“I recently represented Vanna's clients (the Buyers) as their closing attorney. Vanna was the epitome of professionalism. The seller was particularly difficult with which to deal. Vanna was a strong advocate for her clients who successfully negotiated an agreement and saved a closing in peril. Her calm demeanor belies a cunning and skilled real estate agent. I highly recommend her!”

You were so wonderful to us in so many ways. While I know you "credit" us for getting the house sold quickly, you helped get the job done and solve so many problems.
 
Thanks for your diligence, persistence, honesty and professionalism.
 
You rock!

Dear Vanna,

 

I want to thank you again for all of your assistance in buying my first home!  As a first time homebuyer, I was really nervous about the process.  You answered all my questions, gave me advice and insight, and made the whole experience so much fun! Best of all, you helped us to find the perfect house.  I will always be grateful to you for staying in your office late with me that Monday night after I had a chance to see “THE ONE.”   I wanted to make an offer right away, and you went above and beyond to make that happen.  Thanks to your hard work and dedication, Ken and I are now the happy owners of our dream home.  We couldn’t have done it without your expertise. 

  

Thank you for everything,

Amy Price

Dear Brick & Garden Real Estate,

In learning that we were being relocated to the Raleigh NC area from upstate NY, our niece emphatically recommended the agent that she used in the purchase of her first home – Vanna Langdon.  In retrospect, choosing Vanna was the single best decision we made, as it impacted every aspect of our move.

Our initial impression of Vanna was  professional, punctual, and organized, which turned out to be just the tip of the iceberg!  Vanna invested a great deal of her time on us in a long-distance relationship, taking care of all the work leading up to our precious few house-hunting trips.  Daily updates of available homes meeting our criteria, as well as keeping track of what we ‘ruled in’ and ‘ruled out’ helped keep us organized. Vanna always, without fail, called when she said she would and did what she promised to do.  Vanna made the most of every minute of our house-hunting trips, keeping to a very stringent schedule, so we could see the most homes possible.  We valued her honest opinions throughout our search.  Vanna made sure she understood what we were looking for and seamlessly combined that information with her own wealth of knowledge of the area, guiding us to the area that best-suited our family’s needs.  Now, one year later, when we understand the proximity and travel times to the places that we each need to get to, it is clear that Vanna truly kept our best interests at the forefront as she guided us along.   Vanna’s extreme attention to detail served us well whether is was in the mounds of paperwork she meticulously organized, the timeline of necessary appointments to be made and kept (often by her as we were in NY), the inspection which she participated in on our behalf, and of course the details of closing. Throughout the entire process it was obvious that Vanna was extremely knowledgeable about every facet of her profession.   

Of all of Vanna’s wonderful qualities, the one that touched us deeply was her integrity.  As we were in the throws of making an offer on the only house we were interested in, and the pressure was on as we were on our last house-hunting trip, other offers were being made simultaneously on  ‘our’ home.  We thought we needed to offer a great deal more than the asking price as we were afraid to lose the house. Vanna did not allow this.  She felt she could get the house for us for less.  We were in awe of her negotiating skills, as she did what she said she could do, and under terrific pressure.  But more importantly, she just as easily could have let us bid higher, making her job easier and also receive a greater commission, but she did not – again Vanna put our best interests first.  We can’t begin to tell you how highly we regard Vanna!   We would, without any reservation, emphatically recommend Vanna to anyone in the market to buy or sell real estate. And to put this in perspective, over the last fifteen years we have bought/sold four homes, and Vanna is the only realtor that we have ever recommended.  We hope that Brick & Garden realizes the tremendous asset they have in Vanna Langdon.

Margaret & David McQuillan

I had the good fortune to be introduced to Vanna Langdon in the summer of 2008 when I was looking for a larger home to fit my growing family.  As a prospective buyer, I knew from the start that Vanna was our family's advocate.  She knew the areas of Cary that were options for us, the size house we needed, and our price range.  She only showed us houses that fit into those categories.  As we looked at home after home, she pointed out any flaws that we missed.  She was well aware of everything to look for.  I never got the impression that she was just trying to make ANY sale.  Her concern was making sure we found the house that was right for us.

As a seller, I naturally picked Vanna to list my house.  She advised me on what must be done to the home before putting it on the market and gave her experienced opinion on things that should be done to my home to make it more attractive.  She was always open to discussion if I disagreed with her or had questions.

Vanna is by far the most qualified real estate agent I have ever worked with, and my husband and I will call upon her again if the opportunity arises.

I hate Realtors, but adore Vanna Langdon.  Vanna doesn't have any fancy catch-phrases or slick marketing sites because she is focused on giving 100% service at seemingly all hours of every day and night.   Vanna does what she says she will do; at or before the time she says she will do it.  Vanna takes the time to personally scour the market for the ideal home (she doesn't depend on a computer to automatically sort and send the listings) and will work her butt off to find any additional information that you may request…quickly!   We received daily e-mails and correspondence from Vanna giving us updated information that was relevant and thoughtful.  If all Realtors were of Vanna's caliber the industry would have a stellar reputation.  

 

As a couple of looky-lou's from California, Vanna gave us the attention and detailed information we were looking for before making the big move across the country.   There are not many Realtors who would spend so much quality time with a family who's never been to North Carolina, didn't have a job lined up and weren't even sure that Cary was the place for us to raise our family.     

 

Vanna was a wealth of information during our exploratory visit to North Carolina and listened to our wants, needs, and concerns while looking at each home.   As first time home buyers we were so grateful and impressed by Vanna's knowledge of the houses and the Cary area.  Even before Vanna knew that our "exploratory" visit would turn into an immediate move toward buying a home, Vanna treated us as top priority clients.  

 

Most importantly, we don't know what we would have done without Vanna during the closing process.  From the incompetent seller to the less than professional seller's agent, to say the closing process was challenging would be the understatement of the year.   We are forever grateful to Vanna, for all her hard work and determination to make sure our new home closed quickly.  Vanna  really went above and beyond the call of duty with our home purchase.   Vanna will do the same for you!  It's a fundamental element of her character and personality to give this level of service and professionalism to all of her clients.

 

Sincerely,

 

Chris and Laura Silvey
Vanna:
 
Thank you so much for all of your help in selling our house. I really appreciate all of your hard work,
as well as your kind words.
 
Thanks, again. You are a blessing.

Vanna,

Well, you helped us buy the house...now you have helped me sell the house in the midst of a divorce...I hope you know how very much I appreciate your personal care and professional conduct to make the sale a possibility. I hope that in the future when it comes time to purchase another home that you'll be available to help me relocate. 
Until that time, know that my prayers are that God will bless you richly as you have blessed others in helping them buy and sell homes...which are of course, part of "the American dream". There are no words for a professional that is expert at what she does and still has a heart for people in crisis. Thanks for your guidance and direction throughout the entire process and for really knowing your business.

Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your hard work and effort in the recent purchase of my home.  Buying a home can be a daunting experience but your “extra” effort made it a good experience.

My children and I are settled in and it already feels like home. 

If I hear of someone looking to buy or sell property in the future, I will definitely recommend your services. 

Thanks again!

Dear Vanna,

Thank you so much for all of your help in getting your listing closed. You did a great job at getting every problem with this one solved. I know it was stressful on you all, but your hard work made it very easy for me to handle. You were truly one of the most responsive listing agents that I have worked with in awhile.

Thank you again for all of your hard work. We look forward to seeing you again one day in our office. It was a pleasure working with you. Until later, please let me know if I can help you in any way. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Moore,

 
Vanna Langdon recently sold my home and I wanted to let you know how grateful I am she represented me throughout the whole process from listing to closing. Vanna made this challenging situation a breeze for me. She worked very hard making sure I had everything in place before putting my home on the market. She gave great advice on what needed to be repaired and or replaced. Her advice paid off - we had 59 showings but only one came back negative in regards to the condition of my home. Everyone was very complimentary of the way the home showed and a large part of that was due to Vannas advice. I did have two offers that were not within the price range that I was willing to accept. Vanna immediately contacted me for my advice and we agreed that both offers were not adequate. When we did get a reasonable offer Vanna immediately went into action negotiating a better price. Once we went into contract and an inspection was completed, she started working with me on finding resources for getting the repairs completed by closing. In a couple of situations she contacted the repair person directly and coordinated the job. This was a challenging buyer and had it not been for Vannas expertise and drive I'm not sure we would of closed by the target date. Up until the last hour prior to closing she was still negotiating on my behalf to my advantage.
 
You are very fortunate to have Vanna as a member of your Team. Given the many challenges thrown our way during this process I never felt like I was having to handle any situation alone. She was worth double what she received financially from this sell.
 
I consider it a privilege to have worked with Vanna and am confident I got the best price I could for my home. Actually I know I did. Shortly before I put my home on the market, a home in my neighborhood with a garage (my home did not have a garage), same acreage and 200 less square footage sold for $39,000 less than my home sold for 5 months later. As you can see I was very pleased with my sale.
 
My hope is that if I ever need another Realtor, that Vanna will still be available.
 
Thanks for your assistance as well.
 
Sincerely,
 
Dennis Williams
 

Vanna,

 
I would say you are one of the best realtors I have ever worked with and I would send anyone looking to buy or sell to you for assistance!!
 
Vanna, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your hard work and guidance along the way.
 
You're a real special person!!
 
Brian and Lisa Odgers 

 

Barry and I love our home in Garner and our neighbors are wonderful!  Your patience, perseverance, and fearless negotiations were what made our purchase happen in spite of difficult issues.  I recently refinanced and was able to increase the appraised value significantly already.  I give you much of the credit, thank you! 

 
I give your name out often, please feel free to use me as yet another reference.
 
Thank you!

Dear Vanna,

Charlie and I would like to extend a HUGE Thank you for all the hard work you put into finding us the perfect house.  You were truly an answer to our prayers.  We have dealt with realtors in the past and I must say that you exceeded every expectation we had.  From the beginning you were not pushy but made yourself completely available to us.  You made the greatest impression on me when we told you that we had a set price we were willing to pay but decided to look at a few homes that were above that price and even after that you said you were not pulling anything above our original price unless we wanted to see something.  I knew then and there that you truly had our best interest in mind and was not out just to make the biggest sale you could.  You were always bringing up the pros and cons of each house and really helped to educate us on things to look for and think about. Even after spending months looking at lots of homes, you still encouraged us to keep looking for that perfect 10, even when we saw a 9.  Then weeks later we found that 10.  Once again you exceeded our expectations, you took care of everything while keeping us totally informed.  I never knew someone could be so organized and dedicated.  You went above and beyond your call of duty.   I know you know that I will never be moving again until I have to go to the retirement home, but when and if I did, I would not have anyone else selling my home or helping to buy another. You are truly a rare gem.  Please know that no words could really express all the wonderful things that you did for us but that it was very much appreciated.  You are definitely an asset to Coldwell Banker, Howard, Perry and Walston.  Please stop by and see us, you know where we live.

Thank you,

Suzanne and Charlie Harlow

We wouldn't even CONSIDER listing with another agent! You have been absolutely terrific -- very energetic, encouraging and realistic. You couldn't have done more or been better to work with. We are very appreciative. 
 
Again, thank you for everything!!!

Dear Vanna,

Thank you so much for the superb way you handled the condo purchase for my daughter and me. This was by far the smoothest, least stressful, home purchase I've ever encountered. Your almost daily, sometimes several times a day, emails kept us fully informed of the status of the purchase, even though we were thousands of miles away in California . It was almost like all I had to do was sit back and watch as you take care of every detail and task. Everything went precisely as you predicted, and Karen and I are extremely pleased with her new home.

Thanks again for taking such good care of us.

Sincerely,

Dear Vanna ,

We are amazed and astonished by your hard work and persistence when selling my parent’s house.  My brother and I had no idea that the house would ever sell.  You know how “unique” it was.  My Father built it exclusively for him and my mother.  Certainly we never imagined that the house would sell BEFORE it was put on the market AND that it would sell for $17,000.00 MORE then we were asking.  This was due to your professional negotiation skills.  We owe everything to you.  You also provided us expert advice for selling the house and you treated the transaction as if it were your very own property. I guarantee you that you will be our real estate professional for life.

Thank you very much!!

Sincerely,

Becky Watts

*Note from Vanna :

*In this instance there was an extreme bidding war for this property where all contingencies were dropped by the buyers, including the appraisal contingency, an anomaly in this business.

Re: Ms. Vanna E. Langdon, Broker, Realtor, ABR, GRI

Dear Mr. Walston:

I want to share with you what could have been the worst home-buying experience in my 32 years as a practicing professional had it not been for the beyond-the-call-of-duty efforts of one of your associates, Ms. Vanna Langdon.

The home my wife and I had concluded met our needs was listed with a "by owner" representative.  The sellers were going through a nasty divorce. Many, many times Vanna contacted the sellers, our lender and us as her client, providing sage advice, counsel and sometimes consolation for the drama the sellers created.  Had it not been for Vanna's valiant and extreme efforts as a dedicated professional, we would not be living in our home at this time.  This transaction was truly beyond the words "struggle" and "challenge" by exponential degrees, up to and including the closing.  Just to give you an idea of the pettiness of the sellers...they removed all the batteries from the smoke detectors and anything else not nailed down from the home prior to our final "walk through" inspection.  They also had significantly damaged the door jamb to the room which is now my home office in the process of removing items from that room.

Enough said about the sellers.  As the Area Medical Director responsible for 45 veterinary hospitals and 65 doctors which are part of the world's largest veterinary corporation, Banfield. The Pet Hospital , I likely understand and recognize professionalism more than most.  I can state unequivocally that Ms. Vanna Langdon is by far the most professional, tenacious, hard-working, loyal and dedicated-to-the-customer Realtor with whom I have ever had the privilege to engage.  Her ethics are outstanding and her advice and counsel demonstrated a true command of her profession.

Your firm is blessed by her contributions as were we and I simply would like to acknowledge EXCELLENCE when it is genuinely due.

 

Sincerely,
Dwight E. Cochran, DVM
Medical Director  NC/SC/TN

Dear Vanna,

After all the dust has settled from moving, it’s time we got around to properly thanking you for all of your hard work.  As first time homebuyers, Nick and I had no idea where to begin.  After our initial conversation with you, our worries began to fade.  You made the process so easy to understand!  I cannot tell you how helpful you were in finding homes to meet all of our requirements, researching sales in the area of those homes, and scheduling showings to coincide with our hectic schedules.  It takes a special type of person to give that much dedication to others, and you are truly special.

Being in the mortgage business for a year, I heard all kinds of horror stories from homebuyers.  I was expecting the worst.  Thankfully, you made every step so effortless and smooth.  When I told others about how well our house-hunting progress was going, they were always most impressed with you knowing our dogs names!  Now that is attention to detail!

We are so happy with our first home!  You really did go above and beyond our expectations.  I’m thankful for all of your great advice throughout the entire process. Your research was thorough, your attitude was positive, and the end result couldn’t have been better. 

Thanks again for everything - You’ll definitely be seeing us again when we’re ready to upgrade!

                                                                                                Sincerely,                    

                                                                                                Stacie and Nick Galloway

Being a first time home buyer can be overwhelming, exciting, and confusing.  Utilizing the help of a realtor was the best decision we could have made, as buying a home can become a complicated process.  Vanna Langdon is extremely knowledgeable in all facets of the home buying process.  She went above and beyond the call of duty on numerous occasions to ensure we had a pleasurable and flawless experience.  However, we were most impressed by Vanna's down to earth personality and her ability to communicate with all parties involved in the purchase of our home.  We thank Vanna and highly recommend her services in the purchase of your home.  

Sincerely, Lainey Carr and Brian Chiarizia

Dear Vanna ,

You were great to work with and I think your clients are lucky to have someone like you working for them!  I have never had an agent walk around with me at an inspection before and show so much care and concern for their client.

Thanks,

Dear Vanna,

I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks for all that you've done for George and myself.  Of course we've both been calling people today telling them about the house and everyone is amazed at how smooth the process has been.  I've been telling all of them how great you've been!  Something must be said for fate as things seem to fall into place but also for all the effort and knowledge that you've put into the situation.

Thank you again,
Rachel

I would like to recommend an exceptional real estate agent, Vanna Langdon, at Howard Perry and Walston Realtors in Cary (919) 874- 8788. Vanna recently helped my husband and I sell our house and purchase another. She has an excellent eye for detail, and is very knowledgeable with respect to real estate. She was always very prompt at returning our phone calls, very pleasant and patient in showing us lots of homes, and has an incredible amount of energy!!

About 8 months before we wanted to put our house up for sale, we wanted to meet with an agent and get some pointers on prepping the house for sale. I called several agents and Vanna was the only one who was willing to take the time to meet with us. She met with us and provided an accurate Market Analysis of our home, which included several tips on what would make the home more appealing to the buyers. Beyond this meeting, Vanna provided listings to us by mail, to keep us informed of what was out there on the market to buy.

In preparing our house for sale, we worked from the tips Vanna had suggested in her Market Analysis. In putting our house on the market, we were impressed with the professional booklet that Vanna assembled on the “special features” of our house, as well as the informational handouts for prospective buyers. Once on the market, we had two offers by the second day of showing which resulted in our selling the house for a higher price than our asking price.

I give Vanna all the credit for our house selling so quickly.

Vanna also helped us in finding another house … and we had to find one quickly since our house sold so fast. Vanna was incredible! She was patiently devoted to helping us find the house that we wanted. As we approached closing, there were a few times when my husband and I couldn’t get off work to meet with a repairman or inspector. Vanna readily took time out of her busy schedule to meet with them on our behalf.

My husband and I had a truly great experience working with this agent!  I highly recommend her to others looking to buy or sell their house.

Dear Mr. Robbins,

I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you what a delightful experience I had buying and selling a home with one of your realtors, Vanna Langdon. From our initial meeting Vanna worked diligently and efficiently on every issue we faced during the process. Her expertise in preparing my townhouse for the market and setting an attractive price for both consumers and myself was unprecedented. During a time when there was great uncertainty in our nation’s economic system, my home was on the market for a total of 20 days.

During the same time period Vanna assisted with the purchase of a new home. Vanna made herself available whenever we wanted to view homes. She shared with us detailed information about specific properties, neighborhoods, and construction and future plans for surrounding areas. As full time professionals, we had limited time to spend on research and comparisons. Vanna was able to maximize our time through her knowledge base of each and every property we viewed. Vanna continued to work with us through the entire process such as, participating in our walk through and inspection as well as attending the closing with us to ensure everything was as smooth and easy as possible.

Vanna Langdon comes highly recommended due to her energy, enthusiasm, vast knowledge base and her sincere desire to make your home buying and/or selling experience as exciting and informative as possible.

Sincerely,

Bobby and Jodi Myers

Dear Mr. Walston,

I am writing this letter to you to express my sincere appreciation to your organization and one of your very talented agents, Vanna Langdon, of your Cary office.

Recently, I accepted an executive position with a Cary, NC based firm and relocated from the Northern Virginia area. For my family, this was our sixth move in nine years! Given that my new employer requested that I begin my new role right away, I had very little time to search for a home.

A good friend, who also relocated to our same neighborhood, referred Vanna Langdon to me. Since we really only had a couple of weekends to conduct our search, I impressed upon Vanna the need for efficiency in the search process as well as the various, unique family requirements of our new home.

Vanna was very efficient! She listened to our requirements and only showed us properties that matched our criteria. In fact, we ended up purchasing the first home we looked at!

More than just efficient in the search, Vanna acted as if she was purchasing this home herself. She was my liaison with the builder as he was putting the final touches on our parade home. She arranged for the inspector and even crawled under the house with him to thoroughly inspect the foundation, footings, pipes, etc.! She made all the necessary appointments for the appraiser, closing attorney, walkthroughs (of which there were two!) and really was my “eyes and ears” while I was busy commuting back and forth between Virginia and North Carolina for work.

I have experienced my fair share of agents in the past, but Vanna was undoubtedly the best agent, assistant, inspector, and friend during this transaction that I have ever worked with! She is truly an asset to your organization and is a credit to your reputation!

I want to thank you for a family’s smooth transition to North Carolina and for the outstanding efforts of your agent, Vanna Langdon!

Feel free to contact me as below, should you require any further information.

Dear Joey,

My wife and I would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the services provided to us by Vanna Langdon

I first spoke with Vanna over the phone in November 97. I explained I was in a relocation situation and timing was everything. Our housing priorities were long and only a few were negotiable. Vanna quickly went to work and began faxing me a wide selection of Cary homes in the most desired neighborhoods. A 100 page detailed binder was later given to me when we met. I only had a few hours that day before returning back to Indiana. Vanna sensed my urgency and was quick to recommend we stay with a short list. She knew exactly what we wanted and ultimately led us to where we are now, Preston Village.

Vanna continued to impress me during the construction phase of our home. She called us regularly and sent us polaroids of the house. When a few building mishaps occurred, Vanna was right there making sure the repairs were completed to her satisfaction. She was the reason this house was completed on time and with the quality we had come to expect.

Our mortgage search ended when Vanna suggested I call Sun Belt Mortgage. I was able to save thousands in interest and on the down payment thanks to her referral. Vanna also found us a reliable building inspector who provided us with a detailed inspection of the house. Even today, months after closing, she is always making sure our needs are being met.

As a realtor, she is simply the best. That is why we continue to recommend her whenever we learn of a realtor need. As a friend, she will always be a welcomed family member. Thank you again for the support your office gave us during our move to North Carolina.

Sincerely,

Kevin and “Scooter” Hutchinson

Dear Vanna,

Thank you for all the time and effort in helping us to complete the purchase of our new home. You went far beyond what we ever expected from a realtor, and your professional knowledge and demeanor made us feel confident and comfortable that nothing was overlooked. Even though the process turned out to be more complicated than we first thought, your encouragement and hard work on our behalf is sincerely appreciated. We will certainly recommend you highly to anyone who is buying a home in this area.

Best of luck in the future, and we will of course keep in touch. Thanks again for all your hard work.

Dear Mr. Walston,

This letter is meant to convey my highest regards for your real estate agent, Vanna Langdon in your Cary, North Carolina  office. Vanna worked diligently with me to help me find a home in an extremely tight time frame. She ambitiously negotiated a home contract on my behalf and did not back down when the builder’s ineffective sales representative threatened to end the negotiations.

Vanna remained committed to an uneventful closing, even though the builder placed numerous construction obstacles in our path. We closed on time without surprises or unexpected expenses. Today, I am settled in my new home and would confidently refer Vanna to friends and colleagues. 

Kind regards,

Dear Mr. Robbins:

This letter is in reference to a wonderful experience I had with one of your agents, Vanna Langdon.

I recently closed on a condo and I am so pleased with my purchase, as well as the entire process, thanks to Vanna. In my particular case, I needed to make a decision of whether to continue renting or to buy, all within a 2-month time frame before signing a new 12-month lease. I decided to buy; however, I was literally in the dark regarding the whole buying process. At that time, Vanna went beyond the call of duty, in my opinion, to expeditiously locate properties she knew would appeal to me and that were within the purchase price we had discussed, not to mention explaining the process to me in detail. I felt extremely comfortable with vanna’s knowledge of real estate and I was confident that I had chosen the right agent.

Experiencing good customer service these days seems to be a rarity, so I feel fortunate to have had excellent service especially regarding a large purchase. I believe that Vanna is a true asset to HP&W, she worked very hard to meet my needs, and I will not hesitate to refer Vanna to my friends and coworkers in the future.

Thanks again for the excellent service I received from Vanna.

Sincerely,

Susan L. Pauley

Prospective Clients:

Vanna Langdon deserves the highest praise for being a reliable, effective, and caring realtor. She exhibits these qualities and many more in her dealings with her clients. She is a realtor who will go the extra mile to be sure you are satisfied with your home and she will not stop working until she is certain you are happy.

My husband, Paul and I had the pleasure of working with Vanna from March through August of 1999. We were in the process of buying our first home. We screened several realtors, but what stood out about Vanna was her prompt response to all our questions and concerns. This quality did not cease once we had signed the contract with her; as soon as we phoned her, she would call us back. She would answer our questions as honestly as possible, and if she did not have the answer, she would find out quickly and call us back. Another reason we chose Vanna was her commitment to her job as thoroughly as possible. When our inspector could not finish inspecting the house, she immediately negotiated to have the builder pay for him to come back at a later date. A final reason to choose Vanna is her dedication to you as a client. After we closed on our house, there were several items that the builder was to repair. Even though, technically, Vanna’s responsibility as a realtor was fulfilled, she took the time to call us on numerous occasions to ascertain whether the work had been done.

Vanna comes with our highest recommendations. We plan to work with Vanna when we purchase our next home.

Sincerely,

Kim and Paul Eckstein

Dear Vanna,

Thanks for helping me find this house. I love it. I have almost gotten unpacked, which seems to be a never ending process. I wish you could come by and see it, now that I have all my “junk” in. I had a storage building delivered last weekend and have gotten about half of the things out of the garage. The other half goes into the attic which I still have to floor before moving those things. Maybe before winter I will be able to park inside.

You are a wonderful realtor, very attentive to business details and the person you are working for. I wish you luck in the future and I know you will do a great job in your career. Anyone I know that needs a realtor, I will send your way.

Thanks again

We would like to express how wonderful your realtor Miss Vanna Langdon was to us. She is based in Cary, NC. After transferring from Yokosuka Japan into the area, Miss Langdon was our "angel" helping us with the local short-term rental housing market. We were impressed at the level of sincerity & hard working professionalism that she afforded us. Miss Langdon will be the realtor that we contact when we hopefully purchase our home in the next 3-6 months in the Cary, NC region. Vanna, my wife and I "THANK YOU". Sincerely, Scott & Jenny Anderson.

Dear Mr. Walston,

I’m writing to express my great appreciation for the way that one of your agents handled the sale of my mother’s house recently.  Vanna Langdon was extraordinarily professional, upbeat, thorough, and helpful during a time that was a difficult one for our family.   

She did the best job of any agent I’ve ever dealt with and in every instance went above and beyond our expectations.  Not only did she perform her “real estate” duties admirably; she also helped in ways that no other agent ever has in the past.

Vanna Langdon helped us get the property ready for walk-throughs, inspections and closing and generally dotted all of her i’s and crossed all of her t’s to perfection.

I would heartily recommend Vanna Langdon to anyone who seeks a “hassle free” real estate experience.

Thank you for the quality service your company has afforded us. 

Sincerely,

Jim Darges and Family
