I worked with Russell for several months while I was looking for an apartment for myself and my two daughters. It was a stressful time for me, and he had to put up with lots of telephone calls, emails, text messages and he did so without complaint and always responded in a timely way. He never made me feel like a burden.

One of the reasons Russell is really good at what he does is that he has strong intuition about people and where they will be happy. He steered me away from problem properties and towards the right apartment. He was like a cheerleader when I got discouraged.

Some realtors just want to close the deal and move on, but Russell made me feel that he was really invested in our being happy in our new home. And in fact he found us our dream apartment.

In short, he went above and beyond the usual level of personal attention and caring. It’s not very often that you end up feeling like your realtor is also your friend.

Russell was recommended to us by a colleague and he turned out to be the best real estate agent I've ever worked with. My wife and I were very nervous about finding a home in such a fast, competitive market and we didn't want to risk wasting time on an agent who wasn't up to speed with technology. Without Russell's help and expert guidance, I don't know where we'd be today.

From the beginning, he was a great listener who understood the difference between what we wanted and what we needed. I know Russell really had to hold our hands through some parts of the process and he never made us feel like we were a burden.

All the way through, it was clear he knew what he was doing, and his confidence did so much to help us relax. When we had questions, he was responsive. When we needed a good attorney or inspector, he had connections. Above all,  I could tell he truly cared personally about us and our best interests. In the end, he got us our amazing home and I couldn't be more thankful for the great experience! I strongly recommend working with Russell
