"I recently had the pleasure of working with Stefan as my realtor, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Being a first-time homebuyer, the process of buying a home, let alone a new build at that, was uncharted territory. However, working with Stefan provided such peace of mind.
From our first meeting, Stefan took the time to understand my needs and preferences, ensuring that every step of the homebuying process was manageable. His expertise about neighborhoods and builders was invaluable. I was grateful to lean on him when it came to navigating the complexities of purchasing a new build. Stefan's knowledge and guidance helped me make informed decisions and feel confident every step of the way.
He was always available to answer my questions, provide updates, and offer support. Stefan's dedication and professionalism are truly exceptional. Stefan went above and beyond to assist me with warranty items even after closing on my home. Thanks to him, my family and I are now happily settled in our beautiful new home. I highly recommend Stefan to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy realtor to walk alongside you in your homebuying journey. Thank you, Stefan, for making our dream home a reality!"- Ashleigh Ellington 07/08/2024

"Stefan did an amazing job helping me with an estate transaction. He was very knowledgeable about the process and had the right systems in place for a very smooth closing. I would definitely use Stefan and his team again."- Brad Young 06/18/2024

"I was blown away by the level of professionalism and high quality of work by Stefan and his team. I forwarded my listing to my friends and everyone agreed it looked like the kind of listing you might see on a multi-million dollar home. Amazing pictures, video, and listing. Stefan also relies heavily upon data to help set appropriate pricing, which I believe had a big part in the quick sale of my home in a down market. I can't recommend him highly enough!"-Wes Brown 05/10/2024

From the beginning, Stefan and his team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and local market knowledge. They took the time to understand our needs and preferences, guiding us through each step of the home-buying process with patience and expertise. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Stefan to anyone looking to buy a home."- Nick Stricker 06/11/2024

"I can't speak highly enough of my experience working with Stefan. Stefan provided valuable advice and guidance throughout the entire process and made a daunting undertaking manageable. He helped to set my expectations so that I was always prepared for what was coming next. Ultimately, he helped me reach my goals even as the market was rapidly cooling. I've had the pleasure of knowing Stefan for over 25 years and it brought me great comfort to know I was working with a friend. But I imagine all of his clients enjoy the feeling of working with a trusted friend, because that is the level of care and ethic of service that Stefan brings to his work."- Jennifer

"I'll cut right to the chase -- I can't imagine anyone better than Stefan! This was the first time we sold a house, and Stefan was understanding and professional, helping us decide the best list price and very useful tips on staging. He was in constant communication leading up to the house being listed officially, did an outstanding job marketing it and always brought in interested buyers. He did an outstanding job dealing with our eventual buyers, not only getting us the best price possible, but also shielding us from the ups and downs of the negotiations. He negotiated endlessly with the buyers to get us the best deal possible, thinking ahead to future problems that could be in store. The entire process moved so quickly, but Stefan was there the entire time to talk to us about what was happening and what our options were. Lastly, when we ran into issues with our security deposit at the end of the 7 day lease back, Stefan was a stabilizing force, helping us craft the best response to the buyer's actions and working tirelessly with their agent. He even made us whole when the other side could not see reason. We are so grateful we had him through this trying process. If anyone asks me whom they should enlist to sell their home, we both will immediately reply with: Stefan!"- Ali and Taylor

"Stefan is an absolute rockstar and made the stressful experience of preparing then selling a house as easy and enjoyable as I can possibly imagine. He was responsive and timely from the very first time I reached out to him and communicated very clearly about the timeline, milestones, and actions along the way. He helped us form a plan for listing the house and stuck to his commitments, adjusting as needed to external forces. He used comprehensive data to help guide us toward listing, set well-informed expectations, then proceeded to exceed them beyond anything we were anticipating. He was there for us throughout the entire process and made us feel like he cared as much as we did about our success. I can't imagine a better realtor and would use him again in a heartbeat."- John

His research found us a great home, and he was expert at negotiating a great deal for us. We couldn't be happier."- Rick & Eileen
