Client

"We are forever thankful to have crossed paths with Dieter and Melanie. As cheesy as it sounds, in our minds, when we think of the word, "Realtor," we use them as our benchmark. They are professional, detail oriented, sharp and to the point.

"We have worked with Dieter and Melanie on three transactions over the last 20 years. Each time we have been impressed with everything about the process. We have recommended them to friends and they have had similar experiences. They do a great job of saying what they are going to do, and doing what they say.

As a team they provide a great balance, bringing good judgement about people and the local real estate markets to bear on the situation."
