CarLee helped us purchase a beautiful house!! We drove to multiple cities, far and near, day and night. Yes, we covered many miles- with a smile. We were on crunch time to get a house, but still very selective, and passed on several properties. Through it all, CarLee remained calm and positive- and was always ready to go, even at a short notice. Thank you.
I highly recommend CarLee and their business. You've truly learned this business from the best, your dad, John. I'm proud of the work John has done as your mentor and parent. Thank you. I will be back!!!
