“We received a referral to Heather from our also excellent Keller-Williams realtor on our Cumming house sale. Our decision to select her as our Realtor for the Sale of our mountain house near Vogel Park was also an excellent decision and we are so very thankful for that referral. Heather was outstanding! She is incredibly responsive to every query o … r question. She’s very professional, incredibly thorough in her preparation and comparisons, well understands her markets and the economic environment she works in, and worked diligently on every single aspect of the process. She explained each phase of the plan thoroughly. Our sale was handled beautifully. This was especially noteworthy because we had to move internationally before we even could get the house listed. Because of distance and Covid, the Closing had to be handled remotely. The entire process went very smoothly. The Mountain Life Team concept was incredibly successful. Potential buyers were well-screened and vetted. We can’t think of anything we would have done differently or that didn’t work out completely successfully! And, we couldn’t have picked a more hard-working or genuinely friendly person to have handled this effort! A very sincere thank you for your efforts, Heather! You were excellent! Thank you” Read More ▾

We started our search and Brooke never lost patience when we could not seem to find "our" house. On days that we couldn't make it to Blue Ridge, she would rush o … ut to a new listing and take a video for us and walk us through the entire property. She knew what we liked and what we were looking for and just kept looking until she found it. With Brooke's help, we closed on our dream mountain home and came away with a new friend. I have no doubt that we will stay in touch with Brooke. GO DAWGS! Thanks, Brooke! Thanks, Kent! Thanks, Emily! You all helped make our closing easy and fun” Read More ▾

Kellie insisted we should return to Hiawassee & look … @ 2/3 new listings & just make 1 more visit to the “Birds Nest” high on the hill overlooking the stunning Lake Chatuge. Suddenly with the “last” look I knew this was the right place & also it will pay for it’s way, a major blessing.
