She really took the time to listen to all of us and to educate us as well since none of us had ever owned a second home. There had to be times she was frust…
I’ve come to know Pat as a professional who is determined and dedicated throughout the entire process of selling a property in a market that’s not fully recovered. She’s also a person who’s just plain enjoyable to work with.
I have known Julie for 12 years and she is the ultimate professional real estate broker. She is very thorough in the representation of Buyers and Sellers, and leaves no stone unturned in finding the right opportunity for those she represents. I would highly recommend her for any challenge in residential real estate, and she will pursue her endeavors with a high degree of enthusiasm, credibility, and resolve.
