"Emily made my first homebuying experience truly seamless. I was buying a house out of state and was a little nervous about it being difficult, but Emily was truly my eyes and ears on the ground and directed me towards the neighborhood that I settled on, which was a perfect fit. Whenever I needed a status update or to make sure anything was moving forward in the transaction process, Emily made it happen almost immediately. As a first time homebuyer, I appreciated her patience in guiding me through my many questions. She's extremely knowledgable of Philadelphia as a local and made me fall in love with the city. Not only is Emily an incredible agent that made this an easier process than I could have imagined, she is a wonderful person who I will not hesitate to trust with my future homes. She went above and beyond and I highly recommend her as an agent. - " - Kelsi Trinidad
