First-Time Homebuyers

“ outstanding ”

“ Rick and Cindy did an excellent job in listing our home for sale, making helpful and appropriate suggestions, guiding us through the process and bringing the whole process to closure. They were always available for questions or counsel, always responded quickly and completely, and were very clear and detailed with all communications. Both were very professional and extremely detail oriented. Rick and Cindy definitely know their profession well, and were extremely knowledgeable about the market overall, as well as specifically our Southwest Allen County area. ”

“ Cindy was willing to work with us and our requirements. Was persistent in her sales effort. Has a good knowledge of the business and conditions in the Fort Wayne area. ”

“ Rick is very friendly, patient, and well-informed. Rick showed me a number of homes before I found the house that I wanted. I will recommend Rick to friends and family! ”

“ Rick & Cindy are incredibly friendly and professional. Not only do they go above and beyond to get the job done, but they are very quick to respond and do wonders to work around a busy schedule. I've used them in the past and will use them again. I have referred all my friends and family to them. My kids and I have truly enjoyed working with them. ”

“ I worked with Cindy Shepherd few times. Each time it was excellent experience. ”

“ attentiveness, knowledge, experience ( my friend had raved about her and Rick), pro active communication, personality, I never had to wonder what was going on during the process, , am trying to think of a negative but I just can't come up with one. It was the best, easiest, most personal selling process ever. I will be buying a house in the next few months and won't consider anyone else to help me. ”

“ Rick and Cindy were very attentive and their follow thru was excellent. Their knowledge of current market conditions was excellent. Cindy provided names and phone numbers of contractors to answer our technical questions and take care of all of our needs. They were always on time at the showings and inspections and provided excellent feedback during the negotiation process. This is the third time we have worked with them in the last year, selling one home and purchasing two others. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for brokers that will put the customer first and make sure all their questions and needs are met at any time of day including weekends! ”

“ Cindy is very knowledgeable of the area and market. She is very professional, trustworthy, and prompt. She has many connections that brings an advantage to a buyer and / or seller. She also knows many reputable local home services / contractors such as HVAC, home cleaning, etc. I have worked with Cindy as a seller and now a buyer, and will always choose her to represent me. ”

“ supportive, listened to what I was looking for and helped me through the process of selling and buying my home. ”

“ Rick and Cindy were great to work with. They were very interactive with the whole process from finding a house and taking our suggestions for houses to look at all the way to closing day and checking in after move in day. Highly recommended. ”

“ We have worked with Rick and Cindy Shepherd exclusively since deciding to buy come to Fort Wayne and look at investing in rental properties in 2006. Since then he has been instrumental in the purchase of eight houses and, years later, in the sale of two of those. All of this has been done while we have been living in Arizona and could not have been successful without his "on-site" hard work looking and and evaluating and photographing properties we never saw before deciding whether to purchase or not. He has been our "eyes on the ground" and we have always been extremely satisfied with both his hard work and judgment in dealing with not only the properties we did end up buying, but all of those he looked at and recommended we not purchase. We purchased 7 of those 8 houses without ever seeing them in person until months or even years later, solely based on information from Rick's evaluation. We could not have established our investment real estate portfolio without his efforts and professionalism and cannot recommend him highly enough. ”
