feedback from our clients!
Jona, USAID Officer:
"We are accidental real estate investors, and worked with Lisa and Tim to clarify our goals and long-term objectives. Tim and Lisa are a fountain of knowledge on so many aspects of real estate investing. They were willing to work with us wherever we were, fitting in meetings between moves and global upheaval. Their ability to tap resources in various locations and connect clients with reputable service providers allowed us to explore new markets and find some exciting opportunities for us to explore in the coming months and years. We recommend working with Lisa and Tim without reservation."
Elliot, Professional Basketball Player
"Tim and Lisa from REI Concierge have been an integral part of my real estate investing journey. Ever since Tim found me on the Bigger Pockets forums, they have been nothing but professional, helpful, and accommodating. They have helped guide me from being an absolute newbie, to being comfortable and confident in putting my first rental property under contract in a matter of 2 months! Not to mention making this work while the 3 of us were on 3 different continents! I started with the question of, "Was it possible to buy a property in the US while living abroad?" And they answered that with a definite "YES", then proceeded to show me how very possible it is. They provided me with the education to learn the basics of real estate investing, the counseling to work through my fears and doubts, and finally connected me with their network of real estate professionals. All this then leading to me being able to put a house under contract while living in Taiwan! I consider their service well worth the cost. Even after our "contract" came to an end, they have consistently encouraged me to keep asking them questions, and have been willing to continue mentoring me for as long as I would like them to! I consider them friends, and can't thank them enough for opening up a world to me that I previously didn't know existed! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to get into the real estate investing game. You will not be disappointed."
