What clients say about this agent....
Our experience with Howard was exceptional. He took quick action the moment we hired him to market our condo and to manage the process of selling. Hes friendly and kind. Hes incredibly experienced. From start to finish, he made the experience smooth and easy! You wont find many realtors as effective as Howard.
Howard is a wonderful realtor and friend. Our house went under contract within 5 days of listing with multiple offers. Howard knows the Utah market incredibly well and he understands the ins and out of the real estate process. I would trust Howard with any business transaction I would ever do. He is genuine honest and hard-working. If your looking to buy (which I did) and sell (which we are under contract of now) I would recommend Howard.He was able to get $10,000 more than our listing by waiting for the right offer. We couldnt be happier with him. There is no one else you should be looking for in the Utah real estate market.
Howard was amazing to work with.A A We interviewed multiple agents prior to hiring Howard, and he proved to be more knowledgeable than other agents.A A He got us almost 10% more than what other agents wanted to list the home at and we had a full-price offer and under contract within a week.A A Can't wait to work with Howard again on future transactions.
Howard went above and beyond to make sure we had a positive experience and found a home that we loved. He was very knowledgeable and responsive to all of our questions. He was proactive in researching property values and notifying us when new houses were listed that we might be interested in. At the same time, he was patient and we never felt pressured at all. Howard was flexible to work around our work schedules and to do home showings with relatively short notice. Overall, Howard made our first home purchase a very smooth process, and we would definitely work with him again!
I wanted to be completely honest with my review, for that reason I didn't just put all 5 stars and move on. That being said let's start with the 4 star. Howard always answers questions. I never had the issue of him not answering period. Sometimes it could be around 4 to 5 hours later. Which honestly in the house buying process is, in my opinion acceptable. It never put us in a tough situation having to wait. It is the only thing I would honestly say could use some minor improvement. Howard is by far my favorite realtor that I have worked with. (I had looked at houses off and on for around five years and didn't stay with the same realtor every time I would start looking again. I wanted to see how different realtors handled their businesses.) When I met with Howard Thruston the first time my wife and I were very impressed. However I wasn't able to buy a house again because I was soon laid off from my job. We decided that when it was time to look again that we would go back to Howard because of his ability to be patient and help with literally anything he could. (I once needed to send a fax ASAP and didn't know anyone with a fax machine so I asked Howard for help and he did it no questioned asked. The fax had nothing to do with buying a house.)How is the right guy for anyone for a few reasons:1) He knows the local area well. He was able to tell me which properties to avoid and why they should be avoided. And also which properties were a good deal and should be jumped on if we were interested in what it it offered. He also can help you buy properties that are further away, I bought a house 2 hours from Orem UT, and Howard drove out there 2 times to go through the house with me. 2) Howard Thruston knows the process well, he will let you know ahead of time what to expect and how to prepare so that nothing comes as a big surprise. He also will call weekly while under contract to make sure everything is going smooth. 3) Howard is extremely friendly and easy to get along with. He never made us feel pressured and will go to great lengths to see that the process is not a stressful one. My overall experience was very positive, I recommend Howard Thruston to anyone who is looking at houses. Once he works with you, you want anyone else I promise.
Howard is sharp and doesn't just go through the motions as a realtor. He does this the right way-- it's a full-time job for him. He is looking to make sure your needs get met and won't let you make a bad decision even if you are okay with your decision. He also is caring and every call I made to him or whenever I felt like I was being too needy he would say, "No, it's not a problem. That's what I'm here for." He had the right attitude and perspective on his job. The property I purchased turned out to have way too many hang-ups with the seller, the insurance company, and the lender. There were way more headaches than I realized there were gonna be and Howard all along persevered with a positive attitude. We ended up with 12 addendums to our original contract which I thought would have pushed my realtor over the edge-- but he kept on trucking.He also does check-in calls frequently which I appreciate. And, his secretary was awesome. Whenever he had another appointment and I needed to get into the condo I was preparing to purchase, she would be there opening the place for me.I whole-heartedly recommend Howard and his team. He did a fantastic job.
Howard was great. He got the home listed very quickly and it was done very professionally. The home was listed the same day that we provided him the listing information. Howard was available whenever I needed him or had questions and got the very most possible out of our home. Our home sold in less than 24 hours from the time that Howard listed it and it sold for the full asking price.
We can't say enough about Howard's professionalism, true caring nature, extensive knowledge and connections. He brings all the qualities to the table for his clients on all levels. Howard was extremely responsive and thoughtful in his recommendations to us. We've worked with other realtors, and Howard is the most service-oriented realtor we have worked with. Howard doesn't forget even when you complete working with him and stays in touch with you, helping you in your other efforts. We highly recommend him. We found Howard very helpful during every step of the process. He emanates a sense of trust-worthiness that makes you feel very secured during this involved process. He is a true professional in every sense of the word and puts his clients interests far above his own.
Howard's a very nice, personable guy. This was our first home and we had no idea what we were doing. Howard was patient enough to explain each step of the process to us and help us understand contracts, regulations, and everything else. I'd happily recommend him to friends and family.
Howard Thruston II and his team exceeded our home purchase process expectations. You definitely want to have Howard, Stephanie and Alysse on your team when buying/selling your home. 5 STARS all the way!!!!
