"For a full century, this beloved bridge has been one of Franklin Hills’ most recognizable landmarks. Officially known as the Franklin Avenue Bridge, its Gothic towers — reminiscent of Elizabethan England — inspired locals to nickname it the Shakespeare Bridge, and the name stuck!"

"Julie and Sara helped my family purchase our first home, and we couldn’t have asked for better guides through the process. They were patient with us as we learned the ins and outs of home buying, and they quickly understood what we were looking for.
They handled every curveball with calm and grace. We can’t recommend them enough. We are thrilled to be homeowners and will always be grateful for our friends Julie and Sara."

| FULL REVIEW:
"Julie and Sara helped my family purchase our first home, and we couldn’t have asked for better guides through the process. They were patient with us as we learned the ins and outs of home buying, and they quickly understood what we were looking for. When our wishlist didn’t quite match our budget, they gently but honestly helped set our expectations.
And they are truly well-connected! It felt like every agent we encountered already knew and loved working with them. They also surrounded us with a great support network including our lender and inspectors who shared their same approach — kind, warm, and dependable.
Our path to closing wasn’t exactly smooth — we closed a week before Christmas! But they handled every curveball with calm and grace. We can’t recommend them enough. We are thrilled to be homeowners and will always be grateful for our friends Julie and Sara." |
