CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
C. Stanley
“I can’t speak highly enough about our home buying experience with Ashley Richardson. Moving my family from Hawaii to North Carolina was challenging enough, and we didn’t know how we were going to manage house hunting across six time zones while I was also commuting out of another state for work. Ashley somehow found a way to effortlessly overcome all of these obstacles. I appreciated her candor during our initial phone call consultation. She was polite but also stated that she’s more likely to tell us why we shouldn’t buy a home than why we should buy a home with an emphasis on ensuring our investment had resale potential. Ashley was always accessible throughout the house hunting process and could quickly generate a competitive home offer for signature with very little notice. A savvy negotiator during the offer and closing phase, she helped balance our interests while ensuring our offer was appropriate for the home. Ashley also helped us solve several issues during closing as well. Finally, she is a friendly person whose decades of regional experience helped me find the perfect home for my family. “
R. Foster
Ashley Richardson is an exceptional Realtor, and we say that without hesitation. She’s very professional, yet she gives personalized advice. Her communication skills and market knowledge are extremely valuable. We have worked with Ashley for many years and know her to be genuine and very reliable, and we highly recommend her.
M. Peterson
When we were purchasing a home and relocating from Ohio, Ashley guided us every step of the way. She scheduled video calls for us to view homes and arranged showings when we were in town. Her patience, knowledge, and expertise were invaluable. With her help, we found our dream home and closed within a month. Simply put, she the best.
M. Kennedy
Ashley has helped us buy and sell several different homes over the past 12 years. She goes way beyond our expectations every time we use her and gives great advice and is extremely knowledgeable and professional when it comes to all things real estate. Ashley easily gets a five star rating and is hands down the best realtor we have ever used.
B. Phillips
Ashley was wonderful to work with when purchasing our new home! She has her finger on the pulse of the community and we had complete confidence in her knowledge of the market. She made note of our priorities and kept us updated with a tailored list of homes, sometimes even before they hit the market. Ashley’s calm and confident demeanor was a real asset during our negotiations and the purchase went very smoothly. She has also been very helpful with her extensive list of service providers. We would highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the area!
B. Dalton
Ashely has been my Real Estate Professional go to person on both the buy and sell side. She first helped us sell our Davidson NC house, and when we went to go upgrade into a bigger Cornelius lake house later… We knew exactly who to call. Ashley will be my agent of choice should we ever choose to move again. Ashley has a nice blend of keeping expectations in check given the LKN huge popularity surge while still helping you to find the best house and neighborhoods only a local would know.
L. McCorkle
Ashley Richardson is an amazing realtor! She made our first home-selling experience smooth, enjoyable, and exciting. She always kept us informed about everything that was done or said concerning our home. She answered all of our questions in a timely manner and checked in with us every few weeks just to make sure we were okay and didn’t need anything.
I would highly recommend Ashley Richardson of Allen Tate to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you so much, Ashley, for all of your hard work and support!
