When we decided to sell our house, choosing a good realtor did not seem so important. First, we decided to do it 'ourselves' as we were not so pressed with time. Three months and ten or more 'Open Houses' later we decided to use the services of a 'low rate' agency. Unfortunately, that did not work either. With this system, other than their percentage, the buyers' agency still requires you to pay half of a full commission. Therefore, not enough incentives for the buyer's agent to encourage his/her customers if you are not willing to pay up! This experience also lasted three months with no result. Then we found you... During our short-term venture, we experienced a very pleasant, friendly, very professional and straightforward relationship. We would like to take this opportunity to thank every member in your team for his or her hard and efficient work. Now, almost eight months later and after a successful sale we know that we made a good decision in choosing the BEST and we would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone who is in need of a perfect real estate office. Best personal regards, Jem and Sebnem S
