We originally were going to go with another realtor to sell our home, but I had some questions regarding the Title, and I asked a friend if he knew any real estate attorneys. He said he didn't, but he had a long time realtor friend, Jeannie Hallgrimson, who might be able to help me. I contacted her, being up front with her that I already had a realtor, but that I had a few questions she couldn't answer, and Jeannie didn't hesitate, jumped right in and used her own time, pro bono, in trying to help me out. I was so impressed with how much she put into it, knowing she was not going to get a financial reward, that I finally decided to let my other realtor go, and hired Jeannie instead. I was also impressed with Jeannie's extreme micro-knowledge of our town, understanding the split demographics and dynamics of our animal keeping community. That, combined with her very professional appearance, yet warm and friendly attitude, made the whole process so much easier to deal with. We had some very sticky legal issues, again regarding the Title, and let me say, in my darkest moments, Jeannie was always there as my best cheer leader, never letting me get down for long, always positive that the problems would be cleared up, always reassuring me, which made me feel so much better, as I was by then living 2000 miles away. It is very scary to be in the middle of selling your house, major legal issues, and not being there physically, but I had Jeannie, and of course, with her countless (unpaid) hours, everything was finally cleared up, the house sold, and she called me and told me I could finally open the present SHE gave ME before I moved. How thoughtful is that?! When my children are ready to buy a house, I will be contacting Jeannie, and more importantly, I feel like I have made a life time friend.
