“Professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful Where do I start, Amy went above and beyond to help me, guided me, supported me, reassured me, and respected my every wish. I am not an easy client to say the least. Amy was my support that I didn't have, being by myself with nobody to bounce concerns and ideas off was difficult for me, and she was just that. I've bought several houses in the past and never once have I used the same realtor until Amy. I worked with a different realtor by the name Lori Periard from Century 21 and she was a nightmare. Amy drove me around, helped me find a house, car, insurances and anything else I needed to make my transition as smooth as possible. I respect Amy, have much admiration for her. I plan to use Amy for my next adventure. I can't thank Amy enough.”
