"Gary stuck with us when we were leaving California to relocate to Florida. He was with us even when we were not in a position to look for a house at the time. When we were ready Gary found us the perfect house! I would recommend Gary to anyone who is looking for a home in central Florida. Thanks Gary for being so patient with us!"
--LouAnn Kirby

"Gary was great to work with! He was dedicated in helping me find my new home in Florida while I was still living in Ohio. It was a long two year process and he was patient and never pressured me. Once I was ready to buy, Gary went above and beyond to help me close on my home quickly and efficiently. He was very knowledgeable about the process and was a great resource. He offered his opinion when I asked and helped me to consider things I hadn’t thought of throughout the process. I’ll definitely reach out to Gary for all of my future real estate needs. I highly recommend him and his team to all my friends and family!"
