Review

Jennifer Steiger, 03/2024

5 stars

There are not enough words to express how AMAZING Jenn Gates is. We have purchased several homes in our lifetime and Jenn by far is the most thorough, caring and compassionate realtor we have ever had the pleasure of working with! She was constantly looking out for us and always had our best interests at heart. She was never pushy or impatient and sincerely just wanted us to have the home of our dreams. She showed us over 50 homes and with each one she treated us with the same excitement, enthusiasm and detail as if it were the first home. She was extremely knowledgeable about not only the market but the region as well and was able to bring things to our attention that we would not have considered otherwise moving from a different state. She truly is one of a kind and in a class all of her own.
