Client Testimonials

I have had the experience of buying and selling many homes in my life. As my needs changed, I recently found the need to sell my home and purchase a new one. Having purchased the home I was in five years ago, with the help of Jeff Dickey, I knew I could trust him to sell my home and find a new one. Throughout the past several months, Jeff has been there every step of the way. He has always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. I never felt that he was just trying to sell me a house, but there to find me the right house and answer my questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking to buy or sell. Thanks again for all your hard work.

I was very grateful and thankful that I had Jeff Dickey as my Realtor when I sold my home and purchased another home. He was always so kind and quick to answer any of my questions. He was honest and easy to talk with. I am glad he was willing to help me find exactly what I needed in the perfect location.

Jeff Dickey was incredible to work with! He made selling my home easy and stress free. I will be using Jeff for any real estate needs I have in the future.

We could not have asked for a better home selling and buying experience! Jeff was the best in helping us get our house listed for sale and then helping us figure out multiple offers. And then, on the buying side when we were one of 4 offers, Jeff helped get us in the best position to get the home that we really wanted for this next season in life. It could have all been so overwhelming but we are thankful to have had Jeff with us throughout the whole process. Jeff Dickey at New Waters Realty is the real deal… call him when you are ready to buy, build or sell!

Lynn was a great help with my search for a new home. It was a long distance purchase, with a short timeline, and she showed me houses through zoom meetings.I purchased the perfect home for me with her assistance. Lynn made herself available around my schedule and time zone differences. Great real estate agent. She cares about her clients and works hard to get you in your new home.

In 2018 my daughter decided she wanted her upcoming wedding to be at The Chapel at The Waters. My wife Beverly & I had been out there a few times to visit friends but had never really taken a tour of the entire neighborhood, and since we were coming out here regularly making wedding preparations we decided to see as much as we could with each trip. We had lived in the same home in Montgomery for about 30 years and had been considering a move for some time. Each visit here reenforced in us that this was where we wanted to live. So we picked out a design that suited us, and we got in touch with the realtor listed on one of the fliers we picked, up who was Larry (LJ) Smith. When we had questions, he always had the right answers and was willing and ready to help us as a liaison between us and the builder, regularly checking with us to make sure the work was done right every step of the way. If it wasn’t just the way we wanted it, he immediately made certain that it was. LJ was a true friend to us, and still is. We finished our home and moved in two years ago and I honestly can’t imagine living anywhere else. He still checks in regularly with us.

Emily Blossom was been amazing to work with on both the sale and purchase of our homes in The Waters. Emily is super responsive, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend working with Emily if you are looking to buy or sell!!

I can not recommend Emily Blossom enough! She worked tirelessly with us as we were moving across the country to figure out exactly what we wanted so that we were able to hit the ground running as soon as we arrived. When our first home choice ended up not working out, she found us an even better option that fit both our wants and needs perfectly. I couldn’t believe how easy the whole process was, even in the middle of this crazy market.

New Waters Realty was amazing. We worked with Kelly Fike on the sale of our house. She is an amazing person and explained everything along the way. First class service.

Jeff Dickey did a fantastic job helping us sell our home. We would highly recommend him and New Waters Realty if you are looking for help with selling/buying a home!

We initially met Emily Blossom at The Waters Sales Office when we were searching for our new home. Emily did an excellent job helping us find the perfect home at The Waters. We were so pleased that we asked her to list our existing home in Marbury. Our home was under contract and sold in a little over a month! We would absolutely recommend Emily!

In my experience, there was no better realtor than Jeff Dickey. Buying a home is a stressful and strenuous transaction, yet in every aspect of this process, Jeff was informed, encouraging, and reassuring. We purchased a new home, and even in the walk-through procedures, Jeff was observant, careful, and most helpful in the scoping out of imperfections all in effort to secure the PERFECT homebuyer experience for us. He was an advocate for us. He made sure this was a stress free and simple ordeal for us and we cannot be happier with our house. If you need him, he answers. If you have a question, he will find the solution. If you have ANY dealings in real estate, Jeff Dickey is the man you want as a part of your plan!

Emily Blossom is the absolute best! As a seasoned home buyer, Emily went above and beyond to find my perfect home. She communicated throughout the entire process, from house hunting, writing the contract, closing, and beyond. Thank you Emily and New Waters Realty for making home buying easy.

When we started looking at The Waters in Pike Road for our home “LJ” was ready, willing and able to put up with our traveling back and forth from model home to model home as well as existing homes. The search, which took over two months and encompassed many questions from us, was made enjoyable by “LJ” and ended with our purchasing an existing home which we are very pleased with. The transition to The Waters lifestyle has continuously been made easy by “LJ” and the staff at The Waters and New Waters Realty.

My husband and I recently purchased a home in our dream location of Pike Road, AL. Jeff was the absolute best and was so helpful, knowledgeable and patient with us. He helped us sell our previous home in less than a week. He worked day in and day out, even some late nights to make sure we found our perfect home. We love our new home and appreciate Jeff so much!

Emily Blossom made our move from out of state as easy as possible. She spent an entire day on the weekend showing us options for our new home. And once we made a pick, Emily held our hands from contract through closing. Even after closing she followed up with us to make sure the transition went well. We could not have had a better experience!

Jeff & New Waters Realty are the best!! He helped us buy a home from out of state within a nearly impossible time window! I highly recommend him to help you find and buy your new home! Thank you, Jeff.

I bought a homesite in The Waters community and couldn’t be happier!  I shared with Becky that I probably wasn’t going to be an easy customer. She was incredibly patient, kind, considerate, and understanding of my unique circumstances. I can’t tell you how many times I toured the neighborhood before deciding on a location. Becky was accommodating along the way. Even after I chose the lot and signed the contract, she continued to work with me on zeroing in on build plans and continues to this day. She pays close attention to details and even shared a sketch with me of a house that I described, in casual conversation. If you are looking for a house by the lake, call Becky and tour The Waters community. Both Becky and The Waters community are awesome!

We hired Steve Jarret to list the home that we built and had lived in for approximately 24 years. Though it is a seller’s market, Steve went above and beyond in hiring the appropriate photographers, making sure the home was ready for sale, and was always prompt in returning calls/emails and taking care of every aspect of this transaction. Though we were the sellers, I know Steve provided the same personal attention to the buyers. I do not provide recommendations very often but when I do it is because of receiving exceptional service. I highly recommend Steve Jarrett for all real estate transactions.

They were great to work with. Jennifer and Jessica were able to show me a house at a moment’s notice. I can’t say enough good things about them.

Great!!!! Jeff help me sell my house efficiently and with no issues. Everything went smoothly.

We had the pleasure of working with Jeff Dickey of New Waters Realty during the sale of our home. Jeff went above and beyond duty, as he handled almost all of our affairs in Alabama, as we had relocated to Florida during the closing of the home. Jeff coordinated the affairs related to the home flawlessly and we felt completely satisfied with his work. Jeff is an honest, caring, and dedicated professional real estate agent, and we would recommend him to anyone needing real estate assistance of any sorts. Thank you Jeff !!!

Jeff Dickey is awesome to work with – I cannot say enough about him as a realtor! He helped us find and purchase our home. We were looking for a very unique property with a second master for my mother in law, and boy did he deliver! He knew of one that was coming on the market and got us in to see it the day it hit the market. He worked quickly and diligently to submit our offer and land not just a house that would work but our DREAM home! I would highly recommend him as a realtor!

Jeff was a tremendous help in our entire process! Not only did he help us with the entire real estate transaction, he was a key player in the building process! He kept a constant communication log and made sure we were informed on every step. I think Jeff’s experience as a realtor and his desire for truly helping people are what makes him the best!

We often remark on how our move to The Waters in Pike Road was meant to be! During a visit with our son and family (who was stationed here attending the military college), we took a drive to visit various communities. We had been looking for a place to get out of the cold Wisconsin winters. Everything we looked at in Alabama and elsewhere had a sterile feel. And then we drove down the Avenue of the Waters! It was love at first sight! We looked at a few model homes and called LJ Smith at New Waters Realty to ask some questions. His response, “I have just the lot for you!” and he was right. We bought the lot the next day.We went back to Wisconsin and didn’t return until the home was built. It was really just that easy. LJ made it the smoothest by far of the four homes we have built. It was exciting to receive all of LJ’s photos during the build process. It’s been two years and all the neighbors on every side have been such a gift. They are all wonderful, warm and friendly folks. Walks in the neighborhood are longer than expected as everyone stops to chat, even strangers. We still pinch ourselves!

I used Emily Blossom as my selling agent for my home. She was ALWAYS readily available to any answers questions I had. Emily was always professional and provided valuable knowledge to get my home sold. I cannot recommend her enough! Thanks Emily!

Steve Jarrett went above and beyond to help locate what would fit our needs for our future home. It was never to early or late to call him and he was always spot on with the answers. Thank you Steve!!

Wonderful team here! Always friendly, professional, and a joy to work with every time! Come make a life surrounded by wonderful folks at The Waters!!

Lynn McKinley helped us sell our home and purchase our new home. She was so helpful and attentive that it made the whole process easy! Lynn was patient, understanding and treated us like family. We would recommend her to anyone who is searching for a realtor.

It was a pleasure working with Jeff Dickey from New Waters Realty. He was friendly, professional, responsive, and organized. He helped us to choose the perfect lot/home with a wonderful view and the whole process was easy and smooth. It was such a positive experience and we’re enjoying our new home – thank you Jeff!

-Lee Woo-Seok

I can’t say enough wonderful things about the experience we had with Jennifer Atkins in selling our house and building our new home. She was readily available to answer questions, schedule appointments, and offer help in any way. Even more than that, she was a huge encourager and advocate. She helped make both experiences as seamless and easy as possible. We’re thankful for her expertise and professionalism, but also her friendship.

Lynn McKinley listed my home. We received a contract on the first day and closed in under a month! The sale could not have been any easier than it was. I lived in Florida at the time and Lynn was able to meet a contractor to coordinate repairs for the closing. I would recommend Lynn to anyone who has a home to sell, or if they are buying a home. It was a pleasure to work with her during this process. Lynn is very professional and knowledgeable and makes selling your home a pleasant transaction.

We looked for a home on our own for months. Finding the right home was not easy and getting it to contract stage was even more difficult. We called Steve Jarrett to look at a home he had listed and our whole experience changed. He was an answer to our prayers. I think he wanted us to have the house as much as we did! If you are looking for a realtor who is honest, communicates and proactively advocates for the seller and the buyer, Steve is your Realtor. He was professional, listened to our needs and offered to help in so many ways. He has also been resourceful in giving referrals for services that we needed before moving into the home he helped us purchase. Buying a home is such a personal experience and we feel we have met a new friend. We are thrilled with Steve’s excellent service!

The purchase of a house is the largest investment that most people will ever make so it is a huge decision and can be a stressful process. Jeff skillfully guided us through the selling of our home and buying a new home in a very hot real estate market. His guidance was invaluable throughout the process and he was always willing to answer any questions we had. Would highly recommend him to anyone in the River Region area looking for a home or interested in selling a home.

Emily Blossom is amazing. She helped my husband and I find our dream home, in our dream neighborhood! She made the home finding and buying process so easy! She did all the heavy lifting. If we had questions or needed anything, Emily was always available and willing to help! I cannot express how stress free Emily made everything for us. – Brittany B.

I recently sold my 10.5 acre lot in Coosada, AL with the help of my realtor, Jeff Dickey. I was extremely impressed with Jeff’s professionalism, responsiveness, and knowledge. He was always available to answer my questions, explained all the paperwork to me in detail, and handled the entire process in a timely and efficient manner. His expertise in the local market also gave me great advice on how to get the most out of the sale. I highly recommend Jeff Dickey to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. His dedication and expertise made the entire process a breeze.

We are certainly pleased with the services we had with our agent, Lynn McKinley. She is very thorough, persistent and hard working. She is definitely highly recommended, somebody who is reliable and you would wish she’ll be at your side when making sensible real estate decision.

Lynn McKinley made my buying process so easy. I would not have my house today if not for her. I was planning on passing this one up but Lynn said “Let’s just take a look at it”. I fell in love with the house as soon as I walked in. Lynne has spent several months working with me, and drove over an hour several times to get to my area of interest. She answered all of my crazy questions and listened when I was feeling down with the house hunting. She kept telling me I would find the one and I did. You will not regret working with Lynn.

What a pleasure it was working with Jeff Dickey! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a home in the Pike Road – Montgomery area. His professionalism, patience and wonderful sense of humor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. We were relocating from the West Coast and relied on Jeff’s local knowledge since we were unable to be in the area during our home search. He kept in touch with us regularly via phone, email, text and videos. We made a few offers before finding our “dream” home and Jeff was always very patient and supportive of our decisions. In addition, we appreciated his honest input to our many questions. We are grateful for his commitment to finding us our “forever” home and we’re happy to not only call him our Realtor but our friend as well.

Steve Jarrett is the best. He was exceptionally professional, available, knowledgeable, and punctual. He worked tirelessly to make the home selling and buying process less stressful for me.

As a first-time homebuyer, Jennifer helped out every step of the way! She was very responsive- texts/emails back within minutes and answered any phone calls any time of day. She helped us understand what to look for in a house and sent us specific listings the minute they came up. She is very personable and I would highly recommend New Waters Realty!

I had a very positive experience with New Waters Realty agent Steve Jarrett. I really didn’t know what all to expect with the changing housing market. Steve was very knowledgeable about the properties that I was interested in and that made me feel comfortable working with him. He gave his honest opinions on any and all questions I had during the process. What stands out for me is that I was supported through the ENTIRE process from VIEWING the property to CLOSING!! My home buying experience was easier than I thought it would or could be. Steve was always professional and responsive throughout the process. I sincerely appreciate his efforts.

Emily was an absolute dream to work with. She was responsive and such a wealth of knowledge throughout the entire process. This was our first time building a home and she was always there along the way to answer any questions and concerns we had. She made this experience easy and we are so grateful for all the hours she put into making sure everything was taken care of and done in a timely manner.

We bought our home at The Waters in Pike Road. Having visited the neighborhood several times prior to finding our new home, living there seemed like a dream. With the wonderful help of our realtor Larry “LJ”  Smith, we toured the neighborhood and realized this was definitely the dream we wanted to come true. LJ was able to find the perfect home for us and made our dream a reality. We have been overjoyed since the day we moved in. It is absolutely beautiful out here and every day feels like a vacation. We feel so blessed to be able to call The Waters home.

Emily Blossom is an awesome realtor and truly listens to your wishes and needs. Initially we sought another home at The Waters in Pike Road, but it was already under contract. However, Emily heard our initial needs and further wishes during the home building process. As a result, we found a home that better suited our needs and one we are even happier to own than the first. That’s only possible because of Emily’s ability to navigate us through the process.

Jeff Dickey is a professional Real Estate Agent, very trustworthy, responsive and a great individual. His approach to the real estate buying and selling process is a truly pleasure to experience and a memorable undertaking to an already large and emotional decision. Jeff provides honest service that exceeds all expectations at every step in the real estate transaction.

Emily Blossom exceeded our expectations. She provided prompt and thorough responses and was always available for assistance throughout our build project and home purchase.

I highly recommend New Waters Realty. Jennifer and Laura are professional, responsive, courteous, knowledgeable, organized, thorough, positive, and delightful. They communicated with me weekly regarding the sale of my home and made the process smooth and seamless. Thank you for your excellence!

It was such a wonderful experience doing business with Steve Jerrett. His professionalism was extraordinary. We never felt any pressure. He made us feel as though he was totally on our side, looking out for us and made us feel safe in his care. Our business was desired and not just an obligation. Our entire family loved Steve. He became apart of the family. As you may be aware, selling a home and purchasing a new home is a stressful experience, but Steve had an amazing ability to bring peace and calm to the entire process, most likely due to his strong skills as a State Trooper. He hit the ground running. He would always say “On it”! He truly was on it. He worked so hard for us. No matter what we needed or asked, he had fantastic resources. They answered him within minutes. Nothing we asked of him ever seem to be an inconvenience. He made us feel like he was always available for us at any hour. He genuinely cared about our happiness. We will always and only do business with Steve. He was a Trooper for the State and now a Trooper for Real Estate!

We loved working with Steve Jarrett at New Waters Realty. He was very professional, knowledgeable, & personal! He cares about his clients and was extremely communicative and easy to reach to answer any of our questions at all times. He made selling our house such a breeze. Within days, we had three offers, one of which not only met but far exceeded all of our goals. Our house sold in a week for the asking price!! He worked well beyond what one could expect, staying in touch constantly. We would definitely recommend Steve and New Waters Realty for any of your real estate needs.

We began looking at houses and had set our sights on one that met our wants and needs. The next day we met Steve and got to look at the house where we made an offer. Steve was awesome and helped us with just about everything all in less than a month. We closed on our first home today!!! Thanks Steve!!!

Great experience! Steve is amazing. He responds in a timely manner to any questions and was informative through the whole process! He made the showing and selling process a worry free experience!

Jeff was so patient with us in deciding on our first home! We looked at so many different houses and went back and forth on our decisions. Jeff answered all of our questions (and there were a lot!), stayed in close contact with us and worked with us to get the perfect home for our family. He also got major bonus points from me for the thoughtful and unique gift after the purchase of our home! I highly recommend Jeff and New Waters Realty to work with for selling or purchasing a home.

There are not enough words on a page to describe how awesome our agent is. L J Smith is the man!LJ guided us through the entire process of building a new home at The Waters, virtually, and continues to take care of us today. My agent is part of the team for life. LJ is an expert at his craft and invests in people and partnerships … he’ll take care of you!

We had an extremely well qualified agent who led us through everything perfectly. He couldn’t have been more helpful. If we had a question, he answered us promptly. The property was listed, and in three days we had a contract for full price. He was very personable, kind and professional. He made selling our home a breeze! I would recommend Steve Jarrett to anyone who is in the market for a realtor. He is the best!

We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent to sell our home! Jeff Dickey values friends, faith and family and that it evident in his work ethic and loyalty to his clients. His knowledge in the market is only surpassed by his cool and calm personality when handling all of the details when it comes to selling a home. We highly recommend Jeff for any and all of your real estate needs. Thanks again Jeff!

I’m so thankful for everything Lynn did to sell my house in Montgomery. Since I had moved out of the city, it gave me peace of mind to know that Lynn would be there to take care of the sale of my home. She made the remote sale so much easier for me, since this was my first time as a seller.

My husband and I considered selling our home without an agent until we met Steve Jarrett. He made us feel comfortable and secure and was very knowledgeable about the current real estate environment. We had some hiccups with buyers but Steve guided us through and provided constant communication until we closed. I highly recommend Steve to anyone looking to buy or sell. You’ll be glad you did!

Becky Haigler exceeded our expectations. Relocating from out of state; she made alot easier. For all the reasons you want to work with someone who loves what they do; those are the reasons you should call her.

Jennifer and Jessica were absolutely amazing in helping us purchase our home! They were constantly checking in, making sure items were completed, and overall just made the experience much smoother and less stressful for our home buying experience. I HIGHLY recommend them for your home buying needs! Thank you New Waters Realty!
