We just closed this morning and we could not he happier. To say that Gregory goes above and beyond is an understatement. Not only does he keep you in the loop, but makes referrals and works tirelessly to find you the right home. We were so happy, my nephew used him and he also bought a house from Gregory. I have texted him at 630 in the morning and 10pm at night and he always responds. He is also pleasant and cheerful and has a great sense of humor. Gregory is not only our realtor but has become our lifelong friend. Thanks Gregory for everything!
Gregory was terrific to work with throughout the process. Very easy to reach on short notice, enjoyable to work with and very knowledgeable about every aspect of the process. I recently closed on the purchase of a house on the ocean on Anna Marie and living in another state I quickly learned that the Florida home buying process was very different from my home state. Gregory helped guide me through all the nuances of Florida real estate. He has already worked with a referral of mine and I highly recommend that anyone looking for property in Florida reach out to Gregory.
We can not speak highly enough about our amazing experience with Gregory. He is a true professional and his experience and knowledge made our recent Bradenton home purchase go seamlessly. He was organized, punctual and accurate with the information he shared with us. We highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase in this area.
