What Our Clients Say
For many people one of lifes milestones is selling your childhood or parent’s home. My parents bought our home when my father returned from his WWII military service in 1945. When our parents passed recently we made the difficult decision to sell the house that my family had owned for 64 years and where we had a lot of wonderful memories. The house needed some work so the decision had to be made to sell it “as is” or to make the necessary improvements to hopefully sell the house quickly.
With the market what it was we decided to enlist the advice of a local expert. Although we knew the house was in a desirable neighborhood Cedar Tree Point we wanted to make sure the planned updates would give us a return on our investment. Since David Splaine had sold several homes in the area we solicited his help and advice.
Over the course of a year we called on David several times. He was always quick to stop by the house offer advice and check on our progress. Worth noting is that this all occurred before we ever committed to using David and his team to sell the house.
When the updates were completed we sat down with David to review what we had invested and to set a selling price. We explained that we wanted to price the house fairly for the present market and that we preferred a quick sale. You can imagine our surprise and delight when we received a strong offer within two weeks of listing the house. A few days later we had our buyer in a sales agreement. Not only were we delighted with the work of The Splaine Team but we were also pleased that the people buying “our home” were a young couple with a daughter.
The decision to sell your childhood home is difficult but it brought back many fond memories of growing up in a loving family and a wonderful neighborhood. Working with David Splaine and his team made the whole process easier than we had expected and very rewarding.

| My sister and I were faced with the difficult task of selling our mother’s home when she suddenly passed away. Since we live out of state neither of us was equipped with local market knowledge. David provided us with market data on comparable properties allowing us to price the house at a level which generated significant interest among potential buyers while assuring the best sale price. He checked on the house frequently in our absence and his help with inspections and needed repairs was invaluable. We were under contract within three months of listing the property with David. I would recommend him and his team without reservation |

| When first moving to Rhode Island my wife and I were unsure if we wanted to use a real estate agent. We had used one in the past and had a negative experience. How could we find an agent who would not push us into deals be patient when trying to figure out what we want and most importantly look out for our best interest Luckily we found The David Splaine Team. They were always readily available via cell phone. Every question was answered quickly. They offered sound practical advice. Thanks to Dave and his team we had found the home of our dreams without the stress and with some fun along the way. |

| When I first met Dave I wasn’t even sure I wanted to put my house on the market. After meeting with him several times and reviewing his extensive market analysis I listed my home with his team. Thanks to his aggressive marketing we had numerous showings and as several offers in the first two months on the market. I soon had a Purchase Sales Agreement. Throughout the process Dave responded quickly to any of my questions or concerns even while he was on vacation. Dave is knowledgeable professional honest and an all around nice guy |

| Starting out as a For Sale by Owner I quickly learned that I didn’t have the time to do all that needed to be done. So I hired another realtor prior to Dave for 3 months who had one showing in that time. Once I listed with Dave he sold my home in less than 30 days almost faster that I could move I am very pleased to have hired a realtor with your standards and commitment. Having you to guide me on contracts banking approvals inspections etc. made my life a lot easier. Your expertise in real estate surpasses that of any of the realtors I used in selling 4 previous properties. Thank you again. |

| We recently relocated from Maine to RI. Dave and his team made the transition very easy. It didnt take us long to decide which house was The One. Dave kept us calm and focused as we went through all the steps he guided us on what to do and in which order. He was especially helpful on the day of the closing when we panicked because the house wasnt empty yet. I do believe he actually would have helped move the sellers furniture out if need be His knowledge and expertise were invaluable. I would not hesitate to call on Dave for any of my real estate needs in the future. |

| Looking for my first home was not easy especially as a Boston resident who was not familiar with Rhode Island. Daves commitment timeliness and professionalism through each phase of the process made it easy and enjoyable. He provided the expert guidance knowledge and high quality service needed to purchase a home that was right for me. He even drove by houses and neighborhoods prior to scheduling a viewing of the home. This really saved me a lot of time and travel. Today I live in a beautiful two family home that exceeded my initial expectations. Thank you Dave for all your help I couldnt have done it without you. |

How do we begin to express our gratitude for Daves efforts Do we begin with the endless phone calls with questions and concerns that Dave always accepted without hesitation When we say endless it is in the truest sense of the word Maybe it was when Dave was on vacations with his family and with friends over holidays continuing to try to make things happen for us. We actually put an offer in on a house on Thanksgiving day Although that house did not pan out for us Dave continued plugging away trying to find our dream home with endless research into new schools and speaking with many town halls to ensure we were buying a solid house. All this while trying to sell our home which he did for over asking price.
In mid-December after exhaustive efforts we finally found that dream home. And once again during the holidays this time Christmas and New Years Dave was working out the details of both transactions while at the same time keeping us calm which was no small task. Now all is said and done and we are settled in our beautiful new home which Dave still comes and visits. We wanted to say thank you for everything Dave. Not only did we find a fantastic real estate agent we found a new friend. You are a cut a cut above the rest.
