I have worked with a handful of realtors in the past. Often I have found them to be impatient and a little too keen to praise whatever house we were looking at. Moreover, they've tended to be more responsive when it mattered to them, less responsive when something potentially unpleasant mattered to me. It wasn't really a pleasant experience, but then I was looking to make investments, so it was business.Buying a home is a more delicate thing. When I needed to find a new realtor in a new town, I dreaded the calls I needed to make. I poked around online at length, looking for profiles of realtors that did not sound pompous. Dan Stone's was one of them: no big words, no grandiose promises. A varied background. A guy who likes to float the river with his daughter on the weekend.It is rare that what you see is what you get. Dan is patient. He knows how to listen. He takes his time. He does not mind a setback. Let me explain: the first suggestion Dan made fit my initial parameters. I was looking for a duplex and Dan found one of the few on the market. I made a bid - site unseen. It was accepted. I flew into town. The duplex was nice. But I wasn't too keen on the neighborhood. Not that it was bad, I just wanted a little more character and a more central location. More importantly, the seller was being difficult first, then deceitful. My wife and I were no longer convinced. There were a couple of listings I had found. Dan knew about them, but was lukewarm in his quiet way. Once we visited, I agreed with him. Suddenly I only had a couple of days left. The next morning I meet Dan, who gives me the latest seller nonsense, then tells me to hop in his truck. Now. "I want to show you something." I haven't finished my coffee yet. Doesn't matter. Time is of the essence. Dan, usually calm, is quite excited. A charming house in an excellent location had just come on the market. It won't last long, Dan warns.We made a bid that day. We got it, besting a couple of bids that came in the next day. We bought it. We love it. In the few hours we'd spent together, Dan had figured out what we were looking for, because he listened. He knows the market well, because he's a nerd, who loves driving around pointing out little details of the houses he passes. I should add here that Dan spent many years working as a contractor. He'll tell you how much work an older house will need. He'll tell you if he doesn't like a floor plan, or if he thinks the workmanship on some new construction is a little shoddy. In the end, Dan found us a second place - again, he understood what we were looking for. But that is another story, lest you think this is a paid ad.It's been a while since we closed. I've had to do all sorts of work on the house. New to town, I've had all sorts of questions. Dan was always happy to help. When in the neighborhood, he'd stop by to see how I was doing. We've had a beer now and then. I expect well be having more. And that does not happen every day.
