Testimonials

what my clients are saying

As a military family buying a home from out of state without seeing it in person, we were anxious about the process. But Megan made everything incredibly smooth and seamless. She was quick to schedule a video walkthrough, which allowed us to get a real feel for the property. Not only did she guide us through the best way to submit an offer, but she also went above and beyond by negotiating repairs with the seller on our behalf, ensuring we got the best deal possible. Thanks to her expertise, responsiveness, and commitment to our needs, we were able to secure our dream property! We couldn’t be happier with her service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable realtor.

Megan has a ton of knowledge on the area, loan process, and many other aspects in the home buying process. She has great communication skills and worked hard to take care of us. This was the first time home buying process wasn’t stressful, as she would answer all questions, and took care of everything. She is very relatable having a background working with a diverse set of clientele, to include military. She is a great person who will try to help no matter what, and exceeded my expectations.

As I was buying unseen, across the country and with a tight timeline, I knew I wanted someone who not only knew the area, but actually enjoyed it- someone who had fun with it. Someone who wouldn't say how much they loved an area, while living as far away as possible. As my agent, Megan put up with my hyper specific requests, tight timeline, and inexperience with kindness and knowledge. I had apprehensions purchasing within Sumter, as I have lived in a major metro for almost a decade, but Megan didn't make me feel judged for my worries.

Megan is the best! My husband and I were looking to buy a home in Sumter. We met Megan through a listing for a home we were interested in seeing. On a weekend trip to Sumter, Megan showed us that home and several more. We didn't find exactly what we were looking for on that trip, but Megan had a feel for what we wanted. Within three days of us returning to Texas, she sent us emails of new homes on the market that she thought we would like. She was so right. We put in an offer on one of those homes and through Megan we got our dream home. We are so grateful to have found her. She has always been available to talk or text when we have questions.

Megan is great to work with. She found several homes that met our criteria and gave us personalized video tours of each as we were not yet in the area. We found just the home we were looking for and the whole process was quick and efficient. She was with us every step of the way and I can highly recommend her services. Also being a fellow military spouse she knows the challenges involved with PCSing as we were doing.

The purchase of my new home involved a cross country move which meant I couldn't be here in person during the process. Megan went far beyond her professional expectations. She communicated with me weekly, spent a lot of time detailing amenities, updates and work progress. Megan helped me successfully make a number of very crucial decisions. She sent me many detailed photos and videos of the property as the transaction progressed, also alleviated a lot of the stress and apprehension regarding the move. Megan has been more than a "five star" agent and I recommend her to anyone planning to buy or sell property in this community.
