I cannot say enough good things about Chris. He helped me navigate the real estate market at an extremely difficult time to buy. He was with me every step of the way. He helped me understand the trends of the market and gave me valuable input on the areas in my price range. He also helped me understand the long term value trends and financial benefits of homeownership.Whenever I wanted to view a property Chris made it happen. When actually viewing properties Chris would give me his genuine opinion on things. His background in property management and maintenance/construction knowledge really put me at ease because he knew what to look for in terms of possible issues problems and repairs.On top of that Chris was very helpful in understanding how big of a decision buying a home is. Not only was his knowledge reassuring but his genuine interest in helping me make a smart investment and overall outlook was amazing. I was in contact with him almost daily throughout the process and his consistency understanding knowledge experience and his genuine personality to help make a smart decision for my future made the entire process easy.His ability to connect with others in the industry is an added benefit. We works closely with a mortgage lender which made getting a mortgage super convenient. Also Chris worked very well with the seller's realtor in terms of representing me. Because of this I was able to close on my home without being the highest or most competitive offer and immediately gain equity as the purchase price was below market value.All because of Chris Roche. I could not be happier with how things worked out!
