My husband and I have moved quite a bit-12 times realtors were involved! Every single time, we had a different realtor because none of them ever hit the mark. Patrick went above and beyond our expectations as our realtor. He dug into all situations and came t o the table well prepared. He was willing to go to bat for us as his clients and put pressure on the other side when it was needed. He knows the ins and outs of real estate and that gives you, the client, the upper hand. We enjoyed working with him so much, we decided to use him shortly after the purchase of our home to sell another property. WHEN (because we know we will buy/sell again) we need a realtor again, Patrick will always be the one we call.

Patrick was absolutely spectacular throughout the whole process! We recently returned from overseas and had a tight timeline to find and purchase a home. Patrick asked specific questions to make sure he fully understood our goals and tailored the home search to maximize the use of our time. He was well versed with negotiations and had quality contacts in the industry to make sure everything went smoothly on our end. His diligence and commitment allowed us to close early and just prior to a holiday weekend. We highly recommend Patrick with no reservations!

We highly recommend Patrick Furman, our buyer's agent, as one of the best agents we've ever worked with. Patrick was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of our purchase; from market comps to real estate documents to the intangibles of feeling at home in a new house. His team kept us apprised of all upcoming deadlines, and he always went above and beyond on communication, availability. and personal attention to our closing. We would strongly recommend working with him again.

Patrick went above and beyond helping us with the sale of my Mother’s house. He responded immediately to any texts/emails and was able to answer any and all questions we had during the process. His ability to negotiate with the buyer’s agent helped secure an incredible offer at just 25 hour post list. We have used many realtors over the years and he is truly the best by far!

Patrick did a wonderful job and made the process of selling our home easy. There were a few hiccups along the way, but Patrick handled them with ease. We always felt comfortable and were always updated every step of the way. Patrick did a great job and you are lucky to have him as part of your team!

Patrick helped us sell one home and buy another one last summer. It was the smoothest process we’ve ever had. I would recommend him without reservations to anyone in the market.

I appreciate and value your knowledge, flexibility, communication abilities, and commitment. I am having problem after problem with our other property. Even though the purchase of our home was a wild ride we never doubted you. This land sale has gone smoothly as well. I thank you for that.

Thank you again for everything you've done for us. You are the consummate consultants; recognizing that our new home purchase was not simply a real estate transaction but a life transition. That perspective was evident throughout the process. No detail was too small, and you were responsive to all our questions and concerns. You were always professional, knowledgeable, positive, authentic and an absolute delight to be with.

Randall U. & Bronwen F. - Travelers Rest

Patrick was fantastic throughout the process. After taking time to clarify our wide array of possible locations and types of homes, he was quick, responsive, knowledgeable, and helped us find the ideal location. He was readily available to schedule home visits, which was particularly important in the current sellers' market. Beyond that, he had a network of great mortgage options, home inspectors, pest inspectors, which was particularly helpful as we were moving cross country. He really looked out to ensure that every detail was taken care of, from start to after the finish.

Patrick , was the most honest personable gentlemen. We became friends quickly, and he knew exactly what we were looking for in home. I was forced to retire this past year because of a rare cancer , and decided to move closer to my 3 boys families and soon to be granddaughters this summer. The service and care Patrick gave our family was exceptional. Thank you!

How do you thank someone who is now a trusted counselor? You tell everyone how great a realtor and advisor he is. Not only did he sell our house in the country in three days for 96% more than we paid for it four years ago, but he also facilitated our acquisition of another home closer to the city. The house in the country also sold for 5% over the asking price. It wasn’t just about money. Patrick’s energy and commitment made it all work and work very well. His creativity in marketing is exceptional. Just take a look at the pictures and video.
Patrick was available whenever we needed him throughout the selling and buying process. We were ready to walk away several times due to issues with the sellers of the house we bought. He, however, kept us on course through dealing with these very difficult sellers and their realtor.

Barb & Bill M. - Travelers Rest

We had wonderful experience working with Patrick. Patrick has an upbeat personality, he is extremely professional, his attention to detail and communication took all the worry and stress away us. I would highly recommend Patrick.

When my wife and I met Patrick we were interested in moving out of the one house that we called home for nearly 17 years. With absolutely no working knowledge of the housing market we knew we would need serious help. Patrick took the time to listen, explain and literally coach us throughout the entire process. Without a doubt he is a genuine person who speaks honestly and had our family’s best interest at heart.
Furthermore, Patrick proved himself patient when we met at each viewing with our four young children in tow! Oftentimes he would entertain/distract one or more just long enough for my wife and I to look around together.
Patrick helped us sell our home and purchase another house. His dedication and willingness to work with whatever schedule we threw at him made all the difference.
I never felt like Patrick was just “helping us buy a house”, he was fully invested and his service had an extremely positive impact in our personal lives.
