Customer Review - Lauren Shimmon
I worked with Lauren to buy my new condo and to also sell my existing condo........all during Thanksgiving and Christmas. One would think this is a very stressful time, but Lauren's expertise and advice went beyond my expectations. First of all, finding my new home was a dream. I had no plans to make an offer during our first trip. Lauren knew exactly what I liked. This was supposed to be an exploration trip only. She saved the best showing for last! Lauren already had me pre-approved and I knew what I could afford. Consequently, I was able to quickly make a decision and made an offer. I didn't want to lose this phenomenal condo. Interest rates were great, location was fantastic, and the condo was breath taking and unique. Then Lauren helped me prepare for selling my existing condo. She has an unbelievable network: the legal team, the lender, the handyman, painter, and mover. Thanks to her contacts I was able to get my house ready to list in 1 short week between Christmas and New Years. Her advice on how and when to list was stellar. Who would think Jan. 3rd during a deep freeze is a good time to list? Not me.......but she sold my condo in 3 short days. Lauren had a professional photographer take my pictures. I'm convinced that is why there were well over 200 views on MLS the 2nd day it was listed. We had our first offer on day 2, yet there were several viewings scheduled the next day. This lead to 4 more offers. On day 3 we accepted an offer. I never expected to get a contract this fast. What a relief. From there, everything went like clock work. Whenever part of the process stalled, I never knew it. Lauren jumped in and moved things along. She went beyond the call of duty. My message to anyone looking for an agent, stop looking and call Lauren. You are in great hands.
