Report
When it was time to sell my house I didn't know where to begin. What's important to update and what's not? I needed help and I'm so grateful I reached out to Shay Johnson. She took charge, compiled a "to do" list and helped me prepare and stage my home. The results were amazing! Needless to say, we had tons of interest, multiple offers and we sold the house well above asking price. The feedback we received from buyers confirmed I made the right decision choosing Shay for her talent and advice. I highly recommend working with Shay to get the most for your house!
