My best wishes and thanks go out to my latest buyer-client on the purchase of her new home on Baltimore Annapolis Blvd. in Severna Park, MD. Rachel was the ideal client to work with. A first-time homebuyer, she was patient, organized, decisive and a lot of fun. Rachel started saving for her home purchase when she was a TEENAGER! As a result, she was well-qualified and very focused. Enjoy your new home, Rachel, and thanks for letting me help you with your real estate need!
Congratulations John & Cassie Gallagher on the Sale of Your Home!
John & Casie Gallagher needed to sell their Odenton, MD, townhome to move and pursue John's new job in Georgia. The Gallaghers were not really satisfied with the performance of their first realtor, who failed to sell the home after several months of work. Worried and disappointed with their home-sale experience, John & Casie then turned to me for help.
A few weeks after I listed the home, with a fresh approach, lots of work and heavy marketing, we sold the house for 98 percent of the Gallaghers' asking price. "[We] only wish we had hired you sooner," the Gallaghers said.
What did the Gallaghers like best about working with me? "Great communication, especially since we were out of town," they said. "Far and away, the best realtor we've ever worked with."
