Don helped to sell my home, all I had to do was say that I was ready and he took care of everything else.

Since this was my first time selling I had plenty questions ranging from cost to the process and timeline, which he always responded to quickly and provided pointed answers. He made sure I remained well informed. I have had nothing but positive experiences. He is friendly, courteous and prompt. I would recommend him, 100%.

Don was very professional, listened to our needs, and recommended right houses.

We are very pleased with his support and knowledge to make our dream home a reality.

Steve was knowledgeable about the market, a strong negotiator, patient, great communicator, and always available.

But what truly distinguishes him from other agents is that he cares. He made the experience of selling my home far less stressful, and I feel fortunate to have worked with him.

We have used Don to buy, sell, buy and sell again.

He has been so terrific, a straight shooter, and has always taken the best care of us. We have recommended him to many people and just about our entire family has used him at one point or another. We would recommend him ten times over!! Thank you Don!!

Don is a friend.

He was there for me to help me with the sale of my mom's house who passed away. I was new to everything involved with selling. I didn't know what to do or expect but Don was there with the answers to any of my questions. I liked his motto to be your friend first. And he surely was and is. I never felt like anything else. I am keeping his business card for anyone I know who wants to sell or buy a house. DON will be my first choice to call if I decide to buy or sell. I totally enjoyed working with him. Thanks to DON !

Don, Working with you was the best thing that could've happened for our family.

You always kept us updated on what was going on, always answered our calls or called us back when you were available, and we could see that you really cared about us and getting us into a home. We still can't thank you enough and we have nothing negative at all to say. If I ever know of anyone looking to buy or sell a home, you'll be the first to know.

Don Ritchie is a fantastic agent!

Before I flew in from another state to relocate for work, I gave him my wish list and he delivered in one day of viewing. He is patient and professional. Plus, he is efficient and made my home search smooth and difficult free from cradle to grave. Great job Don!!!

Joo Walker

This is the second home purchase we’ve made using Don as our realtor and it is clear why his clients stick with him.

Don is caring and down to earth while making sure everything is taken care of. We have recommended him to all of our friends in the area.

Kallie, July 2020

Don is an amazing realtor, friendly professional, caring, knowledgeable, responsive and very charismatic.

He listened to our needs and delivered! He was always prepared with all the data we needed in advance, facilitating a swift and informed decision in a volatile and quick market. We will recommend him!

Emma Rodriguez

I have always been hesitant about real estate agents as they play a major role in the success of selling your property in a timely, efficient, and effective manner while attempting to maximize the best financial outcome for you as a homeowner.

However, after meeting and working with Don Ritchie, he stands out as the best! He met with us and reviewed the selling process, and using data on comps from the surrounding neighbor, set a price on our house that was above our expectations. He had a professional photographer come in to our home who took amazing professional pictures that created a stellar media presence for us! When we saw our listing – our home was “picture perfect”!! Within 48 hours of our home being on the market, we had six showings, and an offer! We highly recommend Don to anyone who is looking for a real estate agent. He is a professional, extremely responsive, incredibly friendly, and easy to work with. His hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home is amazing!

Lyn, March 2020

My wife & I were first time home buyers and we could not have asked for a better agent than Don.

From the minute we started looking for a home to the very last signature, he was with us from beginning to end. He knew the answer to everyone of our questions and concerns. He truly had our best interest in mind. We started off with a real estate, but ended up with a friend. I would and certainly will recommend Don to anyone I know looking to buy or sell.

I've used Don multiple times when purchasing a new home, and each time, he's been fantastic.

His communications are great, and he's very transparent about everything. He's very personable, and time and time again, he goes out of his way to make sure he can accommodate your needs, to ensure a smooth and pleasant transaction. If I ever buy another house, he's my guy.

"This is the fourth transaction we have completed utilizing Don as our realtor. He has sold 2 houses for us and bought 2, and if we need any other housing transactions we will return to him. Don and his team make the entire house selling, house hunting and purchase process as painless and simple as I think it can be. They are knowledgeable and friendly and clearly convey they are there to do what is best for their clients!"
