Rich is an excellent, experienced, hard work and compassionate realtor. He worked very hard getting me the home I wanted and ensured that my interests were addressed. Rich went above and beyond for me (especially since I’ve never purchased a home before) and was patient and kind with my rudimentary knowledge of the process. He gave honest and trustworthy advice and steered me in the right direction with regard to legal representation and ensuring I had inspections needed to comfortably move forward. With some many options to choose from when choosing a representative to represent you in your home buying process – I strongly suggest using Rich (and believe me – I did go through a few before meeting him!). I was lucky to have had him on my side and so will you. Thanks Rich!!
Richard is the ultimate Real Estate Agent. Richard is very professional and very knowledgeable of the business and the area. I am moving from New York City and I needed to take care of somethings in the house before I move in. Since I could not be there when needed, Richard was kind enough to allow contractors into my house when I needed him to. Obviously, this was beyond the call of duty, for which I will be eternally grateful to Richard. As I told Richard, if any of my friends decide to move to Connecticut, I will highly recommend him.
Rich was really great to work with. We found him through a zillow recommendation and couldn’t be happier. Rich listened to what our goals were, helped us prioritize and kept things lite and fun. Rich went above and beyond by coming to the house the day of the closing to do the walk through for us since the closing happened so quickly. We trust him and are looking forward to working with him again the next time we buy!
The home buying process can be rife with uncertainty and stress, especially during a global pandemic. It is important to have someone on your team who is first knowledgeable of the process and second affable and attentive. We were put in contact with Rich through the process of inquiring about buying land to build on as we were having trouble finding a house that met our criteria. Thankfully, our luck soon changed and it was Rich who got us a late viewing the same day and it was his knowledge and confidence with the process that assured our offer being accepted as there were two other offers the same day. Rich made sure to check in, offering suggestions and answering questions. He was effectively aggressive in the negotiation process and was a calming presence when we were presented with hurdles. We are absolutely in love with our new house and Rich deserves a lot of the credit for making it possible. Don’t be afraid to switch realtors if you have to as we did, because I don’t believe we get this house if not for doing so. Thank you Rich Johnson!
