When it was time for us to start getting serious about purchasing a home, we researched realtors online. We narrowed our search down to four local realtors, based on a number of qualifiers from Zillow and Trulia reviews/statistics.
Zugell was among the four realtors that we met with in person and interviewed.
We asked each of them the same questions, and walked away the most impressed after meeting with Zugell. She is genuine, down-to-earth, great with communications, and very approachable when you have questions about any part of the home buying process. Due to her reputation and satisfaction of previous buyers, most of her business is by word of mouth. One of the deciding factors in picking Zugell was that we got a sense that she would fight for us when it came to negotiations with sellers and their agents.
Although we apparently were a little pickier that we thought we would be as buyers (although Zugell would never admit that we were picky), Zugell showed us over 60 houses and was very patient with us. She was flexible with our work schedules and when we wanted to see a house last minute, she was always able to make arrangements. Overall, throughout the entire process, we felt very comfortable with her and felt as though she always had our best interests at heart. She never discouraged us from placing offers that were not as competitive as the situation seemed to dictate. As first time home buyers, she encouraged and coached us during negotiations to get the best deal.
Zugell not only has a valuable business directory, but when asked, always recommended businesses (lenders, titling co, etc...) that were good fits for us.
With Zugell, we enjoyed our home buying experience. If needed in the future, we would absolutely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone else that is looking to purchase a home. read more
