I recommend Gretchen Jolly for all your real estate needs. I was introduced to Gretchen by mutual friends when she was assisting in the sale of their home. In addition to exceeding all their expectations, she impressed me with her professional demeanor and detailed competence. As a result Gretchen was the first person I called when I had real estate needs. Gretchen worked with me on the purchase of my current residence, the purchase of one of my daughter’s homes, and the sale of my mother’s home.Gretchen conducts her business with the highest standard of ethics and ensures the buyer and sellers are treated fairly as if she was one of them. She is the first agent to impress me with her business etiquette as well as her knowledge of the rules and laws for buying or selling your home. This experience makes it easy for her to address and quickly resolve any unforeseen issues or surprises you may encounter in the process.If you are selling a home then you will be excited to know Gretchen does not just list your property and wait for someone to call. She markets your home. She does so by working with you and recommending ideas geared toward improving the presentation of your home, both inside and out. She uses professional photographers to best capture your home’s appeal and publishes the best of these photos. She maintains an excellent referral list of qualified contractors to assist you with any issue you may need to address whether it is to increase your home’s aesthetics (curb appeal) or meet the requirements of a home inspection. Gretchen conducts an immediate follow-up on all viewings soliciting feedback from the viewers and agents and reports back to you as the seller.If you are buying a home, Gretchen has the patience of Job. She will work for you to find the best selections meeting your criteria. Gretchen will show you as many houses as you need to see until you walk in the front door of one and know you are home. She knows the market and will work with you to get the fairest price.If you are buying or selling a home and Gretchen Jolly is not your realtor then you are not using the best agent available and your experience will not be as pleasant or rewarding as mine have been.
