Client Testimonials

"Not only was Anissa thorough and knowledgeable but she was also a pleasure to work with. She was sensitive to her needs and showed us only properties that met our preferences. We highly recommend Anissa to anyone looking to purchase a property."
"Anissa is relentless on your behalf. She is the utmost in competence - she's quick, and efficient, but thorough, leaving no detail left uncovered. She was patient with us when we were unsure about our readiness to buy and was responsive to our requests. She answered all our questions patiently and fully. She listened attentively as we got to know each other, and that showed when she found us exactly what we'd been looking for. "Just trust me," she said. We saw the house and made an offer the next day - she was right - and advised us every step of the way thereafter. I would highly recommend her."
"My family’s experience with Anissa was excellent from start to finish. She is professional, knowledgeable, and personable. She was excellent in navigating the process, and she went above and beyond in helping us find a property that fit our needs. I would highly recommend Anissa."
"From our first interaction, Anissa made my wife and I feel very comfortable and confident that she was looking out for our best interest when buying our house. What might have otherwise been a stressful process was made quite smooth and easy by her attention to detail and patience with us. Her knowledge of the industry also was very helpful in finding movers, access to specialists, and tips for our new home. So glad we had a chance to work together!"
"Without Anissa, it would not have been possible for us to purchase our home. She knew the market inside and out from both a people and a place perspective -- she knows the homes and the realtors. This is a real advantage in such a competitive marketplace. The first three homes we looked at sold for $600k, $300k, and $500k over the asking price. Anissa got us our home for $100k under asking. Then followed up with a bunch of great contractors to help us update a few small things. We are lifelong customers!"
"My experience with Anissa could not have been better. She really stuck with me and was extremely patient and tenacious. She went after what I was interested in with real gusto. She had plenty of ideas of her own but listened to me. I hope we can keep in touch. She got me my dream house."
