You actually bought my home so that I could buy my dream home!
I can’t tell you how extremely happy I am with the results you got for me while selling my home and purchasing my new one. Looking back it’s clear to me that I should have called you in the first place. I had my home for sale with other realtors previously; however they were not able to relieve the stress of not knowing if my home would sell.You actually bought my home so that I could buy my dream home! It was such a relief and a weight off my shoulders just knowing that my home was sold no matter what. Your entire team was very helpful and it is obvious that you all work to a higher standard. Jennifer was very professional and knowledgeable, and I found the communication with your team to be far better than I have experienced with other realtors. The weekly updates were much appreciated and important to me.I am not aware of anyone else who would actually keep a promise so big that they would buy my house so that I could go on to purchase another! You stood by your promises and I couldn't be happier! Thanks again for everything. Valerie Lockstead

Sold our home in only 16 days for 98.61% of our asking price
We had been aware of all the marketing you did and when we decided to sell our home, you were the natural choice of a Realtor to speak with. We wanted to relocate and have our children in their new school before the school year started and we had to get our home sold quickly to enable us to do that. When we met, the way you went through all the details, the Market Analysis and the
accurate pricing of our home was most impressive. Your attention to detail in explaining everything and your prompt attention to everything from your entire team was amazing. We always knew what was going on and you never left us hanging. You did a great job and sold our home in only 16 days for 98.61% of our asking price. We have already been talking to our friends about the excellent service you provided.
Thanks again. Karen & David Salter

Our Home SOLD in 30 Days for $6,000 more !
We had worked with other Realtors in the past and had horrible experiences. Promises were made and not kept. It seemed as if the only reason our home was not selling was because of our price. The Realtors did not hold themselves accountable. We had our home listed for 7 months with another realtor and kept reducing the price, and it still didn't sell. The difference in our experience with you and your team was like night and day. There was absolutely no comparison between what you did and what others had done for us. It seemed every thing you did far exceeded our expectations. Shortly after we were finished with our other Realtor, we listed our home with you and SOLD it in 30 days for $6,000 more than we even had it listed for with the other Realtor. Then, once we had found a home that we really wanted, we couldn't afford to buy it without, first, selling our home. We did not want to loose the opportunity to buy the home we had fallen in love with, so Gil stepped in and gave us an unconditional offer to buy our home, which we accepted.The banks approved us to be able to actually buy the home we really wanted, based on the offer you gave us.We would not have been able to do this had it not been for your unconditional offer to buy our home. The story gets better though. We received another offer from someone else to buy our home , which we had just agreed to sell to Gil unconditionally. The new offer was for $10,000.00 more money than we had accepted from Gil. What happened next was just incredible, and went way above and beyond what we would ever expect a Realtor to do! Gil, very professionally, helped us put the new offer together with another buyer, and actually allowed us to sell the home to someone else for a lot more money than we had accepted from Gil! We got to keep the additional $10,000.00, not Gil, and we were able to buy the home of our dreams! We are so impressed with how much work your entire team did for us and all you did to ensure we were able to help us get the home we really wanted. We have never heard of any other Realtor who is so accountable that they will actually offer to buy your home so you can buy another one. Gil's program is unbelievable! We got the best of both worlds, in selling our home and buying our new home.You can not put a price on the piece of mind you have given us, and we know that you have helped us do the best thing for our kids and our entire family. We will truely enjoy our new home for years to come.
Thank you so much Gil!Manuel & Lisa Almeida

Gil absolutely lived up to all his promises.
We are very happy and very relieved that you got our home sold. We tried selling our home without using a Real Estate Agent and were unsuccessful. We wasted alot of time and we already had a new home to go to and were worried about moving and leaving this house sit empty. We initially came into contact with Gil through one of his websites and when he came to meet with us, his presentation to us was so very professional, we knew we had found the right person to sell our home. Gil guaranteed he would sell our home and sell it in a reasonable period of time.
Gil actually bought someone elses home so they could buy ours! We did not have to entertain another offer "Subject to Selling" their home. We find it hard to imagine someone would buy someone elses home so that they could buy ours. Gil absolutely lived up to all his promises completely and then went further to ensure we were looked after. My wife and I realize just how fortunate we were to have found you and we can't thank you enough for the wonderful job you did for us. The uncertainty of not having our home sold caused us a lot of sleepless nights. Finally now that our home is sold, we got a good night sleep again.

We ultimately sold our home for $6,000 more.
We are absolutely ecstatic that you got our home sold so we could buy another home that we really had our hearts set on. We tried unsuccessfully to purchase the other property on our own, however were unable to proceed when we were unable to get our home sold. We realized that the market was very challenging at the moment and it was the first time we ever found ourselves in this situation, given current market conditions. We initially chose to work with Gil because of his Guaranteed Sale Program. We were hesitant at first, however the security Gil gave us by way of an unconditional contract to buy our home allowed us to buy the other home at a great price, knowing our home was already sold!
We accepted Gil's offer, and continued to market our property, to try to get more money, which we did in only 42 days. We ultimately sold our home for $6,000 more than we were even asking and $15,000 more than Gil had agreed to buy it for. The best part is, we were able to keep the additional money, making this an even better deal for us! Gil actually Guaranteed to Buy our home so we could buy another one and ended up in an even better position than if we had sold it ourselves! We find it hard to imagine any Realtor would actually buy someones home so that they could buy one of his listings. Gil absolutely lived up to all our expectations completely and then went further to ensure we looked after.
We can't thank you enough for the wonderful job you did for us. Sid & Pat Scull

We were absolutely thrilled wtht he results of your team in selling opurhome. You didn't just make empty promises you delivered and sold our home quickly and for nearly our full asking price! We should have listed with you in the first place instead of wasting five months with another realtor. We found out the hard way that other realotrs didn't work for us it was us doing all the work. When it somes to buying or selling we wouldn't hesitate to recommend you and your team.Thank you so much.

I live out of town and wanted a realtor I could count on to get the job done professionally and done quickly, without a lot of hassle. You came highly recommended to me from two different sources, as someone with an aggressive marketing plan who gets results and that was what I needed. Initially we may have priced the home too high, but with the evidence you showed me, we set the price right for today’s market and we saw immediate activity, just like you suggested. I can’t tell you what a relief it was to know there was a whole team of people backing you up and helping to get the job done. You sold my home in 29 days and for full asking price, even in this difficult market! Thank you again so much for all you did.

Why was choosing Grant Klatik from Gil Szabo & Associates the best real estate decision we have ever made? Because in a “sellers” market, life is simple: you list, show and sell. However, in a “buyers” market you need so much more: honest appraisal, strategy, connections, persistence and above all, hard work. And that is what Grant delivered. He gave us a completely honest opinion of how much our house should be listed for. Would we recommend the company to other sellers? We already have. Would we continue to recommend them? In a heart beat. Diane and Bob Calhoun

I am so very happy with the recent sale of my home. You and your team made the whole process so easy for me, and I cant thank you enough.
When it came time to sell my home, I knew I wanted someone I could trust. You lived up to all the promises you made and I know my home sold as fast as it did because you were realistic and called it like you saw it. I trusted your advice, set the right price for my home and had an accepted offer with in a month!!!.
The team concept you have works beautifully, and is very different from the way other realtors I have worked with do things. Everyone is so organized and the constant communication and weekly updates are fantastic. I was never left wondering and all my calls were always handled promptly. You have a very positive attitude and approach toward helping people, youre not just gathering another paycheck, and I think that goes a long way!
Thank you so much! Beryl Oliver
