Richard is a great realtor! He is very professional and more importantly, very patient! I am a first-time home buyer, so I literally knew nothing at the beginning. He walked me through everything, and taught me a lot of things about houses/condos. He has
been extremely helpful - he did not just what a realtor should do, but way beyond that! I have to say, without him, I would not have my own home such soon. My condo (a townhouse) needs some updates, and Richard has been helping me with everything else! I just
moved here few months ago, and as a first-time home buyer, I don't have any connections here and knew nothing about remodeling a home. Besides that, I am busy with my job, so I have no time and energy to take care of the work. Without him, I would not dare
to buy this condo. So, I really appreciate Richard's work and help. Thank you Richard! Highly recommend if you need a realtor!
Rich, kept us updated at all times throughout the entire process.
He went above expectations.

Richard helped me buy and sell my first house. He was professional, prompt, and communicated exceptionally. Great guy to work with. Thanks Richard!
A review alone cannot express how much Rich has helped me, and continues to do so. He went above, beyond and came back again with my home buying experience, and always did it with a smile, and helpful attitude. He is highly knowledgeable, smart, funny,
and a very skilled negotiator, with a large network of contacts; from lenders to inspectors to other realtors, if I ever needed anything he knew a reliable and trustworthy person to handle it. I wouldn't want anyone else helping me through such an important
event in life as buying my first home. I consider Rich not only as my realtor, but as a role model, someone to count on, and also my friend.
Thank you so much Rich.

Rich Child worked with us to purchase a home and to sell a condo.
Rich is a consummate professional. He’s on top of everything and keeps his client very informed. If I make another purchase or sale I’ll ask Rich to handle it.
