Homes by T.J. Zywicki

Ok, so I know when you put your house on the market and it sells at basically the asking price to the first people who walk through the property there are a variety of factors involved and the agent you select might not be the highest one on the list. This is not one of those situations. Did my house sell to the first person who walked through, yes! Did I basically get my asking price, yes! Is it a hot market for sellers right now, yes! But, here’s where the right agent matters. Although the market is hot, things don’t move as fast at the high end and there had basically been no sales in months in my price range ($1M+). TJ understood that there would be 1-2 buyers for the type of house I had and that we had to be priced and merchandised right when they came along. He proceeded to offer credible pricing info and the tools to make the house standout in a meaningful way. I could spend paragraphs talking about his professionalism and his understanding of the market but instead I’m going to talk about something that was incredibly important to me, responsiveness! When I say TJ was “always on” it is an understatement. Being a business owner, I work at all hours and even when I would send a random brain-dump text in the middle of the night or super early in the morning, I was always amazed that TJ would instantaneously respond. First, I thought it was a bot, then I wondered if he ever slept, but ultimately, I realized it’s just who he is. And listen, anyone can answer quickly but if the answer is wrong its worthless. TJ’s knowledge and network of contacts was obvious and helped immensely in getting this thing done and closed. Each and every step was flawless and even when something went wrong (title company not responding to a tax issue) he worked his network and got the deal closed in record time. I’m a pretty demanding customer and I don’t generally write reviews, but TJ impressed me. If you’re looking for an exceptional agent in the Detroit metro area, he’s your guy.
