I really appreciate you taking the time to share this, Dorothy! It truly means a lot. I know how overwhelming it can be moving to a completely new area, and I really enjoyed helping you both get to know the Bay Area and find a spot that felt right. You asked all the right questions, and it was great seeing how thoughtful you were through every step of the process. I’m so happy we found your home in such a short timeframe.
