“It's been great working with Bobbi - she is very responsive (never once missed a phone call or text), always on point but never pushy, be it her advice on pricing changes or negotiating an offer or following up on repairs. She arranged multiple open houses, brought in a steady stream of potential buyers, helped us a lot thru the whole process, made it easy for us even after we moved out of state and got our home sold just before the winter hit. Loved working with her and would definitely recommend her. ”

“We loved our experience with Jacob! He is pretty amazing and kept on top of things through our whole process. He went above and beyond his duties as an agent, and to that we are very grateful! It's almost sad to see our time come to an end; it was habit to talk with Jacob every day! We are in love with our new home, and we have Jacob to thank for that!!”
