Client Testimonials

6/2010 Dear Trae-    I wanted to take a moment and thank you for the outstanding job you did in selling my home. My home had been on the market 243 days prior to using you with no success in selling/closing. You came on board, made recommendations for enhancing the look of the property, and we had it under contract withing 25 days. The ease of the sell was huge for me while moving my family. I appreciate all you did for me! Thank you- Shellie McDaniel

Trae Gardner began helping us find our dream home 9 months before we actually purchased.  His technical abilities allowed us to find homes that fit our criteria from the comfort of our own home.  With 3 children, that service could not have been more useful.  Trae has experience in buying homes for himself as he had been buying and rehabing homes throughout the year.  This experience helped him spot potential pitfalls in potential properties before we considered making and offer on the home.  His ability to do background research on the property, owners, and the other Realtors was very useful when it came to negotiating the contract.  He even negotiated the tractor and brushhog for us. Trae walked through muddy pastures, riverbeads, and thick woods in helping us find the perfect home.  He even looked after our children while my wife and I discussed the possibilities of each property.  As a Financial Planner, I didn't have a lot of time to drive around and look at properties.  Trae made himself available at a moments notice.  I could not have asked for a better all around real estate professional. Our Family Sincerely Thanks You, Chris Robinson Robinson Financial Group

06/15/2008 “Trae told us up-front exactly what we needed to do to find our dream house. We thought we knew better. Trae was kind enough to work with us on our terms. Turns out, he was right all along and as soon as we started following his lead, we had our dream house. We couldn’t be happier.” Scot & Conni Lamb Scot Lamb Secondary Marketing Analyst Bankers Financial Mortgage Group 214-342-7612

07/2008 My husband and I bought a house in June 2008 with the help of Trae. The first few moments of meeting him and I thought he was just like any other Realtor -- except maybe younger. But after those five minutes my husband and I both realized that there was something different about Trae, He did not follow us around the house and I never got the feeling he was trying to make a sale regardless of what we wanted. He asked a lot of questions; some about what kind of house we wanted, but most about what kind of people we are. He really made an effort to get to know us and I never doubted that he was always looking out for our best interests. Even as we were entered the closing process, Trae was there to listen, reassure and support us. We looked at a lot of different houses and at every single one Trae spent a good amount of time looking for major repair issues and it was very easy to tell that he knows this business. If he gave the thumbs up on a house, we knew we could trust that it was a good, solid investment. We have a Realtor for life and will actually miss spending time with him. Great guy, great values with a sense of humor to boot! Laura Murphy and Mac Ross

08/01/2008 I happened upon Trae’s website as I began my search for another home. I found it to be very easy to navigate through and quite helpful. It not only included the MLS listings, but also much more information than I expected. We were looking for a home to lease, but that did not stop Trae from giving us the best possible service! He spent more time with us than any others would, even though he did not make top dollars getting us into a home. He continually showed his dedication to us, as customers, and always made time when it was convenient for our schedule. Trae stayed with us until we were comfortably in the house and the dust had settled. He is a true professional and has not only earned my respect, trust and confidence, he has also earned my continued business and my referral to others. I would recommend Trae to anyone looking for a devoted realtor, one who truly goes that extra mile, no matter the circumstances! Lt. Gina McFarlin Frisco Police Department

Date: September 15, 2008 Dear Trae: I wanted to drop you a line a let you know how much Jodi and I enjoyed working with you. You made the transition from Georgia to Texas a lot easier. In today’s environment, it’s very hard to find a real estate agent that is willing to go the extra mile like you. I look forward to recommending you to friends, family, and business clients in the future. Sincerely, Larry Jordan, State Farm Insurance
