I remember thinking how attentive and patient she was during our conversation and that put me at ease. After discussing her credentials we proceeded to schedule an appointment. Upon our first meeting she came ready to work and access the damage. We knew our home needed work and Sandra gave us some "tough love" ideas and assignments. She was so professional and yet friendly and told us what we needed to do to get the best value for our home. What I also like about Sandra is how she'd make suggestions and ask for our input. She made us feel as though we were a part of the process and not just sitting on the sideline, even though we usually leaned in her favor. Although Sandra had other clients and responsibilities she was accessible and proactive. She's extremely skilled in the market and very conscientious. She has a very keen sense for detail that I've truly learned to appreciate. She doesn't settle for mediocrity and that's an invaluable quality in any real estate agent. We've since met Sandra's requirements and recommendations and we're beyond pleased. Sandra's an excellent Real Estate Agent and I would put her up against any top agent in the country. That's just how great she is!!!!!!!

They found multiple investment properties for us, advised us regarding bidding strategy for the one we wanted, and stayed on stop of it even after the seller went with another buyer. The persistence paid off as the seller contacted Amy directly after the other buyer walked which enabled us to secure the property without it going back on the market again for a competitive bid. She has also been helpful in determining which renovations are essential, gauging optimal rent based on the current market and actually finding tenants for our vacant units. In short, our experience has been fantastic and we look forward to providing repeat business.
