Lisa helped me get through the ups and downs of selling with ease.

Lisa knows what she is doing. She was in contact with me at every turn. Lisa has been in the business a long time and keeps up with all the new regulations. Her negotiation skills are excellent, which she proved during my closing process. I have known Lisa for a long time and her professionalism is excellent.

Responded! Team was excellent! Lisa is AMAZING! I would recommend her and her agency to anyone!

Our family bought a home out of state. In a competitive market with so much new construction, Lisa and her team did an amazing job selling our home. Within four weeks, we had an offer. A few days after that, we were under contract. Lisa was responsive, great to work with, made our long distance sale so very easy and stress-free, it was just fantastic. Her team was just as responsive when she was away for a few days and they never missed a beat! They always made time for me, reassured me of where we were in the deal, stayed abreast of everything from the buyers' agent, and were 100000% worth their fee. To anyone relocating from another state or just making a local change, CALL LISA. Don't think about it, don't compare agents, JUST CALL! Best decision we ever made. Thank you!

Seller review
Finally a real estate  Agent that listens to the client
about 2 months ago
Finally a real estate Agent that listens to the client

I was looking for an agent that would most of all listen to me and also not push to lower the price, especailly too soon after listing the home. She did just that listen and when i did lower the price she didn't push me lower than the amount i wanted. The house sold in a decent amount of time, then the fun began with a house i put an offer in. That whole transaction was more than complicated and aggravating ,yet Lisa kept he calm when i was beside myself. She had to probably do and go thru more than with most listing Especailly putting up with me someone who has to have everything done yesterday ,Bottom line she is beyond professional she is very nice and in the end no matter the road blocks got everything taken care of. Always answered the phone when I called, ,Again best agent I have ever worked with
