Ollie sold my mom's place for above asking in Citadel Heights, and I would absolutely go with him again for a number of reasons:

1. He gave us a lot of personal attention, was easy to get a hold of, and, I can't overstate how helpful this is: he helped to keep us on top of many important things of our sale (and purchase) that we may have forgotten about otherwise

2. He was also straight shooting - he set what I thought were realistic expectations on price, timing, and the sales process. He didn't tell us just what we wanted to hear to get our business. Contrasting his approach with another realtor, we felt that we would get more attention from him, that he cared more about getting us a better price by suggesting many improvements we could make to help the sale, and that he would work harder for us. We agreed with his approach and followed most of his advice to try to make the sale a success. Some things were a lot of work and we weren't sure would help, like painting, staging, and updating fixtures, but all said and done, it was clear that all the work greatly updated the look and feel of the house - it looked like a feature from a magazine. At that point, I was confident that we had put our best foot forward

3. When it came time to list, his sales experience was on display, as he strategized around a recent listing in our area to maximize the viewings, scheduled open houses on the weekend, and got in as many viewings as he could to drum up as much interest as possible. I feel he pulled out all the stops to make our listing as successful as possible, and he really knocked it out of the park for us!

He also helped us purchase a condo for my mom, and again, he held our hand, made sure everything went smoothly, and was always focused on getting us what we want at a great price.

Throughout our interactions, not only did he know what he was doing, we found he has a strong sense of integrity and responsibility. He really wanted us to be satisfied with everything and in that he certainly exceeded our expectations.
