Our family had just moved to the area in July. The rental home we had secured, through another realtor, became a nightmare. We were unable to reside there for even one night. Unfortunately, my wife, son, two animals and I found ourselves living in a hotel room. We had a matter of weeks to find a residence within our son's school district. With our mortgage up north and just starting news jobs, the thought never crossed our minds that we could purchase another home. We were in one of the most stressful times of our lives but along came Chris. I reached out to Chris not knowing what to expect. Chris knew the stressful situation we were in. We placed our absolute trust in him. He immediately made himself available to me and my family. He promptly provided us with listings in our desired area. Chris was quick to set up showing times for our homes of interest. We found a house we wanted to call home. He was able to "thread the needle" and provide us with referrals for financing, insurance and the like to make everything come together. Chris expeditiously walked us through the entire purchasing process to the house we now call home. He went above and beyond what any other realtor we have ever met would do. He is extremely knowledgeable with every aspect of the real estate transaction. We were looking for a realtor and we found both a realtor and a friend. Looking for a realtor? You found him!

I have worked with Chris Forrey on the purchase and the sale side of my homes. Chris knows how to price a home correctly and get the most dollars out of every sale. The first time both my wife and I sat down with Chris, to discuss the current sales and competing properties that we were selling our home against. He knew based on our waterfront location and upgrades we had made to our home; we could sell at the top end of the market. Chris shared his knowledge of how an appraiser would view our home when it came time for the buyer’s appraisal to be completed for the bank. This maxed out what we could net for our sale. There have been many occasions where his appraisal background put us in a position to maximize our sell price without risking the deal falling apart. He’s really able to bring all parties to closure with his skill set and maneuver the many pitfalls I have seen less experienced realtors fail at and consequently have deals fall out of contract. You really want a pro like Chris when you are selling or buying real estate. I give Chris my highest recommendation and I am looking forward to our next deal he and I do together.

I have worked with Chris twice, on both selling and purchasing homes. He was quick to respond and made sure everything ran smoothly and painlessly both times. Chris has a great sense of humor and we had the best time home shopping! If you need a person, you can really rely on, work with Chris and you won’t be sorry!

Thanks to Chris, we found our Florida dream home. Finding the right home can be a stressful time but Chris guided us every step of the way, making this process much easier for our family. We have been looking forward to relocating to Florida for a while, and making this big decision to buy our first home here was a no-brainer with Chris as our realtor. We are grateful for his honesty, professionalism and compassion during this home buying process!
