Kris Johnson
Buyer
Kris was absolutely amazing! She made sure she kept our needs in mind at all times. She was always on time and only showed us homes that met our needs and wants and fit within our budget. We would not have been able to find our dream home without her. If we do buy another home in this area or sell our home, Kris will be our realtor! I would not go with anyone else unless I had no other choice. She was understanding if we did not want to even go into a home, she just took us to the next home! She was great! I feel like we left with more than just a home out of this process, but a friend as well. Anytime we wanted to go see the home, she made it happen! She worked around our busy work schedules and helped our dreams become reality! She even went as far as to help give us directions on utilities after the home buying process was complete. I will not go with any other realtor. Kris is the absolute best! I can not say enough positive things about how easy she made the experience and how great she is as a person!

Amy was so great to work with. She kept me updated on everything that was going on and was always available if I had questions. She's easy to talk to and I felt like she was really on my side and when we got an offer on the house she worked hard to help me and negotiated with the buyers to get me the best deal. She sold the house in 1 day. Amy knows her stuff. She's awesome! Best realtor I've ever worked with!

Absolute professional, extremely thorough and immediately responsive to all our needs. Incredibly pro-active and made selling the house as easy and simple as could be. Ami answered all questions and concerns, no hesitation, no "I don't know" or "let me checks" and it didn't matter if it was a text or email - response was immediate and accurate. Highly recommend her and would't hesitate to use her again. Spectacular in all facets of the job.

Ami did a super job showing properties to us and eventually getting us into the home we wanted. She responds right away, which is alway appreciated. Her knowledge of the community was key in finding locations which were right for our family. She also has a good resource base. I know I can call or text her anytime for just about anything, and she will have an answer for me. If she doesn't, she'll point me in the right direction. I appreciate that. She wants you to have the best real estate experience. That comes through loud and clear. Whether you are renting, buying or selling. She's the one who will get it done for you.

We can not say enough good things about Lori!! She was amazing every step of the way during our FIRST home buying process. She’s very friendly, knowledgeable, honest, helpful and quick to reply.
We just moved back from living overseas and we signed on a house without seeing it in person. We never would have done this with anyone else. We felt we could really trust Lori and she went above and beyond getting us info, answering all of our questions, FaceTiming us so we could “see” the house, etc!
We would recommend her to anyone and everyone and we are glad to now call her a friend!
Thank you again Lori!!

BEST REALTOR EVER! Melissa is the perfect realtor for someone like me. I am meticulous and very analytical when it comes to making decisions. Finding our new home was going to be a very time consuming and at times overwhelming adventure. I gave Melissa a list of a few things that were a requirement - a pool, a two car garage and few other things. She did the research and came back to me with a list of perfectly suited houses that had everything I was looking for in a home. She gave me all of the information that I could possibly need to pick the perfect place for our family. Once we decided, Melissa made the rest of the home buying process a dream. She stayed on top of every step, from writing the offer to signing at the closing table. Her ambitious nature and professional work ethics made it possible for us to close on our new home in 26 days! On my birthday!!! Call her. She's awesome :)

Tracy just completed another successful sale of real estate for us for some estate property we were probating. As always she went the extra mile in providing advice and service in collateral matters including the estate sale, coordination of cleaning and coordination of repairs in satisfaction of the buyer's due diligence concerns. She is always available and ready to assist with whatever is requested in furtherance of the sale.
This was not the first time we have used Tracy and in fact she is the only agent I use and trust in taking care of our listings and effectively selling the properties we list with her. I have other properties presently listed through her and will continue to use her for all of my future sales in my practice.
It is without hesitation that I recommend her to others including those of my clients in my probate practice who request guidance in selling estate/inherited property. I have only had positive feedback from those that I recommend to her and who use her in their transactions.
I am confident she will continue to provide top level service and advice and look forward to her assistance going forward.

He is a trained professional who not only knows the ins and outs of the business, but he also has a positive attitude. We were out of town buyers who needed a great deal of local support to make the purchase happen. He was there every step of the way and It was no surprise to us that he continued to be the point man for a few last minute details that required someone local to handle after closing. I couldn't be happier with Dru. I highly recommend him.

Lori did a tremendous job for us in a fast-pace market. Working with us while we were in Japan, she was able to "tour" us through our options, get us information on schools, animal boarding facilities, and any other questions we threw at her. Over the time difference, Lori was always very responsive to our questions. We always felt that she had our best interest at heart, and are very pleased with how smoothly everything went considering the immense physical distance we were working from. We are more than happy to recommend Lori as a realtor, especially to military families, as she is a prior military spouse and has a true understanding of the challenges military families go through with each move. We are happily settling into our home and are thankful that Lori helped make our transition so much easier!

Tracy Wood is an incredibly motivated and professional realtor! She researched the market and assisted us in setting a reasonable price and strategy for our house--which drove a contract offer within three days of her listing it on all real estate media markets. She quickly arranged for some superb carpentry work at a very reasonable cost following the home inspection. Throughout my experience with her, she was always available to answer questions, follow up on required actions, and extremely conscientious in coordinating the sale with the buyer’s agent. Above all, she was always transparent in her dealings and was the driving force in getting to closing within 30 days of the listing! I highly recommend her expertise to anyone needing a great realtor--you won’t be disappointed.
