I have always believed agents should work together on a transaction and my experience with Heather epitomized that. She was thorough, communicative, professional. I could tell she respected her buyers, me, and my sellers. I'd work with her again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Heather!
Heather is a consumate professional but also a real human being who is receptive to your needs as a buyer. In addition to being game for a whirlwind home search during my couple of days in town to look, she continued to be a resource to us throughout the buying process. While this had not been my first purchase, it was my first resale purchase in Florida and she took the time to carefully explain the nuances of the Florida contract ahead of going into that process so that I was prepared for what could transpire. Even afterwards, she provided recommendations on various trades for minor work we wanted to do on the home. Oh, and I was 5+ months pregnant when we started the process so her willingness to spend the time to ensure we got a home before the baby came was greatly appreciated! (We closed 2 months before she arrived!)
I worked with Heather and a former colleague of hers in January through July of 2018. At the very first meeting, it was very evident that Heather had a great deal to offer. She is very soft spoken and keeps her cool yet packs a punch as she is very intuitive, goal oriented, honest and caring. Very up front from the get-go, Heather offered several realistic suggestions to attract buyers. She went out of her way to help with sprucing up the landscape planting flowers herself and was very quick to take care of other projects to create minimal stress for me. Who does that?
