We live in Utah but purchased a second home in Virginia. Pam was awesome through the whole process. She helped us find the perfect home and then her follow up and assistance all the way through closing was fantastic. This was especially helpful since we were in Utah during inspections, appraisal, and other follow up items. Easy to work with, knowledgeable, and an advocate for making sure you are well represented. Can't recommend Pam enough!

Pam was wonderful to work with! She was very knowledgeable and didn't waste our time looking at properties that didn't meet our criteria. And during the process of closing, she was very helpful with any questions we had and responded in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Pam.

Pam is a consummate professional. We were looking for a second home in an unfamiliar area. She worked with us for more than three years until we found the home that was perfect for us. She helped us learn about the area, patiently showed us many houses in a wide ranging region, and helped identify both the positive and negative aspects of the many houses that we saw. Once we identified the "perfect" home, she guided us through the bidding process and provided excellent recommendations for a home inspector and a title agency.

Pam Dent is the ultimate smart, hard working, professional realtor that gives her all to her clients whether they are buying or selling. Pam assisted me in buying a home and spent many hours working around my special needs and budget to find the perfect property for me. She actually found the house I bought when I had overlooked it in the listings. When life took me elsewhere just a couple of years later I immediately contacted Pam to help me sell that same home, and again she came through with great advice, expert negotiating skills, and lots of patience and good humor. I only wish I had Pam

Pam helped us buy our first house. We were lucky to have her expertise, since we didn't know a lot about the process. She was also tough/defended us - there was no way we were going to be taken advantage of in negotiations or the inspection process, which was important since we were so green! Yet, she was also realistic with us in a competitive housing market. We wouldn't have been able to snatch up our house if Pam hadn't been so responsive and help us make offers quickly!
