Letters of Reference

Dear Jeff,

On behalf of Dr. Lo and myself, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all your help while we were bulding the new Quick Care Clinic in Boyne City.   Your council and advice were extremely helpful in getting our project completed.  As I’m sure you know the Grand Opening was May 7th.   Please stop in and check it out or get a check up!

Thanks so much again.

Buck Scott

Jeff & Gary,

Thank you so much for your time this morning. I really appreciate the opportunity to discuss our team and the services we can offer your clients. Your team has a great upbeat attitude. That is refreshing to see.
I went to your website and it is terrific. It is very personable and displays a very laid back approach to selling the community instead of a piece of property or home. Well done. By far the best site I have seen and I have been looking at several. :)
I look forward to working with you both and your team.
Take care,
Stephanie Baldwin
President

We’re doing Really, Really GREAT, Gary.  Thanks for asking!  We are LOVING the house, the boys are LOVING the school, and I am CRAZY about my 5 minute commute to work!  It sure beats the 40 minute commute from Wolverine!  You have my eternal gratitude for helping us find the PERFECT house, and community, to raise our family in.  Words truly cannot express how much this house means to us!  You were such a pleasure to work with as well!   I look forward to seing you when we’re wandering through town, when the weather is more agreeable that is!

I hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving as well.   And be sure you will be HIGHLY recommended to anyone I know looking for a Realtor!

Much thanks for all you’ve done.

Melissa and family

In looking for a new home in Boyne City Jayne Howard was a tireless and patient guide.  We both appreciated Jayne’s knowledge of the area, her thoroughness in keeping us informed of new properties to the market, and her patience as we looked for just the right place for us.  We highly recommend her services.

Gary,
We had conversations about “workaholics”.  We experienced the awesome power of riding in a Cadillac and those who drive them.   We laughed.  We analyzed.  We offered.  We inspected.  We looked and looked and looked!
You worked hard.  You were sensitive, helpful, open.  You were professional.  You cared.  And we appreciate it!  Thank you.

Dear Gary,
Thank you for  your info.  I passed the packet to a friend who is seriously looking at investment/retirement property.  He should be contacting you.

Thanks and good luck.
Fondly,

Dear Jeff,
We are speechless over your “perfect” housewarming gift.  (That explains why this “thank you” is so late.)
We are delightfully surprised and touched by the warmth and thoughtfulness you conveyed.
The house on Pearl Street awakens nearly every weekend when we arrive with our kids and their friends.   Thank you for helping us acquire it.  And, “Thank You” again for the very treasured sketch of our home.
Sincerely,
Tom and Jodie Bowman

Gary,
Doesn’t seem possible but it’s been six weeks since closing.  I just wanted to “Thank You” for your excellent handling of the whole process from listing to “Sold” and for indulging my idiosyncrasies and rants.  Hopefully one of thsee years – a farm or house with trout stream or something combining both!!  If you need a recommendation ever, count me in!
Thanks again!

Until I can find a better word, “thanks” will have to do.   We really appreciate all of the help you gave us.  You will be top on our list when it is time to sell.   A little gift from us to say “Thank You”.

Dear Gary,
A new pair of shoes to walk in… with a lighter and brighter spirit.
The burden of finding a buyer for Bob’s property was placed in your hands.  It was a real challenge.  I dont know how you were able to do it, but you helped Bob so much by finding that “saving grace” dentist.  I was able to get up that one weekend to help and a lot was accomplished.  I sincerely hope the buyer will be happy.
I’ve talked to Bob several times but the comment that most stands out in my mind just after the closing was when he said, “I feel an elephant has been lifted off my back.”
He now has a chance for new beginnings.   You were probably the most instrumental force in that coming about.
Thanks so much for helping my brother.  I sincerely, hope that if you ever face overwhelming and difficult times there will be an individual LIKE YOU for you.
Sincerely,
Jacqueline A Morrow

Dear Gary,
Rick and I just want to thank you once again for all the effort you put in to making our dream come true.  (Not to mention the beautiful house warming gift.)
Once we met the gentleman selling the property, we realized you had no easy task making this sale work.   We so much appreciate everything!   We could not be happier!    We will pass out your cards to any prospective buyers or sellers.
Most sincerely,
Rick and Jenn Lent
