What Others Are Saying About How We Do Business

Dear Van:

Thank You! I’m just writing to express my gratitude to you for the very excellent job you did of representing me as your client in both the sale of my old home and the purchase of my dream home. Each transaction went like clockwork because of your knowledge, experience and expertise. Neither was a long or drawn out process, except that I ended up with more house than I ever dreamed!

More than anything, I shall forever remember the experience because in everything you exhibited, modeled, lived and breathed “INTEGRITY”! The builders, agents, lenders, and attorneys saw and respected this in you which resulted in appropriate reasonable and customary fees instead of inflated fees and benefited me with MANY Upgrades to my new home!

You did your homework, research, marketing, which resulted in time saved and took all of the worry out of the process! You totally handled your business! Your connections with reputable lenders, who also obviously respect you highly, resulted in a flawless process!

I am so INCREDIBLY Happy! If I could, I would put BILLBOARDS up all over Atlanta recommending you as the only AGENT needed! You’re the Best!

Sincerely,

Sherryl Powell

Dear Van,

Just a note to thank you for assisting us with the purchase of our home. I’m sure that many people are a little reluctant to sell their home to an investor believing that they will not be offered a fair price or that they may be subjecting themselves to an adventure filled with hassles. What a shock it was to find quite the opposite. Anne and I have already recommended your services to our friends and will gladly continue to do so. We could not imagine how it could have gone any easier or smoother.

You immediately made us feel very comfortable with your thorough examination of the house and taking the time to explain everything with us. The price offered was more than fair for the market and condition of our home. We especially appreciated the comparison spreadsheet that your provided and meeting with us to answer all of our questions. The entire sale went exactly as you outlined without any surprises.

Anne and I have driven by twice so far and love what you have done and how you have not intruded on the neighbors during the remodeling process. Your professional and personal attention to all of the details made this a very pleasant experience for us. If time permits, I hope that you will contact Anne when your project is complete so she can see all of the wonderful improvements.

Best regards,

Mr. Van Purser

Van Purser & Associates LLC

We contacted Van in June of 2007, with the idea of selling our home. With 3 homeschooled children, a Labrador, no basement, and a very small backyard, we were experiencing some serious growing pains. Having owned only two houses in the last 11 years, dealing with real estate matters was not something either me or my wife felt very equipped to handle.

The approach Van utilized was completely different than our other real estate transaction experiences. His approach involved knowing what we were looking for and knowing what our objectives were. It was more than just finding out the number of bedrooms and baths. Since my wife homeschools our children, trying to keep our house “show-ready” was nearly impossible. With Van’s counsel we were able to structure our deal where we bought our new home first and sold our existing home second.  Needless to say, project management skills were greatly needed to accomplish both transactions in a relatively short time period.

On the buying side of our transaction Van’s experience paid for itself. Having overpaid for our last house, I was determined this would not occur in our next house. Van did an excellent job of keeping me accountable to this concern. Had we not listened to his counsel, we would have paid about 4% more for our new house. We ended up with a home that met all of our needs and stayed with our stated objectives!!

On the selling side of our transaction, Van’s experience and project management made the experience incredibly smooth. Similar to Van’s work on the determining the value of the home we purchased, he spent a comparable amount of time in determining an appropriate value range on our existing home, with and without certain modifications. We ended up putting some money into our existing house (carpet, paint, miscellaneous repairs) with the expectation of getting a higher return. Van coordinated all of the work, which was completed in a matter of days. Our home went under contract in 21 days at 99.6% of what we were expecting to realize; all this in a very difficult market environment. This confirmed for me that Van’s counsel and assistance were dead-on accurate

At both of our closings, he was our representative throughout the entire process. He equipped us to be fully prepared at closing and assisted with any potential delaying issues from the other parties. He was instrumental in ensuring very smooth and timely closings.

I can’t imagine using anyone else!
