“Becky was incredible to work with and helped us not only with the purchase of our home in Florida, but was a huge help through our whole process of moving from Minnesota and even assisted with finding a rental until we could find a place to build.

“I highly recommend Rich Noto for new home construction. He was a fantastic advocate throughout my build, especially since I was relocating from Pennsylvania to Florida. Living states away, he sent detailed videos of construction progress and found defects during various inspections. His communication and availability far exceeded my expectations. Rich has a keen eye for potential issues and a deep understanding of building codes that many other agents, and even some inspectors, might miss. He truly knows the critical phases of construction, from the foundation on, and when to schedule inspections. He understands the tricks builders use to hide problems and is a fierce advocate for his clients. I have no doubt he saved me from future headaches. He is an invaluable resource who ensured I ended up with a high-quality home.”

Anyone engaging Lottie Creech to assist them will be thankful they did.”
“Buffy was amazing!! We began the process back in March and we lived in Missouri at the time. She would send us listings and we let her know what we liked and what we didn't like so by the time we traveled to Florida she knew exactly what we looking for and hit the nail on the head with the 2nd house she showed us. She kept in touch with us through the whole process and researched everything for us from financing to utilities and cable TV. I couldn't be happier with Buffy, she did it all and made us feel like we were her only customer even though we knew that wasn't true. She deserves a million stars!!”
