"An amazing job listing our horse farm!"

The team of Bridget Archer and Pam Dent did an amazing job listing our horse farm. Their photography, videos, and property description truly captured the beauty and charm of our farm. We requested that they be there for every showing to safeguard our horses and they always came through. We felt fortunate to have gotten the property sold at virtually the price at which it was listed, even during an unpredictable market period, and it was the tireless efforts of Bridget and Pam that made it happen. We are very grateful!!
