ZillowVERIFIEDFrom day 1, Craig was responsive, thorough, and an active advocate on our search for the perfect home. He took time to get to know what we wanted and had the patience when that plan changed. He has a deep knowledge of home construction and renovation and can spot potential problems that aren?t apparent to an untrained eye. Ultimately, he helped us find our dream home and we couldn?t be happier. I highly recommend that you use his services and I will actively recommend him to all my friends who are looking to buy a home.

ZillowVERIFIED Craig helped me with my first home purchase four years ago. Now that it?s was time to sell and buy another home, we decided to utilize his expertise once again. Craig was able to get us above asking price on the sale of our property and negotiate some extras on the new home. Craig really goes above and beyond for his clients. So much so that I even had my sister hire him as her agent when she was purchasing a home. My wife and I now consider Craig a friend, and will only go through him for any real estate transactions going forward.

ZillowVERIFIED Throughout the entire buying process, Craig was by our side. During some difficult negotiations, Craig kept a cool and leveled head and had our best intentions at the forefront of every decision. I would recommend Craig to anyone looking to buy or sell as he is communicative and will to help in any way he can. Thanks, Craig!

ZillowVERIFIED Craig was an incredible partner to have for our home buying experience. We were first time home buyers and started off with limited knowledge. Craig never tried to push into something we couldnt afford and worked hard to find us properties that matched what we were looking for. We found our perfect home in Gorham and knew that the area was very competitive. Our first offer submitted on a home ended up being the only offer. Craig got us under contract and beat out the other offers without putting us over budget. His reputation in this industry with other realtors is excellent, which helps more than you would think when purchasing a house. Hes reasonable, funny, and smart about real estate. HIGHLY recommend Craig. Already have referred him to friends who are looking to buy a house.

ZillowVERIFIED If you are looking for a knowledgeable realtor in the southern Maine area you MUST contact Craig Candage. Craig from day one made it very clear that this was our home buying experience and we werent going to be satisfied with anything less than our true dream home. His dedication is evident each and every day; filtering listings, reaching out to potential sellers, communicating with lenders and giving us the best advice when asked a million different questions. We have bought 3 homes to date and this was bay far the easiest and most enjoyable of them all. No need to look for another realtor again and exactly why Craig has been awarded as a top realtor year after year.

ZillowVERIFIED Craig helped guide us through the full scenario - list and sell our current home while also finding and purchasing a new one - and making it all work from a very difficult timing perspective. Craig was great to work with - very responsive and thorough while also showing strong knowledge and always sharing honest opinions. He ensured that several pending transactions all came together on the same closing day to ensure that there were not any delays for several different families - and its an understatement to say that there were several large roadblocks thrown our way as we approached that closing - but Craig made sure that none of them stopped or delayed the transactions. Id highly recommend Craig to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home, and plan to partner with him again in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED Ive had the pleasure of working with Craig for several real estate transactions and hes truly wonderful. He goes above and beyond for his clients, answers his phone when you call or if he cant answer immediately texts you, and actually calls you back (which is hard find these days). I can think of countless situations where weve needed him to help us with advice, solutions to issues, referrals, or has handled matters for us because we couldnt. I refer him to everyone I know looking to sell or buy! Craig is your guy!!! :)

ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I have been searching for a reasonably priced building lot. When we found what we were looking for, Craig was instrumental in guiding us through the buying process from beginning to end. His experience was invaluable throughout the entire process and his knowledge of the business allowed us to negotiate a fair price. We would recommend Craig for future real estate transactions.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I highly recommend Craig. As first time buyers, we were not 100% sure what we wanted and had a lot to learn. Craig was extremely patient will us as we looked at over 20 homes over 10 months. Craig has a lot of general building knowledge and always taught us new things during showings. Additionally, Craig has a lot of great connections in the area and made several helpful recommendations.

Review for Member: Craig Candage
ZillowVERIFIED Relatable, Hard Working, Smart, Candid, I could go on with words to describe Craig. Craig is unique. I havent worked with realtors before because we were first time buyers. What I liked about Craig is that he wasnt trying to sell us a house. Which is interesting from what you see on TV and hear from friends. I dont want to be sold a house because I wouldnt be talking to you if I didnt want a house. Craig has a unique approach I think. He sets us up with a query to find houses (some not even on zillow) and we cherry pick which ones we want to see. We go see the house and he helps us pick it apart. Im looking at a house because I thought I liked it. My approach is to find reasons not to buy it. We bounced from new houses to old houses to houses that were way overpriced to houses that needed a lot of work to houses that were a hundred years (we put an offer on this more about that) old to houses fairly far away from work (we put an offer on this too). The first house we looked at was in Saco. Beautifully redone cape cod style house. We put an offer in and went through the financing stuff. Inspection was great for a house that was a hundred years old. New roof, new addition added seamlessly. However, the appraiser though the house wasnt of quality like the others and valued the house 40k short. This was simply not true and the guy shouldnt be a damn appraiser as far as Im concerned. La vie, that house fell through and we were crushed. We loved the house and the location. We were beat so I asked Craig to just show us other houses because I wanted to get my mind off it. We saw three or four other house and just had a great day picking them apart because they were ridiculous. Craig comes with insight that is invaluable. He can tell us things about the heating systems that we wouldnt have known. He can tell us thing about roofs and attic that we wouldnt have know. All we are looking at really is cosmetic and he points the other stuff out. I can see the cosmetic but not the other stuff. Hes not trying to pull a fast one on you. Still pretty crushed I went to the Casino for the week. Came back and there was the most perfect house on the market that was priced to sell fast. Against my mortgage brokers wishes we went all in and put an offer that beat out 3 other offers. This house was on the market for 3 days and had 4 offers. It was a bit far away and even this house we picked apart. I hated the ceilings, the kitchen, the finishes were mismatched. Craig didnt try to sell it to me because I knew that it was all cosmetic. The bones were perfect and the pros of the house wayyyy outweighed the simple cosmetics. The house had a HUGE fenced in yard for our dogs, a hot tub, a built in garage, a solarium, and a crazy big master bedroom. We made our offer too good to turn down. Craig made sure the paperwork was proper because the sellers were working with a Relo company (apparently they are different). They accepted the offer, Inspections were clean and (drum roll) appraisal came in above our offer. The best part is. Sellers paid ALL the closing costs. Craig is a master negotiator in our favor. If you want something hell get it but dont be ridiculous. Craig is top notch and you would be stupid not to have him on your side because you sure the H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS dont want the other buyers to have him on theirs.

ZillowVERIFIED Grateful for Craig Candage who helped me sell my home in less than 2 weeks. The process began with Craig, getting to know me and the property. We went through the house and he identified items that I needed to complete to prepare my home for the sale. I appreciated his honesty and his willingness to listen to me, what I wanted and felt I needed when it came to listing the house. We established a trusting relationship which is critical when selling a house. He then brought in an amazing photographer who highlighted the best features of the home. He told the story of my home through various marketing outlets. Craig kept me informed at all times and welcomed my questions and explained whatever I did not understand. I was completely supported during the stressful process of selling a home. Craig was thoughtful about my dogs, knowing I had to make arrangements when showing the house. Craig understands the market, pricing a home, how to market a home and how to negotiate the contract. Truly thankful Craig Candage was my realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED We were pressed for time and Craig found our dream home and we were under contract within one week to buy our first home. He found us everything we wanted and needed in one house and didnt need to ask for anything more. Craig has sold us our home, our daughters house, and next will be our sons. If youre a Veteran/Disabled Veteran and looking to buy or sell a house Craig will go above and beyond for you and all your needs.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I contracted with Craig to sell our home of 34 years. The Farm as we lovingly referred to it, was a unique property to market. Craig listed it in numerous places in and out of state giving it lots of exposure. He went above and beyond several times to rectify things and get the property sold. He was always available when we had concerns or questions and quick to respond. (Even after hours and weekends) His professionalism, knowledge and personality made it easy to go through a difficult process. He will have a special place in our hearts forever.

ZillowVERIFIED Craig sold our house 5 days before it went on the Market. He has such a good relationship with other brokers that he knows what their clients want and this is how he sells houses so fast. after negotiations he got us our listing price, without having showings and open houses. His total knowledge of real estate was very impressive.

ZillowVERIFIED Craig was very patient with me as I spread my house search out over the course of an entire year, but never for an instant did I feel like I was being an inconvenience because of that. When I finally did find the home I knew I wanted, we had less than 45 minutes to get the bid in, and he didnt panic, didnt sweat, and used his knowledge of the market to steer me towards the proper range to consider. And sure enough, we just barely beat out four other bidders and without his direction, Im certain I wouldnt have hit that sweet spot and instead of moving into my home this weekend, Id be scouring MLS looking for a house still. Thanks, Craig!

ZillowVERIFIED I have been in the real estate business for 13 years now from flipping houses to owning a mortgage company I have seen it all. The last project I did with Craig was amazing. He found me a super deal in Gorham Maine so I purchased the property and brought back its charm and the very first day we put it back on the market we had 20 showings and two offers over asking price. We also closed the deal 30 days later. This can only happen when you are working with someone with a great knowledge of real estate, the current market and someone that has a huge network of people to get your home sold. I literally could not have asked for a better situation to unfold. Thanks Craig !!!!

ZillowVERIFIED Craig was a very knowledgeable and professional Realtor. Every question I had about each property we looked at or even the ones I drove by in advance of seeing and asked him about, he researched and got me answers very quickly. He is an expert in every aspect of house buying. He knew answers about systems in homes and if he did not, like with the particular water system in the home I ended up purchasing, he went or called the companies and got in depth information for me. He treated me with utmost respect, even when I changed my mind about different properties. He is upbeat and encouraging. He always responded quickly to every email or call I made to him. He even helped me when I had a question about my mortgage rate. He is actually the 6th Realtor I have used in my lifetime and he by far was the best and most professional. I would highly recommend Craig to anyone. Thank you, Ellene Smith

ZillowVERIFIED We had a wonderful experience with Craig - from setting up our first showings to finding the house we wanted to make an offer on, all the way through closing. Being first-time home-buyers, we asked a lot of questions throughout the process, and Craig took the time to explain everything to us in detail. He fought for us on the little negotiations that popped up from the house inspection, and saved us from any additional stress. We would highly recommend working with Craig.

Review for Member: Craig Candage
ZillowVERIFIED My wife and I worked with Craig on the purchase of our new home. A majority of the process, especially early on, was done from Virginia, and we started the process a bit earlier than we probably needed to. Craig was very patient and helpful during the early stages. He provided feedback and suggestions that ultimately helped steer our home searches, and provided collateral information on all the homes that we liked via the online search. He offered to visit homes, take photographs, and send them down to us to supplement the info pulled from the online search.When we finally moved into the area, he was very accommodating at all the showings, and provided his own additional insights on things we likely would not have considered. His knowledge of the real estate market, to include the strength of the market in the immediate neighborhoods where we were looking was a huge help in making our final decision. Were incredibly happy in our new home and were thrilled with Craigs level of service.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Craig was a dream! He made the process seamless, and kept us in the loop about each step in the process. He was readily available to answer any questions regardless of what time or day it was. He called and texted to make sure we met deadlines. He was a great advocate for us during the offer process. He was very knowledgable about the area, and quick to do research is we had a question he did not know the answer to. Overall, I have and would recommend Craig to any one looking for a new home. Because of his dilegence we have a beautiful new home, in the perfect location, and at a perfect price! Cant ask for much more than that!

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I recently purchased a home through Mr. Candage and would highly recommend him (and already have) to everyone. He was very professional, prompt, and willing to wheel and deal for us to get us the best deal possible. He even went above and beyond on many occasions to get the job done....a good example being the day before closing. We were told that we werent going to close due to the back deck being two inches too high and unsafe so he offered a compromise to the bank that he board up the door that accesses the deck. They agreed and he (while we were at work) went to home depot, got the wood, and drove up to the property to board up the door all without even being asked to. He just did it! So awesome! Hes a top notch broker and we look forward to using him again on our next property purchase! :)

ZillowVERIFIED Me and my wife came upon Craig by chance and we are super glad we ended up having Craig as our agent. He is super easy to work with and helped us along the long road to purchase our house. He took time to explain the whole home buying process and sent us daily listenings. We looked over the listenings and made comments and then he would go in and make his own comments. During our house visits he was very helpful in pointing things out to us and getting to know what we wanted. From our conversations and the comments we made on houses that we looked at he was able to provide more information to us and finally land our first home. I would highly recommend Craig to anyone buying a home and needs a good agent.
