carole! You’re awesome!
Fantastic experience: Heather was so fantastic to work with. She walked us through the process and educated us on the market. My home sold in seven days on only my third showing. Heather has the magic touch and she saved me tons on commission too . I don’t understand why more people aren’t using Homie to sell or buy. Thank you for everything Heather you are the best!
Fantastic experience: We just closed on our home, with the assistance of our realtor, Heather Morales. Heather helped us every step of the way and worked very hard to keep the transaction together. We love saving money with Homie! We have used Homie in the past and were also very satisfied with Homie.
Fantastic experience: Tyler Faoro was very easy to work with, he was always available to answer our questions. I highly recommend him to anyone who doesn't understand the home buying process, Taylor will explain it to you very clearly, he will never pressure to make an offer until you are ready, if you want someone in your corner looking out for you best interest Tayler is the realtor you need. He even went out to another county (an hour away) with us to find the perfect house and he guided us through the construction, dealing with the builder and he helped us during the walk-through. Thank you Tayler we couldn't be happier.
Fantastic experience: I liked the transparent pricing and customer friendly web interface. My realtor did a great job of communicating throughout the process. Overall, I had a positive experience and would definitely consider using Homie again
Fantastic experience: I worked with Tyler Faoro on the purchase of my new home. Tyler is great, but don't take my work for it, call Homie and ask for Tyler and you will see just how nice, responsive and collaborative your next real estate agent can be.
Fantastic experience: Tyler was great to work with. He was always available and was extremely knowledgeable about the entire process. I have already referred Tyler to friends and a few neighbors.
Fantastic experience: Was an easy and smooth experience. Kirk was an awesome realtor!
Positive experience: Looks like a good idea but home I saw with a sign in my neighborhood was not on the site. Not a good way to advertise.
Negative experience: Straight fraud
