As senior citizens ready to downsize, the thought of selling our home after 26 years seemed like an overwhelming task, and we quickly learned that we were ill-prepared. Fortunately, we found ourselves in very good hands with Vicki Deane, our Baird & Warner realtor. Not only is her knowledge about the market and the selling process extensive, her network is extraordinary. Her recommendations for staging, legal advice, inspections, remediation experts, movers, and financing experts meant that we could focus on the challenge of packing. At the same time, she worked tirelessly to help us find a new home that not only exceeded all our expectations but that closed ahead of our target deadline. She is a true professional with an enthusiasm for her work that is both infectious and sincere. Vicki was so much more than our realtor; she became a very special friend that we highly recommend without hesitation. The Russell's 2018
