I have nothing but praise for Rick, as he really did go over and above what would normally be expected from a real estate agent.I had the unfortunate task of selling my childhood home after my mom passed away, and had to do so from a distance as I reside in Texas and couldn’t spend weeks or months in Canada closing on the sale. Rick met with me on very short notice, walked me through all of the steps to get the house on the market, and was very helpful in guiding me on many worrisome tasks as we quickly prepared the home for sale. He helped with contents removal, ensured the driveway was cleared of snow, and checked in on the vacant property to avoid costly increases in house insurance. Rick’s knowledge of the market was invaluable in setting a list price that generated multiple offers. He was in regular contact by email or phone, detailing every offer and giving me lots of advice in making the decision on which offer to accept. All the way up to closing and even after the fact, Rick shepherded us through all of the necessary steps to complete the sale, keeping me and the new owners happy. Rick is trustworthy, honest, and professional. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t hesitate for an instant in choosing Rick as our agent. I am so grateful to have had such a dependable, caring person that I could trust to take care of the sale of my home.

Rick has always been there for us with more support than we would ever expect.In the past 40 years we have purchased, sold and leased many industrial, retail and residential properties across Canada often in the million dollar plus range, working with top realtors. We can say without fear of exaggeration that Rick Crouch has worked harder on our behalf than any other agent, to locate the right property or to sell for us, negotiating the best terms and price. We have recommended Rick to others because he gets the job done and brings the results that they were looking for. We will continue not only to use Rick, but will also recommend him to others.”

As an out of town purchaser I had to rely heavily on Rick's judgment and help when choosing an investment property.Rick was more than willing to give us the time and patience to educate us about the market and relative values.To maximize the use of my limited time Rick screened and lined up appointments carefully to ensure those selected met all my criteria. Then when it was time to sell I was thrilled with all the “extras” that were part of Rick’s normal client service. He was unbelievably helpful and definitely played a huge role in the successful execution of the sale.

We feel very fortunate that we chose Rick Crouch to help us find and purchase a house in the Collingwood/Blue Mountain area. We were referred to Rick and consider that a fortunate event. Working with us as our “Buyer Agent” Rick initially spent time with us to understand our needs and objectives. In addition, as we became more educated on the local market, with his guidance, our needs evolved and he was always responsive in this regard. Rick spent many months providing us with regular emails and discussion of listings for us to consider. Equally important, he invested both the time and patience in helping to educate us about the market and property values in the area. We spent many months viewing appropriate properties during which time he provided insights that allowed us to make an unpressured purchase decision for a property that best suited our family’s needs and reflected sound value as a real estate investment.

We first met Rick when we had him evaluate our property with a view to selling.He was very thorough and did a lot of up-front work to show us how our property compared to others in the area, and what value added features we had that we may not have considered. We felt confident that his recommendations regarding updating, staging and pricing were accurate and relevant.
