Testimonials

Suzanne CAndy went above and beyond when selling our home and representing us for the purchase of our new home. Andy is exceptional with details in securing results we hoped for. His experience was obvious when helping us purchase our new home as he negotiated upgrades on items we never knew could be done. He worked effortlessly staying in contact with us and walked us through each step of the process. We are so grateful for Andy and his knowledge of real estate as everything went smoothly. We highly recommend Andy when selling or buying a home. You will be amazed as we were at how great he is.
Mika STo say Andy is AMAZING is an understatement! He was fully invested in making my home buying experience seamless. While this was not my first home buying experience it was definitely the best experience. Andy also helped me sell my current home-he eliminated much of my anxiety. I highly recommend that you use him if you’re looking to buy or sell. Andy has all the qualities to make your future home buying experience wonderful.
Bill & BarbWe’ve sold four homes in the past 10 years and have dealt with a variety of real estate agents, most recently, Andy. Andy is a seasoned agent that sold our home for more than we expected in less time than we expected. Our online home presentation was compelling and Andy has a sharp eye for practical showing details. He was on top of the details about our home, communications were excellent throughout the process and we were always able to get prompt answers to questions and up-to-date assessments on the status of the sale. We thought about selling it ourselves. We are glad we didn’t go that route, as we estimate that our net earnings from the sale exceeded what we would have made if we had gone the “by- owner” route, and definitely reduced stress levels. Easily five stars!
Kathryn A.Our experience with Andy was outstanding, to say the least. Andy is a professionals with the experience, knowledge, and expertise to make selling a home as easy as possible. From our first meeting, it was clear that he genuinely interested in representing his clients' best interests. He was very helpful to make suggestions about what we needed to do to prepare our home for selling, and helped us with staging. The photographer did an amazing job with photos and video. Andy was responsive and helpful during all the negotiations with the buyer. I highly recommend Andy!
J RAmazing agent! Andy helped me sell my house. It was totally stress free and fantastic. We sold the house in record time for way over asking price. Totally professional. He cared about my needs and listened to my questions and answered everything. He gave me advice and walked me through all the steps, from getting the house ready to planning out the showing and outlining the whole process. This was a completely rewarding experience thanks to Andy!. This coffee is for closers!
