We can’t say enough good things about our realtor Erin Jocelyn. In a tight Shorewood market with multiple buyers fighting over very little inventory, she found us the house of our dreams. Erin is the first realtor we’ve ever worked with who completely understood our needs - often more than we ourselves realized. More than once, she gently dissuaded us from getting attached to properties that weren’t a good fit. She was like a bloodhound in picking up the scent for the “right” house and then pursuing it with the tenacity of a bulldog. That’s how we managed to buy a house that wasn’t even on the market yet! These days, buying a house can be extremely stressful, but we felt safe because Erin watched over us from the very first meeting right up to the day we closed. She has a keen sense of value and showed us how to invest in neighborhoods, not just houses. As an expert in old houses, she helped us see potential and possibilities, while being careful that we didn’t get carried away and exceed our budget. She kept us grounded with the costs of restoration and repairs but showed us practical ways to reduce those costs. As a bonus, Erin has impeccable taste, being an accomplished artist. Factor in her boundless energy, experience, and integrity, and you get the perfect realtor to have on your side.
