“I am very impressed with Connie Millsaps. I’m an out of state buyer so I leaned heavily on her abilities to make everything work out in this home purchase. She was constantly in touch with me and made sure that all of the details were covered. She worked with the seller to negotiate the transfer of funds and saw it through to completion. She is thorough and very professional. It has been a pleasure to work with her. Thank you very much Connie.” “We contacted Connie in our search for a mountain property in N. C. She made herself available when we could make trips up and stomped through the woods with us to look at remote sites. After finding the perfect property in the pouring rain she led us through the purchase process which was somewhat different than in Georgia. We would definitely use her again.” “Connie was listed on a road sign for a house we wanted to look at four years before our actual home purchase. We didn’t wind up buying that house obviously, but as first time home buyers, we felt very comfortable with Connie. She was so knowledgeable, patient, and explained things in a way that we understood. She was so encouraging and good to work with that we kept calling her to show us houses. When we finally found ‘the one,’ she was amazing to help us negotiate. She bent over backwards to help us out and she will forever be considered a friend. So grateful for her!” “Connie was wonderful to work with. She was very attentive and extremely responsive. Any questions we had she took the time to answer and explain very throughly. She helped us through the extremely difficult process of buying a home with ease, and made it so much less stressful for us.” “Connie Millsaps is the ultimate real estate professional. We worked with Connie over a period of approximately 3 years and she found the perfect mountain home for us. She is honest, patient, and so very helpful. Since we were not familiar with the area, we relied on Connie to make recommendations for properties, home inspectors, and closing professionals. She was prompt with replies to our many questions and always followed through with resources, assistance, etc. We have worked with real estate personnel in different states and by far, Connie Millsaps was the very best. We highly recommend her for any real estate needs.” NUMBER 399 • PAGE 31
