Testimonials
"After talking with two other REALTORS, Lee Forbes was the first to listen to what we were looking for, was considerate of our "spendable" monies, and showed us the properties we wanted to see. I commend Lee Forbes highly for his excellent communication and listening abilities and his follow through. I recommend Lee to all my relatives and friends."
Peter & Kathy Tortolano Sat Jul 1, 2006
"Lee Forbes met our Family at the Hotel the afternoon we flew in from out of state for what we thought would be a stressful four day house hunting trip. Lee Forbes was always "low key" and calm; never pressuring us, but rather, actually made us comfortable with the whole process. We enjoyed his knowledge and professionalism when he "went to bat for us" at the last minute to dispute extra costs that arose just before closing. Great job from start to finish!"
Kim & Sally Schoeffel Wed May 24, 2006
"After six weeks of searching for "the right house" with a different REALTOR, my wife happened across Lee Forbes' website and contacted Lee Forbes. In less than 24 hours, Lee Forbes had selected 20 homes to show us that matched our criteria. Our first time out with Lee Forbes we found the home we wanted, wrote the offer, and are now happily settling in. Lee Forbes was with us every step of the way, promptly answering calls and the questions we had. Then there was the bonus of the FREE moving truck that saved us hundreds of dollars!! We could not be more satisfied with the service we received."

Jim, Real Estate Pro in Elmhurst, IL

Bradenton, Fl The Inlets- What's the difference between the freshwater vs the saltwater access homes?

Asked Fri Apr 24 2009, 08:14 by Jim  -  Home Buying in Bradenton  -  3 answers
Lee Forbes PA answered:
It's better for your boat to keep it in fresh water than the salt due to the critters that grow on the hul. No stinky mud either when the tides change. There are limits to the boat you can take through the lift as a penalty though...
Below is a link to all the listings in the inlets. Updates nightly so save the link!!

Jg, Home Buyer in Bradenton, FL

Why is this so cheap? Is the neighborhood that bad?

Asked Mon Apr 20 2009, 05:28 by Jg  -  Property Q&A in Bradenton  -  1 answer
Lee Forbes PA answered:
The home is not for sale for that amount. RealtyTrac posts homes where the les pendance of foreclosure lawsuit has been filed, not foreclosed home for sale. This could easily just be the second mortgage on the home. If you want to look a foreclosed homes you can buy, try my free site below to search by county for property that is bank owned.
