For anyone looking to buy a home this review is for you.

Larry Raspbury is by far the best agent out there. Over the years, my husband and I have purchased 7 homes throughout the U.S. and have never dealt with anyone like Larry. On this particular venture we were looking for a lake front property in the Traverse City area, as a second home. (We reside in SouthEast MI.) We made two trips up north to look before finding exactly what we wanted. But it wasn't without some excitement.

The first trip up, our vehicle slid down an icy road that wound around a lake. This was the end of Feb. We were stuck at the bottom of the dead end street. Larry went and got bags of sand/salt and poured them out on the icy, sloaped street. We were thankfully able to drive our car up and out onto the main road. Larry just so happened to have a shovel in his car and on more than one occasion, dug a path through the snow to see a property. He climbed down into a crawl space with my husband and checked that the space had no moisture and was lined properly. When we were unable to see a property that came up in our MLS search, Larry would go to the property and video it for us. Then he'd send the video to us on YouTube! It was just like being there. For the inspections, we were not able to be there, but Larry was with his video camera. We never missed a thing. It was great! I think he lives with his lap top attached at the hip because he was always available for questions, even in the late evening hours when I wasn't expecting a response. Larry will send you every piece of information he can find on each property. He holds nothing back and is working 100% for you. He has your best interest in mind all the time. He is very versed on the lakes in the area and knows a lot about lake front living (if that's your interest.) I would use him again as an agent hands down. I'd even list my house with him if he took listings. He loves to show properties and it shows. Use him. You won't regret it! He is an outstanding agent, and now a friend. What more can you ask for?
Larry is simply one of the best realtors out there. He is extremely knowledgable as a professional and just an easy person to talk to. He knows how to listen and delivers accordingly.I know if you choose him as your realtor he will exceed your expectations.
Larry helped me buy a home from 2000 miles away. He knew what we wanted and searched till he found a few homes that he thought would interest us. In fact, after we identified a favorite subdivision, he wrote a letter to every homeowner in that subdivision who did not have their home listed and found several people who were thinking of selling. To make a long story short, we bought one that he found. In another instance, we signed a contract to buy a home and after having a home inspection, we changed our mind. Larry successfully got the deal canceled and got our money back. Larry is very low key, honest, and not pushy in any way. My wife and I recommend him highly as a buyer's agent.
As first time buyers we knew nothing about the process. We were so glad we found Larry. He was patience itself, we had so many questions, he had the answers or knew where to get them. Larry is a real professional and knows the business very well. He obviously enjoys what he does. We learned so much from him. As a buyer's agent he worked for US and there was never any pressure, just opinions and advice that we trusted completely. Larry encouraged us to look at as many properties as we could, never pushed us in one direction or another. We really appreciated Larry's support and guidance when making offers and when waiting for responses. We always felt that Larry was looking out for us and making sure we were getting a fair deal. We are now in our new home and very happy. Buying a home for the first time is daunting but Larry led us through it all and made it an enjoyable experience. It was comforting to know he was there with his voice of reason and advice. If we ever buy another home, Larry would be our first call and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home.

Being first time home buyers we didn't know what to expect. Larry was GREAT in so many ways. He was very knowledgable on all the different types of homes and what to look for in finding a home. We were very impressed with his quick responses to everything we asked. He really went above and beyond anything we ever expected. If you are looking to buy a home, Larry is the one you need to use. If you truly want somone who will work for you he is the guy! Overall we were very impressed and would use him again without a question.
Being first time home buyers, my husband and I didn't know everything to expect during the home searching/buying process. Larry stepped up to the challenge and we are so glad he did! He fought for us during a messy purchasing process and went above and beyond what we expected any realtor to do! If you have an opportunity to work with Larry, someone who fights for what you want, take it. My husband and I are so happy in our home and it?s because of Larry.
larry has helped me buy more than one house over the years plus one commercial bldg. He is always there with answers to my questions some I didn'd even think of. Paul Breakie
Larry was great and helped us buy our first home, very patient and informative for a first time house buyer!
Helped hold my hand and guide me through a rather complex process of purchasing a home using an FHA 203K streamline loan. Ended up I got the house I wanted in the location I wanted at a great price. Thanks, Larry!
Larry Raspbury is the ideal agent for ANYONE buying a home. He not only gave us time, patience and attention...he LISTENED to our needs and helped us find the PERFECT home for our family. He gave us regular feedback and kept us up to date on new listings. If you are looking for someone who won't just try to sell you to make a commission but is sincerely looking out for you,Larry Raspbury is the agent to have. We truly wish there were more agents like Larry.
