Our Closing & Tenant Coordinator
Ensures that the hardest and most stressful part of the sales process is buttoned up and stress-free.
We do more than rent and sell houses. We solve problems. We create solutions. We connect the dots. We are the space between where you are and where you are going. Many agents think their most important job is satisfying the customer.
We believe that satisfying the customer is simply the MINIMUM requirement for staying in business. We work constantly improve our systems, processes, and services to go well beyond the standard level of service provided by most agents.
A true professional with a natural gift of gab. Amara is not just a knowledgable go-getter, but clearly a people person. When entering the world of real estate, I personally feel a very important piece when you are selecting an agent, is to also take into consideration not only the 'hard skills' that an individual can learn, but the 'soft skills' that aren't taught. Amara is the real deal total package, folks. What also makes Amara unique is that she has a background in multiple markets + different types of real estate experience. Ie, commercial, personal, investment.... I recommend Amara in a heartbeat! Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and for being authentic.
