Carolyn's knowledge and experience of the home purchasing process is second to none and she was by our side from beginning to end! We were relocating from several states away making much of this process virtual and extremely time sensitive when it came to touring homes and getting paperwork delivered on time. Carolyn took on the challenge and exceeded our expectations by helping tremendously by tracking down people, mail and anything else that could of likely cause potential delays. Carolyn was more than professional at all times but also took and extra position on being a friend we could rely on; helping us learn about schools and doctors in the area for our children, showing us all of the abundant culinary favorites, and the many different fun activities and places to explore. It has been so easy and comforting working with Carolyn knowing we have the best and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and personable real-estate agent!”
