Advice for New Home Buyers
Always save more than you think you'll need.
“Richard was such an excellent resource for our home purchase. When our first purchase didn’t close because the FSBO seller backed out, Richard was an absolute advocate for us and knew his stuff! We decided then that if we found another property, we wanted Richard’s honest approach, his expertise, and his dedication on the next purchase. He was thorough and had very frequent communication with us, ensuring that we didn’t miss a step in the closing timetable. I really appreciate his straight forward manner, and I’ll certainly be recommending him to others.”

“Richard really seemed to care about me. I called and asked alot of basic questions I have never bought and sold a house before. He was very patient and helpful and never made me feel silly for asking all those questions. He always responded to emails promptly. The first time I talked to him the vet first thing we told me was that I should negotiate my realtor's fee since I was buying and selling with the same realtor. Which was very helpful advice.”
