To Whom It May Concern:
Our son, who lives in Colorado and has rented there for many years decided it was time to buy his own condo. As his parents, he asked for our help and advice. We live in New Jersey and had no knowledge of the real estate market in Colorado. Our son contacted Thomas R. Swanwick (TR) and started the process. Once our son chose TR, we contacted him to advise him that we would like to be kept informed and TR couldn't have been nicer. We were very comfortable with him even without meeting him face to face. The first thing TR did was to get to know our son and his interests, which helped out in showing him potential properties. TR worked diligently to find him something in his price range in the area of Lafayette, Colorado, which he had chosen. When a property hit the market, TR not only emailed our son, but he sent us the email too so that we could see the properties available that he was considering.
TR is very professional and it showed in the way he kept both my son and ourselves up to date on every detail that was going on after a decision was finally made on a property. This, indeed, was not an easy task, since the sale was a short sale. Now, TR not only had to deal with the agent who listed this home, but with all the various players involved in a short sale process. He did this with ease and expertise. TR was so helpful in explaining everything throughout the process from when the bid was put in until closing. He was there every step of the way for our son, and he also kept his "anxious" parents informed.
Without a doubt, we would highly recommend TR to anyone for their real estate needs, whether buying or selling. He will work for you and with you with a great deal of experience and patience, and above all, he is someone you can trust. read more
