My wife and I worked with Madison Benedetto for our last real estate purchase and she is amazing.. She listened to what we needed, provided us with ideas and we ended up purchasing the perfect house. She is extremely knowledgeable, provides invaluable insights, and is a bulldog in negotiations. I have used a few realtors in my life but none have been as great as Madison.. I will use her again when the time comes.

Working with Leslie Davis was amazing from start to finish! Her attention to detail and follow-through are second to none. She helped make my cross country move smooth and flawless. I am confident that I chose the best house possible for my family and I feel like I’ve made a friend for life.

We could not have asked for a better real estate agent than Michaela Young. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in making the entire process smooth and successful. Michaela has an incredible eye for detail and a deep understanding of the market, which gave us total confidence in every decision we made.
What truly sets Michaela apart is her calm, supportive approach and her ability to anticipate issues before they arise. She communicated clearly and promptly, advocated fiercely on our behalf, and handled every step with integrity and care. No question ever felt too small, and she always made us feel like a priority.

Katelyn was absolutely PHENOMENAL as my agent while navigating the truly trying process of buying my first home. My lender was terrible to work with and Katelyn did everything in her power to make the process as smooth as possible. She was excellent at handling issues that came up and communicating them early, clearly, and effectively, and went to bat for me so many times when the lender came up with a new issue or simply just wouldn’t work with me. She took fantastic care of me and I’m so pleased to have been able to work with her.

I’ve had the chance to interact with Keller Williams through Michaela Young, and she’s been great to work with. She’s always willing to answer questions, offer honest advice, and help point people in the right direction. Michaela is knowledgeable, approachable, and easy to trust, and you can tell she genuinely cares about doing things the right way. Even outside of a formal transaction, she’s been a valuable resource. Keller Williams is fortunate to have her on their team.
