Thanks a ton for the awesome review! Working with you and your family on finding your first home was a blessing. I'm super glad I could help you navigate the whole home-buying process. Your family's readiness and teamwork made the process smooth, and it was a pleasure collaborating with you. One standout moment for me was negotiating those closing costs—we worked together to get you the best deal possible. And how about that appraisal, right? Finding out your home was valued at $50,000 more than what you paid was a big win. It's a great reflection of our combined effort. I appreciate your shout-out about me staying on top of things and being available for your questions. Can't wait to do more business together in the future. Looking forward to seeing your family grow in this home and maybe move on to the other in the future.

Julie! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! I'm absolutely thrilled to hear that your move from IL back to CA was a success and that you're still enjoying your new home, especially seeing all the social media posts on how the family is acclimating well. It was indeed a unique challenge, but I'm glad I could assist you and your family throughout the process. I appreciate your kind words about my approach to understanding your needs and finding the right home for your lifestyle. It's fantastic to know that you didn't have to settle for less in CA, and I'm delighted that your family has found a happy space. The fact that we managed to find and secure your new home in such a short timeframe, even with the challenge of not everyone being present for the final decision, is fantastic. I'm pleased to hear that your family gatherings are thriving, you have the needed space for remote work, and "K" is enjoying the area. Your note about asking the right questions to the sellers means a lot. I believe in thorough communication, and I'm glad it gave you confidence in our partnership. It's great to know that my experience across various aspects of real estate was beneficial, and I truly appreciate your trust in my advice. A big thank you for recommending me to your sister; I'm honored to have the opportunity to assist her as well. Wishing you and your family continued happiness in your home!

I sincerely apologize for the delay in responding, but I want you to know how much your thoughtful review means to me. It was truly a pleasure assisting you and Jess in finding your first home. I'm delighted to hear that my guidance through the home-buying process made you feel comfortable and confident in your decisions. Your kind words about my work ethic, availability, and honesty mean a lot. I believe in providing transparent info, and I'm glad it resonated with you. Your situation, being seven months pregnant and needing to find a bigger place urgently, added a unique dynamic to our search. I'm glad I could understand your wants and needs quickly, and that we were able to find a suitable condo within a week of our initial meeting. Negotiating a price that worked within your budget was a rewarding part of the process, and I'm pleased it met your expectations. It warms my heart to know that more than a year after closing escrow, you feel comfortable reaching out, and I'm always here for any questions or assistance you may need. I truly enjoy seeing the baby grow since we have met! Thank you for the review; it means a lot to me. I'm grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this significant milestone for your family. Wishing you continued joy and happiness in your new place and I am confident we'll be working with each other in the future!

Thank you Robert for the awesome testimonial. It was a pleasure to work with your family and get into the right home at a time when everything changed due to COVID. As a matter of fact, I recalled I was out of town and we still got everything down in a timely matter, and if I was not there to answer our team was! I know the documents can be daunting and thrilled to hear that the digital opens did help make you feel more comfortable. We'll see you at the next client appreciation events!
