TESTIMONIALS

Walter's extensive experience and knowledge of the Houston housing market was critical to selling our house, which had a challenging combination of size and location within our neighborhood. Walter and his capable team conducted an extensive marketing campaign that, in our view, effectively highlighted the key selling points of our house. Given the challenge in selling our house, Walter and his team also conducted multiple open houses, one of which attracted the ultimate buyer. Throughout the entire process Walter was always available and highly attentive. We could not have asked for a better realtor!

My husband and I have known Walter for many years, and we asked him to help us sell our home in River Oaks. As part of staging the house for showings, I purchased a very large and beautiful white orchid and placed it prominently in the dining room. When all the preparations were done we sat down at the dining room table to sign the seller’s disclosures. I turned to Walter and let him know, in a friendly way, that this was a “one orchid sale”. He looked at me, clearly puzzled by what I meant. I explained that my definition of success was to have our house sold before the orchid over my shoulder needed replacement. Four weeks later, thanks to Walter, we had a successful one orchid sale without losing a single petal!

Working with Walter and his team, Gary and Brittany, was a joy! They made the homebuying and selling process much simpler than I expected. Their communication between us and the other parties was seamless and they made last minute appointments happen, every time. There was no drama, just really solid business practices every step of the way. I had a lot going on during these two transactions and Walter’s team could not have made things easier! I am forever grateful to them for their knowledge, kindness and calm demeanor in navigating buying and selling. Coincidentally, I bought and sold two homes.

Walter is the Broker who a Broker calls when some magic is required. I have been a licensed real estate broker for the better part of 42 years in Texas. The seller of the first property I acquired in 1982 as a new Texas resident was represented by Bering Realty. Like his father, Walter is a gentle giant in the business. Fast forward to 2001, I bought a property which stretched me nearly beyond my means with a new jumbo mortgage and a construction loan, while wondering how long it would take to sell the existing home. I sought Walter's magic. Surely enough he promptly found the perfect buyer and the sale was concluded in his typically smooth fashion. Most recently, Walter approached me with a buyer who was looking for a home with exactly the qualities and quirks for which our home qualified. We were able to discreetly conclude the off-market transaction within 45 days in a manner that exceeded the capabilities of which I knew Walter and his team could reach. Happy seller, happy buyer. It's really this simple. Walter has exceeded the expectations of both for years, and will continue to do so with devotion for years to come.

You want the best, of course, when selling your house. And with my experience, it was clear that when we chose Walter Bering, we then found out that we had a true professional who went the distance in all avenues. He added several additional aspects in presenting and covering my property that conveyed a better, fuller view of the home that was for sale. It is his full experience of years performing at a higher level that brings every advantage to the goal you want. Walter was always accessible and available, and was generous in making our house open. You always felt he and his assistants had your goal foremost in mind. With Walter Bering it is easy to see why he is a top producer.

It was the most professional real estate transaction we have ever had. You should be very proud of your team and yourself because it is far above the normal service provided in your industry...Very much in line with our Miami and Santa Fe experience with Sotheby's brokers. Thank you!
