If your buying or selling use Brian! He was professional, communicated with us and our buyers agent daily. He made things seem less and really helped us with any questions we had. He’s honest and we enjoyed having him as our agent!

Brian is fantastic. Brian knows the neighborhoods, the school districts, and the local scene. He knows houses and is diligent in his inspection. While you are walking through the house wondering if your couch will fit, he is visually inspecting all major systems, the roof, and the pool. He is not shy about giving you his opinion, which is valuable since his unbiased view gives you information you yourself may not be considering. Brian makes himself available - we visited the same house 5-6 times before finally pulling the trigger, which does not even count the 40 other visits we made during our search. When contract time comes, he knows what offer will seal the deal and negotiates well to boot. During escrow, he continues his first class service by ensuring everything goes smoothly until signing. Once you sign your contract with Brian, he will be with you every step of the way until you close. I could not recommend him more. Make the smart choice. Choose Brian.
