Testimonials
“Ben was a real pleasure to work with, we approached Ben to sell our Commercial Property and he took the task on with vigor and the energy we have not encountered before with a real estate agent. Within a day of the site visit and meeting, Ben had professional photos taken and had the property listed online. He truly knows how to sell property and it was the guidance and confidence he had in the market that resulted in a quick sale. This is a major accomplishment with selling in the Commercial market. He provided us with guidance and was assertive in advising us to accept the offer made on our property and was knowledgeable every step of the way. He is very professional, easy to work with and never avoided our questions or concerns. You should not hesitate to reach out to him when selling either a residential or commercial property. We will continue to work with Ben with all of our Real Estate ventures!”

“It was only after receiving Ben’s periodic newsletters via email, that I decided to retain his services as a real estate agent…and it turned out to be an extremely wise decision! Given that I travel extensively, the service I required warranted flexibility, constant communication, and of course, professionalism. Ben portrayed all of these required traits in abundance, with the added bonus of a wonderful personality. He managed to liaise with my architect to address all minor outstanding issues in facilitating the completion of the property development and then subsequently closing the sales transaction without the need for my presence on Island! I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to anyone else, and look forward to retaining his services for any future sales transactions that I wish to expedite.”

“Ben did a fantastic job in helping us rent and then eventually sell our condominium. He lined up a number of prospects and quickly narrowed it down to the buyer that was willing to meet our full asking price. The entire process couldn’t have gone more smoothly. We have other real estate projects we are working on, and will look to Ben to help us navigate successfully through them.”
Hugh Barit
“It’s a busy business with many players. Each player brings their own gel. A buyer needs TRUST and that covers a massive compass. Ben was that compass and that’s the value! Thank you Ben!”

“AMAZING! What an amazing experience we had with Ben. When making a choice to sell your home you've lived in for years may not always be an easy one, however, from our first interaction with Ben this made our sad tears go away and the tears of joy overflow. Ben had shown nothing but professionalism and even had our first point of contact on a Sunday. This had blown us away. He is easy to talk to and gives you solid knowledgeable advice which helps you to make the best decision. The one thing that really stood out to us was his "Communications" from start to finish, this is always the best recipe for all things in life. Ben a "HUGE "Thank You for being our agent. You are truly amazing. Thank you Thank you Thank you. Continue to make people happy weather they’re selling a home or purchasing their first home!

Nina & Chris Ebbin
“It is refreshing when we deal with people who have the level of integrity, professionalism and personality that you possess. It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with you. Our only regret is that we didn't have more houses to you to sell!”
Sharon Donawa
“Ben did a truly amazing job for us in selling our home right away! His communication and professionalism throughout the process was impeccable. He listened to all our feedback and made a point to answer our questions quickly. Selling a home is often very stressful, but this time around we felt extremely supported and stress-free throughout the journey.”
Melissa and Charlie Judd
“Can’t say good enough things about Ben and his abilities in real estate. Having done 3 transactions in 2 years both as vendor and purchaser I would not use any other Agent. He understands his clients’ needs.“
Jane Wright
“We could summarize our experience with Ben Rego as exceptional, in all aspects from start to finish! Our situation was a bit unique as we needed to sell a condominium prior to purchasing our new home. One of Ben's talents is definitely strategy, he is forward thinking, solution driven and he really thought outside the box. With his help we got there in the end, it just looked a little different than we initially thought! Buying a new home is fairly stressful, and there were so many moving parts. Ben's communication was timely and in the right format for our needs. We aren't sure he ever sleeps! Ben really takes the time to understand his client's needs and develops a genuine relationship. This allows him to find the perfect home for us!“
Giles Spurling
“The value of a buyers agent (Ben Rego) during my closing process was imperative in securing my dream waterfront home and particularly important in a very active real estate market. As a first time home owner, I had no idea of the intricacies involved in closing, and Ben provided excellent advice from the very outset. Ben is highly knowledgeable, responsive and an experienced realtor with an impressive track record of getting the deal done. I look forward to working with Ben for any and every future real estate sale and purchase in the future!“
Elizabeth Blankendal
“Working with Ben is a game changing experience in the world of real estate. What we found most impressive, and actually surprisingly so, is that he truly does work for the client for their best interests. So many other agents, I have found, care more about double ending deals and getting just their buyers in first, yet this is never to the clients best interest if a seller really understood what their agent was truly doing and not giving the entire market an equal opportunity at purchasing. Ben, perhaps due to the volume of sales he does making this not a critical selfish aim, and also his experience/reputation, continues to do the right thing in the most transparent and honorable ways, and for that we really appreciate working with you.“
Simpson Family
“Hi Ben, I hope you are well mate! Just wanted to say a huge thank you from Rebecca and I. Working with you has been an absolute pleasure. There were ups and downs along the way and you were there to guide us through it painlessly. You were on the ball from day one of our meeting and have worked really hard to get the best price for our property. The countless showings you did, the endless messages you responded to right away was very much appreciated and made us feel very safe that you had everything under control. It is easy to see you are a go getter! All in all it has been an absolute pleasure to work with you and we will 100% be calling upon you for any future real estate business!“
Andrew and Rebecca Cottingham
“Ben, we wanted to thank you for your assistance initially evaluating selling versus renting options for our apartment. You gave us excellent advice before we even committed to using your service.
Subsequently you assisted us in preparing the apartment for rental and in a very short period of time found us a dream tenant. Throughout this process your fast response to our numerous email questions made us very comfortable. We are sure your rapport with the prospective Tenant brought the Lease to a swift conclusion. Thanks again!”
Robert and Pam Thomson
“The value Ben adds when he takes on a project is incredible. This year, he assisted my family and I with the sale of one property and the purchase of another. Had Ben not been in our corner for both transactions, I am not entirely convinced they both would have gone through as efficiently and effortlessly as they did. I would strongly encourage anyone thinking about buying, selling or renting their home to give Ben a call - you won’t be disappointed!”
Cameron Smith
“Hi Ben, after receiving your gift I felt compelled to reach out to express my gratitude. I often speak to my family and friends about how important customer service is, especially in Bermuda. Not just to me as the recipient but for the person who is offering it and delivering it. When done correctly I believe it can benefit both parties by creating great value and unforgettable experiences.
In our case, I must admit the level of service you provided throughout the process of assisting me in purchasing my first property was exceptional. You exceeded my already high expectations especially in regard to your professionalism, communication skills and engaging personality. As such, I’d like to give a special thank you to you for your service and thoughtful gift, as well as to your team at Rego Sotheby’s International Realty. This has truly been a great and memorable experience. I hope do business again with you in the future. Until then I sincerely wish you all the best!”
Aaron Nelson
“First off I want to say a HUGE thank you to Ben for the fantastic assistance he gave me in purchasing my first Bermuda home. I never expected the Process of purchasing a home in Bermuda to be so straightforward and relaxing even from afar while I am in the UK. Ben was very communicative from first contact all the way through to Closing. What I admire most about Ben is that no matter what issue presented itself he has a way to overcome it efficiently. His attention to detail and his professionalism is 2nd to none! Ben is a very busy man but irrespective of that, when I reached out to him he’d have a response to me ASAP. I couldn’t be more grateful to have worked with Ben & there is no doubt that Ben will go on to have a long successful careers in real estate for years to come. I will encourage anyone interested in property to sell, buy or rent to reach out to Ben, he is the Man!”

“We had such a positive selling experience with Ben. He was always well organized and very responsive. Ben was supportive, pleasant, professional and patient and made the challenges we faced easier to handle. We would definitely hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone!”
Jennifer Outerbridge-Smith & Anthony Smith
“What can I say….I have nothing but the highest recommendation for Ben! He is the epitome of professionalism, is personable, and has the market awareness and understanding to match. Great experience and I would highly recommend Ben to anyone. Well done Ben!”
Hon. R. Wayne Scott, JP
“We feared that selling QUICKSWOOD, our 105 year old home for the last 28 years would be difficult; we thought finding a new home would be even harder. Then we met Ben! Ben has real estate running through his veins. He is a consummate professional with the patience of Job and the style of Giorgio Armani. Ben navigated us through the market and quickly found us the perfect new home; he stayed with us every step of the way through the complex sale of QUICKSWOOD to a wonderful new family. In real estate, Ben’s the man!”
Joe and Josée Froncioni
“We were first time home buyers and Ben Rego was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process! He had showed us our forever home a year ago, and we ended going through a probate process. Ben was always updating us, checking up on us and very patient with all of our questions and concerns as we waited to close on the house. Ben was always reliable and very professional at all times. We would recommend anyone interested in purchasing their forever home to use Ben Rego, you will not be disappointed!”
Luis & Rio Tomaz
“Ben is absolutely terrific! We cannot remember the last time working with someone so professional, pleasant and efficient. He made the whole sales process virtually stress free. We look forward to our next opportunity!”
Kali & Azuree Williams
“Our home had been on the market for a while when we were fortunate to be introduced to Ben. He managed and successfully completed what was a complex sale of our property. It was true a pleasure to work with Ben, who remained a motivated and skilled professional throughout, balanced with a wonderful personality. Ben is the embodiment of patience, perseverance and positivity and we highly recommend him!”
Jonathan and Amanda Dodd
“Ben has such a special way about him, no matter the size of the task or the deal, he seems to “really” and truly connect with people, and is so knowledgeable and experienced that it put us at ease. For the amount of deals and clients we know he is constantly juggling, he literally makes us feel as though we’re his only clients. Always always available for us, always with such a positive attitude and solutions, and he never gets frustrated. Bermuda is lucky to have such a trailblazing agent and overall person who really goes above and beyond in terms of service, communication and follow through. Wow is all we can say – thank you Ben!”
The Hansen Family
“THANK YOU BEN! I just want you to know we have sung your praises to anyone and everyone and I hope that gets you some extra business. I’ve not met *anyone* else, seriously, who has your level of professionalism while still being easy breezy to chat with. You’re definitely an asset to your company, I think all of Bermuda knows that! You will 100% be our first stop when we next need the assistance of a true real estate professional again in the future.”
Joseph & Autumn Hooks
“Whomever is reading this and you are brand new to the whole buying a house thing, Ben is your man. For someone as experienced as he is, he makes both seasoned buyers and brand new buyers feel completely comfortable and at ease to speak with him anytime to help guide us throughout the process. My fiancée and I approached Ben to buy our first house and the process couldn’t have been easier. I thought that it would be a much scarier process, but Ben makes it very easy and comfortable. Thank you, Ben!”
Jono & Chiara Dill
“Ben did an amazing job in finding us our property, he had a very welcoming, warm and professional approach which made the whole process incredibly seamless. Our questions were answered immediately, we received updates constantly throughout the process and Ben went over and above at every opportunity to make sure all parties were happy and informed. Ben is clearly very hard working and given his overall approach, manner and competence will no doubt be extremely successful for many years to come. I want to thank Ben for all his efforts and would not hesitate to reach out in the future if needed!”
Kevin & Rebecca Ronaldson
“We have worked with Ben on both the sale and rental of our property in Grape Bay. Ben’s approach from the outset was incredibly professional and we loved the way he went the extra mile with a promotional video and aerial footage to market the property. Ben was incredibly communicative during the process, providing frequent updates so we always knew what was going on and when we reached offer stage he managed the interactions with the different buyers and their agents very effectively. In all, Ben was a pleasure to work with and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for both Sales and Rental listings. We would certainly work with him again in the future!”
Stafford Lowe & Laura Farge-Lowe
“It took Ben literally one day to get our house rented. The process was easy and Ben made sure to explain each step clearly and precisely. We are thrilled with our new tenants and very grateful that everything has worked out so well. Thank you Ben!”
Denis & Roxi Owen

“Ben is currently working with me to find my first house, it took him no time at all to understand my style and what I look for in a home. Ben is easy to talk to and at the same time very professional. His understanding of the market and client’s requirements has made this a pleasant experience!”

“Very professional, trustworthy, extremely knowledgeable, friendly and reliable service!”
Christopher Vanderhyden
“I can’t recommend Ben Rego and his team enough! He truly goes above and beyond no matter the value of the property he works so hard to deliver a speedy and exceptional service! We have used Ben as a rental agent. We have used Ben to sell a property for us & also to source a property for us! A great all round real estate agent! He had our property sold while other agents hadn’t even got us a viewing!”
Kieran & Jolene Campbell
“Ben started showing us houses a few years ago, back then we weren’t quite sure what we were looking for, but we knew that we were going to be picky as this would be our biggest purchase ever! Over the last two years Ben has patiently shown us a wide range of homes, ever encouraging and always positive as we continued on the search for our perfect first home. Ben is extremely professional and knowledgeable about the local market, and we gained great insight about what we were truly looking for in our first home. Always available by phone or email, Ben works hard to make the process as seamless and enjoyable as possible. When we found the one, Ben coached us though all aspects of the purchase process, from making an offer, to contract wording, and helped calm our nerves until the deal closed. We couldn’t be more thrilled with our new home, and the experience we had working with Ben truly made buying our first home a joy! A million thanks and we can highly recommend Ben for all your real estate needs!”
Chelsea Trott & Cameron Madeiros
“A sum above! We thoroughly appreciated Ben’s unconditional professionalism regardless of our budget and his genuine enthusiasm. You will never encounter a person more responsive to emails and punctual. What a guy! Ben can relate to anyone, and makes the process as smooth as possible. Keep that same energy and never change. Thanks so much Ben.”
Dominique Nannette & Rhiannon Fox
“Ben, is the most infectiously positive and responsive agent I have ever dealt with…and I have dealt with many. He not only knows the business but is a creative thinker with a can do attitude…A cut above and a real team player.”
Andrew Outerbridge
“This bie gets things done quick and easy for me. He reminds me of a blend of his grandfather’s Harold Gibbons and Benny Rego; damn good genes. He made selling my house on Shore Lane in Tucker’s Town a breeze.”
Gary Lamb
“It was our absolute pleasure and privilege to work with Ben. My husband and I had outgrown our quaint cottage and needed a larger space for our rapidly expanding family. Ben reviewed our needs, matched us with an ideal home, and we ended up canceling 3 other viewing appointments. He’s naturally gifted and has a passion for his work which is truly admirable; we’re excited for his future in real estate in Bermuda and beyond. We look forward to trusting Ben with our family’s needs for all future real estate endeavors.
Ben certainly embodied patience, positivity and persistence while working with us! We are so grateful to have met him.”
Tina and Jeremy Johnson
““Ben is entirely professional and extraordinarily passionate and intuitive about real estate. He was my first and only choice when I decided to sell my home. He is very responsive, creative in his use of social media, and gives excellent advice based on his experiences and deep knowledge of the market. It gave me enormous confidence in him that he was dynamic, is always reaching out to potential buyers and following up, and in the end found a buyer that loved our home as much as we did. And simply, Ben is a kind and genuine soul and an all-round great guy! Thanks Ben!””
Robin Sidders
“Having Ben Rego as my agent representing my executive property was an incredibly new experience than what I have previously been used to. Not only is he seriously professional, but he would always give immediate and helpful feedback and was always available 24/7 to discuss the market for updates and comparables, marketing strategies and more. He has such a calming, experienced and confident way about him and I always knew that both myself and my property were in great hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone for properties of any scale and look forward to working with him more in the future.”
Kyle Parkin
“My wife and were fortunate enough to come across Ben as the listing agent of a condo that we instantly fell in love with. As non-Bermudians, we faced the problem of not knowing what we didn’t know. Ben was fantastic at helping us navigate the entire process from start to finish as well as introducing us to other firms and people we would ultimately need to see a renovation all the way through and we were thrilled with all of his tips, knowledge and advice. He made himself available to us day and night and (figuratively) held our hand throughout the entire process. We can’t imagine ever working with anyone else! Ben has become a friend and we enthusiastically recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in Bermuda!”
Jason Vaillancourt
“Ben is a professional, persistent, hard working and creative partner to anyone buying or selling a home in Bermuda. For our family, Ben performed both roles splendidly as we transitioned our mother from our family’s large home in Smith’s to a beautiful condominium in Southampton. It has been a great pleasure working with you on both these projects, Ben!”
Martin Fryml, Jady Fryml & Family
“Big thank you to Ben for selling our condo. We’ve owned the condo for 11 years but had out grown it, so it was time to sell. Within three months of taking over the listing Ben found the perfect couple for our condo and walked us all through the sale process, making it very smooth and enjoyable. Ben was an absolute pleasure to work with, very good with regular communication and very proactive. Thanks Ben!”
Michael W. Branco
“Having Ben as our agent for a significantly priced waterfront property was truly a game changer. His global experience in the industry before moving back to work in Bermuda is clearly evident by the way he deals with complex situations. We had an accepted offer in 12 days at our asking price and it was the way that Ben strategically handled the busy buyer traffic and multiple pending offers with a new listing that was phenomenal. Incredible with his prompt communication and follow through, he is a seriously motivated and organized business professional. We will certainly highly recommend him to others who want to work with a top quality agent that will give them an extra edge.”
HEG Trust
“I would have to say this was the fastest sale probably for the records! However, I saw the vision and potential in this property! I was very pleased with your professional way of handling the sale! This is the second time I have dealt with your business and I would not hesitate to recommend you and your team to anyone who asks me for sales advice. Again it was a pleasure doing business with you!”
Andrew (AJ) Lewis
“From the start of our journey listing our property in the region of $4 Million, right through to the day of closing (just 33 days later!), Ben was the consummate professional! The swift responsiveness to arising questions, effective representation at the showings, unbelievable marketing that is rare and transcendent for Bermuda, the unique way he handled communications between the parties involved, (with tact and courtesy), and the efficient coordination of all the fine details of the deal, were all outstanding qualities we were treated to first hand, as his clients. With Ben’s knowledgeable and first class guidance and positivity, the whole experience was virtually seamless for us. Thank you Ben!”
Cisco Trust
“Ben, I just want to say again how fortunate I was that you were our realtor for the recent sale of our home in Southampton. Without your drive, tenacity and attention to detail, I am sure our house would still be on the market. You are a powerhouse. Thank you so much for taking such good care of your clients.”
Sandra E. Scott
“As a first time home owner getting onto the ladder, there sure are a lot of questions that I found myself asking. With Ben Rego as our agent, he was not only very helpful, but professional and friendly too. Upon arrival of the house it was immediately apparent he was very familiar with the property and also had intimate knowledge of the vendors, through working with them closely. Ben was very prompt in his responses about and enquiries to do with the property and made the whole process very easy. As he did go above and beyond to be accommodating for any request about the property as we were off island for a portion of the closing for the property. I can thankfully say Ben successfully helped us to get on “the ladder”!”
Gregory Suter
“Ben sold me a house recently and I was impressed from the outset. Ben had a natural ability to make me confident in my purchase. He was open, honest and forthcoming about any and all issues relating to the home. It was breath of fresh air and I appreciated his integrity.”
Steve Thomson
“Working with Ben on the search for and purchase of our first home was both an incredibly easy and fun experience. The tasteful use of social media for his listings was what first caught our eye and his ability to instantly make us feel at home and welcome when showing us a property made him stand out amongst the other realtors we worked with. Accessible at any time – even when on vacation – there was never a question too small that he didn’t get an answer on. In our mind he brings his big city experience, millennial perspective and passion to the family business making him the ideal realtor for both first time and experienced buyers alike.”
Andrew and Natasha Osborne
“Working with Ben Rego to sell my house is an absolute joy.
Right from our initial meeting I could tell that Ben will be able to sell it. I can’t say enough about the expertise, attentiveness, warmth and professionalism Ben brings to our meetings and conversations. I would gladly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.”
Antonia Burrows
“It was really nice to meet you too and I have to note that your dynamism and very pleasant personality is great to encounter. I can just imagine how you are very successful at what you do. Thank you again for always making time for us at all hours during our home search.”
Burgert van Jaarsveldt
“My husband and I recently purchased our first home and we were extremely satisfied with the professionalism and expertise of our agent Ben Rego. As first-time home buyers, Ben was very helpful with introducing us to the market and presenting reasonable options for us to consider. Although we had a lengthy close, Ben maintained communication and kept us updated during the process. We would be happy to recommend Ben to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable and professional agent to assist in the sale or purchase of their home.”
Alexandra and Laureno Lima
“I knew from the first meeting that Ben was the right fit for us. He understood we were selling a home and not just a house. He immediately saw the charm and possibilities our property offered and helped us agree on a realistic asking price. Since then Ben has exceeded expectation, elevating our exposure by his savvy use of both social and traditional media. His weekly reports are detailed and informative keeping us connected and engaged every step of the way. Ben is a consummate professional and I am sure those viewing our home are all equally impressed by his genuine charm and market knowledge.”
Joanne and Jack MacPhee
We appreciate Ben’s positive energy and persistence. We really enjoyed working with Ben renting both properties because he listened to our needs and found the appropriate tenant and secured the asking price and great terms. The admin and screening process was so smooth and communication was timely and responsive. Thank you Ben for supporting us in this rental process and helping us to be successful without getting stressed!
