Testimonials

Lake did a great job helping us get the house ” out there” for the buyers to see with the video presentation that presented the house. From that point things moved very quickly with an offer and following negotiations to come to get to the price we sold the house for. Our deal ended up as a cash deal with no strings attached and all this happened in just a few days. I truly do suggest Lake as a go to person in the selling process. He did his home work completely, kept us informed as the process developed and was very timely in all communications. In short an honest, hardworking partner for us.

Lake walked us through every step of what we thought would be a difficult process. We were living overseas and had no idea about the area we were moving to. He took all of our needs into consideration and made suggestions about the best places to live based on our budget. He was so helpful in going to the locations we were interested in and taking pictures for us and letting us know about the things we couldn’t see in the pictures. He ultimately helped us make the best decision for our family. We could not be happier with our home. He made us feel welcome before we even arrived in the state. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for that personal touch.

I sold my house in Haughton and made a hefty profit using Lake Childress as my realtor. Highly recommend him. He provided great service and advice to get my house sold very quickly.

John Grindley

We were a military family living out of state. We contacted several local real estate agents and Lake Childress was by far the most responsive and attentive. We decided to choose him as our agent and we were not disappointed. I traveled to the area twice before we relocated and closed on our home. Both times Lake was generous with his time and attention. He was also readily available with any questions I had via phone or email while out of state. He is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy, sell or rent property in the Shreveport/Bossier City area.

Angie Hunsicker

Working with Lake was fabulous! He was willing to show us houses around our crazy schedule, even with a toddler in tow. He was honest about market value and wanted to make sure we found the best house for us. Even when a deal fell through, due to sellers, he was encouraging and motivated to help us find the perfect house. We don’t plan on moving from our fabulous home anytime soon, but if we did we would call Lake again!

Christy Honea

Lake was recommended to us by a friend. We were new in town and needed an honest, reliable realtor. Lake certainly lived up to the recommendation. He is patient, hard-working & reliable. Lake was readily available and had our best interest at heart. Our family bought 2 homes and sold one with his guidance. We highly recommend Lake if you need an excellent agent that you can depend on.

Ray & Lynn Dell Pynes

We are so grateful that Lake was referred to us by close friends who had a great experience with him. Lake was a pleasure to work with and always made us feel like he was just as invested on our house hunt as we were! We are in the house and neighborhood that we envisioned when we started the looking process; Lake made our first time buying process easy and fun! I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy in our area.

Meagan Martin

The guy is a pro! He has definitely mastered his craft. My wife and I have referred Lake to at least three friends locally and have recommended his advice to family out of state needing a third party opinion.
No question was too dumb and he worked around our schedule. Lake made the process as painless as possible.

Heath Hodge

Lake worked with me for close to a year for me to find a house I felt comfortable with. He was never impatient and very knowledgeable about the whole process which I found very helpful since it was my first time buying a house and I was nervous. Even when I was getting discouraged about buying a house his knowledge and willingness to help me in any way possible even if I decided not to buy a house was rather encouraging. He helped me through whatever bumps in the road may have come up, and eventually I found a house I felt comfortable purchasing. I have been living here for almost 3 years and am still happy with it. I still hear from Lake regularly just him finding out how I am doing and if all is going well.

Chris Fields

We sold our home and bought our current one through Lake Childress. If we could describe him in one word it would be PROFESSIONAL. He was always on time, always promptly returned phone calls and went above and beyond for us in every capacity. We were so happy to FINALLY find a real estate agent that we could truly trust to be honest with us and that we could depend on. He showed a genuine interest in what was best for our family. Lake always made it possible to see as many houses as we wanted to in one day, was flexible, and so patient and informative. He always made us feel totally comfortable and like we could really take our time when viewing houses, which is essential when you are choosing your potential home. We were extremely impressed with his performance and feel blessed to have had him help us through this process!

Lake goes above and beyond the average realtor to help his clients. I was not only moving to a new city but was also in the process of opening up a business at the same time. Lake was very helpful with his extensive knowledge of the areas I was interested in and the local market. At the time I was looking for a home I was having to drive over two hours to just view any available listings and Lake was ALWAYS there to meet me at any time and any place . He also provided a tremendous amount of the footwork for me so I would know if a listing was something which I would be interested in before I made the long drive to personally view it. Lake constantly let me know the pros and cons of any listing I was looking at so as to find the perfect fit for me. It has been over four years ago since we went through this process together and since then he has even sold that same home for me. Lake is a great guy and will always be straightforward with his clients. We have continued to keep in touch over the years and I have no doubt that when I need a realtor, Lake will be the only person I contact.

Ray Pynes

Lake is courteous and helpful in finding the best home for you and your family. He has the technology for getting you into the right home for your budget. I consider him a professional in all aspects of his business. Highly recommended!

Amy Vercher

Lake went above and beyond for me when I was ready to buy a house. I can’t imagine anyone working harder than Lake. I had never purchased a home, therefore knew nothing about it. Lake gave great advice thought out the entire process, and became my friend. He answered all of my questions and concerns. If I ever decide to move I would only use Lake and highly recommend him to all of my friends and family.

Cindy Metzger

Lake did a great job at finding my fiancé and I the perfect house. He was attentive and looked out for our best interest. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Kody Byles

So happy we found Lake Childress! As first time home buyers, we were nervous and really had no idea what we were doing. Lake was extremely helpful, informative and always there when we needed him. He helped us find the right area and the perfect house. He walked us through the negotiation process, and ensured we got everything we wanted, plus some! We could ask any question, and he never made us feel as naive as I know we were. I can not recommend Lake Childress enough. When buying a home you really NEED someone you can trust and who makes you feel confident. That’s Lake! We were blessed to find an awesome realtor, and a new friend.

Mark Stone

Lake recently sold our home for us. We had used him before to find and purchase a new home as well as sell another house. He is the only realtor we would choose in this area. Lake always goes the extra mile to answer any of our questions and keep us informed of the current real estate market. He always makes himself available to you whether it be evenings or weekends. The thing that most impresses me the most about Lake is his positive disposition and drive to make the client happy. Every time we have needed Lake whether it be buying or selling, we have walked away very happy with the results he achieved for us!

Ashley Worley

Rotating out of Korea with a wife, 2 kids and 2 dogs is not easy, especially having to send them all ahead of me. Lake met my family, settled them in, showed them around the area, and found us our dream home within days of arrival. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lake to anyone, anytime.

Colonel Peter Ellis, United States Air Force

My family cannot find the words to say how much we thank Lake for helping us find our first home. I LOVE our new home and only dreamed of having a home so grand. We owe it all to Lake. He was so patient with me!!!! Though I was in the military stationed hundreds of miles away, he treated me as if I was right in his office. He was extremely patient with us during this entire process. After looking at 20 homes in a week, we found our dream home. Lake will always be our first choice when it comes to buying our next home. Thank you for everything!!

Sharon Francis

Lake made buying a home so easy for my wife and I. We were grateful for how much patience he had in answering all of our questions and taking us to look at so many houses. He never pushed us into looking at something we were not interested in. We strongly recommend Lake to anyone looking at buying a new home.
