Dear Mr. Buck, 12-01-00

First of all, thank you for all you have done for us. As you know, we had been looking for a new home for an entire year. We didn’t have an agent, so we went to a lot of open houses and met a lot of agents. Some were no help at all; others were somewhat helpful for a while but with a great deal of pressure. You, on the other hand were extremely helpful for a long time, and you never pressured us at all. Then you did an expert job representing us in what I consider a fairly large transaction. All in all, since we found you, what was difficult became easy and we know live in the house of our dreams.

Sincerely,

Donovan McCray Rolling Hills Estates

This is a long overdue thank you for getting us into our first home. As you know, it wasn't easy for us to get into a place in Rancho PV, but thanks to your efforts we found the perfect starter townhome. I admit I shopped around a bit for the right realtor, but I stopped once I met you. Your knowledge and analysis of the market, aggressiveness, and can-do attitude were qualities I found nowhere else. I particularly appreciated that you listened to our needs and bent over backwards to satisfy them, even if that meant making up for failures on the seller's end. We were not the typical (wealthy) buyers in this market, but that didn't matter to you.

Unfortunately, we are long past naming our first born after you, Jason, but we will certainly remember you in a few years when we are ready to move up to our next home!

Many thanks from Maria, Steve, Noelle, and Samuel
