Ms. Olsen not only did a fantastic job on selling my Ellijay, Ga property but she gave me some insight on buying my new home in Florida. I without reservation would recommend Ms. Olsen to anyone that is considering buying or selling a home or property. She is diligent, she is patient with her clients, she stays on top of the deal and keeps her clients informed and is with them every step of the way to a successful closing.

As an out-of-state seller, Terri took care of my home while it was on the market as if it were her own. She frequently checked on the house both before and after each showing to make sure it was presenting well and that it was secured following the sale -- not all agents remember to lock up! She provided excellent resources I needed to provide a few services for things such as lawn care, house cleaning, and minor repairs. The staging and photos were top-notch! Also, she followed up with the buyers' mortgage company to assure it was moving along. The North GA market is a different market than I was used to...click to view full review

We tried for sale by owner, but on a recommendation from a neighbor, we called Century 21 in the Mountains. Terri was polite and courteous. She explained everything in easy to understand terms and was always mindful of our needs. We had a contract in 24 hours and we closed in 30 days! I would call Terri Olsen again

Terri went above and beyond a year prior to our move. We were unsettled on a retirement location, and we asked her to show us some homes and get a feel for the area. She took us to several properties, gave us literature about the area, and was friendly and professional, knowing that we were not in a position to make any purchase offers for another 12 months. Because of her helpfulness, we naturally, went back to Terri when the time came to buy a home.
