Doug was the second real estate company we contacted. The first, in short, was pushy and had a different vision than we did. We happened by Doug after contacting him about a home he was the listing agent for. After our first meet-n-greet we decided to sell our home and purchase a new one through him. He was very calm, cool, and collective, and went above and beyond in our first meeting, bringing with him various comparisons in our immediate area and on top of that broke our home statistics down by city, zip code, type of home, etc. We are a data driven couple, so that was wonderful. He made himself available at essentially any time during the week, as late as we needed, and on weekends especially. I don't recall the number of houses we looked at, from Troy, MO to Chesterfield, St. Charles, St. Peters, and their surrounding areas, but he was patient with each one, didn't rush us in our search, and would give us little tidbits of information about each home that wasn't necessarily listed, something that lead his 20+ years in the industry to shine through. After looking at too many houses to remember, we decided to build, and he couldn't have been more supportive with our decision. Doug made it clear that anytime we wanted or needed him there for anything, during the pre-construction meeting, or any time that we met with the builder for that matter, that he would be there. We wanted him there, and he showed up. Additionally, he was there THE ENTIRE DAY for our closing. We were supposed to close early one morning, but due to technical difficulties didn't end up closing until around 5:30PM, about as late as one could, and he was there the entire time. He truly provided the best real estate service we've ever experienced, and this is our third home that we've owned across the United States. Working with the Chad Wilson Group, specifically Doug, was a wonderful experience. Doug has our strongest endorsement to be your real estate professional!

Doug Howell was our agent who helped us find a house. We were moving here from Kansas City so we didn't know a lot about the different areas. Doug was very informative and went the extra mile for us in helping us find the right place in our price range. We had some problems to work out with some water damage and water drainage problems in the back. He worked with us, the seller's realtor and the HOA to get things worked out. He even went to the board meeting of the HOA to get further information for us. We also appreciated that he wasn't pushy and he let us take our time in looking at each house. We would recommend him to our friends!

We started the search for our house early last year and found Doug to be on our side at all times.We explained him our needs and he was able to get all the correct houses lined up. We saw lot of houses new and old and Doug was able to get all of them scheduled in quick time. He was very informative about various aspects of house. We ended up buying a new construction home and again he was on our side from start to end. It was an absolute pleasure to work with him. More that an agent, I think he is more of a friend now. I would highly recommend him for any service

Wow! This was our first experience selling a home. What could have been an overwhelming and intimidating situation was actually so smooth thanks to the teams insight and efficiency. Every single person was professional and exceeded our expectations. I especially appreciated Doug taking the time to walk us through the process and answering our endless newbie questions. He was honest and straightforward with us- a trait we’ve noted to be lacking in this profession.

My son's house needed to be sold due to health problems and we had the great fortune of Doug Howell as our realtor. We found Doug while my wife and I were in the market for our current home. We had a different agent and Doug was the seller's agent for what would become our current home. We were so impressed with our brief conversation with Doug (the seller's agent) those years ago when we bought our home that when we needed a realtor, it was a no brainer. We picked him to help sell my son's house and it was the simplest and best real-estate experience my wife or I have ever had. He's a class act with years and years of experience personally and in his family. His level of competence, professionalism, ethic, and personability is a rare find and we couldn't recommend him more highly.

I've had a pleasure of working with Doug Howell on my townhome purchase. Given that I was transitioning from out of state with very stringent timeline and limited availability to view homes, Doug has been nothing but accommodating and understanding, and available & responsive to my family's needs. There were a number of specific items on our wish list which were somewhat complicated, again with limitations on timeline. However, Doug was able to meet most of our demands (not fully because our wants were very complicated). In addition, he came up with alternative listings in close proximity and comparable features. The showings were efficiently scheduled, covering all appropriate points and features, and not afraid to share his thoughts as to whether the unit was a good buy or not. I took this as that he is not quick to make sale, but had us in mind as a valued client. For this I new we were in good hand. After the showings were done, we had a lengthy discussion and additional ones over the phone and email throughout the week. Finally, selection was made and final offer placed. During the loan and closing process, Doug has provided us with insightful recommendations and guided us through all the little ins and outs of the purchasing process which we found very helpful. In summary, out of all the home purchasing experiences I had with past agents/brokers, I would please Doug Howell at the very top. He is a wonderful person and experienced agent who I would work again in future sales or purchases in the St. Louis area. When you meet him and work with him, you will know that this review is an honest and accurate review. And for aforementioned reasons, I recommend Doug Howell to anyone in the market.

From start to finish agent Doug Howell and The Chad Wilson Group far exceeded our expectations. They made the sale of our home and the purchase of our new build a totally positive experience. We highly recommend them, they are top notch!!!

Doug and his team went above and beyond what I could have expected for my first home buying experience. He was very knowledgable about the market and is the main reason I won the bid on my NEW HOME. I apperciate the dedication and passion he has for his career.

From the beginning search for our dream home, Doug Howell was the biggest factor in our results. Most impressed by his availability to arrange viewings of the listings at the last minute and was really enjoyable to work with. I would recommend Doug and his expertise in your search to sell or buy in the future. We are very pleased and fortunate to have found "Our Happy Place".

I had Doug for buying my first home! He was incredibly patient! He showed us MANY homes and did it with enthusiasm! He helped point out things in homes that were helpful to see, he had great availability and always responded promptly. He helped me figure out what to offer on homes and provided great guidance. Choose Doug for all your home buying and selling needs!

This was our first time buying a home and Doug was AMAZING! He was patient and really listened to our wants and needs. He thoroughly explained everything and always responded to our calls, texts and emails in such a timely manner. We can’t say enough good things. We highly recommend him and the Chad Wilson group!

Doug is great at details. Went the extra mile thru put the transaction. specifically,went to city of St Charles for information needed for bldg. Inspection. Very friendly guy.

When it comes to selling or buying a house, you always hear horror stories or last minute things being forgotten or overlooked. Doug made selling my home so incredibly easy and was readily available every step of the way. I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, caring individual. He and his team were 100% on top of things and listened to and addressed any concerns I had. I would definitely recommend Doug and his team for your real estate needs. You will not be disappointed.

If it was not for Doug we would not of found our dream home which we are living in right now. My wife and I praise Jesus for allowing to take care and be able to purchase our beautiful home. Doug's as a relator had all the knowledge and contacts we needed to get the home dreamed of.

Doug was an absolute pleasure to work with! He was incredibly patient and took all the time we needed to discuss/understand the process. He was super responsive and was always willing to go the extra mile! I would highly recommend him to anyone!

We highly recommend Doug Howell based on our experience with him and his team. My family and I moved to Missouri from another state and had no real knowledge of the area, real estate market here, schools, etc, and Doug helped us to feel comfortable and confident throughout our home-buying process. He was available in evenings and weekends when we needed some schedule flexibility, and was just so pleasant to work with. He knows the area and was so helpful in guiding us through different tactics for offers and how to navigate through inspections, request to remedy, etc. As a bonus, he's just a great guy, and my kiddos loved him so much they still ask where Doug is and when he'll visit. Thanks for making this process so easy and fun.

My husband and I just purchased a home in Lincoln County through Doug with the Chad Wilson Group. Doug went out of his way to show us numerous homes before we finally found the perfect one. We could always count on him for quick response times, honest advise and going the extra mile. Doug has helped sell/buy homes for my parents and siblings. My husband and I were so glad we were able to work with him as well. It’s hard to believe he was our real estate agent because after this experience he feels more like family!

Doug was a fantastic person to work with. He made the process simple and easy. He was always available anytime we had questions all the way to closing on both houses and even beyond. He will definitely be the person we call when we sell again.

We worked with Doug Howell and he was amazing! He made it easy to schedule viewings and was quick to respond. We always felt informed and like he was knowledgeable about the home buying process and the areas we looked in. We would 100% recommend him to our friends and family!

From the beginning to the end the Chad Wilson group was superb! This is my fourth purchase and never have I had so many different people to work within the home buying process. This actually made it easier even though at first I was like I can't keep up with all these people! I soon realized each person was responsible for a different phase of the home buying process. I trusted Doug with helping us make decisions and I felt very comfortable with his suggestions. Lisa Peirick was very helpful, available and so very pleasant and nice! I would highly recommend this team! Through all phases they were there to help.

Doug is the best Realtor I have ever met! Helped me to buy my first home.

Doug Howell was my buyer's agent. Doug showed me houses in Feb. of 2022 when I visited my sister and sent me numerous listings while I was in the process of selling my home in Oregon. He continued to help me when I moved to MO to stay with my sister in late November. He helped me find the wonderful villa I had been looking for. He is still keeping in touch and made the buying process very easy for me. Thank you Doug and your assistant in closing, Laura. I would highly recommend Doug when buying or selling a home. He is very kind, supportive and always available to show homes. Thanks again to Doug and the Chad Wilson Group.

Doug was simply amazing during our process. Doug was so knowledgeable about the other agent and how to navigate difficult issues that happened prior to closings. He was always available for question or concerns we had throughout the process. The team was great and very patient with us as they checked on us quarterly for the last few years as we took a break during covid. They gave us 5 star service from beginning to the end. We appreciate Doug and we consider him more than an agent to us but a friend.
