“Janelle came highly recommended by a friend, whose opinion I respect. She came across as enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and honest. She marketed the home through every channel available, was diligent on open houses and pitching at her office and others, called all previewing brokers back, was always available to show the home if needed and most of all, kept me posted on the status of the home throughout the transaction. The results showed: She sold the home! I will use Janelle on all my upcoming projects and recommend her to people who want a real estate professional.” -Steven C.
