Testimonials
“Dennis and the McDonald Team did an excellent job in handling our sale. Our home was at the upper end of value in our neighborhood and somewhat unique. Dennis and the team were able to establish a realistic asking price and market the property through their channels effectively. Although the buyer was represented by another agent, Dennis and the team were able to keep the process on track and were very efficient in coordinating with us as we interacted to get to a very positive closing with the buyers. It was a pleasure dealing with Dennis and the team and we appreciated their prompt responses to our many questions.”

“Jamie was our agent for both the sale of our house and the purchase of our new home. Jaime was a pleasure to work with and is very accommodating. She is honest and took the time to explain everything to us. She made the stressful experience of buying/selling a breeze. I would highly recommend Jamie More.”

“Jamie was great to work with. Very professional and friendly. She knew I wanted the house and she did get me the house. I would most definitely recommend Jamie as a agent you want on your side.”
