Five stars. Helped us find the right place without the runaround. Answered every question honestly, and stayed on top of details we'd forgotten. Recommend without hesitation.
Sherry Frye is hands down the best realtor! I’ve used her several times over the years, and every experience has been outstanding. She recently helped us sell our home, and once again, she went above and beyond. She’s knowledgeable, dependable, easy to work with, and truly cares about her clients. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with buying or selling a home. If you’re looking for the best, I highly recommend Sherry Frye!
Penny is a great communicator, with quick response time. She adjusted to our needs but also helped us go in the right direction with making a decision. Her personality shines through her work!
Patsy has over 30 years of experience with exceptional knowledge of the real estate business. She is not only very knowledgeable and professional; but also very caring and goes the extra mile to make sure your experience is the best it can be. She knows how to stage your home to get potential buyers wanting to purchase. Her listings usually get offers within the first couple of days. I will certainly tell all of my friends to have her to sell their home!
Working with Terry and Courtney was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! This was actually the second house Terry has listed and sold for us, and true to form, it sold in less than two weeks! Right from the beginning, they provided invaluable guidance on the local market and set realistic pricing that set us up for success. Both Terry and Courtney are deeply trustworthy, incredibly responsive, and always available to answer questions. They truly go above and beyond for their clients. Selling a home can be stressful, but their genuine compassion and support made the entire process so much easier. We couldn't ask for a better team and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell!
Vickie was incredibly responsive and deeply invested in the entire process. She made sure our needs were not only met, but exceeded. Her market knowledge was invaluable being that we are first time homebuyers, so knowing we were making the best decision possible with Vickie’s advice gave us so much peace of mind. Vickie’s negotiation skills were incredible in helping us secure the best deal possible while keeping the sellers pleased with our offer. I genuinely couldn’t recommend a better real estate agent than Vickie! We are so excited to start building the life we’ve dreamed of in our new home, and that is all thanks to Vickie.
I called Lindsey to see the house and property the day after it was listed. She met me at the house the next morning. Later the same day, I asked if she could meet me back over at the house as I wanted to look at it again. She did this without hesitation. She facilitated negotiation of offers between me and the seller, and her input was accurate and helpful. There were a couple of issues with needed repairs prior to closing, and she handled the arrangements for those expertly. She was always able to help at a moment’s notice from the day I made an offer all the way to closing. I cannot recommend Lindsey highly enough to anyone needing the services of a top notch realtor.
Because the sale of our home was contingent on the sale of our buyers home which was also contingent their buyers selling their home, there were many, many moving parts. Our agent was in constant communication with two other agents and relaying information back to us almost daily. She brought in a professional to help us stage our home for showings and that helped tremendously in making our home shine and getting the price we wanted for our home. There was never a time that we felt in the dark about anything through the whole process. Her advice was always spot on and thoughtful. We were never blindsided by anything and while it was stressful waiting for two other homes to get appraised and inspected in addition to our own, it was extremely comforting to have an agent that we trusted and could reach out to when our nerves got the best of us. We know our agent worked hard and we'll probably never know how much she really did for us behind the scenes.
Davis is a wonderful realtor and will help and guide every step of the way. When we listed our house we were very busy with work and a new baby- so Davis helped lay pine straw, clean windows, power wash, etc. Whatever was needed he was there! He even offered to babysit our pup for inspection! He goes out of his way to make sure everything is done and you get the most money for your property. We also used him to find a new house. He was phenomenal on the buying side as well. We had looked high and low and he mentioned he found a house that fit all of our needs. He was absolutely right and helped us negotiate an offer that fits our needs.
Hilary was great, no complaints at all. She was always available for a showing or anything we needed. Super responsive and knowledgable on any questions or referring us to people she trust to help with the process. Would 100% recommend working with Hilary!
