My husband and I weren't planning on moving but started talking about downsizing in the abstract, so we put some specs into Zillow and started receiving emails with listings. For the first few weeks, nothing was quite right and then we saw the perfect property...
Jamie Columbus came to us through the best possible word-of-mouth recommendation from a colleague of my husband's. He told us that he and his wife followed all of Jamie's instructions in preparing their house to go to market and she sold it in two days!
Jamie helped us buy a delightful house and we are now getting our current house ready to list with her.
Jamie is the most effective professional we've ever encountered. She is knowledgeable about the area and about houses in general, she is incredibly responsive, strategic, she's thorough, and skillful as an advocate for her clients. Jamie will answer every question and will get to the bottom of murky situations in a flash. She really goes the extra mile.
Jamie also comes with an incredible team. We worked with her assistant, Lori, as well as Laura Greene, who stages houses when they're getting them ready to go on the market. Just like Jamie, these ladies are incredibly effective and are masters in their respective areas.
The contractor referrals from Jamie were also a very pleasant surprise. Each of them have decades of experience, they showed up early and stayed late, they're great communicators, thorough, and fair. We are grateful to have these folks in our lives and will be happy to call them for our future home improvements. We have the feeling that if Jamie is recommending them, they will do work to the highest possible standard, just like she does.
Beyond her raw talent as a realtor, Jamie is a really nice person. She's patient and she offers us the perfect balance of hand-holding and reality-checks during one of the biggest decisions we've ever made.
In short, we will recommend Jamie Columbus to anyone who will listen. We can't say enough good things about her and we count ourselves extremely lucky to have found her. read more
