Dana was incredible to work with. She was extremely professional and patient with my 97 year old aunt (the seller) and with me. She got back to me promptly to answer all of my questions and went out of her way to help me problem solve along the way. I highly recommend her for her professionalism and her willingness to go above and beyond.

Very helpful and flexible. Was able to work with my night schedule. Overall would recommend to anyone. She was able to give me numbers to help start up my house and was super nice and knowledgeable. She helped make my first time home buying experience easy and as stress free as possible. Overall she has so much information to help anyone sell or buy a house. Her negotiation skill is excellent, I trusted her opinion on what the next step the negotiation process with the houses we had looked at together. Once again if your looking to sell or buy a house I would highly recommend Dana.

Our experience with Dana was excellent. She gave us selling advice that we would not have considered on our own. Listing with her was easy and enjoyable. With her guidance we were able to sale our home in just 4 days for our asking price. Much faster than we ever anticipated. Her professionalism made the sale and closing smooth and easy. I would recommend her for any property to purchase or sell. We are extremely satisfied.
