We wanted to take a moment out of our day and share our experiences with Brian Dane. First, a bit about our situation. We were out of state sellers, who had just gone through a hard experience with a renter who had neglected our family home during his tenancy. We were looking at several multi-state trips back and forth just to get the house listed. From the moment we first met Brian at the house, he filled us with confidence in his knowledge of the market along with his rolodex of contacts to help address the repairs that needed to be done to the home. Not only did Brian arrange the repairs that were needed, but he also had pre-inspection of the roof completed which was shared with potential buyers. Brian's pricing strategy worked well in the market we were in which resulted in multiple above price offers. The buyer we selected unfortunately had difficulties securing financing even though they provided ample documentation; however, Brian effectively managed the situation, and we moved on from those buyers and promptly relisted the house. Within days of relisting, we received a new offer and were able to successfully close on the house. This was not a straightforward listing, and we couldn’t imagine using another realtor and getting the same outcomes that we got with Brian. Brian is a friendly, understanding, well-connected, and knowledgeable real estate agent. His negotiations with the other agents were firm but fair. He took the time to educate us on the unique issues that arose with escrow funds and other issues that were new to us. We know these types of reviews can be taken with a grain of salt, but Brian excelled in all facets of what it takes to be a great realtor. We would not hesitate to recommend Brian to be the person to help you sell your home. Joe and Krista Lively

We are very happy with our choice to use Brian as our agent to purchase our home. He knows the market in the area very well and worked hard to make sure we got the home we wanted. He is very passionate and takes his work very seriously and responds very quickly when you need him. We would absolutely recommend using Brian as your agent.

Brian with Black Oak Realty impressed us from the first meeting we had with him. He is very knowledgeable of the market place and brought documentation to this first meeting which helped us make the decision to go with him. He listens to your concerns and helps to guide you along the process. He always responds in a timely manner when you are trying to communicate with him. Our house had some special issues and Brian went above and beyond to deal with these issues and get the house sold. We actually had moved out of state so we had to turn our keys over to Brian and he helped to oversee the house since we were now living out of state. Our home was 20 years old and had not been remodeled or brought up to date which made it a challenge to sell. Brian stepped up to this challenge and did a great job getting it sold. We highly recommend him.

Brian was very organized, professional and overall a pleasure to work with. We relocated across country and Brian provided plenty of knowledge to help up not only buy our home but to acclimate to our new surroundings. He helped make the process of looking and buying a home easy and smooth.

We found Brian Dane to be highly competent, prepared and worked so hard to help us achieve our goals. He is a man with integrity and great ideas for marketing and contacting every available avenue to find potential buyers. Our experience was so positive working with him. We highly recommend him.

If you want an agent who works hard for you, has a professional demeanor, keeps you in the loop about your listing and sale and will work hard for you, then Brian Dane is your agent. Brian came highly recommended by a neighbor so we decided to do an interview. Immediately after meeting Brian, my sister and I knew we had found the right guy to help us sell my father’s home. Brian does his homework and he came with a good list of comps, an excellent marketing plan and he was driven to make this emotionally difficult trust sale easy on my sister and myself. Brian knew exactly what to do and helped us every step of the way on this less than conventional sale. We got updates after ever open house and he kept us in the loop from start to finish. His marketing strategy was excellent and he found us a buyer within two weeks and the house closed and funded three weeks later. It could not have been a more seamless experience. Absolutely call Brian if you have a real estate need. He will give you 110%.

Brian was wonderful! We lost our home during the recession and were nervous to buy again. We met Brian and discussed our concerns and goals and he was able to meet those perfectly. He never pushed us, and always made sure to mention our goals when we were making a plan to look at homes. We found a home that we liked quickly and Brian was able to guide us through the home buying process with ease, he has a lot of experience and knows exactly what to do to make your offer look desirable to the seller. Our first offer was accepted and we just received our keys! There is no way this process would have gone as smoothly without Brian. And we were so fortunate to feel comfortable with our decision because of Brian’s help and guidance. We would recommend Brian to any of our friends or family members, and we will absolutely use him down the road if we ever want to buy another home.

Brian is very in tune with market conditions and gives it to you straight. He works hard to market your home and helps you through the whole process. He sets real expectations and delivers real results. I can't recommend him more. I don't know why you would use anyone else. He sold my home in 1 day at full price. He actively guided it through closing, getting me paid in 3 weeks from listing. Outstanding!!

Very impressive at the first call and meeting. Never failed me to my highest expectations. Excellent business conduct and wonderful personality. Well abreast with the market and gives ultimate dedication to his clients plus conscientious and easy to work with. Deserve my greatest accolades & recommendations.

It was an amazing experience working with Brian and his team. Very professional and communicated every step of the process. I would highly recommend Brian to all my friends and family and will only be using him for all my future needs.

Brian is absolutely amazing. My previous experiences with Realtors was not positive, but Brian changed my perception entirely. This guy will flat out HUSTLE to get your house sold. He is incredibly knowledgeable about that market, his marketing is second to none, and he goes the extra mile. The day after our house listed he was taking fliers door-to-door in 105 degree heat. From the beginning of the listing process through the end he was absolutely the best. He kept us informed with everything through the selling process and was always available to us. If you are at all considering selling your house, and you go with anyone but Brian, you are making a mistake!
