3. "Colleen continuously went above and beyond to ensure we found a place that fit our wishes and lifestyle, but also that had no hidden surprises! She researched every place we saw and asked all the right questions so we could just enjoy the process of looking for our first place! Colleen is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and honest which we greatly appreciated! She provided us with guidance, resources, and really walked us through all stages of the process which can be incredibly daunting. We saw a lot of places over a couple months and never felt rushed to make any decisions that were not right for us. She has also remained a resource after buying which demonstrates her level of care for her clients. We could not recommend her enough! You will be in incredibly safe hands with Colleen on your buying and selling journey!"

8. "Colleen was my realtor when I got my first place at 19 years old. Being so young and excited there was little that I knew about the entire process. She had the drive and patients to not only look out for my best interest but to also explain the entire process to me. Nothing came as a surprise to me during the buying process as Colleen went through everything with me before things would happen. Deadlines, finances etcetera. I was a very picky buyer with a set budget and high expectations. Colleen never stopped the hunt and she got me exactly what I wanted and needed. I appreciated her help so much that I recommended her to my boyfriend whom also reached out to her for his real estate needs. She took the same care with his first big purchase as she did for me. I wont put words into his mouth but I know he would recommend her in a heart beat! As would I, AGAIN."

9. "Just wanted to send you a quick note and express my thanks for your efforts over the past few months. Your patience and understanding was really appreciated. I think things really worked out as best the possibly could have and I was getting really nervous at one point things were not going to work out as great as they did. Your understanding of the area and desire to not sell just any house but rather focus on the qualities of the neighborhood and the values over and above the actual house were very important to us. If there is anything we could do for you along the lines of letter of recommendation, especially on the long distance challenges I would be more than happy to put something together for you. Without question I will refer anyone I can your way for future business. Again thanks very much through all this."

10. "After interviewing a couple of Realtors, I decided to call Colleen Shorter. I had the most pleasant and wonderful experience with Colleen's services. I had previously used another Realtor 4 times and thought great of her.... but let me tell you Colleen was fabulous. She did things that no other Realtor had done for me previously. She was professional all the way! Colleen put me at ease when I panicked, she talked me through the rough spots and gave me confidence. I can't remember when I had ever had that kind of service and professionalism. My advice is give her a try, she bends over backwards for her clients."

Sue Hunt.

11. "Thank you Colleen for getting us into our new home quickly and efficiently!  Your hard work and determination made the whole process easier. The 'full video 360*' view really sold the place as well as the great pictures you took and the open houses! We will definitely recommend you!"

Warmly, Jacquie & Dan

12. "As this was my very first experience buying a property I was very nervous and vulnerable. Colleen made my experience a wonderful one & I greatly value her dedication, professionalism, knowledge, & timely exchange of information. Fantastic experience with great memories.... not nightmares."

S. Barnes

13. "I can honestly say "Put your trust in Colleen Shorter if you want to sell your home" We did! As I sit here in my beautiful new home - one that I didn't even imagine I could buy - I thank Colleen for her total devotion to ensuring the utmost satisfaction in our move. Dan and I allowed her to take over the sale of our home completely. We trusted her & she got top dollar for us while managing the offers and counter offers with ease! She explained everything and helped us understand each step along the way. Then in the process of finding our new place her patience, effiency and kindness shone through. We switched direction halfway through yet she jumped in with not even the blink of an eye, using her knowledge and expertise to find the perfect home for us! Colleen seems to sense your personalities and then designs her work around you - you become the most important person! I don't want to move again but if I ever do.... Colleen will be the one I call and she is always the one I recommend to anyone who wants to sell their home or business! Thank you Colleen! you are #1 in our books!

During this intense time, your excellent organization skills and advice guiding us through this process made it a pleasure to have you as our Realtor.
