"Five stars is not nearly enough to describe our experience with Carissa. When my boyfriend I decided to for our first condo, we truly did not know much about the process. Carissa met with us provided detailed information about the process beginning to end. She was patient beyond measure with our constant questions truly available whenever we needed her. She only provided listings that were relevant to what we were looking for , when we wanted to see a showing, she had it set up within a few hours. Not only did she help us find our dream condo, but advocated for us the offer to the closing, keeping us organized clearly explaining each part of the process. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable professional, she is also so patient kind. We know that she had many other properties she was managing, but made us feel like we were important at all times. We truly cannot recommend her enough. Whoever has the pleasure to work with Carissa is very lucky."
