    Sean McGovern is exactly the kind of realtor you hope to find, he's straightforward, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I was nervous because we were selling from out of state and had to rely on him completely, but he absolutely came through for us. He's no-nonsense in the best way. He's direct, honest, and focused on what really matters. His knowledge of the process and the local market gave us peace of mind, and he consistently looked out for our best interests. Communication was solid throughout, and we always felt like we were in good hands. lf you're looking for someone reliable who gets things done without any runaround, Sean is the realtor you want in your corner.

    Sean was very knowledgeable about our whole process of buying and selling our homes. He kept us informed as we were looking to buy a home and waiting for the house we wanted to be available. He also helped connect us to many great sources -inspectors, roofers, and contractors- for the variety of needs we had in buying our new house and selling our own. He even considered the type of financing we wanted to pursue and connected us to a loan officer who was able to get us the financing option we were looking for. Throughout the entire process of buying and selling, he was able to guide us in decisions and resources which made the process much easier for us.

    We had a fantastic experience working with Sean McGovern to sell our home. From the very beginning, he was professional, attentive, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to walk through our home with us before listing, offering thoughtful guidance on how to best prepare the property for a successful sale. What really stood out was how well he listened to our priorities and concerns. He was always available to answer questions, provided clear communication every step of the way, and we truly felt like he was representing our best interests as sellers. Thanks to his preparation and strategy, we received a strong offer within just 48 hours of putting our home on the market. His experience and negotiation skills played a key role in navigating the closing process smoothly and successfully. Were so grateful for his dedication and expertise, and we highly recommend Sean McGovern to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence.

    Sean was amazing to work with. Very communicative and answered all of our questions thoroughly. We sold our house within 2 days of listing it. Very happy we went with him to guide us on this process.

    Sean served as a dual agent for us. He did a great job keeping us up to date, making sure we were informed, and answering any questions we had throughout the process. He kept the process moving and pointed us to several contacts for different needs we had. We would definitely use Sean again in the future!
