“I knew moving across the state would be fairly stressful, but like I told Tom, I felt pretty vulnerable not knowing anyone over there. It was so nice to know we didnt have anything to worry about on our end. To have a friend that you can absolutely trust to act in your behalf is priceless. In short, if you need a realtor, do yourself a favor, just call Tom. ”

“My wife and I have used Tom Figlan and his team for a number of properties over the years. He has always followed closely what the market is and knows right where to price your home to sell it at the maximum price. I trust Tom and would recommend him to everyone because I know he is honest. Tom has also survived the Realeastate business through the good and the bad years! Even after many other people quit, he survived and made top realtor of the year, a number of times. Do yourself a favor, Tom helped us a number of times, shouldn?t he be helping you?”

“I can now attest to Tom's professionalism from the perspective of a not only a buyer, but a seller as well. Mr. Figlan's knowledge of the market is unsurpassed. He has always gone great lengths to ensure a smooth process for all parties involved. Perhaps most impressive, is his notion of service.

“My husband and I can not express how great our experiences over the years have been with Tom and how thankful we are to him and Cathy. Tom truly cares, he kept us and our needs in mind around the clock that created the opportunity to buy our house, which we wouldn’t have otherwise. We would not have the house we recently sold or the house we moved into without Tom, both due to different circumstances, but in both cases Tom worked hard, figured it out, and made our hopes possible. His dedication, determination, professionalism, knowledge of the field, and willingness to go (far) above and beyond to overcome various challenges in a difficult situation and market made our “forever home” a reality. My husband and I will be forever grateful to them and their kindness, patience, and persistence. Tom and Cathy are a great team and would 100% recommend them to anyone for any of your real estate needs!!”

“We had lived in the house for 35 years and we were looking to relocate to Georgia. I knew Tom from when we were neighbors and over the years saw his signs over and over again decorating lawns in the New Baltimore area. Listing and selling. I always knew I would call him when I wanted to sell our house and I am glad I did. I have learned after dealing with other realtors that Tom stands above them all. He is competent,knowledgeable, and reassuring in the toughest of times. Our move to Georgia was one that involved a year of planning and Tom fit into our complicated endeavor adding clarity to what seemed at times a complete fiasco. I would have liked him to be in Georgia looking out for our interests like he did in Michigan. I've never met a more down to Earth and trustworthy person in a business adventure than Tom. Without reservation I would strongly tell you to go with Tom. Tom Figlan did not disappoint and I will remember him kindly for what he did for Donna and me.”

“Knowing Tom for many years and his extensive knowledge of the City of New Baltimore real estate market was the reason we chose him to sell our home. We cannot thank him enough. We met with him on a Thursday morning & 2 days later we accepted an amazing offer. We have recommended Tom Figlan to several of our neighbors in the past that wanted to sell their homes and they were so happy with him also. If you want your home sold, we would highly recommend Tom. You will not find a nicer, honest, dedicated Realtor. Everything went smoothly and we are in our new home enjoying retirement and the grandchildren.”

“We were really nervous about selling our Mother's home and felt it wasn't ready yet for showing. Getting over your Mother's loss was already difficult. Tom's experience with Estates and Trusts put us at ease. He helped research the market with us and set a fair price for the home. It proved to be a success, as it was sold within a few days of listing. Also, the home was closed within 2 weeks at market price. Tom & Cathy's knowledge and expertise made the selling process go smooth from start to finish! Love their slogan and it's so true, Always Moving Forward. GOD BLESS you!!”

“"We recently found ourselves in a situation where our apartment lease was up, waiting for a new job to start, and commuting over 150mi/day for work. I reached out to Tom, never meeting him before, and explained our situation. Even though we were looking to buy a house over an hour away from his office, he immediately agreed to take care of us. Within the next couple hours he had sent us a phone app for searching and we began receiving emails with search results for homes nearby. Shortly after, Cathy was contacting us hoping to set up some showings and within a couple days she had organized double digit showings with all of our top choices. Sheri then spent the entire day with us going over many details that first time home buyers would neglect to notice. Although Sheri had made the 2hr round trip the day before, she and Tom came out for a second showing of our top choice. And as the saying goes, the rest is history; within just over a month of introducing ourselves to Tom, we have moved into our first home. His team pays attention to details, is a wealth of knowledge, and treated us like family. THANKS!"”

“"Tom helped me find my very first house many years ago. The whole process was new, complicated and scary for me. Tom's honesty and care made it a far less stressful experience than it was set to be. Eventually, he sold this house for me and found me a second one that he too sold me for several years later. 20+ years after that, I called him again to find me a condo to move into. He found me the perfect condo during our first day out looking at properties. That makes me a 5-time customer. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody. Trust and honesty sums it for Mr. Figlan."”

“"Being a first time home buyer, I contacted many real estate agents before being fortunate enough to hear of Tom. Of the many things that sets Tom apart from other... above all, honesty makes him stand out the most. It is what makes his success as a real estate agent so remarkable. In an industry that so much trust is placed in, it is an important and rare quality to possess. I used a VA loan to purchase my home, Advantage Realty also had excellent knowledge in this area that many others I encountered lacked. Across the board, Tom and his team possessed a knowledge base only those passionate about their work could. I would not hesitate to recommend Tom & Advantage Realty to anyone in need of a home."”

He emanates a sense of trust worthiness that makes you feel very secure during what is without a doubt, a very involved and stressful process. Tom is a true professional in every sense of the word and puts his client?s interests far above his own.

We will miss our old house but we are very happy with our new home. It's exactly where we wanted to live and exactly where our son should be. He is going to love living by all his friends and that's what matters most to us. You are a hard-working, honest person which isn't always easy to come by these days. I know when things got complicated with our old house at the end you had your hands in it to make sure the deal wouldn't fall through. You walked us through the entire process and it was comforting to know we had an experienced realtor working for us. Also, I'd like to make special mention about Cathy. Simply put, she was awesome. She was so good about answering our e-mails and/or texts quickly which is what we needed sometimes to calm ourselves down about a certain situation. Overall we are very happy with how things turned out and I realize the sale of our house may have fell through without you there making sure it didn't. We appreciated your efforts with that difficult situation. We want to thank You, Cathy and the rest of your staff for everything you guys did for us. We couldn't have gotten through this process without you. THANKS!!!!"”

Maybe not as flashy but much better if your the one buying the house. Tom's team helped guide us through the process from beginning to the closing, keeping us updated every step of the way. Buying the house was totally stress and pressure free. Since just returning to the area after many years away, I was not sure of the market, the prices or the procedures that might have changed while I was away, Tom's team really helped with finding & showing us the houses, then when we were ready to make an offer their guildence helped us make a strong, fair offer.

He made us feel that our needs were always important to him, made sure we understood everything that was going on, and that we were in the loop at all times. Cathy Wargo was also a great help and very patient when any time we had questions or there were any of those small panic attacks that come with real estate transactions-lol. We had activity on our house from the day it was listed and a buyer within 2-3 weeks, when other homes in our neighborhood were on the market for months. Tom has a great feel for the real estate market in the area, and we now see that?s why so many of his homes have SOLD signs on the so quickly. Many thanks to Advantage Realty, Tom Figlan, and his staff."”

He kept us informed every step of the way and calmed our fears when they arose. Tom connected us with Rob Laperre and together they saved the day at the closing when the title company?s computer system went down. Rob drove back to his office to print the documents so that we could close. I highly recommend Tom and the "Sold by Tom" sign will look great in your yard!"”

My wife Carolyn and I finally made the decision to sell our cottage on Lake St. Clair this past summer. It was a difficult decision but we knew that we would be well taken care of by Tom and his team. Tom moved quickly after we finalized the listing because he knew that for this particular type of property he had a short summer season to potentially find a buyer. We listed the property and had several showings but no offers. Once summer was over we thought that it would have to wait until spring to listed it again but Tom requested that we keep it listed through the winter as well. We received an offer on the property in December 2014 and closed on the property January 27, 2015. There was no stress or worries for my wife and I because we knew from past experiences that Tom and his team would handle everything for us.

“"I retired recently and my wife and I purchased a property out of state. We packed our belongings, arranged for the movers and then listed our current house with Tom Figlan of Advantage Realty Inc. Almost immediately from the day the house was listed, several showings were scheduled. Not long after, we accepted an offer. Two things made selling the property more difficult than normal sales. One, we were 2200 miles away and two the house was held in a trust. Tom kept us informed via e-mail and phone calls from the first offer right thru the closing. Since the property was vacant, he also checked on the house often and even installed a light timer to make the house appear "lived in" once it became dark. Tom arranged and contracted some maintenance work that needed to be done. He advised and guided us thru the legal issues of selling a house that is held in a trust. Tom could not have done more, it was as if the house being sold was his own. Selling a house and moving can be a stressful experience. Tom did everything possible to eliminate that stress.

Looking for a new home to fit your needs can be very daunting. However, having the right realtor makes the whole process a lot easier. We made the decision to down size in the fall of 2013 and listed our home with Tom Figlan in December 2013. We had an idea where we wanted to live however we had not a clue as to what was available and on the market that would fit our needs. Tom came to us by a recommendation through a friend. He stepped in, listed our home, started hunting for a condo to fit our needs, budgeted and eased our minds with this whole process. I never would have thought in April of 2014 I would have sold my home, had bought the perfect condo and would be moving so soon.

I am happy to say that I listed my home for sale with Tom and it sold very quickly. Last year, when I was ready to purchase another home, I did not even have to think about who I would call to go through the buying process. My previous experience with Tom and Advantage Realty was outstanding and so it was a "no-brainer" who I would use as my buyer's agent. I'm pleased to say (again) that it was a great experience! Dealing with Tom and his assistant, Cathy Wargo, was a pleasure. They do a GREAT JOB and are definitely on your side! I would highly recommend them if you're considering buying or selling."”

“"Tom & Sheri Figlan helped my buy my house 15 years ago. I've referred them to friends and they helped them sell and buy their houses. Recently, I needed to sell my dad's house for his estate. I think it was a record or at least rare occasion. It was only 5 days from acceptance of offer to closing and only 11 days from the time the sign went into the ground. My head is still spinning, but wanted to say "NICE JOB" again. For your real estate needs contact Tom and his great group. They're honest, give you the facts, and don't push you into something that you don't want. Thanks again."”

He kept me calm and completely informed about everything, every step along the way. Tom and his staff are very knowledgeable in their field. They treated me like family. Any questions or concerns were addressed right away. I always refer him whenever I hear of anyone buying or selling. I have since called about questions and he was great.

“"When deciding to sell what we thought would be our forever home, we met Tom Figlan. After interviewing several real estate agents, it was very clear to me that Tom was our guy. He was very trustworthy and patient while educating us on the entire process. He offered creative solutions to our circumstance, addressed all of our questions and concerns, and accommodated our needs. He sold our house quickly and streamlined the entire process. Since then, he has helped us sell one more home and purchase two others. Because of his professional expertise and more importantly his personable, client-centered approach, I will continue to seek out Tom for future purchases and will continue to refer friends and family."”

“"We have benefited from Tom?s services in two different capacities. First as a rental agent, his services were very comprehensive, from his advice and advertising to background checks on prospective renters. He was as concerned about preserving our property as we were, and quickly found us a very qualified, responsible tenant. Just as important however, he advised us to reject several unsatisfactory ones that were brought to us by other real estate firms due to the nature of the applications. Secondly we used Tom as a real estate agent when we finally decided it was time to sell the old place. Again his advice was well informed and spot on. The house sold in less than two weeks for more than our asking price, because there was more than one interested buyer. My wife and I respect Tom?s knowledge, experience and professionalism. Both he and his staff were quick to respond to our questions and concerns. We would not hesitate to recommend him, and have."”

“"Tom Figlan and I were introduced several years ago, as he came highly recommended from a former client. I was in a unique situation and in a hurry. A family friend offered to purchase my home (at the time), and was looking to move in quickly. I had entertained the idea about moving, but had not even begun looking when I was presented with the offer. It was a blessing in disguise. Tom was extremely helpful in understanding what I was looking for in my future home and time was of the essence. My girlfriend Holli and I soon found our dream house with Tom?s assistance. However, the only drawback was that it was a short sale. Tom was not discouraged and immediately went to work for us and secured a bid on the house. He is extremely knowledgeable and helped navigate us throughout the entire buying process. Tom also facilitated the purchase of my previous home with the new buyers. Throughout the entire process, he always made himself available to answer any questions. (And I had a lot.) Although the short sale process was lengthy, Tom?s expertise helped make it an enjoyable one. I cannot thank him enough for all of his hard work and dedication. Tom later went on to help sell homes for several of my friends and family and they could not be happier. He is someone we can count on to answer all of our real estate questions, and feel comfortable knowing we can always rely on him in the future. Tom will always be our first choice!"”

When the time came to start looking, Tom Figlan and the staff at Advantage Realty were there for us every step of the way and then some! We found our home very quickly and fell in love with it! Tom went above and beyond for us during this process, making something that can be stressful much easier on us.

“"We have used Tom to lease our home twice now. The first time we met him I was beyond impressed with his professionalism, knowledge, and overall presentation. I quickly became very comfortable with our choice to use him. We tried leasing our house a year prior with one of those "other realtors" and it stayed listed for 2 months with showings that did nothing more than inconvenience us. So when Tom had it leased on his first showing I was sold on the fact that he is the best at what he does. On the second time around I never gave it a second thought on who to use. He had it leased once again in under 2 weeks. The whole process from beginning to end was never a hassle. He worked around my crazy schedule, put together a packet for us that guided us through our first time landlord experience, and left very little for us to worry about. Bottom line...there are a lot of realtors out there and then there are professionals at what they do. Tom is one of those professionals and ranks at the top. I will never use anyone else as long as he is working in the business."”

“"Our experience with Tom Figlan started in 1999 when we bought our first home in Eastpointe. Even though Tom was the seller's agent, he helped us with any questions or concerns that we had throughout the buying process. Through the years, if there was ever a time that we were thinking about selling or simply had questions, Tom was always the person we would call. We were always confident that he had the right answers. Whenever we had friends or family that needed an agent, we always gave them Tom's number and continue to do so! In 2011, my dad passed away suddenly and we were left with his home. It was filled with almost 50 years of hoarding of newspapers and magazines and such. Tom came down to Dearborn, walked through the house with us and told us everything we needed to do to get the house ready to sell. It took a good 5 months to get it ready. The entire time Tom was checking on us and giving us advice. When the time came to sell, we had one day of showings with 6 offers, all which were higher than our asking price! Then the "bump in the road" happened! My father never filed a deed to the house when he originally purchased it 50 years earlier! Tom jumped into action! He was actually able to locate the original owner who was actually out of state. Then was able complete the process through her children and attorneys to obtain a deed to the home that she sold to my father 5 decades ago! In the end, everything turned out great. Tom went above and beyond what we ever would have expected! Tom will always be our agent of choice!"”

After the care and attentiveness Tom showed us during the short sale, there was no doubt that Tom would be our realtor. Overall, Tom Figlan & his team are the utmost professionals. We would and have recommended them to anyone who may need real estate services."”

“"I have known Tom Figlan & his family since the early 90s. I would not even think of talking to another realtor. Tom has helped me tremendously when I sold my home in New Baltimore and purchase a condo in Chesterfield. Three years after purchasing my condo I decided to call Tom to put it on the market and look for another house. Being a single woman I felt that Tom was always looking out for my best interest. As we were looking at homes he would point things out to me. I never felt like Tom was in it just to get the sale. I appreciated that SO much! I never felt pressured to make a decision. His patience with all of our dealings were wonderful and meant so much to me. Tom Figlan has helped my son purchase/sell his first home and is currently working with my daughter with the purchase of her first home. Thanks to Tom and all of his staff who have been absolutely the BEST!"”

“"I can't recommend Tom and his staff enough for their professionalism and dedication. I recently went through a divorce and had to sell my house as a result. The house was sold through a short sale and we had to accommodate the bank as much as possible. Tom NEVER gave up, even though the buyers & bank were being unreasonable. He and his staff continued on and they got the house sold in time. That was a huge relief for me. Thanks again, TOM!"”

“"There is no one that I would trust more, with the sale of 2 homes and the purchase of my current home Tom made each step an easy transition. He was very knowledgeable with the market value of each home and understood about the competition in the surround market which affected why each home sold quickly. When the time came to find a new home, he knew exactly what I was looking for and provided excellent choices while offering his expert suggestions. I am thankful that Tom helped make a stressful time in my life run smoothly."”

“"I purchased my first home through Tom Figlan in 2008 and another in 2013. I couldn't have picked a better realtor. Sheri and Tom were so helpful throughout the process. Tom went above and beyond to ensure I was making the right decision for myself. He worked around my schedule and made sure every detail was followed up on even when I overlooked a few. Tom is a genuine, down to earth person so you can rest assured that you will be taken care of at all times. I would and will continue to refer Tom to everyone that is interested in purchasing a new home."”

“"Tom Figlan was our agent when we sold our home. Tom was professional and had our best interests in mind, right through closing. We were very pleased with the results. Before we purchased our new condo through a builder, we had questions and concerns about the purchase agreement?s language and figures. Tom, although not involved in the purchase and on his own time, met with us and thoroughly explained everything, easing our concerns. We would recommend Tom to anyone looking for an agent to represent them in buying or selling a home. Thanks Tom.?”

“"When Ken and I called Tom to help us sell our house and buy another one, we knew that it would be no easy task. Ken wanted some land with the house while I needed easy access to work and family. Tom answered all of our questions, returned our phone calls in a timely manner and quickly set up appointments to view the houses that we wanted to see. Whenever we ran into a problem, Tom would ?put out the fire? as he called it, and then we could proceed. We also enjoyed working with Tom?s wife Sheri who also helped us out during our house hunt. We looked at many houses before we found the ?right one?. Tom was very patient and always understanding of our situation. We would recommend Tom to anyone who is looking for a personable, hardworking, dedicated Realtor."”

“"Having sold several houses at various locations across the country, our experience selling with Tom and Advantage is by far the best in terms of accommodation, sound advice and commitment to a successful sale. Our six year association with Tom through the housing decline period was perhaps unusual. After the initial land contract sale, the buyer defaulted and Tom was instrumental in repossession, rental and resale going well beyond my experience with previous Realtors. we highly endorse selecting Tom and Advantage for one?s real estate needs."”

He carefully explained options, in terms that anyone could understand and really went the extra mile to sell my home.

We found you to be a honest and hardworking individual who really does pride himself on his knowledge of the business and the service you provide. The older I get, the more rare those qualities seem to be. I want you to know they are appreciated and are the obvious reasons you are successful. The things that impressed us the most about our experience with you, was you were never pushy or over bearing. You were patient, confident, you knew when to talk and had the wisdom to listen. You seem like real people Tom, not some polished salesman or someone doing this on the side. We have already recommended you to two couples we know will be looking to sell soon and will provide your name whenever anyone asks us for a recommendation. Thanks again."”

“"Tom Figlan and Advantage Realty came highly recommended to us during the pursuit of selling our home. We had extreme circumstances as we were in between two homes, but had to sell our home before we could close on our new home. Tom and his team had multiple offers to us within a couple weeks, and we accepted an offer within a month. Working with Tom and his staff was seamless. Everything was explained to us in great detail before the process began, so there were NO surprises at the closing table. I hold Tom and his staff in HIGH regard as they are extremely professional and will do everything in their power to makes things go smoothly. To this day, my wife and I smile every time we see an Advantage Realty advertisement. It was truly a great experience, during a stressful time."”

“"We would like to thank you for all your hard work and effort you put in to our short sale process. During the year of this process when times seemed so discouraging and endless you were there. You always had words of encouragement and assured us we would move forward and we did. When it was down to the wire you and your company fought hard for us. As you know we moved out of state and when it came to the day of closing there was a turn in events and you helped. You and your wife were generous enough to meet us halfway to sign the closing papers in the middle of the night. You don?t know how much we appreciate that you saved us 400 miles round trip!! Thank you so much Tom and we would highly recommend your service to anyone."”

“"I'll never forget the hard work, time, and professionalism Tom and Sheri Figlan put in to make our home sale and purchase incredibly successful. I was very impressed by Tom's ability to explain all aspects of the home sale process. He really gave us the confidence to list our home for sale in a depleted marked in Canton. Not only did our home sell incredibly fast, but we were able to start looking for our new dream home right away. Sheri and Tom stuck with us during the home buying process and traveled to our location many times (even through snowstorms) without a single complaint. They helped us discover what we wanted in a home and mentored us during the entire process. I've purchased a home in the past and deeply regret not having Tom as my agent. What a world of difference. I would recommend Tom to anyone who wants their home sold for all of its true value or for someone looking for the home of their dreams. You will not regret it!" ”

None. We connected, but it did not work out.
“I have a disability and Tom Figlan denied me housing because of my support animal. He told me all of the specifics of a property I was looking at. I then let him know about my support animal which is legally allowed in housing situations due to their assistance with disability. He said Thanks for your honesty. I'm not interested. It's sad when accommodation animals aren't accepted. People that need them wind up out of housing because of people like Tom Figlan. Tolerance and acceptance go along way.”

Helped me find a home to rent
“We rented a property that was shown by Mr. Figlan recently and had a pleasant experience. He was cordial and honest about the kind of tenants the owner was expecting and had a no-nonsense business attitude. He was knowledgeable about the property and if he wasn't sure about our questions he was very quick to contact the property owner to find out the information to let us know. We are now tenants of of property he showed and are very happy with our new home!”
