TESTIMONIALS

Phil stands head and shoulders above the rest

We have known Phil Chadwick for about four years having met him at an open house that he was hosting. We ended up buying that house and also listed our then current house with him. In a field where there are hundreds of real estate agents to choose from, Phil stands head and shoulders above the rest. He is honest, ethical, knows real estate backwards and forwards, and he deals with any issues that arise. For those reasons we chose Phil Chadwick to represent us in our final forever home purchase and to sell for us the first home he assisted us in buying. I view real estate as an area where you need to be careful who you choose. Our choice of Phil was the best one we could have made. He is simply the best in his field and having him represent you whether buying or selling is a decision you would never regret!! – Linda L.

The most up-front, honest individual we have ever done business with We were totally thrilled with

We were totally thrilled with our experience with Phil Chadwick in selling our condo. He is the most up-front, honest individual we have ever done business with. He was “Johnny-on-the-spot” taking care of all major and minor details pertaining to the sale. Honestly, he went above board in helping us get the condo ready for sale. We couldn’t be happier with the experience or the outcome!!! We highly recommend Phil for any real estate transaction. – Nancy and Steve

We had 4 offers the first day

A friend recommended Phil to me also in the real estate business. Met Phil when he first came to my home to talk about selling my home. I was recently widowed at the time and wanted to move to a retirement home in about 3 months. Phil impressed me from the start with his polite, and professional attitude and bearing. He presented me with the plan on how to sell my home and I can say he led me through the paths of what I would have to do. I was not afraid to take the step, as he was re-assuring and confident. I liked the idea of sunset photos of the house to be used in the ads and also a portfolio. He suggested an open house after we had the house appraised. ( to get a better idea of the pricing). I agreed to my price and we went ahead. He had 4 offers the first day and one the next day for full price and we closed the deal. So the rest is history and we all were happy with the outcome. – Carol R.

Sold my home in 3 days

Phil's personable professionalism made every aspect of my selling and buying experiences a plus. His market analysis, promotional strategy – including a top-notch photographer – were winning combinations: My home sold in 3 days. Closing went smoothly and quickly, as did the purchase of a new home. Phil listened, understood what I was looking for, and zeroed in. His insight was "right on." In record time, I walked through a doorway...and was "home!" – Claudia S.

Sold my home of 38 years in two weeks

The selling and leaving of a home of 38 years can be an emotional experience. Phil helped make this experience as smooth and least traumatic as possible by selling it in two weeks. The same is true with the new home he helped us find and secure. Combine a friendly human touch with professionalism and you have the definition of Phil. We wouldn't think of using anyone other then Phil for our real estate needs. We recommend him highly. – James F, DDS

Marketing effectively using Internet technology

I used Phil's services to sell my house and to buy its replacement. As the selling agent, Phil approached the task with vigor. He marketed the house effectively using Internet technology, personal contacts, bringing good prospects for viewing. I was kept informed of prospects impressions that might enhance the marketing. He was on time, courteous and professional. Phil is a good listener. It didn't take him long to find the replacement house. He never wasted my time. He handled the paper work efficiently and made closing easy. – H. Hunt, MD

A great person, easy to talk to and most respectful…wonderful personality

Great customer service, knowledgeable, skilled professional, good listening skills, organized, are just a few descriptive words used by clients’ reviews of Phil Chadwick. I have to concur to all of the above. My daughter and son-in-law, who had recommended Phil, both bought and sold their property and were quite pleased with his friendly and professional attitude, along with exceptional customer service. Phil is noted for selling high-end homes, so I was bit concerned, as my price range was well below that level, however Phil put me right at ease. He is a great person, easy to talk to and most respectful…wonderful personality. I’ve bought and sold a number of properties in my lifetime and had many dealings with real estate agents that sometimes didn’t listen to my needs. Phil, on the other hand, was excellent and listened to all my needs and wants. He was respectful of my time and showed only places within that range. I was thrilled with Phil’s knowledge and handling of the complexities of real estate transactions. He is truly a man of integrity, along with a skilled professional. I highly recommend Phil for all your real estate needs. – L. Sider

Exceptional Service Under Difficult Circumstances

I cannot recommend Phil highly enough. He sold my elderly parents condo while they were living out of state in California. They were not well enough to come back and I (their son) could not leave them. So Phil did everything including getting clothes boxed up, furniture donated and staging the condo. Phil priced it perfectly, higher than another realtor had suggested, and we received multiple offers. Throughout the process Phil was extremely kind to my parents and mindful of my time. I have nothing but the highest regards for Phil. – C. Horowitz

Strongly recommend Phil for both buying and selling a home

My wife and I were returning to the Phoenix metro area after nearly a 5 year hiatus. I had never purchased a home in the area so I reached out to some of my friends to see if they could recommend someone. My wife and I interviewed a number of different agents but after meeting with Phil we knew he would be the best agent to help us meet our specific housing needs. At the time we were interested in unique properties, potentially with a mid-century modern design, that could be acquired inside of what we considered a limited budget. For Phil this was a challenge because at the time he had been focusing on homes with a view and higher end properties, however the types of homes he were looking for clearly appealed to him so Phil went about educating himself on the types of homes we wanted and the neighborhoods they inhabited. It took nearly five months and two failed offers before we were able to close on a home that met all of the demanding criteria my wife and I had set as well as being within our budget. Over the course of that five months Phil must have taken us out to see nearly 80 houses and completed all of the paper work on our offers in a timely and professional manner. His patience and commitment to helping us find the “right” home was something that confirmed our decision to work with Phil as the right one.
It has been just over six years since we made that purchase and during that time we used Phil to help us acquire a condominium for my mother-in-law. About 6 months ago my wife and I decided it was time for a change and have subsequently moved out of state but when it came time to sell our home we called Phil again. Not only did he invest in an amazing photographer to help feature our home, he helped as prepare our home for the sale and we were able to achieve a full price offer on our home while owning potentially the most up to date and expensive home in our neighborhood.
I strongly recommend you meet Phil and talk to him about what it is you really want when it comes to buying and or selling a home. He is going to be honest about the market, provide excellent guidance when performing walk-throughs as well as be able to answer all of your questions as you work deal with the complicated paperwork involved with buying and selling a home. Phil is not only an excellent agent but he is also a great person, easy to talk with, always on time and ever respectful of that fact that everyone sees the home buying experience in their own way." – Roderick I.

The “Chadwick Experience”

I heard from some Minnesota friends this morning that it is 4 degrees, wind-chill -12…thanks for finding our AZ home!
I wanted to let you know how much your efforts, knowledge of the area, understanding of ‘our’ needs (door into the master bathroom, etc.), but most of all your patience, during the two years looking for our ‘Wow’ house, are appreciated…you delivered! Being in sales myself I don’t say the following lightly; you truly went above and beyond, but knowing others, who referred us to you, they had the same ‘Chadwick Experience’, so, it’s just you! – Gene M.

Best Experience With a Realtor I've Ever Had!

I recently bought a home in Fountain Hills, Arizona, using Phil Chadwick as my Buyer's Agent. This is my sixth home purchase over the last 35 years - Phil was by far the best realtor I've encountered in my home-buying experience. In a time when providing great customer service has become a lost art, Phil restored my faith you can still find people who know how important customer service is to any experience. From providing me cold drinks and snacks on warm Arizona days as we viewed potential homes to his conducting skilled market analysis on home trends, Phil provided everything I needed to make rational cost-effective decisions. The result was a fabulous new home at below-list price and favorable terms. Whether I'm looking for another home, an investment property, or looking to sell in the future, I will definitely ask Phil Chadwick to be my realtor again. He has my highest recommendation - Phil is a skilled professional, very easy to talk to, and provides wonderful advice and service. – D. Roberts

Surpassed my highest expectations!

Words to describe Phil Chadwick's service as a realtor? Excellent. Outstanding. Thoughtful. Beyond my expectation. Extraordinary!!! It would be hard to think of anything that Phil Chadwick could have done better as he helped us find and purchase a home in Fountain Hills, Arizona. Phil is without a doubt the finest realtor I have ever worked with. Phil is friendly and approachable, very knowledgeable of both the Fountain Hills area and the complexities of real estate transactions. He was a steady hand, guiding us through the search for just the right house, then negotiating a fair price for it. He went above and beyond what most realtors do, contacting various contractors to provide estimates for necessary repairs to the house. In short, he was simply amazing! – E.J.C.

Great Professional Service

We were looking for a winter home in the Scottsdale area and had become frustrated with agent’s that seemed to be more concerned about their commission than finding a house that would work for us. A friend suggested that we contact Phil. We immediately saw a difference. Phil asked numerous questions about our “needs” and “wants” as well as our price range. When we made a trip to Arizona, Phil had numerous homes to see, all of which met our requirements. We appreciated his patience and support and found a couple possibilities the first day. We changed our plans when we unexpectedly found the perfect lot and decided to build. Phil helped us through the process of buying the lot even though it meant a lower commission. He patiently answered all our questions and insured a smooth closing. Even after the closing, Phil has been helpful in answering many questions. My wife and I highly recommend Phil. He is an outstanding professional. – Henry G.

Phil listens

So, what sells a house to a particular buyer? If you think a Realtor does perhaps you should find a different Realtor. Houses sell themselves to each individual buyer. A good Realtor listens to that buyer then puts together a portfolio of properties that he believes matches the clients’ wants. As those properties fail to meet the client's expectations, as they surely will, the best of Realtors become more attuned to the subtleties behind the buyer's decisions. Phil Chadwick has and will continue to be my Realtor of choice because he listens for the subtleties and acts on them rather than ticking off items on the wish list. I have bought two houses with Phil and found a house for a friend that Phil expertly negotiated through the buying process. At no point in a relationship of over 13 years has he ever disappointed me as a client or a friend. You can find no better qualities in a Realtor. – Walter C.

Infinite Patience

Ray and I came to know Phil Chadwick about 4 years ago. He had infinite patience in helping us inspect more houses (I suspect) than any other senior couple coming from the northeast. We did find the "house-of-our dreams" ultimately. But with Phil's guidance we were better able to look at the critical things...separating the wheat from the chaff. He was careful to listen to what was important to us and what we wanted to avoid. For example, when we at last decided not to inspect homes with pools, he redirected his searches. He suggested a really knowledgeable home inspection company, and we had full confidence in his findings. Feeling comfortable and having confidence in the people you work with is a "game breaker". I would not hesitate to recommend Phil and would use two words to describe him: efficient and tireless. – Joan C.

Put your trust in a true professional

Phil has been our real estate agent for about 10 years. He has negotiated 3 contracts for us. During each transaction, he has demonstrated great pride, integrity, and commitment to success. He is very market knowledgeable and is very efficient in taking you through the process. You will buy, or sell, at a fair price and in a reasonable amount of time by following his guidance. — Tom D.

Highly Recommend Phil Chadwick

My husband and I both have backgrounds in commercial real estate, so we were discerning when choosing our realtor. We did well with Phil Chadwick. Since we lived out of state and had a limited amount of time to preview, it was important for our realtor to be organized and efficient. Our time with Phil was very well spent. He provided useful information, sound market comparisons and strategic negotiations. And, it was a pleasure working with him! Finally, it is evident that Phil is passionate about his work. We highly recommend him. – Phyllis A.

We would look to Phil for our next house.

Phil was thorough and concise with his assessment of the house we were to buy. Although we backed out of that purchase; we immediately went to him for another choice and bought that one. Again his advice was right "on the money." And he made good suggestions for improvements. – C. Drury

Very Responsive; Good Counsel

We worked with Phil over 6 weeks in the first quarter finding a home in Fountain Hills, I found Phil a real professional with a very pleasant personality. Phil was always on time, very responsive to my wife's many home viewings, and very knowledgeable of the area and the market. Phil’s counsel was infrequent but timely and subtle when it was needed. Upon an offer and acceptance Phil was very helpful in arranging inspections, and all other details up through closing. Phil was a big part in making this purchase a very positive and enjoyable experience. I would recommend Phil to any of our friends and actually one of our friends is currently working with Phil in pursuit of a winter home in Fountain Hills. – Bruce T.

A True Professional

Phil spent several weeks with me and my friend Marlene looking at homes in the Fountain Hills area. He set up appointments quickly and always arrived to pick us up at the appointed time as well as arriving at each appointment in the proper time frame. He was more than accommodating in being willing to have my sister join us on one day and 3 girlfriends when they were visiting! When I narrowed my selection down to 4 houses for my husband to see, Phil made the days run smoothly. We found our dream house and Phil help to write up the offer to make everyone win. The whole process was easy and professionally handled. I would and have recommended Phil's services to friends and family! – K. Tobin

Always ready to help

In our experience, Realty One's Phil Chadwick transcended the relationship between Realtor and Buyer. His invaluable research made home selection a choice of priorities not a matter of elimination. His timely availability and lightning response by telephone, text or e-mail made us feel as though we were right there with him, when in reality we were a half country away. In essence our priorities were his primary concern. His connections to reputable financial brokers as well as Title Companies, Home Inspectors and other critical elements of a sale were flawless. A realtor with this level of readiness is a must when considering one of the biggest purchases anyone will likely make in their lifetime. – G. Sarge

Client-First Approach, High Level of Service

We had the pleasure of shopping for and eventually purchasing a property in Scottsdale, AZ, with the help of Phil. My wife and I have been "real estate agent skeptics" for a long time, unsure about the real value added in the process. Working with Phil was an excellent experience, however. Phil was truly interested in making sure we did not overbid on any property we were considering. He knew we had a limit to our budget, and never did he pressure us to upping our terms in order to close a deal. He always said we can make an offer and if it isn't accepted, we will find another one. That was a refreshing experience. Once the deal was completed, Phil went above and beyond in terms of taking care of the final details for us. This was crucial for us, since we lived in another country and did the purchase from afar. Phil is a straight shooter, salt of the earth person. He is not in sales, but in helping clients achieve their goals. Thanks Phil! – J. Falk

A Most Positive Experience

Phil Chadwick provided us with a great home buying experience. As we were relocating from Illinois to Arizona, we needed someone with whom we felt comfortable and someone we could trust. Phil more than fit the bill. He was available for us on both of our visits to the area, and took the time to answer questions and offered ideas and suggestions to keep our search in budget. When our offer was accepted, Phil coordinated the inspection process within a very limited time frame, and even was able to recommend local contractors for some remodeling we opted to do making our new home available to them as we were out of state. He constantly kept us in the loop of closing paperwork and made what could have been a very stressful time for us less so with clear explanations of every step in the relocation process. We would certainly recommend Phil to any friends and family who were looking for a Realtor in the Fountain Hills area. – Jack and Joanne H.

Patient with a good sense of humor

It was a pleasure working with Phil Chadwick from the start of looking for my home to closing. He was very knowledgeable in his field and always answered all my questions. Even when things did not always go smoothly with my lender, he always had a good sense of humor and was most patient. – Evelyn L.
