Buying an home? Hire Emily Holmes!

Emily Holmes was referred to us by our realtor while in the process of purchasing our home, and we could not have been happier with our experience! Emily (and her team) were super responsive and thorough, always making herself available for questions along the way. She was a big reason for such a smo...oth transaction (worth noting especially while still in such a competitive and crazy market), and we recommend her highly for any real estate legal needs!

Fantastic RE Attorney!

I've worked with Emily to sell one property and purchase two properties with my husband. We love her- she is willing to go above and beyond for her clients and always advocates for what is best for the clients. We highly recommend Emily!

Best attorney in my 10 years as a realtor

As a realtor for 10 years, having a solid team is essential. I have worked with several other attorneys before working with Emily and once I found her I could not believe how terrible the service I was accepting before her!!! Her service is top notch!! She takes such good care of my clients and it ma...kes me feel at ease because I know my transaction will go smoothly! I exclusively work with her unless she’s already representing the seller and I can’t use her on the buy. I have lost count how many transactions we have done together. I have used her for buy/sell and short sale / foreclosure and will recommend her to absolutely everyone.

Great for first time buyers & sellers

We have worked with Emily both as first time buyers and first time sellers, and she has been all around awesome to work with! She was so patient with us as first time buyers/sellers, really taking the time to explain the process in terms that we would understand and to answer our (many, many) questio...ns. She was extremely responsive via email, phone, and text, and helped us be as organized as possible and on top of all of the different items involved with the buying and selling process. She worked seamlessly with our agent and the rest of our team, helping shepherd the process from offer to closing. Thankfully we didn't hit too many road bumps but when issues did come up, she was able to give great advice and formulate effective responses. Emily and her team were a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell!

Skip the rest and start with the BEST!

After going under contract for the sale of my condo, my realtor introduced me to Emily for representation. Working through some tricky obstacles in that sale, Emily was there step by step to answer questions and explain processes to me! After the sale, it was a no brainer to have Emily be my attorne...y for the purchase of my single family home. Emily again showed great care for my journey and could not have made things easier. Emily was available when I needed advice, tough when I needed her to be during all reviews and negotiations, and left me with zero questions around process or what was next. A good attorney may get you to the finish line, but a great attorney will be so thorough even after the final document is signed, that she may save you cash for some really nice dinners to treat yourself. No detail was left uncovered, and I cannot say enough great things about Emily and her team! I would 100% recommend Emily for my friends and family and she will be my first contact in the future for any needs.
