Peter and Gretchen were phenomenal, and we are so grateful for all they did to help us with our move to State College. This particular move was the most complex family situation and timing we have ever experienced, and yet it was the absolute best experience we have ever had with a realtor. The care and attention and responsiveness was nothing short of outstanding and they treated us like their very own family every step of the way. We felt so supported and loved which was so encouraging as we start our next chapter.
Peter and his team worked tirelessly to help us find our home and we couldn't be happier! They were always happy to show us homes that came on the market and kept an eye out for anything they thought we would be interested in. Peter and his team are knowledgeable and were really looking out for us as clients. Great experience from start to finish!

Peter and team were outstanding in helping us find our home. We got honest opinions on homes which really helped us weed out those that looked great online vs. those in real life. Peter and Gretchen did a great job running us through the homes we toured. Peter excelled during the negotiation phase when we found our perfect home. The team made the rest of the buying process and smooth all the way through closing. Peter and Gretchen helped connect us to local contractors so we could make minor repairs and upgrades right after we closed. Cannot recommend Peter and his team enough!
We had a great experience working with Peter. He was professional, patient, responsive, and very helpful throughout the entire home-buying process. He always answered our questions clearly and made the process much easier for us. We really appreciate all of his help and would definitely recommend him to others.

We worked with Krissy Bonson and she was great. She answer all questions 7days a week and was always available She helped get the price that we needed. I will definitely use her services in the future and we highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of a great realtor
Gretchen Knipe was incredible to work with in selling our home. After a setback with the first potential buyer, she artfully helped us to retool our plan and successfully negotiated on our behalf with the second buyer. All the while, she was compassionate, upbeat, determined, kind-hearted, and professional. Gretchen was our friend before she became our realtor, and we wondered how that would work out, but she rose to the occasion and never blurred the line. In the end, she patiently and carefully helped us sell a house we loved in favor of buying our forever home, and she was always helpful but never pushy, answering difficult questions that we posed to her with aplomb. She was nimble, creative, and even fun to work with. Highly recommended, indeed!
Peter was wonderful to work with. He and his whole team kept me informed about everything that was happening throughout the sale. He also was very reassuring about the sale of my house since I needed help selling it quickly. He delivered on all of his promises too and house was sold very quickly. I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate him and his team and would recommend him and his team to everyone I know.
