Exceed expectation! Recommended 100%!

He explained so easy the market ambiance. He was always available to clarify concerns. I felt accompanied in a complex process of selling a house w/o the need to be present. Forecasted different sceneries to be well prepared and had solutions ahead of time. He made the process very easy. He was a “come back”, he sold the house to me around ten years ago, and he was the one that sold the house for me. Recommended? 100%!!!!

Incredible professionalism and effectiveness!

My wife and I recently sold our home thanks to Rick's assistance. Rick kept us thoroughly informed on local market data so that we could maintain a competitive pricing strategy throughout the listing process. He also assisted us in deciding on strategic upgrades that were needed for the property to present better to prospective buyers. The entire process was low stress and smooth and we highly recommend Rick as a realtor.

Rick is an honest, knowledgeable efficient professional.

We asked Rick to list our property in December, 2025. He suggested we wait several months to see if valuations return to higher levels. However, the property was listed in December. Property was sold by Rick and closed on December 11, 2025 thanks to Rick’s diligence and willingness to hold an ‘open house’’ on all weekends. He was very helpful in staging the house, which helped to facilitate the fast sale. Rick always kept us posted on the number of visitors and their possible interest levels. He was always pleasantly available to answer any questions. Rick’s level of service exceeded our expectations as an honest and dedicated professional. Larry Smith

Knowledgeable, Professional, and Proactive in Marketing your house to sell

This was the sixth transaction we did with Rick, and have used him for both the selling and purchasing sides of transactions. His analysis of the market prices placed our house in line for a fair market sale. He and his wife took a lot time to help prepare the home for sale and Rick spent many hours rolling up his own sleeves to assist. He was very proactive with open houses, and met our goal to sell in just 30 days. Rick is very reliable and quick to respond. I would highly recommend Linda and Rick.

Goes the extra mile

He really went the extra mile in meeting with me, marketing, research, and helping me take care of some last minute fixes before putting it on the market.

Professionalism beyond expectations

Having just moved from New England, Rick walked me through every step. I found his knowledge of the currant market, construction, permitting, etc. to be unusually helpful. Highly recommended.
