Tom Rao

This was the second property that I sold with Tom Rao's assistance. The housing market was different this time and with his experience we were able to navigate the sale of our own home. He was able to level set our expectations early on so that we could maximize our proceeds in a more buyer centric market. Through his comparison with other properties to ours we settled on a selling price that led to offers from serious buyers. He helped us keep our emotions out of the process and ultimately the current market dictated the selling price for the house. I would definitely recommend Tom without hesitation to any homeowner that is considering selling their house.

Tom Rao's reputation prededed him; we were referred by a neighbor. Tom knows the city well. We accepted our first offer within days of listing. It should be noted that we are out-of-state sellers. Therefore, Tom was our intermediary for all required "seller" responsibilities, including working with our HOA and interfacing with neighbors. Additionally, Tom kept us informed by sharing all new competitive listings on a weekly basis. We talked frequently each week as the escrow progressed. We assure anyone looking for a real estate agent, Tom Rao would exceed their expectations.

I met Tom four years ago and mention I was lookig for a propery in NewPort. He immediately asked the price range I was intersted in and got all my info and set up a direct listing in the Newport and surrounding towns. He shows me many properties and was phyiscally there!!! Once I found the property in NewPort. Tom wasted no time and worked dillgence to get my offer accepted and deal closed. I appreciated Tom's hard work and as a builder/ developer myself I understand what it takes to get the job done right! Tom & I have become good friends. Joe venturoso
