Bob Hicks

Being a first-time home buyer staring down one of the hottest housing markets in recent history, I did not know what to expect, nor where to start. After being put in touch with Bob things became easier and I got a much better understanding of the recent market trends, what to expect, and how to succeed in the market. Bob, leveraging the resources of the Tucker platform, immediately created an account on their platform to ensure I wouldn't miss any listings in my strike zone, and enabled me to seamlessly flag listings that I was interested in. Bob was incredibly flexible throughout, quickly responding to my messages, and also making himself available on short notice to attend showings. After identifying a home, I worked with Bob through email, phone, and text to build a negotiation strategy, decipher the inspection report, and ultimately close on the home! He proved to be knowledgeable about the local market, "market" contract terms, and provided helpful advice throughout. I'd refer Bob to any friend or family member looking to buy or sell a home.

Bob was fantastic to work with in our time of finding a home in the Indianapolis area. He was always fully prepared and extremely knowledgeable in every interaction we had. He was committed to being patient and ensuring we found what was right for our family and worked diligently to continue to drive that to happen. Bob truly went above and beyond when it came to negotiating with the seller. I firmly believe that we would not be in the home we are today if we had a different realtor! He fought for us, and for that, we will always be grateful! Beyond that, Bob went above and beyond with coordinating the logistics of a big move that our family was undertaking. What could have been an incredibly stressful time was made a whole lot easier by having Bob on our team. I would highly recommend Bob to anyone and being that we are young home buyers, we certainly will use him again in the future one day!

We recommend Bob Hicks as a standout real estate agent who provided great service and friendship while we were buying and selling homes. We met Bob five years ago at an open house, and were impressed by his authentic and trustworthy spirit. He was extraordinarily patient and helpful as we sorted through options and timing on our way to purchasing a new home and selling our prior one. In a world where too many service providers…
-Focus on the transaction, Bob puts great energy into building trust-based relationships.
-Are inconsistent in communication, Bob keeps his clients fully apprised on a timely basis.
-Let details fall through the cracks, Bob never does.
-Self-interest predominates, Bob prioritizes client interest.
-Are impatient to get things done, Bob takes the long view.
-Are not there when you need them, Bob steps up.
-Seem a bit shady, Bob is rock solid.
-Get sideways in the face of something unexpected, Bob is a great problem solver – steady, creative, and ready to do whatever it takes.
-Unwisely rock the boat, Bob stays calm and brings calm to all parties.
Diving into the housing market is fraught with tensions, tough decisions, and unforeseen turns of events. The most meaningful commendation I can make of Bob is that we emerge from such
a passage with very high appreciation for his capability, character, and friendship. You would be hard pressed to find a better person when it’s your time.

Bob was a pleasure to work with and was very professional and punctual. He provided quick responses on home showings as well as confirmation messages. At showings, he always came prepared with knowledge of the property and provided a handout for future reference. As first time home buyers, Bob explained the home buying process to us as well as the current state of the market. He was always patient with us and we never felt rushed in the process. He was always available to answer our questions.

We had been working with Bob Hicks for the past 3 years to get our home in Zionsville ready to sell. Bob would come over to our house on multiple occasions to give his advice on what upgrades would be appealing to buyers, what upgrades that we wanted but would not pay for themselves upon sale of the house, and any repairs that we should do to plan on selling. When it became time to put the house on the market, Bob met with us several times. He was honest with his opinions but left all of the decisions to us. Bob never pressured us in any way but would provide his professional advice when asked. Upon an accepted offer, Bob continued his support by helping us find contractors and worked with the buyer’s realtor to come to resolutions quickly. We would not hesitate to work with Bob on listing or purchasing a house in the future. We felt his support through the entire process.

Our family had been searching for a home for quite some time and was working with other realtors who were not a good fit. We were fortunate to meet Bob after he showed us one of his listings. Immediately, he understood what our family was looking for and his professionalism and patience never wavered despite a long search and some disappointments along the way. He is incredibly knowledgeable in real estate and was accommodating and flexible to our schedule. Bob walked us through every step of the buying and selling process, including giving clear, step-by-step instructions of what was recommended or required during each phase. He demonstrated responsive communication via text, e-mail, and phone calls and gave us peace of mind that he was representing us in good faith. I would highly recommend working with Bob. He provided us with a quality of life that we were looking for and couldn’t be happier!

We were blown away by Bob's awesome service. His market knowledge helped us get top dollar for our property. We were thrilled to get list price for our home after just a few showings. Bob did a wonderful job communicating and explaining all the steps it takes to sell a home. Bob Hicks is one of the best!

My wife and I have nothing but good things to say about Bob Hicks. We used his services to both sell our current home as well as buy a new home. We were very stressed since we have never bought and sold at the same time. From the very beginning, he was available to answer all our calls or messages and put us at ease through the entire process. We had buyers for our current home well before we found a new home, so we wanted to see just about every home in our price range. Bob was able to make himself available for every showing except one. The one time he wasn’t available (we were already at the house when we called him), he got one of his co-workers to meet us at the house. He was prompt with his communications and kept us well informed during the offer process, and even got us a better deal than we anticipated through his knowledge of the market. We felt he truly wanted to help us find our perfect home, and he has continued his excellent service even after closing. We highly recommend him for buying or selling!

Selling a house can be a painful, miserable, disorganized and frustrating experience.   Or it can be a thoughtful, highly organized, and successful experience if you choose Bob Hicks as your realtor.  Bob is an experienced marketing professional who fully understands the nuts and bolts process of selling real estate in the Internet era.  More importantly, Bob never forgets that real people are connected to every piece of property he sells. If Bob sells your house, he will work tirelessly to get you a top of market price.  But he will do so with dignity and respect for everyone involved. 

We have only positive remarks about our experience with Bob Hicks. We have sold and bought several houses over the years. Bob is undoubtedly the most patient, helpful, and knowledgeable realtor we have worked with during the stressful moving experience! He went out of his way to accommodate our schedules. Even after we moved into our new home, he continued to be of incredible assistance when we had difficulty communicating with the home warranty service. Bob called the home warranty company, unbeknownst to us, on our behalf, and we finally got the service we needed. Before, during, and after our move Bob was readily available. If we ever have to move again, we will call no one else but Bob Hicks! 

Bob Hicks did a great job selling our 25 year old Thornhill home. Extremely professional. Bob was able to leverage his corporate & executive background to showcase the property to our advantage.  The power of the TalkToTucker brand coupled with Bob's spot-on market analysis of the Zionsville area and Thornhill subdivision in particular provided that extra "value add" throughout the selling process.  Bob's expertise even aided us in closing the deal on the private purchase of an empty nester home in the highly desirable Mulberry Place subdivision in Zionsville.  In hindsight we were delighted to have trusted Bob's lead and were not disappointed.  His approach clearly exceeded our expectations.  We will definitely ask Bob Hicks to represent us again. 

My wife and I talked to 4 real estate agents, 3 of which didn’t seem to have our interests in mind. Bob Hicks of F.C. Tucker was the one agent who seemed truly interested in what we had to say and what our concerns were about selling our house.  From the first time we met Bob he explained, in detail, what the process was, what was expected of us and what we could expect from him. I feel Bob went way beyond what we expected of him. He treated the house like he was selling his own home. He made sure we knew what the house needed to look good to prospective buyers, what we needed to do to help the sale.  He did an open house as often as needed to get people in to view the house. Plus, the online pictures and description of the house were very professional.  Bob also kept in contact with us about every phase of the sale, from the time the sign went up to the final closing of the house.  I would strongly recommend Bob to use for the sale of your home.  I never expected a real estate agent to go to the lengths, above and beyond our expectations, like Bob Hicks and F.C. Tucker did for us.

Bob provided professional help in selling my Zionsville home.  His energy and professionalism were superior not to mention the results.  Bob was able to sell the home in three days after being on the market for quite some time previously.  Additionally, his follow-up was incredible without being pushy and obnoxious.  Bob played a HUGE part of the success.

As first time home buyers, we were clueless on where to start when purchasing a home. We met Bob at an open house, still unsure of whether buying was the right option for us. Bob stayed in contact with us despite our indecisiveness on home buying. Bob made it extremely easy to understand the ups and downs of the process of buying a house, and all the responsibility that came with it.  Once we had our heart set on a house, we worked with Bob through countless emails, phone calls and meetings and within two months we purchased and closed on the home.  He proved to be knowledgeable about the real estate market and always provided us with advice that would benefit us. He always responded to our many questions in a timely manner; his attention to detail, professionalism and personality make him a joy to work with.  We would refer Bob to any family member, friend or stranger looking to buy or sell a home! 

We were lucky to have Bob Hicks as our agent, and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.  When we first started looking at houses, we were surprised by how aggressive the agents we met would be to add us as clients. Bob was from the start at a much higher level professionally and put our needs first. His experience and knowledge were clearly apparent, and proved to be an incredibly valuable asset in our first home buying process. While looking for homes, Bob was able to secure showings for us at highly sought after properties on the same day. After our offer was accepted, Bob was on top of every detail and was readily available to answer any questions we had without delay.   He went above and beyond our expectations, and worked tirelessly on our behalf. If you are looking for an agent, do not hesitate to call Bob Hicks.

Professional, courteous, responsive & knowledgeable!  These are just a few awesome ways for us to describe Bob Hicks!  Bob functioned as our buyer's agent in the purchase of our condo and what an outstanding job he did!  Our transaction from start to finish was one for the books in terms of how quick it went.  From the first time we saw the property to leaving the closing table for our new home we completed the process within 14 days.  Not all deals go this fast but that's how our purchase played out and we are so grateful that Bob was our agent!  If we had a question, thought or concern Bob was right there to provide us the answers, information and guidance we needed.  We just couldn't be more pleased with our experience! 

We had to sell our home to move to California and initially had an agent that could not make much traction. Bob Hicks was referred to us and we couldn't have been luckier. Bob is not only a great professional but he's also a remarkable person. He managed numerous repairs on the home in our absence and made the process painless and seamless. He went far beyond the call of duty and was always gracious and generous with his time.  After having bought and sold several homes, I have to say that Bob is the best realtor by far. I recommend him wholeheartedly and without any reservations. 

Bob played a huge part in the sale of our home! From knowing how to stage the house to figuring out a reasonable price point Bob was able to guide us through the home sale process. He never left any questions unanswered and was prompt in relaying any information to us. We had an accepted offer within a week of Bob listing our home and obviously could not have done it without him! He made us feel a part of the process, as well as listened to our needs and concerns. You will not get better service, professionalism or success from anyone else out there! 

We had a great experience using Bob Hicks as our realtor during our relocation to Indianapolis. A friend recommended using Bob, and we are so thankful we did! From the beginning of our relationship with Bob, he thoughtfully listened to what we wanted and shared real estate options for us that targeted our specific preferences. He truly supported our vision, and let our choices drive our home search while guiding us with his market expertise. Bob’s communication with us, knowledge of the market, and follow-up was commendable and helped us seamlessly purchase our dream home in Indianapolis. He was consistently our advocate and we always felt he had our best interest at heart. His Tucker Team of experts collaborated efficiently to support us throughout the process of getting a loan secured, making an offer, and closing the deal on our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and our home-purchase experience was so rewarding and fun working with Bob! 

We truly feel blessed to have had Bob Hicks assist us in both the selling of our home and the purchasing of our new home in Zionsville. From the beginning of our adventure with Bob he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, helpful, and very patient with us,  as our home search lasted over a year! He patiently showed us every home we were interested in and was extremely responsive to each and every request we had to see a home quickly in a competitive market, even checking out homes for us while we were out of town. When we finally decided on 'the one', Bob handled everything smoothly and gracefully, going above and beyond the call of duty for us in many, many ways, all of which we are truly thankful for. There were several times during the selling/buying process that we realized how lucky we were to have Bob on our side!  We have bought and sold several homes over the years but never had a realtor come close to assisting us in ways that he did. Bob is a class act, and we highly recommend him to anyone selling or buying a new home in the Indianapolis area.
