Shaun is hands down THE BEST realtor in the game. Im sure you’ve heard that before, but i can assure you this is not hyperbole. He truly makes a difference, and it’s pays to have the right person on your side when making one of the biggest financial transactions of your life. After a less-than-ideal experience using a friend to list my home, Shaun came in to save the day. He had it re-listed and sold within a weekend. My other realtor had it listed for months and it unfortunately tarnished our relationship. For the love of god, avoid the friend and go with the pro! Thank you Shaun for everything you do! We’re forever grateful!

So grateful for the fantastic work Shaun put into selling our home! We wanted to be careful about some technical requirements, and he was very sensitive to our unique needs. He gave great honest advice and helped us make great choices from beginning to end. I recommend him to anyone!

We just sold our home in less than 3 days using realtor Amy Johnston with 1% lists and I cannot give enough praise to the savings we were allowed & her wonderful communication & how negotiations were handled. If you are looking to buy or sell I highly recommend considering this real estate company to help save money on your investments!

Shaun was awesome! A seasoned real estate professional with a no nonsense, very practical attitude. He provided excellet gudance for the sale of our house. Excellent pictures and write up of our ( former) property. We had 3 offers within 24 hrs. Despite a somewhat unhinged home inspector ( from buyer), Shaun guided us through the post inspection/repair phase flawlessly. I would highly recommend Shaun/1 Percent Lists Purple Door to any buyer or seller 5 stars all the way!

My husband and I are so fortunate to have worked with Shaun during our first home buying experience. Shaun facilitated the entire process seamlessly and made it exceptionally enjoyable. His profound understanding of all facets of home buying was evident throughout. Not only does he possess expertise in real estate, but his background in construction proved invaluable, especially considering the new build home we were purchasing. Shaun’s meticulous attention to detail led him to identify issues within the house that we would have otherwise overlooked. Even when we couldn't attend the final walk-through in person, Shaun meticulously inspected the property on our behalf, providing thorough video documentation along the way. Shaun has been a local of Louisville for many years which makes him an excellent resource when it comes to the community. I could not recommend Shaun enough – he is truly exceptional and sets the standard for excellence in his field. Thank you Shaun!

Shaun did a fantastic job and we would recommend him in a heartbeat. He was highly knowledgeable about the local market and a pleasure to work with. He is extremely organized and detail oriented. During the process, if we were feeling a little unsure or anxious, Shaun had a way of easing our minds. We never felt alone or under represented because we knew he was fighting for us. Shaun went over and above, he is a fierce negotiator and always had our best interest at heart!

Shaun was referred to them by a friend of mine. Shaun was amazing! We looked at a lot of homes one weekend & they got an accepted contract on their favorite home in LaGrange.He is very knowledgeable & professional. He put this mom's concerns at ease for sure! Would highly recommend him & I know they will too! Can't thank him enough!!

Shaun did an amazing job! Highly recommend him!
If you want to save thousands of dollars in realtor fees, then read this review:From the time I filled out the form online for more info to the closing on my condo, Shaun was on the ball. I was literally amazed at how quickly and accurately he got everything done!After I filled out the form online for more information on how his low cost realty fees worked, he called me within 90 seconds. Seconds, not minutes! On a Sunday!He told me in detail how the lower cost realty fee worked, he answered all my questions. And I will tell you he is still a full service realtor.I scheduled a meeting with him on the next day for him to look at my condo and tell me what I needed to do get maximum sale price. He also told me what he thought I could get for it, and that's what we listed it for. And he was right on target with his estimate.His photographer also came out same day that I told Shaun I wanted to list my condo with him. His photographer came out and took pictures that made my condo look like a million bucks!I will definitely use him again to buy or sell another property. You might find a realtor as great as him, but you won't find one better! I just took all the guess work out of you finding a great realtor - list your property with Shaun Wallace! I couldn't be happier with the whole process. And I saved several thousand dollars in realtor fees!

Shaun and Purple Door were the PERFECT experience with a realtor and company. He was so patient in helping us find our true dream home. Answered all of our questions and walked us through every process. There was never any pressure and he made a stressful experience a truly enjoyable one. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. A truly great guy!

I Sean's number from my sister who has been using him to get a house for herself. My boyfriend and I are first time home buyers and we had no idea what we were in for. Sean was amazing and he was able to lead us gracefully through the process. His history with construction really helped avoid some houses that would have just been too much work. He listened to our wants and our need, and stayed with us as our decisions evolved. We found the perfect property and are extremely happy with the outcome. I'm sure we'll still be calling him occasionally for his expertise. Clint and I are extremely happy with our new home and it turns out he was able to help my sister and her family get their dream house too! Thanks for everything!

He was professional, quick to respond, and a great negotiator! He sold our property in 2 days, getting multiple offers above asking price while saving us so much money in commissions! We have bought and sold many homes over the years and have never been so impressed or had a better experience with a realtor! Highly recommend!!!

If you want first class service, Shaun is the agent to hire. From the first meeting all the way to closing, we got his attention and dedication, making sure the process was a smooth one. He made sure our property sold for the best price even in a difficult market. He handled all the negotiations and had our best interest all the time. I definitely recommend Shaun Wallace and Purple Door for your real estate needs. Would definitely have him as our agent again.

Shaun was absolutely fantastic for our first home buying experience. He came recommended by a friend from work, and we're glad we went with him. He made the process as simple as possible for us and a big highlight was that we did most things over text. He was very quick to respond to our questions at all hours and willing to work with my limited schedule. Shaun was very patient with us, no matter how many houses we looked at or offered on. His knowledge of both real estate and home maintenance was valuable to us; we knew what kind of place we wanted but were not as well versed in what to look for during showings. You won't go wrong choosing Purple Door Realty to either sell your house or help you buy one.

Shaun did an incredible job helping my husband and I sell our first house, and then buy our next one!! Anybody that’s been through this process knows how difficult and stressful it may be and Shaun kept us calm, collected, and in line the entire time! With this being our first time selling, we were hesitant on which realtor to use, and we had so many questions about the process! Shaun without a doubt was the best realtor we could have picked, and he was always just a text or call away!!! We had so many questions and concerns and he always assured us he had it under control and talked us through EVERYTHING!!! We hit some bumps as do all people buying and selling, but Shaun always had the answer and knew how to fix it! Highly highly recommend Shaun at purple door realty!!! If we’re ever in the market to buy or sell again, Shaun is our first call!! Thank you for helping us find our new home, and walking with us every step of the way!!!

So my wife and I were struggling to find a realtor that would fit our best needs and wants when finding a new house and selling our old house. Shaun really changed the game for me with how well he accommodated to us and what we wanted. One of the best things about purple door is if you use them not only to sell your old house but use them for finding your new house the will cut you a check back at closing for using them. I have to say getting that extra money at closing was great, considering I forgot we were supposed to get it! Over all a 10/10 experience. Everyone knows how crazy and up and down buying a home can be and having Shaun with us every step of the way made it so much easier and fast. Use purple door reality for all your buying and selling needs!

Not only did he show us several houses while we were in the process of looking for houses but also answered all our questions along the process. He is professional, friendly, and an excellent communicator; always available via text, phone call, and email. I would recommend Shaun and Purple Door Realty to anyone without any hesitation!

Shaun helped us sell our house at the beginning of the summer. This is the second property he sold for us this year. Shaun is excellent! Shaun was very professional, helped connect me with a photographer who took stunning photos of our home, and worked with me to get the listing just right. He was very responsive to all my questions (there were many), and I knew he was my advocate when talking to other agents/potential buyers. I 100% recommend Shaun and Purple Door Realty to my friends and family, and he'll be my first call if I am looking to buy or sell real estate again.

Shaun met and exceeded all expectations of a selling Realtor. My wife was initially hesitant to go with a realtor that did not charge the full price that was industry standard. However, after some research and discussion we went with Shaun at Purple Door. We were not disappointed. He has a streamlined process which matched what we wanted. More importantly, he was a FULL service realtor and was extremely fast to respond to my concerns, questions, or anything else. In fact, he was more responsive than my buying realtor (we moved out of state). I would 100% without hesitation recommend Shaun and Purple Door Realty to anyone looking to sell or buy their home. Why pay more in fees if you can get better service for less?

I couldn’t have been more pleased with the service that Shaun provided, as he helped me sell my home. He took the time to come to my house, walk the property, sit down and discuss some comps and logistics. He made some suggestions and recommendations. He offered great advice but did not push me on anything. He did everything that he said he was going to do with the next couple days. Shaun was very prompt with responding to questions and detailed with his communication via emails, phone calls and texts. He was very helpful during negotiation with our buyers. I felt like we got full and thorough real estate service for significantly less than what traditional realtors demand for their fees. And bonus, Shaun is very personable and a joy to be around. Very grateful for Shaun’s involvement in my home sale!

1 Percent Lists lets you save thousands of dollars selling your home by eliminating the older marketing strategies which are less effective and implementing cutting edge marketing for real estate and maximizing modern marketing strategies all without losing the benefit of having an ACTIVE REALTOR in your corner.

1 Percent Lists Purple Door vs. a Flat Fee Brokerage

We get it! You do not want to pay full price to get your home on the MLS. We definitely appreciate that. However, nearly all Flat Fee Brokerages offer zero services to their clients. 

You'll have to choose from a-la-carte menus. needs and services that you want that will cost you more money and usually upfront! you will have to decide if you want a lockbox, help negotiating, help understanding paperwork, help navigating offers and inspections, etc. 

Social Media marketing? Forget about it... Proper Social Media marketing is quickly becoming one of the leading ways to buy and sell properties. 

Then on top of it, you'll still pay the buyer's agent 2.5-3%! Instead, get the best of both worlds with 1 Percent Lists Purple Door. Only pay 1% to list your home (plus the 2.5% to the buyer’s agent) and receive full, knowledgeable, and experienced service!

You can even get the coveted Agent/Client closing photo for social media at the Title/closing company.. You will not get that with a Flat Fee Brokerage. It just makes sense to stop paying 5, 6, or even 7% to sell your home when you can get full service for 3.5% total! But you can also go too little (honestly, it does save that much) and not get what you need! Call us today!

UNDERSTANDING

DISCOUNT REAL ESTATE BROKERS

Many people embarking on selling their home do not fully understand how real estate commissions work. When selling your home, a commission is agreed upon by the seller and the listing agent. The commission is referred to as a percentage of the final sales price.

Saving you money in commissions will hopefully lead to more equity being kept in your pocket at a closing but in a tough market it can lead to other advantages. Our savings can be used as a tool offering buyer perks such as an interest rate reduction, closing cost assistance, a renovation allowance, or simply offer a more competitive price to get your home sold faster.

The added equity in your pocket can also serve to help hold a deal together if an unforeseen inspection item arises such as a bad air conditioner or a roof that needs repair. These issues become much easier to negotiate when you are not paying a huge real estate agent fee at the closing table.

With 1 Percent Lists you are hiring a full service real estate agent that will provide you more equity at closing and more tools to get your home sold faster.

About Louisville, Kentucky

This vibrant city is known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and endless attractions. Whether you’re visiting for a few days or planning to move, you’ll find no shortage of things to do in this exciting city.

  1. Where to Stay:

There are a wide variety of hotels and accommodations in Louisville to suit every budget. From luxury hotels to budget-friendly inns, you’ll find something that fits your needs. For a unique lodging experience, check out 21c Museum Hotel, a modern boutique hotel with a museum, restaurant, and bar.

  1. Where to Eat:

Louisville is home to a variety of restaurants that offer everything from fine-dining to casual fare. For a classic Southern meal, try The Brown Hotel’s iconic Hot Brown sandwich. For a more upscale experience, dine at the English Grill in the historic Seelbach Hotel. For a quick bite, check out the food trucks in the NuLu neighborhood.

  1. What to Do:

No trip to Louisville would be complete without a visit to the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory, where you can take a tour and even make your own customized bat. For a dose of culture, head to the Speed Art Museum, the oldest and largest museum in Kentucky and home to an impressive collection of art. You can also explore the historic neighborhoods of Downtown Louisville, take a riverboat cruise, or explore the Kentucky Derby Museum.

  1. What to See:

Louisville is known as the “Gateway to the South,” and it’s easy to see why. The city is home to several iconic landmarks, including the Louisville Mega Cavern, the Belle of Louisville steamboat, and the Muhammad Ali Center. Other popular attractions include Churchill Downs, the Louisville Zoo, and the Kentucky Science Center.

  1. Where to Shop:

Louisville has plenty of places to shop, from trendy boutiques to vintage stores. The Fourth Street Live retail district is a great place to find designer labels, while the Highlands neighborhood offers an eclectic selection of thrift stores and vintage shops. You can also find a variety of souvenirs at the Louisville Visitor Center.

Is it a Buyer Market or Sellers Market?

The current real estate environment in Greater Louisville is a seller's market. The absorption rate for November 2021 was 2.1 months, which is far lower than the 5 months of inventory needed to denote a balanced market. This indicates that there is a shortage of homes for sale relative to the number of buyers in the market. 

Further data from the Greater Louisville MLS shows that homes are still selling at a very fast rate and that the median sale price is still slightly up at 0.2% compared to last year. Additionally, the average days on market has increased by 14.8% compared to that of the same month last year. 

Though it is difficult to predict what the real estate market will look like in the future, current data points to a seller's market that is likely to remain in place for some time.

  • Median Sale Price: $242,500
  • List To Sale Price Ratio: 97.8%
  • Days on the Market: 31
  • New Construction: 870
  • Median Listing Home Price/Sq Ft: $145

We guide you all the way through closing.

At Purple Door, we never pressure you to make or accept an offer that isn’t in your best interest. After a contract is accepted, we will coordinate the execution of the contract, inspections, documents, appraisals, and anything else necessary for the process of buying or selling your home. Best of all, you get to save money along the way.

In an effort to try and cling to their PRICY, OUTDATED business model, Traditional Realtors, will try and convince you they will sell your home faster, for more money and provide more services. THIS IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. In fact, we sell our homes in less time than the average agent in the Louisville area, our sales prices are closer to list price than average agent in Louisville area, and we provide all the same services as they do – just for thousands less than they charge.

We provide all the same services and marketing as the traditional agent, including:

  •  We schedule and manage open houses
  •  We provide amazing professional photography.
  •  We are available 24/7 to help you through the sale of your home via phone, text, and e-mail.
  • We will consult with you as long as needed to get your home ready to go to market.
