They were patient as I figured out what I wanted as a first time home buyer. They made the process extremely easy and worry-free. I found my house within a week of working with Gwen and Colleen. As soon as I told Colleen that I found the house I wanted, she contacted the seller's agent immediately. I found out within two days that the house was mine. They really made the whole experience wonderful. Thanks again!"

The words that come to mind after working with you are: sound counsel. You were trustworthy and thorough, energetically finding and researching properties that might be a good fit for us. You helped us learn of both their best points, and also any issues that might be of concern. You were patient with our (endless!) questions, quick to get back to us with answers, and helpful with guiding us through the settlement process...You were also willing to go the extra mile to accommodate our schedules, several times meeting us at 8:00 a.m. to show us a home because that was when we could do it. Our interests were your interests, and you remained determined to stick by us until we found the home of our dreams. Thank you so much, Jen, for helping us find the perfect home for us, at the perfect price and the perfect location. You have been a Godsend."

"Needless to say selling a home in the best of times is a stressful experience, but selling one at this time the stress is compounded. Gwen's and Colleen's dedication, professionalism, knowledge, understanding and patience helped tremendously to alleviate a great deal of that stress. We were very comforted knowing they were there looking out for our best interests. This was our first experience selling a home so we were quite uneducated as to the process and procedures involved. Consequently, we were in daily contact with Gwen for over a year and never once did she show any signs of being impatient with the daily questions and concerns. She never let more than a day go by before she responded to phone calls or emails. Gwen and Colleen were always there and always supportive; we felt like we were their only clients and had their undivided attention. Many, many thanks to Gwen and Colleen for doing so much to help us realize our dream of moving to Montana.

"Nancy,
I can't begin to thank you enough for your expertise and advice as we sold our house in Baltimore County. As you well know, the market has been formidable, but you persevered until you found an interested and qualified buyer. Then, through your willingness to cooperate and coordinate with all of the inspections and repairs, you provided us with service above and beyond that of any Realtor I have ever met.
...We had tried other Realtors before we met you, and none of them worked as hard, as long, or as effectively as you did...You still believe, as I do, in Open Houses...Your conscious effort to advertise our house in areas where potential buyers could see it, and the gorgeous postcards you sent in a mass mailing are examples of the things you did to make our house sell. No other Realtor put as much time and effort into our house as you did...
I am so glad that I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with you...I will be happy to recommend you...thank you so much for all of your help, support, advice and caring."

"I am writing to thank Riley & Associates, and especially Colleen Quinn, for a superb job on the marketing and sale of our home in Parkton. My husband and I were very hesitant about the use of a real estate agent for the sale of our home...However, we knew that we were now selling our home in a tough real estate market and needed a professional. We have never been happier and have never regretted using your services.

When it was time to pick a realtor there was never a hesitation in my mind that Colleen was the right person for the job. She has an excellent reputation in the community, but I wasn't sure about Riley & Associates...Now that I can reflect on my experience with Colleen and Riley & Associates, I realize that I made the best choice possible. I had a wonderful time selling my house. All of the employees that I interacted with at Riley & Associates were kind, friendly and most important - professional. I describe this company to my friends and family as a "hidden gem" in Northern Baltimore County.

I will always recommend Colleen Quinn to anyone selling or buying a home. Her knowledge of the real estate market and dedication to her job are top notch and unsurpassed by anyone."

We always felt at ease with Gwen's expertise in the real estate market based upon her knowledge of the area, her good judgment of potential homes which met our specific criteria as well as her eye for the aesthetic of a home and neighborhood. Gwen was persistent yet patient, always professional, yet light-hearted when necessary, positive yet honest, upbeat yet candid, dedicated and funny.

Truly, the facts of our experience with Gwen speak for themselves. In her guidance, we sold our home in less than a week (upon receiving multiple offers) and found and moved into the home of our dreams. We feel we could not have been in better, more capable hands than Gwen's throughout the home buying and selling process. Thank you, thank you Gwen, for making our home sale a positive and rewarding experience and our home purchase an unqualified, happy success. "

As we made our way through the homes, we found the one we thought would be the perfect first home for us and the perfect place to start a family. We immediately submitted a contract and went on to purchase the house we loved and still live in today along with our 1 year old daughter.

I would recommend Laura to absolutely anyone in need of an agent, whether it's to buy or sell a home. When the time comes to move from our townhome into a single family home, she will be the first person we call, as we know she is not only a trusted and reliable agent, but someone we consider a friend who will be there for us and fight for us every step of the way."

"My husband and I have had the privilege of working with Laura Christensen for several years now. She has not only assisted us in the purchase of two beautiful homes, but she has also orchestrated an extremely lucrative sale of one of those homes. In Maryland, in September of 2004, we were able to purchase our first home as a result of Laura's exceptional negotiation skills and her patient, wise advice. Then in the summer of 2007, we had outgrown our first home and were ready to make another move. Although we were selling in a risky buyer's market, Laura was able to assertively negotiate a very profitable deal for us. Because of her real estate expertise and excellent timing, we were able to secure a considerable sum to use as a down payment on our next home. Laura once again found the perfect home for us in a great area in York, Pennsylvania. Her vast knowledge of the area helped us to be confident in our decision. In addition to finding the home, she was able to negotiate a deal thousands of dollars less than the asking price. Thanks to Laura, we are now happily residing in a gorgeous home that has already risen in value.

Laura has always been straightforward, honest, and fair. We have consistently been able to trust anything she tells us, because we have seen her choose our well-being over her profit. In her, we have a found so much more than an agent; we have found a friend who genuinely cares about her clients and seeks their needs above her own gain. "

"Barb and I would just like to let you know how much we appreciate your efforts in getting our home sold. 2007 was a tough year to sell a house. The advice you and your associates gave us, while not exactly what we wanted to hear,was especially helpful to us in making the house presentable and priced properly. Those first few days, when the listing is fresh, are so important. As you know, and to the surprise of many, we had 3 offers in the first 8 days. And with your advice, we wound up selling at our asking price in only 11 days. That allowed us to close quickly and complete the purchase of our home in New Hampshire so we could get busy with our new adventure. Our experience is a testament to getting, accepting,and acting on creditable advice.

I would also like to thank you for your extra efforts in handling the inspections and helping us get the necessary repairs done. With us out of town, had you not helped us out with finding and scheduling the inspections and repairs, we never would have been able to complete the improvements in time for closing.

Thanks again and hope that '08 will be a great year for you!"

"We selected Bruce Wisnom as our realtor because of his knowledge of this area of northern Baltimore County, his reputation as a man of integrity, and his commitment to professionalism and excellence.

Bruce spent quality time with us from the initial meeting when he presented and explained the seller documents to us; his recommendation on listing price was researched and appropriate for the market. Bruce communicated with us through every step of the process, giving progress reports, feedback from showings, explanation of documents, etc.

Bruce's technique in marketing our home brought in realtors and potential buyers right away, and our home was sold to a family who we believe will love and enjoy the home as much as we did during our years in Parkton. Bruce was a blessing to work with and, if we had the chance to sell or buy another home in this area, Bruce would be our realtor of choice."

We were relocating from an overseas assignment and had very little time to work with. We have two small children and our first priority was get our residence established so we could get them enrolled in school. We had to work with Gene via phone and two quick visits to the States, one by my wife and the second by me. We did not move back to the US until late in December and wanted to have our house ready to go by early January.

We were under a tremendous amount of stress and Gene put us at ease. He worked diligently to help us find our new home and see the options in the area and in our price range. In the two years that we were away the market had really changed!

We needed an agent who had patience, was willing to work a lot of hours in a short amount of time, and go the extra mile for us while we coordinated over the phone and by email. He had to take care of many details for us as we weren't phyiscally here to do it.

I have a sales management position and I will definitely recommend Gene to my many contacts.

"I would like to share my experience with anyone that is considering using Riley and Associates or anyone that is currently using them. At the beginning of my home search I thought our situation would be simple and easy. Needless to say I was wrong and we took forever to find the house that we wanted (about 4 months) - Colleen Quinn our realtor took us to every house that we wanted to see and helped us find a bunch more that fit our criteria, never seeming exasperated or tired. She was in the search with us and an advocate for our needs. We eventually found our dream home and then had a tumultuous 6 months of financing issues. During this time Colleen battled with us and was truly wonderful and supportive. We could not have made it through this ordeal and now be living in our home without her help. Thank You!"

"We wanted to express our sincere gratitude for your help with selling our home.

Patti, we were so impressed by your thorough marketing campaign. When you presented your comprehensive market analysis and your strategy to sell our home, we knew we had found the best agent in town. You never let us down from the beginning to the end of the sales cycle. What impressed us most is that you had to overcome many obstacles to sell our home, the fact that we listed the property the week of Thanksgiving, we were in the middle of a market slump/ "correction" and we needed to sell the property wihtin 60 days. Your enthusiasm and confidence in our property helped us to feel at ease that you would be able to sell our home quickly and at a better than average market price. You did everything you promised and more. In the end you really came through for us by tying up all of our loose ends and facilitating our closing.

Again, we cannot thank you enough and we wish you the best of luck. If we can ever provide a reference for you please don't hesitate to let us know."

"In the Spring of 2006, my husband and I had the pleasure of working with Colleen Quinn. Colleen was new to real estate but her confidence put us completely at ease! We ended up putting our 100+ year old farm house on the market after stumbling across a newer house that we loved. (Colleen had us looking at the house the same day we found it!) We quickly pursued selling and buying. There was never a question who Colleen or Riley was working for!

Being a novice, Colleen never hesitated to defer any questions to Cindy Riley which reassured us even more that we were in good hands! This particular sale involved an old home, farmland, a relocation company and out of state buyers! I can't imagine a more difficult sale or purchase!

At times Colleen was a psychologist, an interior decorator, a babysitter, a marriage counselor, a mover, an agent... but always a friend!

If we ever need the services of a real estate agency again, Colleen and Riley & Associates would be the first people we call... we were treated with respect, kindness, expert knowledge and fairness, but most of all, we knew we were number one!

Thanks so much for a wonderful
"moving" experience!!

Gratefully, Jane Price "

"Doug,

Congrats on your new position. I'm confident that any Realty Company that lucked out and lured you and your clientele following... found the GOOSE that laid the golden eggs.

I put your Lifestyle Magazine in my customer waiting lounge, which traffics 30 to 50 clients per diem. My eyes also trip over your cards at the Ashland cleaners every week.

Stay in touch!"

Gary & Dawn, Hereford, MD
"Dear Doug,

I was glad to hear from you, I miss our search for the perfect property. Unfortunately you found mine and I want to thank you every time we get the chance to walk outside. We really love being in the Hereford Zone. The people that we've met thru sports and our nature hikes are great. I can't thank you enough!

Dawn is doing really well with the Hair Shop; the kids are enjoying their schools and new friends we meet along the way. It all is the greatest experience of my life!

I hope you and the boys are doing well and hope to see you soon. YOU ARE THE BEST REALTOR I'VE EVER MET. Go sell, but enjoy yourself as I know you will."
