To be honest I don't even know where to begin…read more We met Greg as a recommendation from a Coldwell agent that helped us sell our home in Ottawa. I was 7 months pregnant and we wanted to move to Bloomington, and we were naively hoping to do this before the delivery of the baby. We narrowed down to about a dozen houses online, my husband went to meet Greg who helped him further scratch a few off the top, and they spent the day going house to house. My husband narrowed it to three homes and the following day he brought me down to meet Greg and look at the three houses. Greg was flexible, reliable, and considerate of our circumstances. He didn't pressure anything onto us, he told us how it was, what kinds of choices we had, what was typically done and would give examples of unusual circumstances to give perspective. We picked the house we wanted, wrote an offer and set a closing date that day. Between calling Greg off the back of a business card and writing up a contract, I think it was only 3 or 4 days and that was exactly what we needed. We needed to find a house FAST. That was 3 1/2 years ago and we kept in touch with Greg throughout to get a feel for the market once in a while knowing we didn't want this house for a whole lot longer. However in April 2018 we came across what appeared to be our dream home on the ole interwebs. Of course knowing that listings can be deceiving, we called up Greg and asked him to take us out there. The baby we had had when purchasing the last house was born profoundly disabled and had recently been given a few years more to live. Had we known we'd need space for a wheelchair our buying priorities would have been much different. He came with us everywhere so Greg got to know "Mouse Man" well. He was in a wheelchair full time at this point, and the house we were looking at had a wheelchair ramp and 6500 sq ft of living space. The house we were in still was quickly getting cramped with all of our son's medical equipment and frequent therapy sessions. We wheeled Mouse Man around and thought how nice it would be for him and his siblings to have so much more space. His bedroom was quickly picked - an office with a glass door so we could easily check on him and even the paint job that most would consider unappealing was perfect because the colors were the two colors Mouse Man could see best when contrasted with each other. It really seemed like this was meant to be. We decided to think on it and I believe within a week or so we revisited and decided to write up an offer which was quickly negotiated out and agreed upon. Greg gave us great advice on selling the old house. He gave us one piece of advice about moving some furniture and we thought, "Well we disagree, it looks nice like that." Boy were we wrong. We had a showing and sure enough - the complaint from the agent's clients was related to the furniture. After that we decided to heed every single bit of advice - do this, do that, change this, clean that. It was a lot of work, a lot of frustrating showings, some unkind comments, multiple offers that fell through, and we were growing more aggravated by the day. Greg was always encouraging us. He promised he would get it sold, and that we'd get back what we put in. We actually refused a low ball offer three weeks after listing, which (literally) paid off in September when we were finally offered a fair price from a wonderful buyer. It was an odd 'contingent' offer; the buyer needed to sell her home first, but wanted to rent our home until she closed on hers, and then until we closed on this one she was renting from us. This worked out well for us and really is a dream situation for anyone with an offer contingent on closing on their current home first. But here's what makes Greg amazing. He knows his clients, he knows them well, and he knows their needs. He gets to know his clients, and he got to know our special little guy. We had a move-in date for our renter/buyer and we needed to have a lease signed, deposit and rent collected, the i's dotted and t's crossed on that date, a Saturday in mid September. But Mouse Man caught a cold, it developed into pneumonia, and I found him the Monday prior to the move-in date, having lost his battle with his rare disease. With all the chaos going on, Greg said not to worry about a thing. The funeral was set to take place on move-in day, and Greg made sure to take care of everything for us so that we could say goodbye to our son. We closed on our first home we bought while our son was in the NICU having a permanent feeding tube surgically placed, and Greg moved in our renter/buyer while we said goodbye to that same son. If you want a real estate agent who is investing themselves into you, your family, and your needs, call Greg. He takes a real interest in his clients. He doesn't pull any punches, he gives real advice, but you are more than a payday to him.
