My wife and I met Bill Smith in the fall of ’07. We had been wintering in Arizona for several years, staying with my Mother in Chandler.
We had lived in Northern Michigan for 10 years and the winters were getting longer and longer. We
had a cute log home on a private lake and had been trying to sell it since ’04. With the market next to
non existent we had almost given up on getting it sold.
Diana, my wife, forever the optimist still insisted on looking for perspective homes each winter.
We looked on the Internet and found several houses that looked liked good candidates and one
Of them had Bill’s name as the sales person.
Upon further checking we realized that he was just a few blocks away.
We liked him as soon as we met and soon got to be good friends.
He showed us many houses in the Chandler area and we soon realized that we were in
an area where the prices were above our means.
Bill suggested that we look in the Queen Creek area and found us many houses that
could have been just what we were looking for but unfortunately our house back in Mi.
Remained unsold.
Upon our return to Mi. Bill called for an update and I told him sadly that the market
seemed to be worse that ever. I told him we would let him know if anything changed, but for the
time being we were just very discouraged.
When we returned to AZ the following fall, Diana began looking again this time south of Tucson
near a small town that was close to her sister and we fell in love with a house in a new subdivision
very close to her sister and we made an offer based on selling our house in Mi.
After a short time that offer expired and our house was still unsold
.
In Dec. my Mother offered to help with the purchase of a home and letting us live in it
until our house sold and then we could buy it from her.
Again, we began looking, this time in Casa Grande. We found several we liked and were
ready to have Mom take a look at them.
Remembering Bill and all the effort he had given us the year before we decided that we wanted to
contact him to be our agent.
He spent many days with us looking at the houses that we were interested in and showing us many
comparable homes in the area. We finally narrowed it down to 2 or 3 and began looking at all the
pros and cons and with a great deal of help from Bill we settled on a model home that was
move in ready. We were able to get the deal done and move in Jan. of 08. We stayed until the
end of April and returned to Mi. for the summer.
By Sept. we accepted an offer on our house. We came back to AZ with all our belongings
and became permanent residents of AZ.
We have remained good friends with Bill and we get together with him frequently. We appreciate all
the time and effort he gave us even when it looked like all hope was gone.

RE: Bill Smith
I was referred to Bill as my Buyer’s Agent to help me make an offer on a property in Arizona. Although, we did not get the acceptance, we continued to see several properties the following week. Since I’m from California, my timeline was limited and needed to view several properties whereby enabling me to bid by the end time. Bill rescheduled and even moved out or up on his scheduled appointments or duties to make the necessary time allotted to assist me with my request with my timeline. Because of Bill’s knowledge of the area and what is considered better or not so good was shared to help me make the right decision as a buyer. His experience and knowledge is in my opinion served exemplary as to his service, integrity, and all knowing pertaining to real estate transactions such as utilization of internet listings as well as pdf documents that can be electronically signed and would meet or beat deadline dates since living out of town. Bill has also followed up to continue to provide me required information I needed to assist with added disclosures information and or documents to make a successful transaction more complete. Having a person such as Bill is like having your own personal coach and expert to represent me as a “professional”. It is in my opinion that Bill is my gateway for real estate deals to successfully acquire, as my agent for representation.

Dear Bill,
I would like to thank you so much for the outstanding job you did selling my father’s house. I was so impressed how you always conducted yourself in a professional manner even though there were certain circumstances that at times made professionalism difficult to maintain. You also proved to me your ability to handle very difficult situations which most times included very difficult people.
You were able to sell the house after three other realtors tried to do so and were unsuccessful for three years. Your constant attention and many open houses were key for the sale which no one before you had done. It was amazing at the amount of exposure our house got after you became the realtor. Because of that, I am grateful and relieved that I finally found a realtor who took charge and did exactly what you had promised to do, which is so rare these days.
I would be happy to recommend you to my friends and family if they ever need to sell any property. Of course if I ever have another property to sell you will be my first phone call. Thanks again for all of your help and hard work.
Sincerely,
Audree S. Mikeska
To whom it may Concern:
I am writing this letter to express my great appreciation and gratitude to Bill Smith, a professional realtor. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent to guide me in finding my first home purchase. Bill made things as easy as possible for myself. He was very responsive and willing to go out of his way to make home searching as smooth as possible. He worked each and everyday to make sure that I was getting what I needed. Bill was very informative about the whole home searching and had answers to all my questions and then some. He made my first home purchase very enjoyable and made me feel very comfortable in which I feel I have made a new friend as well as a great realtor.
I would definitely recommend him to others as well as my family and friends.
I cant thank you enough Bill; you have been nothing but wonderful and grateful in this whole process. Your witty and upbeat attitude made this whole house searching more fun then stressful. You have been great to have as my realtor and I will definitely use your services in the future.
Very Much Appreciated,
Melinda Rau
