From the moment we met with Howard we knew we were going to hire him to represent us in the sale of our parent's home. Howard did not live in the community where our parent's home was located and there were plenty of "recommended" brokers who resided in the community. We met with a few of them. None of them had done their homework researching prior sales, market values and providing comparable sales of similar homes apparently assuming that just because they lived in the community, they would get the listing. Howard knew exactly what to set as the asking price because he had done his homework. Howard got the listing, immediately instructed us how to get the house "ready" to be photographed and shown, called in his photographer, chose the best photographs, arranged for the drone shots to show the property and the house went on the market extremely quickly. In less than a week we had offers including a full price cash offer which we accepted. Unfortunately the broker working with the buyer was one that did reside in the community and she confirmed our original thoughts about the brokers who lived there. She was absolutely USELESS. She never responded to calls or emails, failed to manage her clients expectations and created such havoc that the deal almost fell apart numerous times. If it wasn't for the cool, calm and collected demeanor and guidance of Howard, the deal certainly would have fallen apart. We cannot sing the praises of Howard enough. From the initial meeting through the closing, he was on top of the deal, never lost interest and successfully got the deal to close.
