WHAT OUR CLIENTS THINK

"Great team to work with! Very experienced and efficient in everything they offer."

- Alex Janssen 

"The Jim and Bernie Team, Bernie specifically, was absolutely fabulous to work with. The home buying process can be stressful, but Bernie actually made it fun. He is extremely well-connected and organized; I appreciated his honesty and candor, especially being a single woman buying a home on my own. I felt like he was truly looking out for my best interests as a client."

"The Jim and Bernie Team are outstanding to work with! Our family has bought 2 homes and sold a home and property with the Jim and Bernie Team and we could not have been happier. Jim and Bernie have a wealth of experience and respond to questions/concerns quickly and efficiently. Above all, the Jim and Bernie Team are honest and hard working individuals." 

- Christina Lewis
