"What a great experience!  This is the second sale I've had with Waterfront Specialists and as before, every detail was handled with care and professionalism.  If you own a waterfront home, you'll want the skills of the Waterfront Specialists negotiating your sale!"
P.S. They are also "pet lovers!"

"Diane listed and Fred sold the home we owned in Marathon for 10 years in ONE day for top dollar and with the smoothest settlement we have ever experienced. "
Thanks, Diane and Fred!
