Sahel was an excellent real estate agent and a major help throughout our home search. I appreciated being able to rely on her experience and honest perspective as we considered different properties. She spent a great deal of time touring homes with us and gave us thoughtful, direct feedback on each one and its location. She pointed out both the strengths and the potential concerns, which helped us make more informed decisions.
Her professional network was one of the most valuable parts of working with Sahel. Sahel connected us with contractors she knew and trusted from her own experience, and we were very pleased with everyone she recommended. We now have the contact information for several dependable professionals we can call in the future, which we greatly appreciate.
I was especially impressed by how Sahel managed the negotiation and closing process. After the inspection, she followed up on the specific issues she knew were important to us. She took the initiative to obtain professional opinions and repair estimates, which gave us a much clearer understanding of the risks, possible solutions, and likely costs before closing.
She also took the time to explain every stage of the home-buying process. She walked us through the steps, answered our questions promptly, and made the offer and counteroffer process understandable. She coordinated closely with the lender, contractors, and the seller's agent, which kept the transaction moving forward. From the first showing through the final signature, she was responsive, practical, and consistently ahead of the next step. We will keep working with Sahel in the future!
