Sunshine Living Realty

My husband and I have used the realtor services of Lynn and Tim LeMaster for both the purchase of our home in Celebration in 2009 and our recent sale of that house in 2012, and we highly recommend them as real estate agents for both buyers and sellers. When we decided to sell our home in Celebration several months ago, we received gloomy predictions from our neighbors who claimed that it might take us as much as a year to sell our home in the current housing market. Instead, with the help of Lynn and Tim we received an offer that led to a final sale within three weeks of listing our home. While purchasing a home is a major decision, leading to a great many questions and concerns which Lynn is especially helpful in answering, in our opinion, selling a home is a much more stressful proposition, because there is a huge amount of time, effort and expense involved in readying a home for the market. Lynn skillfully and cheerfully guided us through that entire, daunting process from start to finish. She did an extensive, initial walk through of the house and grounds with me, and together we made a detailed list of any necessary repairs and cosmetic changes that would help our home show to its best advantage to speed its sale. After the repairs were completed, Lynn and Tim also assisted me in ?staging? our home for sale by providing plants and attractive outdoor furniture for our front porch and helping us move furniture and hang pictures inside the house to make the interior present well. Lynn also recommended reasonably priced, respectable contractors for repairs and house cleaning, and assisted us in dealing with various rules and requirements of the Celebration homeowners association. In her work as a real estate agent, Lynn makes full use of all modern communication methods, including cell phone voice mail and texting and email, and she responded promptly to every phone and electronic contact we initiated with her. Lynn is readily and conveniently accessible during not only regular business hours but evenings and weekends as well. In addition to all that, Lynn also provided to us the old-fashioned courtesy of in-person visits by her and Tim to our home to offer many different kinds of service to us that no other realtor we?ve ever known provided. Examples of these services include consulting with us as to the best means to proceed in dealing with needed repairs to the adjoining neighbor?s fence, watching over our property as if it were their own when we were out of town on vacation for a week, dropping by once a week to water the plants they had provided to stage our front porch, and even going so far as to keep the mail box free of unsightly bird debris. Perhaps the most thoughtful and generous service of all was this: when it was discovered that there were unexpected small repairs that turned up on the buyer-requested, formal inspection of our property which Lynn and I and the renovation contractors had not previously noticed, Lynn graciously offered to not only arrange herself for the repairs to be done, but she paid for them out of her own pocket in order to make our lives simpler and streamline the closing process for us. In short, Lynn and Tim are not only highly competent professionals who carefully look out for the financial interests of their clients, they are compassionately sensitive to the stresses endured by buyers when selling their home and do everything in their considerable ability to alleviate that stress. More than any realtors I have ever dealt with, Lynn and Tim go the extra mile in client service, and we are very grateful for all they did for us. We recommend Lynn and Tim without reservation to potential home buyers and sellers, and we are willing to confirm our recommendation with potential clients by phone or email if so desired.
