every agent claims to be a top real estate agent, so how do you filter the real ones?

how do you guys tell who's good vs just really good at marketing? i've been looking at recent sales and reviews but not sure if i'm missing something because almost every search brings up agents calling themselves top real estate agents, but the criteria behind those rankings isn't always clear. i'm planning to sell my home but i'm having a hard time figuring out who is worth talking to. some have hundreds of reviews. some highlight sales volume, some have awards or badges i'm more interested in whether they've sold homes similar to mine recently.

Florida sellers/agents: what would you do if your house was getting showings but just wouldn’t sell?

Looking for some outside opinions because I think I’m officially too emotionally involved in this house to look at it objectively anymore. 😂

We have a 3 bed/2 bath, roughly 1,565 sq ft home in Seminole/Pinellas County with a pool. We bought in 2024 and have done quite a bit to it, including new kitchen, bathroom, windows, roof, landscaping/turf, paint, etc.

We moved to the Orlando area for work earlier this year, so the house is vacant and we've been trying to sell it.

We originally listed around $520k and, after several price reductions, we're now at $465k.

Here's what's confusing me: we've had plenty of showings, but no offers. If nobody were looking at it, I'd obviously assume we were just wildly overpriced. But people ARE coming through it. We just can't seem to get anyone to pull the trigger.

There is one major complication: the house has leased solar. The payment is around $250/month and there are a lot of years remaining on the agreement. The system can be transferred to a qualified buyer, but I'm wondering how much this is hurting us. Prepaying it isn't really an option because the quote we received was over $100k.

At this point we're trying to decide what the market is telling us.

Do we:

  • Drop the price again?
  • Hold at $465k for a while?
  • Offer a buyer concession instead of another price reduction?
  • Take it off the market and rent it?
  • Potentially explore a lease-option/rent-to-own situation?
  • Do something differently to address the solar objection?

For the Florida agents/buyers/sellers here: when a house is consistently getting showings but not getting offers, what does that usually tell you?

I'm also curious how much of a deterrent you're seeing leased solar being in Florida right now. Would it personally stop you from buying an otherwise good house?

I'm not trying to advertise the property here, so I'm intentionally leaving out the address/listing. I'm genuinely looking for feedback because we've reached the point where continuing to randomly cut the price without understanding why buyers aren't converting doesn't feel like much of a strategy.

First time home buyer / military veteran

I want to use any benifits possible when buying my home to take some of the pressure off the price. I’m 80% disabled veteran and also a first time buyer. Credit it good and make enough to cover expenses. Home I’m trying to buy is 680k- 720k. Who can I sit down with to help me use all benefits possible in Florida as a vet.

I've found pools adding around 17 percent, or roughly $100,000, across eight Sarasota County communities.

I've been looking at pool home sales over the past year or two in a few Sarasota County communities and, as a resident and an agent (with Putnam Realty Group), there seems to be a misconception about how much a pool affects home values.
Using public records, I looked at 204 single-family resales across eight communities. I compared homes of similar size within each community, so the difference isn't simply because the pool homes were larger. Every community showed pool homes selling for more, with a median difference of about $99,550, or roughly 17%.
Sarasota National in Venice had the biggest gap, about $178,000, while Palmero in Nokomis was much smaller at about $65,000. And I know this doesn't mean the pool itself is worth the entire difference. Lot location, water views and upgrades can obviously be part of it.
So I'm curious, for those of you in other parts of Florida, are you seeing anything similar? Does having a pool seem to make this much difference in your local resale market, and if so, is the difference mostly in newer construction?

Fake Buyer Scams?

My house in Naples has been on the market for a year. Today I came home to find two nice guys trimming the trees in my backyard (it was desperately needed!), so, half hoping that some good samaritan had hired them to trim my trees out of the goodness of his or her heart (I know...I know), I went out and asked them why they were here.

They said that they received a text from someone called "Jimmie Garza" who mentioned the name of one of the landscapers' friends and said he was friends with him. It went something like this:

"I'm a friend of Juan Diaz, and he said you were the best. I just purchased a property at <my address>, and I was wondering if you could go over there and trim the trees." So, without checking into it any further, this landscaper just came on over and started hacking away at my trees! He didn't even bother to call his friend to find out if he knew this Jimmie person.

So I asked him to call this guy, and when he answered in a thick African accent (I'm guessing Nigerian), I got a bad feeling. I verified the address with him and asked why he sent these guys to trim my trees. He said he just purchased my property and that I needed to talk to my realtor for the details. I told the guys to stop working immediately, that they were being scammed, and I called my realtor. When she tried calling the guy back, the phone had been disconnected. Then the landscaper tried calling him...same thing.

I felt so bad for the guys, because they had done quite a bit of work, and because this house has eaten up every last bit of my savings, I couldn't even offer them a tip. (It was my parents' home, and I didn't expect it to be on the market for this long, but that's another story for another time.) But I did offer them some advice. Never do any work without some kind of surety guarantee, or even better, payment up front!

Anyway, has anyone heard of this sort of scam before? If so, what is the endgame? What are they hoping to gain from doing this? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
