"Over a period of five months between January and May, Chris Stearns assisted us in the purchase of a property in Gonzalez County with which we are absolutely pleased. Although new to both of us, Chris patiently assisted in the complex legal, regulatory, and time constraints of an IRS 1031 exchange utilizing proceeds from an investment property I had recently sold to purchase a replacement property. We initially contacted Chris on referral from a friend in January 2017, to ask for assistance and over the next four weeks, Chris helped us identify 15-20 different rural properties meeting our requirements. During the first three weeks of February, Chris and I visited about ten properties in five counties driving over 600 miles. He helped us submit two contracts that were not accepted for acreage in Gillespie county and over the next month, he negotiated a rather complicated contract for the Gonzalez County property we finally closed on in May. During this process, Chris researched and answered numerous questions I had regarding the properties and the purchase process as well as a variety of improvements I wanted to do to the properties. Chris was always ready to help us, continually checking in to see how things were going and providing updates. We were thoroughly pleased with his support, background knowledge, and eagerness to assist. Dealing with him on every occasion was a pleasure and we would not hesitate to do so again. Thank you, Chris!"
