Wow! Realtor, advocate, and trusted friend - even before the end!
When Morena first called us we knew immediately that we wanted her to handle the sale of our mother's home! She was so personable, humble, and energized! When she met with us we saw just how professional she was as well. Dressed impeccably, she went on to explain how she and Sotheby's could meet our needs. Knowing that it was an older home and that our mother had just passed, she was very gentle, tactful and informative on how we could clear out mom's things, which would allow her to "stage" the home with more up-to-date furnishings. She'd check on us like a mother hen while we spent two exhausting/emotional weeks packing & giving away mom's things. One would think that she'd be calling to check on our progress, but she would call just to see how we were holding up emotionally! She and her partner, Camille, hustled furnishings in and out of the house until they felt they captured it's charm perfectly! When it came to reviewing the bids on the house, she had managed to generate so much interest in our mom's little house that it sold for $300,000 MORE than we thought it would (with approximately 30 bids in hand!). She explained the pros and cons of what each of the highest bidders had to offer, which made it easy for us to make a good choice. Now a beautiful, young family will grow up here and share a lifetime of memories, just like my husband and his brother did! Morena's upbeat, positive and unshakable demeanor made a tough situation a true adventure, with plenty to celebrate in the end! We can now buy our dream home and soon retire! Thank you so much, Morena! We're going to miss having you in our lives...
