Dave really cared. He was responsive and super helpful. He even discovered a defect in the house at final inspection the seller had not disclosed that had been under furniture and a rug that inspectors and others missed and then helped us get it fixed right away. I would not hesitate to recommend him or use him again.
As a former realtor for Re/MAX I had been very disappointed in the other realtors I have used since then - both as a buyer and seller. This is not true with Dave - he exceeded all of the expectations my husband and I had. He sold our house in 5 days after it had previously been listed with another MLS agent for several months. He totally handled our home inspection to do list and we did not have to find plumbers, painters, etc... and we paid a very very reasonable price for the minor work that was done. We could not have been happier with Dave throughout the process.
Dave knows The Villages and surrounding areas really well and helped us a lot with our purchase. He was great to talk with on our home search visits and goes above and beyond other agents, and, after the purchase, offered good suggestions regarding the improvements we were considering to make it perfect for us.
Dave listened and was very responsive to all our our needs in a search for our house. He was extremely knowledgeable about the house market and also very knowledgeable about the trades, in case you wanted to buy a house and do any upgrades or desirable changes. He was very patient, available, customer centric, and not pushy at all. We are so happy to have found him by a referral! We love our new house! We would not hesitate to recommend Dave to any of our friends or family. Excellent customer service!!!!
Our home purchase was anything but routine. The sale was complicated by issues involving the previous homeowner, who was difficult to work with and not especially helpful during the process. When the seller missed the first closing, we had a legal opportunity to step away, but we decided to move forward. Throughout it all, Dave was professional, patient, and determined. He worked through the unnecessary drama, stayed in close contact with the seller’s agent, and guided us every step of the way until we finally closed the deal. We are extremely grateful for Dave’s perseverance and support. We are not sure every realtor would have seen this one through, but Dave did, and his dedication made all the difference.
Dave represented us when finding and buying a home in The Villages. Dave could not have been better from the initial consultation, to selecting and touring homes, to providing valuable advice on the offer/deal strategy, all the way through the closing process. He even helped us with a few things post-closing because we needed to head back up north. Dave is very knowledgeable in The Villages real estate market. He is also very knowledgeable with updating/improving homes. Dave routinely was able to provide estimated costs in making various improvements/updates in real time while touring a home, along with offering creative suggestions. With most homes in the Villages needing some level of updating, this was REALLY valuable to us as buyers. Dave is very professional. We felt he was always looking out for OUR best interests even when those interests might diverge from his. I would highly recommend Dave as a realtor.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From day one, Dave demonstrated incredible knowledge of the market and a clear strategy to get my home sold quickly—and that’s exactly what happened. My house sold fast and for full asking price! What really stood out was how easy it was to communicate with Dave. Every question was answered promptly, every step was clearly explained, and I always felt informed and confident throughout the entire process. Dave’s professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands the market, communicates exceptionally well, and delivers outstanding results, look no further. I highly recommend Dave Monty to anyone buying or selling a home!
We strongly recommend the services of Dave Monty as realtor for the sale of a home in central Florida. Dave began the process by carefully reviewing the home and recommending and assisting with changes and corrections which promptly improved the home’s appearance and value. During open houses and buyer visits, he was always involved and a valuable marketing asset. He helped with the closing documents and process, working to solve any questions or problems as they arose. He was always promptly available and a pleasure to work with.
Dave and his team did a great job selling our Courtyard villa in The Villages. He was very professional and had a strong grasp of the overall market in the area. Dave and his team (e.g. Paige!!) were also very responsive to all our questions and provided an informative "weekly report" on showing feedback that kept us well informed, this was very helpful. Overall, it was was a pleasure to work with Dave and His team and we are grateful that they got our Villa sold relatively quickly at a very fair price. We highly recommend the Monty team!
It was a pleasure working with you on the purchase of my retirement home in The Villages. I had been following your YouTube channel for quite some time and was already impressed by how clearly you explain the market with verified facts and genuine expertise—something that’s hard to find. When it came time to buy, you truly listened to what I wanted and needed in a home, and you were most helpful. You guided me through all the unique aspects of buying in The Villages with patience and deep knowledge, making what could have been an overwhelming process feel smooth and stress-free. From start to finish, your professionalism, responsiveness, and care stood out. I couldn’t be happier with my new home or the experience of working with you. I give Dave Monty my highest recommendation—if you’re buying or selling in The Villages, he’s the realtor you want in your corner. Five stars all the way! Thank you again for everything.
I purchased my home while out of state with the help of my sister and brother in law. Dave was very helpful in working with my sister during the process, going through the inspection and follow up on items that needed to be taken care of while keeping me tied in on progress. He provided detailed information I needed to work though the paperwork and closing details.
Very professional and knowledgeable. Staged the property. After unsuccessfully listing with another agent Dave sold the property in two days at the asking price
