Had a very bad experience when this agent represented me on the sale of my old house and the purchase of a new home. He will make you hurry to sign documents he should have already gotten signed (agent representation agreements, etc) when you list or buy, won't show up for walk-thru as he promised, and refuse to honor your request as to form of communication. His responses to requests for closing information on both houses were not timely. I would not recommend using this agent. I even gave him the opportunity to make things right for us by helping us with needless costs associated with closing delays on our old house (which I requested the information on but he did not get) and he refused. The buyer stated their agent kept them well informed of the delays. Considering the $15,000+ paind in commisions, $525 was too much to ask of him. Less

Response from Mike and Darlene Hastings

We have known the Gad's for 10 years and have shown them homes and given advice to them throughout our experience. They have a lovely family and we greatly appreciate the opportunity to have their business. We regret the misunderstandings that have taken place and wish them nothing but the best. We will always remain thankful to them for their vote of confidence in us to sell their home.

My wife and I met Darlene on the recommendation of a friend in Atlanta when we moved to Hendersonville. We were huge fans from the start. Darlene understood the nuts and bolts of Real Estate as well as anyone could, but she did so much more as she understood what we were looking for wasn't the typical house in a neighborhood. She didn't quit till we found our house in the hollow. We lived there almost 14 years...longer than either of us had ever lived anywhere our entire lives. When it was time to move, we called Darlene or course...now Mike and Darlene. They developed a sales plan for our home in the hollow that resulted in the perfect match between our 'unique property' and a delightful young couple ready for the challenges. A lot of realtors didn't 'get it' when they came up and some potential buyers missed the charm. Mike and Darlene got it from the get go. I've recommended Darlene and Mike to everyone I've met looking for a realtor. I've used them exclusively through the years for our new hires moving to town. I wouldn't use anyone else. I'm just so sorry they won't be in our new city and only hope we can find their doubles working just as hard and just as effectively down there...Thanks Mike and Darlene! Less

We worked with Mike & Darlene then moved to Atlanta and were "forced" to hire a different agent. It was so bad we called Mike & asked him to help find us a team Like his. He tried his best, but NO ONE takes care of their clients like Mike and Darlene, and their team. We are very glad to be living back in the Nashville area, and have had two great experiences with Mike and Darlene since moving back. We cannot recommend the Hastings group strongly enough.

This was my 2nd experience selling a house and these guys restored my faith in the process. The first time was probably the 2nd worst experience of my life. The Hastings team showed me how good it can be. They sold my house before it ever hit the market and helped make it a smooth ride. I can't recommend them enough. You can't go wrong with Mike & Darlene. Thanks guys for making this experience a great one!

My husband and I used Mike and Darlene when we moved to the Hendersonville area 10 years ago. We were first time home buyers and a bit nervous. They really put us at ease with their ability to answer every question we had ... and there were ALOT! LOL! We put our home on the market with them a month ago and it's already under contract. We were shocked! Now their buyer's agent, Miller, is working with us to find our next home. That's one thing that we really like about the Hastings' Team. You get them, Miller, and their office manager, Lisa. It's not like when you work with a single agent who is working with lots of clients at one time. With the Hastings' Team we're always able to quickly get in touch with someone who knows us and can answer a question or just fill us in on what is going on! Less

Many years before we knew Darlene and Mike I knew we wanted the Hastings team to sell our home. When we listed we called Mike Hastings who listed our home and sold it within about 8 months. He did everything he said plus. He did everything we ask him to do since we traveled lots he didn't have to do. We highly reccomend the Hastings team for selling or buying your home.

I went into buying a home completely clueless of the process. Mike and Darling Hastings group at Keller and Williams told me they wanted to make this a good experience for me and that they did! Miller Evans worked very hard to find the home that was right for me, not an easy task, but he did it. Miller listened and understood exactly what I was looking for. He was available to me for any questions or concerns and believe me, I had plenty of both. Even though it had nothing to do with Millers service, he listened and took action when needed and the nicest thing was, I could hear his smile over the phone. I never was made to feel like I was annoying him. The other members of the agency that I had contact with were just as impressive. Thanks Lisa. If you want honesty, trust, loyalty, excellent service and results these are your people. Less
