Testimonials

“Tom proved himself to be patient, encouraging and knowledgeable about the entire process. He was always willing to listen to my perspective but at the same time was a fount of information, with a great network of resources including mortgage lenders, contractors, title companies…The passion dedication and understanding Tom brings to (The Home Buying) process makes him a truly exceptional Realtor, one that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a property in Philadelphia”- C.Royer

“The support and advice we received up to this point (Offer) would be enough to heap the highest praises upon Margaret and Tom. What was truly phenomenal though was that as negotiations were proceeding, we were on the road to our new lives in Portland Oregon. Margaret and Tom handled all the aspects of the documentation up to the settlement/closing without us being there! They even checked on our house weekly until the sale was complete. We give them our highest marks and thank them so much. If we ever move back to Philadelphia we will be calling Margaret and Tom….” Jon Graf & Katherine Genn
