What Client's Have To Say
We discovered T.J. by way of a drive-by.....he was the listing agent on a house we'd found and wanted to see. The house unfortunately had a contract on it already but T.J. wanted to know if he could be of any other help to us.
As first time wannabe homeowners, we knew two things pretty much. Jon wanted affordable. I wanted exposed brick. T.J. somehow didn't let our odd request scare him off, and dove headlong into the first Sunday afternoon of trying to find our perfect house. We had quite a journey over the next month or so - and found quite a few "almost" perfect homes. Then, we decided to put our search on the back burner for a while...
until our landlady decided she needed to sell the house we'd been renting for quite some time immediately. So, a call was made back to T.J.
Within one afternoon he had found the listing on Waters Avenue - which had even more of the things we loved. (He picks up on quite a bit about people personally and takes note!) We got stained glass transoms, original pocket doors, hardwoods, AND exposed brick......and it was affordable for us.
He calmed our jitters, brought us coffee and sweets, and made us laugh - all making our first time home buying quite the great memory.
T.J. Anderson will work his tail off for you. He will listen to you. He will make time for you no matter your crazy schedule. And you will end up with a wonderful experience - and a great house!
Thanks - and happy house hunting!
-Jon & Kaci D.
Real Estate Is More Than A Place To Call Home......
I am the basis of all wealth, the heritage of the wise, the thrifty and prudent. I am the poor man's joy and comfort, the rich man's prize, the right hand of capital, the successful partner of many thousands of successful men. I am the solace of the widow, the comfort of old age, the cornerstone of security against misfortune and want. I am handed down to children, through generations, as a thing of greatest worth. I am the choicest fruit of toil. Credit respects me, yet I am humble. I stand before every man bidding him to know me for what I am, and to possess me. I grow and increase in value through countless days. Though I seem dormant, my worth increases, never failing, never ceasing; time is my aid and population heaps up my gain. Fire and elements I defy, for they cannot destroy me. My possessors learn to believe in me; invariable they become envied. While all things wither and decay, I survive. The centuries find me younger, increasing in strength. The thriftless speak ill of me. The charlatans of finance attack me. I am trustworthy. I am sound. Unfailing I triumph and detractors are disproved. Minerals and oils come from me. I am sound. I am producer of food, the basis for ships and factories, the foundation of banks. Yet I am so common that thousands unthinking and unknowingly pass me by.
