What is a Team?

Real estate transactions are increasingly difficult in today's economic climate.  A team approach allows us to work twice as hard for each individual client to ensure the job is done correctly!  We operate like a small boutique company with the name and resources of a large corporation behind us.  Our team consists of a lead agent and a transaction coordinator who helps from the time a contract is signed until closing to ensure all deadlines are met and that everything runs smoothly.  Soon to come we will be adding a buyer's agent who will work exclusively with buyers.  We strive to give customers an experience that no other agent can top.  But don't take our word for it, just take a look at what our raving fans think of our job for them!
