"We had many questions and were even skeptical to buy during the peak of the market but Dan was very transparent and reassuring the entire time. With the right plan and strategy Dan was able to get us our dream home under asking price! We could not be happier with our purchase and we have continued to rave and recommend Dan to our friends and family (we even received $500 for doing so)!"

"It’s very confusing and almost scary in the home purchasing process especially if you’re a first time homebuyer like my partner & I. So many little things to know and so many confusing terms I’ve never even heard of, but of course Dan is there right by your side giving you a hand in explaining things and also helping securing your dream place."

He provided multiple game plans for us to choose based on our wants, needs and expectations and consistently kept us up to date on what the next best move is. We sold our home in less than a week for over asking!"
