Very patient and good communication

We had the pleasure of working with Judy. She was very professional, patient, and accommodating throughout the process. I can be quite impatient and demanding at times, but Judy handled it with grace and took the time to work with us. She made the process simple and easy to understand, and we truly appreciate her effort. We recently purchased a property with her, and it already feels like home. Thank you very much for your time and dedication. We highly recommend Judy and the Team at Eves to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Patient, polite, and always available, highly recommend Jimmy

As a first-time homebuyer, the process can feel overwhelming, but Jimmy made the entire journey seamless and stress-free.He is incredibly dedicated and always available whenever I want to view a property. Because of my busy work schedule, I often needed to view homes after hours, and Jimmy was always extremely flexible and accommodating. Throughout the process, Jimmy was exceptionally polite, patient, and never rushed me into a decision. He always provided honest, valuable opinions on the properties we looked at, ensuring I made the right choice. If you want an agent who genuinely cares about your journey and goes the extra mile, Jimmy is the absolute best!"

Smooth Sailing

Our experience with Kelly was amazing to say the least, we had just under one month until our daughter was here and needed a house asap. We had been looking for months but felt no agent took us seriously due to our age, this all changed when we meet Kelly and the amazing team at Eves Real Estate. Within 1/2 an hour of us leaving the Real Estate firm Kelly had sent us multiple properties all within our budget and needs. It was as simple as scrolling through a catalog, we saw our dream home, messaged Kelly and within 2 days we had viewed the house and were ready to put an offer in. Kelly made it incredibly smooth and easy for us to buy our home. She is extremely lovely to work with and always goes above and beyond so the buyer doesn’t have to lift a finger. If we had any question day or night, we knew we could email and within the hour Kelly would have answered and was ready and waiting to help with the next step. When we come to buy our next home we already know the exact Real estate agent we want to buy through again and that will always be Kelly, the care and support she has for her clients leaves an ever lasting warm patch in your heart when you know someone has the upmost respect and care to put your family into a home. There were no stones left unturned when knowing property details and Kelly had all the paper work to show us every detail about the home once again sealing our trust in knowing our home was going to be everything that we were looking for. If your looking to buy or sell please go through Kelly at Eves Real Estate, I would love for every first home buyer to have the same experience as us.
