"Lorene was outstanding in marketing and selling a home for me. She is a hard worker and a go-getter. It sold very quickly above asking price and I attribute it all to her willingness to jump in and do the work. She even showed the house all day on a Sunday…her dedication paid off and I got an offer in just a few days. She explained every step of the process, and kept me updated frequently- if you want to sell your home quickly without a lot of hassle-Lorene can get it done!"

Dana Rodgers

"Lorene was a 10/10 every step of the way during our home purchasing process. She was able to help us negotiate details on our purchase that we wouldn't have thought otherwise and was incredibly patient with us through every text/call/email throughout our search. She's a true pro who has renovated homes herself, so also was able to give sound advice on some of our projects we want to accomplish in our newly purchased home. We will undoubtedly want to work with Lorene again and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a Real Estate Professional in the Nashville area."
