Kristy's Reviews

My girlfriend and I recently bought a property through Compass working with Rachel. Rachel was FANTASTIC! We know of Rachel as she has supported some of our friends in the past who raved about her. We are just over happy with everything Rachel has done for us.
From the moment we first met to start the house buying process to the moment we closed and more, Rachel has been amazing. She made everything so so easy, took on, owned and managed all the tricky parts of the process, communications between the lender and sellers and took a huge weight of our shoulders.
Rachel was extremely professional and was absolutely wonderful to work with. The Compass portal to support us with our house search was great and included all the details we needed to set up viewings and more.
I highly recommend Compass and Rachel if you are purchasing a new home and we will be sure to always use Rachel and Compass in any future home purchases.
