Dora was great. She found what we wanted in the price range we wanted and made it a really simple process .Her knowledge of the lake is second to none and she is still helping us when we need it.

There are not enough words to describe how deeply appreciative I am of Dora her expertise. Being the most genuine, honest & integrity-filled Realtor I have ever met, she has a solution to everything (even during what could be the most difficult sale of your life-and mine definitely came with its challenges right out of the gate). I never felt pressured to do anything I did not want to and at the end of the day I was 150% confident she always had my best interest in mind. Everything stayed right on schedule despite external barriers beyond our control and selling my house was easy and stress free. Having worked in sales for years I always pictured Realtors to not be far from the car salesman demeanor (smoke and mirrors) but Dora was the complete opposite. She cares, she is compassionate, and has a heart of gold. She is by far the best that exists. I am blessed to have had her as my realtor but more importantly I am so lucky to have an amazing new friend.
