Karie was highly professional and had an excellent knowledge of the skills needed in the real estate market. Communication between my wife and I and the buyers agent were impeccable. She was always on top of the actions needed to make sure the sale was done in a timely manner and all actions were completed as required to eventually get to closing.
Joe was a listing agent for a non-typical property purchase of a boat rack position at a marina. He was extremely helpful in manuevering the process and educating me and keeping me informed of the progress of the transaction. Great guy to work with!
