Testimonials

Laura is a true professional badass and a master in her field. She believed in us and our house even when a dozen other agents we interviewed didn’t. She is not afraid to think and act outside the box of industry standards. When other realtor looked at our house to list it for sale for us they all went by 'The book' about what the comps said we ought to list it for. But, Laura used all of her wisdom, and years of experience to dig deeper to squeeze every bit of equity out of our house with the minimal resources we had at the time. Because of her, we got $100,000 over what other realtors said we could. This woman is not afraid to push the envelope or challenge the norm. She is aggressive, black and white, and gets the job done. She will walk you through the process step by step if needed. The best you could do is listen to hear whether you’re a buyer or seller. She truly has your best int…

I have come across a number of real estate agents who knew their craft but upon meeting Laura Baker something was entirely different. She was representing the seller but seemed very concerned about what we wanted. She was open, honest and transparent. Beyond that, she didn’t “push” us to think that the house would be gone within the hour. She was frank about the situation but had great points regarding the value of the home. When she started guiding us and consulting us about some thoughts on selling our own home and a light bulb sparked. I told my wife that I wanted Laura to represent us as well. This logic goes against any advice I have been given about hiring an agent. I did not care. Laura’s attention was second to none and her knowledge (which she is very humble about) was nothing less than refreshing.

I have come across a number of real estate agents who knew their craft but upon meeting Laura Baker something was entirely different. She was representing the seller but seemed very concerned about what we wanted. She was open, honest and transparent. Beyond that, she didn’t “push” us to think that the house would be gone within the hour. She was frank about the situation but had great points regarding the value of the home. When she started guiding us and consulting us about some thoughts on selling our own home and a light bulb sparked. I told my wife that I wanted Laura to represent us as well. This logic goes against any advice I have been given about hiring an agent. I did not care. Laura’s attention was second to none and her knowledge (which she is very humble about) was nothing less than refreshing. When approached about the thought Laura did not immediately jump on the opportunity. She asked us to take a step back and think about it. Bottom line, she was once again thinking about all parties involved which only reinforced my desire to hire her as not only our agent to buy this home but now our agent to sell our existing home. Laura came to our home and suggested that we make some modest changes. She spent hours talking price strategy with me and then went to work on putting together a proper marketing campaign which included a drone fly over for pics. As an executive, I was truly impressed with her ability to wear several hats. Laura immediately became not just a sales agent but a manager, a consultant, a marketing specialist and most of all a trusted partner. Bottom line, we got the offer we would finally accept and close on within 45 Minutes!! Laura connected me with several people within her network. This included a handyman to help us fix several items who to this day 2 years later has become part of our family. She also course corrected me on some thoughts related to financing and connected me with an amazing mortgage expert name Russ Smith. What I learned is that if Laura recommends a person or a company she genuinely views it as putting her own reputation on the line. Seems like common sense, but it’s a trait I see less and less of in business these days. She went on to help us in matters that frankly she had no need to. From my seat I thought this kind of attention would end once we closed on all transaction. Boy was I wrong.This wasn’t my first closing but it had been a good 15 years since my last purchase. I forgot how stressful the process can be. I was about to add fuel to the fire; we decided to do a simultaneous closing on the same day. We were warned over and over by others to be prepared for disasters. Laura assured me that she had our back. She made sure we were taken care of with regards the mortgage company, the title company and with our final agreements with the seller and the buyers. In summary, we had the smoothest closing I’ve ever had and wrapped up the process within a total of about 2 hours. I was ready for war. What I got was absolute perfection.Post-Sale Laura was there for us. Immediately after the close Laura stopped by several times to check up on us. By this time she had become a family friend and her visits were absolutely welcomed. She was also very attentive to the seller of the house. I should add my communication with the seller was absolutely stellar. I can attribute that to Laura who served as a constant bridge and a voice of reason. Even as recently as last month, Laura was looking out for us when she saw we had an issue with the house. Again, she had no need to but made sure she guided us to the proper resources to help us out. It’s easy to see the best in someone when they have a financial incentive to gain. What’s amazing and stunning is that Laura supports those around her for all the right reasons. Ultimately all her actions does lead to her success. Money isn’t her top focus but it is a byproduct of her hard work and dedication.In Summary I can’t stress enough how genuine a person Laura is. Moreover, she is an astute business leader that does transactions the right way. I guess the best metaphor I can use is that when Jerry Maguire had this thought of making sure the clients were truly taken care of and that business was done the right way. I have no doubt somehow he had Laura Baker in mind as his role model. Laura, thank you for taking care of our closings, our homes and our family!
