"I wanted to take a few minutes to share my experience with Ken Libby and Stowe Reality. I recently closed on a very difficult sale. I am writing this because, if not for ken and his staff, I do not believe the sale would have happened. For the sake of civility I will refrain from comment on the buyer. Let me just say that because of the buyer, the Realtors and Lawyers for both parties have commented on this transaction being the most unusual and/or difficult they can remember. I owe Ken a debt of gratitude for making it happen. He helped us make the best of a very bad situation."

Tell us one of your client success stories or an interesting moment in your profession.
Most interesting moments are when you help someone achieve something that they thought was impossible. I had a commercial seller one day ask what is property was worth, gave him some advice about keeping it another year and how to make his Net more reasonable and 12 months later was able to help him sell it about 20% above what he thought it was worth the year before. He has gone on to be extremely successful as a developer in the area.

No matter what you do 50% of the people will support you and 50% will disagree. The only person you have to live with and be comfortable with is the person you see in the mirror each morning.
