My parents referred us to Gregory. He sold their townhome and found them a perfect villa to purchase. We are so glad we hired him as our realtor! Prior to listing our house, the advice he gave us was spot on. We addressed each item he mentioned, and our house sold in three days!! Gregory is a dedicated professional, and always has his client’s best interest in mind. When it is time to look at houses, he is your guy! He has an eye for detail and was able to point out problematic areas in the homes my husband and I missed. He is a wealth of knowledge too! For example, we wanted a home with a pool. Gregory was able to provide us with information of approximate costs to have a pool, screened in patio, and fence installed. If he doesn’t have the information you need, he knows someone who does! He is a great listener; therefore, he can find a home that will “check off the boxes” on your wants/needs list. My husband and I refer our friends to Gregory whenever we have the opportunity because he is not just the best realtor in Bradenton, he is a great person as well. Thank you for everything, Gregory!
Does a good job for his clients. Goes the extra mile in customer service.
Gregory was extremely attentive and responsive while my husband and I were in the process of purchasing our condo. We live out of state and he was very helpful in walking us through the whole process of buying our new home. I would certainly work with him again if given the opportunity as he went above and beyond his role as a realtor.
