"Jenn did a great job both selling our current home and helping us with the purchase of our new home.
…
Read More Our current home actually sold before ever going on the market via her extended connections in the community. The house we purchased is on the water and she helped with processes beyond the purchase with regards to improvements and the connections to make those improvements. The process was extremely smooth and I think this had a lot to do with her having the right extended team from a great home inspector to a financial team. I highly recommend Jenn"

Fantastic communication, great advice and guidance at every step of the way...and this is her normal way of operating. Additionally, we needed some small items repaired prior to listing the house. She had multiple contractors who were very responsive to the work required and the timing to complete...and affordable. This signals a great working relationship with those contractors, again a terrific reflection on Jenn Bonk."

"Selling a property is no small feat, especially when you're over 1500 miles away. Enter David, our real estate agent, who transformed what could have been an impossible challenge into a great experience.
David wasn't just a realtor to us; he was our project manager, our eyes and ears, and most importantly, our peace of mind. When we needed appliances installed, repairs overseen, and an open hou… Read Morese held, David stepped up, ensuring every task was completed to perfection. He even stopped by the house regularly just to 'check on things' for us. His dedication meant that despite being miles away, we were never out of the loop—regular calls, texts, and emails kept us informed and involved every step of the way.
Emotionally, selling a house for the first time was a rollercoaster. Yet, David's no-nonsense, honest approach, coupled with his constant reassurance, made us feel secure. His ability to manage the project was unparalleled, truly making him an indispensable ally in anyone's corner.
Even when our first offer fell through—a moment that could easily have disheartened any seller—David's exceptional communication skills shone through. He kept us informed throughout every stage, ensuring we understood the process and remained hopeful for what was to come.
David's direct, honest communication was not just refreshing but reassuring. He told it like it was, always truthful, yet always with the reassurance that everything would turn out okay. And it did—beyond our expectations. In the end, David secured a sale price for our house that exceeded what we had hoped for.
To anyone facing the prospect of selling their home, especially from a distance, choosing David as your real estate agent means choosing success. His exceptional service, integrity, and dedication not only made our sale possible but made it a remarkable success. Thank you, David, not just for being an outstanding real estate agent, but for being the support and guide we desperately needed." Read Less

"David sold us our first home in 35 days. This second time around it took us only 30 days. Going with him again was an easy decision because he is less interested in a commission and more interested in helping you find the right place for the right price. He listened to what we wanted and worked with us to get it. He negotiated with the seller in a way that was not cut throat, but respectful and pr… Read Moreofessional in order to keep everyone satisfied. The confidence, advice, and wisdom that David brings to the table is enough to make a guy miss his dad. It feels like family when working with David, and we would recommend him in a heartbeat.
