Working with Phil Herman has exceeded any of my expectations. As a first time homebuyer, I was not familiar with the terminology or the process. Phil was very helpful in explaining the entire process and really relieved my stress level. Right away Phil was incredibly friendly and took the time to sit down with my partner and I to determine what would be a good fit for us. Phil was always willing to meet us anytime of the day to help us find our dream home. I truly believe his expertise helped tremendously in our offer getting accepted. I highly recommend Phil Herman!!!

We were 1st time home buyers & Phil was beyond helpful. He explained everything to me, answered my many questions & was patient while waiting for us to find the home we’d been looking for. He remained in contact with us, even after the sale was all done & continued to help us when things came up that we needed a little more understanding of. Highly recommend Phil.

Phil was recommended to us by friends & he was wonderful! It was our 1st time purchasing a home. He made it so easy & everything went smoothly. We were looking for something specific & it took a year for this to become available. Phil stayed in constant contact with us & was extremely patient & understanding with the wait. He answered my many questions promptly & helped us understand the process. Even after we were moved in he has stayed in contact with us, offering any help we may need. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a great realtor.

It's been great! I could tell right away how knowledgeable Phil is. He talked me through the process, told me what to expect, and set up a custom search for us so that we'll be notified of properties that go on the market in our price range and desired area right away. We feel immediately comfortable with Phil and trust that he'll help us find what we're looking for.

The purchase of a home with multiple offers. I trusted that Phil would do his job in closing the CASH purchase of a home, which would have given a domino effect for him to list my current property for sale. However, he "was busy" on the most important day for a realtor to working. The day a decision was to be made between 3 offers. There was no follow up to see where our offer stood, no communication with the listing agent until I was told they took a different offer and we should "just wait to see what happens." Any seasoned realtor knows in Indianapolis that inventory is low and a deal needs to be struck but apparently Phil had no desire that day to work for his client. Again, "he was busy" that day. I spent roughly 6 months looking at homes with him to loose a deal on the ONE viable home I found. I had to contact the listing agent myself as he provided no follow up to an email he received from the listing agent. I found out after speaking with her that Phil's addendum to the offer was taken as condescending & sarcastic in which the seller thought the CASH buyer would be hard to work with. Generally, that burns the deal before it happens. I'm incredibly displeased with his services. The only real day the realtor needs to shine he fails. I would not wish this on any future potential clients. Should you choose to submit offers with Phil I would STRONGLY recommend being in direct contact with the listing agent yourself.

Phil Herman is a fantastic real estate professional! He was on top of every detail throughout the entire real estate transaction. Since we live out of state, Phil provided excellent communication every step of the way. Everything went smoothly because of Phil's attention to detail. I would use Phil again in a heartbeat and I would recommend him to others without hesitation.

Phil was the obvious choice for us as our agent given the positive experience we had with him while buying our house. He goes above and beyond for us in helping us getting the house ready, advising us, and ultimately closing on selling our house. He is a tireless worker, has your best interest at heart, is honest, and builds long lasting relationships. We felt very comfortable with him throughout the whole process each time working with him. We are sad that his services don't extend to Texas!

As a first time home buyer I was filled with questions and anxiety about my first purchase. I'm beyond thankful for Phil. He's extremely knowledgeable and beyond patient. Through out the entire process he took the time to work with me and my fiance so we felt comfortable moving forward and purchasing our house. I felt he had our best interest in mind when offering us advice on possible purchases and was incredibly attentive. I truly love our new house and if there ever comes a time that we are in need of a real estate agent Phil will be my only call.

Phil was amazing. As first time home buyers, we felt taking care of with Phil. His patience and expertise really took the fear out of home buying. He was personable and answered any questioned we had, big or small. I would recommend Phil to anyone looking to buy home. He helped find the perfect home for us!

Phil was awesome. I was coming off of speaking with another agent for a couple of months and had a bad taste in my mouth about the entire home buying experience. I was really seeking out an agent who was extremely knowledgeable and would advise properly on my first home purchase. Phil did exactly that. Not only was he very knowledgeable but he will never make you feel like you are taking up too much of his time. He is extremely patient and you can tell he legitimately has your best interest at heart.

Phil is highly professional, knowledgeable, and an all around good guy. He helped us find a suitable rental property when we moved to Indiana in 2012, and more recently, provided invaluable insight and advice in connection with the purchase of our new house in Zionsville in 2016. He is an excellent realtor.

Phil is the best to work with - He really thinks in terms of the best interests of his clients. Additionally, we felt no pressure to buy as he was patient while we took time to get to know the area. In fact, he pointed out factors to consider when we weren't aware of them. he is extremely trustworthy and a joy to work with. His knowledge of the area and willingness to help is refreshing. he was easy to work with - we highly recommend him. James and Jennifer Ford

Phil Herman has got to be one of the best realtors out there. He continually did his homework on the homes that fit my criteria and remained readily available for showings and and general conversations. His commitment to his clients is unparalleled to many others out there; he goes the extra mile (even working on his birthday) to accommodate the needs of his clients. Additionally he remains in constant communication and let's you know exactly where you stand; as a first time home buyer he kept me honest and looked out for my best interests. Further, he stays with his clients throughout the whole process and makes sure to execute the follow-through. Phil is incredibly professional and punctual - he understands that time is precious and will work with your schedule. He's not just a realtor, he takes the time to get to know you and is always looking to better the lives of his clients. He not only helped me find the right house, he is still working with me as I take on some new home projects - he is very well liked within the realtor community and is highly resourceful. I highly recommend him as your realtor and to get to know him - I will only work with Phil here on out.

Right from the start Phil was very approachable and accessible day or night. Buying a home for the first time can be a daunting task but Phil made it as smooth as possible. His knowledge of various types of homes and engineering background went a long way in helping us obtain a great home. Not only did Phil ease our anxieties he went above and beyond making sure we got the best deal possible. I doubt other agents would've been as attentive to our questions and needs as Phil was. We went to see quite a few houses and Phil was always ready to meet at a moment's notice, be it 9 in the morning or 9 at night. Additionally, Phil has a vast network of solid and reliable inspectors, plumbers, electricians, and other housing professionals to call upon when looking at a home. He was very accessible day and night, and even made trips to Lowe's with us for odds and ends! He even spent an evening helping us install lights and change locks! He negotiated a fantastic closing deal for this house and his knowledge and expertise in houses and real estate was a God send. I relied heavily on his advice throughout the inspection and I'm very glad I did. I highly recommend Phil.
Description of Work: Phil Herman was our realtor when buying our first home. The 0 dollars cost of service is due to the fact that he was paid a percentage from the sellers. Phil did walk throughs, provided us an inspection, went to various houses with us as we searched for our new home. Helped us close on the house and walked us through all the legal paperwork surrounding buying a house.

Phil Herman is highly competent and professional. From the time we contacted Phil, he took care of all details and guided us through the process of buying and working with our builder. He was present for all meetings and went above and beyond our expectations of him. Although I had purchased and built a home 20 years ago, there was much to be learned from Phil's expertise. He has been in the field long enough to wisely guide clients through the latest in real estate and building inevitable and unexpected issues. He was never in any way pushy or abrasive. He always both anticipated and listened to our needs. Whenever we needed him, Phil was a quick phone call away and always offered to meet us at any time. Without Phil's help, I am quite certain that we would have made quite a few mistakes in our purchase and in new home option selections. In fact, we would have been wise to contact Phil and secure his services much sooner in our new home search. We love our new home and we are very grateful for Phil's help. I highly recommend Phil Herman!
Description of Work: Phil was our realtor for the purchase and process of building a new home. The listing of $0.00 for his service is reflective of the fact that we were the buyers. His commission is provided by the seller. Although he worked for us, his commission is a part of the sale itself and not a charged service to his clients.

Phil was fantastic. He was very thorough and provided great information and insight. He also provided the right amount of space to allow me to make a decision, while staying close enough to assist. The home buying experience was a very good one--and I will use Phil again when I am ready to sell this house.

Both transactions, sale & purchase went very well. It was great to have Phil there through the construction process. I would ALWAYS advise a client to have REALTOR representation when dealing with a builder and Phil has great knowledge and experience with the construction process. He was definitely an asset to have in our corner through the process.
Description of Work: Phil represented us on the sale of our current home & purchase/build of our new home. He is an expert in his field and respected by his peers. I have the unique perspective of not only being a client, but also knowing him from the industry, as my line of work (mortgage financing) is connected to real estate. Any one that knows Phil thinks highly of Phil!

Phil Herman is the best realtor we've ever worked with. He is knowledgable and personable and considers all angles. His professional network is extensive and he is always offering suggestions for who to contact for certain services. We had a very short amount of time to find a house and Phil worked around the clock to make sure we would close before our baby was born. Phil has a good eye for details and walked through each house with us, pointing out things that could be problematic. We highly recommend Phil to all our friends who need a realtor.
Description of Work: As our realtor, Phil found a house that met all our requirements and also sold our old house.
