Wow! So happy to found her. I look forward to doing business with her in the future too. Looking at buying our new home (3rd time buying) she has made herself available for me on evenings and weekends and no matter what I ask or my realtor does she is quick to assist us. Look forward to getting our new home and continuing to work with her.
