You want Chuck on your side.

“It was a bit of a wild ride, but I can’t think of anything I would have done differently! Chuck would give me information and wait to hear my thoughts before giving his thoughts/guidance. As a new home buyer, this approach allowed me to learn and to feel heard.  And I know he advocated for me on multiple occasions, and I deeply appreciated that. Another thing that I really appreciated was the referrals for inspections, HVAC, etc.  I thought I would have to figure that all out on my own. If you’re thinking about buying a home, get a good agent.  I know a guy. Also, it sounds cheesy, but just be patient. Everything will work itself out. Chuck is a great human, has been doing this for years, and you want him on your side.”
