“As a first time home buyer, I had no knowledge of the real estate market or the process of home buying. Traci looked out for me every step of the way, ensuring I was getting the best deal and answering any questions. When I found the home I wanted to purchase, Traci was able to get me a few extra incentives from the seller. It's those little things that really matter and I appreciated her attentiveness to seeing that I was happy with my home purchase. ”
“Keldia was patient, listened to my needs and concerns. She would provide feedback when asked for it. She would also provide critical and strategic advice in certain situations that deemed it necessary. She stuck with the plan I had, which was very aggressive for a seller’s market. In the end, I was able to get the place I wanted for significantly less than asking price and with the difference I was able to upgrade all appliances, change the carpet with a premium product, paint the whole interior and replace the hardwoods with bamboo flooring. Overall, it was a great experience and I would deal with her again. Highly recommended!”
“I would recommend Allison to my Friends and family.”
