If you want to sell your house use Chad Sellers. He will be very honest with you. He will tell you what to do to get your house ready. He will walk you through the process of how much you should ask for your house. Chad will always make time for you. He calls, text, emails and even meet you in person. He walks you through the process of you house inspection and appraisal. During the coronavirus shutdown he has kept in contact with me almost every day. Not only keeping me updated on the house, but also making sure my boys and I are doing ok. Chad was able to sell my house and close on it in little over 30 days. I’m just so impressed with Chad and his whole company. I highly recommend him

Really enjoyed working with Carl Henrichs. He kept it honest and realistic with me in terms of houses that were available with all of my requirements, and I definitely had quite a few. As soon as I realized I was ready to buy, he was there for every question and every step in the process. He connected me with the right people to make sure I got the most out of my first home purchase. Checked in on me even after I bought the house to see if I had any further questions. I don't trust people easily, but Carl made it worth the time to give him my trust and he delivered. We love our new home. I would recommend him to my friends and family in the future.

Mark helped my husband and I find the perfect location for our small business! He was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, even after closing. There was never a time that was too late, or inconvenient for any questions we had. Every single engagement with Mark was enlightening, and he was always honest when he wasn't sure about a difficult question. Even on those rare occasions when he wasn't sure about a very specific topic, he found the answer quickly, and responded at his soonest opportunity. He is a true, top-of-the-line professional, and we recommend him for buyers of all types, and price ranges.

Kris was awesome in handling the sale of my sister's house. Every step of the way from start to finish she was there handling it all. My sister's house needed new carpeting before we could put it on the market. She picked out the color and arranged for its installation. The home went on the market and on the first day we received numerous showings and a full-price offer. All of this happened while I was away in Florida. I can not say enough good things about how Kris handled this sale for me.

Blake Sellers did a phenomenal job for us! This was our first home purchase and we knew very little about the process. Blake was there for us every step of the way showing us the house, advising us on putting in an offer, answering our numerous questions at all hours of the day, preparing all documents that we needed to sign for the purchase, negotiating with the seller on various topics. All the way up to closing and even after, Blake guided us to a quick and smooth purchase of our new home. I highly recommend Equity 55 and Blake Sellers especially! We don't know what we would have done without them.

After my father passed away, I needed to sell his house in Breese. The challenging part about this is that I live in Alabama. I was worried about whether I would have to make frequent trips back and forth in order to tend to everything and get the place sold. Then I came across Chad and saw how highly regarded he is, not only on Zillow but also by other people I know who have previously used Equity 55. Chad and I instantly hit it off and he was with me every step of the way. He went above and beyond to help me get this place sold. From testing the market for a fair asking price, to working with inspectors and repair people to get the home ready for the buyer, Chad was diligent, respectful, and the quintessential professional. There were several times when I started to lose my patience with the whole process, but Chad did a great job of keeping me calm and centered. When it was all said and done, Chad and I were able to strike a deal with a buyer that provided a nice profit for me. Most importantly, because Chad took care of so much, I did not have to make repeated trips from Alabama to Breese. The process from listing to closing took a bit longer than I anticipated (not Chad's fault), but he was really able to keep the process generally enjoyable for me. I would recommend Chad with out reservation for anybody looking to buy or sell their home.

After interviewing multiple Realtors, I selected Chad Sellers of Equity Fifty-Five Realty to sell my home. I appreciated Chad's accurate comparative market analysis of my home and his comprehensive marketing plan to sell my home in a fast and professional manner. In addition, Chad was in constant Email and/or text contact with me during the entire time my home was listed until the final closing. Without hesitation, I recommend Chad and the EFFR team to those considering a Realtor to sell their home in the Metro East.

From the moment you decide to sell he walks you through the steps from how to prepare your house to selling your house very knowledgeable and resourceful every step of the way.

Kris is great I’ve dealt with her on several transactions. Shes knowable about the real estate business and is very trustworthy. She is prompt In Answering every text and question I have. All around Equity 55 is Exceptional Real Estate Agency. You would be a fool to use any other. I read the reviews on other sights and they are appalling it’s amazing they are still in business. Honesty is always the best policy!

Due to an illness in the family, my wife and I needed to move 700 miles away, and we had a very tight timeline. As we have worked with Chad on several occasions in the past, we knew we would be well taken care of! Chad had our house sold within 53 days and even managed to close our house remotely. We did not need to travel the 700 miles back to Breese to complete the closing. This is an agent who will walk you through every step of the process. I am very happy to recommend him!

Can't say enough good things about Chad's service and overall professionalism. He handled every step of the process extremely well and his level of communications was better than anything I've experienced in over 30 years of buying and selling homes. I have no hesitation with recommending him as either a seller or buyer's agent.

In my search to find a home, Mark was extremely patient, helpful, conscientious, and very easy to work with! It was obvious that he came prepared to each showing by familiarizing himself with Seller disclosures prior to each walk-through. Mark responded quickly to any follow-up questions I had through either text, email and/or phone. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor who will represent you and your needs as the Buyer!

We can’t recommend Kris enough! She’s kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and looks out for her clients. We’ve had the joy of working with Kris purchasing two homes and selling one over the last 7 years. We loved working with her so much the first time we called her again when it was time to look for a new home. There is no one else we’d rather have on our side!
