Mary helped us find a home we loved in about a month. We were on a time crunch and Mary didn?t hesitate to show us houses for hours on end, multiple days a week, for several weeks in a row. She was always super attentive and responsive. I?d recommend Mary to anyone looking to buy a home in Martinsville/Henry County!

As someone who faced selling a family home from out-of-state, the choice of Realtors was quite an important statement of trust. I could not more highly recommend the services of Mary Rives Brown, who coordinated the entire process for us, from repairs to estate sales through her local contacts. This is what Quality Real Estate Services are meant to be in My Book!!

Shes patient and knowledgeable. Everything we needed. She showed us well over 20 listings and was brilliant with strategy once we found the home we wanted.

My experience with her was terrible. I called her after finding a property that she had listed. She was very knowledgeable about that property and other properties. Unfortunately, the property I was initially looking for was already under contract. When I inquired about another property, I was informed that it would be under contract by the end of the weekend. She did not even check or give me the opportunity to place a bid on the property. I tried contacting her several times in the following days to ask her some questions, but she never answered or returned my calls. I found another realtor and I actually purchased the home that she said was going to be under contract. I think her action was not very good for a realtor with her experience and expertise of the market. Would not recommend her to any one looking for a home based on my dealings with her.
