“Camille Simms was in it for the long haul with us as buyers. We considered many styles of home and Camille worked tirelessly to meet our changing needs and desires. She continuously answered a wide variety of questions about topics that were unfamiliar to us with professionalism and credibility in a timely manner. We were always able to reach her if we had follow up concerns after visiting a home and she was integral in helping us understand various price points within a neighborhood. There is no way we could have come to this successful outcome (buying our dream home) without Camille's tireless patience and persistence in making this transaction happen. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a home both on the waterfront or in any of the nearby communities.”

“My agent was Lucy Phelan at Keller Williams, and I had a great experience working with both Lucy and her brother Richard. Both had provided me with their expert advice, they would take extra steps to educate you and walk you thru the home shopping process. They would work on my schedule, try their best to answer all my questions and would point me to the right direction when I was looking for the lender, inspector, lawyer, etc. As a home buyer in this "Bidding War" market, most of my offers were turned down; however, both Lucy and Rich have continuously provided me encouragement to keep trying and looking. I cannot remember how many houses we have looked together...and when I was not able to look at the houses in person, they would video call me to conduct a virtual home showing. In general, they are exceptionally good with people skill, nice/friendly people to talk with and they show care on other things then just home buying. I would like to work with them again in the future and would recommend them to any home buyer/seller.”
