Fantastic experience: My sister and I had to sell our childhood home of 50 years, and Rob and his team were with us every step of the way. They not only performed to the highest level of commitment I've ever experienced in selling a house, they also took the time to hear our concerns and emotional ties to the house. We were truly blessed to have them as our team in this process. Thank you Rob Brooks Realty!
Thank you Stephen! You have a truly special family which is a testimony what great people your mom and dad were. Of course you know that better than anybody, having grown up with them as parents in that house!
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks is exceptional! He was my realtor in selling my family’s home. Within 48 hours of placing the house on the market, we received an offer on the house. Rob was very knowledgeable in pricing the house for the area and the market. When I first met with him, he already had a strategic plan in place for selling the house. I was impressed! Rob is very professional in how he handles all areas of business. I was proud to have him as my realtor. He is also very eloquent and patient in explaining the ropes of buying/selling to those of us who are unfamiliar with the terrain. Additionally, my interactions with his team were exceptional. Their communication with me exceeded my expectations. In the future, I will not hesitate to contact Rob again, whether I’m buying or selling a house. If you’re considering Rob Brooks, I highly recommend him. I will also say, I have had other experiences with realtors many years ago, but my experience with Rob Brooks and his team tops the charts!
Sandra, your thought out comments make my day! This industry is hard work and even with the best professional efforts, not everything turns out perfect. When you as a client show appreciation it makes all the difficulties worth it! Glad to work with you and your brother! May our Father bless both of you and your families!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Rob and his team for all of your real estate needs!!!
Thank you Brett! It was a pleasure doing business with you the past several months, finishing with the closing today! Congratulations again!
Fantastic experience: We just closed to deal with Rob and his team! They showed a tremendous level of care and generosity and how they dealt with us as clients. I would not buy, sale, or rent in northwest Florida with anyone except Rob Brooks Realty! You’d be wise to do the same!
Thank you Beverly!
Fantastic experience: Rob and his team went above and beyond to help us find the right home in our budget. I highly recommend them without reservation. You will be so pleased that you chose them 5+++
Thank you Tracy! My team and I consider you and your wife a 5 plusX3 client as well!
Fantastic experience: We recently purchased a new home with Kathy and Rob's help. They were both a pleasure to work with along every step of the process. The house was an as-is sale, so it needed some work done on it. Kathy graciously met me and several contractors at the house on multiple occasions and on relatively short notice so that I could get work lined up to start as soon as we closed on the house. This was above and beyond the meetups for the home inspection and WDO inspections. This was after Rob had gone out of his way to get us a head start on viewing the home by giving us a live audio tour when the house was not yet ready for buyers to view it. Our experience could not have been better with Rob and Kathy. They are fantastic people who regularly go above and beyond for their clients!
Will, we so much enjoyed working with you and your terrific family! You have a great location for your family to continue to flourish as you make this great house a home for many years! - Rob
Fantastic experience: Rob helped our family buy a new home in the area. His team went above and beyond for us!
Thank you Megan! You found a special property and we hope it is a great home for your family for many years!
Fantastic experience: We sold our home with Rob and his team and couldn't be more pleased. Rob knows real estate, it's not just his business, it's his calling. He is honest, dependable, and helps explain things so that anyone can understand. Rob also brings with him a team of experts. Sara, his listing agent, was a pleasure to work with. She kept us informed and was patient with us when we suggested some things. Kathy is Rob's closing specialist, and she made our closing 100% effortless. She coordinated with the buyers agent, kept us in the loop, and set up a reliable handy man to complete necessary repairs. She did all this while we were several states away, giving us the peace of mind we needed when we were neck deep in our move. Rob and his team will take care of you. Use them, and you won't be disappointed.
Steven, your comments bring the biggest smile to my face, and I especially resound with the comments you made about Sara and Kathy! They do a fantastic job and I am very blessed to have them! Thank you and do well in your new part of the country! .... it appears my comment was written over a year ago never sent! Sorry it did not come through earlier!
Fantastic experience: We bought a beach condo from Rob after only a video call. Rob is a solid dude and utterly trustworthy. Worked with us through finance issues and finally closing with the Sellers. Never saw the unit till 6 months later and it was exactly as Rob said. We love our beach home here on the most gorgeous beach in the world on Okaloosa island!
Thank you Tony! Serving you was a great joy and I hope you have a terrific Thanksgiving! Thank you for doing business with me!
Fantastic experience: If I could give a 10 star rating I would. Rob and Kathy went above and beyond to help us in every step of the purchase of our home and after we moved in. We are forever grateful for all of their hard work, time and attention to all of our needs.
Your kind words make us feel great! You and Bob are honorable people and we enjoyed serving you very much!
Fantastic experience: Pretty good
Fantastic experience: This past June my siblings and I inherited our family home. We were challenged with the task of selling our home with neither of the three of us living in Fort Walton Beach. Adding to the challenge, our home was in desperate need of much TCL before we could put it on the market. We turned to Brooks Reality. The team embraced this daunting endeavor. From the moment we contracted them the team sprang into action. They were able to contract vendors, schedule repairs, and finally market the house. Every step of this four month process they communicated with us daily and often each member would take it upon themselves to go to the property to handle issues we were unable to address. Each team member treated us as family. They are professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and above all caring. I would highly recommend Brooks Reality.
Thanks Denise! We would say that your family certainly made the transaction work too! You did a great job in communicating decisions in one accord as well as jumping quickly on doing any steps that you needed to take care of with vendors. Both of these things made our job and the transaction doable! Thanks again!
Negative experience: Property management is great until it comes time to get back your security deposit......that is another story. I had to go through many many hoops to get in touch with Danielle and FINALLY after 5 months of emailing, calling and texting I am finally getting my pet rent deposit back from the owner. Ridiculous.
Julian, we're sorry that we didn't get it to you quickly. We did some looking at our processes and made some changes to speed that security deposit system up. Give me a call if you would like to talk more about it and I'm sorry for your inconvenience. Have a good week. Rob
Fantastic experience: Kathy. Was a great insite to my new hm search in the fwb area. Glad i was recommend to her. Thnks
Glad we could be of help!
Fantastic experience: Can not say enough good things about Rob Brooks Realty. They were extremely supportive through our entire house buying process. They are very knowledgeable of the local market, and were very good about giving unbiased guidance throughout the process. You will not be disappointed!
Thank you Andrew! It was a great experience working with your family too! Enjoy your new home!
Fantastic experience: I had the opportunity to purchase an investment property with the help of Rob Brooks Realty. Rob and his team members are very professional, have great knowledge and understanding of the local real estate market. At the time I made the purchase it was a very competitive market, and their advices proved to be incredibly valuable. I would recommend Rob to anyone buying homes in the panhandle area.
Thank you Bowen! It was great working with you and we appreciate your thoughtful approach!
Fantastic experience: If you are selling and / or buying a home, you have to look no further than Rob Brooks Realty. Rob and Kathy are very professional, excellent on follow-ups, and we really enjoyed working with them while finding our new home. We felt like we could openly discuss any issues with them and get back honest answers and opinions. Great experience, and we highly recommend them.
Thank you! We appreciate your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Rob and his staff are fantastic! He assisted us with the purchase of our primary home and, again, with the sale of an investment property. His motto of “ Honesty. Diligence. Charity. Joy.” is very accurate. He has always been honest and professional during each encounter and he is definitely the most knowledgeable person I know of the history of property and real estate in our area.
:) Jennifer, your review brought a big smile to my face this morning! Thank you so much for the warm comments regarding us and our values ... it energizes me in working for others too!
Fantastic experience: Handled our rental property for 3 years with ease. We had great renters! And when we were ready to sell it it was sold in 6 days! Rob Brooks is great! Do not listen to whiny Renters who left Homes in poor condition and are mad about not getting deposit back. My renters indeed got theirs back!
Thank you so much for your kind words and taking the time to write this! Working with you was our honor and pleasure! :)
Fantastic experience: First Time Home Buyer - Absolutely a 5-star business. Robe Brooks Realty operates their business like a first class establishment. They treat you like family and work their butts off for the buyer. Couldn't be more happier with the services that they provide. Bravo and Thank you Rob Brooks and Co.
Thanks Matt! It was fun to help you in getting your part of the American Dream! You demonstrated a lot of patience in the process! Enjoy your home!
Fantastic experience: Rob and his team exhibit their superb character demonstrating honest, joy, Charity, and diligence! It was a joy to work with them, and if we move again they will be our 1st call.
Thank you Heath and Elsa! We have appreciated your honesty, diligence, charity & joy too! Ya'll are great!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional service from Rob and his team! House under contract in less than 24 hours. A company with great values of integrity, trustworthy, honestly, loyalty. Very knowledgeable about the process, area, and comps. Highly recommended for all your real estate needs!
Thank you Sue! Hope all has been going well for you in your new home!
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks and his team are professionals! They are knowledgeable and responsive. They helped us find and buy our dream home. Thanks so much!
We enjoyed working with you so much! Congratulations and enjoy the view!
Fantastic experience: Paul Womack and Rob Brooks provided services far more than selling my home. It was an unexpected need to sell. Their professionalism, true caring, compassion, and more than full service helped to get my house sold. When I couldn’t blow leaves or remove weeds they both helped keep my home as presentable as possible by taking it upon themselves multiple times! I don’t know other realtors that would do that. Paul also has a trusted list of quality people to help get other things needed completed in a timely manner. I can’t say enough for the quality and caring of this professional team. Paul is the person I trust to help me with my next home.
Thank you for your review and glad you had a terrific experience! Paul exemplifies our honesty, diligence, charity and joy in an amazing way!
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks Realty was wonderful! Sold our house in 10 days and helped us find our dream home. Process went extremely well and highly recommend Rob and his team of professionals!
Thanks Will! It was so fun serving you and your family!
Fantastic experience: We loved working with Rob! He’s very knowledgeable of the business as well as the market.
Thanks Kasi! I had fun working with you and your husband too! Have a great week!
Fantastic experience: We were referred to Rob Brooks realty by our Veterans United loan team and within 24 hours of starting the process of our home loan, Rob himself contacted us. Rob was very easy to talk to, and we could tell that he was actually concerned with what we were looking for. He took the time to get to know my wife and I, and find out what our story was. He was upfront too with not being pressured to use him over another realtor. Over the next couple of weeks he stayed in touch with us over the properties we were looking at, and helped guide our search. When we showed up in town to meet him, he was there before we were and eager to show us around. Rob was very upfront with common issues affecting the local home market, to include pointing out bad EIFS siding, cracks in walls, and other areas that I was unfamiliar with being from out of state. He kept us on schedule and helped us get the home we wanted with honest, and thoughtful advice. As an active duty member for 13 years who has dealt with many realtors and agents, I have not met anyone that I’ve trusted and felt a genuine connection with like I have with Rob. We loved working with him and will plan on using his expert knowledge when we move away to manage our property or purchase a second property.
Bill, what a pleasure it is working for you and your wife! Thank you for your thoughtful comments!
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks Realty provided valuable professional services for both the Buyer and Seller during the entire home purchase process and helped us avoid potential minefields. Rob was instrumental in bringing all parties together to find unique compromise solutions to the satisfaction of Buyer and Seller. He provided a comprehensive checklist of important action items and references required for a successful closing. He exceeded our expectations by personally assisting with survey issues and home inspection issues. Thank you Rob Brooks Realty!
Karen, thank you so much for your kind words! You guys were such a pleasure to work with!
Fantastic experience: I have been working with Rob and more recently Kathy for the past year - when we originally planned our move to Gulf Breeze. Rob has repeatedly gone above and beyond. This ranges for being a proxy to review our rental (that he was not involved with), to showing us multiple listings at times that would be too inconvenient for other Realtors, giving us valuable advice that if wasn't given would of caused us to lose our house, directing us toward and excellent lender, to helping us though our post closing questions. I have used multiple realtors in the past, Rob an Kathy have exceed expectations on every level.
Matt - we have both enjoyed working with you! Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to leave this review!
Fantastic experience: I was referred to Rob Brooks Realty by my mortgage lender Veteran’s United. I am pleased to say I had an excellent experience with both companies. Rob contacted me shortly after my loan was pre-approved and explained in great detail the process in laymen terms which was greatly appreciated because I was a first time home buyer. The first showing was a couple of days later and I loved the house so Rob put in an offer for me and the next day it was accepted. I was then introduced to his closing agent Kathy Baker who was an absolute joy to work with. She is very efficient and communicated every detail of the process. I felt informed and empower. Thank you Rob Brooks and Kathy Baker helping make my homeownership journey an awesome one.
Kareemah, We enjoyed working with you too! Hope all has been well for you and your family!
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks is the epitome of professionalism, with decades of experience to guide the real estate buyer/seller. He obviously inspires the same efficient wisdom in his team, as I have had dealings with Kathy, Jackie, and Kaylee; they have beautifully assisted me in the purchase or sale of four homes. I highly recommend Rob Brooks Realty for all real estate needs.
Thank you so much, Susan, for this! I think I can say for all of us that we all thoroughly enjoyed working with you! :)
Negative experience: A family member of mine recently moved out of state on military orders. After renting with Rob Brooks realty he and his wife were denied the return of their security deposit due to a combination of normal wear and tear items and issues that existed before they moved in. I've heard before of military members being ripped off and taken advantage of while renting but I didn't think that it would happen to some one close to me. If you are planing to rent with Rob Brooks Realty, I would highly advised you re-consider if you would like to avoid this from happening to you!
Thomas, although it has been some time, I'd be glad to talk on the phone with you about the general circumstances of this transaction. Feel free to give me a call if you would like that. Rob
Negative experience: Great place to rent from if you enjoy being lied to and taken advantage of.
Negative experience: Terrible experience for military family. Refused to return deposit and was very difficult to get in contact with.
Negative experience: Worst experience ever.
Negative experience: Terrible people to work with.
Fantastic experience: Incredibly helpful during our first home buying experience. The team did a great job.
Fantastic experience: We would like to thank Rob Brooks Realty for wonderful home buying experience. Thanks to Jackie and Daniel our dream came true. We were able to jump the pitfalls of home buying and enjoy new friendships while doing so. Daniel with his friendly smile was always ready and willing with keys in hand to meet our house requirements. Jackie with dedication and determination showed the skill and knowledge needed to excell as successful agent. When a concern arose she had an answer or a solution. Thank you Rob Realty.....
Fantastic experience: Rob and especially Jackie are an amazing team. I worked with Jackie for months building our home only to have my orders canceled and to scrap all our plans of building our dream home. Jackie worked around the clock making sure I got my deposit back and in a timely professional manner. We need more like her and the rest of Robs team.
Fantastic experience: I was pleasantly surprised by both the professionalism and the responsiveness of Mr. Brooks. He was diligent and caring throughout the process. He took the time to make sure I found the right place to start a new home, and he assigned Jackie to help me, (she was also fantastic to work with) who understood my circumstances and ensured I was taken care of. The transition was so smooth and I am very happy with my home. I highly recommend Rob Brooks Realty if you are looking for a home.
Fantastic experience: We used Rob Brooks Realty recently to sell my aging parents home in St Walton Beach, FL. Rob and his staff were very professional, easy to work with, on point with the pricing and indispensable in helping us through the closing process. I was unable to be in Ft Walton during the closing process, but Rob & Jackie took up the slack to ensure a smooth transaction. 5 Stars to Rob Brooks Realty. We'll be using them again...
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks was awesome...
Negative experience: We had a unprofessional experience with Doug the Pensacola Property Management agent. I would not recommend his services to anyone. Rob himself was accommodating and we appreciate that. Doug does not manage your business the way you do.
Fantastic experience: Rob and his associate Jackie really made our home buying experience a true joy! Communication is key and Jackie is the keeper of the key !!! One of a kind ! I would choose this company again if I'm ever in the market for another real estate purchase & I highly recommend anyone interested in homebuying give Rob Brooks Realty a call .
Fantastic experience: Received excellent service from the entire Rob Brooks Realty team from start to finish of the home buying process. It's great to be able to work with a realtor who lives up to their stated values and is helpful throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend for anyone in the northwest Florida area and I would gladly work with Rob Brooks Realty again.
Fantastic experience: I recently purchased my first home using Rob Brooks Realty and the experience could not have gone better. Rob is a friendly, knowledgeable and trustworthy guy who gave me great advise while I was looking and choosing my house. Jackie, his closing specialist, stayed in constant contact and explained the process keeping this nervous home buyer in check. If I could give them 6 stars I would! Thanks Rob and Jackie!
Fantastic experience: I was looking for a townhouse to move into last year in NW Florida and needed something fairly quickly. Rob brooks realty was there for me every step of the way. The application process was so simple and they always responded to my questions promptly. Everyone was so kind and profesional. I absolutely recommend rob brooks realty
Fantastic experience: Rob and Jackie were on top of everything. We had problems with the Home Inspection and Jackie took care of it as soon as I she found out. They treat you like you are their only customer. Very helpful and Knowledgeable. This is the 2nd home I have bought with Rob.
Fantastic experience: Our family recently moved from Tennessee to Florida. We contacted Rob Brooks Realty to coordinate the viewing of multiple homes. Rob was extremely accomodating as we were commuting 7 hours and had a very tight schedule. He spent many hours with us as we viewed the homes, discussed options and asked many questions. Rob and Jacqueline made our purchase a very smooth process. They are the BEST!!
Fantastic experience: As a first time home buyer serving in Army Rob and his team made the process as smooth as possible. They linked us up with the right people and were right there every step of the way. I highly recommend Rob Brooks realty.
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks has sold me two pieces of property and has sold a property for a friend to whom I had recommended him. In both my experiences and that of my friend, we were extremely satisfied in how concientiously and professionally he handled all our transactions. Both of us have and will continue to recommend his real estate services to our friends and associates. He's the real deal as a realtor, and can be depended upon to place the highest priority on the wishes of his customers.
Fantastic experience: I am i the military and have been using Rob for almost three years now for my property management. I have been very happy knowing I have people like Rob and Doug taking care of my property while I am so far away. It has been a tremendous comfort having them assist me with my property. Brandon
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks is the best of the best, in real estate and in life. I watched as he helped 3 of my friends rent or sell their homes. Each time, Rob showed expertise and great patience in dealing with these clients, in one case working with them for several months. I highly recommend him and his associates to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Panhandle.
Fantastic experience: Buying your first house is overwhelming, but Rob Brooks did an amazing job walking me through the process and keeping me focused. He took time to explain each step along the way and always kept my interests in mind. His focus on ethics and service even extended to the agencies he recommended for my mortgage, home inspection, etc. It was a great experience and I would recommend his realty company to anyone. I will be using him again when it comes time to upgrade to a new home (in a few more years)!
Fantastic experience: My wife and I are happy to recommend Rob Brooks Realty to anyone in the area who has realty needs. Rob and his crew have been managing our property for three years now and we have never had a problem. They do a great job of finding quality renters for us, as well as communicating our needs to the renters and vice-versa. It's great to know that, even though we are no longer in the area, we can have peace of mind regarding our property. Rob, Doug and the gang are consummate professionals who abide by their stated core values.
Fantastic experience: For the past two years I have employed Rob Brooks realty to manage my rental house in Milton. One of the things that initially enticed me to choose Rob and his company was how his personal ethics and integrity translated into his business practices. Rob and his staff indeed display honesty and integrity in how they conduct themselves and this is why it has been a pleasure using them as my property manager. They have been very quick to fill the rental and drive by every month, sending me a photo and a monthly update. I would highly recommend Rob and his team if you need a respectable property manager.
Fantastic experience: Rob Brooks Realty was a pleasure to work with. My wife and I entered the market several times to look for a home and Rob helped us and was very patient with us. It took us 3 years because we couldn't find "the" home and Rob never once pressured us to get a sale. He took his time with us, explained the pros and cons of different programs and was up front about foreclosures and short sales and explained in depth our options and what would be best for us at this point in our lives; and once we found the home we wanted he followed up with us and through the lender to ensure we made the closing date. I'd recommend Rob any day of the week.
