Testimonials

Working with Walt was great. We was able to find us exactly what we were looking for. He was always prepared, found the answers to our questions, and did not give up until we found exactly what we needed.

Patience is a virtue and Walt has plenty! We looked at many houses once we decided to downsize last summer. The third home we offered on was the winner and we couldn't be happier. Selling our home after the summer rush and into the winter months was more of a challenge but we persevered with Walt's help and ended up with a couple offers to choose from, with Walt keeping us informed every step of the way. If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, patient, kind and conscientious - choose Walt!

I cannot express my gratitude and thanks enough for how well Walt has made me feel during this entire process. After having just gone through a divorce and not wanting to stay or fight for my current home, I opted to find a new place. Since the day I started this and having Walt reach out and connect even before I was able to get out and start looking, I felt like I just got a new friend! For me, someone who only has a handful and very introverted, Walt was always there for me and with tons of patience. The housing market is pretty rough lately and to be able to have someone helping along the way, I truly can't say enough or thank him enough! There were a couple of times I just wasn't sure if I could find the right house to call home, months went by and not once did I feel rushed or that I had to settle. Even through the holidays, Walt was there for me helping get things done with my offer to make certain we would be able to get the timing just right. I most certainly will always recommend Walt to everyone I am able to. Walt, thank you again so very very much! I truly am grateful for all your help, time, and patience. You are a remarkable person and truly out there helping those of us find not just houses but our homes!

Walt did an amazing job at helping me understand anything I was curious about during the home buying process. This was my first home and I was impressed with how he made sure to clarify any details regarding what steps needed taken to make a smart purchase and what to look for during showings. He made sure I wasn’t feeling pressured into buying anything. With that being said, Walt is extremely knowledgeable and made the whole process smooth so I greatly appreciate his help.

We are incredibly thankful to have had Walt on our team throughout our homebuying journey. We first met Walt through my daughter’s basketball team, and from the start we were impressed by his character, professionalism, and the tireless effort and sacrifice he put into helping others as a coach. It was clear to us that these same qualities would make him an excellent partner in our real estate journey. Working with Walt confirmed that decision. His responsiveness and patience in explaining each step of the process made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel manageable and even enjoyable. He guided us with clarity and confidence, ensuring we fully understood our options and felt comfortable with every decision along the way. Walt’s expertise and professionalism were instrumental in navigating negotiations smoothly, ultimately helping us secure our dream home at exactly the price we were hoping for. Walt was truly the key to making our goal of homeownership a reality. Thanks to his dedication, our family now has a home we love. We have already recommended him to friends and family, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone with real estate needs. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Walt went above and beyond helping us find our dream home. He is very knowledgeable and had an answer to every question we asked. He was available any time we wanted to see a home and made sure to show up 10 minutes or earlier.

He's hard working and advocates for your needs. Till next time, Walt!

Extremely caring and personable. Always knew he had nothing but the best intentions when aiding me in my home-buying experience.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Walt Cerrato to sell my home, and I couldn't be more impressed with his expertise and dedication. From the very beginning, Walt demonstrated his skills by providing invaluable advice before, during, and after the sale of my home. As this was my first time selling a home while also moving out of state, he provided guidance and really took alot of the burden away while I was occupied with the transition. If you're looking for a real estate agent who will go above and beyond to get the job done, I highly recommend Walt Cerrato.

We used Walt Cerrato to sell our rental property. He made the entire process a pleasant experience from completing the listing paperwork, negotiating with the buyer to finalize the deal, and then to the signing at closing. He was there for us every step of the way. He stayed in contact with us to let us know when there was a showing and any feedback he received from the other realtor. He sold the property for the amount that we wanted in less than two weeks in a time when the interest rates are higher than they have been in years. I can't say enough about his, knowledge, honesty and professionalism. I would highly recommend Walt as your realtor and will use him again in the future.

Walt was amazing throughout our entire buying and selling experience. It is a stressful time, but Walt’s knowledge of the market and contracts, and his negotiation skills were incredibly helpful. It is so beneficial to have someone like Walt on your side.

Walt did an absolute amazing job helping us with the purchase of our home! He was always available and he’d helped us find exactly what we wanted in an area we wanted that met every need!

Walt Cerrato is an upstanding realtor who focuses on the client. He was able to return all results that were asked of him. Additionally, provided transparent and honest guidance on the process as well as what to expect at each step. Cannot speak more highly of my experience.

Walt did a wonderful job. Did everything we asked him to do and look into. He was a wonderful guy to work with was nice and friendly. He made buying a house nice and easy when we found the one we wanted.

Working with Walt was such a breeze. He listed a property for me I wanted to sell. I have done the "for sale by owner" before and what a pain. Walt took care of everything, even odd requests I didn't want to deal with. He was always available to call or text to answer any questions I had, give any advice to help the sale, or just update me on what was happening during the process. He priced the property right and sold it in 2 days with multiple offers. Walt was selected to list the property because of a recommendation from my daughter when he helped her purchase a home. And I couldn't agree with her more. I highly recommend working with Walt. You won't be disappointed.

Walt Cerrato was very professional with the purchase of my house. He went out of his way to let me know when a house that met my requirements went on the market. Walt set up appointments for me to look at the houses I wanted to see and answered all my questions. If he did not know the answer, he made sure he found out. Walt walked me through the inspections and all the closing papers I needed to sign. he made buying a new house easy and stress-free. I would recommend Walt Cerrato to all my friends and family.

Walt was great! He navigated us through the crazy market smoothly. We went in with open houses and advertising which resulted in over 20 showings the first week! We were able to sell our house within the time frame we had hoped and everything was a smooth journey. Walt is very responsive and pretty much always had an answer to any question we threw at him. Wouldn’t have gone with any other agent!

This home purchase was our best real estate experience ever! We have bought or sold five properties now, but this is our first time eager to write a glowing review. Walt was fantastic from start to finish! He answered a late-night call from us when our hearts dropped over a property. It turned out to be a very competitive offer process with tons of interest, making the whole experience nerve-racking. However, we never doubted that Walt cared as much as we did. He was committed to our success. Ultimately, we came out on top with the advice and guidance from Walt on how to make our offer stand out, a crucial part of our home-buying situation. He stayed in communication with us even to state there was no news. He stuck with us through every step, and we never doubted that he was working on everything (and then some) required of him. He was kind, helpful, thorough, and professional. There was a moment in the process that was very emotional for me, Walt was on the receiving end of that phone call, and he was so sweet and empathetic. I would hand him off to any of my loved ones for a realtor because I know they would be in caring, capable hands. We are now owners of our dream home, and we can’t thank Walt enough! Stop looking for a realtor; Walt is your guy!

Walt is the epitome of professionalism and knowledge of real estate in Stark County and even Summit County. (Yes, I had him all over looking for homes for me) Walt worked with me to not only find my next home but to also list my current home in Historic Ridgewood. He would always keep in touch and keep me in the loop as things would develop on each side of the buying and selling process. This was the first time I was selling a home and Walt made it an enjoyable experience and gave me the tools to make the right destination for me and to also encourage me when I become discouraged.

He made sure he understood what I wanted out of the deal and was always looking out for my best interest offering his professional advice when needed.

Walt was instrumental in securing us our first rental property. He worked day and night trying to find us a property to purchase. One evening I sent Walt a property we wanted to look at and he worked to try and get us into the property that night! Once we purchased a property Walt was there every step of the way trying to help us in whatever way he could. Walt embodies his slogan “Cerrato Serves”. I cannot recommend Walt enough!

He is so knowledgeable and explains everything in full detail. He is such a nice and kind person and super patient. He is available pretty much at any time. It doesn’t matter what time it is he will get back ASAP. I’ve texted him a couple times at 1 in the morning and he’d still get back to me ASAP. He’s very easy to talk to and get along with. I will definitely be recommending everyone to go use Walt as a realtor and I will be using him when it comes time to sell and buy a new home! He’s the best! 5 out of 5!

He has been showing us commercial properties to purchase as well. We would highly recommend Walt for your real estate needs.

Walt was very helpful in getting our home sold! Even with the challenges during the time with Covid everything went smoothly. It sold the 1st weekend we listed.

Walt was everything that I needed in a realtor. He was eager to help me find exactly what I was looking for. He is incredibly personable and professional. Not one time did I feel pressure from him to be aggressive in my search or offers. He was always willing to talk me through any reservations I had about any part of the home buying process. He is a great communicator and was always answering my calls and texts promptly. He was incredibly honest in terms of his feelings about all the homes we visited (58), and about his knowledge base. He was never afraid to tell me he was unsure about something, and when he was, he always followed up with accurate answers after doing some digging. He recommended a great company and person to get all of my pre-approval and loan information completed, as well as a reliable home inspector. Walt also put a lot of work that I didn't see into helping me land my house. I know he was negotiating late into the night before our offer was accepted. I truly feel like Walt went above and beyond for me and I believe that he would do so for anyone that uses him as a realtor.
