Working with Meena and Brian was such a wonderful experience. I had to sell my late mother's home and it was such an overwhelming process and seemed like an impossible task before these two came into the picture. They were caring and understanding and explained everything to me in ways that I could understand since this was my first time having to sell a house. They were quick and efficient and everything was completed within a few weeks.
I can finally take a sigh of relief and grieve my mother's passing and I owe it to Meena and Brian and for that I am truly thankful. Thank you two so much for everything it really means a lot to me from the bottom of my heart!

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Jim was one of the worst real estate agents I've ever worked with - his service was very bad, but also ended up lying to us, which we found out after speaking directly with the seller. Don't make the same mistake we did - avoid Cook Realty if you can.

We had the worst experience we've ever had with any real estate agent. For example, our agent gave us a confirmation via email that the seller would do something, but when talking to the seller the agent never even spoke to them about the item (i.e. our agent lied to us). This is one example of many. Avoid at all costs!

Hello! So I have zero experience with realty. Amanda Jackson and Edna Lee both helped me with my first time trying to buy a place, and provided me with the best possible experience I could have had. I ran into many road blocks and the entire time they were there supporting me. Any question I had, they either had an answer or got back to me with in the hour after them finding the answer. If you are a first time buyer or an experienced one, I have faith that both of these amazing realtors would give you the best possible service. They educated me on every little aspect about the home buying process, made me feel comfortable and valued.

Edna and Amanda were absolutely amazing. I highly recommend going with either or both of these two realtors, they stuck with us through a lot of difficulties and helped us find the perfect place for us. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome and i would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of a realtor.
