Tom Ogden, Tommy Boy Homes

I can’t say enough good things about Tom. He helped us buy our first home in 2018 and then helped us sell that house and move into our dream home in 2021. We were buying in at entry level pricing the first time and though we were very likely his lowest home value clients, he always made us feel like a priority. We still received the same treatment and attention the second go around in a much higher budget. The traits I love about Tom are:

1. He is always responsive. He usually would acknowledge my texts within 30 minutes, and always responded fully by that evening. If it was to look at a house, he usually got us there within a couple of hours.
2. He is incredibly knowledgeable without being pushy. He listed our house at just the right price, we had non-stop showings for two days and received 5 offers to choose from. When looking for a house he had a great eye for things to consider and was always spot on for what he thought the house was going to sell for. He was never pushy about his observations or opinions and never told us what he thought we should do unless we asked. He always presents his opinions with specific reasons why, and we never felt pressured any one way.
3. His work ethic is phenomenal. He either has vendors on hand for various house repairs, or he would find them for us. I always know I can trust anyone he refers to do a good job. I have never had to ask anything from him twice, sometimes I never even had to ask at all, he is always on top of it.
4. He is honest and considerate. Even from the beginning Tom felt like a friend with our best interests at heart. He always pointed out things he knew were important to us, and never pushed us to settle into something he knew we would not be happy in. He is very personable and gets along great with everyone. I felt like that went a long way in getting information from realtors and especially in negotiating. We never felt like any party was every being cheated and everything felt very fair.

If you’re looking for a realtor to buy or sell, Tom is your guy. We’ve had such wonderful experiences with him and he will always be my first choice in realty.

Tom was an incredible guide and knowledgeable resource as my wife and I went through the process of purchasing our first home together. He was very patient and kind in answering all of our questions and helped us make confident decisions along the way. He went above and beyond in the negotiations with the seller, advising us in ways we could save money while making a fair offer, as well as reaching out to local contractors to get information in support of our offer. Even after closing, he still continues to help us. Tom also connected us with a home inspector and mortgage lender whom we were also very happy with. He is a great communicator, friendly advocate, and connected to a strong network that any potential homeowner would be lucky to work with.
