“Traci and another agent from her group, Lana, helped me see as many houses as I wanted. They were very helpful and considerate. Between the two ladies, I saw so many houses and never felt pushed to buy any of them. I was informed of potential issues with houses and they respected if I didn't like something about a house. Days before I was set to go back home, Traci found a house that had just come on the market and I bought it! It has almost everything on my wish list. I couldn't be happier!”
“Lana Stephens and Traci Mitchell are a pleasure to work with. They are professional and friendly, and know their business. They not only sold my late father's townhome, they helped me completely gut and remodel it. And I live out of state! Their team put together a great plan. They kept in constant contact with plans, purchases and those things that pop-up when remodeling. I appreciate their patience, kindness and special treatment since it was my father's place. I can't think of a better fit for what I needed. I highly recommend them to work with any situation.”
