Rick, We never would have followed through on this double move without your help. When the delays kept coming, we would have found a way to bail, viewing the delays as a sign we weren't meant to move. But you were always there with a solution and a calm, sympathetic voice to help us find a way. What you understand instinctively, that other realtors don't, is that a move--any move--is emotional. Why we move is emotional. What we buy is emotional. And when a buyer/seller has lived at his/her old home for decades and is change-averse, the emotions are even stronger. We always felt--even when we first looked at older condos--that you were looking out for us. You didn't push us to buy or show impatience when we decided to stay in Montgomery Village. And then, when Morris fell and had a variety of health issues, you were there once again--cheerful, sympathetic, and oh yes, knowledgea…

If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have received an additional $4600 toward closing. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have found this lovely short-term rental in Kentlands. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known who could economically and reliably fix the joist problem in the basement and the radon situation. If it weren't for you, we would still be searching for a painter and someone to take our junk. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I needed to sell my dad’s condo in North Bethesda and I didn’t have a lot of time to put into it. Richard told me he’d make it as easy as possible, which was exactly what he did. It needed painting and a few repairs. He gave me all the contacts and was present to get the estimates so I avoided taking time off work. He knew exactly what color to select. He sent me Amazon links to new lights. The entire time he was considering the bottom line, a fast sale for the best price. He recommended staging. I was a little anxious about the cost. He said it would sell faster which was my #1 goal. It looked amazing! We got multiple offers in the first weekend. While I was on the beach, he guided me through the offers, selecting the one that would most likely get us to settlement without a glitch. It sold for over the appraised value! He was always patient and kind. Every suggestion he made was the r…

From when starting to know Mr. Richard Prigal until closing and even after, I have no other words to describe him but excellent, especially in assisting me on selling a home for the first-time! He was very organized in providing me information on what to do for every phase of the home selling process. He even made sure in-person that the most important parts of it, such as the home staging photo shoots, the security arrangements for visits from potential buyers, the provision of details on offers on the home, and other inspection activities went through very smoothly and in a timely manner. Since I needed to sell the home to purchase another out-of-state, he communicated with other real estate personnel very effectively and provided me constant updates through any means- whether by phone, email, or in-person- to ensure the home being sold was ready for stagings, inspections, walkthroughs…

Since I needed to sell the home to purchase another out-of-state, he communicated with other real estate personnel very effectively and provided me constant updates through any means- whether by phone, email, or in-person- to ensure the home being sold was ready for stagings, inspections, walkthroughs, and closings according to the schedule of the outside home purchase. He did all of this under the tight timeframe of a contingency operation! He can even assist with post-occupation and moving matters, since I needed to stay a few weeks after selling the home while he ensured the buyer was ready to move in once I moved out later than usual. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs to buy and sell a home at the same time, especially to first-time home sellers who hardly have any idea on how to do it! Richard and his team at RLAH Properties will smooth out that process for you very well as he did for me!
