WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
“ “
My husband and I are writing to express our pleasant experience working with Amy Kodak. We chose Amy to sell our home after interviewing several local agents and found her to be extremely motivated and eager to get our listing. We felt the highest level of confidence in her and in so many ways she exceeded our expectations. She was extremely responsive to our every phone call and text…she was always quick and professional at every level. After giving her our listing, she presented us with a buyer within 48 hours…. we were amazed!
~ John and Audrey
“ “
Amy was very patient with us on the purchase side of our next home. We were looking for something in particular and she never gave up on us and even talked us out of making an offer on properties that didn’t really check all our boxes. Bottom line…this gal had our backs! Without hesitation we would recommend Amy to either represent anyone on the sale or purchase of their new or existing home. She is our Realtor for life!
~ Maggie and Mike
Amy is a pleasure to work with as I worked with to sell and purchase my home. She has a lovely demeanor and no pressure selling style. Her thoroughness and tenacity are balanced with her charm, warmth and gentle manor. A+.
