Other agents had tried to pressure us into putting offers in for the houses they were showing when we weren’t ready, which I do not respond well to. Instead, Korey supported us and answered our questions. When we were ready, Korey walked us through the process, listened to our budget and what we wanted, and helped us find our perfect first home. After a few years, we were ready to upgrade to a new build and of course we went to Korey to be our seller’s agent. He did such a great job marketing our home, it sold the first weekend on the market for $20k over asking!! Thanks Korey!
There was no pressure and we genuinely felt like he wanted us to find the home we loved. He was always communicative. We didn’t feel like we were alone during the process. It led us to finding out first home and we couldn’t be happier.
We met with Korey in January 2023 to learn about the general process to buy a house, and he provided us with so much information while also giving us the time and space until we were ready to buy. We found ourselves in a stressful situation and needed to move ASAP in October 2023. Korey helped us find a great house within our budget and worked so hard to expedite the process as much as possible to get us keys quickly! Even with prices rising, Korey helped us find a 3bed 2bath with a gorgeous, huge yard.
In our case, he walked by our side from the initial conversations on considering a sale ( we had a very complicated situation) through nuanced suggestions on improvements ( what would actually add value or not.) Beyond having a ready list of excellent handymen - landscapers, painters, cleaners- to ready the property, Korey went above and beyond by helping us coordinate service while we were out of the country. In the end, he negotiated a very complex off market sale that resulted in happy sellers and buyers. In short, Korey is extraordinary. You will be lucky, indeed, to have him as your agent. But you might not be that lucky, as anyone who has worked with him is going to keep him plenty busy with everyone they know who needs to buy or sell a house. He is just that exceptional.
...very detailed, describes property in an honest well informed process and doesn't pressure the purchase, allowing to flow with buyers time frame and importance. 2nd purchase from him and will earn my daughters business soon. also will refer any interested shopper. Thanks again Korey!
We’d definitely recommend him to other!
Korey responded quickly to all of our questions and concerns via text, call or email, we never felt out of the loop. He also anticipated our needs, such as asking if we would like to view the house again before closing. All these things added up to a really good home buying experience. Thanks Korey!
We were very pleased
Kudos to Korey and Long Realty.
Very knowledgeable and explains the process well, very quick turnaround when I asked to see houses which was a critical part of getting my offer in and accepted with almost no time to spare. Highly recommend Korey for all first time homebuyers and everyone else!
Korey empowered us in knowing where we were at each step of the process. The sellers were motivated to move quickly with the purchase, as were we, and that process was made easy by everyone we worked with at Long Realty. We will be recommending these services to our friends and family.
Especially in the selling process, he made what could have been an incredibly stressful experience one that was very easy to navigate. The thing I value the most about Korey is how much he values his own word. He will not speak about unknowable hypotheticals, he will not upsell you on things that could, or may happen. He deals exclusively in reality, and in the tangible facts of the experience. This creates a very strong resource of trust. When it comes to navigating a financial decision with massive personal impact, like buying our selling a home, trust for the expert you invite into the experience should be paramount to everything else. I can safely say Korey has earned my complete and total trust when it comes to the world of real-estate.
Very pleased with our experience
He worked with us every step of the way to help us purchase our home. Professional, kind, the best!
We are first time home buyers, but he was so patient with us, answering all of our questions. He took our interests and asks into account, was incredibly responsive, and worked around our schedules. He fought for us every step of the way, yet was never pushy. It was a joy to work with him -- we highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, not just first time home buyers!
We were first time homebuyers so our first meeting with Korey was a one on one info session so we could be better prepared for the home buying journey. Throughout it all, Korey was attentive to our wants and needs, flexible with our schedule and introduced us to homes/areas of town we wouldn't have found on our own. We felt like we were doing it all with a family friend!
not only were there open houses for potential buyers but inviting brokers to a broker open house did more for informing the marketplace than a simple ad could. that being said the quality of the listing, the photography, the copy, and the extra highlighting that my home received put it in front of more eyeballs and potential buyers and in a better light than any of the several other homes in the area, including my next door neighbor. the proof ultimately is in the pudding - korey's work lead to being in contract on the home in a number of hours equal to the number of days most homes in the area are on the market.
I felt he was always in our corner and cared. Straight shooter and responsive. Made the fthb process as simple as possible. 10/10. Thanks, Korey!
Incredibly smart, knowledgeable, and honest with an exceptional eye for style and design. Korey got us into a wonderful home on a tight timeframe. 10/10 would buy from him again.
Would absolutely recommend!
He answered all our questions in a timely manner, and was very helpful and patient since the beginning.
He is kind, thoughtful, timely, knowledgeable and just a great person to be around! We were moved out of our rental and felt stressed about finding a new place. He gracefully guided my partner and I through every aspect of being a homeowner. We were able to tour multiple beautiful homes and was able to start the paperwork immediately for our first home. If buying a home seems daunting, have Korey assistance you! He made every step simple and clear.
He was accommodating and insightful about the market. I felt he cared about what I was looking for and was informative about the home-buying process. He was always responsive to questions and really made me feel confident in buying my first home. Thanks for helping me find my first home, Korey!
They are patient, kind, and knowledgeable. They listened to our needs and wants and took the time to get to know us which helped with finding the perfect home for our family. I am so grateful to Korey who made this an easy, fun, and seamless process.
He was even able to help coordinate with the title agency getting a mobile notary out for us to sign documents while we were out of state so we could close on our desired date. We are very grateful our first home buying experience was with him.
Korey is very knowledgeable and helpful. He’s always willing to go above and beyond to make sure his clients are satisfied. He works really hard at making sure his clients get exactly what they’re looking for. I will most definitely use Korey again!!
I would recommend him highly.
I am grateful ….. he is extremely help and thank you again!!!!
Every part of this process was seamless and I have Korey to thank for that. House buying can be extremely scary and daunting but that was not my experience. I am forever thankful to Korey and the team that helped me with my home-buying process.
My wife and I were both first time homebuyers and Korey helped us to understand the process. He's very trustworthy and professional and I can't recommend him enough especially to those buying a home for the first time. Ultimately we found the home of our dreams thanks to Korey!
He's that good. With Korey's help, we bought a property from out of town. He was always available when we were able to be in Tucson, and he helped us coordinate other details when we could not be in town. He was persistent in communicating with the sellers. Korey also has a great team of inspectors. Their complete review of the house was very helpful in negotiating price. All the details helped us feel confident in our purchase. In the crazy 2021 market, we were able to get our first choice house, and get it under asking price.
He was very patient, flexible, got to know our needs, and was a knowledgeable guide for a first time home buyer.
He always kept my son & myself of everything going on with the house, etc.
He walked us through every step, helped reduce our anxiety through the process, and really helped us find our place. He is someone we will recommend to anyone who is needing to buy our sell a home!!
He’s extremely knowledgeable about the market, and easily navigates the buying process for his clients, making them feel at ease through it all. He’s able to maintain a professional demeanor, while remaining warm and down to earth. Absolutely the best agent out there. In addition to that, he’s a genuine and kind person.
I was incredibly anxious to venture into the process of buying a home, especially in the current market. Korey's approach was both genuine and patient - which was essential in calming my nerves and helping me focus on finding the home of my dreams. Our first offer didn't go through, initially, but then the offer was accepted after another buyer dropped out. I truly believe that because of Korey's charismatic personality, community relationships and expert guidance (to craft a compelling letter) - the seller went on to accept our original offer. Korey treated my home search needs as a priority and didn't believe in delaying responses. Korey got the job done and did a fantastic job. I went from being apprehensive about buying a home, to moving into exactly what I was looking for, within a month. I highly recommend Korey to anyone seeking to buy or sell a home!
His commitment to keeping me informed every step of the way made what would have been a very intimidating process much more manageable. He was flexible to accommodate me with thorough video call tours when my schedule was complicated. He took extra care to make time when things were urgent or time sensitive and I never felt he was too busy. Anyone would be fortunate to work with someone as warm, hard working, and competent as Korey and I highly recommend him!
We never felt pressured or rushed. From start to finish, Korey made the process feel comfortable and easy. Korey customized our search, guided us along the way, and helped us to find the perfect house for us. On top of this, Korey negotiated a killer deal where every single thing we asked for was provided. I have already recommended Korey to people I know and they have also started their home buying process with him.
He helped us find the house we wanted so we just want to say thanks again.
Back in 2020, Korey was able to help me through the process of selling an acre of land. He made the process very smooth and efficient. Now in 2021, as a first time home buyer, he has guided me through the process by answering all my questions and really listening to what I was looking for in a first home. When we would view homes, he would help point out the good features and items that might need some attention during an inspection. His professionalism, knowledge, determination, and honesty are much appreciated! Korey went above and beyond to help me find the perfect home and negotiate with the sellers. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family!
Having just lost her mother, she has been a mostly blubbering mess and it was making getting anything done more of a chore than it should have been, so it was extremely helpful on Korey's part that he was willing to operate like that. He walked us through the process and was there to answer whatever questions arose.
Korey was attentive to my needs and wants and helped me navigate the home buying process to ensure I found the perfect house for my family. He made sure to answer all my questions and to provide me with timely updates during the entire process. I am so grateful for his support and knowledge of the real estate market and his ability to be direct and caring.
Korey made every step of the process clear, stress-free, and proceed apace. As a first-time home buyer, I could not have hoped for a better experience.
