Housing Solutions Real Estate, LLC

I can't say enough positive things about Housing Solutions! My husband and I relocated to the Upper Valley in late 2013, and my new company referred me to Matt McIntyre at Housing Solutions to help with finding a place to rent short term while we familiarized ourselves with the area prior to buying a house. We had a difficult set of needs to fulfill, since we have pets, and we did not want to sign a year-long lease. Even though Housing Solutions does not manage rentals directly, Matt put me in touch with several other landlords and property managers who fit our needs. Fast forward a few months. We decided to start seriously looking for houses to buy. I sent Matt a list of must-haves, nice-to-haves, and shoot-for-the-moons. At the end of the email, I told him our ultimate dream was to live on a lake in the mountains, but we didn't expect that to happen with our first house. Matt immediately responded, letting me know he knew of a house that had just been taken off the market for the winter, but was due to go back on in the Spring. It had lake views, lake access, all of our must-haves, and most of our nice-to-haves... all in our budget! He arranged a showing for us, and we both immediately fell in love with the house (although admittedly, my husband was being a bit more cautiously optimistic than I was, as I immediately began referring to it as "our house," haha). Since this was literally the first house we had ever looked at, and since we had the luxury of time because the house wasn't an active listing, we asked Matt to show us some other houses all around the Upper Valley to get a feel for what else we could get in our budget. Matt knew we weren't going to find anything more fitting of our needs than that first house, yet he patiently met with us several more times to show us another 10 houses or so. Throughout the entire process, he was very candid, honest, and helpful. Since this was our first time buying a house, he patiently explained how everything worked, and answered all of our dumb questions. I also took comfort in knowing that Housing Solutions is a buyer's only agency, and so we wouldn't run into any conflicts of interest like you sometimes can if you go through an agency that may also be representing the seller. Ultimately, we ended up putting in an offer for the first house. Matt helped us through the offer, counter-offer, inspections, and closing process. He referred us to just about everyone we used throughout the buying process, and everything was smooth and painless under his guidance. Thank you a million times over to Housing Solutions for finding us our perfect home!
