"Rachel did a wonderful job at meeting our wants and needs throughout the entire process. It was our first home purchase so it was a big decision for us and Rachel encouraged us the whole way. She was persistent in negotiations to get us the fairest possible purchase even though it was a complex sale. Rachel was so accessible and patient! We asked to see the condo we purchased on numerous occasions and she always made it happen no matter how short of notice I gave her! She was friendly throughout the entire process and did an excellent job at communicating what was happening at all times. When we had questions about our purchase she was transparent and informative which helped us make a decision. Thank you!"

"Fran was the most attentive, detailed, considerate, and assertive realtor I have ever dealt with. She was kind to my shortcomings in that I am an extremely young person to be buying a home so she explained MANY basic things to me. She was timely in every manner as well as assertive in getting any and everything I asked. I would HIGHLY recommend Fran to anyone!"

"Definitively would use Deborah Groll again... Hands down this was the smoothest real estate transaction that I have ever been involved in and all we had to do was trust Deborah’s recommendation on this journey. Her experience, knowledge and connections to reputable support services made this a truly seamless experience for us. Thank you again Deborah!"

Curtis was knowledgeable and patient. No pressure at all. We weren't sure we were going to buy. We looked at several units before we found the right one for us.

I am a relatively new, small business owner and this was my first time looking for a commercial space. I never would have been able to find the perfect space had it not been for Tracie. From the start, I knew she was going to be wonderful. Aside from her kind and caring demeanor, Tracie means business! I felt so fortunate to find a broker who was on my side, doing all she could to find me a space that fit my needs and wants (which changed several times as we progressed) Tracie was very patient with me! She also was punctual and prepared every time we met, taking me from building to building, and giving me the full run-down of every space. She was always available by phone/text/email any day/time. I truly felt that I was a prioroty for her and she made this process very smooth. Thank you, Tracie! You have my highest recommendation!

I have known Tracie for 7 years in both a professional capacity and, subsequently, a personal capacity and can confidently say that she is a hard-working self-starter and a person of integrity. In all project capacities, Tracie has always shown commitment and ambition. She is tenacious in understanding her client's needs and is committed to providing the attention to detail that is needed for success. Tracie has a broad range of skills and I enthusiastically recommend her! My family now lives in the southeast, but if we were to relocate to the southwest, Tracie would be the first person I call!

"My husband and I cannot say enough about all the help that we received from Curtis Pickett in our search for a vacation home on Fort Myers Beach, Florida. While trying to purchase a home from hundreds of miles away can be challenging, Curt was consistently on top of things, guiding us every step of the way. He remained in regular contact while directing us through the entire process. Even when we ran into dilemmas, he patiently worked us through, again calmly guiding us through a solution and put our minds to ease. Curt is incredibly organized and professional. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him because of the outstanding job he did for us. Thank you Curtis Pickett for finding us the most amazing beachfront vacation home in Florida!"

My wife and I would STRONGLY recommend Cheryl Walters (Cherie) to anyone considering buyiing or selling. As realtors ourselves in New Hampshire, we expect a LOT out of our broker. From the first call I made to Cherie, we found her to be so pleasant, helpful, knowledge and great to deal with. After spending several days with her, we could tell she was a person of character; very honest and reliable. Cherie answered all of our questions and/or got the answers for the few she didnt know off the top of her head. She followed through on every promise and kept us updated throughout the process. When we travelled back to NH after securing our contract, she handled all the details for us (inspections etc) and directed us to other great professionals (mortgage, insurance, home inspections etc.). Without this assistance, we would have been lost.
Lastly, We want to say that Cherie is a GREAT person. My wife and I are in the "people business" and we know a great person when we see them (and spend time with them). WE WOULD STRONLY RECOMMEND CHERIE TO ANYONE NEEDING AN AGENT.

I was a for sale by owner. She called me to view my home. At first I was a bit
apprehensive. Once I met her, I immediately saw how caring and honest she was. I
have never been in more comfortable hands. She got me what I wanted for my
home. She took the time to listen and her and the title company took care of
everything. She Exceeded my expectations and we closed without a single problem
within 30 days.

Trish is an amazing real estate agent. She was knowledgeable, professional, kind, patient and so understanding. She truly wanted to help me and had my best interest at heart the whole time. It never felt like her main goal was a commission - her goal was for me to be happy with my choice. Even when I was indecisive, she did not pressure me, gave me time to think things through and offered me valuable advice when I needed it. I highly recommend her to anyone. I would go back to her in a heart beat for any real estate needs. I have deal with a lot of real estate agents and Trish truly is the best of the best!
