Testimonials
"I initially listed my home on social media as "For Sale By Owner". On day one, an onslaught of real estate agents called to inform me how they could sell my house if i listed with them. One day, amid contemplating entering a "agents do not contact me" remark on my FSBO entry, a lady called to ask me if she could view my home and help me obtain my asking price. I was selling my beautiful home, not a house, and she captured the love I had for my home on our first conversation. The rest of the story is/was a nothing but love and respect for Ms. Stone.. She had a slew of ideas, suggestions and and recommendations to make a wonderful presentation of the home to the buying public. She sold my home for asking price. With out any reservations, I HIGHLY recommend Ms. Stone. Aside from being a regarded Agent, she is a wonderful and personable woman. I'm sure you'll join my sentiments once you have her as a partner in selling or buying your next HOME. Ramon T"

"I originally placed my home on the market as a For Sale By Owner. After doing this I was contacted by several agents wanting to sign me as a client. They all did the basics by making a phone call and telling me how hard they would work for me to help sell my home but only one person proved how hard she would work for me by going beyond all other agents to prove to me that her interest was not in signing me to a contract but that she cared about me and doing what was right for me. Throughout the period of selling my home Lalaine was very helpful and always willing to answer any questions I had and to do any research I asked for to help give me the best information I could get to make better decisions about the sale of my home. I have recommended Lalaine to friends and if I ever need another agent I will use Lalaine again. I was very happy with her service and professionalism. "
