Wow, talk about amazing, this team is incredible! David & Simone are so friendly and knowledgeable and take the time to make sure you understand every step of the buying and selling process. I had questions that were immediately answered. We put in an offer to the house we fell in love with and found out that there were multiple offers. Simone and David fought for our offer and made the deal happen. Exceptional service and would recommend them to anyone and everyone that is in need of services. Thank you again Simone and David for making this process so smooth and easy!!

This dynamic duo is the real deal, we have used them for several transactions and they have been fabulous. One particular time it took us time to find “the one” and they were incredibly patient as we toured home after home. They always make the process easy and fun as they are just wonderful people. They’ve become two of our favorite people to do business and life with.

My wife and I bought a home in League City, David and Simone were our realtors recommended by friends, and boy did they live up to the hype! David and Simone worked with my wife and I for months looking at a lot of houses, and they did not give up on us. Once our offer was accepted on the house we bought they were fast, very professional, and quick to respond to the many questions that we had. They are just kind, very responsive, sharp, humble, and all-around awesome people to work with. Anybody that asks us for advice about what realtor to use will get a recommendation to go with David and Simone from us!
