Let me start by saying that I'm generally not one to hand out reviews, especially 5 star reviews. But boy did Bill earn all 5 of his stars! We were referred to him by three different people in town so we figured we’d give him a call one day thinking we already knew what we wanted as long time “window shoppers”. Ultimately, Bill would challenge us all in the right ways; though he did not challenge us immediately. First, he showed us several of the houses that we had *thought* we were looking for and asked us what we saw in them so he could better understand our perspective. Once he had gained a thorough understanding of our situation and true needs, he started to enlighten us on a number of topics that ultimately better informed our decision-making process and landed us our dream home. Bill could have easily made a quick sale and been on his way with house #1 that he showed us, which we were dead set on and were eager to make an offer. Instead he told us "I can't, in good conscience, recommend this house." He asked us to instead review some of the other houses we were interested in through his trained eye, before walking us through another house that he felt like was a better fit for our family. Low and behold, the house Bill recommended was the house we went with, and boy are we happy we listened! Through the entire process of working with him, I learned that Bill is first and foremost a man of integrity, not just trying to make a buck or meet a KPI. He proved that on day 1. From there out, I came to understand his deep knowledge of local builders, maintenance & repair costs, extensive network and understanding of local tradesman who either had performed or could perform certain tasks on subject houses, as well as an impressive ability to get us exclusive showings on houses that weren’t quite ready to be shown. To top it all off, Bill was able to work out a way to sell our previous home in the same deal with the seller of our new home. During a time when contingencies can make-or-break locking in a purchase and sales and we fully expected to have to float our old home, Bill moved mountains to ensure we had a clean and easy transaction and closed on our house the same day/time we closed on the new house, at the same closing! Talk about thinking outside the box!

Sara was perfect for our family. She was readily available whenever I had questions or concerns around the process. I wish I had more words to express my gratitude for what she did to help us find the right place. When we finally landed on the home we purchased, she honestly dropped what she was doing and got us into seeing the house within an hour what more could you ask for then someone who always puts you first. We are so happy we chose to work with this group and would not have changed anything about this. Thank You!!!

I chose Linda Gardiner to list and sell my house based on the excellent reviews I read on line. I was not disappointed. Linda is very knowledgeable and professional in every way, from our first meeting through the closing. I highly recommend Linda and her company, Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, The Masiello Group.

It is a pleasure to write about my experience selling my property in Stoddard with the wise and gentle support and guidance of Cindy Recklinghausen. From the very beginning of our process of working together to make this sale happen, I could tell that Cindy not only cared about me and my need to sell the property and move on in my life, but that she also cared about the buyers and what it meant to them to own the place. The Real Estate biz can be tough, and often, properties are treated by realtors as mere commodities- Big cash numbers are considered success. While of course the numbers are important to buyer, seller and agent, more important is the quality of life a home brings to the people who inhabit them. For a chapter, or a few chapters of our lives, regardless of the monetary value, our homes are critical to our happiness, general well-being, and the precious memories that will be formed there. Cindy is one of the rare real estate professionals (and I've known a few), who understands that the transfer of a home is about so much more than the money. She is also highly ethical in her practice. She works for the buyer or seller exclusively, with no murky gray areas of concern about whose interests she represents. And Cindy really works! She was always a step ahead of me in the process, explaining what was happening. Not once did I have difficulty reaching her with thoughts or questions. She was ready and willing to start again from scratch when we hit a tough spot in the sale, but we were all happy to work it out. The point is, she was willing to do whatever it would take to make the sale happen at the terms I was hoping for as a seller. And lo-and-behold, it all worked out beautifully for seller, buyer and agent. Win-win-win. I highly recommend Cindy to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. She's the real thing and a real caring soul, no bs. Glenn Stan

Holly did a great job. From her original market assessment, her assistance in preparing the property for market, and her professional diligence and results - she did a great job. Excellent communication and follow through. She navigated both the commercial and residential components to produce the best result.

Christa came to us in June and got us started on our sale. She was above board on all information, explaining fees, taxes and other expenses we could expect with a sale. After signing the contract, she brought us numerous prospects at the same time representing three or four other clients in the subdivision. She always called ahead for appointments, giving us time to prepare and she came about 15 minutes early to make sure the house was ready to show. We felt very comfortable with her clients as we knew she checked them out in advance. At one point she recommended we reduce the sale price, which we did. Later we reduced it again and that is when the real interest picked up. Her advice was right on target. After each showing, she contacted and gave us feedback on what the client said. We would be happy to recommend Christa in the future. She did a great job, got us a good contract and was able to sell three houses in Duck Cove in a very short time. We could not be happier with the outcome and thank Christa for dedication to our sale. Dieter and Sharon Kuhn
