CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
Prior to purchasing an investment property with Miriam, my knowledge was quite limited. I was also quite intimidated by the whole process.
Miriam was incredibly supportive, making sure I was educated and kept informed along the way. During negotiations, Miriam's knowledge and professionalism shone through making me feel very supported. She is helping me realise my dream of home ownership and also financial security!
Thanks so much Miriam for all your help!
