We don't guess at real estate values... As the former owner of an appraisal company, Dick has in depth knowledge on how to accurately value a property using a variety of sophisticated appraisal methods not used by most real estate agents. His research and summary usually takes 2 to 2 1/2 hours vs the 25 to 40 minutes required to do the typical real estate agents CMA study...but it results in a very accurate estimate of the selling price.   

Don't employ a Realtor who is not a proven expert negotiator. Very few folks ever investigate the negotiating skills of a real estate agent yet more money is lost due to poor negotiating skills than for any other reason... Dick is an expert negotiator who has negotiated multi millions of dollars in real estate tax refunds for over 260 client properties.
