"Moving to the Spokane area, my wife and I were referred to Rick Carlson by our agent in Georgia. We were searching for a "forever home" for our family and needed an agent who had our best interest in mind and not pander to us just to cash in on a commission. Listening to our list of needs and wants, Rick set us up online with a daily feed of properties in both Idaho & Washington that fit the bill. Showings were scheduled in a reasonable amount of time. It was we who were cautious, while Rick was patient and understanding.
.
A couple of months later, we had an offer submitted on a home that fit our needs. Forcing a Short Sale with our offer, Rick kept us in the loop through the process, answering all the questions we had or deferring us to the subject matter experts. Rick loves the art of the deal, and was a creative and adaptive thinker when it came to preserving our finite funds. Despite some unforseen hiccups within 72 hours of closing, Rick remained level-headed and focused, and got us across the finish line, executing our closing on time.
.
Honesty, personal courage, focus, time management, and communication are other key attributes that come to mind when Rick is working for you. Not suprisingly, Rick is a former U.S. Marine and can adapt to changes, market or client side, quickly with little effort or hesitation. In the end, Rick got us in our "forever home" under budget, and has earned our referrals for a lifetime to come. Lastly, as we've chosen to settle in the Inland Northwest, Rick Carlson will be our go-to man for future investments and purchases." - G.R.B.
