Someone who succeeds when other agents have failed


"Thank you for lifting me out of a depression that had been ongoing since I placed my mother's house up for sale with another Realtor. I was promised the benefit of their experience...the reality was quite different.

I called the Realtor numerous times with messages being taken and too few call backs. I never really knew what status the house was in. The three offers that came through were all flawed and fell apart. I was led to believe that it would take years before the house would sell because of the 'market' I was thrown into a deep dark depression. After all I was selling a family home and many childhood memories.

After over a year on the market, I turned to you. You have given me peace of mind. You and Carol have treated me with respect and never once misrepresented what you would do for me. You advised me of all that you had done and would be doing. My mother would be pleased that the sale was handled by true professionals and most of all, by people who cared about my needs not just as the seller, but as a person.

After my past experience, that means more to me than you can imagine."
Judy H, Administrator


"I want to commend you for the professionalism, and very good sense you both showed in the listing, and resulting selling of our duplex. Every one knows of the so called soft market that real estate is going through right now. You did however find a buyer that was well qualified, and had been looking at quite a few duplexes with no committed interest.

This was all due to your efforts to hand in there and find the buyer it took. Thank you for your expert help
Bill Brittain, Merger and Acquisition Brokerage


"This was certainly a most frustrating move for us, due to the economic turn down and other circumstances about our relocation. You showed us more persistence, patience, attention to detail and flexibility than we experienced elsewhere, that resulted in a sale that may otherwise have failed.

We especially appreciated how you kept in touch, bringing us up to date; you take the time to communicate, a rare consumer benefit offered today
Betty Albert and Bruce Gruenzel, Certified Professional Photographer


"You succeeded in doing something - namely selling our building - where others had previously failed. Your perseverance, helpful advice, and professional manner kept us confident in your ability to sell our property when we might have otherwise given up"
Nancy & Larry Lewellen, Mortgage Broker/Computer Engineer, San Francisco
