- Highly likely to recommend

Bought a home in 2011.

Summary:

t is our pleasure to recommend Carolynn as an expert realtor in Orange County! As first time home buyers who were very picky, we were grateful to have Carolynn provide us such wonderful guidance. We did not know the area very well and she never hesitated to take us ALL over Orange County - we must have visited 4-6 cities. She always did her homework and could answer just about any question about the neighborhood and the school districts. We changed our criteria a number of times and with her expertise, she was able to narrow down the viewings to homes we would be interested in (this saved us so much time by not visiting homes that she knew we would not like). She was spot on about all the values of the homes we were interested in and was very frank on when we should pass on homes. There was never any pressure to purchase a home and she knew a great deal when she saw one.

Carolynn surrounds herself by a great team which will be a benefit to any home buyer. We were thrilled with the mortgage broker she works with on a regular basis, Sherry Kushell. Now that we have finally purchased our home, she has great recommendations for everything else that follows, such as people for various repair services (all which are reasonably priced).

On a personal note, we feel like we have made a new friend. Carolynn started off as a business contact. Her caring attitude and genuine concern about finding a home that would make us happy made her more than just our realtor. I smile at the patience she displayed continually as we brought along our rambunctious kids for viewings. Families will be happy to work with her! I guarantee you that Carolynn will make this process easy for you. We are thrilled with her and if the need arises again, will certainly be working with her in the future.
