Specialties:If we could give Heather more stars, we would. From the very beginning, Heather was kind, professional, and responsive. She answered all of our questions and got us answers if it needed extra digging. She listened to our wants and needs and got us into the house that had everything we were looking for and more. Heather is hands down the best Realtor we have ever had. 10/10 would recommend her and and GayRealEstate.com!
Heather and her team were a dream to work with, making the process easy and efficient.
Heather had worked with our daughter and her wife to build their home. She’s now worked with us to buy a home nearby. She navigated partners in different states, conducted both virtual and in-person showings, and negotiated with patience, skill and a sense of humor.
Heather managed it all perfectly even when the property’s zoning led to a change in our approach. Her expertise kept us on target and we closed as planned.
As buyers, we’re making life decisions in a business transaction. Heather and her team understands that — she knew what this property meant to our family and it’s now home. We’re 100% satisfied and highly recommend Heather and GayRealEstate.com.
Heather is a dream realtor and a friend. I found her through GayRealEstate.com for western MI queer realtors and she drew me in. She helped our daughter and her wife build a home, appear on House Hunters, and become part of our family. Dan and I knew when we were ready to buy near the girls and our new grandson there was only one way to go, with Heather. Thank you for the authentic, amazing, brilliant wizardress of a realtor you are and mostly for being a friend. Bonus tip: end your closing at The Barge in Saugie!
Heather was incredible to work with. Not only did she help us navigate an extremely competitive and fast paced market, she did this seamlessly with us being located out of state. We were first time home buyers moving to a new city that we had very little knowledge of. Heather helped us learn about the city, she educated us on the markets and really took the time to learn about us and help us find the right area for us. On top of this, she helped us navigate the buying process as first time homebuyers in a market that is extremely competitive. Heather had creative ideas that helped our offer stand out from the multiple offers properties were getting to make sure we won the home of our dreams at a fair price. She was very careful to help us understand the comps and make sure that we were not overpaying which can be so easy to do in this type of market. I cannot say enough good things about her and would HIGHLY recommend working with her.
We wholeheartedly recommend Heather! We wanted someone who was knowledgeable, curious, and available, who wouldn’t be distracted, who would listen to what we wanted rather than just try to sell us any house, who would be patient with our being particular on certain things and fluctuating on others, and most importantly, someone who wouldn’t treat us differently for being a same-gender interracial couple; Heather was everything we had hoped to find in a realtor and more. Her calm and collected demeanor helped us feel more at ease while going through something so heavy and important. She is personable, kind, engaged, and direct. We loved how prompt and efficient she was with everything; email, text, phone, prep work, all of it - She was on it. We genuinely think of Heather as an irreplaceable part of our little team. Another nod to her credit was also when we were at the closing table and even our mortgage officer told Heather she’d love to work with her again. So thankful for her help! Thank you GayRealEstate.com for connecting us, we definitely recommend your site when needing a realtor as well!
Heather was very responsive from the very beginning. Her communications were always on point.
We did not have a real estate agent in the area we were searching and connected with Heather! So glad we did. She is amazing and just a down to earth person who took the time to understand what we were looking for but was also very flexible when our ideas changed. We looked at both home and properties in the Fennville area and she took the time each time to thoroughly walk us through them. She has an intuitive knack for being inquisitive and that was extremely helpful. The process was easy and she made it seamless. Could not have asked for a better partner to get us through all of it and landing us in our dream property where our new family hopes to spend many years enjoying together. She is awesome!!!
Susie and I had a wonderful experience working with Heather and GayRealEstate.com. She was very communicative and professional throughout the entirely of our home purchasing process. She was incredibly personable and responsive to our shifting needs and wants in searching for our new home.
Heather went above and beyond in communicating with my fiancée and I. We met in person first and that made us feel comfortable that we chose the correct realtor for our first home purchase.
My wife and I were relocating from Nashville, TN to Grand Rapids and came across Heather’s profile on this site. Working with Heather was amazing! As out of state purchasers we were really concerned on how we would manage this process but from the start Heather set up searches for us and scheduled a full day of showings for us while we were in town. We quickly got our offer accepted and have since closed on our home! Heather was very helpful, insightful, and always on top of everything. A great partner to have during this process and in this market. Thank you again!
