Lou was so friendly, accommodating and supportive throughout our process of buying our first home. We viewed multiple of her listings and throughout the whole process she was a breeze to deal with compared to some of our interactions with other agents. Lou had a genuine interest in what we were looking for in our first home and as a buyer we felt really supported by her guidance along a stressful journey which was made better by having Lou on our side!
