Steve really delivers the best in professional, attentive service. He understood that our needs were very specific and out of the ordinary, giving him somewhat of a challenge! . Steve went out of his way to find the house we were looking for while keeping a realistic perspective on our needs and goals.
Our questions and concerns were always answered promptly ( and we had a lot), which we were very impressed with. Steve's decades of experience and personalized service due to having his own company really shines through at every turn.
Thanks to Steve, we have our "one of a kind "dream house!
Sincerely,
Pierce and John Lockwood

I worked with Steve for a period of 4 months while looking for a house. I received daily emails with properties matching my requirements and he was good to work around my busy schedule and show me different properties in the Benton County area. He was honest and pointed out things that I needed to consider when looking at the different properties. He referred me to a mortgage company that worked really quickly to get my loan approved. I would recommend his service to anyone looking to purchase a home.

Steven,
I cannot even say thank you enough for helping us find the home of our dreams. As first time home buyers, especially during these crazy times in the market, we were scared, nervous, and really unsure of what exactly we wanted! With your help and expertise, you helped us narrow down our search and figure out what was really important to us. And then you delivered on everything we requested! We werent the easiest to work with always, because of our inexperience and lack of knowledge about the local market, but you saw us through to every last detail. You made yourself unbelieveably available, no matter what time we requested to meet and searched countless listings until you found homes that matched our needs perfectly. You took all the pressure off us, handling all the details, and your endless knowledge of the market in this area made it certain that we would find the home of our dreams, AND at a great price! And we did! I am absolutely positive that we never would have found this house or gotten the deal we did if you had not been our realtor. I would and WILL recommend you to anyone I know who wants to purchase a home, especially first time buyers, who will benifit greatly from all your knowledge, professionalism, and skills. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts, although even that will never be enough to really thank you for all you've done!
Sincerelly,
Kevin and Michal

Steve,
We wanted to take this opportunity to send you a heartfelt THANK YOU for all you did to find us our perfect dream home! We had tried utilizing many realtors who would show us a house and then fall off the face of the earth when we weren't an easy sell. We knew what we were looking for, and no one seemed to want to help us find our perfect paradise, until we met you! We weren't an easy client as we were NOT willing to settle for less than what we wanted, and you made yourself available at all days and times we asked of you.
We had given up on getting help from a realtor, but then they say, you save the best for last and you are by far, the best in your field!
Your tireless efforts, availability, and expert advice were instrumental in finding our paradise, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sticking with us through the "adventures" of finding our home. We never felt abandoned as we had with all the other realtors we contacted, and you made us feel like we were the most important client you were helping. THAT is worth it's weight in gold! You never gave up, even when we got frustrated and wanted to quit, and we have absolutely no doubt that we would not be in our dream home without you!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU for all you did and God bless you for being there for us!
Jill & Ron Springer

With Steven’s help, we found an excellent investment property and first home in the form of a duplex. From the beginning, Steven was very prompt and knowledgeable. He understood exactly what we were looking for in a home and what we needed in an investment. He offered valuable advice about the current market conditions in Northwest Arkansas. Because of his ability to act quickly, we were able to make an offer hours after our property became available. Steven helped us purchase our property as a short sale. Although short sales can be very complicated, his expertise made this transaction go very smoothly. He helped us negotiate a wonderful deal on our property. Steven exceeded our expectations with his personal service and attention to detail. We recommend Steven to anyone looking to purchase a short sale opportunity, home or investment property in Northwest Arkansas. We look forward to working with Steven as our buyer’s agent again. Michael Davis & Ruby Poole

Dear Steve-
Thank you for your professional help in finding our house in Bella Vista. Your real estate expertise, combined with a deep knowledge of NW Arkansas markets, guided us into a very nice home and neighborhood. We just can't imagine working through the home buying process without the care, patience, and respect you showed us.
When, and if, we ever need to relocate, we will be calling you again.
Thanks for your help!

This has been our 13th move. We can say, without a doubt, Steve Atwell has been the best realtor we have had. Not only did he keep in touch by forwarding lisitings, new listings and updates on listings, he went to the house we ultimately bought, took pictures and called to let us know it had the amenities we were requesting. The service provided before, during and after the sale have been the best. I have already referred my sister-in-law to Steve. We can highly recommend Steve Atwell.

My wife Debbie and I were looking to move to Northwest Arkansas and checked the Internet for realtors and homes for sale. We emailed a number of agents with questions about the homes listed. Some did not answer and some were very short answers – we thought perhaps it was because we were from California and a long distance for any agent to hope for a sale. Mr. Atwell emailed again and followed up with a number of homes for us to peruse and just kept us very informed and aware of what we needed to know. We liked what we saw and how Mr. Atwell presented himself so, we decided to fly to the area and check things out. We stayed four days and Mr. Atwell took us to every home on our list and then some more. He was with us all four days but we did not find a home we liked. After returning to California we kept in touch and continued to receive listings from Mr. Atwell through the internet. Six weeks later with our new list of homes to view we returned to Northwest Arkansas and Mr. Atwell. This time we were successful and Mr. Atwell found a home for us.
It was at this stage of our home buying that we realized we not only had an agent but also a friend. He arranged everything – loan, inspection, utilities, survey, EVERYTHING. We had to return to California and what a blessing it was to have a friend like Steven to watch and handle things that would come up.
After the loan closed and the house was ours he continued to be a friend. While we were in California Steven had our new deck water proofed, the carpets cleaned, the roof checked, the air conditioning repaired and other items too numerous to mention fixed or replaced.
We managed to spend a week in the new place with no furniture but Steven loaned us his inflatable bed and other things we might need then. We purchased a few items of furniture and soon returned his bed –“Thanks Steven”.
My wife and I cannot express the feelings we felt when Steven offered to help us as he did. He is truly more than a Real estate agent and certainly a good friend.

Am considering using Mr. Atwell as my buyer's agent and he suggested I contact you regarding your thoughts on his service. Thank you. Nancy Brown
The following was a reply from a client who asked the above question
I can't say enough about Steve Atwell. My wife and I moved here from Philadelphia approximately a year ago, and thought of finding our dream home in NWA in matter of months. We had a realtor through Lindsey for almost 6 months, but she did absolutely no work. We had to identify the houses that we wanted to see and call her and have her set up appointments. When it came to buy a house that was owned by yet another agent, she was of no help and the contract fell though.
Just when we had given up our hope of finding a house, we saw one that was listed by Steve. It was late one evening and we just called him up from outside the house. We were apologetic for calling so late but he reassured us that it was ok. We wanted to set up an appointment to see the house and once he found out that we were right outside the house, he told us to wait and he came right over to show us the house. He offered to show us some other houses in the neighborhood once he knew what we were looking for. The very same night, he set up a few appointments for us the next day. After looking at a few houses with him, we found our dream home and Steve help us negotiate a price that was below the appraised value.
As any house buyer knows, the story doesn't end there. Steve was instrumental in coordinating home inspection, being on top of all the doccuments (he scans every piece of paper and e-mails you pdf file for your records), and negotiating with the sellers about the repairs. He contacted different companies and obtained quotes for us for different jobs. He found us a nice contractor who will be doing some work for us in the house. He even took care of my 15 months old when she was getting annoyed throughout a lot of these things. With his help and diligence, we closed on this house, and it took only 45 minutes at closing!
My wife and I can't say enough about Steve. We credit him for being the one to finally let us settle down in NWA. He truly is a buyer's agent. We are so impressed with him that I have recommended him to my other co-worker and we are looking for yet another house with him as our agent.
We have bought and sold houses before and have had two different ones in NWA. Believe me, Steve is not what you expect from a realtor. He is genuine, caring, hardworking, and honest. His ethics and loyalty to his clients is impeccable. You will not go wrong working with Steve Atwell.
I hope this e-mail is of some help. If I can be of any further assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you Steve for all your help with our out of state closing. It was very helpful to have someone in the area who was able to refer out for inspectors and other necessary people. We really appreciate all that you did that allowed us to not have to come to Arkansas to buy our beautiful house.
Sincerely,
The Popes

When my husband and I decided to move to Arkansas from across the country I started wondering, how in the world I would ever find a trustworthy real estate agent in a place where I knew no one. I searched the web and found an agent and tried working with her for a couple weeks but, she was just not willing to take any time with me. So, my search started again. Then I found Steve. I called him several times even before leaving the other state and quickly became relaxed with the idea that “He was the right man for the job.” I know we were probably asking a lot of questions and may have been annoying at times but, we had never owned a home before. I was very nervous about everything. Steve never showed any reservation about answering our questions and making the process as easy as possible. I would definitely recommend Steve to anyone considering buying, or selling.

Steve Atwell helped us sell our home in Rogers and because of his knowledge and professionalism we immedately thought of him when it came time to sell our home in Centerton. Steve knows the real estate business in depth and always keeps his clients best interest in the fore front. During the sale of our last home my husband had surgery and was hospitalized for an extended period of time. Steve went the extra mile and made trips to the hospital not only to take care of real estate matters, but also to check on my husbands well fare. Steve also helped us find the perfect townhouse to fulfill our changed live style and looked out for our best interests during the purchasing and loan process. I would highly recommend Steve Atwell to anyone who needs a realtor. He is knowledgeable, concientious and professional.
Sincerely,
Frank and Daveine Burgess

My husband and I have nothing but good things to say
about Steve. We were not sure where we wanted to plant
our seeds, the only thing we were sure about was that
we couldn't agree for the longest. So you can just
imagine how hard that made Steves job. Steve never
gave up on helping us find the right home though and
we couldn't be happier. The thing that impressed me
most about Steve was the fact that he never minded
taking us anywhere or showing us anything at the drop
of a hat. It was always at our convience. We had very
buisy scgedules between work and baseball, but that
never bothered Steve. Feel free to give us a call at
anytime for a reference. Our number is 479-824-3366. I
also must mention the 1/2% that he gave us back at
closing. That came in very handy.

Steve recently helped me find my first home. Steve was extremely flexible and helped work around my busy schedule. Throughout the process he kept in touch with me on the different listings that came available and researched neighborhoods I was interested in. During the offer and closing process he worked closely with the seller, mortgage company, and title agency to make sure everything was timely and the closing went smoothly. I highly recommend his services.

Steve, I often think of the house I have recently purchased, and the part you played in it, and I just makes me smile.
When I decided to "look" at the idea of buying a house in the Rogers area, I really didn't think I would find someone, that has become a friend, who would be so helpful in my "kinda" house search.
As you probably remember, I was on, then off, then on again, and thru it all, you never "flinched". You were there every time I called, and still are. I just want you to know how much I appreciate the efforts you went to, to help me, during the purchase and after as well.
To anyone who is looking for a dedicated agent working to help you find a house, or sell your house for that matter, I cannot recommend him
to highly....He is great, and very dependable..

Over the past two years, I've worked with Steve on the purchase or sale of 9 properties. Steve's attention to detail has been great through each transaction. Unlike experiences I have had with other agents, Steve does not allow anything to fall through the cracks and is a advocate for his customer. I recommend his services.
Thanks, Kerry Laman laman5@cox-internet.com

We thought we could save money by finding a new home on our own when we decided to move to Arkansas from out of state, but when we met Steve at a home he was showing his sincere desire to make sure the house was the perfect fit for us really impressed us. As our agent, Steve went to great lengths to research each property we were interested in and uncover anything that might be of concern. He paid close attention to what we were looking for and didn't waste our time trying to convince us to look at properties that weren't what we wanted. We are extremely pleased with the home he helped us purchase and we won't hesitate to call him again if we buy or sell in the future. Rose and Fred Diaz 2petunia@earthlink.net

Coming to NWA out of state we felt very vulnerable especially not knowing the area. It's hard to uproot and land in an unknown place. A big thank you to Steve and Buyer's First Realty for their professional knowledge of the area. By giving us grids for school systems, you helped us choose a general area to look, and restricted our home search accordingly. We ended up at a neighborhood we loved. Your expertise at negotiating landed us a more than fair deal.
When it was time to sell, we chose you again because we trusted your knowledge implicitly. Even in a "down" market, you sold our home within days. Were we not moving out of the area, we would certainly use you again - and completely recommend with confidence anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Northwest Ar.
Thank you again for your professionalism and advocacy for us in finding a house to call home.

During my career I was transferred many times. During the many moves I bought and sold 52 homes. The transaction with Steve stands out as the very best experience. He is dedicated to his buyers and has their best interest at heart. He walks the talk all the way to the closing table and beyond. It is a joy to work with a buyer's agent rather than a dual agent. I can tell you stories by the hour about dual agents!! Thanks again for great service Steve.

Steve is the most responsive and most honest real estate person we have ever dealt with. He knows his business and answered every question we had or found the answer for us in a minimal amount of time. He was early for every appointment and never failed to return a phone call or an email. We would highly recommend him anyone seeking to buy real estate.
