We strongly recommend Rebecca Zimmerman. Rebecca is an experienced real estate professional. From the first meeting, Rebecca demonstrated her skills and experience - she explained the selling process, preparation and staging the house for showings. Rebecca prepared a sales analysis and guided us towards the optimal list price. These interactions gave us total confidence that Rebecca was the right agent to sell our home. And that confidence was well earned as she exceeded our expectations in delivering all the promised marketing components, immediately attracted buyers to tour our home, and negotiated an offer with a great price and attractive terms in the first week on the market. Rebecca has an excellent understanding of the local market, buyer preferences and the steps needed to sell a home - but more importantly, Rebecca took the time to develop a custom strategy for selling our home that resulted in an excellent sale.
Rebecca had a wonderful personality and is very supportive. We had problems and she handled them well. I would highly recommend her. Barbara
Rebecca Zimmerman was an exceptional agent and advisor for us during the listing and sales process of our home. She has a firm grasp on the market, understands buyer nuances, and just gives great advice. It was a tough time in the market, but Rebecca steered us through it and was able to achieve a sale in a very slow time. Her assets are many, but the ones that come to mind first are her communication and follow through. Those are essential skills to us, and she excelled in that critical area. She is very knowledgeable about the market and how to sell. Very savvy. And a bonus... very personable and a joy to work with. Highly recommend her. Would rate the overall service and satisfaction we received from working with Rebecca a 10+. When we are back in the market, Rebecca will be the first agent we call.
