September 2011 Anne worked with us to buy our house and then sell it several years later. We returned to her to sell the house because she is so reliable and conscientious. She knows the market and she really tuned in to our needs and wants. In this stressful process, it was great to have Anne on our team. Mary and Susan September 2011 Mr. Gable: Let me tell you about Anne Craggs Crawford. She is the realtor, from your firm, who recently negotiated the sale of our townhouse in Cypress Cove, Half Moon Bay. We had the great fortune to have her as our representative. Her friendly and knowledgeable approach endeared us to her immediately. She offered her premises for the storage of some of our goods. She was always available to offer assistance and advice on staging, updating required appliances (smoke alarms, CO2 detectors) and cared for the premises and plants in our absence. Her knowledge of the "rocks and shoals" of difficult negotiations saved us considerable time and assets. Now I have some advice for you ..... Don't let that girl get away from you!! Ted and Shirley 2011 Hi Anne: Thank you so much for all your wonderful help in making sure Half Moon Bay became my new home! It was great working with you and I will look forward to seeing you around town. C..... 2011 Hi Anne: We appreciate your help so much. This was emotionally hard for all of us to sell Mom's house. You were so very kind and helpful to all of us. I would recommend you very highly for anyone who is looking for a realtor. Thank you is just not enough to say to you. We appreciate you beyond measure. F..... 2011 Dear Anne: Thank you for helping me find my wonderful house. You clearly have exceptional knowledge of the area. Your professionalism and positive attitude were invaluable. A..... 2010 Anne: Jim and I want to thank you for all that you did for us in helping us find and purchase our new home. You were able to hear our vague and sometimes shifting requirements and solidify them into a real home. As we worked with you we became very respectful of your knowledge of the area, its properties, and their value. We expected and appreciated your ability to walk us through the paperwork to purchase our home. What we didn't expect was how great you were after the sale was complete. You were still there, helping us find the best contractors, getting estimates and getting the jobs completed in a timely manner. We also appreciated how well you worked with and are respected by your fellow realtors. Any time we wandered into an open house, the realtor who had the house was always happy to find out that if we already had a realtor it was you, some one they knew they could work with. Thank you again for your excellent, professional, dedicated work which went into finding us our home. Fran and Jim. Anne: Congratulations to all of us!! We have come through this condo selling well, we think, and thank you so much for all your hard work. From the beginning we have felt secure in your capable hands and there aren't enough words to say how important that has been to us in all we've been through, besides the real estate. Thanks again. Cheryl and Larry October 2009 Anne: This economy does not match my disposition and, as you know, I was very nervous throughout the process of getting the home ready for sale, accepting an offer, waiting through escrow, and moving. I wasn't very good about hiding these emotions, but always, after every meeting with you, I felt comfortable and confident with your support and recommendations. I was impressed with your willingness to listen and adjust your suggestions about selling my home to fit my preferences. Advice toward pricing, prepping and staging my home were spot on. Never did you show concern or worry about when to put the house on the market, what to disclose, and the thousand other details needing attention. Always calls and emails were answered within the day. As I said, the economy is not for the timid. There are stories out there of home sellers contending with nightmare scenarios. I suppose the fact that the sale of my home went picture perfect, with an offer on my house made in a week and escrow closing four weeks later, demonstrates better than any praise offered of your expertise and professionalism as well as your skilled touch to help both buyers and sellers survive the purchase of a new home. Thank you so much, David Grady January 2009 Dear Anne: We want to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for all that you did to sell our home. Your dedication, professionalism, tenacity and extensive knowledge of the San Mateo Coast and, specifically, Ocean Colony Golf Links, resulted in our getting a decent offer in a terrible market in just over a month's time. There is not a day that goes by that we don't thank our lucky stars for having selected you as our realtor. Without you we would not have been able to move and retire! You were always there for us, always available and your follow up through the entire listing and closing process was outstanding. Thank you Anne Crawford for all that you have done! Sincerely, Gary and Shari Bielanski Click on the link below for testimonial from Bruce W. http://www.judysbook.com/servicelisting.aspx?roId=236009 Dear Anne: We were so proud to see your face on the cover of a magazine as Realtor of the Month. As our Realtor and friend, we would nominate you as Realtor of the year, decade and century! We think you are that good!! I decided to take this long overdue opportunity to thank you for all you have done for us. You helped us find our first home. You also helped us sell that house and then buy our current and last home! You listened to our detailed list of home and neighborhood requirements, and never once did you throw up your arms and say "I quit!! These are crazy people and there is no way I want them living in my community!" Instead, you made us feel important, appreciated and you took grat care of us. We called you often and we always felt like we were your first priority. After we found our perfect home, you took care of all the details to make the sale go as smoothly as possible. You are a perfect realtor and we feel so fortunate that we have you on our side! In addition to, and more importantly than the smooth selling and buying of homes, we feel we have gained a truly wonderful friend. We are so happy to share a community with you and I love it when we run into each other at the grocery store. You continue to make me feel special and I have, and will continue, to recommend you to our friends. You are the best and congratulations again on being nominated Realtor of the Month. Take care and I look forward to running into you soon. Ruthann Wolk Dear Anne: Thank you so much for all your help selling my house at 29 Pinehurst Lane and finding us our beautiful home in El Granada. We have been extremely satisfied with the support you provided. We were very impressed with your level of service, expert knowledge and attention to detail. We really appreciated your sound advice, your extreme professionalism and, above all, your patience in helping us get through this complicated transaction. Also, you have a great sense of humor. We really enjoyed working with you! Sincerely yours,
Dear Anne:
Thank you so much for all your help in. We are thankful to have such a caring, vigilant (& talented) realtor. Hope your holiday is filled with the riches of family, friendship & good health. All the best. Love, Dear Anne: Well it´s only taken a little over a year to thank you for all your help and patience. We couldn´t be happier with the house and its location. You seemed to know almost exactly what we wanted. This house is just about the way we would have built one if we were going to. Once again, thank you. Also thanks to all the people you work with who were so nice to us and the kids. Bill & Joan Thank you for all the patience and hard work. It is a pleasure working with you.
Josy & Alex Dear Anne:
I wanted to personally thank you for your help in finding us a house. I think I´ll be very happy on Filbert St. I know it´s your job but you bring such a lovely combination of personal integrity and professionalism to it. There are few people I trust implicity and you are one of them. I´ll always call on you for my real estate needs and I´ll always refer people to you. I think you´re the greatest! Sincerely, Dear Mr. Moreno, President - Dear Mr. Moreno: I recently sent in the survey card to your National Statistical Reasearch Center with this note as my additional comments. I am taking the time to write a note with additional comments to you because of the high praise and exceptional regard we have for your agent, Anne Crawford in the Half Moon Bay office. I am pleased to report that Ms. Crawford worked with us most patiently and professionally in completing this transaction. Initially she helped us to clarify our needs. Then, with professional efficiency showed us only properties that were in our price range and which closely met our requirements. Ms. Crawford represented us exceptionally well and handled the subsequent negotiations with such skill and competence that a contract sale was in place in a matter of days. The myriad of paperwork, inspections, contract details, etc. were handled so very well that we were able to close the sale of the acquisition property within three weeks of acceptance of the offer. Ms. Crawford was tireless in assisting us with the follow-up of the many details involved with compliance of sales contract terms and conditions. You should be so very proud to have a competent agent such as Ms. Crawford in your employ. She has greatly enhanced our already high regard for real estate services provided by your company. We are grateful for the exceptional service provided and sincerely appreciate the professional manner in which all these transactions were accomplished. Very truly yours, Mr. Brian McOmber
Dear Mr. McOmber, On December 30th I closed escrow on my home in Ocean Colony . During my six years of living in Half Moon Bay I had the pleasure of working with Anne Crawford on the transaction of two homes. Both transactions were seamless and handled flawlessly (literally). I have been a sales executive most of my career life and I can tell you that I have never worked with a better sales person than Anne Crawford. She is better than me! Anne is patient, knowledgeable, honest, detail oriented, she listens, she offers advice and most of all she cares. It would be my pleasure to speak with any potential clients considering using Anne Crawford of Alain Pinel HMB. Thank you for making my sale easy. Sincerely, We have found Anne Craggs-Crawford to be a consumate professional with a thorough knowledge of the coastside and the communities here. She is an honest and candid real estate broker who treats her customers fairly and intelligently, working with them to meet all of their needs; before, during and after the sale. Anne's involvement with her customers does not end with a sale, since she remains in contact and available. Anne is simply the one to contact if you're looking for a home on the coast.
Mike and Kathy Dear Anne: Thank you again for another successful transaction completed! You are by far the most thorough and professional real estate agent I have had the pleasure to work with both in our mutual clients´ real estate transactions as well as our personal home sale. You were always top on my list should my husband and I need any real estate advice and help of our own and you certainly reinforced our decision to work with you through your excellent communication and follow through; let alone your "listening ear" on the sale of our home. Referrals of clients to you will be made with confidence by us! You are the best! Best Regards, Dear Anne: Let us start by apologizing for being so late with this letter. With the move to Texas and new baby, time has just slipped away. We frequently think of you and wonder how you are doing and appreciate all the hard work you did for us. We loved living in El Granada and finding such a large home for less money than we were expecting to pay was largely thanks to your effort. Turning around 15 months later and having to sell was the last thing Andy and I were looking forward to doing. You listed our house, arranged the virtual tour and organized fliers promptly. Considering our schedule with a new baby and a 4 year old was commendable. You handled all matters in a businesslike fashion and we could be at ease knowing things were taken care of efficiently. Skillfully responding to every question, concern and need is a quality that is truly hard to find in an agent. All of these actions resulted in the quick sale of our home. We missed your expertise when finding a home is Texas. We would highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the area. Thank you, Anne, and best wishes. Sincerely, |
