Trusts and Real Estate

Colleen helped us through our parents estate and clarified all that was required for us to complete. She was thorough in all of her work. She also helped us with selling our parents home from negotiations on final sale terms through closing. Timing is everything and she met the deadlines.

I don't think she looked out for us well enough to recommend her

I don't think she did a good job with our sale. We signed our paperwork on a Friday, and the buyers were closing on a Tuesday. We had a small window issue (around $400 per the invoice) that we agreed to repair and had paid for in advance (the glass company made a mistake and had to repair after clo...sing). After checking the wire amounts, there was a $3,500 difference in the wire amount. When pressing Colleen for an answer, she could not properly explain to me the reason it was withheld. I called back with my wife to get clarification and eventually was hung up on. Yes I was mad, but when terms of the withholding were changed on us and not communicated, that is a big deal. There was nothing in writing explaining an amount was to be withheld, the realtor told me a small amount over and above the repair would be withheld (the repair was about $300, the withholding ended up being $3500). In general, I feel she was relatively passive in the process. Most communication was initiated on our part throughout the whole process. This issue (regarding the $3,500) was not at all communicated to us until I reached out to her, and frankly I wouldn't have known about it unless I called her. I am disappointed in her service, would not recommend.

various matters

I have known Colleen since 2007 but it seems like forever. She knows what she knows and does it well. She cares for all her clients on more than a business level.I trust her with my life she has handled many different things for me and i recommend her to any and everyone. If she can not help you she... will direct you to someone who can.
