Denise listed and sold my family’s house in Hampstead, and I highly recommend her for anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the area. She is the perfect realtor for Hampstead: born and bred there, loves the place, and knows the local real estate market like the back of her hand. Denise is simply fantastic at what she does.
I found Denise because she had recently sold a nearby house, and I was impressed by the job she did. She provided us genuine value-added at every stage in the process. For example, I had a list of repairs I thought needed to be done before listing, but Denise helped me prioritize which were critical and said most were unnecessary given the market. She recommended excellent and economical handymen and cleaners, and I saved thousands of dollars by talking to her early in the process. Denise wrote a fantastic listing description for our house, marketing aspects of it and the neighborhood that maximized interest but which we never would have thought to emphasize. And her advice on staging was terrific: she had a vision for each room and offered detailed suggestions on what to move or hide (important, since pictures now survive forever on the internet…). The listing photos were outstanding, including aerial shots from a drone that showed potential buyers the house in relation to the Intercoastal. We had multiple offers, and Denise’s advice on which offers to prioritize and how to counter added thousands to the eventual sale price. I was extremely impressed by Denise’s ability to anticipate other realtors’ next moves during negotiations: Do not play chess against her!
Finally, Denise was patient and helpful when we had to solve an unanticipated and frustrating issue with the title that delayed the closing for weeks. When things went awry, Denise kept me calm and masterfully handled the situation. Once again, she correctly anticipated how the buyers would react and what their agent would ask for when we had to amend the contract. Her intuition was spot-on, and her advice was invaluable during this stage.
It was a pleasure to work with Denise: she is smart, level-headed, and a top-notch realtor. I have worked with several realtors in multiple states over the years, and this was by far the best (and most lucrative) experience I have had. I highly recommend working with her if you are looking to sell or buy in the Hampstead area.
