Matt & Janine Wachter
""Mary is professional, flexible & trustworthy."

"Thank you for making our first home-buying experience a wonderful one. You really paid attention to our needs and asked the right quesitons to find out those needs. Thank you for all of your recommendations too. We had a great time touring homes with you, and we hope you enjoyed it as well!"

"Fantastic- highly recommend!"

"Mary was amazing! As a first time home buyer, I expected the process to be stressful. It was in fact just the opposite experience when my husband and I purchased our home a few months ago. We owe it all to Mary who helped us every step of the way. Not only did she find just the right home for us, she also informed us about all the programs available for first time home buyers, and guided us through the entire process. I could get a hold of her whenever I needed to. And when I called and e-mailed her multiple times throughout the day, and during the holidays, she returned my calls and e-mails promptly and was always helpful, answering all my questions with a smile. She was incredibly flexible and was even willing to meet with us before work! She made the entire home buying process, even the last minute issues, a good experience for us. A huge thank you to Mary for her knowledge and tireless follow through. I would highly recommend Mary to anyone in the process of purchasing a home."

Matt & Alicia Perrone
"You always thought first of what was valuable for us, not for yourself. We enjoyed working with someone who was so open and approachable. We came away with a sense of trust and a feeling that you were genuinely on our side in our quest for the perfect house. You did everything we could expect and more. We chose to work with you because you took the time to thoughtfully discuss our questions and to discuss the possibility of renting. What stands out most was the amount of time it took to find the right house, and your patience in seeing the process through. Alicia and I needed to come to terms with both the market conditions in the Madison area, as well as the compromises we would have to make to find a house we could be happy with, and afford to buy. Through all of that time, you were exceedingly patient, and open to our viewpoints- never pushing us in any direction. You also provided great recommendations for painters and electricians after the sale.

You were the first realtor I've encountered who defied the negative stereotypes. I cannot tell you how much Alicia and I appreciated your patience. I think you did a great job of helping Alicia and I focus on resolving the underlying issues whic initially frustrated us in our search, without being pushy or condescending. "
