Ray Boss was an absolute pro to work with and treats everybody fairly while representing his clients' best interests.He took the time to help my husband and me submit an unconventional offer on a home that he was listing because we're not working with an agent. The property had multiple offers within a couple days of going live on the market, and we've met some agents who would not have bothered to help us put in an offer, but he went above and beyond to make sure his sellers saw all the options so they could get the best deal possible.Communications were clear, quick and full of integrity. Highly recommend.

Ray Boss - where to start? He stands out for a multitude of reasons, but the biggest we've found are:- His insanely deep knowledge of all things housing gleaned from many, many years of experience. Ray would pick out all the things that were great or troublesome about a house that we completely missed and then point out exactly how that would impact us as homeowners.- His fantastic network of referrals for services such as inspection, lending, and title sales. There's an unbeatable synergy you get when tapping his network that allows you to move confidently and quickly.- His master-level interpersonal skills. We're certain that we would not have gotten our offer accepted without Ray's expert-level presentation and negotiation. Ray made sure that our offer was packaged as a quick, clean, no-drama transaction - and that's exactly how it unfolded.We're grateful to have been referred to Ray and cannot overstate uniquely excellent he is at his job. We would, and have recommended Ray to our own family and friends.

Ray represented us as buyers during our relocation to Frederick—during the mother of all seller’s markets. He wasn’t intimidated by the odds and was honest with us from the outset about what the process could look like. His ability to set clear expectations up front helped us refine our strategy and remain patient for the right one to come along. Once it did, he expertly guided us on how to present the strongest offer in a competitive situation without overpaying. From cradle to grave, Ray made the buying process run smoothly (and even fun). He took the time to really understand our priorities, was very accessible and responsive throughout the entire process, and most importantly always operated with integrity and a sense of humor. Ray is a class act and we’re so happy to have partnered with him!

Best realtor and experience we could’ve hoped for!Despite the insane market of 2020-2021, Ray was always responsive and patient with our endless questions — putting in every ounce of work on nights and weekends when needed to keep us on track. He was with us every step - dishing out sage advice, and constantly helping us address our priorities while matching them to what the market could offer. Always searching for new opportunities to get us what we were looking for, it helped that he’s a fun person to be around. He’s earned our absolute trust and we wouldn’t want to buy or sell property in Maryland with anyone but him. You can’t do better.

Not too long ago I used Ray to both find me a new home as well as listing my old one. Ray went above and beyond to help me find just the right house. My search started out very broad covering almost all of MoCo and downtown Frederick. He helped me zero in on areas that fit my criteria. When it came time to list my old place he had suggestions for a contractor to help re-paint and spruce up the place. He suggested a stager and a photographer that made my old place look and feel great. Ray was always very professional and took his time helping me understand the mountains of paperwork that came my way. I could tell he cared about me and my search process, I wasn’t ‘just another sale’. I would definitely recommend Ray to friends if I know they were looking to buy or sell.

Ray is among the best! He took the time to understand my priorities and offered patient guidance that was invaluable as a first time homebuyer. Ray's priority was for me to have all the information I needed to be confident in my decisions. From start to finish, Ray was professional, trustworthy, reliable, and responsive. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

My family and I worked with Ray as both buyers and sellers, and he is second-to-none. He takes the time to understand goals and objectives and comes up with a plan of action that, if you trust the process, will work seamlessly. He is also quite talented at talking over-anxious individuals off ledges during highly stressful times. We would work with Ray again in a heartbeat and recommend him without hesitation to everyone who's looking for a compassionate, professional, knowledgeable, and good looking real estate expert.

Ray was a pleasure to work with. I especially appreciated his honesty, integrity, and professionalism. Our best interest was at the forefront of every suggestion he made. I will hands down use Ray for all my real estate transactions moving forward!

Ray is one of the best agents you could find. He is very knowledgeable, he cares that your needs are met and most importantly to me he does not push you or pressure you. Buying a house is the biggest purchase we make in life, the last thing you need is a pushy realtor and Ray absolutely understands this. Ray helped us sell our townhouse and later find our dream house. We both highly recommend Ray.

Where do we start? Ray represented us as buyers on a new development in Frederick. We had interviewed a dozen or so agents who “pitched” us on emotions, how this is a big financial decision, how they'll look out for our best interests etc... All the usual propaganda I think most buyers would hear.With the exception of Ray Boss, not one prospective agent asked us what our own goals were now and in the future, what our objectives were for this purchase, and what things were important to us as buyers at this point in time.Want to know what options or builder add-ons will get you the most value on your home? Ray was the only one who could advise me. Want to know about other developments or projects nearby that could potentially affect our new home's value? Ray knew the answer. Ray knew the hard facts that clearly a professional researches in order to best represent their clients’ interests and for us, our own personal investment.Closing time was nothing short of stressful for us, as we were trying to squeeze in a year end closing. Ray consistently remained even-keeled and got things done. His communication is excellent and responsive. He is a tried and true professional that goes beyond the call of duty.

We've used Ray to sell our home and to buy a new home - the full experience of Ray Boss as a Realtor! If there were 10 stars available for this review, I'd choose all of them. Ray is committed to you and will look out for your best interests throughout the entire process. He is honest, transparent, knowledgeable, and even manages to bring some humor into the process (even though its likely one of the most stressful times of your life!). He got us top dollar for our sale (told us exactly what we needed to prep for sale, even if its not what we wanted to hear - and he was right!) and he negotiated a great deal on our purchase. I'd recommend him every day of the week!

Having moved from another state not knowing the area, Ray worked with me for over a year to choose the best community & home that fit my budget & style. He is very knowledgeable, always professional, which made it easy for me to trust him. I appreciated his patience with me. As my advocate, he demonstrated proficiency throughout the entire process. I am happy in my new home. I highly recommend Ray Boss’s Service.

Ray not only helped us sell a home but also assisted us in purchasing a home. The home he sold for us was for more than going rate in our neighborhood. Ray asked us to do improvements which assisted in increased value. House sold fast at full listed price. With Ray's expertise in purchasing a home, we could not have been more happy that we had Ray. He was extremely knowledgeable in purchasing a foreclosure from Fannie Mae. This purchase was extremely complex and so many moving parts. That said, we came out of it with the house of our dreams. We could not be more thankful for Ray's professionalism and guidance. Thank you Ray!!
