Dana is above and beyond.
Dana's knowledge and networking in the areas market is great. Not only knowing the area but also having a great network of other realtors in the surrounding area helps in making informed decisions. She is very responsive with her getting back with information. If she is faced with uncertainty of something she will search the answer out through her extensive network. I would and have recommended her to all of our friends and family to find their perfect home.

Thank You, Dana!
During a very difficult year & what turned out to be a complicated sale, Dana was the backbone I needed to get me through. With knowledge of the business & connections with repair people, Dana came through for me in huge ways! Seriously. Hire her.

Look no further than Dana!!
Dana was our listing agent when we sold our home and we truly enjoyed working with her. She was knowledgeable, but also worked tirelessly from start to finish making sure we understood every step of the process. She paid attention to the smallest detail and her communication was thorough and clear. Signing documents was easy even when we were out of town. Dana made selling our home virtually stress-free. Meeting with us, taking phone calls, answering our questions, sometimes patiently re-explaining, helping us sell the furniture we were not taking with us . . . the list goes on and on! It couldn't have been a smoother process and we couldn't be happier. Dana is truly a gem, so don't hesitate!

Her knowledge and experience with the offer and closing process were top notch.
Detail oriented, a novice, a pro, new to the area or have roots firmly planted? Dana can help with any combination of the aforementioned! She was helpful through every step of the process from the countless showing requests, understanding when it wasn’t what you were looking for and encouraging to keep searching. Her knowledge and experience with the offer and closing process were top notch. I would highly recommend Dana if your looking for an agent!

Dana was the best!
Dana was able to come in and help us sell our house for more that what we were asking for. She took the time to tell us the things we needed to change and was there the whole time to keep us calm and we trusted her to sell out house. We wouldn’t of had it any other way. I would go with her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Dana.

Move with Dana! Can't say enough great things about her. We would not have been able to sell our house without her. We moved out of state and she coordinated and handled everything!!! She made the sale of our house possible. And she is great about keeping everyone in the loop and up to date in the process. The best part is she is so knowledgable and patient about explaining your options. She really looks out for those she represents.

Seamless process
Dana was truly exceptional. I was impressed with her level of knowledge. It was a no-brainer for me to work with her.
Dana was always available, her responsiveness was incredible, always picked up when I called or needed her.
Dana went above and beyond and helped with coordinating electricians and other items that needed to be handled. She also talked me off the ledge when I was a bit overwhelmed.
Dana’s promptness, knowledge of the market, strategic mindset, kindness, good energy made a chaotic selling process simple. I would highly recommend Dana to anyone that needs a reliable real estate agent.
It was a seamless process and if

Above and Beyond Excellent Service.
Dana was an exceptional realtor. I met her months before, when I was browsing on my own at an open house. When the time came to make a decision… I was digging through my pile of paper looking for her contact info. She helped in so many ways, referrals for anything you can imagine. Took so much off our plate. Which was beyond amazing, seeing as we were buying here and selling in another state, and moving from 2 locations. She is very knowledgeable and if she didn’t know, she found someone with the answers, rather than leaving you in the dark or leaving you to stumble through figuring it out yourself. Made sure that we found what we were looking for and did not pressure us to buy outside our comfort zone. Went to bat for us when things got difficult or ridiculous (i.e. the sellers shenanigans). She made time for us and did not make it seem like we were an inconvenience. Considering I lost count at how many homes we looked at. Somewhere between 10-20. There is no one better. I couldn’t ask for anyone better. And while this review is delayed. Sorry about that. It’s been 2 months we’ve been in our home, I know that if I asked her something, she’d help if she could.

I loved having the experience of working with Dana. I am a first time home buyer and she was there for me every step of the way. Either to tell me everything was going to be okc telling me to breath, to making sure her schedule would fit with mine, and standing next to me on closing day. I couldn’t thank her enough for everything she has done. Highly recommended!!!!

Dana will put in all the legwork to make sure you get the best deal! .
I had an awesome experience working with Dana to buy my house. She really went above and beyond to make sure I got a fair price, and I never felt like anything slipped through the cracks. She knows so much about homes—what to look for, what might need replacing, what’s just cosmetic versus what’s a bigger issue—and that helped me feel way more confident during showings and inspections. She also explained a lot about the loan process, which made the whole thing way less stressful. I definitely felt like she was in my corner the whole time. Highly recommend!

Compassionate and neutral; guided us siblings through selling our late parents' home.
Selling our late parents’ home was one of the most emotionally challenging tasks my siblings and I have ever faced, but Dana guided us through every step with incredible empathy, professionalism, and patience.
From the very first meeting, she acted as a clear, neutral voice for all of us, keeping communication transparent and ensuring my sister's and I felt heard and respected. Dana seamlessly handled the unique complexities of an estate sale—offering great advice on preparing the house, setting a competitive listing price, and managing negotiations effortlessly. Thanks to their expertise, we secured a fantastic price for the home while keeping a potentially stressful family process smooth and peaceful. We couldn't have done this without her support!"

Very knowledgeable and supportive!
Dana was absolutely amazing and made this whole process possible. When coming to Dana I had very unexpectedly started the home buying process and she walked me through everything even before I had pre-approval in my hand. She helped me get a better Lender and rate! I work late evenings and would make sure to call me after I got off! Her support made the entire process so seamless I had said to myself “this process feels TOO easy” and got scared. She made everything come to light and I’m so incredibly thankful for everything she did for my family to get us this home!

She Is Amazing
Dana was very kind all the way through the process and stuck with me for 11 Months of searching. She was able to explain everything you needed to know and wanted to make sure I knew what I was signing before I signed it. Plus she helped set up a bunch of inspections for me which she didnt have to do but did. She makes an excellent realtor and when I look for a new house after this one I hope I have her or someone like her again.

Dana is AMAZING at what she does and makes herself available to you EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!!
Dana is AMAZING at what she does and makes herself available to you EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!! My husband and I where apprehensive when looking to buy our first home, it was all new to us. Dana patiently took us to see MANY homes and would guide us through the homes showing us the beauty as well as the flaws that we over looked being new to home buying. She also went above and beyond and answered or would get answers that our Broker took longer to get back to us on. Dana was the fairy god mother for my little family and found us a fabulous home while becoming a friend in the process. I would recommend her to anyone, infact I recommended her to my sister and Dana managed to find a home too!!

We loved working with Dana
We loved working with Dana. She was willing to work around our crazy schedules and fit in plenty of showings per day because we are expecting and were on a time crunch. She knew the area well and was completely honest about the houses she showed us. If there was something she didn't like about she told us. This was extremely helpful and helped gain our trust. Through this experience we not only found our first home but we gained a new friend.

I have known Dana for about two years. She assisted in helping me sell my house and went way beyond what she was obligated to do on my behalf. I was moving out of town and had a problem with my stove while I was gone. Instead of rushing back 3 hours to deal with my problem Dana stayed at my house until someone could get there to help. I would definitely recommend Dana for anything. If I were to sell or to buy in the area again I would definitely positively go back to Dana. NO Doubts!

Wonderful .
After a rough start to our selling journey, I found a wonderful agent who understood what we needed. She understood our goals, our budget and respected our ideas and thoughts for our family.
I appreciated her direct and forward concerns and comments and honesty. I am not a game player and that was huge for me to have someone with the same personality to get the job done. Our home was on the market just a week before we had a confirmed offer. She made the process less stressful and always made herself available to chat when I had questions or concerns.
10 out of 10 would recommend Dana for all your "Home girl" needs 🏡
