Dan Vollmer, REMAX 1st Olympic

My wife and I were first time home buyers. We needed A LOT of patient advice. Dan Vollmer surpassed our expectations and found just the right home for us. He came highly recommended by a close friend and did not disappoint. If you're looking for for an honest, down-to-earth, professional, and humble agent who will look out for your best interests, Dan is an excellent choice!

Since we were not familiar with selling a house, Dan walked us through each step. He explained everything. Always accessible. Sold the house quickly.

He handled the sale of my house. I found him through Angie's List and he was a great find.

I had scheduled a meeting with Dan Vollmer to see our home and talk about price.  That day, he didn't show up or call me to say he would not be able to make it.  I was kept waiting until I called him and he said he forgot about it.  He said he wrote it down on one calendar and not another.  It's frustrating because you have worked hard to get the house ready by cleaning from top to bottom and staging it to look nice then the realtor does not show up.

When he did show up to talk about price, he gave us a really low price and said it might not sell in this area for a year or so.  We had only lived in the area about 1 year and didn't know what to expect.  When I looked at other homes online, our family home did not look in the price range he was suggesting. Plus we had about 1 acre lot to go with the house. 

I had asked Dan to come over and take pictures on a sunny day as we felt the pictures for the internet would look much nicer if it was a bright sunny day.  He came over on a cloudy day to take the pictures.  

Thankfully, my family told us to raise the price of the house to what would be reasonable (we were planning to split the proceeds between 3 siblings).  AND it sold within 2 months after placing it on the market.  Dan seemed like he was shocked that it sold so quickly.

Now, 4 months later he is contacting me about follow up on repairs regarding the house we closed on 4 months ago!   He spoke to my brother-in-law to negotiate repairs that need to be done on the house that was not done correctly the first time.  He was at the house and let the contractor in to do the repairs, but never followed up to be sure they were done correctly.  These repairs could have cost $3,000 and he wanted them split between the 3 siblings. So each of us would pay $1,000.   He never called me about this, emailed me or anything.  Now that the repairs are complete, at a cheaper price, he contacts me to pay up on my share of the bill.  

All along I felt like he was not working with us and explaining things as we went through this process.  A professional office we were working with at the time also commented to me on his lack of participation (except on closing day when he was there to get paid). 

This is just my 2 cents but, I would not recommend Dan Vollmer as a realtor if I had to this all over again.  You need someone who will be on your side and work with you through the entire process -- not just the day of closing.

We're still in the process but overall he has been excellent and I have even referred him to a friend who's selling her home. Very professional, friendly, honest, and punctual. He had done everything he promised to do and is very update. HIghly recommend him!

I would recommend Dan Vollmer to anyone that is looking for a home or thinking of selling their home.

Dan was very thorough in his search for our new home and never lost patience with us.  When we looked at one house and were ready to close on it, he suggest a test on the ground and found it was not clear of all possible problem elements.  We were able to cancel the purchase and we got a complete refund.  Dan is very thorough in real estate.

He worked with us for a couple of years trying to get us a place before we moved up.  He used to check back with us when we were still down in Charlotte.  He used to keep was posted with what was available.  When this house came through, he worked very well with it and we bought it at a good price.
