I met Laurie through my neighbor who was in the process of going to list with her.I told my neighbor I would buy her house for the amount she wanted and she had her agent contact me before it was listed. Laurie called me I gave her my concerns since I am self employed many banks won't lend to me . Laurie referred a financial institution who started the process a private lender who actually did the loan for me. I used Laurie as a dual agent on my behalf as she was very helpful all the way. She maintained communication with me throughout the transaction and it was all wrapped up in no time. I basically had to do very little work as a result of Laurie supplying all the necessary persons needed to close the transaction. I could focus solely on getting me documents in order as I was out of State when I put in the offer and returned to do the final documents. The process was very somme from the start. I would highly recommend her she is very knowledgable in this field. JOANNE WHEATON
