As first-time homebuyers, my husband and I were looking for a realtor who could help us navigate this foreign process. Family members of ours had purchased a home with Chris years prior and recommended that we reach out to him for help. We are so thankful that we did. While searching for about 18 months in a sellers' market, Chris was patient and devoted to helping us find not just a house that met some of our criteria, but the best place for us to invest our savings and create a home. He sent us specific listings (not automatic search results) and kept an eye out for homes coming on the market that could better meets our needs than what was currently available. He was always free for home tours and came prepared with knowledge of both the house and the neighborhood (e.g., schools, nearby amenities, builder/floorplans/models). We never felt rushed while touring as Chris was also checking on important features of the house (e.g., age of HVAC, water heater, appliances, roof). When we were ready to pursue a purchase, Chris made recommendations for how to strengthen our offer, both initially and during negotiations regarding appraisal, but made sure we were comfortable with what was put forward. He also referred us to a great lender (John Petersen at TD Bank), who helped us lock in a relatively low interest rate. Once our offer was accepted, Chris ensured that all of the next steps happened in a timely manner. At the final walkthrough, Chris not only helped us check the house's condition, but also explained how the final cash-to-close had been determined so we didn't have any surprises when signing. Even after closing, Chris has still been available to answer questions. We are so grateful for his help and plan to work with him again in the future!

I am from out of state so I needed someone that I could trust completely. She went above and beyond to help me. She is very knowledgeable on the area and prices. I would highly recommend anyone to her

Vilas was amazing and patient. She made time to show us all of the home we wanted to see in the small time frame we had to work with since we were from out of town (probabaly 20-25 in less than 3 days). She gave us recommendations for lenders, title companies, etc. We easily built a rapport with her, and had a great time working with her. She's very knowledgeable about the area, has a great eye that can help her buyers see things they might miss on first viewing a home. She takes time to educate and is truly passionate about what she does. If we are ever in the market for more real estate or ever need to give someone a recommendation, Vilas will be the person we will go to every time.
