Josh Hood is very unprofessional RE, I have come across. I have sent texts and a call to him with not one response in a span of 2.5 weeks. Even if you did not want to help, a reply back would be niceeven better a explanation. I would never refer him or the company. Cause a employee is the face of their company.
Terrible!

Debbie was outstanding to work with. We are located out of state so this definitely added a great deal of stress. Throughout the entire process, Debbie was responsive, informative and detailed. We would not hesitate to recommend her or use her services again.
