Our Spring Cleanup was a Success!

July 12, 2019 by dbabcock Leave a Comment

We had a great time this past weekend cleaning up the parkway at the Sunrise Recreation Area with the help of over 100 volunteers! It was the perfect opportunity to spend the day outside in the sunshine for a great cause.

Wondering how you can help keep our parkways clean? The American Parkway Foundation will have more volunteer opportunities throughout the remainder of the year. Stay tuned for our next cleanup opportunity!

Testimonial

“I bought my first house from Diane and her late husband Tim in 1990. They were fantastic helping a newly divorced, single woman find the perfect place. Over the next several years, I bought and sold three houses, all with very little stress and all expertly managed. Diane has an extensive network to help with home repairs, yard work, financing assistance and personally has a great eye for staging. I have recommended her to friends who have also experienced unconditional service and success whether buyer or selling. A true real estate professional.
