We would highly recommend WyantCraig to anyone looking to sell their home. We felt comfortable with Sandra and Josh from the get go and were a pleasure to work with. They are the real deal, knowledgeable with high integrity, honesty and respect for everyone involved with the process. They helped prepare us even prior to listing our house and answered our many questions. The marketing was extensive and professionally done (photography, video, mail outs and social media) and reached a vast audience. They represented our interests with the process and strategy from start to finish. The entire team is meticulous and detail oriented keeping us informed throughout the entire process. We are 100% satisfied customers!

This is the sixth real estate transaction our family members have conducted with Sandra and Josh, and I can't imagine going to anyone else for our real estate needs. They are highly professional, thoroughly knowledgeable about the market and the ins and outs of their business, and treat their clients with respect and honesty. We know we can always trust Sandra and Josh to give us the best of advice, because to them, their clients' needs come first. Thank you, Sandra and Josh -- again!

Sandra, Josh and the rest of the team were the best. They were knowledgeable of the real estate industry in the specific location that we wanted (and got!). They were highly responsive to the many inquiries we had. They were very organized that they helped us so much with everything that needed to be done before and during of both the sale and purchase. We highly recommend their services.

The WyantCraig Team was amazing and our experience of selling (in just 7 days) and buying a home was made easy and stress free by their expertise, care and competence. If you are looking to sell your home or looking to buy Sandra and Josh are truly realtors that put their clients needs at the heart of all transactions. Special mention goes to assistant Joan, which kept us up to date on all the showings. We highly recommend them.
