I want to see a home; should I just call the agent on the sign?

By |2017-12-13T19:35:57+00:00November 14th, 2017||

Another Resident recommended their agent; what’s the difference?

By |2017-12-13T19:35:57+00:00November 14th, 2017||

When it becomes clear they could have used The Mills Team program to save thousands of dollars in the purchase of their home, they are very disappointed. Other agents
