Dear Jim,

        Thank you very much for assisting us with our relocation from Angola, Indiana to Williamsburg, Ohio.   

        The time you spent setting up the home search emails and showing us homes on short notice was very helpful.  Your helpfulness continued as you searched for information, as we narrowed our search, while you were on vacation.  We are very appreciative of that.

        Because of our distance and the fact that we were unfamiliar with services in the area, your suggestions for home inspectors, surveyors, and home insurance providers was also extremely helpful.  You even went the extra mile, after our contact to these people, to set up appointments and continue contact with them on our behalf.

        Thanks again for making our home buying experience as easy as it could be.  You went above and beyond the call of duty many times to assist us.

                        Thank you,

                        Joe and Debbie

                Jim canvassed our neighborhood asking if anyone knew of folks looking for a house in the area.  Communication was excellent as he kept us informed each step of the process.  He was a very effective Real Estate agent.

            Jim -  We just wanted to thank you for EVERYTHING you did to sell our   home.  You made it a pleasurable and pleasant experience (even when it was challenging).  We would and will definitely recommend you to family and friends.  THANK YOU!!!

 Jim kept us informed and updated to what was going on each week until he closed our deal. 

      Since our house sold within 3 days and our closing lasted less than 1 hour, I feel like nothing could be added to enhance the service we received.

Working with Jim was a pleasure.  He kept us informed after a showing.  He made constructive suggestions on preparing for an open house.  Jim was never too busy to return calls, and offered to help us in many ways.  My husband and I are happy to recommend Jim Hood.  John & Thelma

Our house had been on the market for quiet a while (about 2 years) when Jim became our Realtor.  We had used two other Real Estate companies with no success.  Jim tackled the job of selling our home with high energy, enthusiasm, and a very positive attitude.  He gave us honest feedback on things we needed to change about our house to help it sell.  He helped us to understand the competition in our area and how we should deal with it.

The best thing about Jim is his enthusiasm and his true concern about the individual.  We always felt that he was truly on "our side" - looking out for our interests.  We have moved 10 times in 22 years of marriage.  We have dealt with quite a few Realtors.  Jim, by far, is the best we've had.  If we move again in the future, he will be our Realtor.  Dale & Kathy

We want to share with you the great experience we recently had in getting our home sold.  There are always points of concern and challenges in selling and buying a home and we had our share of the, but our Realtor and friend, Jim Hood, helped smooth the way.

Our home had been on the market for quite a while through other agents.  We had showings, but nothing ever resulted in getting our home sold.  After the other agents failed, we talked wit Jim.  He strove to be a super servant in all he did.  He listened closely to our needs and patterned all he did to fit those needs.  He kept us informed and always kept our options open to us.  We knew what was going on in the market and how that impacted  the sale of our home.

We recommend Jim, not just as our Realtor, but as our friend.  If you ever have a Real Estate need, just give him a call and let him know that we sent you.  It isn't often that you find someone who has worked for you that you feel comfortable referring as a friend, but we feel we can do that with Jim.   David & Carol
