Christopher Rich, REALTOR  -  Testimonials from homebuyers and homesellers

  
"It is with great pleasure that I write this letter regarding Realtor Christopher Rich, our real estate agent and whom we now consider as a friend. William Raveis Real Estate must be proud for having among their core of realtors a person of the quality of Christopher Rich.

I "located" Chris via the web and was impressed by his motto, "I measure success. one family at a time.". His sincerity and care was one of the many aspects that made us choose him as our agent. He is very caring, personable, and has a professional attitude mixed with a great sense of humor. He is also very patient, organized and knowledgeable in his field. When he became our representative, he was quick to set-up a website showcasing our property and provided us with constant phone or e-mail updates. I believe that Chris went beyond the call of duty by coming up with ideas to market our property as well as stress his continuous marketing ideas and going out of the way trying to please our constant demands.

What a person looks for in an agent is someone who is looking after the customer's bottom line, and I dare say, Chris was always there to give us sound and honest advice regarding our property. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend Christopher Rich to anyone who is looking for someone who will give them an honest assessment of the value of their property, advice on how to deal with the unexpected, and who will go out of his way to make the selling or buying of your property a smooth one.

"From our first contact with Christopher Rich of William Raveis Real Estate, he asked smart questions and made a genuine effort to understand our needs in a home (and indeed he found us the right one). By the same token, he made sure that we had a good grasp of the local market in Fairfield County and has assisted us in every step of the process of buying. Especially helpful to us was the fact that Chris was readily available by email or phone, whenever we had a question. He made the process, which ended up taking many months to locate the right home, a thoroughly enjoyable one, and his optimism and overall good attitude were, frankly, priceless and kept us going when it seemed we might never find what we wanted. We can't recommend him highly enough, whether you are planning a sale or a purchase of a home; he is truly devoted and quite good at what he does."

"Christopher Rich accomplished the impossible: he found me a great condo at a great price and at the same time he was able to handle all my neurotic fears about moving in the first place. I can't recommend him enough."

~ Linda Howard

"When we decided to look for a house in Connecticut, we wanted to work with someone who would understand our particular concerns regarding the community and acceptance. We are so glad we found Chris Rich!

Not only was he knowledgeable about Connecticut and the changing real estate market but he had lots of patience as we figured out where we wanted to live. We never felt pressured and he showed us numerous homes to ensure that we were making the right decision.

After we found our home in Roxbury, Chris continued to be very accommodating. He arranged to be at all the inspections and closings and, as we were living in New York, he took numerous photographs of the property for us.

We had a great experience working with Chris. He made the process enjoyable and as hassle free as possible. We would definitely work with Chris again!"

"Purchasing your first home is always stressful, purchasing your first home in a new state, as a lesbian couple is even more stressful. Finding Christopher Rich made the whole process the exact opposite. We felt so comfortable with him after our first meeting and formed a great relationship with him. Thanks to his patience and knowledge of the Fairfield and New Haven areas we found the perfect home."

We decided we would move from Westchester County in New York and settle in Fairfield County back in February, 2006. While doing a search on the web, we located Christopher Rich. After spending a Saturday looking at potential homes in Stamford CT, we knew we had found not only a realtor, but a friend. Chris went the extra mile to find homes that would fit our budget, personalities and our lifestyle.

Chris knew that we were anxious about the whole home-buying process. He was a calming influence, and showed an immense amount of patience and kindness when we would call regularly to gain updates on the progression of the purchase. Chris is so knowledgeable about the real estate business, and guided us throughout the purchase of our new home.

We are extremely grateful to Chris for his professional guidance and for his friendship. We have already recommended him to friends and will continue to do so without hesitation.

~ Peter and Mark

Working with Chris was an unexpected pleasure. When we began the search for our new home, we came across Chris on the internet and never looked back. His expertise, personality and professionalism made us feel at ease right from the start! Even after the sale, Chris continued to assist us; always with a smile and a quick response. Our dream is to own a Bed and Breakfast in Provincetown and we cannot wait to begin that search; but only with Chris. He better get that Massachussets license soon!

As Ellen DeGeneres said on her show about Christopher Rich "If it's important to me, it's important to him." This is very true. If anything is important to you as a client, it is important to Chris. Chris follows up on every detail of the real estate transaction. He takes the extra step that others don't so everything goes as smoothly as possible. That is a tough task in the real estate world and Chris comes through with flying colors.

Chris is an excellent realtor! If you want your transaction to go through with less headaches, Chris is your guy! He is one of the most knowledgeable and honest people I know. He is highly recommended!
