John Allen is Accessible, Organized and Precise
It has been my pleasure to work on this
project especially after we found the house ( I
am more involved after that point). Thank you for
being very supportive and being always there for
us when I was making those aggressive offers. I
am very happy that I did not have to negotiate
with you first for what to put into the offer and
I guess it paid off. Also thank you for being accessible,
organized (a virtue I am lacking so it helped me
a lot) and precise all the time. I appreciated
the openness and honesty.
Thanks,
Omar

"I will tell you this, if I come across ANYONE in need of an agent to
buy/sell, or anything concerning houses. I will definitely send them your way.
I can’t thank you enough for all of your support on this issue. I have
not met a more thorough, professional agent in the last two years being involved
in real estate. I wish I had known you when buying my primary house last year." (Anthony

Thanks to Beth Ann, everyday that I pull into my
drive way I get a big smile across my face!
Hi Beth Ann:
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you so
much for all your help in finding my new home.
I love the location, my neighbors are wonderful
and everyday that I pull into my drive way I get
a big smile across my face. I still can't believe
that you were able to find exactly what I wanted,
where I wanted it and even in the price range I
was looking for.
You were so patient and thorough from beginning
to end and I greatly appreciate everything you
did! In addition, all of the resources you provided
me were great. The inspector and handy man were
both delightful, which made the entire process
so much easier and enjoyable. I will be utilizing
their services in the future, too.
Lastly, I will absolutely be referring to you
anyone I know who is looking for a new home. You
made my second experience of buying a home so easy
and fun. I hope to keep in touch with you and if
I ever decide to move, you'll be the one I call.
Sincerely-
Ginny Brown
Dear Beth Ann,
Once again I wished to extend to you our heartfelt
thanks over finding our new home. You have been
a geat support to us during a stressful time and
you came to bat for us when we needed you. Thank
you for the kind gifts as well, we will put them
to good use.
Sincerely

BETH ANN CLANIN
I worked with Bo Bridgeport Brokers Beth Ann Clanin
and David Warren on the Sale of my home and simply
do not have enough good things to say about them.
What a Team! As an out of town seller I was already
a little anxious about managing the selling process
from a distance. Beth Ann was great at anticipating
my needs and concerns and talking me through
any and every part of the process. She kept me
calm when I was stressed and was patient with
all my questions. David brought a lot of energy
to my home sale and had a great eye helping me
to understand they ways in which I could get
the most for my home. In fact I did wind up getting
more than I asked for.
Both David and Beth Ann went above and beyond the
call of duty for me and I would highly recommend
them to anyone even thinking about selling their
home. I know that if and when I return to Atlanta,
I will be calling them to help me find my new home.

Dear Beth Ann-
Your unwavering attention to detail and your impeccable
follow-through helped enable us to buy - and
ultimately brag about - our new bungalow in East
Lake. To say we're thrilled with our home would
be an understatement. And to admit the new construction
home buing process was essentially pain free,
well, that's down right unfathomable. But it's
true. Largely because of you.
So, thank you Beth Ann,

Beth Ann-
My husband was driving around looking at houses
and noticed a home he was interested in listed
with BoBridgeport and called Beth Ann who was the
agent. She gave him the imformation he needed and
went the extra mile to tell him about other homes.
Over the next few months Beth Ann became our realtor
to sell our home since it had not sold with the
previous realtor and was effective in selling our
home. She worked very hard to make sure we got
the money we wanted for our home and negotiated
with the buyer.
Beth Ann then showed us all of the homes we requested
to see to purchase. She was always very patient
and accommodating. When it came time to place a
contract on the home we liked Beth Ann again handled
all of the negotiating and left us hassle free
at a stressful time of buying a home.
Beth Ann was always knowledgeable and professional
at all times. She was positive and would never
give up on finding a buyer for our old home or
finding the home we wanted. She could be reached
at any time and returned all phone calls promptly.
Beth Ann was a joy to work with and I would recommend
her to anyone who is selling or looking to buy
a home. You will be pleased with the outcome and
not be disappointed. I feel we have a lifetime
realtor with Beth Ann.

Yes, that’s our house in Atlanta Magazine Beth Ann!
Your unwavering attention to detail and your impeccable

And to admit that the new construction home buying
process was essentially pain free, well, that’s
down right unfathomable. But it’s true. Largely
because of you. So thank you.

I would like to take the time to commend
an agent that represents your office, Holly
Bisig.
I have had the pleasure of working with her, assisting
a family that is relocating from South Carolina
to Atlanta. Out of my 23 years in mortgage banking,
I have never had the pleasure of working with an
individual that is as hard-working, caring and
truly keeping the customer’s best interest
in mind.
Holly has spent countless hours securing
the best possible financing for our mutual client.
The developer/builder did not want to allow both
the DCA Affordable Housing Program and Federal
Home Loan Bank Downpayment Assistance to be used
and would not accept the contract as it was presented.
Holly fought for the clients so that the loan would
not have to be directed to the preferred lender
with less attractive financing and ultimately,
the borrowers did not have to give up grant funds
of approximately $20,000, which made a significant
difference in qualifying as well as monthly payment.
She is certainly one in a million and she is exactly
the quality of agent I wish to continue doing business
with. I know with her profession drive and positive
attitude, she will make a tremendous impact on
the success of your company.

Bisig
I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for
the outstanding level of service I have received
from Holly Bisig.
In searching for a new home in Metro Atlanta,
I came across The Preserve East Atlanta neighborhood.
On my first visit to The Preserve, I knew this
was where I wanted to live!
Although I was excited and nervous to start the
home buying process, I found a true partner in
Holly Bisig. From my very first visit to the Sales
Office, Holly provided a warm and hospitable charm
that’s uncommon in today’s competitive
housing market. I would have never guessed that
she had been in the office all day servicing a
multitude of prospective buyers. She made me feel
like I was the first prospective buyer of the day
and she was eager to show off this great community.
Holly provided a wealth of information, not only
about The Preserve community, but also about the
surrounding neighborhoods. However, what impressed
me most was her commitment to provide fair, honest,
and accurate information whenever questions were
raised.
Holly Bisig truly embodies the values and vision
of Bo Bridgeport Brokers. She has truly made my
buying process more palatable for a number of reasons.
You truly have a gem in Holly Bisig.
A Well Satisfied Customer,

To Whom it May Concern -
We recently purchased
our first home with the help of Ken Malone and
Bo Bridgeport. We could not have asked for a better,
more knowledgeable, helpful, and genuine person
to help us through this potentially stressful and
scary time than Ken. Ken made us feel less like
we were clients and much more like we were friends
that he sincreley hoped would find a wonderful
home. We feel EXTREMELY fortunate that we found
him and enthusiastically recommend him to anyone
and everyone that asks us about our buying experience.
Ken went out of his way to make sure that we ended
up in the absolute perfect house for us (although
he constantly reminded us that no house will ever
be perfect -- the one he helped us find is just
that -- perfect for us.) He was able to gain a
strong sense of us from our meetings and communications
and used this intuition and sense to help guide
us to neighborhoods and properties that were uniquely
appropriate for us and our situation. Ken even
went out of his way to give us extra information
about the neighborhoods that we were interested
that was invaluable in making our final decision.
Working with Ken made the entire process of buying
our first home completely stress free and seamless,
thinking of every last detail to help us along
the way. Ken communicated with us every step of
the way about what to expect, what was happening,
and answered all questions that we could think
of. When closing approached he made sure that we
had information about moving, utilities, and all
other important contacts that were invaluable to
have provided for us -- it certainly saved us ALOT
of time when we had more important things to do
and to think about. Ken was even extremely flexible,
as we were unsure whether or not my fiancee would
be able to be in town for the closing until only
a few days before.
I can't say enough about Ken
and about Bo Bridgeport Brokers in general. The
seller's agent, Sally Alcock was also from Bo Bridgeport
and her interactions and work with Ken was seamless
in helping us before and during our purchase and
move. I would never hesitate to recommend Ken to
any friends, relatives, or acquantainces.
Thanks
for your time,
Rebecca Seaman (and Jeffrey Roffman)
First Time Home Buying Made Easy by Ken Malone
As first time homebuyers we really had no idea
what to expect from the process. What we did know
was that no one could make this a better experience
for us than Ken. Throughout the 45 days of our
experience, Ken was our star advocate. He built
a wonderful relationship with our builder that
continues to this day and all of our meetings were
pre-scheduled on a calendar that he provided within
the first week of our working with him. Ken conducted
himself with the utmost professionalism, he anticipated
our needs before we knew what they were and made
sure that everything was handled appropriately.
Our house is the best thing that we've ever done,
and it would not have been possible without Ken
and Bo Bridgeport Brokers. Thank You!

Ken was absolutely the best!
I
would like to take this opportunity to let you
know how pleased I was with Ken Malone and Bo
Bridgeport Brokers. Ken was absolutely the best.
Due to my very busy schedule, he met a couple
of different people to let them in the house
so they could give me a quote. Ken was very
knowledgeable and able to give good sound advice.
Ken did his homework and we put in an offer
on the house I really wanted and the offer was
accepted. I have now moved into my new home
and I love it. Again, I just want to let you
know what a great person you have in Ken Malone
who is representing The Bo Bridgeport Brokers.
Thank you Ken and Bo Bridgeport Brokers, Britt
Bishop
Ken Malone provides excellent service for cross-country
moves and high-maintenance clients!
"I recently decided to relocate from Houston
to Atlanta and was referred to Ken through a
friend of a friend. I was a little nervous about
working with a “stranger” in an unfamiliar
city. However, Ken quickly demonstrated
that I had nothing to worry about. At
our initial meeting, he walked in with a notebook
containing:
- A summary table of properties we would be
visiting (noting key characteristics and including
his thoughts about each property)
- Copies of the MLS pages for each of the
properties
- A map indicating the location of each of
the property
- A document outlining commitments from him
regarding the services he would provide
All based on the property requirements I had
shared via earlier email conversations. Ahhh,
a beautiful sight for a self-described high-maintenance
client like myself!
Throughout the process Ken provided all the
services you would expect from a real estate
agent. However,
what sets Ken apart is that he strives to make “above
and beyond” his service standard. Examples
of this include:
- Pre-viewing properties in order to prioritize
and make the most efficient use of my limited
visits
- Doing additional research and making calls
to get “behind the scenes” information
on properties (HOA performance, square footage
per tax records, anticipated assessments,
etc)
- Acting on my behalf with service providers
after closing prior to my physical move
In the end, Ken located and skillfully negotiated
the purchase of my beautiful 1960’s condo
conversion near Emory/CDC. I was more than
happy with the service he provided and wouldn’t
hesitate to recommend him!"

Dear Mr. Malone:
I wanted to take time out of my extremely busy
schedule to thank you for your professionalism,
dedication, and hard work as my Real Estate Agent

As you know, selling a home is a very stressful
situation. You handled everything beautifully.
You were professional and utilized your knowledge
of the market to negotiate and work through the
entire process. I felt that you had my interests
in mind at all times which were critical during
this hectic time.
Thanks again for your hard work and a job well
done. I could not be more pleased with the outcome
of my home sale!
Warmest regards,

Rhonda Mayfield,
Thank you is not a strong enough word to display
our gratitude for the way you aided us in finding
our first home. From our first drive around Snellville
until we signed our names on the dotted line you
were nothing but professional and organized. Knowing
that you are a reflection of your office, Bo Bridgeport
Brokers should be very proud to have an agent as
thoughtful and diligent as you. Everyone should
have the benefit of having such great help in purchasing
their first home, or any home for that matter.
Whether it was a question about the contracts,
information on a home, or encouragement to "hang
in there" you made yourself available and
helpful. Grahams Port Lane is perfect for us, and
we thank you for helping us get there!
Bests,
Terri & Brandon Durham
Rhonda,
Thank you just does not seem to show how much
gratitude and appreciation I have for you and all
of your hard work in helping me with the purchase
of my home in Snellville. This had to have been
one of the most tumultuous experiences for you,
but you hung in there like the champ that you are.
Bo Bridgeport should be proud to have an agent
with as much determination and dedication as you.
I will gladly use you and your services for any
of my real estate needs in the future. Keep up
the phenomenal work!

Bo Bridgeport Ended My Home Buying Frustrations!
Jacqueline
had been looking for a home for weeks spending
a lot of time lost in the neighborhood with an
uninformed agent. I finally became so frustrated
trying to find a home in the neighborhood where
I wanted to live that I was ready to give up. Then
I saw an ad for Bo Bridgeport and gave them a call.
It was on a Saturday morning and they met with
me the same day to give me a tour of the neighborhood
and find a home that would meet my needs and my
budget. They made the home buying process painless
and swift for me, at a time when I had almost given
up. Now, I am living in the home of my dreams.

Xin Wei and Rosanna, Bo Bridgeport provided
us solid, well-informed and cheerful support.
Benita and Janie made us feel welcome right away
in Kirkwood. Janie and Benita provided us solid,
well-informed and cheerful support as we went through
our first house-hunting experience. We're quite
happy settling into our new neighborhood with our
son.
Beth Bond, Buying My First Home Was A Breeze!
When looking for my first home, Janie and Benita
were the best. From the quick response from the
initial e-mail I sent about the house to protecting
my interests in the negotiation process, Janie
and Benita were with me every step of the way.
They were available regardless of time or my less
than educated questions. In the end it was amazing
how fast the process took and it never would have
happened without them.
Thanks again Janie and Benita!
