Debbie Lawes
In a day and age where so many people just want to line their pockets, and during a period of our society where civility and kindness seem to have all but vanished, Debbie Lawes is the antidote. Her professionalism, expertise and character were bright lights in the bewildering darkness that besets any first-time home buyer because of their inexperience. She guided me through the often overwhelming process of buying my home, ceaselessly making sure that the numerous details needing to be addressed were done so in a painless manner, while always offering wise guidance on considerations that enabled me to see how the home would fit my needs. She tirelessly set up numerous home inspections, repairs, and evaluations while walking the high-wire tightrope involved in simultaneously representing both the seller and the buyer. She was meticulous with all the documents and maintained a Job-like patience when explaining each mysterious line of every daunting form. She was very efficient and organized, and provided highly regarded experts, where needed. I don’t know when (or if) she slept, since she was always available, covering every angle of my concerns till I was satisfied that I could move forward during each phase of the house buying process in a responsible manner. After I successfully purchased my home, to my great surprise, the “miracle of Debbie” continued, even though her legal obligation to assist me had expired. My new home needed some work but I was on the other side of the country, and unable to move in for a few weeks. So she selflessly arranged for whatever was needed and continued to be an amazing resource for everything else I had to know or do before moving in. She has been generous, well-motivated, kind and caring. A real star of a person and a rare human being! I was exceptionally lucky to run into her, and anyone, whether they are a first-time buyer or very experienced, would only benefit greatly to be under her wing.
