When looking for the 'perfect property' in Northwestern Montana and living in Chicago, we needed to find more than just a realtor we needed a trusted advisor, someone who knows the area like the back of their hand. Andrew Hohnberger is that person. He has spent most of his life in a place that the rest of us can only dream about. It is his extensive knowledge of the land and environment that separates him from his peers. We quickly realized that we could trust Andrew from the start and since we would not be able to view the property ourselves before we purchased our faith and confidence in Andrew was all we had to go on. Via Andrew's expertise we were able to find our 'Montana Dream', and in the end we found much more then property, we found a friend.

Andrew really looked after us! Going way beyond the call of duty! He returned all my calls, answered all my questions, and never left me wondering what was going on throughout the entire process of purchasing our new home here in beautiful Montana.

On one occasion we found there was an easement across the corner of the property we were interested in, the paperwork we had received was unclear, we could not figure it out. But alas, I don't know who Andrew called or what he had to do to get the answers, but sure enough he got all the confusion sorted out!

If I had to sum up our recent real estate transaction with Andrew, I would have to use adjectives such as, efficient, timely, `switched-on', willing, `on top of things', and above all, just plain old honest.

If you need someone to sell your place or find you a place, I can whole-heartedly recommend to you Andrew Hohnberger.

We purchased our property 'long-distance' which meant that we necessarily had to rely on the services of our realtor, Andrew Hohnberger.We have been involved in real estate transactions a number of times in the past but we have never received such consistent attention and assistance as we received from Andrew in this transaction. Since it wasn't an expensive purchase and since he had to split the commission with the listing agent, it could not have been the prospect of a large commission that made him work so hard...

In the past there were questions that had to be resolved regarding the title. There were insufficient comps to make the appraisal acceptable to most lenders. It seemed that every way we turned we heard the same word' 'We like you but won't lend on this property.' It was a discouraging situation, or would have been with a lesser realtor. Andrew stuck with us through 10 mortgage companies until we found one that would loan on this property; then he was able to coordinate the efforts of everyone involved to make it from loan application to closing in 10 days!

If we had it to do over, we'd still choose Andrew, hands down!

A Satisfied Cliet Of A Real Estate Professional,

We had no idea we would be so richly rewarded with a professional and personal relationship that will surely endure. First of all Andrew is dependable. without fail he returned our phone calls, promptly maintained all appointments and kept us informed as we considered properties. If he did not have an answer (which rarely occured), he found one.

...Andrew is an exceptional Realtor. He is intuitive when it comes to understanding his clients as he matches them with available properties... To say that he is a hands-on Realtor is an understatement, he is a man of action and exploration... Andrew is very proficient at resolving the legal issues surrounding real estate transactions.

Since having known Andrew I have often considered those traits that set him apart from other Realtors, or for that matter, other professionals in general. Andrew operates from a well-defined value system and code of ethics...

Bob and I consider ourselves fortunate to have become acquainted with Andrew. While our real estate transaction has reached a conclusion, thankfully our personal relationship with him has not. We will always remember Andrew as our first introduction, and a very positive introduction, to Montana. We could not have found a better ambassador who enabled us to make a smootg transition to this area.

When our home in Baltimore sold, I flew out to view properties in Northwest Montana and the Idaho Panhandle. With only three days to spend in Montana, it was critical that each hour be used to the fullest. Andrew was able to quickly assess my wants and needs after the first interview. He had a thorough knowledge of the market and we saved alot of time ruling out those properties that would not be right for me and my family. Each day as we began, I would have several advertisementsfrom real estate publications that looked interesting to me. In almost every case he had either seen the property in person, or had enough information to tell me if it would be worth seeing. That kind of market knowledge is indispensable to somebody working under such time constraints.

Buying a home from almost three thousand miles away is not easy or comfortable. I had complete confidence in Andrew. Many things were new to me such as, water rights and easements. He explained everything completelyand found prompt answers to those questions he couldn't answer immediately. When the home inspection turned up major problems, Andrew was there to follow through and make sure the repairs were completed.

Several weeks after the sale an issue came up relating to the original contract. Again, Andrew was there to handle this final problem, even after the sale was complete. Thanks to Andrew, we now own a little piece of heaven. He gets my highest recommendation.

Sincerely,
Mark Fink

Thanks for all the help in closing on our new home. It was truely a pleasure working with you. I have bought/sold several properties and can honestly say that you have been the most responsive, honest and easiest person in any of my real estate transactions. The most impressive quality is the ease in contacting you and on the few occasions I left a message the response time was great. That is of greatimpotance to me. Also, not being from the area and not knowing items such as water rights and access issues I found you knowledgable. It was nice to have someone in your corner to give you straight answers and help through some complicated issues. As far as recomendations, I would have to say keep doing what you are doing, and keep up the great communication with your clients, it is important and in my deal it was greatly appreciated. I will be happy to give you a personal recomendation anytime. I expect a lot from people and you delivered. In the future, I will recomend you to any friends and buisness associates with confidence.

Sincerely,
Dave Freyder
