Additional Real Estate-Related Services

NextHome Estates Realty Group does not formulate arrangements with third-party providers such that they receive compensation whenever one of our clients utilize their services.  Although many brokerages engage in such practices, and they are not necessarily illegal, we believe that it presents a conflict of interest that is not beneficial to our clients.  In addition, our broker, Thomas McKenzie, is a licensed attorney, and therefore, held to a much higher standard regarding our clients, than an ordinary real estate broker or agent..”

In those days you could count our employees on both hands, every service note was handwritten, and bell bottoms qualified as business casual—we were small but mighty.  In 1996, the nation’s largest title insurer and Fortune 500® company, Fidelity National Financial, saw integrity in our commitments, and in August 1998 we officially became Fidelity National Home Warranty.  Today, we have over 850 team members across 17 states, but we’re still that same service-minded company committed to protecting budgets from unexpected costs.

John Heldman

Great experience! Tom did a great job marketing our home. He was well prepared with comparable sales prices, and helped us establish a realistic sales price. Tom diligently followed through on all the details. We received an offer very quickly and were very satisfied with the price and Tom’s excellent service. We’d definitely use Tom again!

Patti Smith

List with Tom, he is the best!! I listed my property with Tom, he was so helpful and knowledgeable. He was accurate and realistic about pricing and getting it on the market quickly. We had an offer much sooner than I expected, (because of the similar properties I had been watching for many months that had not sold.) Tom is an attorney and that was a big plus for me because I had a complicated listing. He made it so easy and fixed everything perfectly! My accountant was very impressed with Tom’s work too! I highly recommend Tom McKenzie, because he Is knowledgeable, professional and so nice to work with!
