My wife and I were relocating to Princeton IL from out-of-state and selected Melissa Burrows, Managing Broker and Owner of Success Realty to find us a homefast! Her entrepreneurial background in local real estate investing and property management was key during the selection process, but her professionalism, her commitment to communicating, and her tireless availability to our hectic schedules went beyond the norm!
Melissa listened to our wish list, researched market availability, coordinated local inspections, negotiated purchase agreement, and located financing options to accommodate a closing
