Avenue Realty

I can’t recommend Forrest highly enough! From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make my home buying experience smooth, stress-free, and actually enjoyable. He was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and patient, always taking the time to explain things thoroughly and make sure I felt confident at every step. What really stood out was how much Forrest genuinely cares. Whether it was answering every silly question I had, negotiating tirelessly on my behalf, or just checking in to see how I was doing, he always made me feel like a top priority. He handled every challenge with professionalism and a calm, can-do attitude that made all the difference. If you’re in the market to buy or sell, Forrest is definitely your guy.

Thank you to our realtor Sarah Hall. Sarah made our purchase seamless as we are out of state buyers. She helped us navigate the process from start to finish. She always found ways to work out showing when we could be in town and gave us the name of a great contractor. Big thank you to Sarah.

Excellent service, people, and attitude! I'm so happy we listed our property with Avenue Realty.

My husband and I had a blast at the Avenue Realty Client Appreciation Party. The food was delicious and everyone was very nice and personable! Our real estate agents Russell and Katherine are just all-around good peeps and I am looking forward to our next property adventure with them in the not-too-distant future. Great evening and thanks again.

Kristi Smith is the best Realtor I have ever worked with! Her attention to detail is on point, and she does everything needed in a timely and professional manner. I would highly recommend her for your real estate needs! 5 star agent!

Worked with Kristi Smith on the purchase of an investment property and was well served by her responsiveness and knowledge of the area! Great agent to work with!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Ashley Sherrill on our New Construction purchase. Despite it being a lengthy process and many obstacles on the way, she always had our best interest at heart and often went to bat for us with the builder! I never had to wonder what was going on, my calls and emails were answered immediately, and if she didn't have an answer right then, she made sure to follow up with me as soon as she did. She is an example of what a realtor should be and we'd recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property! Ashley, thank you for our dreams of homeownership come true!

I had the true pleasure of working with Ashley Sherrill on the purchase of my home in Pensacola. She helped me navigate through the whole process. Ashley was always kind and courteous and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Thank you for all your help, Ashley.

Ashley Sherill was amazing. She was very prompt when setting up viewings. She answered every question we had and helped make us feel comfortable with our decision. We will continue to refer her to our friends and family and use her in the future.

Kristi Smith is a very solid Realtor. Very knowledgeable and works well with investors.

Kristi Smith is the best real estate agent I've ever had the pleasure of working with. She was extremely accommodating to our needs and patient while providing us with information and recommendations that ultimately ended up saving us a bunch of money. I highly recommend working with Kristi Smith if you have the chance!

As a first-time home buyer, Ashley Sherill helped the process go smoothly. She answered questions and provided great information on what to expect.

Our broker Ashley Sherrill was so helpful in finding the perfect home in the perfect neighborhood. We had been looking all over the Pensacola area and she was very familiar with the different neighborhoods. My wife and really enjoyed working with Ashley and highly recommend her services.

Hands down Kristi Smith is the best Realtor in the area. She helped me find the house I recently purchased. She was beyond helpful with the entire process of finding the home that was best for me. I highly recommend her!

A great experience working with Ashley Sherrill! She worked diligently and efficiently throughout the transaction from start to finish. I look forward to working with her again in the future and will continue to send people to her!

My realtor Ashley Sherrill made the first-time-home buying process great! She answered all questions in an understandable manner and helped me throughout the whole process. When it came to purchasing the selected home she quickly got everything in order and closed the deal, even in this competitive market! Whether or not I was her only client I have no idea, but it felt like I was! 10/10 Realty, I have every intention of working with her and Avenue Realty in the future.

Evangelos Varonos thank you so much for your professionalism and attention to detail. We were impressed with your knowledge and your responsiveness was incredible. You and Avenue Realty bent over backward for us!

We've had the pleasure of working with Kristi Smith looking for a small fixer-upper for my son. Kristi is awesome to work with, is spot-on with properties that might interest me, and is highly responsive to my concerns. She definitely knows the Pensacola area. We're looking forward to finding the right home and am very comfortable closing it with Kristi.

Kristi Smith was our Realtor and truly made it the best experience compared to past realtors we had! She listens to everything you tell her when it comes to all of your likes/dislikes and what you are truly looking for. There was at least one time I thought I was ready to put an offer in, knowing it was not the home we were in love with, but trying because I was afraid we wouldn't find anything else due to the market at that time. That is when Kristi pulled me aside and said to me, "You are not in love! You know how you go out on dates and know almost immediately whether it's love or not, is this love?!" No, it absolutely wasn't, and if she hadn't reminded me of what I wanted, I may have (tried) to pull the trigger. She helped us buy our dream home and property and was there every step of the way, truly couldn't say better things about her and her talents!

Kristi was amazing. Managed to find properties to view and arrange showings despite my insane work schedule. Worked tirelessly, (her, not me), I was exhausted) A++!

Kristi Smith is a super agent! She listens and then works diligently to find just the right property! She was there to help every step of the way.

Shelby and Kacee are top-notch! Not only are they fun and very personable, but they also know their stuff! They were both so helpful in the selling of my house and I couldn't have done it without them!

Meghan Triolo has helped my husband and I not only sell two houses but purchase two as well. She was extremely thorough and transparent during the whole process. She intelligently and quickly answered every question that we had. She will be the only realtor we will use in the future.

Made things simple buying and selling my home.

Kristi Smith is very professional. Knew when to make a comment and knew when to listen. As good as it gets. Really enjoyed working with her. She made it really easy. Even came by with a bottle of wine after the close.

Shelby Patrick is a phenom! She is not only on top of every aspect of sale and purchase but she is a kind soul who obviously finds joy in making one of the largest financial transactions of your life, smooth and exciting. She sold my first home in a week (before the purchase boom), and my second home in mere hours (on Thanksgiving day), and stuck it out with us on our seemingly forever search for our final (hopefully) forever home. She acts with integrity, tact, and professionalism while ensuring she is always taking care of your needs like family. She's exceptionally intuitive, taking what I wanted and what my husband wanted and making them align to ensure it's both of our dreams. I refer all of my friends, family, and even strangers (lol! For real) to her. Thank you, Shelby! If this area changes and we leave this home, we hope the universe will see it for you to still be in the area to help us! Two thumbs up for Avenue Realty and Shelby!

From our first contact with Jill Teston to closing her involvement and service were superior. Jill was always available and very responsive. Considering we were 1300 miles away, she turned a possibly difficult process into a seamless one. Her follow-up and after-sale assistance have made the settling process much easier. Avenue Realty and Jill will be highly recommended by us as we have family and friends who may require real estate and housing needs in this area. Thank you.

Shelby Patrick and Kacee Bidnick were absolutely fantastic to work with when selling my house recently. I highly recommend them and I would definitely use them again.

This was our first home purchase and We had the pleasure of working with Shelby Patrick and Kacee Bidnick. They made the whole process seamless and easy, almost too easy! The amount of effort and time they put into walking us through the process was unbelievable. They spent so much time walking us through the big picture. From there on out, they were always available to provide us with the information that we needed (or didn't need, but needed for the sake of our sanity), every decision that we made, small or big, mattered to them. Not only did we feel like we had all the information we needed to make those decisions, but we also felt like we were in good hands. Especially because, as a first-time buyer, We didn't know all of the questions we should be asking (or do's and don'ts, for example) and they would proactively provide this information, which made us feel like we were walking through this process with eyes wide open. And on a related note, as a first-time home buyer, we weren't sure what to expect, what's good/bad, etc., and they were always so candid and provided their own perspective of different aspects of each home that they thought would be relevant to our decision making based on what they had learned about us. We truly appreciated their input and relied on it heavily. This is an invaluable quality to have as a service provider and not everyone has it. As you can see, based on the above, Shelby Patrick and Kacee Bidnick went above and beyond (as I'm positive they do with all of their clients) and truly made us feel like we had a confidant/partner throughout the whole process. We couldn't recommend them enough!

Tyler Cashin is an awesome agent to work with. His diligence and dedication to our needs as buyers were outstanding. His professionalism and commitment to customer service are why we've chosen him to represent us in selling our previous home. We will be recommending him to anyone with real estate needs in the future.

The Gillis Group was fantastic. I was informed every step of the way what was going on. My property was sold quickly.

We bought a new home in March of 2023. We worked with Kristina Lewis and let me just say, it was a phenomenal experience. The first day we looked at houses, she showed us our dream home. Took about 30 days from the visit to close. 10/10 would recommend Kristina and this team!

Stephanie was awesome. She did a lot of follow-up on houses that we had questions about. This was going to be our retirement home so we were very specific on what we wanted and Stephanie delivered it.

Marisa has done a fabulous job keeping us posted on properties in our area. She has been quick about updating and sending contracts to us. She's been very professional in dealing with other agents on our behalf.

It was a pleasure working with Ashley Sherrill Everything was perfect. Thanks!

We love Avenue Realty, our experience has been nothing but positive. I am not the easiest customer to deal with, but Marisa Dawson has been exceptional in helping me navigate through the multiple listings for land that are available. I am trying to find something to build on, but the pit falls are many. Marisa has been our champion as we move through this confusing process. If you are looking for land or a home, I would recommend Avenue Realty specifically Marisa Dawson.

John and the crew made our dreams possible! Not one property, but two! We moved from CA to FL and couldn't be happier! Have already recommended Avenue Realty to my friends who may be moving this way too.

We had an excellent experience with our real estate agent, Ashley Sherrill. She has helped us through many transactions, professional, sweet, kind, and understanding.

I was looking to buy a house and I had no idea where to start or what the process was until I got in contact with Ashley Sherrill, she made it so easy, she was always there answering my questions, helping me with everything step by step until I closed on my house, the experience was amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone wanna have a smooth experience.

Hey! Wanted to brag on Ashley Sherrill Wilson just a little bit. She helped me sell my condo. She gave me advice on the good and the bad. I had no clue what it would sell for with the market all over the place and completely insane. I was stressed and very unsure. Although, I decided to sell the condo on my own, for various financial reasons. She was extremely professional about the entire situation and understandable. And for that, she forever has my business.

Ashley is a fantastic realtor! She is knowledgeable, attentive, and great to work with!

Ashley Sherrill worked very diligently on the challenging sale of my yard. She got a good price and did all it took to make a good sale. Thank you, Ashley.

I have nothing but sublime things to say about this company, John Kempf, to be more specific. He is the greatest realtor a person could ever have! He is so knowledgeable not only about the housing market but in home building itself. If he doesn't think a home is up to par, he will let you know. He is honest through the entire process because he wants his clients to be nothing but happy and comfortable. He made buying our home so easy. We live in Oklahoma so my nerves were growing exponentially but John took care of us as if we were his family. He doesn't just sell a house. It's a home, a lifestyle. If you are looking for a realtor to exceed all expectations of anything you have ever experienced buying a home. Then I'd say you most certainly need to call our favorite barefoot Realtor John Kempf!

John was helpful and knowledgeable every step of the way. He put in so much time and effort to get our home sold as if it were his own. He is such a great agent to work with and will recommend him to all friends and family!

Ashley Sherrill is so cool calm and informative. I was in the market for knowledge when buying a home and she didn't pressure me at all but was full of helpful knowledge. She didn't make me feel dumb in any way. I know that when I'm ready Ashley will be the person I want to buy a home from.

Stephanie Flounlacker was wonderful in helping sell and buy a home. She was there with us every step of the way, answering all our many questions and taking care of our needs. To say she is amazing would be an understatement!

Paul Flounlacker is an up-and-coming Realtor with the ability to go far. He listens to your needs and then responds quickly and appropriately. He goes a step beyond for his clients and was very helpful to me with my recent sale and buying. His potential far exceeds his accomplishments to date. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family for their real estate needs.

I worked with the team of Stephanie and Paul Flounlacker. Due to my husband passing suddenly within weeks of putting money down on a new home and putting our current home on the market, the entire experience was quite the emotional rollercoaster. They allowed me to take some time and then let me set the pace for what I could handle and when. Selling a home is never a pleasant experience but thankfully this team hung in there until my home was sold and I'm now living in my forever home. Thank you, Stephanie and Paul.

The professionals at Avenue Realty are the best! I worked with Elaine Hayward, and she is outstanding. Elaine went way above and beyond to help me find my dream home. I cannot say enough good things about Elaine Hayward and Avenue Realty, I highly recommend them!

Kristi Smith was my realtor for my purchase in Pensacola. She went above and beyond our expectations! I would highly recommend her!
