We met Gordon at an open house and he seemed very knowledgeable about the area. He also seemed trustworthy and had our best interests at heart. He was very patient with us while we searched the area for a second home. We would highly recommend Gordon King to anyone looking for a home in Newport.

Gordon King was a tremendous help to my family in purchasing a property out of state where we really had no knowledge of the area. He understood our needs and helped us find the perfect place. Even after purchasing our new property, he makes himself available to help us with whatever we need. I look forward to keeping a friendship with Gordon in the future. He has a lovely personality and I do enjoy his company. If any of my friends were interested in purchasing a property in RI I would without hesitation recommend Gordon to be their relator.

We are first-time home buyers who worked with Gordon King to purchase a multi-family home in Providence, RI. We can't recommend Gordon enough, for experienced home buyers and novices alike! We met Gordon at an open house almost a year before we ultimately purchased our home. Gordon stood out amongst other realtors because he is exceedingly patient, kind, and didn't push us to make any rash decisions. During our home search process, we saw 30+ homes and made multiple offers. Gordon never flinched, even as we changed our target from Newport to Providence, single family to multi family, and historic to contemporary. Gordon is calm, tolerant, and knowledgeable -- a real pleasure to work with. During the actual home purchase process, Gordon went out of his way on many occasions. For example, he hand-delivered our down payment, and he coordinated not one but three inspections (home inspector, contractor, structural engineer). He dealt with a very challenging selling agent and he never complained, not even when our home purchase cut into his vacation! As first time home buyers, we were especially happy to have such a patient realtor to walk us through the process. Gordon really knows the Rhode Island market through and through, and manages to make the experience understandable and clear. We can't recommend him highly enough!

A good real estate agent wears many hats: accountant, therapist, home expert, personal advisor, neighborhood pal, style guru. Gordon King was all of these things and many more. Even staring down the big waves of a large home purchase, he was keeping a steady hand on the wheel while navigating at full throttle. He brings wonderful baked goods, is a snappy dresser, knows everyone, bon vivant, and optimist. In the two and half months of a nail biting transaction he brought to the process building inspectors, recommended architects, found us a construction contractor, and advised on tennis courts, dock builders, lawn mowers, trash guys, neighbors and restaurants. If Gordon had not been our agent I can’t imagine completing this transaction. And now, as my husband and I look out to the sunset at the west passage from our back porch, I want to thank Gordon King for helping us buy the ultimate home for the two of us and our growing family of grandchildren. --Rebecca Miller, Jamestown

I can't say enough nice things about Gordon. I normally avoid using friends as agents. We have moved more tha 20 times and this was by far the best transaction we have had because of Gordon. He is calm, thoroughly organized, knowledgeable and always available. He made sure that we were always confident and informed and when he said "not to worry I will take care of that", he did. It was seamless! I would definitely use him again and recommend him to my friends

Paul and Julie Penner, Newport RI

Gordon was an attentive broker who made himself available whenever we needed him. He gave thoughtful considerations for all aspects of the sale throughout the process; from initial offer to the home inspection to the closing. Gordon's recommendations were spot on each time. It was a comfort to know he was on our side. We would highly recommend Gordon for all your real estate needs. ~ Paul and Julie Penner

Gordon is extremely knowledgeable about the marina and boat slip market in Newport. His expertise and personal knowledge of the sellers made our purchase of a boat slip possible.

Steve Malcolm, Newport, RI

Gordon was a pleasure to work with. He was highly responsive and very knowledgeable, and he kept an even keel throughout the more difficult portions of the transaction. I highly recommend him!
