Leslie Emery is hands down a 5/5 when it comes to west coast real estate! My wife and I met Leslie through a listing she had in Saddle Creek. Although the listing she had did not fit our family, she on the other hand did. Unlike other agents we have experienced in the past, Leslie was not pushy and did not oversell her listing. This attracted us to her and made us feel like she genuinely had interest in our desires and wanted to help us find our dream property despite our circumstances. (We were in the process of listing two large parcels of land inland when we originally met her.) We had a vision and timeline and Leslie respected both! Per our request, she met us at another property in Saddle Creek we discovered online, and we sat down with her and discussed a strategy to purchase it. In that moment, Leslie gave us great market perspective and helped us come up with a reasonable offer. We submitted our offer and went through a period of negotiation before reaching an agreement. She helped our family negotiate over 20k off the selling price and ensured that we received a proper inspection. (Sellers disclosures are not always full disclosures as we found out in this process!) Leslie also set us up with Gris Bettle at MSC who took great care of us on the financial side. Leslie and Gris were a great team and made my wife and I feel comfortable throughout a stressful 60 day period. I will do business with MSC in the future because I trust their process and believe their staff seek to do what is best for their clients.
The safety and health of our customers and staff are our top priority.
