Henry was excellent to work with, crisp and timely communicator, knowledgeable and kind. In the end, we decided not to pursue a purchase at this time, but rest assured, when the time comes, we will be calling Henry.
Henry was a pleasure to work with. He takes pride in what he does and truly cares about his clients. He's honest, dependable and dedicated, I give him 10 STARS but it only goes up to 5 stars.
