What those we work with say
“Really pleased. The home finder agent was excellent in finding me the right property, especially as stock is very low in the area. Laura has also been excellent in getting back to me in a timely manner, ensuring everything goes according to plan and checking the lease to make sure all is fine. It’s been a very positive experience and I would highly recommend.”
“She is really nice and aware of everything. She could not be better!!!!”
“Dawn always approaches service to clients with excellent communication and quick response.”
“Mike is the best I have worked with. He is very responsive. When we needed to modify one of our policies he was very helpful. He has even responded when he was on vacation. He treats us as if it were his own company. Simply superior.”
“Kate is one of the best account managers I’ve had the pleasure to work with. She’s resourceful, responsive, proactive and does an amazing job with project management on any new changes we’re implementing. She also continues to review our program for any inefficiencies and works diligently to solve any issues.”
