What set’s Aaron apart:
The Art of Rapport
“Aaron has the ability to build instant trust and credibility with people in all areas of life, and that gift has proved to be a critical strength in his real estate practice.” – DJ Grubb

When presenting an offer, negotiating an outcome, working with service providers or resolving a crisis, the ability to instantly build rapport leads to a greater outcome for all parties involved. Aaron’s success is largely based on referrals, and the business generated from positive word-of-mouth is a testament to the trust and integrity he represents—and his ability to deliver beyond expectations.

Technical Skills
Aaron embraces technology. He started with computers at age 5 and constantly educates himself on the latest tools and products available via the Internet and local resources. His clients enjoy all the benefits that go with having a real estate professional on the leading edge of technology. Buyers and Sellers alike also receive an advantage over those lacking the same resources. Aaron leverages Web 2.0 and computer advancements to deliver a highly refined product—one that sets the tone for a seamless transaction and highly successful results.

Dedication
Whether searching for a home, negotiating an offer or reviewing final documents at signing, Aaron’s clients are in the forefront of his mind. That dedication and ethic are ingrained in him from his background in hospitality, also making service of the utmost importance. In the end, every decision Aaron makes is based on a single criteria: “Is this in the best interest of my client?”

“…guided by a Realtor who cares…”

“I know I speak for both Shawn and me when I say thank you so much for putting in the time late last night to make sure that we understood the entirety of the documents and felt

comfortable with the decision we were making. At least we know that however our offer is received by the sellers, we are guided by a Realtor who cares about us, even though he has known us for just few days.”

“…you made it happen…”

“This has been a long hard road for both of us. Words cannot express how much I appreciate everything you have done to get my home sold. We didn’t always agree, but you made it happen. You are a intelligent young man who will succeed in everything you do. I will always consider you as a special friend.”

- Elizabeth Stuecker

(Seller | a challenged home, sold with three offers)

“… we were lucky to have Aaron…”

“We were very lucky to have Aaron represent us in the purchase of our first home. He always accommodated our schedule to show us property, and even did so once at 8:00am on Easter Sunday. When, after eight months and multiple offers, we finally found the right house Aaron got us a great deal. During escrow he guided us toward the strictest inspectors, knowing full well that their detailed findings may cause the deal to fall through. He did this completely for our protection. Then based on the results of these inspections, Aaron negotiated an incredible concession. From start to finish Aaron was always there to answer questions and resolve the problems – we were lucky to have such a dedicated representative.”
