Real Words from the Wise….

We are investors and Tod has now helped us sell 5 houses. They have sold in 1 – 3 weeks. He has the process down — it is efficient and effective. Frankly no need to pay 6% anymore. Give Tod a call. He makes it easy!
Review from Google Places.
This is a great service that fit my needs. Tod was very responsive and willing to discuss any concerns that I had. The pictures and exposure to my listing were great. Tod handled the negotiations when needed along with giving me advice on how to counter the offers that came my way.
Tod was thorough, professional, and helped us accomplish our goal of selling our house in a very tough market. He was a tremendous resource in helping us price our home and was instrumental in helping us maximize our sales price when we were lucky enough to generate multiple offers. I highly recommend DFWCityhomes.COM!
We listed our condo for sale using the Full Listing Service package provided by DFWCityhomes. Realtor, Tod Franklin, was excellent to work with. He expertly came out, took multiple pictures, created an awesome ad/flier, and efficiently listed our condo on a variety of sites for us. Tod was easily accessible to answer questions or explain details throughout the process. Ultimately we ended up leasing our condo, but in the future, when we’re ready to buy or sell property in the Dallas area, we will call Tod Franklin at DFWCityhomes.
If you are a savvy homeowner or investor that likes to save money on real estate transactions, then this is the only way to go. For a very reasonable flat fee, Tod Franklin listed my house on the MLS complete with professional photos, a yard sign, lockbox and marketing material copy. In short, everything I needed to sell my home. I sold the home in 55 days during a buyers market and saved 3% by not paying the traditional listing agent commission. I happily paid the selling agent’s commission that brought my eventual buyer to me. Tod was always available to answer questions and send me leads via email. Would I do it again? In a heartbeat.

It was pleasure working with Tod and really appreciate his hard work and also helped us to save on the commission without scarificing the service. Will definitely recommend!!
Good luck Tod:)
Had a big problem to move a house over 400 miles away with issues and estate ones too. Tod Franklin helped us get this done in a very professional manner. Within 6 months the market spoke and the house IS SOLD !!!!!!!!!!!!!! DFWCityhomes has identified the holes and flaws in the traditional residential brokerage model and is having a glorious time exploiting them. Wish he was in my area now in Branson Mo. As a businessman and investor my opinion is that Tod is top notch. Highest regards and would use his service again.

Over the years I have bought and sold many homes in support of my career moves. DFWCityhomes has the most creative and flexible programs we have encountered. The financial structure is very positive, especially in today’s real estate market. We highly recommend Tod and his team to those who want professional direction and support.

We knew we were not making any profit from the sale of our house. We priced it to sell fast. So we looked for flat rate listing services, and we were very fortunate to find Tod Franklin from DFWCityhomes to list our house and we sold our house in less than 3 months. Tod is very professional,knowledgeable,responds very quick to your calls and concerns, infact, he picks up your calls very first time you call him. He walks you through the process very clearly and patiently. We are very extremely happy with his services. For the flat rate we paid him, his services exceeds more than an full service rate. My husband and I think, Tod deserves more money that the flat rate, because his is a full service, not the discounted service. Why pay more for other realtor for the full services, when you can get Tod’s excellent service for a flat fee. Tod is a great realtor, we would highly recommend him for our friends and families. If we were to sell or buy any other property in near future, we will definitely use Tod’s services. If you want to save money and sell your home fast, then please use Tod Franklin from DFWCityhomes.

“Todd sold two rental investment homes and the experience was great. Todd gave excellent service and made the whole process pleseant. I will use DFWCityhomes for all my investment and Personal home sales. FYI, My neighbor used Todd and got a above ask price offer on the first day their homes was listed !!!!”

Tod was great! The package that he provided was a value compared to the traditional listing. He is very knowledgeable about the industry both purchase and leasing. He is also has a good eye for photography and took great pictures of our house!! After two successful transactions I would have no problem referring him to any friend or family member.

Great job explaining documents and process. Got the job done and saved us a lot of money!

Great experience and quick sale! By using this service, we were able to sell our home that wasn’t selling when using the traditional real estate agent listing services. Definitely recommend!

Tod is outstanding to work with! He helped us lease our old house and purchase our current one. The service he provides is a tremendous value for the price. He provided all the services promised, but also took plenty of extra time to help us out. As first time landlords, we were very green about how to go about things. He spent time giving us advice on how to structure our lease and even wrote it for us. As our buyer’s agent, Tod worked hard to find us the right house. We toured 25 or 30 houses over several days. His service was better than with the traditional agent we had used in the past. I’ve already recommended Tod to several friends.

“We dropped the selling price $76,000 over a four month period. Tod was always available and returned my emails promptly. When the buyer was asking for repairs that I didn’t think were reasonable, Tod stepped in and helped. Thank you Tod.”

Our experience in selling our home with Tod Franklin was great; in fact, it completely exceeded our expectations! My husband and I have been thoroughly pleased with his service and with DFW City Homes. Throughout our selling experience, Tod was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, and he always had our best interests in mind. He was also very patient and thorough in his explanation of processes, and he ensured that we fully understood any information before signing (or making major decisions). Further, Tod was incredibly responsive and helpful whenever we had questions or needed additional clarification. We have him to thank for our house selling so quickly and for our sale going so smoothly. We would highly recommend Tod to those looking to sell their homes!

We were extremely pleased with Tod. He did a great job with the pictures, pricing our house competitively and helping with our contract negotiations.

“Nice work and Tod was great! Sold in a short time period. Would highly recommend. Saved 1/2 the $’s of realtor charge … $12,000 NICE thank you.”

“Tod is a super great guy, very knowlegeable, always available to answer your questions, and has a very calming aura around him during a high stress situation like showing/selling your home. He was very helpful during contract negotiations and kept us informed at all times. I loved the ShowingTime appointment system and it was very easy to use and allows you to schedule showings directly with the Buyer’s agents. We really made a great decision to have Tod handle our home sale and saved a sizable sum of money in realtor fees that are going toward some needed remodeling in our new home. Thanks Tod!”

“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!”

“Great experience!! Tod is fantastic and have already started referring him to my fiends. Extremely happy with the process and transaction.”

“Tod was Great! very responsive to questions and helpful through the entire process. Highly recommend.”

Tod, provides first class service without the large commission. Professional pictures, MLS listing, all the major websites, and all the necessary documents provided electronically to sell your house. Saving you thousands in commissions, highly recommend!!!!

“I have now worked with Tod for about 4 years and always have a great result. His service and communication are excellent. I even recommended him to my sister when she had to sell. Great experience working with Tod and DFWCityhomes. As an active real estate investor, I have worked with many agents both on the buy and sell side. Tod absolutely exceeded expectations from start to finish. I will certainly use his service on my next transaction and whole heartedly recommend him to anyone looking for Great service and a reasonable price. Thanks for all your hard work and expertise!!”

Tod was simply fantastic to work with – highly recommend Tod for anyone. You will like working with him. Thank you so much Tod – the advice you gave, suggestions, attention to details and also just the care you showed – you must be a blessed man with a kind heart – it shows in the way you treat people and your professionalism. Grateful ! – thank you for all the help and assistance. Brad and Karen.

I found Tod while looking for flat rate realtor to list my home. I was fortunate that I found such a professional on my first contact. Tod knows his stuff and takes fantastic photos that really help to sell the home. I have now used Tod’s expertise in selling four homes and will call him in the future any time that I need a realtor.
Review from Google Places.

I highly recommend Tod to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Tod sold a home for me earlier this year, and did an excellent job. 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 is very professional and prompt with responses. I enjoyed working with him on the sell of my house. Don’t believe others that will tell you that you can not get great service from a flat fee broker!
Review from Google Places.

Working with DFWCityhomes was simple and straightforward. Tod was quick to communicate with us so we were never left with questions. We worked together on a sales strategy which ended in our home selling over asking. I have already recommended him to friends and family. I highly suggest you call him and consider his services.

Tod Franklin has been a great help in my real estate transaction & I would definitely refer him to all & look forward to work with him again in future.
Review from Google Places.

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.
Review from Google Places.

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. 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.

I just sold my home and Tod Franklin represented us. He did an excellent job with the pics and videos for the showing. We had some unaccounted delays and I was ready to move on. But Tod’s assurance and negotiations helped us close the deal. He is very dedicated, patient and a straight shooter. He will recommend suggestions and will be active, advising the entire time during course of the transaction. I will definitely recommend him and use his services again. Thank you Tod.

Tod made the selling experience seamless. Everything went smoothly and he kept me informed throughout the process. Highly recommended.

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.

Tod did great! He helped get a contract on our house in about 2 days and saved us over $30,000 in expenses. Highly recommend.

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.

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!

I strongly recommend Tod Franklin and DFWCityhomes’ real estate services. Tod is always available to provide advice, to answer questions and to support his customers all the way to a successful closing. His integrity is without reproach. The quality of the service provided is outstanding, including beautiful pictures and attractive description of the house. I will re-use Tod’s service for my next opportunity.

We have now used Tod Franklin for four transactions. We have recommended him to three other families that have used him as well. That alone speaks volumes on the type of man he is. He is a very knowledgeable and dependable gentleman. A true class act!
Review from Google Places.

This is truly the way the future. This process has great value and Todd is extremely responsive and professional, he knows his business inside and out. If you are thinking about selling your home and you don’t consider Todd as your realtor you are making an expensive mistake.

Tod and his team at DFW City Homes exceeded our expectations! Tod was knowledgeable and willing to answer any and all of our questions. He was both timely and efficient. We highly recommend Tod and DFW City Homes.

Tod is amazing! He’s very knowledgeable about the market and provided great advice. He was very responsive and answered all my questions concerning the sell of my home. I would definitely recommend him and DFW CITY homes.

Tod was great! From gorgeous pictures of our home to negotiation with buyer agents to advice throughout to closing, he was professional, efficient, and his price is more than fair. Really amazing! We closed on time and he definitely went above and beyond. Would highly recommend him to my dearest friends, and everyone!

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 was an exceptional agent! I am recently widowed and needed to sell a home in the Fort Worth area while living in Baton Rouge.
Tod was kind, caring, and professional every step of the way. I highly recommend listing your home with him. You won’t regret it!

“I recently used Tod Franklin at DFWCityhomes for the sale of a property that I inherited and I could not be more thrilled about his representation of the home. 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.”

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.

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.

We listed our house with Tod from DFWCityHomes. The process was simple and saved us to a lot of money. Tod was easy to work with and very knowledgable. He communicated regularly with us throughout the process. He did a good job of guiding us in pricing our house accordingly for the neighborhood and market.

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.

Tod was great in helping us navigate the complications we experienced along the way, we had 3 different contracts on the condo and for one reason or another they fell through (not his fault on any of them). But finally the 4th one stuck! We appreciated all the effort he put in for us.
Review from Google Places.

Tod Franklin was a pleasure to work with! After unsuccessfully listing our house with a traditional service, Tod was able to get it under contract and sold in a little over a month. He went above and beyond in his service to us- always explaining things and offering valuable insight. We couldn’t be happier with the service offered to us by Tod. We will definitely use Tod Franklin at DFWCityhomes again.

Thank you Tod Franklin for the excellent service! We knew you were the right person to List our Home. You saved us so much money on fees, while still providing all the professional expertise and advice we needed through the successful transaction, way above asking. You are a life saver!

We listed our condo with Tod at DFWCityhomes using his Flat Fee MLS listing service. We are so happy we did. Tod gave us excellent service and we never felt like we were not important. He helped us through several negotiations and sold our Condo for a lovely profit. Thank you Tod and Bell for your support. I recommend Tod Franklin to my friends. Thank you again.

“Please read this if you are looking to buy or sale a home / property. We have worked with Tod Franklin (DFWCityhomes.com) on three separate properties over the past few years. Tod has always been very professional, friendly, and our best interest is his first priority. We are happy to be able refer Todd as the realtor of choice knowing he will do as much for every client as he can. We are sure the DFWCityhomes (Tod Franklin) flat rate fees to sale a property along with his rebate when purchasing a new build home cannot be beat. Using DFWcityhomes will definitely save you money. We appreciate everything Todd has done for us.”

Tod is excellent, I especially appreciate his taking the effort to work the deal in our family’s interests, not just pushing to close the deal.

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 was great to work with. Very professional and had great advice throughout the selling process. Will definitely use him again if needing to sell another home.

We were moving on military orders and hadn’t been in our house very long, so having a listing realtor was a little too pricey for us. I searched Google for alternatives to listing, and came across DFWCityHomes. BEST DECISION EVER! Tod came to our house, walked us through the process, kept constant communication, took pictures, listed our home, and BAM! we were under contract within 2 days. Highly recommend anyone consider this option when selling their home!
Review from Google Places.

I highly recommend Tod and DFWCityhomes to help you sell your house. You save thousands of dollars in seller realtor fees while he takes care of everything.

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.
Review from Google Places.

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!
Review from Google Places.

I was looking to sell a flip house and not sure of an appropriate price. Tod not only help me price the house but but made suggestions on ideas that enabled me to obtain a higher price than I expected. He was able to market and sell the house in just a few weeks. I will use them again on all my projects.

“This is my 3rd time to close on a sale with Tod. The quality of his pictures and knowledge of what is happening at that moment in real estate is in valuable. He will be patient through your search for a new home as well.”

Very knowledgeable about the D/FW real estate market. Very honest and gives ample feedback on property and selling process. Always ready to take a question or concern that may come up. Highly recommend working with Tod at DFWCityhomes if you are buying or selling properties.
Review from Google Places.

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.
Review from Google Places.

“Tod was very meticulous with his services every step of the way from listing to sale of our property in Prosper, TX. We were really impressed with his tech-savvy “dashboard style” process status online. Information, communication, and execution are very essential in the process. We had one offer within 6 hours of listing and two within 24 hours of listing! Key characteristics of Tod are his friendly personality, enthusiasm, energy, drive, and a good business acumen. These characteristics often distinguish the great agents from good ones!”

Love working with Tod, very professional- for someone like me in the mortgage business for over 30 years- I have seen my fair share of Realtor’s- Tod is one of the best I have worked with in the last decade- also he has a great program- full service without the full service price!
I highly recommend him.Ayman Kanso

“Todd has done a great job selling our houses. He runs a smooth team that communicates well and works efficiently!”

“Tod and his team at DFWCityhomes were great to work with and they process of buying and selling our home easy!”

“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.”

I was dreading the experience of selling my Plano, Texas condo but Tod minimized the stress. When I let him know I was ready to put my condo on the market, he was out taking pictures the next day. The pictures he took of my condo were very professional. When I had questions, Tod was willing and able to answer them. I’m a planner so I did a lot of \”what ifs\” and he didn’t lose patience with me. I’ve heard it said that selling a home is one of the most difficult experiences in life and Tod certainly made the experience easier. In fact, we shared some laughs. You also can’t beat his prices. Thank you again, Tod!

“It was great working with Tod. He got my home sold within 1 week during the coronavirus pandemic time. His pricing is the best and his professionalism and experience is key to ensuring deals get closed! Will definitely be using DFW City Homes again!”

“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.”
This is the 3rd listing in which we used DFWCityhomes and we absolutely love them. Tod provides all the high-end services you would expect from a full-service broker with none of the up-charge. His pictures, signs & listings are professional, he connects you with necessary Showing services, etc & his knowledge of the market & comparables in DFW is remarkable. We are satisfied customers….and you will be too!!

Selling our home with DFW City Homes was the best home selling experience I’ve had. Tod partnered with us as if this were his home too. He gave us suggestions from the beginning that made a big difference in the end and, helped us with some very difficult decisions along the way.
Tod was amazing! We couldn’t have been happier with the process. Tod’s professionalism, wisdom, experience were invaluable tools for us – and the amount of work he did for such a reasonable price is just unheard of in todays real estate market. He was a refreshing and affordable alternative to the traditional realtor. If you want to waste money on a realtor who will do less…then look elsewhere…but if you want a top notch realtor who is undoubtedly the best bang for your buck…Tod is your man!
Tod was the best Realtor we’ve ever worked with and therefor enabled us to have the best ‘home-selling’ experience ever. He was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, straight forward and honest and never pushed us in a direction we were not comfortable with. Tod spent hours taking incredible photos that presented our property in the best possible way and in turn resulted in a multitude of showings and multiple offers. During the more tense moments of negotiation Tod was constantly level headed, always negotiating to our benefit and kept communication as smooth and peaceful as possible. The council we received assisted us in making good decisions that greatly benefited our family and we will not hesitate to use his services again when we are able to or to recommend others to do the same.

Tod Franklin was an excellent landlord. Had I not moved out of the area, I would rent from him again. He was quick with repairs and fair with pricing.

Thanks Tod for all your help on our recent real estate transactions. Tod helped us sell a property, rent a property, and purchase a new home. We got 10x the service and expertise from Tod than we had from other full commission realtors in the past. Tod will guide you through the process at whatever pace you are comfortable with. We will continue to use Tod for all of our real estate transactions going forward.
The value listing truly was a great value for me. Tod is prompt, easy to reach via phone or email, and professional. He offered some creative ideas to motivate a slow-moving buyer/buyer’s agent which showed cunning and knowledge that I didn’t expect. His advice in all multiple instances was right-on and clearly communicated. I recommend his services to anyone. And I recommend the value listing service for anyone who would like to be a little more involved in the selling process.
We have sold several homes with different agents over the years but Tod Franklin is by far the best agent we have ever hired. He guided us every step of the way through the sale of our home, which is a very difficult process for a seller. He arrived at our house with over 20 comparable homes within a one mile radius to help us arrive at the right price. He also brought a professional photographers camera and took dozens of pictures of our house, inside and out, to be used on the web. In 24 hours our house was on so many websites it was very easy for prospective buyers to find our home. We had 27 showings in that week with multiple offers but in the end the first couple that looked at the house gave us a full price offer on the second day of the sale. Also, Tod’s use of technology really makes the process easy, from the centralized showing service to the electronic signing of documents he makes it a smooth and easy process. One of the scariest things for a seller to go through is the closing but Tod kept us informed of what to expect and do right up until the closing. If you are looking for a top notch agent, Tod Franklin is your answer.

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!
I would highly recommend Tod! He did a fantastic job of explaining all the contracts and procedures to both us (the sellers) and to the tenants we had occupying the property. Tod took great pictures which attracted numerous buyers. We had our first offer in a couple days! Tod then helped us tremendously through the negotiation process. We ended up making about $10,000 more than we originally anticipated. Tod followed through till the end with all the hiccups along the way. Thanks Tod for a job well done – we will definitely call you the next time we are ready to buy or sell another property!
It was pleasure having Tod Franklin as my agent. His professional advice made the whole process smooth. His strategy enabled me to sell my house in less than two days. His pictures made my house presented in the best possible light. I am a happy lady.

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!
It was a great experience to work with Tod Franklin at DFWCityhomes to sell our horse property. We had worked with a ‘normal’ real estate agency for 6 months We only had 4 showings and little interest in our property. Every month we got the standard line of ‘lower the price 10%. We enlisted Tod’s Services and had many showings and a lot of interest at our original asking price. Negotitated a contract at 5% below our listing price and old our home in 5 months.

“Tod at DFW CityHomes was the most effective, organized, professional, competent Realtor I have used of the 5 homes that I have sold. I absolutely recommend Tod and DFW CityHomes. 5 stars!”
Tod sold my home in a horrible market. I got the Value listing, but I never felt that Tod wasn’t personally invested in helping me sell.
Tod is very knowledgeable and professional. My wife and I interviewed over 6 agents before chosing DFWCityhomes. Tod understood the challenges we were facing, due to foreclosures in the neighborhood and the current real estate market. We followed Tod’s advice and sold our home in less then 90 days – current DOM in our area was minimum 180!!! Tod’s help to us was invaluable. If you are looking for a knowledgable, professional, get the job done agent then Tod is your guy. He will walk with you every step of the way. Tod, was there to answer any questions and the process was very easy. I have seen offers like this, but the personal service that Tod provides is exceptional.
Although there are many realtors out there offering flat fee listings I doubt there are any who could (or would) offer the level of service that Tod did during our extremely challenging transaction. Whether it was late night calls/emails or dealing with an incredibly difficult and unreasonable buyers agent I always felt like I got a level of service equal to a full service listing. In fact, having listed twice before with full service agents, I might even say Tod’s service was better than theirs. Thank you Tod, not sure we could have made it through closing without you.
Tod provided our family an invaluable service in helping to sell our home. He was professional, polite and efficient. The pictures of our home that went on the Internet were outstanding. Tod provided us great information and was an advocate for us during the actual selling of our home. Our house started showing immediately and sold in just under two months. Here is the kicker to all of this- we saved thousands of dollars by using Tod’s company instead of a traditional real estate agent! Thanks Tod for everything!
In this real estate market, my husband and I were struggling with the profit that we would not make on the sale of our home after paying real estate agent fees. We decided to list our home with Tod at DFWCityhomes after only a Google search for MLS listing services. I am so glad that we did! We had a contract on our home in 9 days to another family who was working without a realtor, saving us nearly $20,000. Tod was quick to get our home on the market, very knowledgeable and always accessible for questions and consultation. I have recommended him to several friends. I could not be more happy with the result.
We are very satisfied with DFWCityhomes. Tod’s great; very professional and quick to respond to any concerns we have.
Tom and I thank the Lord for his convictions, guidance and goodness to us during this time of marketing our home, selling it and purchasing a new one! He never ceases to amaze us… in both prosperous times and difficult trials. We thank him for your participation during this time and we are grateful to you as well. You really helped us to make “uncharted waters” for us a much smoother sailing. You have been a blessing and we turly appreciate you. Most gratefully and sincerely in Christ
Tod is very knowledgeble about the process of selling your home, he knows the North Texas Market, and he knows the techniques that buyers realtors use. He always has the sellers best interest in mind. The bottom line you can trust Tod to guide you through the sale of your home.
Now that our house is officially sold, let me say a heartfelt thank you for your service. We had the house on the market for two plus months with a full service broker and had nothing but problems. They wrote lousy copy, took terrible pics and worst of all, had no marketing plan. When we moved to your service, using our pics, copy and marketing, the house sold in a few days and with multiple offers. We would gladly refer ANYONE to your service.

“Tod went the extra mile throughout the whole process. Tod stayed in contact, when I called he answered or called back in a reasonable time. There were complications with buyers negotiation but Tod worked thru them. A+ all the way.
If I sell again, I will definitely use DFWCityhomes.”
My wife and I moved to Texas a year ago. We knew we wanted to purchase a home, but were very unfamiliar with the best areas to move into. We wanted not only a great deal, but a great deal in a great area. Tod was very patient and helpful during the process of finding the perfect home. He had great market knowledge that really helped us feel confident in the purchase of our next home. In the end we found the perfect house at the perfect price. Tod went above and beyond in the final stages of our home purchase to make sure we were well taken care of during the final negotiations. We are looking forward to the purchase of our next home and taking advantage of Tod’s listing services in the future.

“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.”

“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.”
Tod created an eye-catching MLS listing and brochure. Additionally, he provided useful information about trends in the market. Thanks
We loved the price and the service! For under $500, we had our house put on MLS and had many qualified renters come by to look at it. Within a couple of months we had a very qualified renter who signed a 14 month lease. This was after we actually turned one down! I would definitely use Tod’s services again…when we try to sell our house in a year or so. I would highly recommend Tod!

“Tod was a professional from beginning to end. I’ll definitely use him on any future real estate deals in the future and strongly recommend him.”

Tod has been very professional on all 5 of our transactions. One purchase and 4 sales. Tod is efficient and is a good negotiator. On several deals Tod was able to keep the closing alive and get it done. I highly suggest you use Tod’s services. He is a PRO I have recommended Tod to several friends and other investors. Thank you.

Tod was very patient helping us sell our home after it fell out of contract many times and had over 50 showings. The pictures he took were very impressive and his communication with me was great during the whole process. Best bang for the buck.

Tod, is punctual, professional and hard working. His work in selling our house, is equal to or better than the work done by a traditional broker, who charges 3% to list a house.

“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 definition of professionalism and experience. His depth of knowledge and level of service is unmatched in my opinion. We had need to draw on these qualities during the sale of my mom’s home. He handled the situation with an extreme level of knowledge and authority. I highly recommend Tod G. Franklin if you are considering selling your property.
We really appreciate you getting this listed for us so soon! I am very happy to be working with a “real” person and not just a big flat fee business. Thanks!
As an owner/investor I have bought, sold and leased properties for over 20 years. The quality service that Tod provides at a fraction of the full service cost increases my bottom line and removes the frustration of doing it myself. He has become a trusted partner in my real estate transactions. I highly recommend Tod to anyone needing a real estate professional.
We were extremely impressed with Tod’s professionalism and attention to detail. He always responded quickly to our requests and was a joy to work with. We will ALWAYS use him in the future for buying and selling real estate and already refer to him whenever we have the chance!
Tod was very professional, very knowlegable and always returned my calls in a timely fasion. I would highly recommend him for all your real estate needs.
I would definitely recommend DFWCityhomes to anyone wanting to sell their home. Its a great value and they have great customer service. DFWCityhomes saved me thousands of dollars and made listing my home an easy process.

I loved working with Tod Franklin, he visited with us, explained his services, provided us the market survey and when we were ready he took care of all the details and had us on the market exactly as promised. We had heavy and steady traffic from the opening weekend and were able to make a great deal just as we’d hoped to do. His guidance and attention to detail were exactly what we needed as 1st time sellers. Thank you.

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.

Tod did a great job of helping us sell our home. I would use him again.

“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.”
The flat listing service was extremely beneficial in the sale of our property. While we only had one real estate showing, the extra exposure on the various websites on the internet is what brought our buyer to us. We closed without paying any agent fees other than the flat fee to DFWCityhomes Service.

“Wow!! What a great experience with Tod (DFWCityHomes)! He was very detailed and kept the ball rolling quickly to close on the house. Tod always gave me great advice, very responsive and was a great listener as well! I HIGHLY recommend him as there is no reason to pay for an overpriced broker. He saved me major $$ and received the benefit of a full coverage broker! Thank you Tod!!!!!”

Third time my family has used Tod Franklin to sell houses in the DFW area. Excellent service! We will use again when the need arises.

My experience using DFWCityhomes to list our home in Lewisville was way above my expectations. Tod went above and beyond answering all my questions, spending time with me on the phone, and returning all my e-mail’s and voice mails in a timely matter. I have used a traditional realtor in the past to sell my home and after using DFWCityhomes listing service, I will never go back listing with a 3% Realtor. The cost savings is incredible; our home was listed on the MLS & looked like any other home on the market. I am always leery of recommending services/people to friends & family unless I am 100% confident they will get superb service. I have already recommended DFWCityhomes to a close friend and plan to keep recommending them to all my friends and family!
Our house had been on the market for over a year and listed with two different brokers. After listing with Todd, we had a buyer in less than two weeks. He handled all the negotiations like the professional he is and the closing ran very smoothly. He also helped us look for a house when we thought we were going to be relocating within the Metroplex and was great to work with. We have already recommended Todd to friends and will continue to do so. We will definitely use him again if we move back to Texas.

“Assisted us From start to Finish. Our listing was well photographed and listing available to the DFW area and more . TOD is the man to negotiate and knowledgeable in his field . Showing service was very nice and answer promptly. In our homes that we have sold as we moved . We always had some issue with our realtor for not protecting us . Or not showing us availability, With TOD using a broker we felt always having our back and any questions that surfaces. Was able to answer our questions.”

“Tod is amazing! He walked us through everything, took great care of us, took amazing pictures, got our home out there, and sold fast! He is experienced and put things into our contract that saved us lots of money. He was so good, and the process felt so easy with him in our corner. We hired him as a flat fee agent but it felt like full service. He saved us lots of money without compromising quality. We feel so lucky we were referred to him. Highly recommend.”

“Tod was great. He was very knowledgeable, kind, professional and responsive. Pleasure to work with. Would recommend anytime.”
DFWCityhomes and Tod provided excellent service at a very reasonable cost. I have sold two other houses using discounted listing services and DFWCityhomes is by far the best. We can start from the very 1st email I sent to Tod. He responded immediately with a form to fill out regarding information on my house etc. Within 24 hours Tod had comparable analysis with a good idea on what I should be listing my house for. We then set-up an appointment and he came and took photos of our house. The very next day the house was listed. This was a Saturday evening and on Sunday morning I had request from two separate perspective buyers to look at the house. Throughout the listing period Tod keep me informed on perspective buyers etc. We had an offer within 11 days during a very slow market. Additionally, this was in August which is also a slower period. Tod assisted me in helping negotiate a price and gave some valuable advice that assisted me in determining counter offers etc.

Excellent service and an amazing value!!! Tod did a great job and saved us tens of thousands of dollars. Feel confident using him to sell your house.
DFWCityhomes provides exceptional service that goes beyond simply providing a listing service. From beginning to end of the sales process, Tod is always there to answer questions and tweak the listing to get buyers through the door. Last but not least, we saved over $8,000 by using DFWCityhomes! No doubt, I recommend DFWCityhomes to all my family and friends.
The way homes are sold is changing. In this competitive buyer’s market, sellers no longer can afford to pay 6% commissions. Tod’s service is the home seller’s answer. With Tod, we have not sacrificed personal attention in the least bit. He has always been prompt in returning all of our calls and has not hastened to follow up with any of our questions or requests. If you are in the market for saving thousands of dollars and for personal attention, then Tod’s your guy.
I was extremely happy with the services provided by DFWCityhomes when we sold our home. We received virtually all of the services provided by a full real estate service throughout the entire process and saved thousands of dollars in commissions. The entire selling process was very simple, we received all the assistance needed, and had accepted an offer within weeks of listing our home. We compared many different services before going with DFWCityhomes, and none of the others provided anywhere near the services and features for the price. Will absolutely use again next time we sell a home in the DFW area.

I’m excited to announce that after 18 years of providing dedicated service, our clients have collectively saved over $10,000,000 in commissions!
