Love Notes From Our Buyers

Coco Whitaker was extremely helpful and thorough as well as flexible and friendly as she helped us find our new home. We had a very tight timeline (due to job) and an even shorter window (due to a long weekend in which we were visiting from our of state) to find a home. Our budget was also very set. Coco took the time to schedule a number of viewings and walked us through the pros and cons of each one. However, when her true value really showed was once we made an offer. Coco walked us through each step in the process, made several solid recommendations and anticipated potential concerns. I have no doubt that Coco did everything in her power to protect us as homebuyers and was always looking out for our best interest throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Coco to anyone and will always use her in the future.

I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Coco! She truly took the time to understand my needs when searching for a new home. She provided listings tailored to my criteria and if she came across a property that didn’t meet all my specifications, but thought I might like, she explained her reasoning while acknowledging it might not be exactly what I was looking for. Throughout the process she consistently checked in with me and never made me feel pressured to make a decision. Coco always offered her honest opinion and treated me like a family member in search for the perfect home. It was clear she had my best interest at heart. She was always available for calls, texts or property showings, and I never felt rushed or pushed at any point. Her communication was always clear and prompt, which kept everything on track. She was incredibly patient and knowledgeable offering insightful advice on market trends, potential investments value, and what to look for in a home. Thanks to Coco’s experience, dedication, friendly approach, and helpful homebuyer tips (especially for a first time homebuyer), I was able to navigate the process with ease, felt supported every step of the way, and truly couldn’t have done it without her!

Coco is everything you could want in a realtor. She is thorough, patient, knowledgable, resourceful and only wants what is best for you. Her goal is for you to find the house you want so it can become your home. Coco had numerous houses for us to view in the neighborhoods we were interested in as well as a few new neighborhoods to expand our search. When we found "the house", she demonstrated excellent communication skills with the other agent to close our deal. She negotiated for us and was very efficient. We were lucky to work with her and love being in our dream home.
