"Wayne helped us purchase our first home. Wayne was very helpful and knowledgeable guiding us through the process. He was always there every step of the way. This is our first home, but I would surprised if other real estate agents are as caring and helpful as Wayne. He even rented a U-Haul truck and physically helped us move! I hightly recommend Wayne. We will definitely use him again someday, and refer him to our friends!"
