We were first time home buyers who were looking to work with a “guide” / an “educator” and not a “salesperson”. For buyers, Neil is just that ! Before going with Neil, we had talked to others agents as well but felt a level of comfort with Neil, who after understanding our needs got on it right away. He is very knowledgeable – knows the market in and out and we had a TON of questions for him at every stage. He answered those and helped us navigate our search, offer, purchase process with ease. During the process, there were times we felt like buying more (bigger / pricier) house than what we needed, but Neil offered his valuable suggestions, explaining the pros and cons, helping us stay focused, as opposed to just going along, even though a pricier house was more money for him as well. This is what separates a GREAT real estate professional from everyone else. We highly recommend him and look forward to working with him in the future as well
