“We recently worked with Peggy Harmatz from the Linda Friedman Team and cannot sing her praises enough. Peggy goes above and beyond at every stage of the process. She truly listened to our interests and financial parameters, showing us a variety of homes within our budget to help us narrow down what we wanted. Once we were ready to submit an offer, Peggy spent hours talking us through disclosures, then negotiated the counteroffer down before bringing it to us. Even after closing, Peggy still has our best interests in mind. She professionally went to battle for us due to some unusual situations with the sellers. She has remained helpful throughout our move and after.”
