Erika was definitely the best part of the home-buying process for us. Was available even on holidays! As a first-time home buyer, we needed a little extra guidance. Went above and beyond to answer any question that we could have. Not only did she help negotiate a better price for us, but also negotiated an entire irrigation system to be added as well as landscaping and seeding. Having Erika as our Realtor® was an asset due to all of the local connections she has in the area. I never had to wait more than 5 minutes to hear back from her, which is huge especially when buying a home throughout the holiday season.
We worked with Erika for quite some time because I was in contact with her for months prior to when we actually started actively looking. Since we were first-time buyers it made a difference that Erika would reach out to check in with me regularly and remind me of things that I may have forgotten. She was easy to talk to and never bothered no matter how many questions I asked. I felt confident in her expertise and it made a stressful first time a lot easier to handle. With the market the way it has been, if it weren't for Erika we may not have been able to secure a house at all.
Erika could not have made our home-buying experience any more amazing! We were new to Traverse City, and we wanted someone who had a lot of knowledge about the market here. Not only did she listen to help us narrow down our search, but when it came time to call in more professionals (inspectors, bankers) Erika had contacts that were also a pleasure doing business with. She definitely has her pulse on all things real estate in the Traverse area. She's patient and loves what she does, and it shows! I would highly recommend her!
Erika helped us find our dream vacation home over the course of a year, never giving up on us, and continued to show us potential homes. When we finally found “the one”, she worked hard to help us finalize every detail, even offering to call anyone we needed. She is efficient, speedy, professional, and friendly. She was always willing to help and answer any questions we had. I could not recommend Erika enough. If you are looking for someone, look no further. Erika is your home cupid!
