Gordon was great. I work 70 hours a week and Gordon was willing to do what he had to with his schedule to make sure we were able to get everything done outside of my work hours. He responded quickly to my phone calls and emails and never got frustrated with all my first time home buyer type questions. I'm already looking into picking up a second property and you best believe Gordon will be my go-to-guy once again!

I was out of town and needed to work with a local Real Estate Agent to handle the selling of my mother's house. I knew the transaction would require much more service than a normal transaction of me being located in the area. I couldn't have asked for any better service than Gordon provided me in handling the transaction. He was very diligent in his communication with me all throughout the transaction, even when we ran into several issues on the buyer's mortgage side.... Gordon made sure our side had the appropriate documentation, kept communication lines open and kept on the mortgage company to ensure the transaction could close as soon as possible. Overall, I would highly recommend Gordon, especially if you are doing a transaction and live out of state. Less

Gordon handled a short sale for us, which is a notoriously miserable and lengthy process, but Gordon never lost his focus or his cool. He truly had our best interest at heart every step of the way, from the very first house he showed us to the house that we now proudly call our own.
I would highly recommend Gordon for any real estate need without hesitation!!

Searching for a home in 2012 felt like tip toeing in minefield with a blindfold. Diana and I were wary of dealing with the sellers and some agents. Our prayers were answered when we found Gordon Crawford, a buyers agent and a real straight shooter. Thank you, Gordon.
He analyzed our situation, wants and desires. Explained potential avenues to follow and then Gordon showed us two houses. T W O ! We had been looking for months on our own and his understanding, experience and knowledge of people and property found our dream home--in our price range--in ONE day. We're late in our second month living in our new home and love it. Diana says we are here forever, which is great.... except we know this great buyers agent....

Gordon was very helpful with the First Time Home Buyer process. He never made me feel like I was asking too many questions and when the appraisal came back lower than expected, he was able to negotiate the sellers down to the appraised price. He stuck with me through the whole process. I would HIGHLY recommend Gordon to anybody trying to buy a house and if and when the time comes for me to sell I will be using him for that also!

Gordon helped us buy a second house in Deltona. Honestly, you need to look no further for an agent. His knowledge of construction, neighborhoods, repair and renovation costs is stellar. Communication is just a text away and videos are sent via youtube. The contacts he uses for inspections and all other aspects are top notch. He in on your side 110% through each step of the process. Look no further, Gordon is the man.

Buying a home in Central Florida has been a dream I?ve had for many years. When I decided to pursue my dream of homeownership, I knew I had to find the right realtor. When I talked to Gordon, I immediately knew he is an excellent realtor. He?s extremely knowledgeable, patient and professional. What impressed me the most about Gordon is when showing homes to me; he would point out positive and negative features of the property and would suggest ways of handling the negative items. Any other realtor would simply show the home and not even notice items that may need maintenance. His expertise allowed me to know if a home was for me or if it would be something that would require a large amount of money invested to make it pristine.
Once I found that perfect castle, the home-buying process began. There?s a great deal of coordination among different parties during this process. I never realized how much hard work, coordination, negotiation and timing was involved with this step. Gordon kept on top of everything and kept me informed of the progress.
Thanks to Gordon, all the pieces came together perfectly and my dreams have come true!! Now I?m enjoying my little slice of Florida!! Linda Simpson Less

I was looking for the purchase of a Condo in Lake Mary. Gordon first asked me what things were important to me and I was immediately directed towards good potential options. Since I am abroad and was unable to visit the property, I needed to find a person I could trust.
Gordon has shown this qualitiy: professional, experienced, practical and patient. He literally lent me his eyes, he advised me and always responded promptly and patiently to all my many questions, put me in a position to make my own decision, consciously while he remained objective and independent.
He was able to earn my trust and my friendship, and these are things that are priceless. It's nice to know that there are still men like Gordon Crawford Less

Gordon did an excellent job in helping us find and purchase a home. He listened to us, did not pressure us, gave excellent advice every step of the way, was patient and always available.

Gordon was not only professional in helping us find the house we wanted, he went way out of his way to facilitate a seamless transaction at what we believe was the best possible price. He kept us very well informed every step of the way, and continued to stay in contact and offer his services even after the deal was complete.
We couldn't have asked for a better buyer's agent. We highly recommend Gordon.

I have purchased several homes through out my life time and I can honestly say Gordon was the best. He was on top of the sellers to make sure all required repairs and paperwork were completed before closing. He made sure I was informed with any changes or updates. I look forwarded to working with Gordon's group again in the future. Steve B.

Gordon was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and on how to spot a quality house among the myriad of houses there are on the market. He took all of our concerns and needs into careful consideration and helped the search process go very smooth. He answered all of our questions and was great to work with. I am very happy with the house we ended up closing on. I would highly recommend Gordon to anyone who is looking to buy a house! Thanks again Gordon!

We were doing online boarding passes to come back home to Kansas when we spotted a new listing. We called Gordon, overnight he got us in to see the new property before our boarding the next morning. As we drove home from the KCI airport, we called Gordon, made an offer on that house and have not been back to Florida since. Gordon handled everything for us long distance clear though closing. He oversaw the inspections, toured our daughter through the property, oversaw the installation of a new hot water heater and did the final walk through... the works!
Now that is service! Less

I found Gordon through the zillow website as i was attempting to familiarize myself with the housing market. Being a first time homebuyer I wanted to find an agent that could provide me with as much guidance as possible. During our search, Gordon always made time to see a home I was interested in and never pressured me into taking a home that didn't fit my needs. After Gordon deduced the type of home I was interested in his subsequent suggestions got a little closer to my ideal place. Once we found that perfect place, Gordon was instrumental in making sure I was in contact with the right people who helped me with financing and inspections in order to make my dream a reality. For a first time homebuyer here is my advice. First, become familiar with the housing market in in the area you are interested in buying. Second, ask yourself what is a fair price for this house and what if any repairs can i handle without a professional. Finally, find yourself an excellent agent. I can't help you with the first two but when it comes to finding an agent, Gordon Crawford is the gold standard. Less

As a new investor I was interested in buying rental property and Gordon showed me how I could set up a self-directed IRA to acquire investment real estate with tax deferred earnings. This was a new experience for me, and Gordon explained the entire process in a way that made me feel both comfortable and confident. He was there for me every step of the way, guiding me through the process of choosing the perfect home, negotiating for the best price and terms and he kept me informed throughout the transaction. His expertise and knowledge of the market are exceptional. I would recommend Gordon to anyone who is looking for a skilled, effective and very personable real estate professional. 5 stars across the board! Less

Gordon went above and beyond what we expected from a Agent. He got to know what we were looking for and steered us in that directions. He found us the perfect house at the perfect price. His knowledge of the area, home construction and overall expertise in the real estate profession were stellar. We did not find and agent, we made a friend who we 100% would recommend to anyone looking in the area. Gordon is the man and your wishes are what he fulfills.

Let me tell you how Agent Gordon Crawford went above & beyond helping us find our home. He quickly responded to my initial inquiry, asked all the right questions, listened intently so as to gather pertinent information and determine our needs and desires for this long distance relocation. He didn't waste any time! He met us promptly the day after our arrival in Florida, showed us a fine list of homes that met our needs. You could tell he was on a mission to find us just the right home. Clear concise directions & helpful advice made us feel comfortable and welcomed in a new area. We were greatly impressed with his knowledge of the market and with his people skills in understanding what we wanted in a home as well as our time constraints. His wise negotiation saved us big time too! Lightening fast closing! We recommend Gordon Crawford for excellent professional service with a personal touch! He really cares!

We started looking at homes on Zillow, Gordon was listed on one of the properties when we contacted him he promptly started looking for homes from what we wanted. After some emails and phone conversations, we flew to Florida and met Gordon in Sanford. He was a great help from start to finish which includes finding the home we wanted in two days, worked with us through purchase offer, and the closing. Could not ask for a better sales agent. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home.
