A professional with over 20 years of experience in strategy, innovation, marketing and business development, Richard possesses the skills, expertise and passion for "the hunt" which is a role he now assumes on behalf of his buyers and sellers.
This comes by way of having been a trusted advisor for a diverse list of clients who regularly came to him with unique expectations, unimaginable needs and lofty demands. All of which he successfully managed throughout his career and continues to do so without hesitation.
Richard graduated from Villanova University with degrees in Psychology and Communications. He has worked in both corporate and entrepreneurial environments and has also owned and operated a marketing firm, digital media network and an innovation and strategic growth agency.

Client Testimonials

“As a seasoned agent, it makes a HUGE difference which agent is on the other side of the transaction. This is also an important variable that I always consider when selecting which buyer to pick as the agent's reputation and proven ability to work together seamlessly and successfully to close a deal is of significant consideration.
I was very fortunate to list a house and to have Richard Greene’s clients win in a multiple bid scenario. Not only is Richard just incredibly pleasant to deal with, he is energetic, positive, responsive and a true team player. He always put in 100% effort and was an excellent communicator.
Richard demonstrated the perfect balance of advocating for his clients, while maintaining a professional and pleasant demeanor. I would work with Richard again in a heart beat.!
Next time, I am listing a house and have multiple offers, if Richard is one of the competing agents, his client’s will definitely be given an advantage just because he has proven that he is an agent who is reliable and true to his word.” - Lori, Real Estate Agent

"Rich Greene was a pleasure to work with. His communication throughout the entire process of this sale was straightforward and professional. He was easy to work with when we had any challenges, (which were few), his problem-solving skills were practical and we were able to formulate viable solutions. I look forward to working with him again." - Susan, Real Estate Agent

"When we began our search for a new home we had relatively low expectations with respect to how long it would take to find something we liked at a reasonable price point given the competitive market we were jumping into. Turned out this was not the case, and this is certainly thanks to our realtor Richard Greene!
With Rich's assistance we quickly found a home that we fell in love with. With his guidance we put in a competitive offer. He provided valuable advice in the initial offer and counter offer. He ensured we acted in a timely manner and included the necessary items in the offer to make it attractive to the seller.
With his guidance our final offer was accepted. This was the first home we put an offer on, and considering it was a strong sellers market with low inventory, to have it accepted was exceptional. Richard, along with the attorney recommended by him, ensured we had a very smooth process from offer to closing."
- Eric and Jennifer, Buyer and Seller
