Client Quotes

"Jessica Canty rates 10 on a scale of 1 to 5 - both as a real estate agent and as a person. We worked with several agents, some of whom were relatively good, but most of whom were very disappointing - then we met Jess. There really aren’t enough superlatives to describe our experience with her. She was extremely responsive, tenacious, thorough, sensitive to our needs and expectations, patient with our peculiarities and fun to work with! We have purchased and sold many homes over the decades, and I can sincerely say we have never worked with a better agent – not even close. Jess’ follow-up was extraordinary and continues to this day. We found the home of our dreams and made a life-time friend."
