"Choosing Rick as our buyer's real estate agent was one of the best decisions in our lives. As first time home buyers, we were completely lost. Rick helped us through the searching and buying process with such patience and knowledge, recommended great mortgage companies and even bought our first homecoming present. He was incredibly responsive and always proactive in sending us very promising prospects for our first home. He found our gem and we could not be happier with the purchase. He also assisted us with purchasing one rental property and we are on our way to find our second one! Overall I could say that Rick is one of the best real estate agents in Kansas City. We have been recommending him to all our friends and will continue to work with him in the future!!" - ljupka

"My husband and I have used Rick for several houses that we have purchased throughout the years. He is our go-to realtor whenever we need one. He is highly knowledgeable, tenacious and driven to get you the home you are looking for. WE LOVE him so much we often recommend him to family and friends who are looking for a realtor. I couldn't say more great things about Rick!"

★★★★★
"Rick was always helpful and well prepared for any showings. He was patient and knowledgable about many neighborhoods we looked at. He was always available to see houses even on same day, evenings, and weekends. He remained patient through the forty plus houses we viewed to find the right one. When it was time to make offers he was prepared with numerous comps and was honest in comparing the house to those comps. You could always tell he wanted you to find the right house and to be happy with your decision."

"Rick was great to work with. He was very patient with my indecisiveness. We weren't sure if we wanted to renovate or buy a move in ready. We ended up finding the perfect house to update. His expertise in flipping houses and renovating was a huge help while looking for houses. He was able to provide suggestions and general ideas of pricing of certain projects based on his own experiences. When it came time to do our own renovations, he provided us with the contacts for all of the contractors we needed. He was thorough in helping us sell our house as well. He guided us in getting it ready to sell. He ended up selling our house in LESS THAN ONE DAY! We were thrilled. We got the price we wanted to sell for and the price we wanted to pay for our new house. We are now settled in our new house and so thankful for such a pleasant experience in what is typically very stressful."

"Rick Sanford is a pro. My schedule was more important than his in his eyes and that meant never missing out on a fresh listing. I looked at probably 60 homes with him plus all of the listings viewed online. He never got annoyed that I wasn't satisfied with what I was looking at in fact when I was so frustrated and almost willing to settle he said no! This is wrong this is wrong etc. He made sure that I found exactly what I was looking for. Finally 6 months later I found more than I was looking for and now live in my forever dream home that is more than I could have ever imagined. I can't thank him enough for providing me a home that I look forward to walki into the door to. On top of that Rick sold my home within 4 hours of being on the market. Rick is amazing I will be forever grateful for what he did for me, his patience, his knowledge and his level or respect for my very busy schedule. Thank you Rick."
