Melbourne Florida Realty Reviews

"The average time to sell a home was around 3 months... Ben got me multiple offers and we sold my home within 11 days for full price."

Laura Siegemund

Seller

I have worked with Ben on three separate purchases in 2021, 2022, and 2025 and each of them were spectacular and confident experiences under Ben's leadership. No one understands the greater Melbourne market better than Ben does. He asks important questions to understand the priorities of his clients and cuts through the clutter of properties to shine a light on the ones that meet or exceed those priorities. No one understands negotiation and the legal process better than Ben does. He bases recommendations for offers based on research and documented market dynamics... no winging it with Ben. No one understands marketing strategies better than Ben does and his graduate degree in Marketing benefits his buyers and sellers alike. My next transaction with Ben will be a sale later this year and there is only one agent I will work with. When you've found the finest agent in Brevard, nothing less will do with such an important transaction.

As a buyer in an unfamiliar location, I needed help every step of the way, and Ben was always there to assist- always patient and on top of every detail. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I never would have found this wonderful home without his guidance and I'm ever so grateful to him.

Ben was excellent to work with. He guided us through the choosing of our home with great knowledge of the area and was excellent when it came to negotiations and closing of the home. He is very attentive and responsive and was always willing to talk with us and work to resolve any issue. I would highly recommend him and I don’t think you will find a better realtor in the area. Thank you Ben.

Ben is such a pleasure to work with! My husband and I made the best decision when we chose him to represent us when we bought a house in Titusville Florida. He is very professional from the initial email, to taking us around when we looked for homes, to writing up the offer and keeping us informed in every step the purchase process! 5 out of 5 stars!!!

If you're looking for a realtor who goes the extra mile then Ben is a must-have on your home search team! We first learned about Ben by coming across his YouTube channel describing the Brevard County area and the differences between Melbourne and Palm Bay plus all the amenities in the area. We live in Oregon and plan to relocate to Melbourne next year so the info in the channel was invaluable for us so we contacted Ben for his services. He understood our plans and worked with us every step of the way towards finding our home. With the market being as competitive as it is, it took us several trips between March and August but in the end, we not only found a primary home but a rental place that we closed on before even going on market. We were so impressed with Ben that my sister-in-law used him to purchase their own place in Titusville. Whether you're local or looking to relocate, Ben can easily adjust and goes the extra mile to ensure your real estate needs are met. I would definitely recommend contacting Ben first if you're looking for a realtor because I assure you that you will not be disappointed!

We purchased this condo all the way from Germany and Ben coordinated everything to where we didn’t have to do anything other than e-sign the papers and didn’t even have to leave the country in order to close. We had a wonderful experience working with him. Of course I highly recommend Ben.

Dorothy B.

Ben completely exceeded all my expectations, and I was amazed at his knowledge and experience. I appreciate that he extended such effort to secure a great deal on my behalf. I could not have asked for a better real estate agent. Thank you Ben!

Hello, my name is Cheryl. I'm writing this note for anyone who is wanting to buy or sell a home. I would highly recommend Benjamin Bodenschatz. He is very pleasant and nice to work with. He's hard working, honest, and very helpful in finding what you are looking for. I would be very comfortable recommending him to anyone who needs to sell or buy a home.

My wife and i are both nurses, we moved to Melbourne Florida last summer right in the middle of Covid 19. We saw Ben's videos on youtube and were impressed with the information he gave and how genuine and trustworthy he appeared to be. I'm very pleased to say he was every bit as good as he seemed and more. He always returned our calls promptly and always either had the answers we needed or found them out for us. He was awesome! He even sent us a monthly box of treats from around the world months after we closed on our house. We love sitting down with our kids each month when the box arrives to sample the cakes and candies from other countries. I would definitely recommend Ben to anyone looking for an honest, experienced, hardworking realtor that cares about their clients.

Ben was exceptional throughout the entire process. From start to finish, he guided us every step of the way with professionalism, expertise, & genuine care. He went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. What truly sets Ben apart is how much he cares about his clients and their success. We always felt supported, informed, and confident in our decisions. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Viera or anywhere along the Space Coast.

Jasmine S.

I had been looking for the right Realtor for awhile to help guide me thru the home purchasing process. I needed someone who was knowledgeable about the surrounding Treasure/Space Coast area and I had the pleasure of finding Ben from YouTube. From the moment I called him he asked all the right questions and we were able to narrow down my search criteria. I was living in a different state and he sent me the best listings! He did all the work scheduling all the showings and finally helping me to find my forever home. He made sure all the paperwork/inspections were in order and called often to keep me updated. The whole process was easy and smooth. If your looking for a knowledgeable and friendly Realtor then look no further! Thank you Ben.

Mike R.

We started looking into selling our home and reached out to Ben, and I’m really glad we did. He’s been incredibly helpful—taking the time to walk us through every detail and making sure we fully understand the process. What really stands out is his marketing strategy; it’s thoughtful, thorough, and clearly goes beyond what most agents offer. I’d absolutely recommend Ben to anyone considering selling their home.

Macy E.

Ben helped us find and purchase what has truly become our dream home on the Space Coast. From the very beginning, he understood exactly what we were looking for and guided us with great care and professionalism throughout the entire process. Everything was handled smoothly and efficiently, and we always felt well informed and supported. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely listens and makes the journey to your dream home feel easy, Ben is an excellent choice—especially in Viera and the surrounding Space Coast area.

Marie G.

Ben helped us purchase multiple rental properties on the Space Coast. He kept everything completely organized, handled all the logistics flawlessly and kept us in the loop every step of the way. If you want a real estate agent to help you buy or sell homes in Viera or the surrounding Space Coast areas, he is the best.

Christian W.

As we started our home search in the Space Coast area, we found Ben through his YouTube videos. When we scheduled to meet Ben, we found him to be a complete professional, knowledgable, flexible and patient. We purchased our house and he led us through each step, every detail. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a home in the Melbourne/Merritt Island/Viera area (and beyond). If you want someone who will listen, find options, and who is knowledgeable in this area, Ben is your "go to" person.

Mariella M.

I was moving from the west coast to the east coast from California to Florida. It was a really big move! I spent a lot of time looking for the right real estate agent. I spoke to many real estate agents from different areas in Florida. Finally decided on Ben and I'm really glad I did! He's very knowledgeable, thorough and patient. I found we had a lot in common. I really hate to say that I'm extremely picky but, I am. Ben was able to help me with all my requirements!! We looked at many houses and finally decided on a beautiful house in Sebastian. Found the house, and closed the house in less than 30 days. I don't think I could have done it without Ben's help! Thanks Ben

Frances R.

I have firsthand knowledge of how the industry works, so I know a top agent when I see one. I have no hesitation in recommending Ben Bodenschatz for all your real estate needs in the Space Coast area of Florida.
