Shelley recently helped us find and purchase our new vacation and future retirement home during the height of COVID-19. Our mortgage loan officer referred her to us as we live out of state and did not know very many people in the area. Shelley asked us a lot of questions to learn about our wants and needs as well as setting us up on a portal to review available homes online. She never made us feel pressured and she was not pushy. Once we found a home we were interested in, she arranged for a video tour. Suited up with facemask, gloves and video gear she took us through the home virtually. She was so thorough we felt as though we were actually there. She was very response to the extensive list of questions we sent her and quickly sought out the answers to any she didn’t already know. Shelley was very proactive and out front of the situation leading us through the entire process. Her extensive resources/professional references helped us choose additional services we needed such as lawn and pool care. Purchasing a home, especially from a distance during a pandemic is stressful. Shelley was very professional but at the same time friendly and fun. Her competence enabled us to enjoy the experience and make our dream come true. We would not have been able to make this happen without her. She exceeded our expectations.
Shelly in our mind deserves more than five stars. We have never worked with a real estate agent that went above and beyond like Shelly did. Having bought and sold ten properties in our life we feel well qualified to make that claim. In this crazy COVID world we are living in now we purchased our condo in Plantation Golf and CC unseen. Shelly was wonderful in easing our concerns with a walk through video of the property going over every nook and cranny answering every question we had. When we made our offer and it was accepted ( which also got a little complicated) the inspection was scheduled and Shelly was there also for that along with the inspector answering all our questions. We then came to Florida from Texas for our walk through and closing. At this time Shelly was going through a very tough illness and was not able to be with us. She arranged another agent who was great also to get us through the process. Even though being very sick she stayed in touch with us right through the closing. We stayed at our property for three weeks and were so pleased that Shelly was able to come visit us, bringing beautiful gifts and stayed with us for a couple of hours. What a wonderful conversation it was as we both got to talk about our life paths. If we know of anyone seeking property in that area of a Florida we will highly recommend Shelly. She was the best agent we have ever dealt with, a true professional.
Shelley was awesome, very involved and helpful. Very knowledgeable and made things easy for us to understand.
