“This was our 8th home — we've moved a lot — and this was by far the easiest home-buying experience we've ever had. Israel was patient and helpful. He gave us great insight into the market and the way it was trending. He told us we were likely to find something towards the end of 2022 since the market was cooling off. And sure enough we found a great home in late December.”
