Century 21 Alton Clark - Altamonte Springs, Florida

James and Christine did a good job bringing potential buyers to our home and finding a buyer who paid close to our asking price.

They had a variety of marketing surveillance tools that provided insight into the market interest of our home. We found this very useful.

They also provided home services that conveniently helped us prep our house.

This company is amazing! I first tried to sell our home "by owner". I had the best of intentions, but not any real knowledge of how things worked. It was basically a disaster trying to do it all myself and the stress level was through the roof.

Right off the bat, I knew I made a good decision with Alton Clark realty. The photography and marketing they did on my home was first class! They were even able to do a three-dimensional view so people could realistically see the house without actually being there. James and Christine were on top of every little detail and answered my questions quickly. Within 4 days we had multiple full price offers. Not to mention, one offer was even over asking price! Not even to mention we were able to close within about 15 days. Trust me, if you're seeking an agent to do the best for your interests, call James and Christine. And by the way, the people who ended up buying my home never even looked at the house in person, as they were from out of state. That is how good their pictures were for the listing!

One of their agents, James Evans, was the listing realtor on a house we put an offer in on, 624 Silver Creek Dr, Winter Springs, FL 32708. He responded with a verbal counter with my real estate agent in the morning, giving us to the end of day to respond. Busy at work all day, get a call from my realtor saying James decided to go with another offer around 2pm. So we have a commitment from homeowner to counter, he only did so verbally in lieu of writing like a professional would do, but now find out why. This might be par for the course, but the ethics is non existent in this man based off my dealings with him, avoid if possible if you see him as listing agent, bush league stuff.

Christine and her team were incredible!!! The entire process was very smooth, she is very knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and kept us informed through every step. This is the second time our family trusts Christine and we couldn’t be happier that we did! 100% recommended 🙂

If you're trying to sell your home For Sale By Owner, James Clark will harass you.
If you tell him that you have no interest in his services he will still harass you. If you tell him you have met with one of his competitors he will insinuate they're inept capabilities. If you block his number he will call you from another phone.
I believe this guy was a member of the police force earlier in his career. Probably released for questionable dealings.
I'm saving all of his emails and texts for my complaint to the real estate board and Century 21.

We signed with an agent at this realty to sell our house.

We have a copy of the original septic permit when the previous owners reinstalled a new system in 1995. This official county paperwork is signed by a Sumter County official affirming that the septic drain field is more than the required 75 feet away from the well, according to regulation.

The bank required the buyer to have a new survey and the surveyors asked to flag the drain field. We are out of town, so we gave our realtor a copy of this official county paperwork showing where the drain field was, and asked her to give it to the surveyor.

Susan took it upon herself to go and flag it--except she marked it in the wrong place. She called us to inform us that she did this and my husband told her to remove those flags because she didn't know where to put them. The signed county paperwork says it was approved, so just send the surveyors that. He said unless it was dug up, or the installers themselves flagged it, it's hidden underground.

Instead of following my husband, her client's wishes, she took it upon herself to hire a septic company to go out and mark the tank without even consulting us! This septic company was not the ones who installed it and he did know where it was without digging it up.

So the surveyor marked the field too close according to the FHA Loan rules. When I found out about this, I called this septic company and they sent me an email, so I have their response in writing, that Susan requested them to mark both the tank and the drain field. The surveyor didn't know any different. They saw the flags and marked the field too close.

Therefore, the FHA loan was not approved and the buyer requested us to move this legally installed system. Plus, now, an incorrect survey is floating around out there-even though we have a signed official county document.

The Sumter County official inspected that sewer when it was installed and not buried in the ground! Susan should have reiterated that with the surveyor and told him that was sufficient. If the Sumter County Official's signature is not good enough, then something is very wrong with this whole process!!

Because we cannot trust them anymore, we have asked to cancel our contract with Alton Clark Century 21, and they sent us a bill for $656 in marketing expenses to be wired to Fairwinds Credit Union.

This is an insult because the deal fell through because this realty company did not follow our instructions. We cannot trust them any more.

We enjoyed selling our house, they made everything very smooth and easy. I would recommend using them.

We just closed on our new house last week and the experience provided by Dave Abbott was phenomenal! Not only did he take time to show us any house we wanted to see but he was very responsive getting us in the same day when showings were available. We also were selling our current home at the same time and everything from photos to showings were handled perfectly especially considering we have a baby and labrador at home. I highly recommend Dave and his associates for all your real estate needs. Hands down the best experience in this crazy market.
