“Freeman was a pleasure to work with from the start. When he first introduced himself and provided his professional opinion on the value of my home, he was not pushy or salesy. I informed him that I had promised my husband not to sign anything that evening, so we needed two weeks to complete some minor tasks before listing. He was understanding, kept in touch with our progress, and offered assistance if needed. Following his advice, we listed the house on the optimal day for maximum value, and within 48 hours, a couple showed interest and ultimately purchased our home. My husband met Freeman for the first time on the day of closing and remarked, "I can see why you chose him." He appreciated their conversations about our new home build and the helpful suggestions Freeman offered for our new journey.”

“I was amazed you found an agent to handle the sale of my property mere hours after I contacted you very late in the evening. I was contacted by Kim first thing the following morning & within a week to 10 days, we had an offer. I didn't even think we'd be able to sell but Kim was positive & encouraging. I couldn't have done this without her.”
