Upbeat and professional
My husband and I worked with Mary Ellen and her team to buy our Forever Home. They were always upbeat, professional, and made sure that we were informed of and included in all parts of the buying process. They made everything easier. Since our purchase, they have reached out to see if we needed other realtor services, shared real estate updates, and included us in their engagement activities. We couldn’t be happier with Mary Ellen, her team, and their services.

She listened to our needs for a new home and community and found the perfect home. She’s energetic, honest and extremely knowledgeable. We highly recommend Mary Ellen and her team! - Gina Storr
