Global Real Estate Advisor · Summit Sotheby's International Realty · Ivins, Utah
Your trusted advisor for Ivins & Southern Utah real estate
27 years of experience, Sotheby's heritage, and Private Exclusive access.


Your Trusted Advisor
For 27 years I've helped families buy and sell real estate in Utah, and today I focus on Ivins, Kayenta, Entrada, Santa Clara, and St. George. As a Global Real Estate Advisor with Summit Sotheby's International Realty, I pair that local experience with one of the most recognized names in real estate.
What that means for you: honest guidance on value and timing, marketing with global reach, and access to my brokerage's Private Exclusive program, so buyers can see homes before they go public and sellers can market with discretion.
How Private Exclusive worksTalk with RobertPrivate Exclusive
Some of the best homes in Ivins, Kayenta, Entrada, and St. George never make a big public splash. Through my brokerage's Private Exclusive program, I can share a home privately with a vetted network of agents and their serious buyers before (or instead of) a full public launch. Here's how that works for you.
Your home is shared privately with network agents and their qualified buyers.
If you choose, the home builds public anticipation before it's fully live.
Your home launches on the MLS and public sites, backed by the pricing insight and demand we've already built.
You choose the path. Some sellers stay private, others move through every phase. Exact phases and options depend on the brokerage program.
A listing marketed privately to a select network of agents and their buyers instead of being published on the MLS and public home-search sites right away.
No. Your home is still actively marketed to agents and serious buyers, just not broadcast publicly. You decide if and when it goes public.
For privacy and security, to test price without building a public record of days on market or price cuts, or to start generating interest while the home is still being prepared.
Private Exclusives are shared through agents. Tell me what you're looking for in Southern Utah and I'll let you know about matching private listings as I'm able to share them.
Sotheby's International Realty is now part of the same parent company as Compass, and Private Exclusive tools are rolling out across that network. Ask me what's currently available for your home or search.
Yes. Private listings are handled in line with brokerage policy, local MLS rules, and NAR's Clear Cooperation Policy as applicable. If a home is marketed publicly, it goes on the MLS as those rules require.
Private Exclusive is a program of the brokerage network. Availability, features, and eligibility depend on the brokerage program and may change. Listings follow MLS and Clear Cooperation rules as applicable. Sellers choose how their home is marketed.

★★★★★“We honestly cannot say enough good things about working with Robert Bolar. Buying a home remotely could have been really stressful, but he made the whole process feel smooth and surprisingly easy from beginning to end.
One of the very first things he did was spend time educating us on the area. He knew the market extremely well and helped us understand not only the best areas to focus on, but also areas to stay away from. He also shared insights on future development and even things Ivins City Council was discussing and considering, which gave us a much better understanding of the long-term picture.
We also had some very specific accessibility needs for our family, and he really listened. He took the time to understand what mattered most to us and was able to guide us toward homes that truly fit our situation instead of just showing us random listings.
Since we were doing everything remotely, he went above and beyond constantly. When homes came on the market, he would walk through them for us, take detailed videos, and even fly his drone to give us aerial views so we could get a better feel for the property and surrounding area. It genuinely felt like we were there with him.
He was incredibly available and responsive no matter the day or time. And when we found the house we loved, he was exactly the kind of realtor you want in your corner. He helped keep us from making emotional decisions or offering too much just because we were afraid of losing the house. He reminded us that we actually had leverage and helped us stay patient and strategic through the negotiation process.
What also stood out to us is that once the sale was done, the relationship did not just end. He has continued helping us even after closing, including picking up packages and taking them to the house for us. That says a lot about the kind of person he is.
He was there for inspections, repairs, closing, and all the little things in between. Beyond just being really good at what he does, he is simply a kind, honest, good person who genuinely cares about his clients.
We would recommend Robert without hesitation to anyone looking to buy a home in the area.”

★★★★★“Robert went far and beyond my expectations. I was moving from Denver to St George as a RENTER, not a buyer (at this time). Robert was more interested in finding a place for me than he was looking to receive a commission by selling me a house. Robert spent an entire day, away from his normal schedule, to drive me around the ENTIRE St George area to find a townhouse that fit my requirements to RENT. I much appreciate his time, professionalism, and friendship.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar is the greatest real estate agent I’ve ever worked with. He’s incredibly kind, patient, and a great listener. We went house shopping to SO many homes with all of our kids.

We will be using Robert for any future home buying needs. Highly recommended!”

I would highly recommend Robert Bolar to anyone looking for a real estate agent.”

He was able to navigate the market very effectively, and his guidance led me to the perfect purchase. There were no surprises in the process, and we closed with absolutely no problems.

★★★★★“Robert went above and beyond as our agent when helping us find the perfect home. Robert and his team made our relocation from out of state much easier than we expected. We look forward to working with him on our next move.”
★★★★★“Robert was awesome to work with when finding out new home. He was responsive and tireless in his search. He found us just the right house and we are very grateful for his help. We were so happy we referred him to several friends.”
★★★★★“Robert helped us sell my late father’s home. We don’t live in Utah and we were worried about selling a house in another state during a pandemic. We didn’t need to worry as Robert made it seem easy. The house sold quickly for a very fair price because of his knowledge and understanding of the local market. Robert took care of the details and kept us informed. We highly recommend Robert for your real estate needs.”

I've been most impressed by Robert's honesty and integrity, attention to detail, and understanding of our local housing market. He is a patient listener and a great advocate. He gives sounds advice and has never left us feeling pressured.
At first, Robert Bolar was just our realtor. Nowadays, we consider him a family friend.”
★★★★★“After trying to sell our home on our own, we hired Robert. He gave us great advice about how to get it ready and took care of every detail. It sold shortly after we moved out of state and he handled the transaction completely. Robert is professional, personable, kind and competent. I've referred him to friends and family and would highly recommend him to anyone without any reservations.”
★★★★★“Robert is an amazing realtor! He has sold three homes for us. He met with us and had the houses up for sale within a day or two. He is always available and never minds you contacting him with questions. He is great to update you on the house showings and very honest about what people say about your home. He offers helpful suggestions to sell the home quickly. We had a problem with radon in our last home. Robert called a guy to come and take care of it. Within a few days the radon problem was gone and we didn’t have to do one thing about it. He is kind, competent and patient! We highly recommend him!”

★★★★★“Robert Bolar is the realtor that you want to work with. He’s extremely professional, friendly, and hardworking. He has a wealth of knowledge about the communities and has a sharp eye to point out advantages and disadvantages that the average layperson may not otherwise notice. He sincerely wants you to find the right home for you and he walks you through the process every step of the way. We’re an Air Force family who has been living in military housing for the entirety of our marriage and this was our first home buying experience. The process seemed overwhelming, but Robert made it easy. He’s an excellent negotiator and will work tirelessly on your behalf. Once we moved into our dream home, we encountered a few unforeseen issues, but Robert bent over backwards to make sure everything was resolved until we were satisfied. We can’t say enough good things about him and we highly recommend Robert to anyone looking to buy a home.
~Darrin and Patricia D.”
★★★★★“If you're looking for someone that is honest, professional, experienced, and reliable, then you have found him. Robert Bolar was excellent to work with! We never once had any problem getting ahold of him for questions, to sign documents, etc. We appreciated all the places that he showed to us and how he organized and planned everything for us. It was nice to not have to worry about scheduling anything. He made it easy.
He helped us buy our first home. Six years later he helped us sell our first home, and buy our next home. Our experience was positive and Robert was flawless. We definitely recommend him. Also, if you're looking for someone that has heart and truly cares... this is your man!”
★★★★★“When we moved from out of state, Robert helped coordinate and finalize our home purchase in two days time. He continued to facilitate the closing remotely.
His knowledge and ability for online resourcing was unparalleled and impressive.”
★★★★★“After reading many great Reviews for Robert, here on Google, especially those about him working well with people across the country - I gave him a call. He was very prompt in calling me back and worked easily with me across the country until I could arrive in Utah. He was on-time to appointments and very professional. He proved himself to be very thorough and answered all my questions about the Ogden Real Estate market. Additionally, Robert went above & beyond helping with local contacts, information and further help.”
★★★★★“Robert is AMAZING! Robert has helped us sell and purchase numerous homes. I sincerely appreciate his level of kindness, generosity, concern, knowledge, and professionalism. I would HIGHLY recommend Robert in relation to real estate needs. He genuinely cares about his clients and is willing to put forth the extra effort to make their real estate experience enjoyable and as stress free as possible. He communicates well with his clients and keeps them informed from beginning to end. 5 STAR REALTOR!”
★★★★★“If you are looking for a Realtor who is going to work for and with you, Robert is your guy. The first time we worked with Robert was in 2006 and back then he worked with us on selling and buying. 13 years later when we saw a house we liked, we called Robert. Even though it was his day off (Sunday), he still made time to meet with us and show us the house. He works with you during the negotiation, buying, and through moving. There may be other good realtors out there, Robert is the best….and a 5-Star Realtor.”
★★★★★“Although Robert is someone who oversees million-dollar transactions and holds leadership positions in statewide realtor associations, he was more than willing to give gold-star service to a couple of picky and indecisive out-of-towners looking to buy a first home in Ogden. He applied his energy, experience, expertise, and network to our case as if we were the most important clients in his portfolio.
Robert has the qualities one ideally wants in a realtor. He is skilled and savvy in negotiation, intimately familiar with trends and issues and people in the local real estate market, knowledgeable about physical aspects of a house, and on top of all the policies and procedures around homebuying. He also happens to be down-to-earth, genuinely friendly, gimmick-free, and amazingly responsive.
We dilly-dallied for a few years, but things moved quickly once we finally made up our minds, and Robert made it happen. He walked us through everything as first-time homebuyers, shared his extensive connections, introduced us to an agent who landed us a mortgage on good terms, made himself available night and day, and managed, after all, to negotiate a below-list price. We saw the respect, professionalism and good will that surround Robert as a seasoned agent and fine human being smoothing the way before us as buyers. All in all, homebuying was a much better experience than we had any right to hope for. We can’t imagine a better realtor than Robert Bolar.”
★★★★★“I just finished a sale of a property with Robert. He was a pleasure to work with through the entire experience. More importantly by thinking outside the box and working hard he accomplished what others could not. I absolutely recommend him as an agent . Thanks Robert”
★★★★★“Robert was amazing. He was quick to respond to every text or email, and there was no question or issue too unimportant. He genuinely cared about helping us both sell our home and find the right new one, and he managed to engineer it so we could move straight from one to the other. I would never use anyone else.”
★★★★★“Robert is the nicest guy you'll meet, very professional and willing to go far beyond the extra mile to help sell your home. Always answers his phone or returns calls right away and kept us constantly informed, great lines of communication.
We struggled with a difficult market trying to sell our home after moving out-of-state, but Robert was there to help us work through any issues we ran into, often times working far beyond his job description. We could not have sold our house without his tireless support and willingness to do whatever it took to get the deal done. I doubt other realtors would have provided half the support and understanding he has throughout a really hard situation.
Robert is a proactive, knowledgable and compassionate real estate agent dedicated to getting your home sold, no matter what obstacles arise. Thanks so much, Robert!”
★★★★★“Robert is one of just a few agents in the industry that literally works daily on sharpening his saw with his skills and ability. Whether it's a trip to Washington D.C. to learn about recent legal changes and cutting edge marketing techniques or investing in new tech to ensure his clients are receiving the best chance of finding the right house or top dollar on their home. Robert uses this knowledge to ensure that the buyers he works with have every opportunity to find their perfect home. He does this through his in depth knowledge of the community and levers that knowledge to find houses that aren't on the MLS. With his partnership with Coldwell Banker, Robert gives every advantage to his sellers to find top dollar. On average, Robert sells homes for 4% more than his competitors. Robert really sticks out in the industry as a professional who is honest, hyper intelligent, market fluent, and client centric. His production and experience also speaks for itself!”
★★★★★“Robert is an honest, hard working realtor, who goes out of his way to ensure your family is comfortable and are well educated with all aspects of the home buying process. He is quick to respond and is very knowledgable. He knows the market and works to ensure the homes you view fit the needs of your family. He was great to work with, and when and if the time comes, I look forward to working with him again. I would highly recommend Robert.”
★★★★★“Had the opportunity to take a GRI class from Robert. So much valuable information!! Thank you Robert for being willing to share your knowledge.....”
★★★★★“I recently had the pleasure of attending a class taught by Robert Bolar in Southern Utah. My only comment is that I wish, wish, wish I could have had his advice and teachings a long time ago. He was very patient and approachable and I took more away from the 2 days with him than I have in months learning from others. Thank you so much, Robert. You will never understand how grateful I am for the knowledge you shared with me which will help ensure my success in the real estate industry. Candy Morrison, Real Estate Professional-Re/Max Associates St. George”
★★★★★“Never have I been in a 'Technology Class' where I was both educated and entertained at the same time. I was extremely impressed with Robert's non-nerdy, non-geeky, easy to understand, and fun approach to the use of Technology to expand my business...and this is coming from one who is extremely challenged in that world! In the words of Juan Pablo..."Don't be afraid...Don't be discouraged" ...now just brush your hair back and you'll be fine! You can do it...learn how to Go Paperless & use Docusign, experience less stress and more freedom!!! And thank you for your sidekick...Abigail!!!”
★★★★★“I will always take a class with Robert, over and over again. He keeps up to date with technology and you can always learn something new...he knows the newest and latest and the bad and the good. He is a great source of information and he is always available to help you. Thanks to him, I am totally paperless !”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar did an excellent job helping us with the sell of our home. He was so easy to work with and I had complete trust in his opinions. I felt like he was totally trustworthy and always had our best interest in mind. He was very knowledgeable and eager to help us in any way that he could. We moved out of town and he was even able to recommend an agent that could help us find a home where we were moving to. I appreciated how dedicated he was to answering any questions or concerns that I had. If you are looking for an awesome realtor that isn't pushy, is fun and always has a big smile, then he is the one to work with.”
★★★★★“After working with another realtor and feeling largely ignored we teamed up with Robert and find exactly the opposite. He is tremendously knowledgeable, prepared and organized. We felt up to date at anytime on the status of our home sale. I wouldn't hesitate to bring him in next time we are in the market.”
★★★★★“Robert was always easy to get a hold of, and acted quickly on each and every one of our requests (which there were several). Love the house. Thank you!”
★★★★★“Professional, courteous, and thorough. Protects your interests in real estate transactions. The model of what should be expected of a realtor. Very knowledgeable of the market and community. Works to improve the community. Educates clients in the process of buying or selling. Always ready and willing to help.”
★★★★★“We have worked with Robert Bolar several times and each and every experience has been excellent. Robert is professional, knowledgable, prompt, courteous, efficient and hard-working. He is always well-prepared, organized and easy to contact in all aspects. Robert has worked hard to help us find our perfect home and has always been patient and understanding while we discussed and explored our options. He was never pushy, and knew exactly what we were looking for. We highly recommend him to anyone for all realty needs.”
★★★★★“Clear, concise, and committed to a wonderful Real Estate experience every time! That's what Realtor Robert Bolar is all about. He's also committed to being on the leading edge of technology so that transactions are seamless and can be easily handled over great distance if necessary. I recommend him every chance I get.”
★★★★★“I worked with Robert on a recent purchase and I really appreciated his communication and keeping everybody abreast throughout the process! I look forward to working with him again!”
★★★★★“Robert is very knowledgeable in the real estate market, especially the North Ogden area. He professionally applied that knowledge in the recent sale of my property. He was always responsive to ANY questions or concerns. Any small bumps in the process were quickly remedied Under his watchful eye. His photographer is top notch (not an agents's cell phone) which really set up my property for immediate success. So grateful for the QUICK and successful sale of my home to a well qualified buyer. Robert isn't afraid of hard work!”
★★★★★“Being fed up with California, my boyfriend and I decided we wanted to move someplace with better weather, fewer people and less expensive. We searched homes online and came up with about 15 homes to look at throughout Northern Utah. I started checking out realtors online and decided to go with Robert Bolar. I called Robert and told him we were thinking about moving to the area, gave him the addresses of the 15 homes we were interested in seeing and he said he would "get cracking" on it.
Several weeks later, we visited Utah, met Robert and he proceeded to start showing us all the homes which we wanted to see. Robert was everything you would want in a Realtor, and then some. Compassionate, sincere, professional and the type of person that you meet once and feel like you've known all your life.
While showing us homes, he would listen intently to our wants and needs, making a mental note of everything that was important to us. He was so very professional and very kind, always smiling.
We found the home of our dreams, and although there were a few problems, Robert always kept the faith and hung in there, never giving up, and making it happen for us to get our beautiful home.
If it wasn't for Robert Bolar, we wouldn't be living in such a beautiful place, in such a beautiful home.
Thank you Robert, for all your hard work and patience! You are truly "the best".
Vicki and Tony”
★★★★★“SUCCESS!!
I live in Texas but had a rental property in North Ogden that I needed to sell. I did a quick Internet search and happened across Robert's info and I'm really glad I did. I listed in early March and had an offer within the first two weeks- which fell through - but had another offer 2 days later. So that's about the end of March and we closed today!!! The better news is the successful offer was $4k above the first offer. I've never met Robert - only talked with him on the phone, but he did a fantastic job, kept me informed and got the deal done. Thanks Robert!”
★★★★★“Robert was such a great person to work with as my husband and I purchased our first home. He listened to our needs and guided us through the process with professionalism and kindness. We were warned that buying a home is such a stressful experience but working with Robert honestly made it as easy and with the least amount of stress as possible! It's really refreshing to work with someone who has a vested interest and knowledge of the local community. We couldn't have asked for better. If you want to work with someone who knows the North Ogden general area and who is just a good person, highly recommended!”
★★★★★“We were just a couple of picky and indecisive people looking to buy a starter home in downtown Ogden, but Robert put the full weight of his impressive experience, expertise, and network behind us, gave us amazing service, and helped us buy a great house in a tough market. He's everything a realtor should be -- skilled and savvy in negotiation, intimately familiar with trends and issues and people in the local real estate market, knowledgeable about physical aspects of a house, and on top of all the policies and procedures around homebuying. He also happens to be down-to-earth, genuinely friendly, gimmick-free, amazingly responsive, and surrounded by respect and good will that benefited us as buyers being represented by him. Could not imagine a more capable, professional, or generous realtor, and highly recommend his service.”
★★★★★“Hands down one of the best and most thorough Realtors you will ever meet. In an industry that is plagued with the incompetent and ethically challenged. Robert is in a league of his own. His follow through is a 10. Super smart and resourceful. Above all else kind and trustworthy. To put my review in to context; my husband and I flew in from Portland today to see to 2 properties. It was a quick turn around day trip. Both properties are complex and unique. He came prepared and represented us well. I happen to be a Realtor myself, so I have lots of opinions on how the job should be done well. I could not have done it better if I tried myself. Quit reading this...and GO!HIRE!ROBERT! I promise you will not be disappointed.”
★★★★★“Just had to take a minute to share my view of Robert (from an insider's viewpoint) I'm also a Realtor in Utah and found it interesting looking at the reviews on Robert's profile here. It should be obvious to anyone that Robert is a great agent and does a fantastic job for his clients. But in case there is any doubt, here is an unsolicited review from one of his competitors who has absolutely nothing to gain. I've known Robert for many years. Since the first time I met him, I've found him to be entirely forthright, and friendly. He is an ambitious person who has a lot of internal drive to get the job done. You'll be able to count on him to sell your home, or help you buy one, or just get some helpful advice about the real estate market. I would count Robert as extremely knowledgeable and all around smart not only in real estate, but other areas as well. He really takes the time to learn about the things he has an interest in, and has been very willing to share that knowledge. Robert has shared his knowledge and skills with others over and over including teaching classes to fellow Realtors who are his competition. In summary, I would not hesitate a moment to refer someone to Robert, I know he can be trusted. In fact if I weren't a Realtor myself, I'd be very happy using him.”
★★★★★“Look no further. Robert is outstanding. Helped me begin search for a home in Ogden when I lived 2 states away, then worked *very* patiently with this first-time buyer until I found the right opportunity. As my buying agent he was an absolute model of professionalism, courtesy, and patience.
Years later he kindly came to advise me on improvements as I prepared to sell the home. Then as my selling agent he again over-performed - walked me through the process every step, kept me promptly updated on developments, *always* answered my calls no matter the time of day or where he was. Helped identify contractors to assist with landscaping and cleaning while I was again living 2 states away, arranging access whenever necessary.
There seemed to be no detail I could request that was too small for Robert - he consistently would rise to the occasion with a smile and reliable follow-through.
I simply can't say enough about him. I only wish I could work with him again in my new region. Thanks for everything, Robert.”
★★★★★“Before selling my home, I researched agents and real estate businesses in the Ogden area. I am so happy that I chose Robert for such an important decision. From the beginning he was professional, thorough, and sensitive to my situation. Through the whole process everything went exactly as he explained. He and even his son went above and beyond trying to help us get our home ready for sale, even doing yard work since I am out of state, and the final sale price was for more than I could have hoped for. He is a great agent and a good man, and he gets my highest recommendation. Thank you, Robert.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar has sold two homes for me. He is an outstanding realtor. He recently sold a condo for me. There were several issues that had to be dealt with through the home owners' association. He handled all of those issues for me. We were being charged a lot from the power company. He called them and figured out why we were being charged so much. He had the for sale sign up just a few days after we asked him to sell the home and then had his photographer come out within a day or two and take pictures of the property. He called me on a regular basis to update me on how many people had been shown our condo and what their feedback was on our home. He is pleasant, kind, patient and never makes you feel like you are bothering him. He welcomes your calls and questions. He is great and I will definitely use him again in the future!”
★★★★★“Very helpful!! Great guy...He really knows what he is doing! I learned a lot from him on how to sell homes. We was very knowledgable and really knew his stuff. I would highly recommend him. High integrity and honest.”
★★★★★“Robert is a very professional Realtor specializing in local area real estate, commercial properties, and vacation homes. He is a tireless worker with an attention to detail that is truly astounding. He's also truly "lock-step" with today's technology in offering a comprehensive customer satisfaction experience that often starts thousands of miles away on a laptop or tablet, commences with paperless documentation throughout, and terminates with shiny new keys and a smile. Wonderful experience!”
★★★★★“Mr. Bolar really knows my market, set a great price, and my home sold right away!
Our family was hoping to relocate to a different state and we had concerns about moving twice. Our home sold we were able to get to our new home without having to do this twice. It was refreshing to work with someone who cared about us and have us feedback along the way. Robert looked over our home gave us suggestions that would help it sell and then created a plan. We could not be more pleased with our agent.”
★★★★★“Robert was very helpful assisting me in finding my home, as the buying agent and he did a good job for me. He knows the property values in the area and was helpful with an offering price, the inspection and closing.”
★★★★★“Wonderful realtor who listens to your needs and finds the house to match! He is very helpful and does not pressure you in any way. He is punctual and quick to return calls. A all around great realtor to work with!”
★★★★★“"I've dealt with numerous Realtors over the years. Robert Bolar is the best of the best! He is truly The Lord's servant!”
★★★★★“Robert was awesome to work with. He's extremely professional and was obviously used to working with all of the latest tools. Looking at a lot of homes each day can be a little tedious but Robert made it fun. His knowledge of the area and the homes we looked at allowed us to make an informed decision. We've been in this new house for 2 1/2 years and have no regrets. If I needed a Realtor again, Robert would be my "go to" guy.”
“Robert guided us through the marketing and sales of our unique family property to help us receive multiple offers above what we expected. His knowledge, service and integrity were stellar. We have no reservations recommending him to friends and family.”
★★★★★“Robert's knowledge of the terrain and process make him a first choice if you need a realtor. He knows what is available, it's history, the owners and agents., and he has known them a long time. He really enjoys his work, and is an unfair edge if you want to buy that property that best fills your needs.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar helped my wife and me find and purchase a home in Pleasant View. He acted in our best interest throughout the entire process and never once pressured us. He went above and beyond to answer all our questions and make himself available to us. While Robert was on vacation, my wife and I found a home that we fell in love with and were ready to put an offer on. When we showed him the listing, he expressed concern that it was overpriced, overbuilt for the area, and located on a busy street. When we found the home that we ended up buying, he explained to us why it was not only a good house but a great investment. There aren’t many people who I’ve done business with that I can recommend with 100% confidence but I absolutely can—and do—with Robert.”
★★★★★“I am very glad we used Robert to help us find a home. He led us away from several homes we were interested in that were poor investments even though it would have been easier for him to simply close a deal quickly. In the end, he was able to negotiate an excellent deal on a gorgeous property for us. We value his honesty, negotiation capabilities, and tremendous expertise. Robert was recommended to us and we will now be passing that recommendation on to others.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar was our real estate agent when we purchased our beautiful new home in November 2014. He did an excellent job and was always very quick to return calls and answer questions. He is a very knowledgeable agent and we would highly recommend him.”
★★★★★“Robert was great to work with. He made the experience from start to finish so simple. Robert was very helpful in explaining the steps in selling a house and kept me up to date on customer's reaction to the house showings! I would recommend Robert to anyone, he keeps you informed and up to date.”
★★★★★“Right from the start, Robert was very friendly and caring. We were impressed with his knowledge and experience. He always responded to our requests and questions quickly and professionally. We would definitely seek his help again.”
★★★★★“Robert does a great job in handling his transactions in a very professional manner. As complex as some transactions can be, his able to bring his years of experience that he has and the right people to the transaction, so the deal can get done quickly and efficiently. He has always met the needs of his clients and is dedicated to their satisfaction.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar became a friend as well as an agent in helping us with three real estate transactions, in addition to taking an inordinate amount of time to help us look at numerous opportunities that never developed into concrete transactions. We have and will continue to steer family and friends to him for assistance with their real estate needs.”
★★★★★“Mr Bolar is an industry expert from both the inventory, service and technology aspect of the business. He is a committed professional that is not satisfied until happiness with your new home is achieved. I recommend him without reservation for all your purchase of relocation needs.”
★★★★★“Robert knows North Ogden better than anyone I know. He is very professional and because this is his full-time employment, highly available. He was very honest with us regarding what we needed to do to improve the impression our home made on potential buyers. He understands the law and easily directed us through the selling process. We referred my mother-in-law to him and he was so good with her. Ultimately, he recommended she not put her home up for sale--obviously costing him a commission--but helping her to be in the best situation possible.”
★★★★★“I've been dealing with Robert the past seven years and appreciate his professionalism, knowledge and friendliness even when dealing in stressful situations. I would recommend him to anyone.”
★★★★★“I have worked closely with Robert on transactions for clients we have both serviced. Robert is a true professional, not only ad a realtor but as a person. Robert treats each person with the highest level of service possible, he spends the time with each person to help them achieve the goal they are seeking. He is always on time and early. He is 100% genuine with everyone. Robert truly cares for each client to have the results but will only do it within the boundaries that are ethical. Robert knows real estate and he knowshow to use the law when the time calls for it. This makes having him as your agent very good. There are people that are very cunningin real estate transactions that don't understand the law. They try to set traps on clients and on agents and that only comes back to hurt themselves. Robert is who you need on your team.”
★★★★★“Robert paid attention to my needs and wants in a home. He was always willing to show a home to me at my convenience. He found a home for me that was perfect and we closed the deal. He also sold the home I was already in and got top price.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar was absolutely great to work with. There were several times when we decided to go a direction that we didn't think he was going to love, but he rolled with the punches and even encouraged us to do what we thought was best. Even when the time came for us to pull the house from the market, he was right there with us encouraging us. When the time comes for us to put the house up again, we'll be going back to Robert Bolar.”
★★★★★“Robert was really great at valuing our house where it needed to be. He is incredibly knowledgeable in the real estate field and gave us a good comparative analysis that helped us make a decision to list our home. In the mean time, he searched with us to find the perfect home for our family and helped us know what the right timing would be to both sell our home and make an offer on the new one. I think that everything would have worked out just about perfect had our buyers not backed out. We'll be sure to use him again in the near future. Honest, trustworthy, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone interested in getting it done right.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar was extremely resourceful during the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. He knows Utah real estate very well, and he definitely represented our best interests during all negotiations. He was always easy to get a hold of and quick to respond to any questions or inquiries we had. He helped us make arrangements for the home inspection as well as to have the house cleaned before we signed papers. He even let us use his enclosed and flatbed trailers to move all of our boxes and furniture, saving us a lot of money in moving van rental fees. Robert was very professional and we would not only recommend him to a friend, but we also plan to use him again if we ever have real estate transaction needs.”
★★★★★“Robert was amazing to work with. We moved out of our home to another state while trying to sell it. Since we were out of state Robert went up to our home and did things for us to help it sell. One of those was installing stairs off our back porch. It was time out of his busy schedule and they looked amazing! I would highly recommend Robert and his team to anyone in need of selling their home.”
★★★★★“Robert has helped us in both buying and selling homes and properties. His knowledge of the local real estate market is excellent and he is well connected with other realtors as well as with city and civic leaders. I would highly recommend him as a realtor”
★★★★★“Robert was referred to me by my realtor in Washington State when I moved to Utah in 2010. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional to work with. If I were to move again, he's my guy! We looked at a lot of "short sale" properties as well as "regular" existing properties. He was able to give us pros and cons about the neighborhoods, schools, and history of the areas that we looked in. He was able to answer all of our questions. He is also a bit on the "techie" side and was able to show us property maps and other data online with his iPad as we looked at different properties. It was a great experience to work with Robert.”
★★★★★“"Robert has been tremendously helpful in helping my wife and me purchase our first home. Throughout the process Robert has seen that our interest in the purchase comes first. He has negotiated with other Realtors in a professional manner in behalf of our best interests. Robert's knowledge of the real estate market coupled with his honesty and desire to help people sets him above others. The process of putting offers on homes has been so easy because Robert is well prepared and organized. He has explained things pertaining to the contract so that there are no surprises and frustrations that often times are involved with contracts. I have spoken to many agents but none have been as helpful as Robert. I highly recommend you use Robert Bolar when you want to sell or buy a home."”
★★★★★“Robert is an outstanding! He helped me move from Alexandria, VA to Ogden,UT then when my military assignment was over, he helped me sell my house in the middle of the Christmas holiday season. The house was sold in almost no time and I even made a profit from the sale. Since I travel OFTEN, Robert was able to take care of everything on line and was always available to help with any questions I had. He is very professional and I look forward to working with him again when I move back to UT.”
★★★★★“Robert worked extremely hard to market our home. I was amazed at the number of showings he arranged and the effort he expended which resulted in the sale of our home. He then orchestrated everything from the sale through its closing and to the purchase of a perfect home for us in another city. I have never had an agent work as hard for us before and I can, without reservation, recommend Robert for anyone's real estate needs. He is knowledgeable, thorough, and does what he says he will do...every time.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar is a great agent. He always makes you feel like you are his number one priority throughout the process of purchasing or selling a home. I would recommend Robert to anyone wishing to buy or sell their home.”
★★★★★“We had Robert help us with the sell of our home and the buying of our new one. He used his knowledge and skills to help bring in potential buyers and helped us negotiate a fair price for us.”
★★★★★“Robert was everything and more. He helped me complete the sale of my home in a timely manner, was very aware of small things to increase the visibility of our home and offer expert advice on how best to market our home with a price we were so happy with. It was a pleasure to work with Robert!”
★★★★★“I have know Robert, since 2006. Robert has sold 2 house for me. I have also bought 2 house through Robert. Robert is a great person to work with and I appreciate that he continued to work with even though I can be difficult. Robert is honest and I have relied on him to help make my decisions. I highly recommend Robert.”
★★★★★“My husband's job was relocated from Alabama to Utah at the end of 2011. We happened upon Robert while doing on-line home searches, and this was truly a happy circumstance. Robert became our go-to person for our questions, concerns and he simply provided valuable assistance, particularly with his knowledge of neighborhoods and houses on the market. He wanted to help us find the right house for our needs. He even asked for photos of our AL house so that he could see what we liked in a home, as well as to better know us through our living style. Robert helped us find a house, and within one week we had a contract. If it is necessary for us to move again, we would not hesitate to list our home with Robert Bolar.”
★★★★★“Rob Bolar is simply there best there is in Utah real estate. We have worked with Rob in both buying and selling homes. He is knowledgeable in all facets of the real estate business, knows the market, and has high credibility with his colleagues and home builders.”
★★★★★“Great experience. He is quite knowledgeable and hardworking. He is easy to get ahold of. I would recommend him to anyone needing representation in a real estate transaction.”
★★★★★“Oh yes, I was in somewhat of a hurry to buy in North Ogden a few years ago. I think Robert showed us everything from east to west, north to south in our price range. We found our home in Fawn Hollow and the Brigham realtor had accidently posted a number that was no longer working. Robert found him, got us the price we wanted and we are still here. He's also a great human being. That is clear to us from our interaction with him and his dedication to family and the community. Dan and RaNae Jessop/North Ogden”
★★★★★“Great to work with! We bought a bank home and the transaction went smoothly. great communication and always professional. Will do business again. And defiantly will refer him to friends, neighbors, clients and whom ever else who is looking into buying or sell or renting a home.”
★★★★★“Many real restate agents work hard to get listings because they feel it is easier than helping buyers to find homes. We interviewed a number of them and found that they had no marketing plan other than listing our home and perhaps holding open houses. Robert was unique in that he had a plan, knew the buyers most likely to be interested in our home and how to reach them. His plan, complimented by an extensive network of contacts, produced very good offers within the first week after listing. We expected that it would take about three months to sell the property. It took a week and a fairly short escrow. Also helping to obtain offers was right pricing. Robert's suggested list price was spot on, thanks in no small part to his knowledge of the community and previous sales. Robert also helped us to find the home when we purchased it. He took the time to get to know us and our needs and we found just what we wanted in record time. We thoroughly recommend Robert to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. His ability to build and maintain relationships, a key to success in the real estate business, is unrivaled.”
★★★★★“Robert is excellent. Takes the time to understand our needs in house searches. His expertise is above all, knowledge of the market and helps to identify potential issues that we overlook in our search of the right house.”
★★★★★“We bought a house a couple years ago with Robert. The whole process was very simple, we had an offer in on a house a few days after it went on the market, and were moved in by the end of the month. He even helped us get about 10k off the asking price. Very patience, and very thorough!”
★★★★★“He has listed two houses for me and has been extremely honest and professional in everything. He listed my mother-in-laws house during an extremely tight market and kept us informed every step of the way. He is inolved in our community supporting activities and organizations that help our community to be a better place in which to raise our children. He is knowlegable about the Utah market and the local markets in the cities and towns in our state.”
★★★★★“Buying with Robert Bolar was fast and easy. All documents were signed and processed electronic which saved both of us time. He was very helpful and informed of market and areas we were considering. He is quick to get back to with questions or concerns. He is honest in his negotiations and works hard to achieve the results you desire. I have bought two homes with Robert and have never been left disappointed.”
★★★★★“Robert Bolar is very caring in what he does. He is very personable and will do anything he can to help someone find what they are looking for. He will make sure you experience is as smooth and easy as it can be. Robert is the type of person to make things happen, and make sure things get done. I highly recommend Robert Bolar to anyone who is in the process of looking to buy or sell their home.”
★★★★★“Robert was a great help in helping us find a home and working through the process through closing. There were a lot of issues with the seller and Robert was extremely diligent in getting them resolved.”
★★★★★“Robert is well known in the community as being highly knowledgeable and responsive to his customers' needs. He is keenly aware of his market and is focused on working for the best interests of his clients. He is personable and easy to communicate with. He has been extremely helpful in answering our questions and preparing the necessary paperwork for selling our home. He is someone I trust and am glad to have a resource like him in our community.”
★★★★★“I worked with Robert on a corporate relocation project. He was nothing short of remarkable in his attention to detail and customer service orientation. Robert went above and beyond. Our employees felt well taken care of throughout the process. I highly recommend Robert!”
★★★★★“ROBERT WORKS TIRELESSLY FOR HIS CLIENTS. HE IS VERY FRIENDLY AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT REAL ESTATE. HIS HONESTY AND INTEGRITY ARE UNQUESTIONED. WORKING WITH HIM IS A VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE. I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO HAVE HIM SELL ANOTHER HOME FOR US AGAIN.”
