Client Testimonlials - continued

We have been married for over thirty years and this is not the first house we have ever bought.

Dave, however, is the finest Realtor we have ever dealt with.

From start to finish, Dave was attentive to our wants and needs as we worked with him buying a new house and home. He was honest, articulate, and quick with a response to all the questions we had.

His excellent follow through to see that all went well after we purchased the house was an added bonus and a fine example of his character.

We are not only extremely pleased with our experience with Dave, we have also recommended him to several of our friends and acquaintances who are contemplating buying a home.

Thanks, Dave, for all you have done for us,

Mel and Kim

Dave

Thank you for everything you have done for us. You made buying our first home a great experience. We enjoyed having many "firsts" with you. You went above and beyond for us and we are very thankful for all your hard work. Looking forward to having our house warming party!

Nicki and Todd P.
Dave stepped in and helped me find a home in the price range and area of Salem I preferred. He was very attentive to my needs and made the process less stressful than the previous times that I bought a home.

Thanks Dave for all you did to make my dream a reality.

Dan H.
Dave helped us find our first home in the area of South Salem we wanted, but didn't think we could afford. All transactions were handled through Dave, making the process painless and rewarding.

We loved the extras Dave provides like new address post cards to send to friends and the welcome to the neighborhood party he threw in our honor, inviting the neighbors over to meet us and get acquainted. It is more than a sale for Dave. His goal is building relationships.

I strongly recommend Dave to list your home. He goes the extra mile in marketing your home.

While I wasn’t able to sell my home at the price we wanted in today’s market Dave pulled out all the stops and used every tool available to make sure my home was visible on the market. Not only does he use all the marketing methods available to him through Coldwell Banker Mountain West Real Estate, the number one marketing firm in the Willamette Valley, he also effectively uses all the other Internet and Broker resources available.

When we weren’t initially having any showings of my home, Dave stimulated broker showings by having a drawing for brokers that showed my home by July 4^th. We had showings during and after the drawing. He kept me updated on market conditions every two weeks with a printout of homes coming on the market and homes sold in my home’s category during the last two weeks. His featured/enhanced ads on the Realtor.com Internet site not only brought more Internet exposure to my home, but also allowed me to see the number of weekly web-hits those ads were getting for my home.

I feel confident that when the market turns Dave will be able to get me the price I want for my home.

Dave keeps you updated on market conditions every two weeks with a printout of homes coming on the market and homes sold in your home’s category.
