As a first time home buyer, I am so grateful to have had Bridgette by my side. Bridgette is incredibly knowledgeable and helped me understand the process from start to finish. She always went above and beyond. She showed me dozens of homes in a tight market until we found the right one, which she negotiated to under asking, with seller credit! Buying for the first time is always nerve-wracking but Bridgette held my hand every step of the way, from connecting me to a lender, to giving me contact information for contractors after move in. Bridgette was also incredibly patient and helped me figure out what I was looking for, and was very supportive when I decided to put my search on hold. Throughout the process, she learned exactly what I was looking for and knew this was the house for me before I even did! I would not have been able to find or get my home without Bridgette! Highly recommend her to everyone, especially first time home buyers!

As first time homebuyers we felt incredibly lucky to have Bridgette as our realtor. Before we even started looking at places together, she gave us a detailed overview of the process and what to expect at each stage. She also connected us with lenders, inspectors, and title agents who similarly took time to educate us and make our experience a smooth one. Bridgette gave us time to figure out what we were looking for and quickly noted patterns in our preferences, even before we realized them ourselves. She was patient, encouraging, and always responsive, and was extremely accomodating in working her schedule around our availability since we were out of state. She knew the market, gave us her honest opinions without pressuring us, and was ready to make moves when we needed to. She did a lot of background legwork to make our purchase a smooth one, and even negotiated to get us a seller credit in a hot sellers market. Throughout the ups and downs of the homebuying process, we always knew that Bridgette was looking out for our best interests and constantly working on our behalf. We feel like we gained a friend in the process, and would highly recommend working with Bridgette to all of our friends!

Bridgette went above and beyond in all aspects of the process of helping us buy our first house. She thoroughly explained all steps and documents, helped set up our inspection and other critical appointments, and recommended a variety of contractors (who we also loved!). We always felt informed and comfortable when working with her and would recommend her to anyone! She is so efficient and the most hard-working realtor - we loved working with her!

My husband and I were first time home buyers and very nervous about the process with the pandemic housing market, particularly when it came to potential multiple offer scenarios. We interviewed several potential agents and found Bridgette to be the right mix of personal attention, high energy and enthusiasm, knowledgeable about the Montgomery County area, and deep engagement on contracts/inspections/negotiations.

We anticipated working with Bridgette for a number of months as our apartment lease wasn't due to end for awhile but as things go, we found the perfect house within a couple of weeks of starting with Bridgette. The house had been on the market for a few weeks with no offers and we saw the house a few days before an open house and we knew that might cause a bidding war. Bridgette helped us put together a very competitive offer and pre-inspection and we got the offer accepted the night before the open house! We are loving our new home and have zero complaints. I can't thank Bridgette enough for her tenacity, negotiation, and level of professionalism in helping us through the finish line. She made what I thought would be a very painful process into a smooth one.

One last thing - please go with the title and mortgage lending companies she recommends - they were all absolutely outstanding!

As a first time homeowner, I first met Bridgette in early March 2019 at an open house in Columbia. We worked together all March & April 2019. We might've looked at 50 places. There were even a couple that I put in offers, but for one reason or another it fell through. She was patient, worked tirelessly sometimes late at night helping me find new places to look at and to explain various aspects in a home, contract, etc. After being tired of looking so much, in early May 2019, I decided to resign my lease for 1-year, and extended for a few months beyond that, at my apartment as I was already well past the 60-day notice I needed to give and frankly did like my apartment.

I started looking again in early August 2020, and knowing Bridgette had been great & patient with me in Spring 2019, without hesitation, I wanted to use her as my agent again. I quickly found my new place at an open house and signed in late August. We looked at some other places to weigh different options, but ultimately, I made the decision on the one I loved. She guided me through all the steps of the buying process from explaining the contract, negotiation of the contract, home inspection, and going step-by-step on what I needed to do as each point in time. Furthermore, when Rocket Mortgage had let something slip though the cracks just before my closing date, she fought for me to get the closing date to happen on the scheduled day. Closing day went great, and she has followed up with me on how my move is going.

In summary, she was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, warm, fought for me, quickly replied to my questions or concerns, and great at negotiating the best deal for me.
