David S.

I hired Richard to help me find a house in the Virginia Highlands. He was outstanding. So much so, that I referred him to my parents six months later. He helped them find a town-home in the Sandy Springs area. Richard is smart, diligent, responsive and a good negotiator. A completely different league from the agent I hired in 2000 when I bought my prior house. I'm was a demanding client (I'm an attorney) and he exceeded my expectations. If I ever buy another house he will represent me then as well.

To start with, Richards knows his market. That's priceless. Richard is extremely amicable and has a great personality. You will have a hard time getting him out of balance regardless of what you "throw at him". Our house buying experience was extremely complicated with a lot of twists and turns due to issues with financing. Richard helped us navigate these uncharted waters, and in the end was instrumental in getting the deal completed by ensuring that the seller stays gives us additional time to finalize everything. Many other would give up along the way facing the same set of complicated circumstances.

Richard is an outstanding real estate professional. He is knowledgeable about the real estate market and the process of home buying. He has numerous contacts in the industry to facilitate the selection and purchase processes. Richard is a skilled communicator and uses those skills in both listening to client needs as well as communicating those as needed during the negotiation process. We have purchased two properties through Richard and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an expert.

Richard is the most incredible realtor in the ATL! Not only did he find our condo for us to buy five years ago... he sold it for us in record time! He takes the time to listen, find out what your needs are... and boom! He makes it happen! He made both our condo purchase and sale a breeze! Rock on Richard!

Joe E.

Richard simply is the best and most professional Realtor you will find in Atlanta. He has helped us close when we were buying and selling, buying a rental property, selling rental property, and helped me navigate the landlord process. He is quick to listen, but will also fight for you when needed. I wouldn't have anyone else list my property or help me find a new one. You will have total comfort with Richard during the entire process.
