It is always reassuring when everyone you work with in a home purchase from the inspector, to the mortgage lender, to the closing attorney all mention "you chose the right realtor!" It makes a difference having the right person to work with that not only quickly identifies the appropriate type of home for you but also has the technical knowledge to identify potential issues and then when the time comes, being able to coordinate and connect you with the right people that know how to execute a sale efficiently. It only took a couple iterations of virtually viewing a few different homes and providing some feedback before Greg identified a home that checked all of our essential boxes. We only needed to visit this one property in person to know that was the one we wanted. We had a relatively tight timeline between contract to close and all steps laid out by Greg were executed efficiently in time for closing. Couldn't be happier, thank you!

I will definitely refer Greg to my friends and relatives. He is extremely knowledgeable, experienced and qualified. Greg kept us up-to-date during the entire process. We will surely be working with him again. Greg did the research necessary to come up with a good sales price for our home. We got a full price offer. It was easy and stressless. He helped us every step of the way which led to a speedy closing.

Greg quickly sold my 3-family investment property in Norwich, CT, at the right price. I was totally pleased with his presentation and marketing of our listing. His guidance through every step of the process was priceless and beyond professional. We look forward to working with him again when it comes time to sell our primary home or either of the two condos remaining in my small portfolio.

Greg Hanner is a true professional and a master of his craft. He has created many connections in the realtor world and is respected by many. I appreciated that he used data to make informed decisions. He is extremely knowledgeable and when we ran into the inevitable hurdles, he was able to give insight based on past experiences to guide me in making a decision. He leads with a heart of a teacher, informing his clients to make a decision rather than making a decision for them. He is also a very honest person, ensuring transparency for both sides of the deal.

I was very fortunate to have Greg as my realtor. I relied heavily on his knowledge of every aspect of buying and selling homes. He pointed out things that wouldn't have thought of when looking at a home. I can recommend him without reservation. He will give you peace of mind with any decision you make. Jude Abbe

Greg did a great job selling my condo. The prep work he did prior to the sale was exceptional. We negotiated on fees and settled on a fee structure. The property was sold in two weeks for a great price. I was kept informed even though I was out of the country. I’m very happy with the service he provided and would recommend him highly.

As a first-time homebuyer, I was fortunate to have Greg Hanner as my real estate agent. He expertly guided me through the entire process, patiently answering my numerous questions with impressive promptness and clarity. Greg's proficiency with technology was particularly helpful in comparing properties, even using tools like Google Maps. He also ensured swift communication between all parties involved, leading to a fast closing. Beyond his professional skills, Gregory is exceptionally patient and a genuinely nice person. For any first-time buyer, he is undoubtedly the best choice.

I'm one of the little guys, probably on the low end of the buying spectrum when it comes to buying a first home, and we were moving from Long Island to CT. Greg never made us feel that way, he put up with all of our inexperience and confusion (it also happened to be a difficult time, personally). If we had questions, if there was something bothering us about the experience, if our ignorance kept us from looking at things in a property we may have missed, Greg supported us. We had him crisscrossing counties, taking him outside his area, looking at windows and heaters, and all the while Greg was wearing a smile and educating us. The experience will never be perfect, but know you have someone on your side striving to make improvements at every turn.

I had a great experience working with Greg to find my new home. From the very beginning, he was incredibly responsive, always quick to answer my questions and provide updates. Communication was seamless, which made the process go smoothly. Greg is extremely knowledgeable about the market and provided valuable insights on neighborhoods, pricing trends, and what to look for in a home. His expertise helped me make informed decisions at every step. It’s clear that Greg is a highly experienced professional who truly cares about his clients. He took the time to understand my needs and worked tirelessly to find the perfect home for me. I never felt pressured, only supported, which really reduced my stress and I never felt overwhelmed. Beyond just experience, Greg was also very strategic in negotiating on my behalf. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to secure a great deal in a competitive market. He knew exactly how to position my offer to be a strong offer while ensuring my best interests were protected. One of the things that truly set Greg apart was his ability to connect me with trusted third-party professionals, from mortgage lenders to home inspectors. Every recommendation he provided turned out to be not only reliable but also a better deal than the options I had found on my own. I highly recommend Greg to anyone looking to buy a home. If you want a dedicated, knowledgeable, and strategic realtor!

Kept me updated every day about the showings, and what they said, and sent everything over to me to look over and sign

He was very helpful

In our first conversation Greg told me he was the "anti-realtor realtor"; meaning he has no agenda other than to find his clients their perfect home whatever their budget. That alleviated my apprehension about buying the property I had in mind. He's helped people purchase multi-million dollar estates so I worried me and my tiny old house would be maybe not so important to him. I also expected to get talked out of it. I was wrong. Greg knows houses - from crawl spaces to attics and all the way around. He also has trusted contacts for inspections and more. I was treated like royalty and this was my new castle. Plus, a closing gift of a packed tool bag from Garden Realty saved me from multiple trips to my storage unit. I used every tool in it. Follow-up contact about how I'm settling in and genuine gratitude for using Garden Realty is refreshing business sense. Greg is honest, knowledgeable, and efficient, making the entire process unexpectedly simple. I recommend him to anyone looking for THE BEST.
