★★★★★
" Phil was the buyers agent on the first condo I sold. He did such a good job putting a fair deal together for both sides that I hired him as the listing agent for the second condo. Living out of state made me very dependent on Phil and having him there for me saved a lot of stress. He preformed at the highest level including going above the typical scope of work by assisting with staging, cleaning, minor electrical and cosmetic touch ups. With the events of 2020 mounting and a tough real estate market, Phil doubled down on showings, marketing and delivered everything I could have asked for. I would have been lost with out his guidance. "

★★★★★

During houses and showings, we received wonderful feedback from all potential clients noting his enthusiasm, professionalism and knowledge of the , the neighborhood and current . Phil was also prepared and knowledgeable in our first meeting, which gave us assurance in his work and how we priced the . This confidence in him was again evidenced in how he showed up professionally during inspections, accommodating buyer’s requests, coordinating schedules, negotiations, etc. It was clear we were a priority and we are thankful to him helping make the sale process a successful one! "

★★★★★
" Phillip is extraordinary, he loves to build a relationship and takes his time in making sure the client is confident with his purchase but also guides us through the process, meaning recommending us the best based his experience, most of the time us clients are very indecisive because it a natural thing and we feel like we might be missing out on other opportunities out there but Phillip ensures us that we are making the right purchase.
