"My wife and I initially reached out to Dave after a GayRealEstate.com search of LGBTQIA+ friendly realtors in the area we wanted to buy. Being from out-of-state, we were completely clueless as to where to start.Originally, we planned to buy our first home in the Grand Rapids area. However, we both ended up getting jobs in Kalamazoo. Despite being far away and out of our search zone, Dave was still with us in every step of the home-buying process. He helped bridge communication to a realtor in our area, and continued to keep tabs on potential homes we wanted to view. At one point, Dave even drove hours to show us a house near our area. Much to our chagrin, it didn't end up being the one we chose to purchase, but Dave was nevertheless kind and supportive. When we did finally find the home of our dreams, Dave was still there to make sure we had good communication with our lender and realtor. He was professional, quick to respond, and offered practical advice. I would not recommend a better realtor for you, whether it's your first time buying a home or your fifth. Thank you, a million times over, Dave, for being a part of our team!"
