"Morgan led us through the process of buying our first home together From the start, she was responsive, thoughtful, knowledgeable and proactive She helped us navigate a difficult "seller's market" by communicating honestly with us and orchestrating lots of unusual and time-sensitive paperwork. Morgan was detail-oriented, she anticipated our needs as first-time buyers, and was a pleasure to work with. We would absolutely encourage friends and family to choose Morgan as their real estate professional."
"Extremely supportive, listened to what we wanted and full of ideas and suggestions concerning the potential place we could be interested in and where to go; good insight of the surrounding neighborhood and very open and constructive in her opinion when she thought the selection was not a good idea or why it is a good idea too. Would always recommend her to others looking for a home."
"Morgan helped me in purchasing an apartment in downtown Providence! I definitely recommend working with her if you're looking for an informative, responsive (usually within minutes, yes believe it!), and friendly realtor with a great experience. This was my first real estate transaction and Morgan guided me throughout the process. She also connected me with the right people who were extremely helpful as well!"

Declutter and Organize
Your house and rooms look larger with less items in them - a house that is overflowing gives the impression there is not enough stor- age space
Repair & Maintain
Make updates and repairs to improve appeal and value. Addressing small issues prevents buyers from feeling like they have a to-do list as soon as they move in
Consider Staging
This can be a great way to breathe new life into homes which may be in need of upgrades and im- provements
Focus on Curb Appeal
This is a buyer’s first impression of your home! Consider hiring a professional landscaper if your budget allows.
