CLIENT TESTIMONIALS “We appreciated Mardon’s & Henry’s expertise in the housing industry during the process of selling our home of 22 years. They gave us suggestions but listened to what we wanted. They weren’t pushy in any way. They were helpful when we had questions and very patient since we hadn’t sold a home in many years; and we had lots of questions. They were available to us through each step. A pleasure to work with!” “The Hickford Group is amazing! Went out of their way on more than one occasion to accommodate our schedule. Couldn’t be happier with our end results on both ends of the deal.” “Who knew realtors do more than just show houses?! Mardon and Henry did that and so much more! They got to know us and what we wanted in a house. When we found the “one”, they talked us through negotiations, went through the inspection report (twice!), and got us into our first home. Communication was amazing, prompt, and thorough. In everything, I felt like I was a part of all of the steps and that they were working to make this a good experience for us. We now count them as friends and I look forward to working with them again…in a while.” “Was very pleased from beginning to end. Knowledge of the market was good and critical in setting a price to sell in a timely manner. Handling of the process throughout was very professional. Would recommend them to anyone buying or selling in the area.” “Mardon and Henry were fantastic to work with! Their market knowledge of locations is top notch. We really felt like they listened to what our wants were and exceeded our expectations. We could not recommend them more highly and will definitely use them again.” “Extremely knowledgeable and makes the process of buying a house easy.”
