Great experience working with Lynsey for both the sale of our old property and new purchase. Very responsive, personable and excellent communication. Helped us through the process and mitigated a lot of the stress usually associated with a home move. Would highly recommend.

Very accommodating, knowledgeable and low pressure was a great experience working with her. Always answered questions and calls quickly and followed up with a list of things to ask or go over after every interaction. I would highly recommend!

Lynsey was so great! I am from out of town and she was very accommodating, her schedule was flexible, and she was very responsive. She didnt put on the pressure at all just trying to make a sale. She really wanted to make sure I found the house right for me.
