Al Parker
As first time buyers my husband and I felt overwhelmed. We had heard so many horror stories of dishonest realtors-- were warned they would lie, cheat, and steal to close the deal as fast as possible. Al couldn't be farther from this description. He was patient-- took the time to understand what we wanted and was so generous with his time and expertise. He was knowledgeable-- steered us away from houses with obvious red flags (cracks and water damage) and more subtle ones too-- proximity to highway sounds or industrial zoning. He managed to make a highly stressful situation actually (dare I say it?) fun. He rolled with my occasional cynical humor and our screaming children like a champ. And he got us our house! He has earned his honest reputation and forever changed our minds about realtors. We're converts and lifelong members of the Al fan club.
