I couldn't have asked for a better partner in selling my townhome. Rich is an excellent listener, with a genuine commitment to high quality service and relationship, and a consistent attention to detail. As someone who values prompt and direct communication, punctuality, follow-through, and expertise, I was enormously grateful to have found Rich and to work together. I enjoy real estate and have developed a sturdy foundation of systems knowledge and relationships, so it was a real pleasure to build on that with Rich -- his patience, know-how, and ability to build and maintain trust are unrivaled. I wholeheartedly recommend him, and look forward to any future opportunities to work together.

I first met Rich is Jul 2024 and began the process of finding a home in Cary upon my relocation from California. We looked at many houses and areas in the greater Raleigh area then and again in Nov 2024 and March 2025. In the interim, Rich set me up to receive automated MLSs in my location of interest area and price range. Miraculously I was in Cary when a listing came up that I knew I needed to see immediately. Rich met me there an hour later, and we immediately began the offer paperwork. Although I was in California moving and selling my house there, Rich was the "boots on the ground" in the Cary area and was on top of everything and kept me well informed. If I didn't understand something, he thoroughly explained it to me. Not only does he have the expertise in real estate, but he's just a really nice guy who I now consider a friend.

Rich went above and beyond to help us find our house that we eventually purchased in the research triangle area of North Carolina. We moved from Indiana to North Carolina and knew nobody here! Therefore, we knew nothing about the area. He walked us through everything we needed to know. For each city we looked at in the triangle area (Raleigh, Durham, Pittsboro, Mebane, Hillsborough, and Haw River)...6 cities(!), he knew about the local spots. He was with us throughout the entire process. We decided to buy a new build home under construction. Because we were in Indiana, Rich took it upon himself to drive by the house (over 30 minutes out of his way) to give us updates on the builder's progress. He stayed in touch with the builder to make sure all our questions were answered every step of the way. He's trustworthy and honest! You can't go wrong with Rich. Very professional and down to earth.

Rich was amazing through our process of purchasing a new home and selling our old house in time to close for the new home. We had signed a contract for the new home before even listing our old home, which we needed to sell prior to closing on the new home. Rich advised us and represented us for both the purchase and sale. He referred us to the professionals that we needed along the way including the folks that worked with us for financing when our old lender fell through. Rich showed us homes from Greensboro to the east side of raleigh and as far south as Pittsboro where we ended up purchasing over a significant period of time without ever making us feel any pressure to select or commit to any of the homes. He listened to our needs and desires and worked with us. Aside from al of this Rich is just a genuinely NICE guy. It’s great to find a business partner who in the end you consider a friend. Highly recommended!!!

We had a great experience with Rich! All in all, the process of thinking on the numerous areas throughout the Triangle, and then even to the level of which neighborhood we wanted to live took about five months and Rich was very patient with us over this time. In the end we bought our new home with Rich and sold our current one with him as well as we trusted him and felt comfortable with him throughout the process of buying. Rich was even able to coordinate a same day close on both homes, which is becoming more increasingly difficult. Rich has a great knowledge of the area, always did his homework and came to each showing with all of the information we needed, he always arrived at places early to inspect it himself and to show us things we might miss, and he also has a construction background which was very helpful as many homes we looked at we considered various contract work. We would strongly recommend Rich, who provides an experience anyone would want in buying or selling a home. He was very responsive, coached us, was patient, had a great list of contractors and vendors who created a great listing for the home we were selling (photos, power washing, advertising, etc.) and then lined up all jobs we needed done on our new home.

Rich picked up the pieces left by my first Realtor disaster. It wasn't a great time to be selling, but he made it happen. I will always be grateful for his kindness, great communication skills and expertise in getting me to Texas and my Grandkids.
