“Brian was very attentive. There was a regular activity of buyers coming through the home. We never felt that we were one of many of Brian’s clients, but rather the only client. He was very dedicated to our success in selling our home. He is very personable and we never felt that this was just a business transaction for Brian. He respected that this was not simply a house, but rather our family home of 43 years.” — L.E.
