Holding $4300 of my earnest money. Beware in entering into an agreement with this firm. As I can't speak to every agent that works here. I would say that this definitely applies to the listing agent Ann Allen and the broker. I entered into contract to purchase a house though an assumption. Three days after proceeding with the purchase I discovered that the interest rate was misrepresented. As a result, we decided to cancel the contract, since the seller was intentionally misleading. After a few days we re-entered into contract accepting the higher rate and giving the seller the benefit of the doubt. There were two contingencies set in place in our contract. One of those was a financing contingency, that we would obtain financing by a certain date and if not we were able to cancel with a full return of the earnest money. This is standard. Secondly, we had a contingency that we would sell our house prior to "x" and if we could not, then we had the right to terminate and get our earnest money back. Fast forward two weeks, contingency deadlines are fast approaching. We have zero offers on our house. Heartbroken we make the sad conclusion that we must terminate on our dream to buy a house we loved. Qualifying for BOTH of the contingencies set forth in our contract we thought it would be unimaginable to not get our earnest money back. We were unable to sell our house and we obtained a denial letter from the lender and requested our earnest money to be returned. The seller's agent Ann Allen is stating "we jerked them around and wasted their time"(13 days listed as contingent) and now they are not going to release the earnest money. They will settle on releasing half of it to us. The options are we can either take zero or half. That house is still currently listed for sale, while we are having to deal with the financial stresses this organic has put on us. This is theft and breech of contract all under the advisement of the realtor. This organization is petty and will stick it to you when given the chance.

I highly recommend Ann for your real estate transactions. She and her team are very professional and they are resourced to cover all your needs, appraisals, financing, renovations, interior design, tax preparation, property management, new construction and pre-owned homes. She has a great handle on the market and is very data backed. In my 10+ years of buying/selling real estate and doing taxes, she was the first & only realtor I interviewed who knew what a Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) was and how to get one. She really knows her stuff and she has a heart for first time buyers which is why she knows of all these incentive programs to help get you through the door. She helped both me and my mom find homes and got us both good deals. Dont miss out on partnering with her.

Ann Allen goes beyond any expectations you would have in a realtor. Myself and my husband moved to Texas during Covid-19. Needless to say this was a very stressful time. However, Ann went out of her way not to just find us a rental home but also our dream home. She was always available to answer any of our questions. She found information that benefited us because we are both veterans. She even kept looking for us when we got frustrated with the housing market. Ann is not only a great realtor but she became a great friend. She has gained a life long customer because of her great skill, attention to detail, communication and negotiation skills. She is also impeccable when it comes to researching builders and finding information about properties. You will never go wrong choosing Ann Allen as your realtor. She is absolutely the best.

We dont know how to begin describing the level of service that Ann provided. As first-time home buyers, we needed trustworthy guidance and a caring hand to lead us through the journey; and Ann did just that. She listened to our wants and needs, gave expert feedback on them, and was patient with us when we changed them over the two months we worked with her. Aside from her unmatched sincerity, integrity, and professionalism, we also went with Ann for her data-centric approach to her job. Were numbers people, so we were delighted when Ann drew up charts and spreadsheets describing the market, our feasible options, and various homes values later in the process. For a real estate agent, she has an appraisers eye that really helped when we were ready to make offers. Ann was exactly the right person for us and listing agents have told us how much they enjoy working with her as well. We now have our first home- a dream we didnt think was feasible in this market nor at this point in our lives. She is too kind to take credit, but Ann made this happen. We cannot describe how grateful we are to have crossed paths with her. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Ann!
