“It was a pleasure and delight to work with Lisa. She came highly recommended and we were very grateful that we chose her as our realtor. She was very knowledgeable of the area and the type of house we were looking for. She was always in constant communication with us during the whole process. She started out as our professional realtor but quickly became more of a member of our family. I give her 100 ⭐️”

“Thomas was amazing to work with! He went above and beyond throughout the entire process of renting out my property. He kept me reassured every step of the way, was quick to respond to all of my questions, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. His professionalism and dedication truly stand out. I highly recommend Thomas to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive realtor”
Keller Williams Atlantic Shore
“Dan is the type of real estate agent you want in your corner...he was always accessible, professional and kind. He went above and beyond the call of duty. He would almost always accommodate your schedule for showing the houses. He gave his honest opinion of the houses... he just wasn't looking for a sale. He wanted to make sure you were buying the right house and that you were going to be happy. Even after you put the down payment on the house he stayed around to help the lawyers where, in my experience, the real estate agent usually disappeared and left the rest to the lawyers, never to be seen again. Even after the closing he still made himself accessible if you had any questions. Dan takes his job seriously and it shows!!”
