LONGER LETTERS:

Carl goes the extra mile for his clients!

We worked with him to sell one family residence and purchase another.  He gave us confidence in his ability to assess the value of the properties involved and suggested the appropriate starting price.  Our property sold in a very reasonable time frame given all the circumstances of the economy.  Carl was very helpful and patient finding just the right replacement home for our situation.

He communicated perfectly, always responding to our calls in a very timely manner and he kept us informed of any developments as they unfolded.  (Barbara and Bob)

We worked with Carl to buy a 12 acre parcel with a vinyard and a 5000+ sq. ft. house in the "Avenues".  The property was out of our price range initially but Carl notified us immediately when the price was dropped and then helped us negotiate a fair price that was even lower.  He showed us many properties for possible purchase and some that were just for comparison purposes.  He always had our interests first, something that I have found to be very rare in agents we have dealt with in the past.  He was always professional and was great at communicating to us immediately the status of our deal.  We were from out of town so prompt phone calls and emails were vital to completing a successful transaction.  He was able to provide reliable recommendations for inspectors, title companies, etc.  We have called him on occasion to let in a repairman while we were out of town and he has always been there for us.  This is years after the sale was complete.  We certainly appreciate it when he goes the extra mile to do things like this for us.

Carl also handles our rental property in Napa, a 2000 sq. ft. home on an acre.  He has advertised for and brought us long term tenants.  When any issues come up, we simply call Carl and he takes care of them.

We recommend Carl to anyone who needs a professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable Realtor.  He is always prompt and has a good grasp of fair market value.  We know we will always get good advice from Carl.  (Monica and Joe)

Carl knows the area, is competent, honest and not in a hurry to make a sale.  He was patient and careful in assisting us to make the best selection.  He always kept us up to date on the status of our purchase.  (William & Laura)

I worked with Carl to sell my sister-in-law's house in Napa after she passed away.  This was a property in basically good condition, needing a little cosmetic attention.  While other Realtors suggested I do major beautification and fix-ups, Carl wisely suggested that I sell "as is" leaving the changes to the discretion and choices of the buyer.  He priced it exactly right in a very difficult market and was both flexible and/or firm under the right circumstances.

Carl communicated at just the appropriate moments, before, during and after the sale of the house; understanding that I needed to be absent from the property while it was being sold.  The property was in a Trust and he personally talked with lawyers, appraisers and other professionals - making my life considerably easier.

I interviewed Realtors from larger firms and chose Carl for his fine personal attention.  Carl's considerate manner and thoughtful, business-like advice made the sale beautifully transparent and seamless during a difficult personal time for me.  I recommend him to anyone. (Marilyn)

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Carl and highly recommend him to all of our friends.  He found just the right house for us!  He was always right on top of it - called me or emailed me right away and always responded immediately.  We recommend him because of his level of professionalism, knowledge of the area, pricing, people, he knows his business and reads people well.  He never pushes, is patient, and has excellent follow-through ... (Kay & George)

I have worked with Carl to buy and sell single family residences as well as commercial property.  He is very skilled in finding the appropriate "comps" and informed us of other features that influence the value of the property, such as; parking, expansion possibilities, work/live options and neighborhood desireability.  He was very diligent to find what we were looking for without hurrying us to buy.  He helped us to understand that the highest offer is not always the cleanest (best) offer.

When we were selling, Carl effectively marketed a unique property and generated traffic to get a good offer in a challenging market.  He is very effective in his communications and kept us informed of activity on our property as well as "real time" information on other properties being bought and sold in the vicinity.

Carl is willing to go above and beyond for his clients.  His financial acumen coupled with his knowledge of the real estate market enables him to have a unique and accurate perspective on property values.  Additionally, he is actively involved in the community which affords him many professional resources to recommend to his clients for expertise or services, such as; lawyers, lenders, plumbers and contractors.
