Laurel was easy to work with and she got the job done. It was a bit of a frenzy selling a property that was not my primary residence as the trustee of my aunt's estate it posed some challenges. I am also 8 hours away so Laurel assisted with a great amount of support from getting the house cleaned and helping find services to get things done. My cousin had worked with Laurel in the past and I trusted her recommendation and Laurel didn't disappoint.
