What do Clients Say?

Shawn and his team went above and beyond our expectations during the sale of our house. He consistently reassured us on all of our questions and concerns. He took great pictures of our house and sold it for more than what we thought possible in a relatively short time span. We definitely recommend him  and his Dream team!!

Buying my first home was extremely stressful for me. Shawn and his team were right there every step of the way. They made sure I had all the information I needed to make buying my home an awesome experience. Shawn and his team went the extra mile to make sure my nerves where calm through every little hiccup. He made himself available for every question I had and was one of the first people there at closing. Great job Shawn, thank you!!

Shawn walked us through the home and pointed out everything possible to be seen. We were very open with what we were looking for and Shawn made it happen. We love our new home. He walked us through the entire process from start to finish. If you are looking for the whole package with a realtor, Shawn is it!!

Shawn and his team made a difficult process incredibly easy. I had to manage a handful of things out of state which made it hard with coordinating contractors, but Shawn took all of this on, reducing a great amount of stress. There were even some fixes I planned to do myself but didn't get around to and he took the time to do these himself with the help of his team. Definitely would recommend.

Shawn worked diligently to sell a small piece of property on behalf of my mother. I was amazed that he managed to find just the right buyer, a perfect match. Shawn impressed me from the start with his knowledge and he gives so generously of his time to ensure you understand the entire process. He truly works for your best interests. I highly recommend Shawn and Dream Real Estate.
