What can I say about The Cook Team?...
This team was exceptional! They helped us through every step. Answered any questions we had. Very personable! We were having a rough time going through losing our father and selling our childhood home. But these two have sympathetic souls. I would highly recommend The Cook Team!

Mr. Cook has been showing us houses for several months. Most were about 90% there but not the one. We just about gave up when Todd gave us a call and said "I found your house!" And yes he did. It was perfect for us. Then came the hard part, selling our existing home. Todd gave us excellent advise on preparing our old home for sale. Several showings right away and Todd was able to sell our home in a timely manner. He never missed our calls and was always keeping us up to date on the process. I would highly recommend Todd for your home selling and or buying needs.

Jennifer is great. She stuck by our side for 2 years through the ups and downs. We finally found a house and she was just as excited as we were.
Her and Todd are out to help their clients to ensure everything is the right fit, it's an all around great experience. Thank you!

Todd, Justin and the whole team at NextHome were amazing. Through the whole process from selling our existing home to closing on our new home they were efficient and flexible. With the ever changing market, they adapted to our needs and never said "no we can't do that" I appreciate their adaptability! Like the title says..."real estate professionals" they are just that.

We worked with Todd to buy and sell a home. I did not know him or anyone else who had worked with him previously, so I was nervous. We were buying and selling a home and I wanted someone who cared and would work hard for us. We met Todd at an open house he was having for one of his properties. He was willing to spend time with us and answer all of our questions about buying and selling a home without knowing if we would ever bring him our business. Todd is very quick to respond to questions and concerns and went out of his way to make this process seamless. He did a great job pricing our existing home for the market. I will work with Todd again and highly recommend him to others!

Justin did such a great job! He’s professional, on time and knows what he’s doing. I refer him to everyone I know! I can’t say enough about him. I was looking for an agent, stumbled across his name, called and he answered professionally. I told him what I was looking for and right away I received emails of houses in my price range. Whenever I wanted to see a house, he set it up as soon as he could and showed me. I found the one I loved, he sold mine and I’m now into my dream home!

Justin is very professional, efficient, and transparent throughout the whole buying and selling process. He really knows how to read the market and know how to time not only location and price, but meet the needs of both parties as well. I’ve been considering buying a house again, and Justin is ready and willing to show houses around my crazy work schedule- with as little as a few hours after a requested showing. 10/10 would recommend him for both buyers and sellers.

Justin is the best! First time meeting him was at scooters rather then a house! So he could get to know me and ask what I wanted in my house! All the houses he showed me were spot on! Unfortunately with the crazy market it was tough but we found one! And he made it happen! He guided us through every step! Make a situation that stresses people out super easy and stress free! I knew my family was in good hands! I have already referred him to friends when they start looking! If I could rate more then 5 stars I soooooo would! Because he’s just that flipping amazing!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Justin on our latest transaction. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity, and work ethic was very much appreciated throughout the entire process. Working together to buy and sell 2 different homes was certainly intense, but Justin was supremely detail oriented, honest, great communication throughout and has a knack for matching the buyers and sellers….Thanks Justin, highly recommend!

The Cook Team was chosen after coming highly recommended from friends of the family as well as from a relative. They communicated every step of the process and were able to answer any questions I may have had along the journey. My journey was a little different since it was part of an estate but they handled it without even flinching. I would definitely choose to use their services again.

I was new to the area and had a very specific price range. Justin worked tirelessly to show me several houses until we found the perfect one for my family in the perfect area. I would highly recommend Justin Williams and will use him again if I ever need to move again!

My wife and I had worked with Justin to find our first home. We were very happy with how helpful he was in that process, that we went back to Justin years later to sell our home. Justin sold our house within a day and made the process very simple. Thank you so much Justin!

The Cook team must have showed us 20-30 homes over a 6 month period. Most of them were very close but not just there. When they found us our current home, they contacted us right away and we were able to purchase the home that day. The Cook team listened to our needs and wants and found us our dream home. Thanks again to the Cook team. I would highly recommend them for your purchasing and selling needs.

Abby did an outstanding job getting me into my new house. She always sent me new listings that would be of interest to me as soon as they became available. She was always willing to show me any house I wanted to see and was easy to work with on scheduling. She was very honest of what she thought of the homes we saw, and helped me with making the right decisions. She was very open and honest through the entire home purchase process. She worked great with the selling agent through some difficult situations to make everything for me as seamless as possible. Abby was great and I highly recommend her!!

The Cook Team spent many months helping us fine the home of our dreams. We had a very specific list of what we wanted and Todd found everything on that list. They simply cared about our needs and took the time to help us. After finding our new home they helped us with everything we needed to get our house ready and put on the market. With the great signage, marketing, suggestions on price we sold our house quickly. The time they spent was above and beyond. Thank you!!

Just had become really great and knowledgeable at what he does. He really wants to listen and understand what a buyer wants in their new home. He has taken us to look at a few houses and is very patient and quick to setting up a time to see it. He has never been pushing which is hard to find in a realtor. He takes every showing opportunity to make himself better at what he does.
Justin has helped my mother in law sell her house and was so helpful at what she needed to make for home improvements and offered to put more time into it in order to sell it.
He really does care about his clients and anyone interested in buying or selling a house. He puts in time and hard work and wants to be the best he can for whoever his clients are.
Justin is very honest and reliable and if you want a realtor that really cares, he’s your guy.

This is the second time I’ve used Jennifer and Todd as my realtors. I had such a great experience with them the first time that they were my first and only call this time. They are very responsive and answer all questions and concerns knowledgeably and honestly. They go above and beyond for their clients and even provided me with a document to more easily file a property tax exemption for my mother. They are always professional and also very kind. I highly recommend them!

I had the pleasure of working with Justin during our home-buying process. In the wild market of 2021, Justin helped us secure the very first house we made an offer on. Communication was timely, all of our first-time buyer questions were answered compellingly, and our experience overall was top-notch. We love our new home, and would definitely work with Justin again

The Cook team was amazing on keeping us informed and giving us options! They listened to everything we were either looking for or needing and tried their best/hardest to find a home that would fit our needs and we would fall in love with all in one! I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home! If we’re ever in need again, I would never go to anyone else! They helped us find our home and we will forever be grateful for their help in making this process the easiest it could have possibly been!
