Testimonials

“Shannon really helped us to narrow our focus during our home search. She helped us figure out what we really wanted in our next home. Her positive attitude and enthusiasm kept us going when we felt discouraged. We enjoyed working with Shannon so much that when it came time to sell, she was who we selected,” said Laura Reilly, LaGrange resident.”Shannon was our buyer’s agent and also sold our home. She is very thorough and immediately handles whatever needs to be done. She had great pointers for getting our home ready for showings and was an excellent negotiator. It was helpful to have someone as knowledgeable as Shannon when looking for a home. She had a good eye regarding the structural soundness of a home. I felt more confident making an offer having her input,” said Jennifer Langan, LaGrange resident.

“We picked Shannon because she was very in tune with the real estate market for this area. Thanks to Shannon, we were the first people to tour the home we wound up buying. Shannon also sold our existing home. She was very dedicated and responsive. Even on Halloween night, Shannon brought over two offers,” said Lori Reynolds, LaGrange resident.
