When making a purchase or selling a home or in our case a deceased loved one’s home I would not recommend anyone but Garland Thurman! His experience, professionalism and knowledge is absolutely remarkable! We knew we could trust him from the very first meeting and he earned that trust and kept it throughout the entire process. He worked effortlessly and tirelessly to sell our home fast. I cannot stress enough that experience is what you want when so much is at stake.
Garland has himself a new set of super fans! We could not have been more pleased to work with Garland. He was the only reason this insane process was bearable. We are first time home buyers and he was way on top of the game from the beginning. We also bought remote, which was terrifying us. Garland went above and beyond to make us feel secure in our decision. I will be throwing his name around like confetti to any future friends who need to buy or sell. Thank you so much!

Garland is a pleasure to work with Garland is a pleasure to work with and he went above and beyond helping us navigate the real estate market during this crazy time. There were Saturday evenings and Friday nights he was working to negotiate on our behalf to get the house we wanted or scheduling showings. He never tried to push us into a home that was not our dream home. In fact, there were times in this seller's market that we felt pressure and Garland would remind us we should love the home we are getting. Garland is professional and his professionalism helped us find our dream home in our dream neighborhood. You will be happy to have Garland in your corner!

With my brothers passing in late January, I was asked by my family to serve as his estates personal representative. Of the numerous things to settle the estate, selling his house was one of the biggest tasks to tackle. I contacted our long-time realtor and family friend here in Richmond VA to see if he could point us to someone who could help us out. I say this with all sincerity and heartfelt appreciation that his referral of J Garland Thurman and his team at Kentwood Real Estate was truly a blessing. I don't think I could have found a better team of knowledgable, caring, and hard-working real estate professionals. Their attention to detail, constant communication, caring attitude made my task of selling the house virtually effortless. Garland and his outstanding assistant Angela helped me navigate and coordinate numerous tasks to prepare to sell - it was as if they were right next door to lead me through the steps and ultimately found the best deal possible for my brothers estate. I cannot thank them enough for their personal connection in a difficult time while they flawlessly executed their professional duties. Their dedication to serve their clients is top-shelf and second to none. I cannot find the proper adjectives to add to my recommendation of Garland, Angela, and the entire team at Kentwood. Simply the best I have encountered.

Garland was excellent from start to finish and even after the deal was done.

Garland listed our home in Parker at a price higher than we anticipated after his thorough research of the market. His professionalism and communication is fantastic.Our home sold in approximately 3 weeks which worked perfectly for us. What really worked extremely well for us is the buyer fit our needs perfectly from a timing perspective. We were having a new home built and wanted to make just one move instead of two. Garland worked with the other Realtor representing the buyers and everything worked well for all parties. Thanks Garland for all that you did to make this transaction go smoothly! - Sold a home in Stonegate, Parker, CO 80134.

Garland came highly recommended by a family friend and acted as our buyer's agent in the purchase of our home. As first-time home buyers from out of state, my wife and I were initially worried about everything which could go wrong, but ultimately everything went smoothly (in no small way due to Garland's expertise) and we managed to find what we were looking for at a fair price and within our budget. Garland facilitated and explained the entire process, drove us to multiple listings in different areas, addressed all of our concerns, carefully prepared and read documents, and kept us informed. We would be happy to work with Garland again in the future, and also recommend him to friends and family. Bought a Single Family home in 2017 in Highlands Ranch, CO

Garland came highly recommended through a family member. As first time home buyers, my husband and I were clueless and anxious at the beginning of the process but working with Garland eased our worries. He met with us before we started the process so we would know what to expect and how to get our finances in order. Once we were ready, he was very prepared and took a lot of time to walk through houses and neighborhoods with us. His expertise helped us land the home we wanted! We were one of several offers and not the highest but he had a great relationship with the seller's agent and advocated for us. Thank you for everything Garland, it's been a great year in home, in an amazing neighborhood and we could not have done it without you! - Bought a Single Family home in 2017 in Lakewood, CO. -

We had the providence to have Garland for our realtor when we moved to the Denver area in 1988. He showed us only what we wanted to see, giving us great advice about each house. We were unfamiliar with housing nuances in the Denver area, and Garland was a great help in teaching us the ropes. Because of his very professional and helpful services, we again called upon him when it was time to sell our house and move in late 2012. Again, Garland was very helpful, researching very accurate comparisons and advice on staging the house, and we came up with I believe was a very fair price for the listing. The house sold in one day. The closing process had its challenges due to the buyer's financing experiencing problems, and they had to withdraw the offer. So again, back on the market, and it sold again in one day, this time $1,000 over asking price. A have to give Garland's assistant, Angie, a lot of credit. She was always quick to research and respond to our questions and needs. Many thanks to both Garland Thurman and Angie Willis. Sold a Single Family home in Centennial, CO. - user1767606
Garland had the professional expertise needed to get the job done - that of selling my house in a timely manner. As important, from my perspective, he had the patience to work with me, answer my many questions, encourage me to hang in there and let the process develop. And develop it did, in a shorter time than I expected. The closing was painless, as he had talked me through it beforehand.I have recommended him to friends, and they are very pleased.

I am from California and came looking for a home in July over the 4th holiday. He was referred to me by my agent that sold my home in California. He showed me around the houses I had found on the internet. Also he asked my what i was looking for and from the description of what i wanted in a home/land he suggested area's that i had not consider. His knowledge of the real estate in the area was extensive. The home I purchased was not on my list though i had looked in the area and was not impressed with the houses I found. He found the home and it turned out to be the best one. We started the process (I was in California) and he had all the inspectors and people needed to get the job done. It was not easy but he always was available day or night and was helpful explaining the difference between a Califorina and a Colorado escrow. He seemed to always want me to be satisfied with my purchase and not pressure me into buying something i did not want. Bought a home Littleton, CO 80125. - user71624721
Garland was Amazing to work with. He was really working to get us what we wanted, the area and price range.
