Sue and her team are #1 in the area. They are professional, honest and valuable. We have been clients of hers since 2011. Originally they were set as our property managers, assisting since we are a military family relieving of all the stresses that come along with property management. They make it easy and they are trusted with the right decisions along the way. Most recently we were ready to sell and they were also the listing agent. They made selling our home seamless and so easy! All virtual and electronic documents for closing. I will always recommend and thank you Sue, Jenny and the team!

Great team! PCSed here right after the hurricane two years ago and wasn't able to see the rental in person before hand. They were very accommodating and were able to do a virtual viewing. When we arrived at our new place everything was exactly as expected and we were very happy. Very trust worthy team and we never had any issues or trouble getting someone to come out for maintenance issues ect. Our move out was smooth and over all best company we could have chosen. If we ever get stationed here again. We'll be sure to choose the Sue Cruddad team!

Ms. Kavanagh and her team were on top of everything from the word go. We could not have asked for a better agent to represent us during our house hunting, negotiating and closing. Service after the sale has been just as amazing.
