the BEST experience!!!!! we met Evan through Zillow & i am so thankful. he was sooo patient with us while we asked to look at 100 different houses and texted him all hours of the day! he always made time for us and when we found the house the process was so easy! you hear so many horror stories when buying but this was the absolute opposite!!!!! i would recommend everyone to work with Evan!!

Dakota was an absolute blast to work with! His confidence in his abilities paired with his proven track record are what gave us the belief that he was our guy. Dakotas professionalism and attention to detail in addition to his great communication made our home-buying process an overall enjoyable experience. Dakota understood our needs and ensured that the houses we looked at met our criteria. Dakota was great at making sure our minds were right in the midst of an ultra competitive market and his unwavering confidence stood present, even when ours was low. Ultimately, Dakota went above and beyond to help us purchase our first home and we are forever grateful that we connected with him. We are extremely appreciative of everything he did to get us to Closing day and would recommend him to anyone searching for their next home!
