LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

We highly recommend Bob Hummer to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Bob is a “Rock Star;” highly effective, reliable, and a master at real estate technology. There is nothing that escapes his attention. He knows the real estate business and shares his knowledge on his website and in person by providing free monthly buying / selling seminars: http://www.militaryrealestate.com. We were blown away with the wealth of information provided; so much so, we attended both seminars!

As we approached the date to officially put our home on the market, Bob followed up his selling seminar instructions and delivered hands on advice to ensure our home was ready for the market. He provided a home profile, our very own personal website for prospective buyers, and state of the art pictures and a home video emphasizing the special features of our home!

We were kept abreast throughout the entire process as he promptly returned phone calls and emails. Bob illustrated a great understanding of contract details, negotiation etiquette and documentation.

We highly recommend Bob to anyone looking for a smart, highly effective and reliable real estate agent who is concerned about your needs and not his. There is a reason why he is a Lifetime Top Producer.

Letter of Recommendation in case of Mr. Bob Hummer

My wife, Kelly and I would highly recommend Mr. Hummer to our friends, neighbors, and colleagues for

realtor services. Whether buying or selling, a military family, or first time buyer he provides decades of

experience with genuine sincerity and character when looking out for your best interest. As first time

buyers under a quick time crunch, Bob reassured us through the entire process and made us feel

comfortable. Even while doing most our buying process from long distance, Bob was always reliable via

phone or email to answer our questions and keep us well informed throughout the application, loan,

and settlement process. When we met to tour our favorite properties, he provided us a wealth of

information and made us feel relaxed with the sometimes mounting stress of making a big financial

commitment. As a member of the community himself, Bob provided us plenty of helpful tips on local

activities, dining, and events to make us feel at home with our new neighbors. He provided upfront and

honest information during the offer and settlement process allowing us to reach a settlement with ease.

Due to us being unable to attend, he personally handled our inspection process and worked with the

seller to watch out for us. Bob remained committed to our family by working with the lender and seller

in getting our settlement date moved to the earliest possible date. This avoided extra stress with

balancing our move and work schedules. Bob’s character, honesty, and professionalism left us

extremely satisfied, and we gained a friend and neighbor within our new community. Our family plans

on using him in the future for all our realtor needs, and my wife and I are recommending him to all our

nearby friends.

Bob's Buyer Clients Speak

Dear Bob,

Thank you so much for all of your help in finding my first home! A lot of people feel uncomfortable and unsure when looking for their first home, but thanks to you I felt very positive and certain during this experience. You are very knowledgeable in you field and whenever I had a question, you were able to answer and provided me with certainty making decisions. Words cannot describe how I felt when I was at the table and closing on the house and you were there every step of the way insuring that everything was correct. Mr. Hummer, I feel that no amount of thanks that I say will be enough but i'll try! Thank you so very much, I am truly thankful and will definitely refer you to anyone that I know who is interested in selling or buying a home.

Dear Bob,

We wanted to take the time to express how much we have appreciated working with you through this entire process. As you know very well, this was our first experience not only in buying a home, but in finding out how much there is to doing it! Trying to find and purchase a home in Virginia in less than 3 months from arriving shortly after 7 years in Germany was quite the daunting task, everyone thought we were crazy, but we knew that if we could find a realtor who we could trust and who would understand our unique situation that we could make it happen! Working with you has really been a pleasure. With your guidance and expertise, you managed to walk us through each step of the process, allowing us to feel comfortable making this truly important decision. It was the extra effort and patience that you consistently showed us that made this home purchase possible. You have gone far beyond the normal expectation of a realtor. My Wife, my son and I are both thrilled with the house and can't thank you enough for taking the time, and the interest, to help make this dream a reality.

Hi Bob,

Sorry for the delay in getting this to you:

I apologize for not getting this letter to you sooner. I wanted to commend you for your excellent service during the purchase of our home. You went over and above what we were expecting and made this deal happen. We can’t imagine what it would have been like to go through the process of buying our first home without your patience, guidance, sense of humor and wealth of knowledge of the market/area.

It became very clear during the process that we were working with the best! We were very fortunate to have met Bob, he helped us find the “perfect” house. His vast experience in this business provided a wealth of knowledge that was beyond our expectations and was an invaluable part of making the whole process very smooth, comfortable and quite educational!

After attending his first-time home-buyers class, I knew that we made the right choice. Everything was crystal clear and there were no surprises with the numbers. He answered our questions promptly (ie: lots of emails/phone calls J), addressed our concerns without making us feel any pressure, and guided us to our new home that we are super-excited to have moved in to! There is no way for us to express how much we appreciate the tremendous value of working with you, but we will absolutely be working with you again when the time comes to buy our next home and definitely refer you to others.

Thank you Bob Hummer!!!

Dear Bob,

I don’t even know where to start thus the long delay in my letter.

I’ll begin by saying, “Thank you with all of my heart.”I don’t even want to think about what would have happened if we wouldn’t have met you. By the grace of God, you came to us in our darkest hour, when the burden and despair of losing our home to foreclosure was on our doorstep.

With your knowledge and expertise of the various programs available to homeowners in trouble with their mortgage, you gave us hope. You took us through each step explaining what was going on and what would happen next. You made us feel that we weren’t battling against the big bad mortgage company alone.

I know there are a lot of families in the same situation we were in. I wish I could broadcast your name to them. You became our voice and advocate in dealing with the mortgage company. You successfully priced, marketed, showed our home and stayed by our side every step of the way until it was sold.

With all the red tape you have to deal with on the federal programs, selling and buying a regular home must seem quite simple to you. Either way, you’re a knight in shining armor. I seriously don’t know what we would’ve done without you. I continue to recommend you to everyone as a small token of our thanks and appreciation for all your help.

We wish you much continued success in all that you do.

God bless you,

Paula S. Kane

Hello Bob,

The words in this letter will never be able to express my sincere gratitude for your patience and support during this very trying time of my life. Fourteen months ago I saw an ad in the local paper and decided it was time that I called someone to try and help me to keep my home from going into foreclosure. My home was set to sell on October 1,2010 when I called you it was September 22, 2010. You promptly showed up on Thursday23, and my house was listed on line by midnight Friday the24th. Seven days later I had the first of nine contracts on my home. I know that you were sent by God.

What a journey we have taken; the ups and downs have been many but you never gave up even when I thought all hope was gone you were steady and stayed focused on the goal of selling my home. Your knowledge and expertise in understanding the in our outs of the mortgage world was a great help to me.

Anyone who asks will hear from me “call Bob, I know he will be able to help you

in some way. The struggle is not over for me yet, but one hurdle has been taken and that was on November 21, 2011 when there was a short sale settlement on my home

... Thank God!! And thank you Bob for being there every step of the way.

Sincerely,

Patricia A. Brown
