If I could give this boy zero stars I would. He brought a potential buyer into MY house and caused damages. Aside from playing with the gas stove and letting water run, when he couldn't tell the buyer what type flooring he was standing on (which is directly above a crawl space) he ripped up the carpet. Rather than pull the vent cover or even the hatch to the crawl space which are both within 15' of where he ripped up the carpeting, he damaged my home. He was caught on video with audio. Refusing to make it right. DON'T TRUST THIS BOY INSIDE YOUR HOME!!

Zach helped us get our retreat during a very tough market. He kept the price as low as possible. He was very prompt with all his responses. We are very happy with his service and would use him again without question.

Amber assisted with the purchase of my first house. She did a wonderful job helping me find houses in my budget and in the style I was looking for. Amber was a delight to have by my side through the home buying process.

I highly recommend Angel! She is so great to work with. She listens and totally understands your needs and goals. She is so easy to work with but you can trust that she will protect you 100%. The entire experience with Angel was perfect and I cannot say that with other past experiences I have had. So my faith in realtors has been restored by Angel! If I need to buy a house or sell again I will ask Angel to be my agent.
