To say we were nervous about the process of buying our first house is an understatement. We had no idea what would be involved, what to look for, what to avoid, nothing. Sean was amazingly helpful in walking us through every step and making the whole experience as painless as possible. Seeing endless homes with us, explaining what we were seeing, what was good or bad about each place, and what we could expect if we thought that might be the one. He never pushed us into any decisions but provided extremely helpful guidance so we could make informed decisions at every turn. He kept us constantly informed on any developments in our search -- new properties we might like, the status of the various offers we made, or market changes that would affect our options. His patience, knowledge, and even his friendly personality turned what could have been an enormously stressful experience into a pleasant adventure, at the end of which we found and bought a home we love.
