Dear Homebuyer, I'm pleased to recommend Mr. Anthony (Tony) Maglio as your buyer's agent as you search for a home in the Las Vegas area. Tony exhibited patience, diligence and unwavering professionalism during what turned out to be a year-long relocation process from the Washington, DC area. I first met Tony during an open house he was conducting over Labor Day weekend of 2015. It was my first trip to Las Vegas to explore the housing market and I visited nearly 20 open houses that weekend as a way to meet local realtors and identify one who was a good fit for my needs and timeframe. Because I was not looking to buy immediately, most of the realtors I met never even followed up. Tony was one of four realtors who did and he created an MLS search that began emailing potential matches to me. I returned to Las Vegas in November 2015 and, even knowing that I was not yet ready to buy, Tony spent an entire day taking me around to visit homes that matched my criteria and giving me a good general education about the Las Vegas market. He did the same for me again in March 2016 when I visited for the Las Vegas 7s rugby tournament. When I was finally in a position to make an offer in July 2016, Tony again took me around to visit available homes that met my needs. We identified one we liked and put together an offer. Unfortunately, the listing agent's communication with us was less than professional and the house ultimately went to another buyer. As disappointed as I was, I think Tony was disappointed even more given how dedicated he was to seeing me get the house. I did finally move to Las Vegas in October 2016, but had to rent a guest room from a local friend upon arriving. Tony made it a priority to restart my housing search and within a week we found and made an offer on a great home in the northwest part of town. He worked with the selling agent to modify the offer to the satisfaction of both parties and we closed escrow just before Thanksgiving. Your homebuying experience may not last 12-14 months like mine did, but however long it does last, Tony will stick with you and always have your needs and best interests in mind. When I think back on some of the other agents I interacted with during search process, I realize how fortunate I was to meet Tony and to benefit from his diligence, knowledge and professionalism. I hope you will give him the same chance to serve you during your search. Best wishes in finding your new home!
