"The Modern Solutions team made our dreams come true! Our apartment was sold without fuss or drama, to an offer that well exceeded our highest expectations. Thanks to Lori and Clare’s tireless work, knowledge of their industry and professionalism, I think we set a land speed record with our sale and concurrent purchase of a new home for our family. They listened to our hopes and vision for our future, and stayed true to what our needs and desires were every step along the way. A new chapter of our lives has begun and I am reeling from our good fortune of having had The Modern Solutions Team help bring us here." - Adam and Brenda S. | Seller & Buyer

"Clare, Lori and Sandra sold our unit at the high-end of our goal, at a price-point that other realtors had told us was unrealistic. They were able to provide critical services we needed that no other realtor could have provided. As for the selling process, they were confident and decisive on what needed to be done and guided us with the best advice on timing, strategy, and selling price. I am so thankful that we chose them, and I am not exaggerating when I say that Clare, Lori & Sandra were life-savers for us." - Linda Y. | Seller

"Clare is an absolute gem. From the outset, she served as our strongest advocate and was available to us 24/7. When our purchase hit a few bumps in the road, she worked tenaciously to smooth out any issues and make sure all parties were satisfied. Above all, we consider ourselves lucky to have found an agent who we implicitly trust. We can’t recommend her highly enough" - Edward & Yvette O. | Seller & Buyer
