Thanks to several foreclosures in the neighborhood, the value on my home dropped considerably since I purchased it in 2006. In needing to sell my home to move out of state for a better job offer at the beginning of this year, I was rather leery about the whole short-sale process, but couldn't see any other way. Hank was great, though. I had an offer on my home after one DAY on the market! After that, it was the waiting game and haggling with the mortgage company. Hank was really encouraging and on top of things throughout the process. He's definitely a pro when it comes to short sales. If ever I need a home again in GA, he'd be the first one I'd contact! And I'll definitely be referring him to any friends in the area who need a realtor, as well...

Hands down Hank Bailey is the best of the best! My fiance and I were starting our journey of buying a home and as first time home buyers we had a ton of questions and not sure which direction to go in. After working with two other agents I was left hopeless. I found Hank online and after reading such great reviews decided to give him a call. IMMEDIATLEY he made me feel comfortable and confident that he would find us exactly what we wanted. He was ready to search and find us the home of our dreams. No matter what time it was Hank was available. I never imagined an agent would be so prompt in responding to all texts, emails and phone
calls... We were never left with a single question unanswered and he spent every mintute he needed to making sure we were informed and educated every step of the way.
Hank made us feel like we were family and he had our very best interest at heart. After reading other reviews on Zillow my fiance joking told me "Hey we arent that special after all, Hank treats everyone this way"! I wouldnt expect anything less :) There is not a chance in the world we would be in the house we are if it wasnt for Hank. He knows what he is doing and he made things happen that other angents said couldnt happen! So if your looking to buy or sell you better make sure you are ready because Hank is a very motivated agent who will not rest until you and your family get exactly what you want!!!!!
Thank you Hank,you have set the bar for agents in this industry and we cant thank you enough!

Extremely Responsive, Thorough, Honest, Hard-Working and a Great Communicator. Doesn't "shoot-from-the-hip" like too many others. A great credit to his profession and someone I would highly recommend to family members - wait, I did!

Hank Bailey has been great to work with during the listing of my home. I have worked with Hank twice on selling my home and he is very knowledgeable and responsive to all request and did a great job in listing, advertising and fielding all appointments, offers in a timely manner. He broke down each offer for me and gave me his advice. I would recommend Hank to anyone that is in the market to sale their home. His approach is straightforward and he gets great results!

We've now had the pleasure of working with Hank on both ends of real estate ... selling and buying! Hank helped us list our home for $25k over what we purchased our home for just 11 months prior in this "downturned economy". Within 2 hours of putting a for sale sign in the yard, we had our first showing set up for the following day. The house then went under contract less than 2 days later. As if that wasn't great enough, it went under contract for our asking price!!
I tell EVERYONE I talk to to hire Hank! We even call him "Hank the Tank" in our home because he doesn't mess around and we think he's just amazing! He gets the job done efficiently and is so very helpful during the entire process. Plus, if you can sell a home for more than most around you that quickly during a buyers market, that's an outstanding real estate agent to have on your side!
To top it all off, Hank also found us a home exactly like we wanted and helped us negotiate to get it for the price we wanted! We can't say enough wonderful things about him.
He's on the top of his marketing game for homes, and he's incredibly knowledgable and friendly too! ;)

Just finished your reveiw, 5 Stars! Thank you for all you have done and our sincere gratitude to all who helped. Hank although some times it seemed as if the short sale might fall apart, you always reassured us and helped us understand the process and I appreciate all your hard work, so believe me when I say I wouldn't hesitate to ask you to help us again in the future.

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!! Hank is the best! He sold our home in less than 48 hours of it being on the market!
Not only did he help us with the selling of our previous home he also helped us find a new home and did fantastic negotiating for us from the sellers. I highly recommend Hank and will be more than happy to present him with new leads in the event that someone wants to buy or sell a home. I cannot say enough good things about Hank. He works hard and is always available when we need him.

Hank was truly professional is all senses. He listened carefully during our first meeting and adjusted his showings. He moved quickly once we made a decision and followed up thru an inordinate number of steps and delays. He negotiated on our behalf with not only the seller but the inspector and handyman. We are delighted with the result and the extra service. We will be using him in North Fulton county as well as Clarke County in the future. Highly recommend !

From day one, Hank Bailey had me convinced that he would find my wife and me the perfect house for us - and he delivered! His excellent negotiating skills landed us a beautiful home within our budget - a home we never would have seen without Hank driving the search. I had always heard that short sales were very unpleasant, and while this one was no walk in the park, Hank's guidance, professionalism and constant contact kept us assured the whole way. I am extremely pleased with our home buying experience and with Hank Bailey - as a professional and as an individual. He will always be highly recommended by me as well as my wife.

The very first time that my husband and I met with Hank, we were immediately impressed with his knowledge, insight and determination to get our family the perfect house. Throughout the entire process of searching and purchasing, Hank's daily emails and updates kept us confident that the process was moving along and he was working hard for us behind the scene. There were countless late night emails, phone calls and hours that our short sale required. Thankfully, Hank was the realltor for the job; he got everything accomplished in perfect timing. Before we had even closed, my husband and I were already reccomending Hank- we will continue to do so and we look forward to using him in the future.

With out hesitation, I recommend Hank Bailey to anyone in need of assistance with their property sale or purchase. I recently found myself in the position of needing to short sale my home and after much research & speaking with many real estate agents it was a pleasure and relief to work with Hank on this critical sale.
From our first conversation it was so clear that Hank has an extensive understanding of the intricacies of the short sale process. His level of experience with the lenders approving the short sale, to the selection of buyers, and down to the showing was done is the most efficient and streamline process ... FLAWLESS.
More importantly,Hank Bailey is one of the most courteous and professional folks I have had the pleasure to work with. During every step of the process, Hank has demonstrated his commitment to protecting my interests and reaching my goal. I feel fortunate that I had the opportunity to work with Hank and I am truly grateful for his help!

Mr. Bailey was an advocate and friend to the highest degree during my short sale process. It was obvious that he exerted great effort to help me get the most timely deal from a legitimate buyer. He was always specific in detailing the steps of the process and what information was needed from me. He mediated all communications to me whether from the seller or short sale attorneys, often clarifying language that was difficult to wade through. Whenever various hurdles presented themselves, at no time did Mr. Bailey fail to have a relentlessly positive and firm attitude that the short sale would get done. Even though a short sale can be an intimidating process, with Mr. Bailey's guidance we were able to accomplish a successful short sale.

Hank is the kind of Real Estate Professional everyone hopes to have working for them when buying a home. He provided me with every available listing that met my personal and financial needs. Once we found the home I wanted, he worked in my favor through the negotiation process making sure I was satisfied that I had received a fair deal. As a consumer who knows very little about the lending process, I had a lot of questions. Hank made sure I understood everything, every step of the way. It was very reassuring to know he was staying on top of things to make sure we had a smooth and stress free closing.

Hank has been a real "trooper". We bought and sold our current home with Hank. Long story short, he stuck by us and did anything and everything possible to help us sell our house. Highly informed and if answer unknown, he researched and found answers in a VERY short amount of time. Our best interest ALWAYS came first. Thank you Hank!

If you are looking for a realtor, you will not be able to find a better candidate. If you are looking for a short sale realtor experience is KEY. Hank is amazing. Many people claim to be knowledgeable in short sales. I am not sure anyone could understand this process better than Hank. My wife and I recently had to go through the painful decision to short sale. We did not know even how to start the process. I sent Hank an email, and his response time was amazing. His communication is unparallelled. He walked us through the process and knew every aspect. We even had two offers the next day after listing. We were under contract in the FIRST WEEK! Now, understand that the process does take some time, but the banks are off your back for the process. This is where Hank is KEY. He knows how to keep the buyers hanging on while the banks work through all of the legal mumbo jumbo. The one thing I know for sure is that without Hank we would not have been able to have the short sale and walk away from a huge mistake.

Hank Bailey is truly awesome. He has provided exceptional service through every step of the journey in finding us the home of our dreams. We were not traditional buyers in that we had very specific requirements that were difficult to find. He worked tirelessly to locate options and opportunities to show us and as soon as our dream home hit the market he recognized it and had us see it that day. Hank guided us through a complicated foreclosure purchase and went above and beyond our highest expectations. Every question or issue that arose, Hank worked hard to find an answer or solution, I do not believe there is a better negotiator or more dedicated, knowledgeable, and responsive real estate agent than Hank Bailey.

Hank has been such a great pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable, personable, and also a great communicator. I've never had to prompt him for information - he always keeps me in the loop on what feedback he's hearing and what the market is doing. And his advice when I've received offers has been very clear, helping me to understand the negotiation process.
user2403696
Hank is extremely attentive and communicates on a regular basis. He listed our home and once we were under contract, he made sure we never lost momentum. I would recommend Hank to any of my friends, and have done so, without any hesitation!

Hank Bailey is one of the best realtors I have ever worked with as an Asset Manager. His expertise, diligence, and persistence to find solutions to get offers on our properties have made it a truly fantastic experience to work with Hank. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a highly skilled realtor.

Prior to finding Hank, I was truly considering a strategic default. With an out of state work transfer, I was feeling hopeless that there was any way to gracefully extract myself from my house. Hank however, teaming with the ASAP program, helped me every step of the way, finding buyers (multiples after our first buyer got cold feet), negotiating contracts, working with the lenders, and getting us closed in the smoothest closing I've ever experienced. He's a true professional who put the needs of my family first and kept me buoyant by cheering me on every step of the way from start to successful close. I'm not sure how you truly show appreciation to a man who kept you out of foreclosure.

Hank listens intently to his clients and delivers based on their needs. Going "above and beyond" is second nature to Hank. Attention to detail and putting his client first are what matter to him. We couldn't have been happier with how things went; from the purchase agreement to the closing table, Mr. Bailey was there for us every step of the way. I HIGHLY recommend him to all!

We continue to thank and recommend Hank Bailey as THE AGENT to use both on the home selling/buying sides as well as buying/selling land. In the past 12 months Hank has helped us complete 3 major life transactions as our real estate agent. He is the only one we will use and highly recommend. He has completed the sale of our rental home, our residence, and the sale of our land and has once again EXCEEDED our expectations. As always, his goal is to look out for our interests and protect them every step of the way and he has excelled for us in these areas. His knowledge, immediate response, and negotiation skills are always top notch. Working with Hank takes the stress off of us, and we can trust that he is working for us and giving us his very best! And with Hank--you truly are getting the best experience, and the best outcome. We love recommending him to anyone who is in the market to buy or sell.

I am so thankful we found Hank! He was by far, the kindest and most communicative agent we interviewed. Hank listed our property in Hamilton Mill. Hank found some great comps and listed our house in the mid 300k's. Our house is not a short sale or foreclosure. Other agents we interviewed low balled the list price just to make a quick sale/commission and told us our desired list price was too high. Yet, Hank fought for us and the list price we desired! We received an offer very quickly at a price most other agents would consider top dollar $330K range. The problem was the buyer wanted us out in just 2 weeks which for our family was not doable. So, we turned down the offer. Then a neighbor decided to dump the price of their house by $20K which plummeted the value of everyone else's house around us including ours. The end result, we had to take our house off the market this week. We were averaging 2 showings per day for 2 months. Hank was busy! Hank provided feedback for every single listing, communicated housing market trends in the area weekly, and worked diligently to sell our beautiful home. The best thing about Hank is he is honest. He knows real estate and will always give honest feedback. He will not just tell you what you want to hear to appease you. He was not in it to make a quick buck, but to build a great reputation and he has with us! When we decide to re-list, Hank will be the agent we will use. He definitely has earned it! Thank you Hank for everything!

Mr. Bailey listed & sold my home in 4months. He is very knowledgeable, organized & on top of the entire process. He made sure I understood everything that was happening with weekly updates & educated me on the process. Choosing Mr. Bailey for my selling agent was the best decision & I would use him
user8663954
Hank was wonderful to work with! He was easy to talk to and went above and beyond to help us sell our home. Hank is extremely professional and experienced. He listened to our questions and concerns and worked to meet our needs. Being accessible and providing feedback after house showings was a must for us and he fulfilled these needs perfectly. I highly recommend Hank Bailey for the buying or selling of any property.
