Report
I couldn't recommend Hugh and Anita more highly when buying or selling a house. They were persistent (worked with us for 1+ year, 2 houses in escrow), professional (highly knowledgable about real estate nuances / contracts), and a pleasure to work with (made sure we felt good about purchase). On top of all of this, you will save a lot of money with the 1+% cash back. My wife and I were looking for a house for roughly 1 year, and Hugh and Anita were always patient and responded quickly to all of our requests for tours. When we finally found a house and had an accepted offer, another house popped

I am so GRATEFUL and I can't say thank you enough to 1% Brokers, Realtors. They are the best and I really really recommend them. Hugh (my father figure) and Anita worked around the clock and on weekends tirelessly to make me a homeowner. Marine tirelessly accompanied me on home visits and she was always on time. At my early age of 26 years with limited finances, and knowledge about buying a home they gave me parental love, support, guidance and professionally doing everything possible to make my home buying process really smooth, and I am now a HOMEOWNER in this tough market.

My husband and I started out with very little knowledge about the home buying process. Anita and Hugh were there for us every step of the way which made us more informed and confident as buyers. They both have the experience, expertise, and professionalism that served us well in procuring our dream home. There were some hiccups along the way but it was handled perfectly. They went beyond their roles as brokers and we look to them as friends whom we can trust. With the pandemic and the competitive housing market, it is an amazing feat that we were able to acquire the home that we really wanted.

1% Broker is absolutely the best. Hugh and his team are extremely thorough, deeply informed and leave no stone unturned to ensure a successful outcome of your real estate transaction. My recent property purchase would have failed without the support and advice provided by Hugh. We were under tight timelines and had several parties who needed support and constant communication to keep the deal moving. Without Hugh, I would not own the property I own today. Moving forward, I refuse to work with anyone else! Hugh is simply the best.
