Reviews

What customers say

Several customers describe helpful, patient support through a home sale; one says a team member helped explain the process, while another says the team worked through challenges and got to closing. One buyer credits Leverage Homes with handling the move and cleanout in the final days before closing. A seller reports that her home was publicly listed on Zillow without her clear knowledge, the open house was poorly handled by a late agent unfamiliar with the property, and Leverage Homes pulled out after refusing to guarantee the original price.

Customer Reviews

Bryan Louis

Truly a pleasure having the Team of Justin, Matt, and Pat from Leverage Homes taking care of the vital aspect of moving/cleaning out the residence on the final days of Closing! Without their efforts there was a chance of our closing day not being a reality (which would have been a disaster on both the sellers/buyers sides)!!! As the Buyers they were completely transparent and gave us their word that the job would get done with no hiccups and they definitely delivered. Sometimes the ones doing the dirty work don’t get enough praise, but in this instance they deserve it all! Thank you again to Justin, Matt, and Pat for all the hard work!

The Crabby Cancer

I bought my place. Felt like it was a mistake. They got in contact with me. Not the other way around. I took a shot and they helped. Took a couple of months. Wasn’t sure when the closing dates were. One person backed out so that made it longer but that wasn’t their fault. But very long story-short, i got to sell it and made a bit of a profit. You gotta know what you’re selling. Don’t expect them to self a crap house and give you gold. I luckily had a decent place, i just didn’t want it anymore. And they helped. Everyone was cool. Even when i was becoming anxious. Would recommend if you’re in a bind and have no way of finding better help

Liz Colangelo

We had a negative experience with Leverage Homes. After an initial offer in May that was too low, we agreed to sell under the condition that they would market the home and close in 120 days, plus 30 days to move out due to the fact we'd be away for the month of July. We were assured multiple times that Leverage Homes would buy the house regardless of whether they found a buyer. Despite being led to believe there would be a private open house, our home was publicly listed on Zillow without our clear knowledge. The open house was poorly managed — the agent arrived late and was unfamiliar with the property. While we were away, they asked for an extension, claiming they hadn’t had time for inspections, even though they knew we would be away. We agreed only if they guaranteed to buy at the original price, which they refused. They pulled out of the contract.

Christine, Wakefield Hynes (CosmicChick, Angelheart)

I had my doubts about this Company as anyone would in this day and age. Scammers are rampant and I've been the victim twice already, but not with this Company. We needed enough money to keep us safe and secure for the future. Leverage has lovely people working for them and they were so patient and understanding with our situation. We had to sell and we're semi-retired, so we needed to be sure it was a good company. They put a woman named Renée in contact with me and she is wonderful. She went above and beyond to educate me about the process and she became one of my angels on this earth. They are highly recommended by us. Thank you for everything, Leverage! Much love and respect too all of you. Christine H.

Ted Skwiat

Our experience with the Leverage team was exemplary in every way. Our exposure was through a cold call by a great young man named Matthew. Normally cold calls are annoying at best. MATTHEW was absolutely a professional and a gentleman. His ability to explain his product in a short period to actually listening to the prospective client started our journey. We transitioned to Joey Szal, who was a delight to speak with. Once again, a professional in listening to the customer and explaining your business advantages are second to none. He was able to navigate my concerns as well as impress me his services are legitimate and worthy of further interest. Once we contracted, we were handed over to Renee, who may be the hardest working saleswoman I know.she was able to find the right buyer for our property. There obviously were challenges for the team. They worked through them and we got to the goal in time to close. I walked away with what we agreed to, what I expected. I am extremely happy with the end result. I whole heartedly would recommend Leverage as a handler of a private home sale. Great people make great teams. This team is excellent.
