Throughout the entire process Mike was a wealth of knowledge and extremely accessible. He was also very keen with deep experience in solving some of the unique problems that we ran into. When we were finally ready to make an offer, he created a tailored offer letter and made sure all our paperwork was in order. We were able to lock in a great rate and closed within 35 days. Very smooth process and extremely pleased with the final outcome. Thanks, Mike, for your relentless patience over the years and helping deliver us into our happy home through your great work!

The team at Keller Williams led by Matt Dubas knew I was afraid to buy a house and pay twice the…read moremortgage costs as I had in my condo. They knew all this and yet reassured me that if I pay off all my bills I would be able to buy a home. My case was very difficult for them because before I could buy a house I needed to find a buyer for my condo which was badly in need of work. Plus I had a lot of pets and no way to really do a proper showing. However thanks to Gina (who was wonderful, btw) I was able to get a buyer for my condo. But this left me with a limited time to find a house. I found two homes I loved and put offers down on one. In 2006 when the time came to sign the paperwork for my condo I was called in and did everything in person, having someone on hand to explain to me what I was signing. Last year this did not happen. I got a whole bunch of emails with contracts from various places that the email asked me to auto sign with no one there to offer guidance or explain the forms to me. This was difficult for me because I am 60 years old and not tech-savvy. I could not read half of what I signed. My offer was accepted on the house. When I went to meet with Matt Dubas I asked when the inspection would be done on the house. He told me the inspection was waived. I had never agreed to this, nor would I if I had known one of the forms they deceptively slipped into one of those electronic email contracts had me sign this waiver. I was also not told during this meeting with Matt that I still had the ability to back out of the deal. Which I would have if I had known I could, because there was the other house I liked just as much. I moved into a home built in 1900 that needs a $30k roof replacement. I borrowed $6000 from a friend and settled for repairing the roof instead. After just one winter the siding is starting to peel off the house. I had a specialist out to look at the home and it will cost me $40k to get the house resided. Both of these things would have been brought to my attention if I had had the house inspected--which I DID want to happen and never happened. This realtor has told me several times that mine was one of the most difficult sales they have had. I truly think they snuck that form into the contract for me to unknowingly sign to get me into a house and be rid of me. The broker Brian Acey (also at Keller Williams) called me last week and told me there should have been a form I would have to sign to waive the inspection on the house--and someone on hand to explain to me that is what I was signing. That never happened. Mr. Acey also said I should have been informed after the fact that I still could back out of the deal. That never happened either. Mr. Acey then spoke to Matt and called me today. Now suddenly he is telling me "oh there was a form electronically sent that you signed" (auto signed). And when I reminded him of the things he told me over the phone last week, suddenly he doesn't "recall" saying any of that to me. I am 60 years old. I guess Mr Acey must assume I am a forgetful old lady with a poor memory, but I am not. I remember things very well and write down important things I am told in phone calls. But I guess lying through one's teeth and using deceptive tactics to get an older person barely able to make ends meet into a home they cannot afford to get rid of them is perfectly ok to do if you work for Keller Williams.

I engaged realtor Jeff Schumacher to sell my property with an unusual set of goals, which included…read morea quick closing, a 6-month rental agreement, and a buyer who intended to develop the property (our family's home for almost 60 years) in a manner that didn't overpower the surrounding residences. He fulfilled these and more with a solid purchase agreement the very day the property was listed. He has more than ten years experience in the local residential real estate market. Evidently this let him zero in on the offer that was most likely to deliver what I was after, since subsequent interactions with the buyer are proving Jeff's instincts to be correct. Throughout, Jeff's primary concern was providing a stress-free experience for me. His nearly 24-7 availability and facility with the all the different aspects of the sale process meant that my readiness to go to market was the only real delay. I would definitely recommend Jeff to anyone who wants an agent who puts them first and who is able to plot a sure course through all the decisions and legal agreements involved in selling a home.

This guy went so far above and beyond to help us secure our dream house. From helping us with our approval to spending time on the phone with the sellers to assure them we were solid if they accepted our offer . . . it is DAVE we credit with the sellers choosing us to buy their house. From that point on, Dave was there at every turn to be sure there wasn't even the smallest hiccup. It was smooth sailing, and he even entertained a phone call when my husband and I couldn't agree on an element of our financing that had us hugging it out when we hung up. Can you credit a mortgage lender with possibly saving your marriage? I'll let you be the judge on that! Truly, even our dumbest questions went well received and answered. Even on a weekend evening! I'm not sure when he sleeps, certainly not while he was on the job for us. He was readily available at every step. The guy was a dream to work with and we are now settled in our forever home. Eternally grateful, and will recommend for the rest of our lives. Thank you!

That's not really why you're reading reviews though...you want to know what kind of people make up NAF. Simple- Dave assembled a team of caring professionals who are knowledgeable in their craft and are able to break down these complicated topics into bite size pieces. They were with us every step of the way and never failed to pick up the phone or respond to a text. You might shop around and find a slightly better financial setup, but you open yourself to all sorts of unforeseen things. NAF will help you close on time and without any last minute hidden fees.

Jill possesses a wealth of knowledge and shares it generously. She taught us what to look for when touring homes and always put our long term goals first. She kept us rooted in reality, which enabled us to make smart, rational decisions in an otherwise highly emotional process. Going through the home buying process for the first time could feel overwhelming and scary, but not with Jill at the helm. We always felt informed, educated and prepared every step of the way. Lastly and most importantly, Jill gives you the guidance to make an informed decision and THE SPACE to make it. You will never feel pressured into a decision and/or get biased guidance from Jill. She puts your goals/needs/comfort first. Needless to say, we ended up purchasing a home that we are over the moon in love with. We found a place that ticked all of the most critical boxes. Jill never let us settle, give up or give in and we can't thank her enough. If you're looking for an agent, go Jill Petersen ALL. THE. WAY. There isn't anyone better.

She was thorough, thoughtful and her memory is top-notch!
