YES, JENNIFER WAS VERY TRUSTWORTHY AND VERY HONEST, SHE HAS 
DONE A GREAT JOB FOR ME

>2) Was Jennifer courteous and pleasant to work with?

ABSOLUTELY, EXTREMELY FRIENDLY AND WARM

FOR THE MOST PART 
YES, THERE WERE A FEW TIMES WHERE I ASKED QUESTIONS, BUT THAT IS MOSTLY DUE 
TO MY INEXPERIENCE I SELLING A PROPERTY -- THIS IS MY FIRST TIME

>4) Did Jennifer contact you to make appointments to show your home and

ABSOLUTELY, SHE WAS VERY 
ORGANIZED IN HER SHOWING PROCESSES AND SHE WAS ALWAYS CAREFUL TO CHECK WITH 
ME FIRST, ETC.

>5) Did Jennifer set realistic contract deadlines and then meet or beat
>    them?

WE CONTRACTED FOR 2 MONTHS (JUNE 23- AUG 23) AND MY PLACE SOLD IN 
1 MONTH, SHE BEAT THE CONTRACT BY 4 WEEKS.

>6) Did Jennifer see you through the closing?

I HAVE NOT CLOSED YET...MY 
CLOSING IS NOT SET UNTIL SEPT 2...BUT, I BELIEVE JENNFER WILL BE THERE.

>7) Knowing what you know now, would you use Jennifer as your agent again? 

ABSOLUTELY, AND I HAVE ALREADY RECOMMENDED JENNIFER TO FRIENDS

>8) Is there anything about Jennifer besides the above that would be good

NO, NOT REALLY.

MY ADVICE TO YOU IS TO NEGOTIATE A GOOD COMMISSION RATE - I NEGOTIATED A 3% 
DIRECT AND A 4% CO-BROKER DEAL...BOTH OF WHICH ARE WELL BELOW CURRENT 
COMMISSION RATES WITH THE LARGER BROKERAGE COMPANIES.

GOOD LUCK -- GO WITH JENNIFER, YOU WILL BE HAPPY!
