Still LOVE my home – thank you!!

Thanks Jim. I was prepared for a miserable experience. You took the worry and tension out of selling.

John Walsh Seattle, Washington

We had the best experience during the purchase of our first home with Jim. We love it. One of my best friends is a Realtor and I have already told her that when I move, Jim Hurley is the one I work with.

It was our first home and we spend several months looking. Jim never lost patience. He spent hours educating us and helping us through the process. He’s always smiling and positive…. Linda and Steve Green St. Peters, Missouri

I wasn’t really considering buying a new home but one I had looked at before we bought the last one, which I loved, came on the market. I called Jim and we moved 45 days later with no problems. He really cares about the people involved in the process.
