We stopped in to ask a few questions about the area as we are interested in retiring here. Even though we are a few years away from making the decision to buy Brenda Jackson sat down with us and told us about the different areas. She took in our wish list and gave us printouts of current homes available and mapping so we could see the area and get an idea of maybe where to narrow our future search down to. Very polite with zero pressure. If your in the market I highly recommend these folks.
