Listing Agent for the Seller
Kamron R.“Jay Valento was on top of it during the entire process. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable,
and I felt very comfortable relying on his recommendations. Jay is polite and friendly most importantly, he communicated with me continually on each turn of events and responded immediately to each situation as it arose. All of this was even more important to me because I live out of state, so I counted on him to handle everything,and he did not disappoint.”
