"Andy,

We very much appreciate all of your hard work in selling our condo. We were so impressed with the lengths to which you went to market it and actually had a number of friends and neighbors comment to us about what an amazing job you were doing. The fact that they had all seen marketing materials about our condo just goes to show how thorough you were. We also really appreciate what a nice job you did in keeping us posted on how the process was going and in corresponding with potential buyers. We always felt like we knew exactly where things stood and knew we could count on you to negotiate on our behalf firmly but cordially. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

Our sincere thanks!
Lisa and Jeff"

You give realtors a good name. I appreciate your advice, expertise, careful review of documents and most of all it has been a pleasure working with you. Hopefully the rough patch is behind us. I love the building and the space and layout is just right for us. I think we did really well. Again, I appreciate all that you have done for us. I look forward to wrapping this up and having you as a guest in our new home.

You're the best!

"Andy,

Christine and I are most grateful for the extraordinary level of service you provided as our buyer’s agent in Cambridge and seller’s agent in Boston. Your guidance on pricing and negotiation was thoughtful and obviously informed by deep knowledge of both markets. Your help in navigating the complications of bidding on a home still under construction gave us crucial comfort that all would get done and that we had the requisite contractual protection from foreseeable contingencies. Beyond that, you volunteered your time and expertise to oversee much of the final work on our behalf while we were away, and prevented delays through timely use of your extensive Rolodex of high quality service providers. We could not have protected our own interests as well as you did on our behalf throughout all phases. Further, you drew the highest praise from the developer for your professionalism and reliability. He rated you as the best of the agents he has worked with in a thirty year career.

We thank you especially for your always prompt and thorough answers to our many emails and phone calls. We would not consider using any other agent for any future real estate transactions in the area and would recommend you enthusiastically to any buyer or seller.

Regards,

Michael "

"Andy,

Just wanted to say how much I appreciated your work with the sale of my condo unit. The unit I believe was priced right, I had an offer in a reasonable amount of time and the buyer was well qualified, all aspects that contributed to a smooth process. In particular, your daily emails outlining the activity with the sale kept me very much informed. Even though I was living a couple of hours away, I knew exactly what was happening with sales activity every day. Your attention to detail, from making certain paperwork was processed timely to even the re-hanging of my bathroom mirror, allowed me to keep the sale out of my busy schedule.

If and when I know of any persons contemplating a property sale or purchase in your area, I will certainly refer them to you. Again, thank you for smooth sailing.

"When I first met Andrew at the BCAE seminar I was feeling overwhelmed at the prospect of selling my condo and buying a new one. Despite having been through the buying process once before I had never dealt with realtors and had preconceived ideas of agents being more interested in their own financial gain than in what was best for me. Fortunately working with Andrew was nothing like I expected. In fact, his knowledge of the Boston housing market made the process as seamless as possible. I know I would not have had such a positive end result without his help.

Every step of the way Andrew answered my questions patiently and kindly. He gave me the time I needed to explore different areas of Boston to decide where I wanted to move and actually slowed me down when I jumped in with both feet and wanted to make an offer before he thought I was ready. It was then that I realized I could trust him—that he was more interested in my finding my perfect home than making a quick commission.

Andrew was always in contact, replying to emails quickly and making himself available on weekends and holidays if needed. He repeatedly went the extra mile to fit around my schedule, calm me down when I got overwhelmed and explain each detailed step of the process. When I told my family and friends about how involved Andrew was I heard repeatedly how lucky I was to find him and that this sort of involvement is almost unheard of in agents. He is unlike other agents because of his work ethic, flexibility and client-centered focus. I recommend him highly.

"Working with Andrew was an outstanding experience! He brought a level of service and expertise that I leaned upon every step of the way. As a first-time home buyer, I can't overstate enough how helpful Andrew was. He was instrumental in explaining and assisting me throughout every aspect of the home-buying process. Whenever I had the slightest question, Andrew was there to talk me through it. He's an amazing resource to anyone who is thinking about making the “big move.”

Andrew brings a level of experience, objectivity and service that totally exceeded my expectations. He's more than just a buyer’s agent: He's an ally. He insisted that I understand and was comfortable with every step of the process. In working with him, I always felt that I was making smart, informed decisions.

Where I work, we pride ourselves on offering an unparalleled level of service to our clients. Quite frankly, Andrew taught me a thing or two about being wholly dedicated to a client's best interests. His level of responsiveness and his passion for his work truly set him apart. Working with Andrew felt like a genuine partnership. Throughout every step of the process, he ensured that we were on the same page and working toward the same goals. He brought a level of strategic thinking and tactical execution that was seemingly flawless.

Andrew believes in the long term. The first time I met him, he told me that this was not just about me buying my first place through him. Rather, it was about my complete satisfaction in his services such that I would be comfortable, not only with this purchase, but about any future real estate buying or selling through him. Needless to say, I will be back in the future.
