John, I just wanted to touch base with you as we have not spoken since the sale of my parents home 3 weeks ago. I understand how busy you are as we are and conversing is not always easy due to ones priorities. I wanted to commend you on a job well done in the expedient sale of their home in Franklin. From the very start of the listing of the home, You were very professional in your demeanor. You gave your honest opinion on your thoughts about marketing the house for a timely sale. The experience you have achieved over many years was exhibited in the formulation for strategy to sell the house in such a weak economy. You had great patience in explaining everything to my parents in detail. And the trust that they confined in you was achieved effortlessly. It was amazing to see the gift you have in dealing with senior citizens and especially the way you handled my parents. Your marketing ability to advertise the house was incredible. You utilized numerous avenues of advertisement, involved realtors from other real estate companies, MLS, internet and many other tools in order to sell the house. I lost count of how many times the house was shown to prospective qualified buyers in such a short time. The sale of the house was a smooth transaction and the buyers were able to close within a month. I would recommend you to anyone who is looking for a realtor who is not afraid to work. Congratulations on a job well done.
- Sincerely, Ray Manns, Jul 25, 2011
