My family was looking to relocate from the Seattle Area to Florida due to many reasons (politics and cost of living were a huge factor). My options were to move to the Jacksonville area, and when we decided on an area in Northwestern Florida, we found a house on Zillow that we both agreed upon, and through Zillow contacted Glen, the realtor showing the property. His communication is impeccable, and he really listened to our wants and needs. Florida can be tricky due to the vast number of HOA's and CCD's that are not listed with most ads, and Glen was able to navigate these things for us. Transparency is important. I was actually deployed overseas when I made contact with Glen. I explained my situation to him and he was extremely helpful with getting information that I was asking in a timely manner. Interestingly, the house we originally wanted had some serious repair needs, and after consulting family, we decided that the original house we wanted was the juice not worth the squeeze, thinking there would be more issues down the road. Had it not have been for Glen's recommendation on home inspectors, we may have ended up with a house that would have needed some serious repairs. After this house went "south," but very comfortable and confident with Glen, we asked that he continue working for us for the perfect house. Through this process, our needs changed and we decided to go from a 2 car garage to a three car garage, which was more of a challenge than one might think, Glen expertly maneuvered our wants and needs list and found us the perfect house. Making matters worse for us, and being a military family, and Coronavirus and all else impacting everything, Glen's communication has been excellent. This is the second home I had purchased, and I have to tell you, between Glen and my previous realtor, I wish my first one was as proactive and caring as Glen has been. He listens to what we want and delivered. We would not have found this house without him!
