If you're not wealthy, this guy won't lift a finger to help you find a home on the North Fork. Lazy is an understatement. Plenty of good agents out there eager to help the common folk.

We have bought many homes over the years from California to New York. Now we are working with Tom McCarthy on the purchase of a home in Southold. I have never had the cooperation, concern for our needs and dedication to adding value to the process. It is easy to say that Tom is now a friend.
