Your home is one of the most important investments. Be sure to pick a REALTOR that will market your home well and give you honest advice. The agent will make recommendations about how to get the home ready for sale. Together, you decide on the proper asking price. The agent will guide you through the process, helping you every step of the way.
The most important factor in determining your home's value is finding similar properties. In order for it to be a good comparable, the house should be of similar style, size, area, school district, amenities, and condition. Find homes that are similar to yours and check for any past sales, ideally no older than six months.

As a first time homebuyer, Lisa was imperative to my home buying experience. She knows the Grand Rapids area very well and is well versed in the process of home buying. Lisa had my back throughout every step and gave fantastic advice in a highly competitive market. On a tight budget we were able to find a home that I love and fit my needs.

Lisa is dedicated, knowledgeable, and truly made an effort to understand what kind of home we were going for. Previously, she helped us sell a home and worked hard to get the best price with the least amount of hassle. She has a great knowledge of local areas, contractors, inspectors, lenders, etc that made the process far less painful it would typically be. She's not pushy but she is wonderfully effective at her job and I could not recommend her enough.

Lisa did an amazing job helping us find our first home! She was extremely knowledgeable and taught us so much through out our home hunting/buying process. Lisa always remained in contact with us and always was readily available if we reached out to her. Lisa did a great job finding homes that fit our search criteria and presenting them to us. She exceeded our expectations in every aspect of our home buying process. We will most certainly go back to Lisa with any future real estate needs and I encourage everyone else to also! Lisa is the best realtor in West Michigan and we thank her for her amazing

Lisa was absolutely incredible through our whole buying and selling process. She was very knowledgeable with everything every step of the way. She always had answers to our questions and made herself available via phone or email 24/7. She is very honest and transparent and will tell you her honest opinion in a respectable and acceptable manner even if it's something you don't necessarily want to hear. What I mean by that is, sometimes when you find a house you really like, she'll keep you grounded and make sure you see the whole picture and not just the positive or negative aspects.

We were introduced to Lisa through a friend. Being first time home buyers we had NO IDEA what we were doing! Lisa proved to be extensive in her knowledge of the entire process as well as readily available whenever we had questions or wanted to jump at a house showing last minute. We loved working with Lisa and would absolutely recommend her (and have!) and would work with her again in the future!
