Testimonials

My first experience with Scott was when I chose him to list a view lot that I fell in love with and on which I had every intention of building my dream home. Scott listed it and dutifully showed it on my behalf. Scott knew how sad we were to lose this land. We just couldn't find a builder to do our build at a reasonable price. Scott- stopped marketing my lot and found me a builder. He lost the lot listing; I built the house. THEN he used his connections to get my dream home featured in a well-known magazine! When my 27-year-old son started looking for his first home, of course, we called Scott. SLC is super competitive for 1st time homeowners and our requirements must have changed 10 times. Scott hung in there with us and ultimately guided us to a beautiful little cottage home with a fenced in yard for the dog. I cannot recommend Scott enough. He is a professional with integrity. He is super knowledgeable, selfless, patient and knows exactly how to wade through stressful moments with a well-timed joke.

Rachel Dees

I realize I've given 5 stars. It wasn't by accident or due to lack of attention to detail. It was specifically due to attention to detail, which was part of the full experience we had with Scott. In working with him, we felt we had distinctly capable guidance in all areas. He was in front of any question we had, and provided straight forward, clear counsel along the way including keeping us "in the lanes" on decisions when needed. Always working as a team, he guided us to ultimately a perfect placement and we couldn't be happier. We will certainly work with him again and actually look forward to the next opportunity to do so.

Josh Dees

Scott is and was an excellent realtor (very lovely guy). We bought our first house with him, and (wow!) the process was so smooth from start to finish. It was an extremely fast process without any problem. He is a very observant person therefore, he was very easy for us to explain our requirements and he made it possible to meet each of them. He never interfered in our way of thinking or what we wanted. He always gave us his feedback whenever we asked for it and he was always quite honest with us. The process was completely transparent and he made our lives 200% easier! He never had a “NO” for us and he was always available 24/7 to clarify any questions or if any changes arose. He is an excellent human being, very respectful, professional, honest and has an excellent team! We are considering of buying a second home in another location and will definitely be hiring Scott! 100% recommended, we love him! Thank you Scott to making our dream possible in record time!

Melissa Vega

Scott took time to research the market and provide pivotal facts that helped us sell quickly and price the home appropriately. Through his resources and team, we were able to sell the home in a very short time frame AND meet all my goals we set in selling the home. He constantly kept in contact with me through the process and provides key market data in trends. This enabled us to navigate the showing process all the way to successful close.

Bradley Hunsaker

Scott is an amazing realtor. We have hired him multiple times over the years because he is extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He is attentive, responsive, & really cares about his client's needs & wants. I have recommended him to several family members and friends because I know they’ll be in good hands.

Sultana Truma

We have worked with Scott as both sellers and buyers in a variety of markets. We are constantly impressed by Scott's knowledge, energy, enthusiasm, professionalism, and responsiveness. He has the best interest of his clients in mind and we felt supported and advocated for in every single step. He goes above and beyond to ensure a seamless and thoughtful process. Real Estate is clearly not just Scott's job - it is his passion, and we love working with him.

Mary Steinmann

Scott is the ultimate professional who deeply cares about making sure you fully understand the process of buying/selling a home. We return to Scott for all of our real estate needs because he has shown time and again that he has the skills and passion to make the home buying/selling experience as comfortable and even enjoyable as possible. Thanks, Scott!

Sean Steinmann

Scott is nothing short of amazing. His commitment to a high level of service is evident from start to finish. We once again were impressed with his constant communication and commitment to go above and beyond throughout the entire transaction process. If you are looking to buy or sell a home, please give Scott a call you will be in great hands.

Karen Welch

We chose Scott to assist us in the sale of our house during the booming market of early 2022. While the market was great, the true story is that Scott was able to guide us through the market, from what to expect, pricing our house in the hot market, prepping our house to show the best that it possibly could and through multiple offers and the eventual final closing. Was a great experience and highly recommend Scott in any market (hot or cold).

Roger Sigley

Scott Robbins did an outstanding job representing us on a recent home purchase in UT. He was totally professional, extremely responsive, and very client-focused. Working with Scott is a pleasure.

John Walsh

Scott assisted in selling our home in SLC as we were relocating out of state. He went out of his way to do much more than we anticipated with minor repairs, staging, and the yard. His focus, energy, and networks resulted in us being under contract for above asking in 2 days. Thank you Scott for making this process so much easier!

Jonathon Bates

Scott is a true professional and knew everything there was to know about the area. I felt fortunate to work with him, he made the process easier and more stress-free than I imagined it could be.

Matt McKenna

Scott made the whole searching/buying experience super easy! He made time for us whenever we needed, and even checked in while on vacation! Thank you for taking great care of us, looking forward to your help with the next place! Mike & Teri, grateful new homeowners

Michael Ludwig

Scott is the ultimate professional agent who went above and beyond for us. I highly recommend him and will use him again in the future.

Laurie Carlyle

Scott was an amazing resource for my husband and me when buying our first home. He was very responsive and useful for our first home buying questions, walking us through the process and making sure we were kept up to date throughout - he made the process feel seem less. He made us feel like we were the only clients he was working with and has kept in touch since and has been a resource for us as we navigate in our new city.

Ashley Boles

Scott was an indispensable resource during our relocation to Salt Lake County from out of state. He provided us with valuable information regarding the various neighborhoods we looked at while searching for a home, was accessible whenever my wife or I needed questions answered and had our best interests in line with his during the entire home-buying process. Definitely intend to use him during our next purchase!

Brandon King

We highly recommend working with Scott. When we recently moved to the Salt Lake City area, Scott helped us get started with a thorough and informative city tour. He listened to exactly what we needed and wanted in our new home and narrowed the search. He always knew what we were looking for and what we needed to do to find and close on our perfect house. We love the house that he found for us!

Monica & Jeff Smith

We worked with Scott to sell our family home because of the strength of his sales numbers, his presentation, his ability to relate to us and sense our needs, his credentials, and because we immediately trusted him to sell the home at the best price within the shortest time. He went above and beyond his duty to us and the home sold above asking within 24 hours of listing. His knowledge of the sales area and the benefits brought to the table by working with Sotheby’s were definitely pluses for us. We would absolutely utilize Scott’s talents again and enthusiastically recommend him for all real estate transactions!

Michelle Dunbar

Our experience with Scott was wonderful. He was always willing to answer questions and support viewing. I have recommended Scott to everyone who needs a realtor.

Chris Deemer

Scott has to be the most patient person I have ever met. We moved from Texas to Utah having NO IDEA what we were getting ourselves into. The housing market went crazy and we looked at more houses than we can count before finding the right one. Scott helped us write offers, consoled us when things didn't work out, and never lost his cool. He stuck with us for 6 months and became a friend along the way. You can't find a better guy!

Shelley Cadmus

It was great to work with Scott to find our new home in Utah. He not only showed us a lot of houses that fit our needs, but also got our first and only offer approved!

Alejandro Sanchez

Scott is an incredible realtor. He is knowledgeable and communicates his expertise clearly and succinctly. Scott always seemed to have our best interest in mind and was helpful with every step of the process. We have bought and sold several homes with Scott and we will continue to use him in the future.

Ryan Spiker

Scott was very responsive and easy to work with during the entire process from showings to closing. We got the property we were looking for in the price range we wanted to stay in. I would highly recommend him as an agent.

Robert Rudzik

Scott is amazing to work with. He helped us purchase our house in UT when we first moved here over 10yrs ago as well as helping sell the property just recently when we decided to move. Scott is all class, personable, and so easy to work with. There was never any guesswork. Highly recommended.

Brandon Calloway

This is my fourth time working with Scott. He is a consummate professional. Every transaction that he has completed with me has been successful. We were able to get exactly the house we wanted in this red hot Salt Lake market. I largely credit him with making it happen.

Rebekah Myers

If you are looking for a great realtor to help you navigate the complicated process of buying a home Scott is the only choice! He was so much more than just professional and super knowledgeable about the real estate market, but he was like a good friend that just helped you through the entire process, gave amazing honest, helpful feedback and suggestions, and made the whole experience stress-free and easy. Don't buy your house without getting Scott involved! I promise it will be the best decision you make outside buying the house of your dreams!

Jed Nielsen

Our family was due to relocate to Salt Lake for my husband's work and we connected with Scott....He was great right from the start! He sent me links to info about the area, we talked for almost an hour about what my family was looking for and our situation, etc. My husband made a trip out to Utah ahead of time to look at areas and Scott dedicated half his week to showing my husband around Salt Lake area so we could narrow our search. All in all, Scott is a great guy with a genuine care for people and that is what makes him such a great realtor!

Alicia

Scott helped me relocate from out of state. I could not have had a smoother experience. He responded to every question within a few hours. He ensured my interests were primary throughout the transaction. Most importantly, he listened to what I wanted. He picked up on my style and preferences very quickly. I was delighted that every home he showed me was one that suited what I was looking for. He gave me honest feedback and always supported what I needed. On top of everything, I asked a dozen questions about experts in the area because I was new. He could pull out his phone and forward me a contact within minutes. Buyers need a realtor they know they can trust. Scott is absolutely that person!

Jenni

We feel super fortunate to have gotten a referral to Scott! Having sold our place outside of Seattle in record time, we needed to locate something we liked ASAP. Scott was super responsive, and deeply knowledgeable of the local market. Very much appreciated his approach to showing us the various parts of the city and surrounding area so we could make sure we knew the area we wanted to purchase within, then looked at a number of targeted places. His advice throughout the process and especially as we negotiated a closing was invaluable. We would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to buy/sell in the area!

Enoch

Our experience with Scott was exceptional from start to finish. We always felt like a top priority and had his full attention whether asking questions, discussing strategy, or simply checking in. Scott also impressed us with his grasp on the process as well as his ability to explain the more complicated aspects in a simple yet thorough way. We would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to buy/sell in the Salt Lake County area.

Sean

Scott is amazing! He worked with us for almost 9 months trying to find the perfect place for our first home. He is always willing to help out with anything you need throughout the entire process. I will definitely be a loyal Scottsman moving forward and have already recommended him to others looking to buy/sell!

Elise

Scott is by far the best realtor out there. I was originally working with a relative of mine and had a bit of a rough experience. As soon as I was referred to Scott everything got so much easier. This was my first home purchase and he made it a breeze. Despite looking for 6 months and during a pandemic he was persistent sending me homes and taking me to look at them. Pointing out things he saw good or bad. He has an incredible amount of knowledge and can answer any questions you can possibly come up with. When it came to closing he made it quick and easy. Gave me suggestions on what to offer and negotiated so that not only would I get the house is the crazy market but for a great price as well. I definitely will be recommending Scott to all my friends and family.

Nate

Scott came highly recommended to us by a very close friend, and we couldn't have been happier with his expertise in and guidance through the home-buying process. He listened to our desires and showed us every home we wanted to see (even the crazy homes) and those that he had picked for us. We ended up with our dream home that, although not right for everyone, is perfect for us and our style. And not only that, Scott was able to (and continues to) recommend to us trustworthy and reliable contractors, architects, handymen, structural engineers, you name it. Scott knows everything there is to know about homes in the Salt Lake area, and is well-connected and respected in the industry. His reputation, rapport with the seller's agent and negotiation skills landed us our home, which likely would not have happened otherwise given the rather difficult sellers. I would use Scott again in a heartbeat and have already recommended him to friends who have likewise had a great experience with Scott. I can't say enough about the guy. He is a fantastic real estate agent

Heather S

Scott was the best from start to finish. He listened to understand what we were looking for and guided us to a great home purchase. He went above and beyond by helping us get started as new landlords and get connected to great folks to help with some repairs and such. My husband have been involved in several recent home sales and purchases and Scott stands out as a talented professional. Highly recommend

Sam T

Being new to the Salt Lake Area we were very lucky to have Scott as our realtor. Through every step of the process, Scott made himself available to answer any questions and always kept us informed on all of the important details. We were very impressed with his high level of customer service and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Chris and Karen U.

Everyone knows a good realtor, but I'm not sure if everyone can point to specific examples where that realtor saved them time, money or unnecessary stress. Throughout this process, on multiple occasions, Scott earned his commission in very tangible ways. For example:

- Understanding that the home we ultimately purchased was underpriced, and would sell quickly. He advised us to write an offer ASAP, and to write it for more than the asking price. This seemed crazy, but after losing out on another home (by not following his advice), we listened and wrote an offer for $8k over asking. By the next morning, the home had three additional full price offers, and by being in at slightly over asking, we were able to get the home under contract and avoid a "everyone make your final and best offer" situation that could have seen the home ultimately priced $20k-$30k over what we got it for. The home easily appraised at the higher price, and his quick thinking saved us money.

Scott also has a wide network of local experts in the inspection, appraisal and contracting fields who were able to assist us in very important ways. He connected us with an inspector with specific expertise that allowed us to identify a potential DISASTER in a home we had under contract prior to the home we ultimately purchased. His connections, and understanding of potential pitfalls, allowed us to avoid a situation that would have proven to be very costly.

Lastly, I would say that the greater Salt Lake City real estate market has turned into a tricky place to find a home. Inventory is tight, a lot of the stock is aging, the number of bad remodels is astounding, and decisions have to be made quickly to avoid missing out. All of these things require you to hire someone who knows the market, understands human nature when it comes to buying/selling a home, and who has a network of experts who can help protect you.

You should be buying more than someone who pushes paper when choosing a realtor. If their clients can't point to specific ways they helped save money, or make money, find someone else. Scott is this guy

Ryan F

Scott Robbins recently helped us with the sale of our home. We had an urgent unplanned move out of state for work. Scott not only created a very professional package to sell our home but also provided much needed help on the coordination of selling a home in one state and buying a home in another state in the same week. Our home sold in less than 24 hours. His research of the market and his instincts enabled him to create a strategy that worked. His knowledge of the entire spectrum of buying and selling property helped us coordinate all of the many activities surrounding both real estate transactions and moving coordination. All things had to line up perfectly in order for this to work. There were 4 separate families impacted by all of these events. There were real estate transactions in Texas, Utah, and Florida. Scott not only represented us but served as a mentor and teacher to other realtors, lenders, and families. Scott is the consummate professional. He also exhibits genuine trust, integrity, and really cares about his customers. Scott is an asset to the industry. We recommend you seek him out and ask him to take care of you like he took care of us.
