by Kevin


I found my house by driving through the neighborhood and seeing the For Sale sign. Once I contacted Lisa she was able to get us in to see it that night, got the offer submitted and negotiated, and had the agreement to purchase all done that same night. She rocked the whole process and helped me every step of the way. Thank you Lisa for being awesome!!
