Testimonials

Bruce, …On behalf of myself, my siblings and my parents, thanks so much to you and Kim for your hard work and wise counsel as we sold the old family home. You made the process so easy for us, and we could not be happier with the outcome. The combination of timely and important improvements to the house and getting it on the market at the right time really paid off. If there is ever a time when I can provide a recommendation for you to another client, please don't hesitate to ask. I wish you all the best. Take care, Bruce April 26, 2005 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, Charlie and I just want to thank you for all your help in selling our house. The entire process was handled very professionally, as well as, personally; and we very much appreciate the ease and speed it took to complete the sale. Much thanks to you and Kim for your time and effort. Fondly, Bonnie & Charlie Stevenson April 15, 2004 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi Bruce, I hope all is going well for you. Lisa and I do receive your newsletter and think it is great! It's a nice way to keep in touch with your clients and keep your name fresh on their minds … Just looking back with the multiple realtors that we have encountered and utilized, you have been the best by far! It seems that you have better leveraged technology and marketing than most out there … Thanks! -Carlos October 1, 2003 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, Lisa and I wanted to write a quick note to say ‘Thank You’ for representing us during the sale of our condo in California. We appreciated the extra efforts you and your assistant Kim took, especially since we were living in Arizona. We know you went the extra mile to coordinate with the buyer’s agent, escrow officer, and others to ensure our property closed. Thank you. Sincerely, Carlos & Lisa Roman October 15, 2002 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To whom it may concern, I am writing to recount my recent positive experience as a buyer having worked with Bruce Scheer as the selling agent. My wife and I were purchasing a property in which a large number of time-critical issues required resolution. Unfortunately, our “buyer’s” agent was not available during this time nor did he provide the representation we required. Bruce was instrumental in successfully concluding the transaction despite the many impediments and poor representation from our agent. Bruce made us aware of issues that were not being handled, he represented the concerns and needs of his client, and made extra efforts to resolve issues. This resulted in a successful outcome for all. All the wile he was very professional, very effective in his communication, very knowledgeable, and demonstrated attention to detail. From this experience I highly recommend Bruce and look forward to the future possibility of doing business with him. We offer our thanks to him for helping us purchase a house, the transaction for which would not have been successful without his efforts. Sincerely, Seth Hawthorne October 4, 2002 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bruce, Rekha and I would like to thank you and Kim for closing the escrow on time. We enjoyed very much working with both of you. We appreciate your professionalism, understanding and cooperation all these weeks. This is the first time we sold a house. It has been a learning experience for us. I learned a lot in the process of preparing this house for sale. The knowledge I acquired in the last few months, I hope, will become very useful in maintaining and upgrading my current home. Bruce, we want you to know you have exceeded our expectations. Let us stay in touch. Ashok Bansal February 28, 2002 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping us sell our home, for holding our hands through the process, for helping us stage the place to show, for making the negotiations so easy and for the escrow summary. When your were the listing agent on the home we bought – we were pleased with your professionalism and helpfulness. When we turned around and sold the house six years later - you were our first choice to list the home again. Bruce, you truly are easy to work with and so professional and helpful. What could have turned out to be a disaster - getting the home ready to show - cleaning up my home office - getting our junk out of the house - etc, etc, etc. - instead turned it into a model home. Your advice could be measured by the great price you negotiated for the house. Please don't show anyone our "before" pictures, but you can brag about the "after" results. Then, just the other night, as we were pulling our hair out doing taxes, what do we find...a note from you summing up all the boring escrow information that I never paid any attention to...our tax man is so happy...so are we! We can't refer you to enough friends and family, you're the best! Thank you again, Jeff and Dawn Danaher Formerly of Santa Clara March 2001 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, Both Jim and I would like to extend our sincere thanks to you for all your efforts in selling our Santa Clara home. As you are no doubt aware, it’s a very stressful period and we do appreciate all you did for us. Please extend out thanks to your assistant, Kim, also for her helpful support when I was feeling the pressure. I am sure that you will assist many families through this process in the future and I know that they are in good hands. Thanks again, James & Heather Ellis August 2000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, I would like to thank you very much for your aid in the sale of my town home – especially since there was so much that had to be performed by you and your staff. The beauty was in the professional execution of virtually everything. Your ability to size up how the house had to look for a successful sale was invaluable. Invaluable too, was the ability of you and your staff to act as the intermediary with the contractors to handle the linoleum, carpet, painting and sink replacement along with tiling the kitchen countertops. I truly felt as though all was being taken care of – from getting quotes to final execution and inspection. The payoff came at the end – with your home sale price recommendation. Your recommended listing price was over what I had ever expected to get – and then to find 16 offers – most of which were even substantially over asking – what a thrill! Your aid in selection of the offer and the effortless close exceeded my expectations. Thanks again for all the hard work. Working with you was truly my pleasure. Sincerely, Stuart Lefort January 30, 2000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bruce, Again, you continue to pave the way as a most excellent real estate agent. I only wish my agent here in Michigan had been as on the ball. Thanks so much or sending the copy, it's going to come in handy. If you ever need to use us for a reference, we're there for you. Again, thanks so very much for an excellent job. Jim & Mary Zandee January 11, 2000 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, It's been a while but I haven't forgottenwhat a splendid job you did handling my buy-sell. I must say that I couldn't be happier. This place looks like a palace. I am totally in love with it. Four or five years down the road when I'm ready to relocate, you can count on me to call you. Good luck to you always, Jacqueline DeMong September 1999 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, I was supposed to have this ready for you at Thanksgiving, but, well… We love our house and are constantly grateful that we have it. Thank you so much for all you gave, the effort and for making the process so accessible for us. With your help, the impossible became our reality. I know of no one else who has had such a positive “realtor experience” as we have. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. Rosemary, Phil & Sereana December 10, 1998 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Bruce, As you know, we recently returned from our vacation cruise. Randy, Rita and I want to thank you for your fine work and cooperation in selling our condo so quickly. We feel your excellent advice, help and professionalism aided the speedy sale and closure. Also we appreciated your suggestions regarding the cleanup and were pleased with the painter, handyman and cleaning person. They all came through promptly and their fine work made the condo so appealing. Certainly we will be very happy to recommend you to any of our friends who may need an outstanding sales agent. Thank you again for your proficiency and your helpfulness. We enjoyed working with you. Sincerely, Rita, Warren and Randy Vogel August 11, 1998 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ references available upon request
