We bought our home while stationed overseas in the military during the COVID crisis. Keiths knowledge of the local environment combined with his professional approach made it a great experience.
The only hitch during the sale of our house was a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding by many buyers and agents about the right to inspect and cancel rider. Several offers began to get cold feet when on Keiths correct advice that our counter include striking that rider. In the end we asked Keith to contact our best offer and ask if they would return to the table if we allowed the inspect and cancel to stay. They agreed and we, with Keiths help cruised to closing at asking plus $10k!
I have nothing but good things to say about Keith and the staff that assisted with the sale of my home. It was an awesome experience and showed me how the sale of a property should go from start to finish. 2018
Mr. Bailey presented himself in a professional manner and had shown up to the initial meeting well prepared with information in hand. He was upfront and honest and this was important in making my decision to choose him as my real estate agent. He was willing to work with me and was consistent with how quick he was to inform me of any changes, repairs or any other critical information that arose during the selling process. I would highly recommend Keith Bailey to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in the Okaloosa area. 2018

Searched the Internet for agents/brokers local to the Destin, FL area. Keith's reputation on Zillow and other sites across the Internet are stellar. So, because of these reviews, we chose to reach out to Keith through Internet site that allows agents to bid to represent you. Keith offered and we accepted after several conversations.
Keith Bailey helped us buy a condo site unseen. We trusted his knowledge of the area and felt like he proved his integrity over and over again. Keith is an excellent agent/broker and helped us immensely throughout the condo buying process.

I really did appreciate the way in which he helped me to fill in all the necessary documents for the sale as everything had to be done by internet because I was in Europe. 2017

Keith was solid at every aspect of the home selling process, from the initial assessment as to the valuation of the house, to dealing with a difficult situation in terms of actually showing the property, to negotiating with the buyers, and ultimately, to nailing down the details on the closing. Super-nice guy, managed to smooth over every wrinkle that came up in the process - and there are always wrinkles! Highly recommended. 2017
Keith Bailey was referred to us by way of a friend that had recently used Keith Bailey Realtor to help him sell and purchase a new home. We were first time buyers and new that we had to hire an experienced, knowledgeable and full time real estate professional to guide us through this complex process. Mr. Bailey's knowledge of the market, property values, contracts, communication and negotiation skills were impeccable. We also found Keith's closing coordinator to be of great value. Keith oversaw the contract negotiation, appraisal, home inspection, termite inspection and above all connected us with a first class lender. We found the process to be easy and hassle free. We highly recommend Keith Bailey as your next realtor if you are considering buying or selling.
Keith Bailey went above and beyond what we expected in regards to marketing and ultimately selling our home. He helped us price our home to sell for a fair price. Keiith marketed our home so it would get the best eosuee possible. We would highly recommend Keith Bailey to list your home, that is if you want to see a "sold" sign on your property. 2016
My husband and I are relocating from Orlando to the Destin Area due to a job transfer. We were so lucky to find Keith. He quickly determined our needs and was so patient showing us the entire area from one end to the other so that we could figure out where we wanted to live. His extensive knowledge of the area was critical.
He always acted professionally when dealing with other realtors and owners and in negotiating our contracts and offers.
Keith was incredibly responsive. We would call, text or email and he would reply immediately regardless of whether it was early in the morning, evening or weekend.
Keith is a genuine person who really cares that you find the home that's right for you.
We will definitely be friends with Keith for years to come and recommend him to our friends and colleagues.

My husband and I had sold our home in central Florida. Our intentions were to move to the Destin, Florida or surrounding area. We did not have a real estate agent contact so we browsed the internet searching for experienced realtors. Our main goal was to find a name brand company with a full time professional that had a minimum of 10 years experience. We were fortunate to find Keith Bailey, Realtor. He and his company Better Homes & Gardens Real Estate Emerald Coast was the right match. The market at that time was saturated so we wanted to do our due diligence and see as many homes as we could so we could start the elimination process. My husband and I found Mr. Bailey to honest, timely and exceptional at communicating. Mr. Bailey brought in his team of experts such as mortgage Banker, closing coordinator, title company and home inspector which simplified the process of buying a home. Keith Bailey was there with us all along the way. We are glad to say we developed a trust with Keith which in return has turned into a friendly relationship. We have already referred family members to Keith. If you want someone to fight for you and do the job the right way, call Keith Bailey. 2012

I used Keith Bailey to purchase the home 4 years ago and it was a 2yr long process because of it being a short sale. He was knowledgable and worked diligently to secure the purchase for my husband and I. We kept in touch while we owned the home, as a friendship was made during the purchase. I always knew I would use Keith when it came time to sell. He is professional, honest, and extremely knowledgable of the market in the area. It was a pleasure to work with him again on the selling side of things. Everything ran super smooth, we could not have asked for an easier transaction. Keith was able to answer all of our questions in a timely manner, kept us up to date on the statistics of showings, web viewings, etc. I would highly recommend Keith if you want a highly knowledgable, personable, and honest realtor on the Emerald Coast! 2016
Keith was a great help with making my home buying experience go as smooth as possible. I live in Georgia and through his eyes, he made sure the items I was looking for (family friendly area , purchase value and re-sale value) were met. He also kept me up to date during the purchase timeline on things to do on my end to make the closing go hassle free! 2015
