Kevin Anderson of CENTURY 21 Affiliated

I contacted Kevin Anderson a few years ago when we considered buying in Saugatuck, MI. We made a trip into town and Kevin showed us houses we had chosen - we even put an offer in on a house then, but timing was not right. Kevin stuck by us for another year and I communicated with him using the internet search program he set up for us and mainly by email (we live in NJ) as our focus changed to Grand Rapids. I would HIGHLY recommend Kevin to anyone looking to buy in the western Michigan area. I have bought homes in the past and my experience with brokers is that they do not really do much. Kevin is the opposite of this. I have never had a broker who was so knowledgeable of the market, of home construction, and who went the extra mile. If he didn't know something, he found out. While we looked online for a year before we flew in to GR for 2 weeks to actually look & buy. Kevin had everything ready to make it possible for us to find a wonderful home, go into contract, and have the inspection before we had to fly back to NJ. He stayed on top of all the inspection and closing issues while we were gone and made it all happen. Could not have done it without him. Cannot recommend him highly enough. Kevin clearly explained all aspects of the process so that nothing was a surprise. Very detailed. (latest example - he mailed me the keys and they were 'smart keys' that I was not familiar with. He told me he had just watched the video on how they work and I should watch it and it was pretty simple.) We were always in communication about all the details and loose ends. He reminded me about utilities and lawn mowing, etc. He looked at the houses we saw with the same level of detail I did and pointed out the good and bad. He went head to head with the seller as the seller could not justify his asking price and Kevin dug and dug until we were satisfied that the price we offered was reasonable. I am very satisfied. Down to earth. Good sense of humor. Century 21 is lucky to have him. Kevin handled everything for us. The Grand Rapids market is so hot that houses went into contract in 48 hours. Kevin got us into houses on day 1. Without him we would not have known about the house we eventually bought.

Kevin was great. He went above and beyond having to deal with the sellers. We needed a repair done before closing and he found us a contractor and worked with the sellers to get it done. It was trying. I would recommend Kevin to anyone.

Kevin was great when it came to narrowing our search down. He always had a really flexible schedule and was very easy to keep in contact with throughout the entire home being process. I would definitely recommend Kevin to anyone who is looking for a home.

He was absolutely amazing. He helped me through every issue with the lender and the seller. I will definitely refer him to anyone buying or selling a home.

Kevin was friendly yet professional. He was great with communication and meeting our needs in finding a home. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a home.

Kevin worked really hard for us, dealing with a difficult situation-with us (the sellers) living out of state and not able to always deal with physical issues of the property in a timely manner, plus having to deal with existing renters occupying the property, while he did showings, inspections,etc. His knowledge of area sales helped us see what kind of further work needed to be done to make our house sellable and his patience and constant communication throughout the process was very helpful. Overall Kevin Anderson was a huge blessing to us and made the process of selling our house as painless and easy as possible. He did a great job.
