“I was extremely pleased with Abby Basci. I was looking for an agent to sell my condo in Gainesville. After I placed an inquiry online to find an agent, Abby was one of the first people to contact me. I talked to her over the phone and soon met her. I was very impressed with her assessment of my condo and her plan to market and sell it. She also was instrumental in the renovations that made it possible for us to sell it at a higher price than I anticipated. Abby took care of everything because I don't live in Gainesville. We sold the condo in a reasonable time for a very good price. It was a stress-free process because of her hard work and knowledge of the real estate market. We now have sold the condo and I can't praise her hard work enough. Abby really takes care of business as a dynamic young woman. Go Abby!!”

“Realtor for us was Jen Tobey. She came to initial meeting prepared and educated. She is professional & and market knowledgeable. We signed up with her. She showed the home several times and gave us good feedback. When the house was sold the process went smoothly, even though it was a probate sale. All of my phone calls, emails and text messages were immediately answered. What a pleasure working with her after dealing with courts, judges, banks, lawyers, financial advisors, retailers, inspectors and roofers to name a few. We also had a wonderful title company handle the closing.”
