Testimonials
It was indeed an immense pleasure working with Dustin during the sales process of my property.
Dustin is a master of his craft and a great credit to Whitetail Properties and the entire Real Estate business. He is a thorough, professional, energetic, agent who goes above and beyond all expectations. He has absolutely superior marketing skills. Also, and of utmost importance, he is a great communicator. He kept me informed and up-to-date in all phases of this real estate sales process. These are not empty words of praise. The facts back them up. I listed my property with Dustin in late November of 2020, between Thanksgiving and Christmas. That is a terrible time to try to sell any form of real estate. Not only is it the Holiday Season, but also northeastern PA can be a cold, dreary, and snowy place that time of year. It is especially not a good time to be selling vacant recreational property. However, Dustin never hesitated to rise to the challenge.
My property officially went on the market on December the 5th of 2020, and I had a signed sales contract, on the 9th of February 2021. So, from start to finish, at the worst time of the year, and in spite of the weather, Dustin wrapped up the deal with a fantastic price in just 66 days! That is a remarkable feat indeed.Whitetail Properties and Dustin Palelski have my utmost gratitude and appreciation for a fantastic, “job well done” and in a very, very short time.
I would be happy to, and will recommend them to anyone who has property for sale anywhere. In fact, I plan to enlist Dustin’s help with another venture in the near future.
