| from Mauricio E. Escobar and Jacqueline Rigoni |  | We were immediately impressed that you took us seriously, even though we were first-time homebuyers with no loan pre-qualification yet. Amazingly, you guys were the only ones with the follow-through to call us back and treat us like you really wanted to work with us. What we saw on that first day with you continued to be true throughout the whole process of our home buying experience. When it came to negotiating for us, you struck a great balance advising us based on your experience and went way beyond the call of duty. And besides, you guys were just plain fun. After all that, it shouldn't have surprised us then, that you checked in with us even after we moved in. We couldn't be hapier to have gotten such a great house at a great price. We owe it to you for helping us find the perfect home in which to start our family. |
| from Al Baccei |  | When I first decided to list my home and move to San Carlos, you two were recommended to me from both a friend and a relative who said you two were "The Real Estate Experts of San Carlos". After interviewing several other companies, it was obvious the winner was the two of you. Everything about you two from your professionalism to enthusiasm for your job impressed me. I felt like I was kept informed every step of the way...you guys were right, I did get two Realtors for the price of one. When it came to finding me a home in San Carlos, you two were no less diligent. You listened to my needs and showed me homes that fell right into my "wish list". Because there were multiple offers on my own purchase, I feel your reputation with your fellow Realtors is what got me this house. You will undoubtably be my Realtors for life! |
| from Dave Denny President, Inside Source |  | I am writing to once again thank you for helping me sell my home. As you know, I struggled with whether to sell, and if so, whether I would get my price. Your knowledge of real estate helped me to make the decision to sell. More importantly, your diligence helped me get the most out of the sale. You pulled together the people necessary to get the house in selling condition for next to nothing and with out spending any of my time. You kept me informed throughout the process and helped me with making critical decisions. Because of your experience, commitment and resourcefulness, we were able to get what we wanted for the home. I will definately refer you to anyone I know who is buying or selling a home. |
| from Scott Burner |  | I chose Dave and Steve because of their no nonsense approach. Their resumes impressed me and I could not believe how many homes Dave and Steve had sold in the last eighteen years. During the listing period, I went on vacation so Dave and Steve volunteered to take care of the house. I thought I would have to pay someone to do this but Dave and Steve had said they are full service Realtors. Dave and Steve did an outstanding job. |
| from John Raleigh, Raleigh Engineering |  | A friend of mine referred me to Dave Parks and Steve Hicks of Gateway Properties with a glowing recommendation. When I met with Dave and Steve I liked their style. I hired Dave and Steve to market my home and was very impressed how attentive Dave and Steve were during the sale. Ulike most other agents, they personally handled every detail. Dave and Steve told me that they were always available and encouraged me to always call either of their cell phones as that is the best way to reach them. Every time I tell others that Dave Parks and Steve Hicks are my Realtors, they always have nice things to say about them, they have great reputations with their fellow agents. I have referred Dave and Steve to several friends who needed the assistance of a professional Realtor and will gladly keep referring their names to anyone who wants personalized, professional service. |
| from Darby Forrest |  | Thank you very much for the stellar service you gave to my clients. They think very highly of you and are greatful for your efficient and responsive service. They were very happy with the quick sale and smooth escrow. I also thank you for your referral fee, which was most generous, however, the most important aspect for me was that the Miller's were so well taken care of. You can count on me to continue referring my Bay Area clients and friends to you. |
| from Magda A. Hendry |  | When it became time to sell the family home, I made inquiries and conducted several interviews for what could have been a confusing and stressful process. Fortunately, choosing you and your firm to be my agents made the journey from listing to close of escrow a smooth and informative one.The timing for each step along the way went as you had explained and even the final cleanups and inspections were conveniently scheduled. I can't thank you enough for your professional help and consideration in making the selling of my home a pleasant experience and I would recommend your firm to anyone needing an agent who pays attention to and eases his client's worries. |
| from Roy and Joan Ebbel |  | We truly appreciate you following up on the request to check the loan. You have both been very professional from the start and we respect the fact that you follow up on everything you promise to do! Quite remarkable in this era of easy talk and little follow up! Both of us feel comfortable working with you so we will stay in contact. We have a lot to consider in the coming months. Thanks for everything you have done so far! |
| from William A. Davey, CRS/CRB Broker/President |  | We at Prudential California Realty, Inc. would like to thank you for your professionalism in the sale of 441 Rutherford Ave. in Redwood City. It is always a pleasure dealing with a true professional. I hope we will have an oppourtunity to work with you again soon. Again, thank you for your fine effort! |
| from "Landmark Properties" |  | I recently referred a client to Gateway Properties. Dave and Steve were unfailingly courteous, accessible and always gave realistic sound advice to our mutual clients. They clearly understand the Real Estate market and the clients benefitted from their knowledge. In addition, they listened attentively to mine and the clients concerns and throughout the entire selling process I felt that they always had our clients, as well as my firms interests in mind. This, in addition to the generous referral fee offered makes Gateway Properties my only option when considering a Bay Area referral. |
| from "Relocation Solutions" |  | We need Realtors who understand thier market and can assist our transferees with the many details involved in the purchasing process. We find that Gateway Properties is sensitive to the needs of the relocating employee. The agents listen carefully, respond appropriately and are service oreinted. Moreover, thier follow-up with us is timely and consistent. Anyone can show property, but working with Gateway Properties in this competitive market has resulted in happy clients at a successful close of escrow. |
| From Janis A. Tardiff |  | Every single day since I moved in August 2002, I have come home and walked to the front door with a big smile on my face, and of course, I truly do not believe that I would have found such a wonderful home if it were not for you. From the moment you called to arrange a time for us to meet, the experience was a pure joy.You found me the cutest house in San Carlos, and for all of those people who say that realtors don't listen, I tell them they should of worked with you. Thank you again for everything you did to help me buy the perfect home. |
| From Rich and Diane Holman |  | We wanted to drop this note to you to let you know how much we appreciate all your work in helping us sell our house, and to find our new home. We honestly feel that without the hard work you put in, we would have not have the home we always dreamed of owning. With in two weeks of listing our house with you, we had a offer well above the asking price. You made sure that everything went smoothly and the deal was done. We have not hesitated to tell others who are realtors were, nor will we hesitate to give your names to anyone looking for professional, friendly real estate agents. |
| From Cathy and Joe Garcia |  | We were so pleased and happy with your services. We love our new house and feel so lucky to have it. Your input and assistance was outstanding, Thank you for being so efficient. |
