    Vanessa was amazing to work with! She’s incredibly professional and ethical, and we always felt like she truly had our best interests at heart. She gave helpful suggestions every step of the way and was always quick to respond—whether it was setting up a last-minute showing or answering our many questions about a house. Even after closing, she was still there to support us. What could have been a really stressful and overwhelming process ended up feeling smooth and manageable, all thanks to her. In the end, we found our dream home, and we’re so grateful to have had Vanessa by our side throughout the whole journey.

    Vanessa recently helped us buy a new house and sell our old one. We have only good things to say about our experience! Vanessa is professional, knowledgeable, and well connected within the real estate business in the area. She is an excellent communicator—a great balance of direct and personable. She always kept things moving forward while considering the perspectives and needs of all parties involved. She let us know not just what she was saying to other agents but also *how* she was saying it. We also appreciated that Vanessa presented the details around every decision we had to make thoroughly and objectively. She offered guidance and advice when asked, but we never felt pressured to do anything we didn't want to do. Everything felt easy and smooth in both of our transactions. We felt a lot of trust with Vanessa and would absolutely work with her again!

    Vanessa provides a very personal experience and has been my go-to realtor for many years. She has helped me rent my townhouse several times. She also assisted with matters I couldn't handle when I wasn't in the area, as well as provide some great referrals.

    My husband and I had the pleasure to work with Vanessa in a difficult sale of our fixer-upper home. Vanessa was wonderful at marketing and extremely hardworking when selling our home. We received an offer within a month of the listing of the home. I cannot say enough nice things about her. She is dedicated, trustworthy, kind, caring, and quick to respond to your needs and questions. She will give you solid advice and reduce your anxiety. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs to purchase or sell their home.
