My wife and I worked with Marji 6 years ago, on our first home, and were incredibly pleased with the level of support and service we received. This year came with a few surprises, and it became clear we needed to find a bigger house for our growing family. Marji was the first person we called to begin the process.
Now, 3 months later, we have purchased a new home and closed on our old home. We COULD NOT have done this without the attentiveness and dedication that we've come to expect from Marji and her team. She walked us through every step of the process. She answered my silly questions at all

I came in to view one of the suites and get information on that unit because it was listed available online. A lady named Tammy was very rude, and looked at me as if I didnt belong. She asked for my contact information and said she will give the sticky note to one of the real estate agents and see how he wants to proceed, which I thought that was a weird response and unprofessional. Contacted one of the agents afterwards and explained the situation, he finally got back to me and said she never gave him my information. I already knew she didnt because I could tell she was judgmental and prejudiced

I used Marji to buy and sell my home. The experience could not have been better. Marji made the process of being a first time buyer both smooth and stressless. She walked me through the process and made sure I was making a good decision. She has her clients best interest at heart.
Marji is extremely knowledgeable and well-versed in the housing market, making her an easy choice for anyone looking for a real estate agent!
