Gary was fantastic to work with. We could always count on him to answer our calls and texts when we had questions. He also went above and beyond when we were out of town and couldn't easily get to the house we were selling. Highly recommend using him for your real estate needs!

Gary and his team helped us throughout the process from our first house walk through to the final closing paperwork. He was very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and current market trends. This helped us narrow our searches and find the right home in the right place for the right price. I would suggest Grey Duck Properties for your next home purchase.

Kristina was absolutely amazing to work with! From the moment we connected, she was incredibly quick to respond and always made time for me and my wife. Her knowledge of the market and the homebuying process gave us a lot of confidence, and she helped us find our new home within just a couple weeks of working together. What stood out the most was how she made us feel like a top priority every step of the way and we never felt rushed or overlooked. If you're looking for someone whos professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to helping you find the right place, we highly recommend Kristina!

I had the best experience with Joe selling my home this year!!! Not only was he fun to work with but he was super knowledgable & helpful through out the whole process. He answered all of my questions and guided me to make the best decisions. He helped make sure my house was ready to sell with a quick to do list before listing, assisted with resources getting the house staged and made the paperwork process very smooth. I am very happy with the outcome of my sale & could not recommend him enough! Thank you!!! (:
