★★★★★
"Selling my property with Thomas as my realtor was painless! Thomas is a consummate professional, delightful person and wonderful to work with. What sets Thomas apart from other realtors that I have worked with is his ability to understand and respond to the needs of the client – through the process I always felt that Thomas kept me totally abreast of everything going on and in addition to selling my property, he was working in my best interests. I would recommend and have recommended Thomas to friends and family. -Lorraine Wilby"

★★★★★
"We did not have the luxury of time when selling our home in Wilton Manors, but did not want to feel pressured to sell it for less as a result. From the beginning of the process, Thomas was the perfect realtor to handle our stressful situation given his knowledge of the market, organization and professionalism, confidence, and optimism. He worked seamlessly with our tight timeline and was regularly in contact with us along the way so we knew exactly what was happening, when, and why. Never once did we feel pressured to make a decision we did not feel completely comfortable with. With his guidance and expertise, we ended up getting a cash offer over asking price with a 30-day close within 48 hours of listing (before the open house)! We could not have dreamt up a better outcome or a better person to handle the job. I would absolutely recommend Thomas and his team to others for any of their buying/selling needs. -Ed & Kelly D'Ottavio"

★★★★★
"When we decided to make the move from Florida to North Georgia, we were referred to Thomas by our Compass realtor in Florida. From our very first communication, we knew we were in good hands. Thomas listened to our needs and wants and shared his depth of knowledge of the area to help us narrow in on where we should focus our search. We were months away from visiting the area, but he began right away sending us listings to educate us on what different communities had to offer within our parameters. We eventually met Thomas in Blue Ridge and toured homes he and his team had curated for us. In 3 days we found the house we knew would be our home. Thomas and his team - most notably his right hand person, Blythe - made the contract and closing process a breeze. Their professionalism, great communications, network of resources and overall kindness made our home purchase an amazing experience. Whatever our future real estate needs may be in North Georgia, Thomas will be our realtor of choice. -Malcolm & Vicki Barit"

★★★★★
"Seamless. Smooth. Speedy. That’s how I would describe my experience of working with The Echea Group! Thomas and Lisa Echea are not only the most gracious and warm-hearted people you’ll ever meet but they bring pure passion to every project with a skill set to match! You’ll feel like you’re dealing with your favorite family member who genuinely wants the best for you and has the expertise to deliver just that!"

★★★★★
"Thomas - I'd like to take a moment to reflect back and thank you for your steadfastness, patience, guidance and enthusiasm along with a "can do" spirit on this leg of our journey together honoring the memory of Jacques. I'm absolutely certain this is exactly what Uncle loved about you the most. You have seamlessly moved us through sticky situations always striving with a spirit of perseverance and clarity of the highest calibre. If you explained something to me once, you explained it the 100th time with gentleness and compassion. Jacques and I spoke every single morning and he would say he "found a new home around the corner" and was going to get you to let him in to see it - or he found a home in Hillsborough near here where we live and I had to jump in the car and take a look right then and there. Jacques' list of must have was as big as his personality. Pool, a garage, a fenced yard for Hudson, workable kitchen, office, etc...anyway. I've learned many, many things and guess that's the meaning of life. Thank you for being you. Authentic. Sincere. Trustworthy. Everyone should have a Thomas in their life and I'm honored to have had you on my side if only for a while to be that rock for me when I needed to rest."

★★★★★
"I met Thomas Echea when he purchased the townhouse next to my unit and became my next door neighbor. Although I have had my Florida Real Estate license since 2002, in 2016 I decided to have Thomas and his team represent me in the sale of my townhome. His team was very professional and very patient and determined to help me get top dollar on my property after he agreed to the higher price point of my listing. We sold my townhouse for the highest recorded sales price- despite a recovery phase of real estate prices in Flagler village. And knowing I wasn’t selling until I found a condo to purchase first, Thomas contacted me to ensure I was the first to see the perfect condo and we immediately made an offer!"

★★★★★
"Thomas and Lisa helped us sell our home in just a few days. Their local knowledge and professionalism will make you stress free with the entire process, especially during this difficult time. Highly recommend their service."

★★★★★
"Thomas and Lisa were amazing! They helped us find the perfect place to call home and guided us along the way with any questions we had. I recommend The Echea Group for everyone."

★★★★★
"We used The Echea Group on the sale of our old property as well as the purchase of our new property. The Concierge Program offered by Compass allowed us to make upgrades to our property that got us our desired sale price without having to come out of pocket prior to selling the house. Thomas and Lisa helped us find a property that would be perfect for our family and we couldn’t be happier with their professionalism and handling of our situation. They helped us work through simultaneous closings on both our sale and purchase and their expertise minimized the stress for us. We highly recommend using The Echea Group for all your real estate needs."

★★★★★
"We had such a wonderful experience with The Echea Group the first time around that we asked them to list our home 5 years later. Thomas, Lisa, and Allison were always available to answer our many questions and always treat us like family! This team is the best of the best with extensive industry knowledge and expertise; they also offer great advice which leads to exceptional results. Thank you again, Echea Group!"
