What clients say about this agent....
I am happy to shout from the rooftops that Fran is THE BEST in the business! We had a tall order of selling our 100 year old house and buying one that would fit our growing family. We are so thrilled that we had Fran guiding us during the whole experience. Fran went above and beyond to get things done! During times of stress, Fran was so good at shooting straight with us, talking facts, and helping the sale to move forward. Not only did Fran work well with us, she was knowledgeable, professional and organized with other agents/lenders/lawyers. We always felt protected by Fran, even our real estate lawyer who had not worked with her before was impressed with her work ethic. Not one single detail was missed by Fran, and she kept everyone aware of progress, deadlines and documents. I cannot express enough how happy we are to have worked with Fran, she feels like apart of our family, even our dog smiles when she is around! Buying and selling is never easy, but if you want an agent who will guide you through the process with empathy, drive and years of experience, Fran is your girl! We will reccommend Fran to family and friends and will work with her again in the future without reserve. Thank you so much Fran for going above and beyond and making our dream home a reality!
Fran is a delight to work with. Professional and personable! She brings a wonderful personality along with her professionalism and knowledge of the real estate market! Working with her throughout this process eliminates all of the unknowns. Highly recommended Furthermore, she guided us through the process from beginning to end along with pricing, knowledge of homes built in given areas etc.
Fran worked tirelessly to find the right house for us and finally succeeded! During our long search, her advice on making offers and in other situations was just what we needed and her constant optimism and encouragement made a huge difference. She was much more knowledgeable about South County and the East Bay than the other realtors we used before we met her. We can?t recommend her highly enough and we will always be grateful for what she did for us.
We have bought and sold a few homes across three different states. Among the different realtors we have worked with over the years, Fran really stood out. Her experience, knowledge of the area, and ability to understand customer needs really impressed us. Due to the circumstances of our most recent relocation, we were only able to visit RI twice before we purchased. Working with Fran gave us the trust and confidence that we were in good hands. Fran was diligent in understanding our needs - she sent us several listings of properties for review and asked insightful questions to understand what we were looking for. She then steered us towards areas and properties that had what we were looking for, saving us a ton of aimless searching. When it came time to make an offer, Fran was able to leverage her experience and her knowledge of the market as she advised us on how we should navigate the bidding and negotiation process. One thing that impressed me the most about Fran was the longitudinal relationship. She truly seemed committed to ensure that our relocation went smoothly, going above and beyond the real estate transaction itself. Without hesitation, I would recommend Fran to someone seeking a realtor with expertise, experience, and insight.
Fran is an incredible person and realtor. From the moment we first spoke on the phone, she immediately made us feel like family. She was not only a trusted advisor, but also a guiding light through the often daunting process of buying a house for the first time. Fran went above and beyond to educate us and reassure us during the process, and her patience and guidance paid off when she lined up a showing for a house that ended up becoming our dream home. She also helped us win the bid in a very competitive process by helping us structure a great deal for the builder . In short, we couldnt have asked for a better realtor than Fran. Anyone who has the opportunity to work with her should consider themselves lucky. She is truly the best of the best!
Fran was an absolute god send! My fiance and I were first time homebuyers and she helped us every step of the way. She even helped us find a lender, insurance agent and a lawyer. She was extremely knowledgeable and was such an amazing resource for us. She spent hours with us on the phone and looking at houses, she made us feel like her #1 priority always. In the end Fran found us the home of our dreams even in this market. I can?t recommend her enough!
Fran is truly an expert who knows every detail in the local market and what we really needs. She is friendly and always responded to our questions promptly. As we are new to Rhode Island and never buy a house previously, Fran did introduces all regions of the Rhode Island and let us know which places are more suitable to accommodate our needs. Whenever we want to give an offer to the listed houses, she could made suggestions and always protect us in all aspects. More importantly, she helped us inspect the house and did point out the advantages and pitfalls of the potential buying, which saved us a lot of time. Overall, we cannot be more happier working with Fran in the past few months. Please consider working with Fran if you want to sell/buy a house, she is the best. Highly commended.
Fran is amazing, she has in-depth knowledge of the area, you ask her about anywhere around Rhode Island and she is able to provide information. She has great relationship with other real estate agents, banks and really everyone. She was God sent to us and helped us in a really big way in getting us our first home. Even after the sale, she keeps in touch, checks in, I have appreciated dealing with her immensely and if you are looking for an amazing agent who has your interest in heart please look no further, Fran is simply the best!!
After living in our house for 37 years, my husband and I decided to downsize. Our house was new when we purchased it so the whole process of hiring and working with a realtor was foreign to us. We looked at new models in a 55 and up community and loved the models. By chance, online I found a resale in that community. We toured it and loved it even more. A few days later my husband and I wanted to make an offer. I contacted Remax to see if it was still available and by chance spoke to Fran Bidell. She returned with us to look at the resale and we made an offer which was accepted. We closed on the house six weeks later. During that time we started the process of purging and packing our house and looking for a realtor to sell it. We met with a number of realtors including Fran and she definitely stood out in the crowd. We admired her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a house. She made suggestions for staging and had many contacts which were needed to get our house ready for selling. Her photographer was excellent and our house looked beautiful. She began showing our house by appointment on Wednesday and had an offer on Friday that was $5000 above our asking price. We accepted. Fran was always quick to respond to our inquiries and that?s what impressed us the most. To have someone guide us every step of the way was very comforting for what was a stressful event. She was always focused on answering our questions and giving us good advice. She responded quickly to every call, email or text no matter what time of the day or night. Her professionalism, knowledge of the community, relationships with tradespeople, and her hard work was much appreciated. Her sense of humor was an added benefit and stress reliever. We would highly recommend her as a realtor for purchasing or selling a house.
I have loved Fran?s no-nonsense coaching and feedback for my last three moves! She knows the local markets and is committed to helping you succeed as both buyer and seller. She is never afraid to roll up her selves and help as well as go to bat in negotiations.
