There was nothing “usual and customary” about my home purchase and home sale, yet Shea was helpful and adaptable throughout the process. Buying a house during a pandemic meant several “FaceTime” walk-throughs. I am disabled from a stroke and needed help finding a junk-hauler and a cleaning crew. Shea had stellar referrals for contractors. My buyer was not following the typical script and there were several times when my attorney had to get involved. Shea was always in my corner and knew when to step forward and when to step back. I knew I could trust Shea. And trust was key in making so many life-changing decisions.

She was great!! Always available for questions. Our property was about to be foreclosed on and she was able to sell it short sale and saved my credit! A++, highly recommend...

If you'd prefer a short version of a review, here it is: Dionne Clifton is an absolutely superb real estate agent. I've purchased a number of homes over the years and I give her my absolute highest recommendation. I would eagerly work with her again. Now, for the details: We started our home search while still living in another state. After we contacted Dionne she immediately set about researching homes and sending us any that fit our criteria. She also eagerly went and did video walkthroughs for some of the homes that interested us. So, from day one, she established a pattern of communication and responsiveness that she maintained throughout the transaction. Later, as our home search began in earnest, Dionne was proactive in finding and researching homes for us. She was also forthright in telling us when a home was a good value and when a home was overpriced. Sometimes real estate agents cater to what they believe are the whims of their client. In other words, if a client clearly likes a home, the agent will hold back on their criticisms of it or of its price. Dionne never did that. I always had confidence that she was giving us her genuine opinion and evaluation of the property both as a potential home and as an investment. Once we'd actually put in an offer on a home, Dionne really shined. She negotiated an excellent deal for us and guided us through some of the hiccups that occurred during the inspection period. Importantly she remained patient and proactive throughout the transaction. There were some matters within the home that we may have missed, but Dionne saw them and addressed them without hesitation. As a result we wound up with a fantastic home and are highly satisfied customers. So, I highly recommend that you work with Dionne, she's a fantastic agent and will not just meet, but will exceed your expectations for expertise, patience, insight, and communication.
