David and Amy were looking for a home in Sandy Springs with at least five bedrooms, a finished basement and a good backyard. We looked at older homes and new construction. They found a neighborhood with a great location in Sandy Springs with one remaining lot. We worked with the builder to customize the floorplan. They were able to pick out all of the finishes. They love their new home!
Here’s what David had to say, “I don’t usually write online reviews unless someone (or something) is exceptional. Becky Morris falls into that category. My wife and I are extremely happy we used her as our agent. We bought our first home pre-construction, and Becky guided us through the process every step of the way. And there were a lot of steps. It was a lot of work, and we couldn’t have done it without her help. Becky was very responsive and knowledgeable. We endorse her 100%.”
