Rich was the listing agent for one of the open houses that my wife and I were looking at - we are first time homeowners and had no idea where to begin. We told him we were currently using a corporate agent from one of the big websites (rhymes with 'shred bin'), he described that the agents from those websites may be a lot less motivated to sell than an individual realtor since they get paid the same base salary regardless of the price or satisfaction of their client. In addition, Rich spent time to give us the inside scoop of current market conditions, prices, and projected trends. He also hooked us up with an awesome underwriter who took us through every step of the home purchasing process. After lengthy discussions about strategy with Rich, we pounced during a very brief lull in the market which allowed us to steal a listed $950k home in Danville for <$920k (unheard of in this area) with very aggressive negotiations from Rich on our behalf! Rich was able to bring in old-school tactics and charm which I feel like is difficult to find these days; my new wife and I came out way ahead because of it. Thank you Rich, we look forward to utilizing your services for our next home purchase - although this one is so great we may never move!
