"I have used several friends who were brokers to sell my previous homes and they did a great job. I met Rich who was referred to me by a friend. I had interviewed two other realtors and hands down Rich was by far the most professional. He had formulated an approach that was excellent. I sold my house for top dollar and he and his team far exceeded my expectations! I then used Rich and his team to hep me find the house that i wanted. I had a specific set of requirements and a budget that i wanted to stay in. Rich found the perfect home, moderately d and with a pool. He negotiated for me during the whole process ad once again exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him and his team"
