Made buying my home much easier
“I had a fantastic experience with my realtor Robert "Bobby" Christiano! He was incredibly attentive and always made sure to address all my questions and concerns. His helpful guidance throughout the process made buying my home much easier than I expected. His experience and knowledge helped us to pick the correct home for our family.”

Worked around the clock
“From our first conversation to moving day, Tanya was exceptional. Not only is she professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and incredibly hand-working she is also a kind person. She worked around the clock to ensure my family found the right property for our first home purchase. She was quick to answer our questions, ease concerns, and give helpful advice. Think of the best real estate agent you know and multiply it by 10- that’s Tanya and her associate Bri! Thank you so much Tanya and Bri!”

Got the best deal for us
“Our realtor was great. He was patient, knowledgeable and very much a professional. Also, he was a very nice person. Once we found the home that we wanted he worked tirelessly to ensure he got the best deal for us. Danny from Clever was also very good at his job. He always was timely in asking how things were going in the process as well.”

Helped negotiate a favorable price
“Through Clever, my wife and I got realtor Mario Vitale and he was very helpful and met my needs and expectations. After spending several weekends with him, we found two townhomes and with his help, we negotiated a very favorable price and bought them both. Mario took care of everything and made it an easy process.”

Negotiated a good purchase price
“Ed and Larry worked with me to present an offer and negotiate a good purchase price on a nice home in Colorado. They know the area and market and their advice regarding all aspects of the deal were very helpful. They helped tie up loose ends on the home as I was still in Utah, they went above and beyond to do what it took to close the deal.”

Negotiated repairs on the home
“Clever made it easy for me to connect to professional agents whom were eager for my business. I was able to interview both of them before signing. Ultimately, the realtor I chose (Jason Northcutt) was a rock star! He managed both my buying and selling experience and made it as easy as possible and helped me get top dollar for the sale of my existing home, and negotiate repairs for the home I was buying. Anytime I asked questions, Jason was very quick to respond, whether thru text, e-mail, or phone. There's a lot that happened in our transactions, and Jason took care of most of it behind the scenes while being transparent about what was happening. In short, I would chose Jason Northcutt again for any future realty experience!”

Found a place with effective negotiation
“Found a great agent! After interviewing a few, I picked the one I clicked with the most, and she was able to help me find the perfect place for my needs, with effective negotiation. She made the process much more painless than it could have been. As a first-time home buyer, I really appreciated having an expert by my side who could answer all my questions and clearly lay out all the information I didn't even know to ask about. Plus, the Clever Cashback bonus after completing the purchase was a really nice incentive.”

Checked in to make sure things were going well
“The Clever team was very helpful throughout our home buying experience. My partner and I just bought our first home and Clever helped us match with a Buyers Agent with 30+ years of experience. The Clever team checked in with us throughout the process to make sure things were going well and was always available to answer any questions. I would recommend them!”

Cared about my goals
“From the first contact with your company I felt at ease and that you cared about what goals I was trying to achieve in my home buying process. I took your advice on interviewing a few realtors and the next day Tracy from Yancy Realtors was my agent. She was great and kept me informed every step of the way. When I needed to ask additional questions she was always easy to reach or she would get back to you as soon as she became available. She got the job done and I am now in my new location. I highly recommend Clever Real Estate company.”

AMAZING throughout the entire process
“This was our first time buying a home and we were using a VA Loan. Clever matched us with Ashley, who was AMAZING throughout the entire process. She answered probably a million questions from us, she contacted vendors for us to set up inspections & came out for the inspections to make sure I wasn’t doing it alone. She was super helpful in updating us & handling the paperwork and just being there while we navigated this process for the first time. I would highly recommend Clever & Ashley to anyone!”

Patient explanations for new buyers
“My husband and I were buying our first house and was completely new to all of it. Every person we talked to were super patient and explained every very thoroughly. Jacob helped us with our loan and explained the different steps very thoroughly. Our real estate agent Adam was super patient and explained and answered our questions. He went above and beyond to help us with everything. I would recommend it to others that are brand new to buying a house.”

I will ALWAYS use Clever
“This was the third time I've used Clever. They assign very professional agents who truly work for the client. The reduced commission fees is an outstanding feature of this company! I just closed on a house and I didn't have to pay ANY realtor commission because the realtor negotiated for the seller to pay them! My closing costs were only what are required, and the lowest I've ever paid! Katie Westhora was my realtor; a real gem! I will ALWAYS use Clever Realtor Services in the future, and I very highly recommend them.”

Took all the weight off my shoulders
“Even with the lender and seller being difficult for me, clever made everything else simple and easy for me—As far as finding a house and communicating to the seller through my realtor.

Attentive to our needs
“My realtor, Mike Quigley, made the experience a very good one. He was attentive to our needs, always responsive, very knowledgeable, and always kept us informed. It was also great to texts from Clever asking how the process was going and if we needed anything. We worked through every bump in the and ended up with the home that were searching for at a price point we are happy with, in part thanks to Mike.”

FAQs
How does Clever Cash Back™ work?
When you buy an eligible home through a Clever partner agent, you receive cash back after closing: $250 for a purchase, or $500 if you buy and sell with Clever. The payment is delivered digitally via email, typically within 30 days of closing.
To qualify, the home must be worth at least $50,000 and located in one of the 42 states that allow commission rebates. See which states allow buyer rebates.
What services do Clever buyer's agents provide?
You get the same level of service you'd expect from any buyer's agent you found on your own. Your agent will set up instant MLS alerts, schedule showings, tour homes with you, help you write and submit offers, negotiate terms, coordinate inspections and appraisals, and guide you through closing.
If you're shopping across multiple neighborhoods, Clever can match you with different agents who specialize in each area.
Can Clever help me find a mortgage lender?
Yes. Clever's Concierge Team can connect you with mortgage lenders in your area who offer loan options for different buyer situations: conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, and more. You can also explore mortgage options through Best Interest Financial, which works with a wide range of lenders to help buyers find competitive rates and loan programs tailored to their needs.

Can Clever help me sell and buy at the same time?
Yes. For local moves, Clever can recommend agents with strong track records representing both sellers and buyers. If you're relocating to a new area, Clever can match you with great agents in each market. And if you buy and sell through Clever, you qualify for the higher $500 Cash Back tier. Match with top local agents for your sale and purchase today.
Do I have to sign a contract with Clever?
No. You never sign a binding agreement with Clever. Getting matched with an agent is free, and you can request matches, interview agents, and walk away at any point with no obligation. If you decide to work with one of Clever's recommended agents, you'll sign a standard listing agreement or buyer agency agreement with that agent (not with Clever), based on the norms in your local market.
