The right realtor makes all the difference! Gregg Martin is knowledgeable about the Real Estate market and as a life-long resident he knows Gainesville and the surrounding area, better than anyone I have met. He helped set the right purchase price and provided guidance for staging prior to putting the property on the market. The condo sold in about a week. He was also extremely helpful in the purchase of a new home. Gregg provided input about each property and the area it was in as well as providing guidance on the purchase price for placing an offer. He answered all questions and went above and beyond in following up with the seller. I am happily settling into the home of my dreams. If you are considering buying or selling a home, contact Gregg Martin, Saxon Realty. You won’t be sorry.

Situation: I decided to offer the seller exactly the amount they demanded conditional on the seller completing all remedial work needed to make the house “move-in ready”. The wife occupied the house and was responsible for getting the house sold. What we did not know was the wife did not want to sell and would do everything possible to sabotage the sale. The dumpster loads of junk and wrecked cars on the property were part of a strategy to scare away prospective buyers. However the husband and his children of the previous wife were adamant it be sold. Gregg’s efforts to bring this sale to completion and protect my financial interests was EPIC. It took seven months from the seller’s acceptance of my offer to actually close the deal. In the end the sellers agreed to pay the interest down to what it was at the at the time the contract was signed (11k), pay in cash at closing the cost of the unfinished repairs (6k), and forfeit all property not removed by closing. Gregg’s extensive research uncovered many instances of work done without permits or inspections, health code violations, and incorrect property line fences that reduced the size of my lot. He spent a great deal of effort to clean up the “clouds” on the property title that might hinder financing the mortgage. I am certain Gregg could have made far more money if he had expended this much effort on easier transaction. But he used his extensive knowledge and tenacity to force the completion of my home purchase on favorable terms. Highly recommended.

I have sold and bought several houses with Greg. He is very reliable. He is great with communication and explaining the different aspects of selling and buying a house.

Gregg aided us with the purchase of our home in Gainesville in July 2019, and when it was time to move in March of 2024, he helped us with the sale as well. He made certain that both transactions went smoothly, keeping in regular contact through all phases, and was always available anytime we needed to talk with him. Even though we never spent time outside of our business dealings, we still consider Gregg to be our friend. We would not hesitate to have him represent us again, and recommend him to anyone in need of an honest, personable agent.

I was the buyer and Gregg was the seller’s agent, yet he fielded all my questions and even provided me with contact information for utilities and various other local services and contractors. He was very easy to work with and I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Gregg had such a challenge with my new property but took great care of everything and made sure everything was done as it should have been! I would recommend Gregg to anyone for buying or selling! He knows what he is doing and will definitely go to bat for you and make sure you get in a great property!

Gregg did a great job at getting the house listed and sold. We had a cash offer over asking price within 18 hours of the house being listed, and we closed less than a month later. Gregg made sure we were in the loop throughout the entire process and answered any questions he we had. I would highly recommend Gregg to anyone who is looking for a realtor!

As my realtor Gregg really looked out for my best interest. He kept me informed the whole time.

I have bought and sold numerous houses in many different states over the last 3 decades, but this last experience is by far the absolute best experience! Greg is not only highly experienced and professional, but he actually listens, cares, and is ready, willing and able to do all the hard work and research necessary to get you exactly where you need and want to be. Let me say that the sale of our home would have never gone as smoothly and as profitable as it did if we had anyone else selling our home. Greg is so on top of things, that he even noticed a mistake on the appraisal of our property that went all the way back to a square footage error involving the city. This was not an easy thing to correct, but Greg knew exactly what had to be done, and he wasted no time in contacting the appropriate people and taking the necessary steps to get the situation resolved! Which of course…resulted in our getting a much higher sales price. Easy and personable to deal with, yet tough as nails when he needs to be. You won’t find anyone better! Highly recommended!!!

I have known Gregg for what seems like a life time, not only has he been a good friend but when it comes down to business he is very professional, upfront and will not allow you to be pressured into doing things that aren't necessary. The day before listing the home on the market, I received a call that someone was interested. We listed the home on a Monday, Showed the home on Tuesday and had a contract on Wednesday for full asking price! The buyers had a FHA loan, so we knew due to Gregg's experience and knowledge going forward what needed to be repaired or replaced prior to inspection. There were times when I thought I was going to have to back off the contract, but he kept encouraging me and explaining to me that it was part of the process and everything would be alright (even when I panicked when the inspector was on the roof - with no safety equipment or when the inspector was taking the cover off the breaker box to view wiring Lol!). In addition to being my Realtor and having 21 years experience, he was willing to offer small helpful hints to the Buyers Realtor as he was new to the business and this was his first sell. Gregg went way above my expectations to get my home sold, we faced challenges head on and he backed me when it came to being pressured by the Buyers Lender. Even when he had things going on in his personal life, Gregg was available for me to contact at anytime during the day or night. I believe that God places certain people in your life for certain reasons. He placed my friend Gregg in mine to be my calm during the storm and get my home sold! I'm very blessed to call him and his wife my friend...and my Realtor!!! Excellent Job!!!!

If you want to get something done - Gregg is the guy!!! I am so lucky to have found him.

Gregg is incredible to work with. I am so lucky to have bought a house with such a fantastic agent who managed our purchase through every step. Answered my questions. So grateful.
