So many sold signs!

Timothy Salisbury — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 12:00:33 +0000

The reason we called Timothy in the first place was because of his many sold signs in the neighbourhood. He was very helpful, professional, always in contact with us, and worked around our schedule. I always appreciated knowing when potential buyers were coming, even when I couldn’t be home, and I liked it that it wasn’t necessary for me to leave home every time someone wanted to visit. Overall, I was very satisfied with Timothy and the Team.
