"As a young and novice buyer, I could not have been happier with this team..."

Sam and Dave are wonderful Realtors, who made the buying process easy, fought to get me the lowest price, and helped get all the fixes that the house required. They did not stop after I bought the house either, they continued helping me anything I need. As a young and novice buyer, I could not have been happier with this team and the support they provided me through the whole process. They set me up with a great inspector, who found issue with the house I did not see and then Sam and Dave made sure the seller got them fixed. They also set me up with a great mortgage company that was nothing but helpful. It has been nearly three months and Bernie still helps me with any issue with paper work or questions I have about the mortgage. Sam and Dave made sure that the process went smoothly and was non-stressful. I would recommend them to anyone I know buying or selling a house.

"Your extensive knowledge of real estate was evident..."

Thank you so much for selling Steven’s house.  Your extensive knowledge of real estate was evident in your assessment of the house and of your recommendations to us.  You kept us informed during the process even though we were on vacation and difficult to reach.  We didn’t anticipate the house to sell so quickly!  We attribute that to your diligence to the process and commitment to us.  You treated us fairly and courteously and we will definitely recommend you to family and friends. We won’t hesitate to call you if the needs arises.  We really enjoyed working with you, and thanks again for all your hard work.

"Our home had 5 offers by the night after the first open house."

Based on research and recommendations from others, Team O’Donnell was our first choice to represent us as our realtors.  We had a tough relocation move coming with each of us in separate states.  There were tight deadlines and corporate guidelines.  However, Team O’Donnell makes you feel like friends while still keeping things professional.  They answer your questions truthfully without sugar coating, but at the same time they help you to feel that everything will work out.  Anytime we had a question, they were quick to respond.  They helped us through appraisals, pricing and negotiating.  Our home had 5 offers by the night after the first open house.  In the end, our 1971 home went for an all cash offer 10K above asking price.  Even after the offer was in, Dave and Sam continued to guide us through the process.  We were very pleased with Team O’Donnell’s work and would highly recommend them to anyone. Feel free to share our comments.

"You made our first experience go very smoothly. "

We want to take the time to thank you for going above and beyond for our family to find our forever home.  Even after all the showings of homes all over different zip codes, you always had a smile on your face and always gave us your honest opinion as this was our first time.  You always answered emails, calls, texts and questions in a timely fashion.  You made our first experience go very smoothly.  You will most definitely be referred to our friends and family.  We are forever grateful to Team O’Donnell.  Please feel free to share with potential clients.

"You provided me with exceptional peace of mind..."

It would be my pleasure to recommend both of you and your company to others and provide a reference. You both were entirely invaluable during the whole selling process. From the first point of contact with Dave and his advice of what to do before and after I became involved in the short sale process to getting to closing quickly and efficiently. I couldn’t have managed with you. You provided me with exceptional peace of mind that everything would be handled in my best interest as I was unable to be there. A box of chocolates doesn’t do you justice.

Let me know if I may do anything for you in the future and thank you so much again,

"Have trust in this team and take their advice..."

We met Dave randomly at an open house he was listing. We pulled up thinking we had 45 minutes left based on times we saw online. However, the open house times we saw were wrong and Dave was closing the house up. He not only decided to let us in, but also took an additional 45-60 minutes of his time to talk in detail to us about the property. While we didn’t end up making an offer on that property, we did make a decision to work with Dave moving forward in our search. It was the best decision we could have made! Over a 3 month span (roughly) Dave and his wife Sam, also a realtor, showed us about 25 different properties. They were responsive to EVERY listing we had interest in. Some days we sent a text and within minutes we got a response and 9/10 times we were in that particular house later that day or at the latest the next day. You can tell they truly love what they do and they give you a no pressure feel and understand that this will be the largest purchase you will probably make in your lifetime. From early morning texts to late night phone calls, they were there for us for all of it. Have trust in this team and take their advice with their recommendations for you mortgage needs as well. They truly have a seamless plan from start to finish and have the best knowledge in the business to get YOU to closing as stress free as possible. I will always recommend Dave and Sam!!  P.S. After such an awesome experience on the buying end, I decided to use them on the selling of my first home as well. The details of the listing and pictures they took were top notch. The house sold quickly!!

"It has been our pleasure to refer his services to others..."

We all know real estate is a high dollar transaction but what Team O’Donnell provided us was invaluable. Dave was able to bundle his experience and deliver it in a way that reduced unnecessary stress and provided a calm and positive environment.  Dave was accessible day or night and responded quickly to texts. If it was a detailed conversation that needed to be made by phone, he did not hesitate to call and make sure we understood. He always left a message and did not call repeatedly. Sam provided detailed instructions to make emails easy to understand. Most of the paperwork was signed electronically so we could keep the process moving along if there were any changes to be made.  Dave and Sam communicated very well, both having expert knowledge in the field. They were able to provide answers to our many, many questions. We felt very comfortable throughout the process knowing we had Team O’Donnell on our side. It wasn’t just selling and buying. With Dave’s experience, he was able to recommend homes because he understood and researched the market to match us. That is how he was able to remove the unnecessary stress from the home-buying experience. Only an experienced, knowledgeable professional would have those skills to make this an easy process. That is why Dave and Sam are invaluable and why we recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.  We have recommended Dave and Sam to others for help with buying and selling homes. It has been our pleasure to refer his services to others and so they can experience how easy these transactions can be.

"Not only would we recommend them to a friend but we consider them our friends!"

Dave and Sam are two great people.  There was never a call or email not responded to.  They covered all the bases and were very thorough in all their correspondence.  Not only would we recommend them to a friend but we consider them our friends!

"I was a first-time home buyer and Dave could not have been more helpful."

I was a first-time home buyer and Dave could not have been more helpful.  He took the time to explain all the details of what is required to purchase a home. When I first contacted Dave through email, he promptly responded and arranged a walk-through of the property that I was interested in purchasing.  He was prepared to answer any questions about the property as well as provide useful contacts to help with the process.  Dave made sure to keep in contact throughout the process by using email, phone and text message.  If I ever had a question, I felt that I had multiple ways to contact Dave. I am very happy with how easy it was for me to complete the process of buying a house with Dave’s help.  I would definitely recommend Dave and Keller Williams Realty to a friend, and I give my permission to share my comments.

"...going beyond what one might have expected..."

I want to say that it was certainly my pleasure and good fortune to have met you and have you represent me in selling my dear friend’s home while residing almost a thousand miles away.  As I’m sure you realized at the time, it was not easy for me to become involved in the process given not only the distance, but all the thoughts and emotions of losing a close and longtime friend whom my wife and I shared so many memories with over the years.  What seemed to be a monumental task of selling the house was greatly reduced to a few small tasks on my behalf, as you reached out and coordinated the entire sales process, with all its challenges and the nitty-gritty work that went along with it.  As I mentioned on several occasions, you did a yeoman’s job on each and every aspect of the process, going beyond what one might have expected, but I guess that’s what makes you an “outstanding” realtor and a true “professional”.  Again, I want to thank you for all your assistance and hard work, and I want you to know I value you, not only as a realtor, but as a new friend and should you find yourself in Florida please give me a call. Best regards

Richard Marschner, Smyrna, DE
