Crystal Bends is the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations while selling my house. Her communication was clear and made the selling process very easy to understand. Crystal always made me feel like her top priority, even though I knew she was hard at work with her other clients too!! I highly recommend buying or selling a house with Crystal Bends!

Crystal is amazing. From the moment we met her she learned what our timeline was and worked with us as we navigated the home search to settling on "the one". From closing the loan to opening the front door she was by far the best realtor we have ever hired. Knowledgeable, trustworthy and reliable. If you are looking for a realtor call Crystal!

After talking to four real estate agents, I was a bit discouraged. I believed my property was worth more than these agents suggested. These agents also believed my property would be on the market for a very long time before I got my asking price, if ever. I had spent two years of very hard work and over $20,000 to prepare for sale. Then, along came Crystal Bends! She was very positive and had a total "can do" attitude. She saw same positives in my property that I did. Her attitude was like a breath of fresh air. Her handling of the marketing of my property was in every way outstanding. Crystal found a buyer for my asking price within five days. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

My wife and I (then fiance) were first-time home buyers. Crystal proved to be a perfect fit for us because she was thorough, patient and knew when to push us in the right direction. She's willing to work very hard for you, and I can say that I truly appreciated her willingness to advocate for us time and time again during negotiations.It was a stressful process given that we'd never been through anything like this before, but she did an excellent job of navigating us through the process. We love our home and think we're situated in a great spot largely because of Crystal. My mom is looking to buy a home and Tallahassee now, and I've entrusted Crystal as the one to help her find a perfect place.

Crystal Bends went above and beyond throughout the home-buying process and we would recommend her to anyone -- especially first-time homebuyers.We were first-time homebuyers, so this was an intimidating process for us. Crystal, however, made it as smooth as possible. She was attentive (she was always readily available to show a house, to get a document signed, or to pick up her phone and answer one of our numerous questions), thorough and always stepped up to make sure our needs were met. There were some issues after the sale was finalized that needed to be attended to, and Crystal was diligent in making sure things were finalized. We found Crystal to be sweet but assertive when needed, flexible and just extremely professional overall. We love our new home and are thankful that Crystal worked so hard to make it happen for us. If the time comes for us to sell our home, we will confidently go with Crystal again.

Do you want searching for and purchasing a home to be as anxiety-free as it possibly could be? If so, then I would definitely recommend using Crystal as your realtor. My fiancee and I were not even initially looking to immediately purchase a home when I came upon a home Crystal had listed herself as an agent that ticked all of the boxes we knew we would one day be looking for in our "forever" home. Crystal was superbly responsive from my initial text to her at 10:00 p.m. the night I saw the home (asking whether the home had a good-sized yard) to meeting me for an appointment to actually view the home less than 24 hours later. On top of that, once I stepped inside the home and immediately fell in love, Crystal was kind, patient, and helpful. As a first-time homebuyer, I had many questions for her, and she answered them all honestly (and, we later found, correctly!)Crystal told me that if we wanted the home, we would have to move on it fast - because it was priced so reasonably. She gave honest, unexaggerated, well-reasoned advice, but (and I appreciated this) - did not rush me or my slower-to-commit fiancee into a decision. She was also extremely patient, sitting with me inside of the home for 45 minutes while we waited for my fiancee to drive to the home from the other side of the city so he could see it before the next day.As we moved forward with the purchasing process, Crystal also showed her commitment to ethical dealings. She, representing both myself as the buyer and the sellers, too, was not present in the room when the sellers were given our offer (because she did not want to inappropriately influence their decision in any way). I respected this. Further, I appreciated how I felt Crystal treated both the sellers and my fiancee and I equally - but equally wonderfully. I never felt as if she put the sellers first, but I also never felt that I was treated with anything other than kindness, respect, and a straightforward demeanor.Further, every recommendation Crystal made regarding the process (from the appraiser to the financer) was on-point and professional. We did hit a small snag with one of Crystal's recommendations (an honest human error), and Crystal, when we told her of the issue, acted immediately to help solve it. As this was my first homebuying experience, I have no other experience to compare it to. However, I would not hesitate to purchase a home again because of how smoothly this purchase went - in large part, I believe, to Crystal and her tireless efforts, constant communication, and personable demeanor. Thank you, Crystal!

From the beginning, Crystal was the best. I was a realtor years ago and I knew we needed someone to protect our interest in the selling process. I had met Crystal through our pet therapy program and when I let her know we were going to sell there was no pressure. She just said, "Let me know when you are ready".When the time came, she explained all the documents and procedures completely. She showed up with a car full of accessories and staged the house beautifully. A professional photographer came in and between the two of them, they made the house look like something out of the pages of a magazine.As the offers started to come in, Crystal was an excellent negotiator. When the contract happened she kept everything on track and helped us keep things in perspective.I can't imagine a better experience in selling a home. We only wish we could take her with us for our next purchase out of state.Thanks CrystalPeggy and Bill

Crystal worked diligently to find me a home that fit my needs -- location, size and individual preferences. During the negotiation and buying process, she was always available to answer questions and help make sure I received fair treatment and paid a fair price.

When I began the process of buying my first home, I was searching for someone patient, knowledgeable, and with whom I could truly enjoy the experience with. I wasn't sure where to start, but knew someone through work that was in the field. I gave Crystal a call and as she was talking me through things to think of and how the process works, I knew instantly that she and the company she worked for was exactly what I was looking for. Crystal is kind, sharply intelligent, and has been trained by some of the best in her work with Sarah Eden Realty. She makes the search for a new home fun and the buying process a breeze. So many friends and family had told me that buying a house was "so stressful, but worth it" -- I never once had that experience. Not only was it easy, but I enjoyed it. If I didn't love the home we found so much, I would honestly be excited about doing it all over again! Crystal and Sarah Eden Realty are class acts, business savvy, and provide the personal touch you hope for. I would recommend Crystal a thousand times over; if and when the time ever comes to sell my house and buy another, I would choose Crystal Bends every time!
