"Annie Becker is a great professional. Her personal experience in rehabbing homes, which was my mission, was invaluable to me. All through our property search I was getting an education on the market and on the issues with older homes, inspections, contractors, etc. Once I found the house I wanted Annie was tenacious in finding comps, inspiring me to offer a low price that significantly shifted the bidding in my direction. I got a deal, and felt supported right through closing." - Betsy

"Our move from Texas to Rhode Island last December was stressful and involved a very tight timeline. With the assistance of Annie Becker, we were able to purchase a wonderful house in Middletown and move in within a three week window! Annie's extensive knowledge of the market in this area and her ability to understand exactly what our needs were made the house search a pleasant adventure rather than an angst filled burden. Annie is professional, well informed and intuitive. She is pleasant, prompt,and we are more than pleased to have worked with her. We hope to avoid moving again, but Annie will be the first person we contact should that situation arise!" - Rick & Mary

"Annie came into our life during a time of major transition, we were in the process of moving from Boulder, Colorado to Rhode Island. From our first point of contact, Annie was on it. She continually went above and beyond to ensure that not only were we buying the right house for us in the right location but for the right price. As our emotions became entangled in our decision making, Annie was always there to keep us grounded and level headed. Through all of the uncertainty involved in such a grand process Annie offered us a calming confidence that in the end, all would be well. As I sit in my little dream home writing this note on behalf of Annie, it is with a full heart and without hesitation that I recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. She is an expert in her field and a superb Realtor." - BJ & Jessica

"As first time home buyers in a new state, we were lucky to have Annie Becker as our agent. Working with a limited budget and a few specific requirements proved to be no issue for Annie, she was patient with us through the entire (lengthy) process, and after many many showings, she found us the perfect starter home. Annie is a valuable asset for any first time home buyer, she has a wealth of knowledge in not only real estate but about Rhode Island as well. Annie truly went above and beyond to find answers to our questions, calm our nerves and most importantly making sure we ended up in a home that we would be happy in. I would highly recommend Annie for any one searching for their first home, we can’t wait to work with her again in the future." - Andrea & James
