Dear Jim Gross:Im writing to express my gratitude for all the time and attention youve offered me on my search to find my first home. As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of concerns, uncertainties and fears. With such a task to be accomplished, I needed more than a business person, I needed a business person who I could trust.Since the first time we met, you provided me a well-structured guide as to what to expect through the process. When the search began, I was glad to be able to rely on your expertise and honesty. It gave me the confidence that I was lacking at the beginning of the process and I knew that at the end what I chose was going to be a fair buy. I never imagined that the search for my home was going to turn into a journey that required so much time and energy. I was very fortunate to be able to work with you and I thank you for all the time you took to provide me with your guidance. It made the process much easier that I thought it was going to be.After all the efforts I am happy to say that there was a happy ending. With your help, I accomplished one of my dreams. A place that I can call home. Thank you for being there to answer all my questions and concerns at all times. I will always be grateful for all your effort and also, thank you for being part of my journey that is now part of my life history. Zuleika Marrero-Febus
- Zuleika Marrero-Febus Williamsport MDWe would like to express our great pleasure in dealing with Jim Gross Broker of Absolute Real Estate. He was very professional from our very first meeting through settlement day. Explaining every step along the way and making sure we understood every detail. Offered suggestions if something improved the selling of our mothers home and arranged for the work to be completed. Mothers home sold fast, within the time frame he mentioned and she received a very fair price for her home. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering selling their home or interested in buying.The Family of Rachael V. Bowers
- The Family of Rachel V Bowers Hagerstown MDI was relocating to a new state due to my job and we needed to sell our house quickly. Jim put it on the market and we had a contract on it in 10 days. After the home inspection, we found out a few things needed to be fixed and Jim took care of contacting the appropriate contractors and setting up appointments for each issue. I appreciated that we did not have to deal with setting this up because during this entire process I had already left for my new job and my wife was on her own. In addition, I got my asking price (other realtors I interviewed wanted to sell it for $40,000 less!). Jim went above and beyond to ensure a smooth sale of our home. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing to sell their home. Rob Nash
- Rob Nash Hagerstown MDJim is very knowledgeable. He will follow up to make sure all is on track at each step of the way. Thanks for your help Jim!!!Christina Ocharzak
- Christina Ocharzak Clear Spring MDWe have known Jim for 10 years or so and he is by far one of the nicest people we have ever had the pleasure to know and work with. As a real estate professional, I highly recommend his services. When we were ready to list our home in Smithsburg MD., it was a no brainer to have Jim list it. He gave us great advice on prepping the house for show, and was very aggressive listing and working with agents to get the best offer possible. For the best service possible, list with Jim!

- Bryan Lynch Hagerstown MDHome BuyerJim is an excellent agent, he stayed with my husband and I through quite a few home tours. In the end he found us the dream home that we never thought we would get. Thank you!Jackolyn Spong
- Jackolyn Spong Williamsport MDSatisfiedThroughout my experience with Jim he has always immediately answered any questions honestly and efficiently. He assisted me with the sale of two properties in a very timely manner with little to no problems.Vicki Martel
- Vicky Martel Abingdon MDExcellent Home Buying ExperienceI made a decision to get back into owning my own home. I have owned several homes in the past so I was not a novice regarding the overall process. I found Jim to be one of the finest agents that I have worked with. If you want an agent with a fancy office, expensive conference rooms and you are being driven around in a Cadillac Escalade then Jim is not for you. If you want an agent who truly cares about you, your family needs, will work relentlessly on your behalf to find the home of your dreams and someone who wont push you into something youre not completely satisfied with, then Jim is the perfect agent for you. Even when I thought I found the home I had been looking for and actually began negotiations, Jim never stopped showing me houses. As Jim likes to say, "Its always good to have a back-up plan" and let me tell you he was right. Not only did the negotiations fall apart, but Jim found a home for me that the minute I walked in it I said, "this is it, this is my dream home". One week later my offer was accepted and I have been living in my dream home for almost a year now and I am loving every minute. Not only will I use Jim again, but I would highly recommend Jim to anyone who is buying a home, regardless if it is your first time or you 10th time buying a home. Jim is truly that good.Robert J Moran Jr
- Robert J Moran Jr Hagerstown MDJim was excellent at guiding me through the home buying process.Jims experience with first time homebuyers was extremely helpful.

- Charles King Williamsport MDJim was great, he is always willing to help and gets the job done.Ive known Jim for about ten years and when I decided to look for a house i let him know.

He explained everything I needed to know and was great through the whole process. He knows how to get things done and will do what it takes to make sure his customer is satisfied! If anyone is in the market for a house I would talk to Jim first.Justin

- David Smith FloridaEnergetic, knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole experience very easy and painless.Jim helped us buy and sell our 1 st home and made the experience as first time home buyers a great one! When it came time to sell the 1st place 7 yrs later we turned to Jim and he was very positive and patient. Given that we were trying to sell in the middle of a recession this was important. After selling the 1st place he helped us find our new house that we love and plan to live in for a long time. Id highly recommend Jim to anyone on the house hunt.Sarah Corder-Smith

His knowledge in the market and the way he lays out the market to us is unmatched. I feel comfortable in putting my real estate needs in the hands of Jim. I will be recommending to anyone I know looking for a home.Tracey Moss
- Tracey Moss Hagerstown MDBest Real Estate Agent, Hands Down! Jim has been a God send to us. When we first moved to MD we turned to one of the more popular agencies all over the tri-state area. We worked with two agents from the same agency, one in WV and the other in MD. Our agent in MD was a bit pushy and seemingly put-off by our smaller budget and lack of enthusiasm in her choices of available properties she wanted us to drive miles just to look at. I felt like she didnt think our price range was worth her going to much effort for us. Ultimately, her tactics to just "get us in" a place were in favor of the seller (!), so we ended our business relationship. Our agent in WV with the same company was no better. We ended up having to do our own appraisal on a property we wanted to put an offer on (after a huge botch job by her severely underestimating another propertys value wed had hopes for), due to the property being listed by, of course, the same agency. I began to realize this very popular agency was like McDonalds - too many for our own good and not much in the way of quality. When I found Jim, I was at my wits end. I knew as soon as I spoke with him, however, that he was different. He immediately understood what my husband and I were looking for, what our price range was, etc. He NEVER made me feel like we werent worth the effort, he ALWAYS looked out for our best interests, he NEVER made us drive miles and miles just to look at a place before we asked him to meet us there so we could go inside! He did the preliminary "looking" himself, keeping all of our criteria in mind. He was fantastic!With Jims help and expertise, we quickly settled on our first home. He helped us every step of the way, was always kind, experienced, professional, and on top of every detail with great precision! When we decided to move some years later, Jim was our "go-to" guy, bar-none. Again, he helped us every step of the way, was patient, helped us sell our house during the downturn of the economy and went above and beyond an agents responsibilities to his clients to see that we did well in both selling our old home and buying our new one this past 2010.My husband and I cannot thank Jim Gross enough for his dedication, his hard work, his honesty, his integrity, his expertise. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking help in real estate. Hes the BEST!Mrs. Ellis
- Mrs Ellis Hagerstown MDA pleasant and wonderful experience with Jim.Jim is an excellent agent and was very helpful with giving us information about Hagerstown as well as supplying us with contacts for the utilities and other services needed. He is very professional and it was great doing business with him. I recommend him highly. Went out of his way to find us exactly the home we wanted.Jurgen and Heidi Strobel
