    Ashley Crain is incredible to work with! Ashley was extremely patient with us, and worked really hard to find us a beautiful home that we love. On top of finding us the perfect home, Ashley went over and beyond to help us settle into a new city that we weren't familiar with. Even after the sale was complete, she made sure we had everything that we needed to be comfortable in our new home and our new city. If you need to buy or sell a home, I h...

  • WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    We were thrilled with our experience with Shondell Patterson as our realtor. Shondell was able to find a buyer before we listed the home. For both transactions, Shondell kept us informed and provided exceptional expertise and guidance throughout the process. She exceeded our expectations in all aspects of selling and buying our homes.

  • WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    Ashley was a great partner throughout the sales process. She was always there to show the home and in a few instances went well out of her way from a time and expense standpoint to make sure the home was properly prepared to show. She was always on time, prepared and provided prompt, honest and balanced feedback from each showing. She was always looking out for our best interests and was very helpful in the negotiation and closing processes. I...

  • WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    As a first time home buyer, I started this journey with very little knowledge of what the process entails. Working with Kaitlyn was the best decision I could have made. She was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the process and was always willing and able to answer my questions, big or small. Despite some unpredictable road blocks, I never had a doubt that Kaitlyn would help me navigate through them. She made me feel comfortable and ...

    Ashley, Jill, and Kate are an amazing team! They helped me through every step of the process of selling my home, including providing me great advice to get the home ready for sale, negotiating a strong sale price, and providing great referrals for services I needed to move.

    ~ B.M.

  • WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    Going into the home buying process we heard horror stories of the market and how difficult it would be to find a home that met our needs. We were fully expecting to settle for a home that was not exactly what we were looking for or pay way too much. Working with Kaitlyn was so amazing. She immediately found us homes in our budget and after a day of looking we found our house and had an offer accepted within that same week. Our house exceeded o...

  • WHAT CLIENTS SAY

    I had used Janine’s services when we sold our home right after Covid and knew that I needed her help selling my deceased client’s condo. I found that this time Janine far exceeded my expectations. Janine had the right network of vendors for cleaning windows, floors, staging and removal of items that didn’t sell. She handled the pricing and showcasing with ease and got my client’s beneficiaries the best deal during a slow and difficult sales cl...
