Tapestry is a fantastic neighborhood (I may be a bit biasedWhy I Chose To Live In Tapestry in Holland PA, A Bucks County Realtor Tells His Story) located off of Middle Holland Rd. across from the Rolling Hills Elementary School in Hollandin Northampton, PA. Calton Homes began building the first phase in the early to mid 1980's which was called Penn's Court.

Last month I helped a mother & her daughter find a great home in Hillcrestshire in Holland, PA. Here's what they thought about working with me:

"Dale Cosack was always there when we needed him, but never badgered or pressured us. He exceeded our expectations when it came to explaining the home buying process, his knowledge of the real estate market, and his ability to negotiate and manage our purchase through settlement. He was always dedicated to serving our best interest, offered timely & effective communication & assisted us in finding a mortgage lender & title co. with that same dedication. His sincerity & trustworthiness are two great qualities of his and we will definitely recommend him to our friends & family."

Helping buyers find their new home is always a joy as it is such an exciting time in their lives. I know it can also be scary, but by finding a great Realtor you can minimize the stress and focus on the new journey you are taking.
