Leah was great to work with from start to finish!! Throughout the process, Leah and Elyssa were great at pulling comps and giving us their thoughts and observations on each house, both good and bad things. We felt like we could truly trust their input! They ended up finding us our dream home off market which we would never have found without their help! The negotiation process was a little stressful with the seller, but Leah helped us navigate and land on an offer that worked for our budget and for the seller. Would highly recommend Leah, especially to first time home buyers who are overwhelmed coming into the process, she made the process so much more manageable!

Leah and Alyssa are not only fantastic realtors, they are also genuinely fantastic humans as well! They worked hard to make the home buying process smooth and stress-free, which was so appreciated after going through one of the toughest and most stressful years of my life. I am so grateful for the new home I now get to share with my kiddo and will definitely use them for any future real estate needs.
