Regarding the Purchase of a first home in Lexington Estates;

"I don't think there are words to completely express the appreciation we have for Hank, and the work he has done for us. As young first time homebuyers the process is much more than a simple real estate transaction. Several factors come into play; excitement, doubts, emotions, and never ending questions when it comes to that first big purchase.

Hank was able to explain the process of buying our first home in simple understandable terms, all while looking out for our best interest. With Hank you can tell that it's not just about selling a house, its about selling a home and making his clients truly happy with their purchase. We started our search with Hank and he found us the needle in the haystack we were looking for. He always remained positive, and kept an upbeat attitude that we would find EXACTLY what we were looking for, and we did!

From the first phone call, to the last email, Hank was quick to respond to every concern we had and made the process seamless and easy. Hank is a true professional with a work ethic unsurpassed, and most importantly he has incredible character and a positive attitude. We love our first home, and would recommend Hank to anyone looking for their dream home."

Regarding the Purchase of a home in Old Waverly, Bogart, GA

"Let me start by saying you are by far one of the best realtor's Pinal and I have worked with. This was our third home and even though it took us about 2&1/2 months from start to finish, you were there every step of the way.

I'd have to say that 3 particular words separate your work from other realtors we've worked with 1. Speed 2. Competencies 3. Results. You were always quick to get back with us. You picked up quickly on what we were looking for and were well aware of the Oconee market.

Thanks for all your hard work and follow up. Your resourcefulness in getting answers from everyone involved in the process(from my lenders to the relo folks to the home inspector, etc) helped Pinal and I feel more confident and secure about our decisions and provided more clarity to each step of the buying process. Thank you for all your contractor referrals as well!

You've lived up to your closing quotes on all emails: This day and time "Being Just Good Enough Never Is!" You were truly Great! . Thanks again for everything!"

As a first time home buyer in Athens, Hank devoted what appeared to be all of his time and energy into helping me find just the right home. Throughout my home buying process Hank made me feel as if I were his only client.

He had my best interests in mind 24/7. He went above and beyond the duties and responsibilities written in his job description.

First Time Home Purchase in Falling Shoals, Athens, GA

"As first time homebuyers we were a little uncertain of all home buying entailed. Our initial thoughts were to go it alone…’realtor-less’ as it were. However, we had noticed Hank through our web searches and were instantly drawn to his website which was informative, easy to use and personable. When we met Hank in person all thoughts of going it alone changed. He was simply wonderful. He was very professional during the entire process and was available via phone and e-mail during all hours of the day (including weekends!). Whenever we had a question Hank provided a quick and comprehensive reply. He went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. He also interacts with a great network of people who made our home buying experience pleasant and easy. More over Hank became a friend we still keep in contact with. I cannot recommend him enough."

Foreclosure Purchase in Covington, GA!

"My family and I lost our home to a fire in July of 2009. My husband and I had been searching for months for a home that we could start over in and rebuild new memories with our family. It was very discouraging and hard trying to find exactly what we knew we wanted. So many variables come into play when you have children involved in buying a new home-the location, the county in which you wish to reside in, living space, price, etc. My lender gave me the name of a real estate agent. He said give him a call and see if he can help you out. The best decision that my husband and I could have made for our family was contacting Hank Bailey. We spoke with him the week before Thanksgiving and due to his hard work and continuous support we have now found and purchased the home that will be our new beginning. He is more than an agent, he is our friend."

- Melissa and Greg Heath, Covington, GA

Jefferson, GA Foreclosure (Bank Owned) Purchase!

If you are looking for foreclosures, bank owned properties, or REOs in Jefferson, GA or anywhere in Jackson County, GA I would highly encourage you to contact Hank. He will make you feel as if you are “family” that he wants to look out for during the home buying process!"
