What clients are saying...
Russ was great. He kept in touch and knew what I was looking for.
Russ was very helpful and patient throughout the home buying process with me and showed me multiple properties in several different areas when it worked into my schedule. Thanks again Russ!
Russ is a wonderful agent and a genuine person. He listens to your wants and needs and follows through accordingly. Communication is key to any relationship. Russ does not leave much room for improvement there; his ability to convey facts and details is unparalleled. Russ facilitated my ability to act as a 'seasoned home buying professional' as he put it; there was not a single moment during the process where I felt lost and didn't know what to do next. If you are a first time home buyer and are intimidated or not sure where to start, just give Russ a call.
Russ is literally the best agent, we love him! Russ is chill and very knowledgeable. When we face some questions and concerns regarding the property, such as gutter concerns, roofing condition, foundation condition, etc, he can always help us with his knowledge and experience, answer all our questions, did good research and always have a feedback. Also, Russ was not pushing us on anything, but always help us to keep everything on track and not miss anything. We love the way he processed things, which made us very comfortable. As a first-time home buyer, we changed our goal from house to condo to multi-family to house to condo for several times, and Russ was super patient and did his best in helping us find the best solutions. I would definitely work with Russ again, no matter is buying a second property or selling a property, and would definitely recommend Russ to anyone who wants to buy/sell properties.
Russ was a diligent and excellent realtor when it came to finding and purchasing my first home. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a property.... A++++ Service and commitment
Very helpful and responsive. Russ is the man
Russ was great to work with and made our house hunting, buying and selling process seamless. He was flexible and knowledgeable when it came to house tours, putting our mind at ease that we were making the right decision for our family. He also kept lines of communication open, so we were always in the loop on updates. He offered value and a fresh perspective, bringing up considerations that we hadn't thought of on our own. He also went above and beyond to ensure our prior home was ready for open houses and showings. Those extra steps were received well by potential buyers and led to a great offer! We'd be happy to work with Russ again and recommend him to first time or seasoned home buyers!
We really enjoyed working with Russ. Russ is very patient and helped us find the perfect home over a couple months of searching! With Russ' help we put in a competitive offer that was accepted same day. Russ also helped us navigate through a challenging negotiation process. We are so happy with our new home and know it was worth the wait! Russ also helped us sell our downtown condo with a quick and easy closing process!
Russ was amazing from start to finish. He's truly elite at what he does. He really made my process of buying a home for my family very seamless. I was so stressed out the entire process, but Russ was cool as ice, reassuring me that everything would be fine which it turned out that everything was in fact fine. I really needed that reassurance for sure. Russ is also a brilliant negotiator as he worked out favorable terms with the seller on my behalf that lead to me paying less for my home and paying way less than I expected at closing. There is no doubt that Russ will be the only guy helping me with my future home purchases for sure. Thank you, Russell, for all that you did and continue to do for not just myself but for others.
