  • I cannot speak highly enough of Tom.


    "To say he went above and beyond, would be an understatement. Tom deftly handled and overcame significant difficulties, that would have led others to give up. I grateful for the work he did. I've been in real estate for almost 30 years. He's one of the few agents I've dealt with, who truly earned every penny of his commission."

Simplify

A tidy, organized home is infinitely more appealing than one littered with everyday clutter that tends to accumulate.

  • Clear countertops, file any loose papers or mail piles, and put toys and miscellaneous objects away.
  • Make beds, clear the sink of dishes and empty the wastebaskets.
  • If necessary, bring in a professional crew to deep-clean rugs and furniture.
