Working with Steve was fantastic, he went above the call of duty, my condo sold for more than I expected and it was because of the work Steve did. I would highly recommend him.

I was very nervous and worried about selling my condo; the whole process worried me. Steve was excellent about working with that, explaining every small issue I asked about, answering all my silly questions, calming my fears and making me very very safe and relaxed.

Steve went to the condo and even though cleaners had been through already, he did extra cleaning, fixed a few broken knobs and other little maintenance issues. This was not expected by me and probably something another agent would have paid (then charged me) to have a handy man do. Steve did this to make my place more prepared to sell.

I also had some ongoing insurance claim issues on the condo. Steve made many calls to the insurance people, the condo manager, and the contractor. This really helped in getting everyone to share the estimates and claim information and helped me to get the claim settled and paid. I was located far away and this type of calling and working with all the different people was stressful and difficult; so much so that I was about to give up. I am positive that his calls hurried the claim along and I might not have it without his help. This is another example of Steve going above and beyond. He was selling my condo and this was an issue that happened months before. He did not need to make all the calls, but I am glad he did.

Finally, the condo sold quickly at a price above what I was expecting. This is due to Steve's knowledge of the market and how to maximize the sale price. I would highly recommend Steve for anyone selling their property. He is easy and great to work with. He goes beyond expectation and works to get the most out of the property. Highly...

After ten house transactions, we were unenthusiastic about using a realtor... until we found Steve Wade. The housing market prior to 2024 was a seller's market and required very little effort on the part of any realtor to make a sale. Seven percent mortgage rates ended that laissez-faire marketing strategy. We searched for a realtor who would actively market our property and found Steve, who did exactly that. He worked like a mad man, advertising in every conceivable manner, staging the house, beautifying the outside, cheerfully putting sweat equity into all his preparations. And then he personally held all the open houses. Amazing! We are very enthusiastic about Steve and believe that he is the best realtor we have ever worked with and we look forward to working...

In August 2024 we were searching for an innovative real estate professional to creatively market and sell our home. It had been on the market for several months and had generated no interest. I saw a social media post by Steve Wade and immediately contacted him. We began a conversation about marketing our home--and we asked him to develop a comprehensive program that went deeper than simply listing it on the MLS and holding an open house or two. Steve poured his heart and soul into showcasing our home. He struck deals to stage the house, worked to improve the curb appeal and continuously developed marketing strategies to bring potential buyers to our home. He is a problem solver, a dedicated professional...
