What do Clients Say?

Hello Norm, Words do not do you justice! Although James and I made you aware of how thrilled we were with you throughout the home buying process we wanted to take a moment again to give thanks. While we know that this is your job we want you (and anyone else that needs to know) just how wonderful and painless you made our experience. On the multi-year road to purchasing our home, we had three different realtors and you confirmed the saying, "three times is a charm"! Having had two realtors before you we have something to compare you to and truly you far exceeded them all. We could not believe the wealth of information you shared during our very first showing (which was the first time we met). You explained the difference between traditional, foreclosures, estate and short sales, let us know your showing style and advised us of your 20 year expertise with building homes. You shared information that our other realtors did not and your personality allowed us to immediately feel comfortable with you. Your background in building homes proved to be a bonus as you were able to point out things (both good and bad) that helped us make our final decision. Thank you for holding our hand and walking us through the entire process (viewing to settlement day). Your attention to detail and contact throughout the process made us feel as though we were your only client. We have been in our new home for three months and your name still comes up and always with a smile. You are the only realtor we recommend when we hear someone say they are in the market for a home. All the best in all you do! Thanks beyond words, James and Arnee March 19, 2016

To Whom It May Concern, Let us start by simply stating that Mr. Norman Lee is the realtor that everyone wishes they had, and that every realtor should wish they were. We were in the market to buy our first home together and having bought and sold homes in the past, we have dealt with our fair share of realtors; some that seemed to actually care, but most that wondered what we could do for them. In the end we always felt that we should have used someone else. So when we met Norman during the showing of a house that he had listed, we were pleasantly surprised to find a realtor that was genuinely interested in assisting us in our search. Norman was the breath of fresh air that we so desperately needed to help us in navigating the local real estate market. He took the time to ensure that we understood the realtor/client (buyer) process and that our expectations would be met. We provided him with our criteria and he quickly presented us with numerous options to explore. When the time came to view homes, Norman did not let inclement weather stop us. Ultimately, his tenacity is what led us to find our new home. Norman was there throughout every step of the buying process; from offer letter to home inspection to closing, and everything in between. Any questions that we had, we knew that Norman was only a phone call away. And because you quickly realize that Norman actually cares, you will easily find yourself trusting his years of expertise. Not once did I think twice about any information that he provided us. The bottom line about Norman is this…he is a genuine, hard-working professional who from the beginning makes you feel more like a friend, and less like a client. For this reason, should the time arise, we would definitely use Norman again for the sale or purchase of a home. If you would like additional information regarding how Norman Lee is the right realtor for you, please do not hesitate to contact us. Good luck! Sincerely, Shawn Arnwine & Laura Boyer, August 2007

To Whom It May Concern: I am writing to express our heartfelt and upmost appreciation with our agent Norman Lee. Throughout the entire process Norm was very professional, conscientious and motivated with an impossibly high work ethic., and the ability to meet our every need. Norm provided us with outstanding research about the market and the value of our home: as well as a very strong price and marketing strategy for the sale process. Norm provided a profile of our home for people touring and followed up on everyone that came to see our home. He promptly returned all phone calls and used all possible sources to make sure that our home got the best advertising possible. He worked hard, illustrated a great understanding of contract details, negotiation etiquette and documentation. We truly appreciated Norm's calm reassurance and expert adviee throughout the entire process. He explained all aspects of our selling and buying process in laymen's terms. Norm not only did an amazing job on the sale of our home. He also helped us through the process of finding our new home as well. His knowledge of both realestate and construction helped us tremendously in the search for our new home. Our home was on the market for twelve days but it felt like twelve months. Norm was truly amazing in keeping me calm and focused. I can't thank him enough for all he did for us. His knowledge and professionalism put me at ease. He was always there for us when we called with any questions and concerns. Not only does he represent the best in a real-estate agent, he has redefined a new standard by which all agents should strive to achieve. Norm was an absolute pleasure to work with. We have friends and family that will be selling their home shortly and we have strongly recommended Norm to our friends and family. We are truly grateful to have worked with Norm. Roger & Tina Nist

Norm, I realize that Janet had already written a thank you note, but thought a letter of recommendation was in order as well. Please feel free to use this with potential clients who would like a reference. Selling a home can be a daunting task, and selecting the correct real estate agent is challenging. I should know, as I have had to do this five times over the last 30 years. My sister happens to own a real estate firm, unfortunately she is hundreds of miles away, and does not service our area. Nevertheless, I asked her for some recommendations, and she provided several. In reviewing the information available on-line, I immediately had a good feeling about Norm. His experience both in home building and real estate was impressive. From my first contact with Norm, I felt a sense of comfort that comes from working with a professional. He was responsive, provided the information we needed to make informed decisions, and discussed options with us openly. The team that he used for photography and videography were exceptional, the on-line photographs looked great. We anticipated having our home on the market for several months, as some homes in our neighborhood had been on the market for almost a year. It took less than a week to have two contracts in hand. While that was fantastic, we now faced the challenge of finding a new home in another state quickly. Norm guided us in the entire process, helped align closing dates, and last-minute changes in the process. We were always well informed and in good hands. I would give Norm and his team my highest recommendation. If you are looking for a true real estate professional, give Norm a call. Mike and Janet Anderson

Norman: I don't know what to say other than thank you and thank the Lord for bringing you to us. You have taken such incredible care of us that we are in awe! In so many ways you went so far above and beyond what any normal person would have done to make this tough and trying deal as good as it could possibly be. I will sing your praises to all that will listen and probably to some that won't. You are singly the finest person (and broker) that we have ever known. No one could have helped us as much or as well. I will never forget all you have done. I hope this is the beginning of a great friendship! Thanks! Duke & Annemarie Spence

About Norman

I would like to take a moment to share a little about myself and why you might consider working with me as your real estate agent.

To begin, I have lived in the Maryland Chesapeake Bay Area nearly all my life. My father, an Air Force officer, moved our family from California to Maryland when I was just 10 years old. I have been here ever since. My wife, Peggy, was born in Annapolis. Our two sons, their wives, and our four grandchildren all live in the area.

I have an entrepreneurial spirit. I have created and owned numerous businesses ranging from insurance and financial services to designing and building custom homes. I have built homes in Annapolis, Edgewater, Davidsonville, and on the Eastern Shore.

I’ve held numerous professional licenses, but am most proud of my Associate Broker license. Only 1 in 10 Maryland real estate agents have obtained this level of licensure. I also hold the Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist designation (CLHMS) and am a Member of the Million Dollar Guild. I have been my company’s #1 agent six of the last eight years and have been ranked in the “Top 150” by Chesapeake Real Producers Magazine. In other words, I work hard for my clients.

Prior to my real estate career I founded American Business Systems Inc, a payroll and employee benefits firm. ABSI was processing payroll and providing benefits for nearly 400 businesses and their 22,000 employees when I sold the company in 2002.

I have also served on the Board of Directors of my local Chamber of Commerce. As the chair of the Membership Committee I was responsible for a membership of nearly 1,200 businesses.

Many of those business owners became good friends that I am still in touch with today. They are a great source of services for my real estate clients. I attribute much of my success in real estate to my extensive network of professional contacts.

In closing, there are plenty of real estate agents to choose from, but few work harder or smarter for their clients than I do. Please take a moment to read the client references I’ve included with this introduction. They will give you a good idea of who I am and how I work.

Sincerely,

Norm Lee
