    Maria came highly recommended from a neighbor who utilized her services on multiple sales and purchases. She did not disappoint. EXTREMELY knowledgeable as she has been in the business for years. She and I had a wonderful partnership with the sale of my home. Very professional, and a very genuine person who is easily relatable to. I'm not a typical 5 STAR person when it comes to reviews as I feel 5 STARS are really Top of the Bar and almost impossible to obtain from anyone. I absolutely give her 5 Stars on every category in this review. Knowledge, Expertise, Amazing Responsiveness, Great Partnership with Negotiation. Maria listened my desires and needs and formed a great partnership and we sold my home within my desired timeframe; and price. Maria partnered extremely well with the Agents showing my home, seeked feedback and we implemented as necessary. It was truly a relationship and partnership. If you are looking for a genuine, caring, responsive, intelligent agent; Maria comes highly recommended by me.

    We recently worked with Maria to purchase property in the Jasper, GA, area, and we couldnt be happier with the experience. Maria was knowledgeable about the area, attentive to our needs, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. She took the time to understand what we were looking for, provided thoughtful guidance on each property we considered, and was always available to answer questions. Her familiarity with the community and her relationships with local contacts made everything smootheraEUR"from initial search to closing. What stood out was how Maria balanced professionalism with a personal touch. She genuinely cared about helping us find the right property, not just making a sale. We highly recommend Maria to anyone looking to buy in the North Georgia mountains. She made the process seamless and enjoyable, and were grateful to have had her as our realtor.

    Looking back after the sale, Maria helped facilitate an extremely difficult property for me to sell. She made it all happen from start to finish. I highly recommend anyone to use Maria no matter the type of property sale or purchase. She was extremely attentive during the whole process. I cant thank her enough for all she did to help me sell this property!

    I recently worked with Maria to sell a property, and I couldn't be happier. She were incredibly knowledgeable about the market, provided expert guidance throughout the process, and helped me sell a property that several agents before her were unsuccessful doing so. Her professionalism and attentiveness was truly outstanding. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable real estate agent contact Maria

    Mariah is the only Realtor that I trust. My brother and I have used her for years and have found her to be an effective and detail oriented agent. She has helped us with both commercial and residential transactions and has been on the ball answering questions and fixing issues throughout the process. I highly recommend Maria if you are in need of a Realtor.

    Answered Questions

    How can I save money on a mortgage loan?

    Ask a trusted Realtor for their recommendations for local mortgage lenders. Local lenders who are members of the Local Board or Realtors as affiliate members are working hard to earn and keep the business of the local Realtors and their clients. Other local lenders who your Realtor trusts to do an excellent job for their clients are the best. Then shop a few lenders, closing costs, interest rate etc.. to find the right one for you. Do your shopping around in the same month so that when they check your credit it's only a small bump in your credit.

    How do I get a value on property?

    Find a local Realtor you and your mother agree to work with and have that agent work up a market analysis. This will include comparable sold and active on market properties so that you can see what similar properties have sold for and are on market for at present. You can pay for an appraisal as well but it may not be necessary, since your local Realtor should have current market data. If the property is super unique and comparable properties are hard to find or non existent then the appraisal my be the way to go.
