Sonia was retained to sell a challenging property involved in a probate; a previous agent had tried and failed to close a sale several times.  Sonia came in with a great attitude, deep knowledge, confidence, and connections; when things got tough, she exhibited patience and optimism that resulted in a good result for buyer and seller.  We would not hesitate to work with Sonia again!

 I had been trying to get a probate property sold for way too long.   I had gone through several realtors who were unable to get the property sold.   I reached out to a friend who had just sold her home and I inquired about the realtor who helped her.  I was told by my friend that the realtor had done very well for her and her family, and she was highly pleased with her. This is when I was given Sonia Pleasant’s name and phone number.   I contacted Sonia and explained to her what I had been going through with this property and I just want it sold.  Sonia visit the property and we got papers signed as her being my new realtor.  I can remember Sonia telling me “I will get this house sold for you.”  The house is now sold!   Sonia made the impossible, possible!!   I am highly pleased with her and highly recommend her as your realtor.  

Thank you so much Sonia!
