Mr. Cantwell, because of previous experience with the Greenbelt cooperative, knew that the seller needs to be present at settlement, whereas those with only single-family housing sales were mostly or entirely unfamiliar with this requirement.
Rich Cantwell knows the local market and what needs to be done to sell in that local market. He does not pressure the seller and offers context for what might make the home more attractive for sale rather than attempting to pressure the seller into random upgrades. He is honest, has integrity, and is pleasant to work with. He has excellent contacts with home repair people who do good quality work in reasonable time. I cannot say enough good about him.
Richard helps us sold our house last summer, we already moved to NY at that time and he helps us reorganize our house, very handy and very patient with great knowledge of the realty market. We finally sold our house by lots of helps from him. The process is smooth. He is the best agent we ever met.
Rich was great to work with. He's really knowledgeable about the area and the market. It was a smooth experience from start to finish. He had good tips to share and I appreciated his advice throughout, especially with negotiations. As a first time home seller, I felt great about my choice in agent.
I was desperate to sell my unit and was on a time crunch. Richard Cantwell gave me great advice, staged my home, and faithfully did his “Magic” getting terrific people involved. His honesty, integrity, professionalism and skills are UNMATCHED! You NEED his help!
I've dealt with the number of real estate agents in my lifetime, but Rich takes the prize as the best. There was a problem with the sale of the house. Rich got us through it. This is the second time I've used him as an agent and regard his work A#1! Sometimes he told made things I didn't want to hear but he always did it with the certain gentleness. He spent hours and hours making sure the house would be attractive to a prospective buyer. He went out of his way on so many occasions on my behalf. He always had time for us and every time we proposed a question he had an answer; he never put us off. In the end of the day our house sold without a hitch. We got our asking price. That alone would be a reason to recommend Richard Can't well but there is so much more!
I had been renting my house since 2008 and was finally ready to sell when my tenant's lease was over in May 2022. Unfortunately, the tenant left the house unlivable. Rich was not only my realtor, but a friend. I was completely overwhelmed and was not sure how I was going to manage all the renovations, physically and financially. He stepped in and for three (3) very long months, he managed all the renovations, even going as far as rolling up his sleeves and literally working with the contractors. Once the renovations were complete, Rich and his team staged the home and within four (4) days, I had a ratified contract. Rich was in contact with me daily about the progress and explained the process so clearly, I almost felt I was letting him down because I had no questions or concerns. We settled the sale in less than thirty (30) days of the ratification. From this experience, I can guarantee that there is no other realtor or firm I would recommend to use other than Richard Cantwell and Town Center Realty!
When we wanna to sell our property, the first name came to our mind is Richard, he is a great agent and have good reputation around Greenbelt area. We moved to New York and Richard did a great job to help us arrange the selling process. He is very handy and helped us set up the open house. He kept communication with us and kept us up to date. Finally we sold the house and settlement quick and smooth with help from Richard. We really appreciate his help and professional suggestions. Richard is a honest and professional agent, and also he knows the house and very handy. He is the best choice if you would like to sell the house in Maryland.
I can’t thank Richard Cantwell enough for the amazing service he has provided to my family. Several years ago, he worked with my parents when they moved to Greenbelt. When my family and I decided to move to Greenbelt, Richard was our first call. Richard is friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. If we ever move again, we will ask for his help selling our GHI unit.
Rich was referred to us by some friends for our move from Rhode Island to Maryland. Rich worked with us early to gain an understanding of our needs and wants. He helped familiarize us with the market in the area and establish expectations by providing listings well in advance of our intended purchase timeline. We didn’t want to buy sight unseen, so Rich was able to schedule a bunch of viewings for when we were able to visit the area. He helped us shape our offer, and after switching lenders while under contract, kept us on timeline to close - overnighting crucial paperwork since we were out of state. Rich caught an issue with the final disclosures that saved us money at closing! After closing, he provided a lock box and key so the house could be painted while we were still out of state. He then paid for a cleaning as a house warming gift! I literally couldn’t ask for more from Rich. He made the entire experience so much easier than we anticipated despite the housing market turmoil over the last six months. I recommend him to anyone buying or selling!
Richard went above and beyond to ensure that this transaction was completed. We know he was good for the purchase - and reaffirmed it during the sale. Thanks for a great job!
Strong local and general knowledge. Emphasizes communication and honesty. Went out of his way to find us a buyer and followed through on all aspects of our home sale. Focused on our needs and priorities. Hard to fault any aspect of our experience with Richard Cantwell and we will use him again.
