"I was fortunate enough to have Chris "assigned" to me by Zillow and I'm insanely happy it happened. He is very friendly and you don't get the vibe that he's trying to get you to purchase something that doesn't fit your lifestyle. He's a true Philadelphian and has a great outlook and insight int..."

- Erin | Buyer
"Chris honestly felt like a God send after dealing with several real estate agents who's experience was not a pleasant one. Not because they weren't good people, but rather, because they lacked the experience, knowledge and skillsets that we desired.
My business partner equally as frustrated hopp..."

"Chris helped us list our house… twice!
