Ray,
Susie and I would like to thank you for your help in purchasing the unit
at Vasari. We were both impressed with your knowledge of the situation and
your professionalism. You're the greatest. Without you this would not of
worked. Thanks again for your patience and time.
I
found Ray on the internet along with 3 other realtors who I asked to send
me property listings as they became available. He was the only realtor
that was consistent and reliable in his responses each week. When it came
time to visit, Ray had all the information on each property that we were
to view. He walked through each property with us and the other agents. His
observations about the properties and his attention to detail were
extremely helpful. When it came time for an offer, we were able to save
additional money due to Ray's expertise. I have recommended 2 other people
to Ray from Rhode Island and both have bought property in Naples. There
are many realtors in Naples but I find it hard to believe that there are
any more thorough than Ray.
Ray, Just want to thank you for all your help. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with you. I now consider you one of my friends. We want to wish you all the best over the holidays. Again, thanks for everything.
Joseph Crawford, Verona, NJ Jorge Toledo, Delray Beach, FL
Hi Amy, Kathy and I want to thank you again for your time, knowledge, and professionalism introducing us to the Naples market. You did a fabulous job getting us up to date with each very different locales. We plan to do our homework with the info from you on Naples. We hope to narrow down our wish list after that. Keep in touch and thanks again for everything. Fondest regards, Jamie Pyper, Toronto, Ontario
I can see why you are successful it's a pleasure to have you on my side. Thanks for all your help. Tom Orr, Hicksville, NY
MaryAnn Timmons, Rochester, N.Y.
Ray, It is with great
pleasure that I write this testimonial to your wonderful service, I too
have been in the customer service business in another field all my life
and I must say that you are a true professional. From the moment I first
contacted you regarding buying a home in Naples you advised my wife and
I thru every step. You helped us find our new home in Madison Park and
you did everything from picking out the best lot with the longest water
view, to the final walk-thru with the Centex Contractor providing them
with a punch list of things that needed to be fixed. All this was done
while I was in our Cedar Grove, New Jersey home, truly amazing! Maria
and I have and will always recommend you to all of our family and
friends because you made our dream a reality. With our sincere thanks,
I
will certainly recommend you to anyone that will be looking for a home in
the Naples area because you were quite helpful. I did not realize that
when you give your name to these new communities that you become
registered and unable to use the assistance of a realtor. I will warn
others as needed. Thanks again for your time and effort.
Dear
Ray, Thank you so much for helping us find our Florida dream home. We were
very fortunate to be associated with such a well-educated and
knowledgeable agent in the southwest Florida real estate market. Your
strategic approach to educating us on what was available in the market and
matching it to our goals was extremely effective. Having limited time to
explore the market as out-of-state buyers, we were fortunate to have an
agent with such extensive knowledge of the product. Your business-like
approach to the process was refreshing as most real estate agents spend
much time on unsuitable properties. Reviewing the type of product and the
wide variety available permitted us to select the property most suitable
to our needs and desires. Your input on expected costs on upgrades, real
estate taxes, and monthly association fees let us set a realistic and
affordable budget while getting the “best bang for the buck”. This
week we break ground and look forward to the development and completion of
our new dream vacation home. We will keep you posted on the progress and
thank you again for all your time, help, and guidance. We will definitely
share your talent with our friends.
Hi Ray, I want to thank you for having Jan show
us around the Naples area during my short visit in August. My goal was to see as many properties as possible during my 3 day stay. Jan knew what I was interested in and we spent 2 full days looking at everything on the market. It saved me a lot of time having someone as knowledgeable as Jan on your team. I very pleased with my purchase and look forward to
the next phase........construction. Thanks again.
Hi Ray, Well, we did it, we managed to see a bunch of properties and make 2 offers within 1 marathon weekend thanks to Teddianne! Words can't even express exactly how fantastic she was for us! Had it not been for her efficiency, incredible patience, and knack for knowing exactly what we were looking for we would have never been able to accomplish what we did in a day and a half in Naples. She was determined to find the exact property and community for us and she did it in leading us to Lely. We consider ourselves so fortunate to have been teamed up with her so thank you and a world of thanks to Teddianne for her high level of professionalism, she is top notch! Bambi and Fran Short, Somers Point, NJ
Ray, Jan was great! Professional and friendly, she insisted we continue to view property until we were sure we had exactly what we required at Marbella at Spanish Wells. Thank you!.
We want to thank you for all the time spent with us in our house search during our recent visit to Naples. As you know, I have worked in the real estate industry for many years and know that not all agents go the distance that you do. It was a great pleasure working with you, as we were both very comfortable and appreciated your honesty and integrity. Your Real Estate knowledge is boundless and your professionalism and all the personal attention you gave us was wonderful. Your tireless devotion to helping us find just the right home, along with the fact that you returned all our calls so promptly, puts you high on our list. You're the best and we have passed the word to our friends. Thanks for everything. John and Debra Credendino, Tuxedo Park, NY
Ray! As we are coming closer to the closing on our property in Florida we would like to say "BIG THANKS" to you, to the person who was so honest, so truthful and so helpful to us. For us, being so far away (we live upstate New York), you were exactly the person that we needed. Talking to us on the phone the first time, spending so much time with us, you made us so comfortable that we bought our townhouse over the phone, without even looking at it. Then, when we visited Florida and saw the model of the townhouse we purchased, everything you told us came alive. Ray! We always wanted to retire in Florida and you helped our dream to come true for us. Thank you so very much! Oskar and Raisa Pruss, Poughkeepsie, NY
Teddianne, we really thought highly of you. You are bright, organized and were right on target
with the types of homes in which we would be interested. We trust your judgement and know
you will take good care of us.
Thank
you so much for your assistance. The list you sent me has really helped.
As
they say: "things happen for a reason", and I was lucky enough
to stumble across Ray's website before a two-day trip to Naples for a job
interview. His extremely fast responses to my e-mails and phone calls
prompted me to cancel appointments with other realtors who paled with
their professionalism compared to Ray's. Once in Naples, his extensive
knowledge of the area and the real estate market, as well as him having
prepared for properties that fit our criteria made it easy to decide on
one. Back in New York, Ray was the greatest assistance between the bank,
seller, title company, and the reason for making this home-buying
experience a very smooth one. He certainly went above and beyond to ensure
everything was all right, and even assisted me in finding a rental until
the closing. We can only but recommend Ray to anyone looking to buy a
property. His passion and commitment will undoubtedly make it much easier
to find the home of your dreams. Thanks again, Ray.
Hi Ray, Thank you for all the help while we were condo hunting. We will be sure to refer you to any of our friends that might be looking to buy in the area. Dean and Shirley Patras, Park Ridge, IL
Amy and myself, along with Bruce and Louise, would like to thank you for all the time, energy and effort you put in assisting us with our purchases. It was clear to me from the start that you had done a lot of homework and we truly appreciate it. You always pointed out the good things as well as the not so good things for each community. Believe me, if I know of anyone who is looking in the Naples area you will hear from them. Tim and Amy Sbordone, West Newton, MA Bruce and Louise Greene, Lexington, MA
Dear Ray, We wish to express our thanks to you for the excellent performance by you and your team
to help us with the purchase of our new condo at Hammock Bay. With your help and guidance we
feel we made a great investment at a good price compared to the market of other condos as
priced for comparable units at Hammock Bay and others in the Naples area. The entire process was
handled over the phone and by emails with neither myself nor my wife ever seeing the condo.
This shows the confidence we grew to have in our dealings with you. We paid $715,000
and have seen condos such as ours going for over a million. In fact the same unit in the next
building going up is currently priced at $980,000. We certainly feel we got a
bargain. I'm sure we will enjoy the ownership and live in it part of the time as we also purchased it as an investment.
We are recommending your services to all of our friends, some of which are also looking to
buy in the Naples area. We also look forward to meeting you in person when we visit or to stay
for the winter.
Dear
Mr. Snow, You put us in contact with Johanne for our visit in April to look into the possibility of buying a holiday property in the Naples area.
She contacted us exactly as promised and on meeting quickly assessed what our requirements might be. She showed us one or two options in the resale market to give us an idea of what might be available and which focused our thoughts on new build.
She had already identified the development on which we finally decided. We had also found some others which she visited with us and followed up with questions to the developers.
After a long day we arranged to return with her to look at the construction site at Heatherstone - again she was very useful making a number of helpful comments. The following day she returned with us to sign the Purchase Agreement.
On the Saturday morning, as we were leaving, she was able to sort out a problem with the developer in respect of our preliminary deposit.
All week she was punctual, efficient and very friendly - giving the impression that we were her sole concern during the period of our visit. She also put us in touch with a very helpful Mortgage Broker.
Since returning home we have been in regular contact by e-mail with a series of questions and have always received a prompt reply. Buying at a distance would have been much more stressful without a good contact who we feel is "on our side" and who we can rely on.
We look forward to moving towards closing with Johanne's continuing help. In summary we could not have found a better Realtor and would have no hesitation in recommending her services to other purchases.
Making the decision to purchase a home in Naples was made so much easier by working with Ray Snow. His intimate knowledge of the area and recommendations helped us to feel more comfortable selecting our new home from a distance. Ray was patient with our many questions and requests for his opinion on a large number of listings and spent several hour-long calls talking through the pros and cons of each. Ultimately we decided to build in Carlton Lakes and are eagerly awaiting the construction of our beautiful new home! Allan and Patti, Cincinnati, OH
Ray, Thank you very much in helping Tricia and I find a home in Naples, Florida. I was a bit scared that she would not like the house at first, but as soon as Tricia saw it she loved it. You did a great job and found exactly the house that we were looking for at the best price. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone. Tim and Tricia Marshel, Akron, OH
Ray
Snow worked diligently to find me the exact home I was looking for. I gave
him an almost impossible task but he wouldn't give up, even when I was
doubtful that it could be found. In the end, I not only got the home but
made a new friend. Ray really puts his heart and soul into his business.
He will find you the home of your dreams!
Hi Ray! Jan was a delight to work with during our search for a primary residence as well as investment property. She continues to be helpful halfway across the country, and we look forward to seeing her again when we come down to close!
Dear
Ray, Ellie and I want to thank you for the wonderful job you did for us as
our buyer’s agent in Naples. Your attention to detail in finding us the
right place, and your untiring efforts until we did, made our buying trip
a great success, which resulted in a purchase with which we are delighted.
We certainly couldn’t have done it without you. Please feel free to post
this note as evidence of our great pleasure in dealing with you. If you
want to use us as a reference we would be happy to talk by telephone with
any other clients you may have. Thanks again for a great job. Best
regards,
Hi Ray,
Thanks for your email and comments. We too feel we have made an excellent choice and can't wait for our home to be completed.
May we say that the personal service we received from Jan during our stay in Naples was superb. She was professional, knowledgeable and extremely helpful and made our search so much easier. For us it was very useful to have an English lady looking after our interests as she understood our terminology and the way we thought. We certainly now think of Jan as a friend and look forward to meeting up with her again during our forthcoming
visits. If you can make use of anything we say, please don't hesitate to do so.
Kind regards,
Ray,
You were kind enough to spend all that time speaking to us and the fact
that you were the only similar broker who gave us such a selection to
choose from, I was quite impressed. We like the way you work. Very
thorough! I will most definitely recommend you to a lot of people.
It
was a pleasure working with you on the purchase of our new condominium in
Naples, Florida. We are thrilled with the property, spent one great night
in it, and can't wait to get back. We sincerely appreciate your patience
in showing us the Naples area. We always felt that you had our interests
in mind in the search for our property. Best of luck.
Ray, again, I am so happy with the unit you helped me acquire. Also, I am extremely happy with the service you've provided. Your responsiveness is absolutely incredible. Your enthusiasm for your work, professionalism, and knowledge shows through in every one of our conversations. Joel Lefkovitz, Columbus, OH
Hello Ray, Hope all is well. Wanted to let you know we have walk-thru and closing dates for our carriage house at Stratford Place. Looking forward to seeing you again. We are so very happy with decision to purchase in Naples and truly appreciate all the help you provided. We could never have done it without you! Betty and John Pizzi, Clifton, NJ
Ray's
efforts culminated in a money saving purchase of a new villa in Estero.
This successful transaction wouldn't have been possible if it were not for
all the professional qualities that Ray exhibited, i.e., follow-up, market
knowledge, contacts, preparation, punctuality, professional demeanor, and
most importantly, honest and integrity. The actual purchase of our
property was conducted, without incident, through the mail with Ray's
supervision. We wholeheartedly recommend Ray for any real estate needs you
may have, particularly if you are an out of state purchaser. Ray is fully
committed, determined and focused on fulfilling his clients' needs. As a
New Jersey licensed realtor, I have had hundreds of dealings with real
estate agents; all pale in comparison to our experiences with Ray Snow. (view
entire testimonial)
On my visit to Naples, Ray showed me over 50 properties in 3 days. By the time we were done, I felt like an expert on Naples golf condos. I was very confident with my buying decision. I highly recommend! Thanks Ray, fantastic job! Nathan Thompson, Plymouth, MA
Thank
you so much for your help. I should have visited you.....
My
wife and I had the opportunity to work with Ray during a recent home
buying visit to Naples. Ray knew all the properties in Naples, Bonita
Springs and Estero (more then these I'm sure if I had asked) and provided
an excellent commentary about these communities while we drove to various
properties. We finally found the perfect home in Naples and with Ray's
help and guidance we know we made the right choice.
We really like the way you work, very honest and direct. Bert and Lydia Vandenberg, Wilnis, Netherlands
Tammy
and I want to thank you very much for helping us find our dream home in
Southwest Florida! Is there anyone else who would have worked as hard as
you did for us? I don't think so. You demonstrated tremendous patience and
perseverance while driving me around Naples for 3 full days looking at
properties. I don't think that I could have narrowed down my search and
ultimately selected a property without relying upon your expertise of the
area. You also simplified the negotiations and contract processes for us.
Moreover, when we experienced administrative difficulties with our lender,
you stepped in to save the day! Now, we not only consider you as a great
business contact in Florida, but also as our new friend. Thank you very
much for all your help.
You have the only website in Florida that makes any sense. Richard Mazur, Chicago, IL Hi Ray, We returned back to snow and ice and are ready to run back to Naples! I wanted to thank you again for all your hard work in helping us select the right property for our needs. There was so much to see but we were lucky to size up what we wanted rather quickly. It was helpful to compare the various developments and units. In the end, we feel very satisfied with our choice. Alan and Kathy Michaels, Fort Lee, NJ
We will certainly recommend you to anyone we know in England that is interested in Naples. Dave Jacobs, Thornford, Dorset, UK
Hi
Ray, I just wanted to say thanks for your advice you gave me after I
contacted you in June. At that time I told you I was looking on the West
Coast and would be in Naples at the end of my trip. You told me to make
sure I visited Naples and that many don't make it that far down. My wife
and I changed our schedule and we arrived in Naples first. It was love at
first sight. You had connected us with Jaime Berguido and he spent several
days with us showing us properties in our price range. We have developed a
friendship with Jaime that we believe will last for many years. We love
our new condo and its location right on Kings Lake. Again, thanks for your
advice and professionalism. You surely changed the direction of our
purchase and we love our new vacation home.
Ray
Snow is a true professional in all aspects of the real estate market. His
expertise and never-say-die work ethic found the perfect tenant for our
villa. This will allow us to cover our expenses until we are able to enjoy
Naples ourselves. Thanks Ray!
Dear Ray,
I just wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was working with Jan
Herrington. We visited Naples with just the idea to look around to see what was available. We let Jan know our price range and intentions and she understood completely. She showed us the area, what was for sale in and around our price range, and gave us a good feel for what was out there. We felt extremely comfortable working with Jan. There was no high pressure sales pitch to make an offer on any property. Jan was a true professional and understood we were there to look around and get a feel for the area.
After we returned home, Jan kept us informed of what was available in the area. After a few weeks, Jan found what we were looking for and as they say the rest is history.
As we go through the building phase and the ultimate closing on our condo I look forward to working with Jan and yourself.
Best regards,
Just
have to tell you how very impressed I am by your newsletters--the format
is outstanding. Please keep me on the email list.
Ray, We want to thank you for all the information you sent us on on the various new communities in southwest Florida. Your weekly newsletter was very informative which helped us in making our decision to purchase a townhouse at Reflection Lakes in Naples. When we met with you, the information you provided on closing fees and costs was very helpful. We have recommended to a friend of ours that he call you to inquire about properties in the Naples area. We look forward to talking with you again as the building of our home progresses. Charlie and Marie Realmonte, Clifton, NJ
Finding a realtor that is willing to spend time helping and educating you from 1100 miles was not an easy task. Most that we made contact with would e-mail us homes each week and if you didn't show a strong interest in a few weeks they would loose interest in you as a customer. All the realtors that we dealt with really didn't want to spend the time to assist us in our potential buy until you came to Florida with your checkbook. I am still not sure how I came across Ray Snow it must have been my lucky day. Ray spent months educating me about the pros and cons of different areas; golf verses non-golf and bundled golf verses private golf membership. We fell in love with the first two homes we looked at one was new and not built yet and the other was a turnkey just what we wanted. Ray could of made the sale and went home after the first two hours but insisted that we take the next two days and look at what he had scheduled to see at the end of the second day we bought the second home that we saw. From our very first contact, through the search, the purchase, and finally the settlement, Ray was very much the professional and made what could have been a trying experiencing a very pleasurable one. We love our home and have no have no plans on moving but if we did Ray would get the call to handle all of our realtor needs. John and Carol Hahn, Hockessin, DE
