TRUSTED REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS “SOLD 24 Hours – Multiple Offers - Above List Price!” Less Than 24 hours our home was Sold! Because I work from home, I was nervous about selling my house. Teresa was incredibly knowledgeable and made the process easy and painless. My home went active on the MLS on Thursday, and by early Friday we were presented with 3 offers. Our home closed in 18 days and above asking price! Huge thank you to Teresa and The Atkinson Team for their amazing work! Meredith B. "Professional, Experienced, Effortless & Successful Experience!” I recently completed a $2M+ transaction with The Atkinson Group. The transaction was complicated and involved a 1031 exchange of another property. Teresa was an outstanding realtor who greatly assisted in closing this transaction. They are professional with years of experience. She demonstrated clear and concise communication skills, always getting back to me in a short period of time. Steve D.
