Working with Jeff was an absolute pleasure! He was very efficient and professional. We had a difficult situation (to say the least) but Jeff made it very easy for us to navigate and eventually close in a timely manner. Jeff not only helped us buy a beautiful second home, but he helped us sell our condo in less than a week during a difficult time. He was a very effective negotiator and worked with all parties involved in order to obtain a fantastic result for all parties. I have already referred Jeff to friends and acquaintances, one who has already purchased with Jeff and I know he is satisfied with his experience as well. Jeff, thank you again for your help.
Jeff was amazingly thorough, organized and calming during the entire process. Selling a home during a pandemic tests everything and everyone - and Jeff always appeared totally in control and focused. I’m not sure anyone else would have helped me as much as Jeff to come through the whole process in ‘one piece’
Jeff was very professional while at the same time very friendly. He has gone out of his way many times to take care of many issues that would have been difficult for us being 1,200 miles away.
