We just bought our first home and can not thank Kiki enough for all her help! We knew very little about what to look for in a home and Kiki guided us through every step. She made sure we took our time to figure out what we wanted and not rush into something. She always gave her honest opinions about every house we looked at and we are so so happy with the house we chose! We would highly recommend Kiki and Hristo realtors. Thank you!! - Katrina & Will
