One of your real estate agents, John Harms, assisted us with this purchase thru your firm. His help was above and beyond what we or anyone could have expected. He provided valuable counsel thru the negotiation and worked us thru more details and questions than I can count. Since we were not on-site, he was always there to take care of what needed to happen, working thru the building inspection and follow up on inspection issues. And he continues to look out for us, as we are still held up waiting for virus vaccination and cannot yet travel to our new home. He certainly deserves your recognition. Ron & Bunny Taylor
We would like to say thank you to both Janie Vaughan & John Harms. Janie made the whole process a positive one. Her energy, her willingness to assist us in any way, her upbeat friendly attitude was just wonderful! Janie's communication toolbox was full. Her texts, phone calls, emails & notices when something had to be signed or decided were quick and clear. No balls were dropped. John was so relaxed and kind. We never felt any pressure from either agent. They both made us feel like we had two new Florida friends. We love our new home.
I recently bought a beautiful condo in the Cape Haze area. And thanks to John Harms the entire process went very smoothly. He was very knowledgeable and familiar with what was available in the area. He showed several condos and was very patient in answering my many questions. During the contract phase he was very attentive to detail and was an advocate for me. I felt very assured that what I was doing was the absolute right thing. And that is a feeling that no amount of money can buy.
