    I have worked with Cara for five years, researching properties and market conditions. I eventually listed my house for sale with her, in the midst of the very challenging 2025 market. Her staging and placement recommendations were first rate, and we sold the property for a fair price. All the time she was also working with me on my purchase of a new home in the area, and guided me away from potential properties that looked attractive at first glance but which would not have worked in the long run. She passed up the opportunity for a rapid commission in order to ensure that I would be happy in whatever I did choose to purchase. When I did place a contract for my new home, she worked seamlessly with the builder to make sure that the construction, inspection, and settlement processes went smoothly. I cannot recommend her -- and her team -- highly enough.

    TJ was very helpful with the purchase process of my condo. As a first time buyer he was supportive, knowledgeable with every of my questions and concerns. Highly recommend him as a realtor agent for all first time buyers like me.

    We worked with ?Jen ?to purchase a home ?during a particularly crazy time in the real estate market (2021-22), and we were so grateful ?for her help and guidance. She made a difficult process genuinely enjoyable, as we looked forward to viewing homes with Jen, since we could draw upon her experience in the local housing market and could lean on her much-needed good humor and enthusiasm for finding the right home for us. While we were thrilled to finally close on a home in a neighborhood we loved, the one disappointment was no longer having a reason to catch up with Jen! ?

    My wife and I were searching for our first home and Jen was a perfect fit! Jen was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and responsive as we looked at different homes. When we focused in on a property we thought was well out of our budget, she helped us craft an offer and negotiating strategy that not only got us the house, but also came in under asking price. In short, our experience with Jen exceeded all our expectations. We could not recommend her more highly.
