"I couldn’t be more pleased with our experience working with Ann during our relocation in 2022.
It was initially very overwhelming trying to handle prepping our home for sale, arrange for temporary housing and find a new home while both my husband and I beginning new jobs all during the craziest real estate market in years.
Our house is a nearly 80 yo home with few of the amenities of a newer home. The other agents we spoke with didn’t see the positives that were very clear to Ann. She was such an amazing cheerleader for our little house. She is also so incredibly knowledgeable of the Highlands/St Matthews neighborhoods.
We had so much to do in a very short time. Ann set up a calendar of events to get our house quickly ready for market. She had easy and helpful recommendations to get the place in show ready condition and helped us arrange for cleaning and handyman services. As it came time to list, she wrote the most glowing listing description and her photographer did such beautiful work.
My husband and I were already relocated when the listing went active. It was a wild 48 hrs.! We had several over asking offers with complicated time sensitive clauses. She help us evaluate and organize all the offers and counteroffers, explaining the pros and cons of each. It really helped use make the best choice for our family! I would 100% recommend Ann to anyone looking to relocate to or buy/sell in Louisville."
