    If you are interested in selling your home look no further, the reviews don't lie! Tod Franklin will help you sell your home, and save you money. He takes time to answer all questions, and explains everything in detail, even if you are not directly working with him. My only regret is I wish I discovered his services earlier. I will continue to work with him in the future.

He was available to answer questions whenever I needed. I highly recommend this agency. This was the second home that Tod has helped us sale. In just 3 days we had our full asking price.

    This is the 2nd time we've used DFW City Homes to sell our house, and we couldn't be happier. It's the same professional service as any other agency - but at a fraction of the cost. Tod was easy to work with, responsive and extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the real estate market. Highly recommend.

    Tod Franklin of DFWCityhomes was my realtor for the recent sale of my home and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Previously, I have used full-service realtors and sold one home on my own, but now I can unequivocally say that Tod is the right choice! Not only was realtor fee substantially reduced, but he also saved me money when my buyer tried renegotiating. I received multiple offers and Tod went through each one, listing the pros and cons, helping me make the best choice. Tod stayed calm and made sure that every decision made was knowledgeable and not impulsive. After having seen how my sale was handled and how much Tod helped me, many of my family and friends have said they will be calling him when they sell their homes. I highly recommend DFWCityhomes and Tod Franklin as your next realtor!

    DFW Homes took care of the sale of my house flawlessly. They were professional through every step of the process. They did allow me to get the best offer and the most money and value for my property. They filled out and asked me to fill out all documents timely. The marketing video and description of the property was perfect. They also managed the multiple offers and setting the sales price properly

    My husband and I bought our first home with Tod Franklin at DFW City homes last month. I cannot put into words how grateful we were to have had such a knowledgeable, reliable and professional realtor such as Tod. We have heard the process of buying a house was extremely tedious from numerous friends and family but Tod guided us through step by step to ensure we were making informed decisions that were right for us. We are so appreciative of him always being in constant communication with us and answering our (my) seemingly endless questions!! We highly recommend him and any friends/family we hope to have following us from NY we will sure send his way!

    Buying and finding a house at the top of the market was not an easy task. Anytime there was a house we wanted to see, Tod Franklin moved fast as houses were flying off the market. He was very knowledgeable, professional and personal. Tod explained everything in a way that was easy to understand from the making the offer, to working with the mortgage company and never pressure us to buy anything that we don't like or hesitate. Tod really cared about us and understood our needs. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home.

A couple of hours with Tod and the house was on the market. 2 days later and 8 offers the house was sold over asking price. In addition, we saved over $18,000 in realtor fees!! Give it a try - a more modern and efficient approach to selling your home.

    We recently purchased our first home in Dallas. Buying a home for the first time, especially in this market was stressful to say the least but we were lucky enough to have Tod Franklin as our realtor. He is everything you would want in a realtor- professional, extremely knowledgeable and patient. We have learned so much in the short time we have known Tod and we are very grateful for the time and energy he spent on helping us find our home. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the Dallas area!

    Tod does it again! After working with him to sell/buy in 2016, I was a little worried that Tod wouldn’t still be offering his flat-fee listing services. But when I called him to ask, he not only advised he could still sell my home for less than $1,200, he answered the phone with a “Hi Cody”. I have no idea how many other people he’s helped in the past 5 years but him keeping my number and remembering my wife and I just further exemplifies the amazing, personal service you get with Tod. As before, he came out within a few days to take beautiful, professional photos of the house and walked me through all the steps of the selling process with patience and detail. With his thorough market analysis and pricing strategy, we were able to sell our home after just one weekend of showings. Tod handled all the negotiations as always and got us everything we wanted in a buyer. As always, the best part of his amazing service is that he does it for a fraction of the cost any other agent would charge, no strings attached. I Zelled him $595 at listing and the other $595 was taken out at closing…Even our title agent thought it was a mistake! Thanks to Tod, we kept an extra $14,050 of our own money to put toward our next home. Stop paying all your hard earned equity to agents who still take a percentage… especially in this market!!! Can’t thank you enough Tod. Can’t wait to work with you again when we buy next year!

    Hello! My name is Stacy and I have worked with Tod Franklin and DFWCityHomes to both sell and purchase a home. Three years ago, Tod was patient and intentional with me through the emotional process of selling my first home. He also took stunning show photos of my house, allowing us to put our best foot forward with potential buyers. Tod was able to share his knowledge of the industry, market, and transactions in a way that was easy for me to understand. When I got ready to buy a home this year, he was my first phone call! He has once again demonstrated patience and intentionality by listening to my specific desires for a home and answering the many questions I had along the way. Even in today's unprecedented market, we found my dream home! Tod's professionalism, competency, and authenticity are much appreciated when making such a major life and financial decision. I will no doubt call him again; and if you are looking to buy or sell, you should too!

    Tod Franklin brings in years of experience as real estate broker and is excellent with his knowledge of the real estate market, he is very thorough and meticulous in the process to be followed for listing a home and selling it and guides you every step of the way. I must say that Tod wins you over with his calm demeanor, confidence and places one at ease through this whole process. The pictures and videos he takes are excellent and truly shows the home in its true and excellent form in the listing and to top it all the monetary value for the services provided by DFWcityhomes is exceptional. The office staff are great to interact with, especially Bell who is very quick in responding to emails and answer any queries you may have in a prompt manner. I would highly recommend Tod Franklin/DFWCityhomes for your next home purchase or sale.

    I cannot say enough about Tod the services he provides with DFW City Homes. We hired him on a Flat fee Service basis. In the beginning, he met us at our home and reviewed all of the listing contract and then assisted us with our listing and pricing. He then took professional pictures of our home, provided a sign for our yard, and provided a key lock for realtors to have access. A few days later, he had completed the MLS listing, sent it to us for approval, and then posted it on multiple websites. He also signed us up for a website that allows us to receive notifications for showings which allows the owner to approve or disapprove/move the showing times. That website also sent reviews of the home by the agents that showed the home, a very helpful feature. A few times we had realtors (and one individual that was unrepresented by a realtor) reach out to Tod to express interest and/or ask questions. Tod was always very prompt and very professional in forwarding information to us to respond. We had a contract on the home within 6 days. Tod helped to facilitate our negotiations by giving his professional advice on the contract and guided us on contractual verbiage and laws. We were able to close on the home in less than one month. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. We would HIGHLY recommend DFW City Homes and Tod to anyone looking for a Flat Fee Service listing.

  • Awesome company! We had a wonderful experience with Todd and his team. Everyone provided top notch customer service throughout the entire process.

  • Tod Franklin is the realtor at this agency. For a great value, he provides full service. He explained the process and the market situation and helped sell our house at the right price. He took good pictures of our house and was prompt in responding to any of our questions.

    Tod helped us for the second time sell our home and was great. We wish we could have used him to purchase our home for a second time but this time we were relocating out of state. Tod does so much to help in the sales process, he takes great pictures, does a thorough video walkthrough, his market research is spot on and he is able to answer any question. Our sales process hit some bumps along the way and Tod was patient and continued to diligently work with us even when our first buyers fell through after stringing us along for months. The help Tod provides for the cost is almost unbelievable and we would use him again in a heartbeat. Thanks so much Tod!

    I have had the pleasure of using Tod on my last two home sells. He provides great value / quality and was always very responsive. His compensation model is perfect, not only for Investor who don't need some of the extra frills that come with a full price brokerage but, also for homeowners who feel the same. I will be using Tod for all my future transactions.

    If you don't use Tod Franklin and DFW Cityhomes you are literally throwing thousands of dollars away. I have to admit that I was skeptical of their pricing being so low. How could one real estate agency charge 3% of the selling price to list our home ($18,000) while DFWCityhomes charges less than $2,000? Well here's the difference ...... Tod did everything a listing real estate agent would do except actually show the home in person. He came and discussed pricing strategies, did comps of houses like ours in our area, took amazing photos and listed us on MLS .... just like the real estate agents that charge 3%! The only difference is that instead of having your agent make appointments to meet prospective buyers at your property, DFWCityhomes uses a service that contacts you by text or email to advise you when someone wants to view your home and you can either be there or not as DFWCityhomes provides you with a lockbox so other agents can access your home for approved appointments. Also, you get to determine what times and days you will make your property available and when it isn't. It was so easy! We sold our house for OVER asking price to the first prospective buyer. Tod took care of all of the paperwork and answered all our questions and concerns and was critical in making sure the deal closed. I will NEVER pay 3% again, and neither should you.

    I needed to sell my house after only living there a year and would not have been able to do so without Todd's Flat Fee Service (i.e. I sold it for what I bought it for without losing all of my equity to commission). I was impressed by his photographs, which are the biggest selling point online, and he was just as responsive as a full service agent.

Tod was able to secure a full price contract and walked me through the whole process without me even having to worry about it once. I’m absolutely thrilled with Mr. Franklin’s representation of the sale of the home and I’d use him again if needed for the sale or purchase of the home. I’m happy to refer everyone I know to him.

    I've worked with Tod for over 5 years now, he has listed 2 properties on sale for me and I have gotten his help buying 2 properties as well. My last listed property had an active contract in less than 3 days from posting it as Tod made sure there was a "coming soon" advertisement before it actually went live, and the closing was smooth. Also his rates are the best in the market, and when you get quality and those rates you can't beat it. I recommend Tod and his company if you are either buying or selling real estate.

  • I am a seasoned investor, and always use Tod to represent me when I sell. Always professional and easy to work with

  • About 2 years ago I sold my house with a "full service" realtor. After a bad experience, I didn't want to pay 3% again when it came time to sell my next house. Tod took better pictures, was more responsive, and did a better job walking us through the process than the "full-service" realtor. I never once felt that the cheaper price impacted the service I received. Tod actually found and corrected the mistakes made by the buyer's (3%) agent . We had a full offer within about 2 weeks and closed quickly. I would recommend Tod to anyone.

    I can’t recommend Tod enough!! He was a great realtor from start to finish. He patiently showed us a lot of houses, never pushing us to make a quick decision. He is very observant to detail and knowledgeable about what to look for in the structure of a house. He was a skillful negotiator and gave very wise counsel on our contract. We bought and sold our house with Tod and when things were not going well on our selling side, he was very responsive and attentive to get all the issues worked out. He has been in the industry a long time and understands all the intricacies and options available. He is a great professional and a very kind person. This is our second house we bought with Tod and second house we sold with him and we would never consider any other realtor! He has handled every obstacle with incredible skill.

    We enjoyed working with Tod and look forward to doing so again soon. As a house flipper, I need a reliable and economical way to market the properties once they are ready to go. I have another one which will be ready soon, and I will be calling Tod again.

    Tod absolutely went above and beyond what he stated that he would for a limited service listing. It felt like I got full service treatment for a huge discount! Not only that but kept the listing longer than agreed and was always there to answer a question when needed. I highly recommend this listing service over any other!

    It was a pleasure working with Tod. Tod brings a real-estate agent's marketing model into the 21st century. Why would anyone pay an extra 3% for a selling agent when in today's world we have all of today's technological advances? Tod provided me with the same realtor expertise and everything I needed from a realtor as those who charge those high fees. Tod did a great job in providing with guidance on selling my home and insuring the deal got done fast. And Tod is not like many of these realtors who insist on setting a low market value in order to sell your home quickly. I got what I wanted for home and was not going to be bullied to offer a price below market value just to sell the home quickly- which is a marketing scheme common to some realtors. I highly recommend Tod for your next real-estate transaction. Thank you Tod for a job well done, and for the several thousands of dollars I get to keep.

He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the market and the process. Tod will give you honest straight forward advise and answers to your questions. He is an excellent negotiator and handles any problems with utmost professionalism. I've bought and sold a few homes over the years, and worked with a number of real estate professionals. You definitely want someone who will keep your best interests in the forefront, without a doubt Tod is your guy.

Tod has extended experience and knowledge. His weekly online market reports are very informative, allowing me to make decisions about the direction of the negotiations. I will definitely work with Tod in the future again.

    Todd was the perfect agent for us, as I had my real estate license formerly, and he allowed me to be more "hands on" but still was very on top of all activity. He plays by the rules and I like that! Todd is very personable, and easy to work with. I enjoyed his calm demeanor. He also takes great pictures! And we all know good pictures help sell a house. We sold our house to the first people that looked at it for the price we wanted, so we are happy clients. We no longer live in TX, but if I did, I would certainly utilize Todd and his services again.

    Tod offers a new paradigm for buying and selling real estate. It will save you a significant amount of time and money with the same services. His automated process allows you to manage your listing online and will be listed in all the MLS and traditional real estate websites. We have bought and sold many homes and have always used a traditional realtor with a 5%-6% fee and felt frustrated because it is rare that the listing agent will show your house or bring you a buyer. Tod took great pictures of our home and offered excellent advice during the listing, contracting and closing process. We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. If you are having reservations about using a flat fee service, we can assure you the process feels exactly the same as using a traditional realtor without the huge commission and with the same success. Our listing generated significant interest and the house had a contract on it within 2 weeks.

  • I strongly recommend that anyone selling a home talk to Tod Franklin before listing with another agent. I did a lot of research and interviewed many realtors, and I am confident that I made the right decision. Tod’s photos and listing details were excellent. He sells 10 times more homes each year than the other realtors I talked to, and this experience means he can offer great advice. Many of the realtors I interviewed bragged about how many of their listings had multiple offers on the first day. This made me suspect that they priced the house too low in order to make a quick commission. I decided to price my home a bit high and wait for a good buyer. I had more than a hundred showings in a few months, and sold for a very good price. Tod never pressured me to accept a low offer. I saved several thousand dollars in commissions. Tod responded immediately every time I had a question. I recommend this company for anyone selling a house in the DFW area.

    DFWCityhomes was absolutely great to work with! My frustration with other realtors in the past has been with them wanting to price the property aggressively. Tod was not like that. He went through the comparables with me and discussed what would be a reasonable range, and then let me make a decision with no pressure to go lower than I wanted. He was also very responsive and knowledgeable. Because of some issues that came up with some repairs that had to be done before closing, I had to contact Tod a lot. He was always very responsive and gave insightful advice. The pictures and property description were very well done as well. I'd highly recommend DFWCityhomes.

I looked and researched several companies online trying to decide which company to list with. I am so thankful that I found Tod and DFWCityhomes!. Start to finish it was a great experience. Tod was patient, he responded promptly and professionally. He was great with negotiations with the other realtor. It was because of him that everything went so smoothly. He has a very informative interactive website. The pictures he took of our home were very professional. Everything was top quality. I consider myself a picky consumer and I have no complaints at all. I would recommend him to families and friends.

I will never use a real estate agent again and have recommended Tod & DFW City Homes to a number of friends.

From providing an exhaustive market analysis, to taking gorgeous photos showcasing the home, and then helping us to negotiate through multiple offers the first week our home was on the market Tod did a great job! From beginning to our close, he was responsive and professional. We never once felt like we were receiving cut rate service.

    Tod and DFWCityHomes are fantastic! We stumbled upon them with a simple internet search and didn't know what to expect but we left being completely blown away by the service/expertise that Tod offered. We have used two other realtors in the past 7 years for other home purchases and were left unimpressed by their assistance. This was not the case with Tod. Tod was knowledgeable in all areas of the real estate process, took really great photos and helped us sell our house in 2 days for more than we were asking. However, his assistance didn't stop there, he made sure everything stayed on schedule and was extremely responsive to all communications from both sides of the transaction. In assisting us with our purchase he was very open to providing his opinion when requested but also allowed us time and space to find the perfect home for us. He never made us feel rushed. The most amazing part of all this is that he offers this service while saving you money at the same time. I just can't imagine there being an agency who can offer you all that Tod and DFWCityhomes does.

    Together we found and purchased the perfect home for us. Tod is an expert but what made the difference was his patience, understanding, knowledge, availability and excellent ease of conversation and information exchange. He was very mindful of our time and he's never been late while spending all the time we needed (and we needed a lot). Unlike other agents Tod will never push you on making a decision. Quite the opposite: he will spend time with you analyzing together whether a particular property is fit for your requirements and offer advice, if you need it. He was there for us and with us all the way to the closing day. We are very grateful for his service. Thank you, Tod!

    Tod's attention to detail is exceptional. DFWCityhomes provides full service real estate services at a fraction of the cost. At first, I was skeptical the same level of service would be provided at a flat fee. However, I was pleasantly surprised. By leveraging technology to provide a higher level of service and simply working harder for the customer's interests, DFWCityhomes provides an experience that rivals or exceeds full (6%) commission real estate sales. Although I was extremely impressed with the business model overall, I was most impressed with Tod's professional photographs of my home. I believe his photographs directly contributed to the quick sell (contract in less than three weeks with multiple offers) of my home. In the past, I've worked with full commission agencies who hired "professional" photographers and ultimately ended up using my own photographs because their photographs were not very good. Tod's photographs are a game-changer.

    We used Tod to list our home using the flat fee model. At first I was a little skeptical of what level of service I would actually receive for a flat fee amount of $495 at listing and $495 at closing. Well we were beyond impressed with the quality and level of service we received. Tod did everything that any other agent would have if we would have hired them. He did his research to help us understand what homes were going for so we could make an educated decision with our listing strategy. He took amazing photos of our home and got the home listed quickly and on all of the major sites buyers look. He guided and educated us as the offers started rolling in and was there for us every step of the way. His experience and expertise was so helpful as we sorted through all of the offers and began the negotiation process. He did a great job and we are so appreciative of all of his efforts in getting our home sold for the best possible price! Even after we closed Tod was still willing to deliver great service to us. We had artwork that was painted on the wall in our daughter's nursery that we couldn't take with us when we left. After closing, Tod went over and took photos of the painting using his fancy camera so we could always have a copy of it to hang in our daughter's room!

At the beginning, he walked us through what to expect during each stage of the process. He was always responsive to email/phone calls when we needed some clarification, even on weekends, and after hours. He kept us on track with what we needed to do. He couldn't have made selling our home any easier. Also, he did an amazing job taking expert grade photos of our house which i'm sure drew in more prospective buyers, and led to our house being under contract in just a couple of weeks.

    As an investor your Real Estate Agent is one of your most important partners. From our first project, Tod has been just that and more. He is a trusted resource and partner who helps throughout the acquisition and sales process. Tod knows the market and how the different pockets throughout DFW are trending. He understands the investor model and advises his clients professionally and understands that it has to be a win win for all involved in the sales process always keeping the buyer in mind. Tod has gone on to sell all of my projects since our first over 2 years ago and I look forward to working on our next project. I recommend him to any investor or homeowner looking for an agent.

    We listed and sold our last house with Tod, so it was an easy decision to use him to market our town home. We listed on a Friday night and had 4 offers by Sunday. We went with the offer that was more than asking price. There is little question that Tod's photography and marketing savvy bought potential buyers to view the property. I would recommend DFW Cityhomes to anyone selling their home.

    Tod was great from the beginning. He took my wife and I through the whole process step by step. Then Tod came to take the photos of the home which were fantastic. The quality was to par with the best I have seen on the web. Lastly, once the home got on the market we had wide exposure, and sold the home quickly, and for what we needed. If we had a standard realtor, and the fees to go with we would have paid extra money for the same if not lower quality of service. I would recommend Tod to anyone in the Dallas area looking to sell their home. Tod you were awesome, thanks for everything.

  • My wife and I highly recommend Tod Franklin and DFWCityhomes. The process is simply, fast and easy to understand. A couple of hours with Tod and the house was on the market. 2 days later and 8 offers the house was sold over asking price. In addition, we saved over $18,000 in realtor fees!! Give it a try - a more modern and efficient approach to selling your home.

  • Tod Franklin with DFW City Homes helped me sale my home and it was an awesome experience. His knowledge and expertise helped us get the best price for our home and made the process very easy.

  • Hello! My name is Stacy and I have worked with Tod Franklin and DFWCityHomes to both sell and purchase a home. Three years ago, Tod was patient and intentional with me through the emotional process of selling my first home. He also took stunning show photos of my house, allowing us to put our best foot forward with potential buyers. Tod was able to share his knowledge of the industry, market, and transactions in a way that was easy for me to understand. When I got ready to buy a home this year, he was my first phone call! He has once again demonstrated patience and intentionality by listening to my specific desires for a home and answering the many questions I had along the way. Even in today's unprecedented market, we found my dream home! Tod's professionalism, competency, and authenticity are much appreciated when making such a major life and financial decision. I will no doubt call him again; and if you are looking to buy or sell, you should too!

  • If you are interested in selling your home look no further, the reviews don't lie! Tod Franklin will help you sell your home, and save you money. He takes time to answer all questions, and explains everything in detail, even if you are not directly working with him. My only regret is I wish I discovered his services earlier. I will continue to work with him in the future.
