- Joelle

“Loved everything about working with Taylor and Janell! Such an incredible experience. Felt heard and cared for. They understood our desires when looking for a house and did not try to push us into anything we were not comfortable with.”

- Roger

“Janel always looks out for us as her clients. She communicates exceptionally well, and has a great eye for details. The photographs and drone imaging of our house by her son Taylor was a huge key to selling our house. We would highly recommend Janel and Taylor if you are considering selling or purchasing.”

Let’s work together.
