TESTIMONIALS

Sara & Bryan Deglow | Home Seller & Home Buyer

Carol was honest, realistic about our goals and a pleasure to work with.

Norm Olson | Home Seller & Home Buyer

The first offer we received was 10% lower than asking price. Carol recognized they were only hoping to get the property at a reduced price, but also knew they desperately wanted it. She countered full price and added a short closing. They accepted instantly.

Leesa Hobbs | Home Buyer

Carol has a professional attitude and gave prompt, accurate responses for an out of town client. Also two of us located in different parts of the country, Carol communicated to both of us with ease. From first contact (prior to ever having met in person, Carol had our best interest as buyers at heart).

Traci Bourqeia Wells | Home Buyer

We loved how at ease Carol made us feel through the whole process. She kept us in the loop and informed every step of the way. We enjoyed working with Carol. If we ever decide to buy again, we will definitely be coming back to you!

Katherine Swendsen | Home Seller

Carol was business-like and knew the answer to my questions. She is outgoing, and pleasant to be around. She was always on time and she did an outstanding job. She took beautiful pictures and I would let her sell a house for me again and let my friends know about her.

Larry and Colleen Charney | Home Seller & Home Buyer

Carol was very good at her job while always being positive about things working out. She is a hard worker while getting outside help if needed to represent our interest.

She is real personal and questioned our needs to see if she could help keep us at ease and calm.

Deborah Williams | Home Buyer

Carol, you were such a pleasure to do business with! You were the most professional person in any capacity I have dealt with in a very long time! So appreciated your kindness and humility in dealing with all aspects of our property purchase. And then I was surprised when, after the sale, you contacted me just to make sure we were happy. We couldn't be happier!

Lisa Starelli | Home Buyer

I really liked it when Carol followed up to call and meet my son. He also liked you and thought you were nice, easy to talk to and thank you for making it happen when I was out of the country to do the transaction. I had no worries and she got things done.

Carol's communication and advocacy for us was the best. She helped us every step of the way.

Client

Through our buying process Carol has been an excellent example of what communication, professionalism and knowledge is. Highly recommend to any friends/family.

Home Buyer

Poor Carol... She had to deal with me for 6-7 months. We had just moved here from the "right" coast and did not know the area, people or economy. She was patient and kind and met me at several locations. She showed me countless domiciles and was knowledgeable regarding the local areas. She was quick to respond and dealt with many of the pitfalls of buying a house. Highly recommend!!!
