| | | | | |  |  |  |  | | Summer is all about soaking in the magic of long days and evenings that stretch on forever. It's the perfect time for spontaneous adventures, whether you're hitting the beach, hiking in the hills, or simply relaxing in your backyard with a cold drink. Embrace the warm breeze, fire up the grill, and enjoy every moment of this sun-drenched season! | 
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | | "We really cannot praise Julie, Sara, and the rest of the team enough for the effort and attention they put into helping us secure an amazing home. As first time homebuyers, and considering how competitive and quickly things move, you could definitely say we felt intimidated by the whole process. However, the level of professionalism, communication, transparency, and patience they exhibited helped us feel so at ease throughout the entire process. Never once did we feel pushed, swayed or influenced into doing anything we didn't feel 100% confident in, and they were so patient with every question we raised, doubt we had, or comment we made. We had a couple friends ask us what advice we would give for other first time homebuyers and immediately I said to connect with the right team and everything else will fall into place. We always felt right at home with Julie and Sara, who treated us like human beings first, and clients second. I would recommend Julie Mollo's group time and again, and I know who I'll be calling when future me is looking again. Thanks again to the team, we could not have done any of this without you!" - J |
