Christine was very professional and very helpful to us through the entire process. It is very difficult for a young single mother to deal with something like this and Christine helped Shelly in wonderful fashion through all the various issues that occurred.
The house is absolutely "perfect" for Shelly and Alyssa and we are all so grateful that we were able to work everything out to everyone's satisfaction. Thank you.
Sincerely,
BRUCE ROTTE

"George and Christine handled the sale of our home in Newport in a professional manner and in several situations went above and beyond. We were absentee sellers so in addition to handling the sale of the home, they made sure the home was always in condition to be shown and helped us with keeping it clean and presentable."
George and Christine's knowledge of the alternative financing tools available in this tough economic market was essential in getting the sale completed. They were able to navigate through the required documents and successfully assisted the buyer in obtaining financing.
The handling of the closing was superb. Minimal effort was required from us, and we did not have to travel to Newport for the closing, thus saving us time and travel expenses. Overall the sale of our home was handled professionally in a very difficult economic time. We highly recommend them anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

"I recently worked with George Verkamp on the purchase of our new office building in the Hyde Park area. George was nothing but a pleasure to deal with and I found him to be extremely professional. As buyers we had our choice of who to engage and we chose Mr. Verkamp because of his excellent reputation. We were not disappointed especially given his attention to detail and his personal touch. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a full service real estate agent."

"I had a great experience working with George Verkamp. He was kind, compassionate, timely, and very experienced. He went out of his way several times to personally meet me at the condo and work through items that we had. He sincerely cared about what I needed from my side, and was quick to tackle obstacles. I highly recommend working with George."

"Working with Christine to sell our home and purchase a new one was a real pleasure. We wanted an agent with experience and enthusiasm, for sure, but we also wanted one who's a straight-shooter, one who "calls 'em as she sees 'em." Christine was all that and more. She’s a great agent and wonderful person, to boot. We recommend her highly."
