We were very picky when it came to buying a home. We looked at many different houses in came very close to closing on one but ended up having an issue with at the last moment. Rick was very patient and clearly explained everything to us. He had a plethora of resources for us to research. Thanks to Rick we were able to make Informed decisions about the buying process. This is our very 1st home and it was very overwhelming but Rick made it much easier for us. Thank you very much Rick for all of your hard work You spent almost 5 months driving all over the place trying to help us find the perfect home in our budget and we could not be happier.

Mr.Gates not only knew the local market , but had a very engaging and straightforward manner in dealing with the complexities of selling my unique property He was diligent, consistently followed through on stated tasks, and made the process much less challenging then it might have otherwise been. He was quick to respond to inquires. As a novice seller I appreciated the guidance for opportunities to improve the appeal of the home from basic cosmetic work to more intricate upgrades to systems. My home sold to the very first viewers in just 8 days

It was a pleasure to work with Rick when buying our home in Carthage. His knowledge of the area was very helpful, and he was very communicative throughout the process. We weren't 100% sure that we wanted to purchase a house when we started looking, but Rick was still very attentive when we requested showings or asked for information. He went above and beyond to find information on any homes that we were interested in. Overall, we would highly recommend Rick for any property sale or purchase.

Believe the reviews. Rick is a 5 star realtor who goes the extra mile to represent his clients. I purchased my first home in Watertown NY, sight unseen while living in NC. Rick was my go to person to tour homes, sending videos, FaceTiming me and endless consultation for the perfect home for us. Other realtors in the area working for the seller side were unresponsive, and too busy for their clientele which made me value working with Rick even more. If you need someone who honors your interests and desires in a home/ area, and will take his time to find you the best option- Rick is the guy. One conversation with him and you will understand why all his reviews are positive and glowing! If I ever have to sell my home, Rick will certainly be my listing agent as he has exceeded my expectations.

Rick was fabulous! He helped us to sell our house in no time at all. He gave us honest feedback on updates we needed to make before putting our house on the market. And, he made sure we were priced for the current market. I could email Rick day or night, and he made the entire process easy as can be. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor to help them sell their house or search for a new property.

Incredible realtor, he went above and beyond our expectations. Listened to our needs and found homes that matched as best as possible. Will alwaya recommend !

Attentive, thorough, knowledgeable, all of the best. We moved across the country without even seeing our home with our own eyes. Rick hosted multiple video walkthroughs, and shared his professional opinion on what the home looked and felt like structurally. We looked for a hot minute, we offered competitively until we got the home we wanted. Rick was with us as a constant source of wisdom and aid. Would never have had the courage to get it done without him.
