Re: Letter of thanks and recommendation
Dear Rita:
I wanted to thank you for the excellent service you provided concerning the sale of my client's home on Finley Road. As you know well, that could have been a lengthy marketing effort because of the age, drainage problems, and deferred maintenance on the residence. We really appreciate all your help: suggestions on fix-up and cleanup; suggesting we list it as-is; initial pricing analyses and updates on the market conditions; skillful marketing including advertising, open houses, and followup with touring brokers; keeping an eye on the vacant property; negotiating the price and terms; dealing with the Buyer; and getting information from the Village. You really went above and beyond the call of duty, and we appreciate it. The know-how, effort, and reliability you provided were crucial to a quick and successful sale. We would gladly recommend you to any potential clients -- buyers or sellers. Warmest regards for your continued success,
Howard H. Greengard |
