“We are completey satisfied with Jim Tierney. We are so impressed by his integrity, honesty, and professionalism. With his years of experience, his advice and expertise were invaluable. We had the challenge of living out of the area during the sale. Jim was excellent with communication. The sale process was smooth and low stress with Jim guiding us through it. He was able to advise us in exactly what was needed to prepare the house for sale. His marketing strategy was excellent, resulting in the sale of the house in a little over 2 weeks at a good price with multiple offers. We give Jim our highest recommendation!”

Payal took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and provided thoughtful guidance and expertise throughout the search, negotiations, and final closing. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care truly set her apart. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“Ms Hagley was referred to us by good friends. She understood what we wanted and came through with that. She guaranteed we’d be in contract no more than two weeks and we were in contract before the two weeks was up. It was a difficult decision for us to sale my grandparents’ place but I am soooo glad we did. I’m always throwing the name out there to people that are thinking of selling. I’m very grateful for the services that Cindi provided for us. I would highly recommend Cindi and her group because they stand by their word and commitment to you. Thank you again!!!”
