Jackie was the realtor assigned by my mortgage company to work with me during a work-related relocation from Vermont to Mississippi. Before making a trip to MIssissippi during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jackie and I talked about my preferences for location, needs and desires for a house, willingness to undertake remodeling projects, and general price range. She also arranged to send me listings of homes and review listings of homes for which I wanted additional information. For the 2-day house hunting trip, Jackie worked with me to narrow down the list of homes and created a plan to see all of the homes (plus a couple extra!) during the trip. Jackie graciously listened to what I said and we incorporated that information to owners of homes that I did not choose. One of the first homes that I saw ended up the finalist. Jackie helped me put together a reasonable offer and counteroffer which was accepted. Jackie is professional, knowledgeable, honest, responsive, hard-working, a good sense of humor (which can go a long way in buying a new house), goes out of her way to be of assistance and to find an answer if she does not know something. I had no doubt that she had my best interests in mind when making recommendations, suggestions and assisting me throughout the house search, contract process, house inspection, and repairs. Yesterday, about 6 weeks after the house hunting trip I closed on my new home. I could not have done it without Jackie. If you are looking for a realtor to help you find a new home, I highly recommend Jackie.
