"Whether LaNita or any other realtor is responsible for sales in the millions or billions of dollars or not, that in itself doesn't impress me.
LaNita will work just as hard for you regardless of the price tag. Her work ethic and integrity shine through.
LaNita is focused as can be. LaNita never once answered an unsolicited call during any of the time we were working together, be it going to a house, viewing the house, or writing up an offer. If on the rare occasion I asked a question she didn't have an answer to, she might call for clarification on it from the other agent. That would be the only time she was on the phone in my presence.
You don't wonder if she's on your side, you know it.
Due to economic circumstances, my price range changed somewhat during the course of the house hunting process, and LaNita completely understood it.
Since I don't buy houses for any other reason than to live in, my experience with realtors is limited to 3 buys and two sells. That said, LaNita is the only one for me.
Had LaNita been selling homes at the time I put mine up for sale, I definitely would have signed up with her. Fortunately for you, she does now.
If and when I put my current home up for sale, I won't consider anyone else."
