If you have an aging parent, a brother or sister, or another loved one who needs to downsize and move into a retirement community, assisted living, or a smaller home, you know how overwhelming that task can be. Decades of possessions fill every room, every closet, every drawer, every attic, every basement, and every corner of the house. The emotional weight alone can be exhausting. Where do you even begin?
That is where Deanna Murray and Presto Real Estate Services stepped in and completely changed the experience for our family.
My sister, who is 65 years old and recently lost her husband, needed to downsize and move into a retirement community. What looked impossible to us was something Deanna knew exactly how to handle. From the beginning, she had a plan, a process, and the experience to guide us through every step.
One of the greatest blessings was Maria, an integral member of the Presto team. Maria worked side-by-side with my sister, helping her go through every room, every closet, every drawer, every box in the basement, every box upstairs, and every difficult decision that comes with leaving a home filled with memories. She helped sort through photographs, keepsakes, personal belongings, and items collected over a lifetime. She did it all with extraordinary patience, kindness, compassion, and respect. My sister absolutely loved working with her.
What impressed me most was that Deanna understood this was never just about selling a house. She understood that my sister was navigating one of the most significant transitions of her life. After losing her husband, she was leaving behind not just a home, but a chapter of her life filled with memories. Deanna and her team treated that reality with genuine care and sensitivity.
Presto coordinated everything. They helped prepare the home, coordinated donations, arranged movers, worked with our attorney, guided us through offers and negotiations, and handled countless details that I never could have managed on my own. Whenever a challenge arose, Deanna already had a solution.
Perhaps what amazed me most was that my sister did not have to come up with money upfront to make any of this happen. The costs for the services, coordination, moving assistance, and transition support were paid through the proceeds of the home sale at closing. During a stressful season of life, that removed an enormous financial burden and allowed us to focus on what really mattered.
Before this experience, I honestly did not know a company like this existed. Deanna Murray and Presto Real Estate Services provide far more than traditional real estate services. They provide leadership, organization, resources, compassion, and peace of mind when families need it most.
There is simply no way I could have accomplished what Deanna and her team accomplished for my sister. They transformed what felt like an overwhelming and emotional burden into a smooth, organized, and hopeful new beginning.
Deanna Murray and Presto Real Estate Services earned our highest recommendation and deepest gratitude. They helped my sister move into the next chapter of her life with dignity, confidence, and peace, and they gave our entire family the priceless gift of knowing she was cared for every step of the way. Their pricing was extremely reasonable and my sister sold her place within a month near her ASKING PRICE! And PRESTO, her home was sold! Thanks again, Presto and Deanna Murray! read more
