Tim Garrett did a fantastic job helping us sell a house we owned - with his assistance and advice, it sold for more money than we expected. We could not be happier and we recommend him to anyone with property to sell
Ronald and Maxine Hollingshead

Tim is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He was quick to respond to any questions we had. I appreciate that he is a Christian man and that shows in his interactions with others. I have relatives that have also used Tim to purchase their homes. I recommend that others contact Tim when wanting to purchase or sell a home.

There is no end to the praise that we can give Tim Garrett. He is the first realtor we have ever totally trusted, even though we live 450 miles away from the property he sold for us.

In fact, we were never in the house with him at the same time. Yet, he still did a perfect job and knew exactly what needed to happen - who to call to make it happen.

He was a partner who identified every step for us, anticipated what we could not, and saw it through to completion. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Tim Garrett. What a rock star!

Tim has an extensive and useful knowledge of Lubbock and can leverage that into finding a great house for you. He showed me a neighborhood I never thought about, but based on the criteria I told him I was looking for it was perfect for my needs. Even though I was prepared to pay the asking price, he put together a spreadsheet and convinced me that it was slightly overpriced. I trusted his judgement and I got my dream house for $10k less than asking. He is very easy to work with and responds to questions immediately. I definitely recommend using Tim for your real estate transactions. This was my seventh home purchase and Tim was the best realtor of the seven.

I recently purchased a moderately priced new home with Tim's assistance and guidance.

I acknowledge that the purchase of the moderately priced home would not be his biggest payday by far. However, I feel certain that I received the same attention, diligence, and service as those clients purchasing much more expensive homes.

As a retired teacher, I can recognize the qualities of a teacher. Tim possesses and exhibits these qualities throughout the entire process.

Tim was so personable and was available at the drop of a dime if we had any questions or concerns. He made our first home buying experience so smooth and easy, we could not recommend Tim and his team enough!!

I have NOTHING but great things to say about Tim!! He was attentive, listened to all my concerns, communicated in such a nice way that allowed my anxiety to stay at ease, and really made me feel at home while finding our home!! Whether we are selling, buying, or just have questions about anything to do with either he is your guy!!!

We sold our house in Lubbock recently and Tim was there to help. We were stuck in a hard situation and at no time was his effort lackluster, he was always trying new ways of getting more attention for our property until it finally sold. Tim has a lot of experience and was a pleasure to work with. I would advise anyone looking to sell there home to give Tim a call.

We can’t say enough good things about Tim Garrett. Our sale was not your ordinary sale. We had inherited the house in Texas and we live in California. Tim helped with getting the deed out of probate. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, responsive and friendly. Plus Tim is just an all around good guy. Thank you for all you did for us.

We got connected to Tim via Dave Ramsey's endorsed local provider program. From our initial consultation to closing, Tim made us feel like we were his top priority as we worked on purchasing our first home.

Realtor Tim Garrett explained every detail of selling my house along the way. Emails and texts were promptly answered. He got me a great price by making recommendations on repair and cosmetic issues that helped sell the property within one day of listing it. Tim oversaw the repairs after I left town and knows a whole network of professionals from painters to house cleaners that he called in to help me during a hectic time.

Tim found us a great house in a great neighbor hood and did a wounderful job of handling all of the paperwork for the sale.

Tim then handled the sale of our old house. Tim told us what parts of the house needed to be cleaned up and how to present the house. Tim put the house on the market and a buyer contacted him within 3-days and the house was sold in 7-days with Tim taking the paperwork for the old house.

I listed our ranch with Tim Garrett and Judy Sanders in September and had it in contract and closed by December.

I would highly recommend NextHome for any property as I have used them for personal, commercial and now farm and ranch.

--Thank You NextHome--

We met Tim at an estate property he was selling. The house didn't quite meet our needs, but we were so impressed with Tim that we contacted him when we a serious search for a new home several months later.

Tim took all aspects of our search seriously; price, location, floor plan, size and taste. He showed us several properties, all of which were contenders. With his help, found our new home very quickly.

Tim made many positive recommendations that we had not considered. He pays attention to and is knowledgeable concerning structural and current electronic/technical ("smart house") details, and honestly pointed out pros and cons of each property we looked at.

We were impressed with Tim's pleasant personality, overall knowledge, expertise, honesty and patience. It was a great pleasure to work with him. The process could not have gone more smoothly, and we would recommend Tim for any real estate purchase.

Tim did an excellent job representing us on our real estate purchase. His knowledge and expertise of the Lubbock market was extremely helpful during the buying process. We would not have been able to do this without Tim!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tim at Next Home when buying our first home. In short, he's a phenomenal realtor. His knowledge about real estate, home inspections, and financial planning is outstanding, and he guided us through the home buying process with wisdom and great people skills. More than that, he took the time to take us to dinner and chat with us about life and goals. He's a man with integrity and is worth every penny of his commission.

Tim and NextHome worked professionally and efficiently to help us get our home ready to go on the market. He continued to help us navigate the sales process and guide us through each step. He offered insightful suggestions to make the sale most beneficial to us.

Tim checked in on us during the transaction and was respectful of our time, and was not intrusive.

NextHome and Tim made selling our house, one less worry during our transition to a new home.

Absolutely the best experience from beginning to end! Tim and his team helped make the selling process so incredibly easy! We truly appreciate all their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone with real estate needs.

Tim's professionalism, knowledge, skill, and experience in the real estate market made my Lubbock home purchase easy and worry free. After sitting down with me to identify what I was looking for in a home and neighborhood, Tim worked with me to quickly narrow down and identify the right home for me. Then, he walked me through the home buying process and kept me aware of every step along the way. I have no reservation in recommending Tim to family, and friends to help them with their real estate needs.

Tim was our realtor as we searched for our new home and he is simply outstanding. As someone who has been in commercial real estate for over 30 years I am qualified to call Tim an Expert in his field. He covers all the bases; from extensive market knowledge, to working hard to understand our need's, being super responsive, and knowing the contractual process inside and out. What I particularly appreciated was that every single house that we viewed (and there were lots) Tim pointed out several positives and negatives that I would have thought of or caught. On top of that he is a great guy to work with. You will be so glad you chose Tim to guide you through the process.

What a NICE man! My husband and I were so fortunate to have Tim as our realtor. He has a stellar reputation and is highly respected within the real estate community. He always made us feel like we were his top priority and he only wanted the best for us. If Tim is your realtor, you will be lucky because your house hunting experience will be very smooth! His wife is also wonderful!

I have appreciated him so much- thanks for getting us into our dream home, Tim!

Tim kept the whole buying and selling process on track.

Thanks Tim for going more than the extra mile.

I do recommend Tim.

We closed on our new home just a few days ago. Tim Garrett has been our agent from the beginning. The home buying journey took some time, mostly due to COVID-19, but Tim remained diligent in support of us finding just the right home at the right price. Tim provided qualified answers to all our many questions and offered guidance when needed. We were very pleased with the home buying experience. In addition to his desire to help us get into our new home, he went the "extra mile" when a moving company accidentally packed and shipped a basketball goal that was supposed to remain at the house. He purchased a new basketball goal for us. I highly recommend Tim for anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Lubbock, Texas area.

Tim is the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. His expertise was essential in selling our home. He worked tirelessly down to the very last detail including the installation of new flooring, painting, house/backyard improvements,and even the storage of our furniture and miscellaneous items. I've never seen a broker work so hard and diligently. He is a gifted and outstanding professional. Don't choose anyone else!

Working with Tim to find a house was a great experience. As a first time home buyer there were a lot of things that I did not understand but Tim always took the time to explain everything I needed to know. He walked us through the very complicated process and kept everything running smoothly. He listened to what we wanted and helped us to quickly find a house with everything that was important to us. I feel very lucky to have had the experience of working with Tim and would recommend him to anyone.

Tim and his team helped us find out dream home in a highly competitive market! He’s great and can help you navigate these difficult market conditions.

He did a fabulous job. I am a widow and home owner. I asked an attorney friend of mine to recommend a realtor that I could completely trust to guide me through the process of selling my home. Tim was recommended and did not disappoint. I had moved out-of-state prior to putting the house on the market. Tim kept me informed, answered my questions, gave needed advise, and made the process as easy as could be hoped for. I would gladly recommend Tim Garrett to anyone needing a realtor to make a difficult process as comfortable as possible.

My husband , Lee and I highly recommend Mr.Garrett if you are ready to sell your home. He was very thorough throughout the process and willing to answer all questions. Mr.Garrett marketed our home well and it sold quickly. Thank you.

I can only speak highly of Tim Garrett and his sweet wife Janet. Tim helped me sell my house within 3 days of the published listing. He gave me pointers on how to present my property for for those viewing my my home. Tim also helped me purchase a garden home next to my 94 year old dad. He guided me through the entire process. I highly recommend Tim Garrett and the Next Home Core Realty team when looking for a home or looking to sell.

You will NOT find a better real estate agent than Tim Garrett! No one will work harder and spend more time finding exactly what you need or selling your home. He has done both for me in the last 10 years. He found the perfect home for me when my kids were going to Texas Tech, and he was always very honest about every aspect that I was looking for. And he just sold my house for me, literally, before I could turn around. He worked tirelessly and was in communication with me every day. I love this guy and you will too!!! Give him a call, you will be happy!

Tim was easy to communicate with and very knowledgeable about the listing and the process. He walked me through every step explaining it thoroughly. I felt totally confident with Tim working on my side.

Tim went above and beyond to help us get our home. We are new to Texas and I had to change jobs when I got here. This made financing very difficult. Tim went through several of his connections until we got a solution. If not for him, we could not have purchased at this time. He is very knowledgeable of the real estate business and very trustworthy and helpful. I highly recommend him.

Tim went above and beyond to help my husband and I get into our home. We had to change jobs and that made Tim's job even harder but, he pulled through and we're now enjoying our new home. I would definitely recommend him to everybody. Thanks Tim☺️

During the short visit we had with Tim Garrett a year and a half before we needed his services, left us knowing that we would definitely be using Next Home Realtors when the time came to buy our house.

We would definitely recommend Tim Garrett with Next Home Realtors for your next home buying experience.

Tim Garrett did a great job. With us moving out of town, he handled it all. He was recommended by a dear family friend (who worked in the mortgage business and with realtors). There are no regrets working with Tim.
Thank you for your hard work!

Excellent service...

Tim is top of the line! Very helpful in every step of the way. My husband and I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.

My wife and I decided to look into buying our new house, with no experience, and no idea what to expect. From the first meeting, Tim and Janet proved to be extremely knowledgeable. They made the whole process much easier and much more comfortable knowing that we had so much experience on our side. They ended up working a great deal for us to get us into a house in a great neighborhood that exceeded our expectations. Even after the sale, they are still available for any questions and to help with suggestions on marketable improvements to the house. We would highly recommend Tim and Janet and NextHome Core Realty, and we will definitely be going back to them for our Next Home!

Tim has helped us buy two homes and sell two homes over the past four years. His knowledge, experience and expertise are invaluable. His wife Janet also helped with some showings and we greatly valued her opinion, as well. We highly recommend Tim; we wouldn’t think of using anyone else.

Tim Garret did an amazing job in helping me find my new home. Mr. Garret first met with me and built a trustworthy relationship with me before diving into looking at homes. During this whole experience, I endured very little stress during a time that I had so many other stress factors going on: moving, new position and trying to sell my old home. Mr. Garret took the time to know what my vision was and due to this, I found the exact home that I envisioned. Mr. Garret’s knowledge concerning homes built in Lubbock is astounding. With Mr. Garret, you will get the background and historical information on homes in the Lubbock area. If you are new to the Lubbock, like I was, Mr. Garret will share inside information on the greatness of Lubbock; things to do, things to see, the culture, events, activities and history of the area. Mr. Garret is polite, honest, loyal, punctual, helpful and caring. I highly recommend Mr. Garret if you are looking for your next you home.

Tim was referred to us by a friend. We are from out of town and had very limited time to look at houses. We arrived in Lubbock, and Tim provided us with thorough, well-researched information concerning each property meeting our criteria. He also took the time to introduce us to many areas in Lubbock. We were looking for a specific and unique home, and Tim never made us feel pressured to settle for anything less. He went the extra mile to find us that perfect home.

Tim is the best realtor in Lubbock! He negotiated the purchase of our
home with expertise. He knows everyone you could possibly need from house inspectors to exterior maintenance crews. I can't recommend him enough!

Several years ago I first met Tim about potentially working with him. There was an immediate connection. He is a great combination of expertise and personable interaction. His knowledge of real estate proves his confidence as a professional. He has the business figured out and enthusiastically shares his 20+ years experience. The customary training I have received from Tim is extraordinary. Ask anyone in the business and you will learn the respect he possesses in the world of real estate including lenders, title company's and agent colleagues alike. He has created a warm, positive, "go-getter" environment which in turn produces a vigorous energy to build my personal real estate business successfully. He believes in me and everyone he brings on board. My decision in having Tim's leadership guide me ultimately was drawn from his steadfast CORE values of integrity and honesty. Both, agents he works with and clients he works for, will have Tim's genuine character and loyalty. He is the real deal. He understands the foundational truths of running a business that will thrive and prosper. Working alongside Tim is a privilege I hold dear.

We trust Tim to help us through the entire process and he is excellent at explaining the details. We recommend Tim all the time to our family and friends. He is the one to trust!

We did not have a clue on what we needed to do to purchase a home but Tim walked us through every step of the way. He explained everything in detail and took the time to make sure we understood. He listened to our needs and met them! We love our new home and will use Tim for our next upgrade!

One word says it all..."AWESOME!" Thank you, Tim!

We have moved several times over the years and working with Tim was the best experience we have had. I would highly recommend him for anything real estate!!

Tim sold our home in 1 day and made the whole process fun and enjoyable. There were several 'opportunities' with the buyer and their lender that came up and Tim negotiated and solved all of them in our best interest.

Tim is incredibly knowledgeable, fun, kind, capable and encouraging. He is great at what he does, and if you are around him for any amount of time it is clear he is one of the best in the business! 5-stars for sure.

Tim has been our realtor for over 20 years. He worked with us to sell our first home in 1989, which took just under 2 weeks. Our next house took only one day. Our last home took a little longer with 2 days BECAUSE THERE WAS A BIDDING WAR...We took his wise advice, did what he suggested and got the results. We have one more move in us and you'd better believe Tim Garrett is right there giving his sage and savvy advice. Tim is our one and only choice!

Tim is a hoot to work with! He made the whole selling experience fun, but was extremely professional at the same time.

We had our home for sale for almost two years. We listed with three different real estate companies which resulted in few showings and no offers! We then hired Tim Garrett to sell our home. Our house sold within four months. We had more showings in those four months than we had in the prior two years with the other real estate companies combined!! Tim spent hours patiently answering our questions and responding to frequent emails. He maintained a positive attitude which was greatly appreciated. He even handled the closing of the sale because we were out of the country. Tim Garrett is definitely a true professional and a genuinely nice guy. He is exactly the type of person that you want to sell your home. You can trust him. We did and look what happened!!!
