My wife and I are first time homebuyers, so naturally we were overwhelmed by the stress of finding a good realtor. We weeded through many mediocre ones before ultimately finding Jen Ortman. Throughout the entire process, she's amazed us by her high level of professionalism and overall competency.

Benefits:
- She's accommodating.
She replies to your messages within minutes.
- She answers all your questions with precision and insight. The more you hear her talk, the more you'll learn.
- She constantly helps you untangle all the misconceptions in your head.
- She is blunt, but in a good way: she tells you what you actually need vs. what you think you need. If there's a house you're in love with but she doesn't think it's good, SHE WILL TELL YOU and she will explain how it will be for your own good to dodge that bullet. Personally, this speaks volumes to her character as opposed to most agents who will tell you any house is great as long as they can close the deal.

If you need an agent, look no further.
