Dan’s the man!

My husband and I just bought a home with Dan as our agent. He was so available to us through a six month search for a home. He never hurried us or made us feel like we were calling or texting too much! He responded quickly to every email and made us viewing appointments as soon as we asked. He was punctual and always ready to share his expertise and opinions with us about the resell values of the homes we looked at. He was very knowledgeable about the different areas in Lexington and gave us sound advice on the pros and cops of living in different neighborhoods. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience!!!

New to Area? Knowledgeable + Energetic + Attentive Agent = Great Result

If you are new to the area and facing the current real estate market you will need a reliable, energetic agent. Want an agent who will put in the time to find your perfect match, then Dan is your guy! He takes the time necessary to understand your orientation as a buyer, teaches you how to shop the market and and then anticipates challenges throughout the process. We were relocating to Lexington and Dan had been referred by several other new to KY buyers at my wife's company. Even before touching down at Bluegrass for my first visit, Dan and I had discussed our lifestyle, Lexington area neighborhoods, time frame for purchase, priority home attributes, etc. Dan helped me build an itinerary so that I could drive around and get a better feel for our new city the day prior to our first day out together. This helped me short list neighborhoods so that we could focus our time on what was relevant. We were also able to start the discussion on short term rental that resulted in a good AirBNB solution that provided us a nice three month window to work the market. Dan would send alerts any time a property matching our profile hit the market, including one that had not yet been listed. Any time we were interested in a property, he was able to schedule a showing within hours that always fit our schedule. This is critical to win in today's hot market. By the time we found our home, we had developed into a high functioning team which was critical to get through the negotiation, mortgage, inspection, closing process, etc. This is an overlooked part of the process, but Dan really made a difference here as he had an uncanny ability to anticipate where we would encounter challenges on the way and prepare for how to mitigate them. We are a week since close and I still communicate with Dan almost every day for support and advice with all the activities that sprout up after your purchase. At this point, I can't imagine having gone through the process with anyone else.

From Chicago to Lexington

We worked with Dan during the summer of 2021 to find a home for our growing family on a tight time frame. From the very beginning Dan was exceptionally responsive, extremely knowledgeable, and we felt he went above and beyond to help us find something quickly in a challenging housing market. Everything with negotiating our offer, to signing the contract, to the closing went smoothly. When we arrived at the new house and were settling in Dan was so helpful with contacts and recommendations for everything from a great electrician to a pediatrician for our children. We will highly recommend Dan to anyone we know in the area who needs a realtor and would absolutely work with him again if we need to buy/sell in the Lexington area. Thank you so much Dan!

Dan is the man

Dan has helped my wife and me buy and sell several rental properties over the past few years. Most recently, he worked minor miracles to find us a new primary residence when the contract we had on a house unexpectedly fell through. Should we ever move again, Dan will definitely be our agent, and here’s why: he is personable, knowledgeable, prompt, and fun to be around; he offers valuable input but is never pushy; and he works tirelessly to help his clients find exactly what they want. Dan is literally the man when it comes to real estate agents.

Endearing Combination of Hustle and Common Sense

I was referred to Dan by my coworkers and he did not disappoint. I was starting a new job and needed to find and close on a home quickly. My husband and I scheduled a weekend visit to Lexington and Dan showed us 14 homes, helping us write offers on 3, the last of which was accepted. Dan is an endearing combination of hustle and common sense. He spent all weekend with us and turned around offers crazy quick. He also warned us when he thought we wanted to offer too much and steered us towards neighborhoods he thought would better fit our lifestyle. He knew all the ticks to get our offer accepted in a crazy market (summer 2021). Dan made our cross country home search easy, painless, and downright enjoyable. We love Dan and would recommend him highly to our closest friends.

Dan has been the most thorough and professional real estate agent we have ever worked with.

Dan really knows this business. Luckily, we found the house quickly and Dan helped us from the beginning of the process to the very end. He put us in touch with the contractors we needed. He communicated with us about all the documents that needed to be signed. He made a very complicated process easy and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with our purchase. Kudos to Dan Elkinson.
