Overall, we were extremely impressed with the level of service we received from Dick. All of our expectations were exceeded by Dick’s knowledge of the marketplace and his attention to detail. Dick was honest and forthright about the state of the market and listened carefully to our expressed needs and desires. As a result, the search was efficient and effective, ultimately resulting in the purchase of a home that suited us perfectly. In the end, we got a great home for the right price. In the past, we have had many negative experiences with agents whose approach was to simply show everything on the market, without listening to what we wanted. Dick listened and delivered.
We found Dick through his ad in a local real estate publication. The ad was beautifully done and attracted us immediately to his business. The ad was for an Alexander home, and perfectly illustrated the attractiveness of the Palm Springs life style. The ad provided an important glimpse into the manner in which Dick markets his business and provided insight for us into his competence and business acumen.
Once on the job, Dick worked tirelessly on our behalf. Understanding that we were from out of the area, he was careful to first provide a history of the community and introduced us to the uniqueness that is Palm Springs architecture. His spending the time to give us this context was an effective way to determine our interest in the local real estate market.
Having helped us select the property that we were to purchase, Dick set out to negotiate a fair offer on our behalf. He precisely calculated what would become the final price, and clearly understood our desire to not exceed that price. He expertly negotiated with the seller’s agent to get the terms and conditions that we requested. We were extremely satisfied with result and the process.
We would not hesitate to recommend Dick as an agent. Overall, our experience was enjoyable and rewarding. Dick made that happen for us and we will feel indebted to him for many years for having done so.
