Areas of Expertise

A New Hampshire native of 50 years, I have lived in the following towns: Nashua, Hudson, Litchfield, Amherst, Francestown, Dover, Portsmouth.  I have intimate knowledge of many other towns in Southern NH as well, know driving distances, lakes, rivers, recreational pursuits and employment possibilities... I can serve as your guide as you consider this southernmost portion of the State from the Merrimack to the Connecticut rivers.  I work hand in hand with other agents that cover other areas of the State as well.

The elderly is a demographic group of which I am fond and sensitive toward as their family issues surrounding transitions are near to my experience. I have the patience, kindness and hands-on experience to work with them or family caregivers during stressful transitional moves. 

I also gear my business to the wealthy out of state buyer looking to buy in sales tax and income tax free NH.  I understand that time itself may be a limiting factor for this demographic group, so I will get a clear understanding of motivation and intent during a 15-20 minute phone interview and then go and personally tour homes that the buyer has chosen and provide detailed reports via email with photos to the buyer.  Finally a list of 4 or so homes will be arrived at and scheduled for a final viewing at which point the likelihood of a purchase will be quite certain. My life experience has given me plenty of opportunity to work with senior levels of responsibility and management, but also with fathers and mothers whom expect a job well done and some courtesy.  In order to see the merits of this approach please read my testimonials at:

I also very comfortable in imparting my knowledge of  farm and country estate properties.  Those homes have specific issues that sellers need to address and buyers need to watch out for.  I owned a 1790's farmhouse operated as a successful business for years as a niche vacation rental property. I currently rent waterfront vacation property (as a non agent) in the State of Maine.

My Comparative Price analyses are second to none...the pudding is in the detail!

Hoping to become YOUR Realtor!  Cheers!

Testimonials

It is with great satisfaction & gratitude that I write this letter of recommendation for Harold "Buddy' Pope. Only because of his thorough & hard work were we able to find both a home & a location that we had been seeking to meet our objectives in moving from NJ to NH..

We had been looking without success for a home in NH and were rapidly becoming disenchanted with the process, feeling that our buying criteria were not being sufficiently considered.

Through the recommendation of our Realtor in NJ, we were then put in touch with Buddy. From the moment I saw & perused his website at http://www.popesays.com/ I knew that here at last was someone with whom I would like to do business.

After 2 comprehensive telephone conversations, getting to know each other & setting forth our objectives, Buddy went to work - and work he did, in a most comprehensive & professional fashion. By the time we met he had thoroughly researched the area, lined up a complete range of properties to view, analyzed their pros & cons vs. our objectives ,& was then fully prepared to lead us through the viewing process.

It took us just 2 hours to agree that 1 of his prime recommendations was the home for us. Thereafter, he guided us carefully through the negotiation process right up to the final closing. His direction & recommendations were flawless & without his guidance the procedure could not have been completed as smoothly as it was.

For both my wife & I, Buddy was a real pleasure to work with from initial contact through & beyond the closing. Should the need arise we would use him again without hesitation .He is a true professional, hard working, totally dependable, fun to work with & with the experience, confidence & self assurance to meet our needs.

It is with great pleasure & satisfaction that I unequivocally recommend Buddy as a truly unique & exceptionally capable REALTOR.

Dear Buddy,

Saturday, my contractor completed the replacement of weather damaged clapboards above four windows on the Northern side of our home on Fox Den Drive in Hollis.

Well, we owe all this to you. We could not have sold our property, at the right price, without your help from March until now. Your marketing/sales process was integral to the success of the sale of our home. Yes, even your post closing reminders to complete the clapboard repair we committed to do was very professional.

When I look back on your efforts on our behalf in marketing our property I am in awe of your thoroughness and attention to detail. You advised us in March that marketing the property to builders was a time consuming process. We would have to be patient to give you and the builders time to evaluate the property, meet with the town boards, consult with their lawyers, and to do their numbers before making an offer. They would have to see the merits of the undertaking. I was so impressed that you kept turning over every stone of possibility for them to consider.

After meeting the uncertainty of the builders over the development potential of our 21 acres, you suggested a feasibility study by an engineering and surveying company. That data shook out many of the uncertainties. We made pricing adjustments with your council and tested the market at several levels over the next 4-5 months. You were relentless in your postcards and follow-up with every builder in the area. From March to July we made several price reductions. Then, in August, from two price points you had recommended, we made an aggressive price move. We opted for the Estate sales price and an extraordinary family revealed themselves in just three days. You had done it. We were soft-landed into a marketable price we were comfortable with and the buyer was set for a well-timed beginning of Hollis schools. With a quick closing of September 2, 2005 we passed title.

So I return to why I am writing this letter. It is for all those details that you attended to beyond the call of duty. You always put yourself in our place, never pushing your own agenda, just ours.

Thank-you for a job well done.

David Wheeler
