To Whom it May Concern:
 
    I recently had the pleasure of working with Curt Lerew to purchased a condominium in the Desert Ridge area of Phoenix, Arizona.  After several failed attempts, from my home in Alaska, at seeking the assistance of other real estate agents in the Phoenix area I stumbled upon Curt's web page on the internet.  He indicated on his web page that he specialized in this NE area of Phoenix and the Cave Creek area so I picked up the phone and talked to him personally that day.  Curt was very warm and professional and knew the area that we were interested in very well.  As we worked together to narrow down our search I immediately became aware that no matter what I asked of him he would always give me more than asked in return.  As an example I asked him for a few photos of a property and he immediately went out that same day and not only took pictures of all the positive things about the property but he also would show me photos of the negatives of each property as well.  I could tell immediately that he just wasn't interested in a quick sale but was actually there to protect my best interests.  Because our experience in Phoenix was so limited he also counseled me on what was preferred by savvy buyers in the area so I wouldn't get taken advantage of in the process.  Curt helped me make a low offer on a property that was based on due diligence not on current market rates in the area.  He also in this offer had the seller pay all the expenses and transfer fees for this property.  Curt saved us a bundle by doing this.  Once our offer was accepted I flew down to Arizona to see this property personally before we finalized the deal.  Curt not only showed me this property but also showed me some of the other properties that we had looked at just to make sure I was 100% comfortable with my decision.  He spent three days with me dedicating himself to this purchase process and my comfort.  I was truly blown away by his professionalism, dedication to me as his client, and his knowledge of the area.  I highly recommend Curt to you and will recommend him to anyone we know that will be looking to purchase property in Phoenix, Arizona in the future.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.
 
Sincerely;

Curt:
I can't thank you enough for your help in selling my parents' home both in terms of the "usual" real estate expectations - marketing, communications with me, negotiating the deal, etc., but especially more so in the "other" things you did for me being an owner living 2000 miles away.  From your connections for pool service, yard maintenance, and repair when the patio roof came crashing down, to keeping an eye on the place (boat trailer mysteriously appearing in the carport) when I couldn't be there.  You made this emotionally tough situation go as smoothly as possible for me and I will always be grateful to you for that.
Thank you!

This is a letter of recommendation for Mr. Lerew.  Our house stood in the market for several months without a single bid.  Mr. Lerew stepped in and quickly assessed the situation and gathered data points to realistically set the listing price which included visits to new home constructions.  He conveyed the information to us and also hired all the professionals needed to get the house in top shape.  Within a month, we got an offer and successfully sold our house.  His willingness to invest time in obtaining current market data (not just the real estate database) and ability to realistically price a home is what sets him apart from his competition.  We also liked the fact that he does not trap you in his contract, it only takes 24 hours notice to terminate your agreement with him vice 3-6 months.  Also, the contractors he works with were both reliable and reasonably priced.  Mr. Lerew was also pleasant to work with.  In this tough market, we highly recommend Mr. Lerew to serve your real estate needs.  You may contact us for further information.

We are pleased to provide a recommendation on behalf of Mr. Curt Lerew, who represented us in the sale of our home in Arizona.  Our son, who had sold his home in Phoenix, recommended Curt to us.
We found Curt to be professional and very approachable with regard to any questions we had during the process.  He was respectful when letting us know what he felt should or should not be done to make our property marketable in the current environment.  Curt demonstrated his excellent relationship with others in the business and is knowledgeable about reasonable costs for various services.  He was able to accomplish our wishes in a timely manner and followed through on details.
We felt our property was well advertised.  Curt was always available to us and communicated progress by phone or e-mail.  We highly recommend Curt Lerew to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and trustworthy professional.
If we can answer any questions or provide additional information based on our experience with Curt, please don’t hesitate to call us.

Sincerely
Kay R. Miller

This letter is written in recommendation of Curt Lerew.
Curt came highly recommended by a friend.  We were
in the process of selling a house in the midst of a real
estate market experiencing a downturn.  After interviewing
many realtors we met Curt and hired him on the spot.
 
 
Curt has a professional manner yet he is very much at ease
when faced with challenges.  In our first endeavor, Curt clearly outlined
what need to be done to sell the property.  Beyond that, he
identified people to do the work and religiously monitored the
quality of their work and progress, to ensure the work
was finished in a timely fashion.
 
Our transaction came to a successful conclusion within a few weeks.
 
We contracted with Curt to immediately work on a rental
property.  The best words to describe Curt are "Can do."
 
If you have any question please don't hesitate to contact me.
 
Sincerely,

I used Curt Lerew for the purchase of my home and I would recommend him to anyone. I had spoken briefly with a few different agents about the areas I was interested looking and my price range and none of them seemed to go out of their way to help me. A friend of mine told me to talk to Curt. The same day I had emails and links to look at for multiple properties in the area. He is extremely knowledgeable and really went out of his way to assist me and help me find something that I really loved. Another plus, was that Curt was always on top of responding back to me, he would return messages and emails promptly, which is very important to me.  Thanks again, Curt!

Mr. Curt Lerew

CityOne Realty Co.

 

 

Dear Curt,

 

Now that our Scottsdale home has sold, Janet and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all your assistance.  We realize that this is an extremely difficult real estate market and we feel that your actions as our agent were critical to successfully completing our deal.

 

First, we were amazed at the level of traffic that reviewed our home.  When most houses on the market – including others for sale on our very street – seemed to get very few interested parties, ours seemed to have steady visits from qualified buyers.  We attribute the difference to the high quality of the website and flyers you put together.  In fact, several potential buyers told us they had narrowed their search to our house and a few others based solely on the website.  Building our new home and moving was quite a busy time for us and the fact that so many of the potential buyers were qualified and very interested kept us from wasting any time.

 

We were also happy with your professional attitude and obvious experience.  This helped not only with fair pricing in a changing market but also in responding to offers and negotiating the final deal.  As you know, it is very easy to become emotionally attached to your home and it really helped us to have you as a calm and insightful influence as we moved to the next phase of our lives.

 

In closing, we would like to say thanks again for all your help.  We plan to purchase one or two rental properties in the near future and will definitely be giving you a call.  We have also recommended you to a friend of ours who is looking for a more aggressive realtor for his property.  We look forward to working with you again soon.

 

Sincerely,
