Selling our beach house was bittersweet, but having Cal Harrelson as our agent made it special. Cal truly is a wonderful person and a gem of an agent!Cal's obvious passion and excitement he demonstrates is infectious and appreciated. We experienced this eagerness and his professionalism from the beginning, that continued throughout this entire business process. It started upon receiving a personal video from Cal that he made, speaking to us while standing in front of our beach house after he had just placed the sale sign and relayed our process had begun. The energy and joy he showed was undeniably felt. Cal wasted no time in listing our house for sale and then immediately jumped into the action of marketing, using some creative and fun methods. It took very little time to attract interested buyers and before long we had a very satisfying contract offer. Cal consistently and promptly kept us informed and updated throughout this entire process via emails, texts and phone calls. He was always available to us and took time to answer any questions/concerns we had in a sincere and caring manner.Cal definitely made the selling of our property effortless and a gratifying experience. We highly recommend Cal Harrelson to anyone looking to sell their property/house and we believe many other people will absolutely benefit from the "very real enthusiasm" Cal has for his clients and profession.Sarena and Doug Graczyk

Cal was the agent involved when my parents first bought this house back in the 90s. We remembered this experience fondly and asked him to sell it for us 25 years later. It was very meaningful for us to have it come full circle. We wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. He was enthusiastic, informative, communicated every detail with us and facilitated all aspects of the closing process. You will not be disappointed. He is the best and makes you feel like a longtime friend. We were so fortunate to contact him and have him handle our house once again. Many thanks Cal!
