Buying and selling real estate can easily be some of the most stressful transactions and experiences in life. However, when we engaged Leslie Floyd six years ago to help sell our family home on Martha’s Vineyard, she made our experience as smooth and stress-free as could be. We would enthusiastically enlist Leslie to assist us with any real estate venture again. Leslie is a life-long Vineyard resident, whose family has lived on-island for generations. Her experience and in-depth knowledge of the island, from its geography and historical past to its up-to-the-minute news and developments, put her in a prime position to market our home, targeting potential buyers and accurately pricing it. In fact, after some creative negotiations on her part, our home sold within a few months for exactly what she predicted it would. As for her character, Leslie is intelligent, aware, capable, honest, dependable, kind, personable, perceptive, patient, and persistent. She cares! She has a warm, calm, mature, and professional demeanor, is a good listener and communicator, a keen observer, and is always ready to help, counsel, and advise. Whatever we needed, if she couldn’t offer it herself, she either made arrangements for it or put us in contact with someone who could. If ever there was any drama going on behind the scenes, we were never aware of it. We could not have imagined a more peaceful experience. It’s no wonder Leslie has been recognized by her peers and received awards for her career in real estate!
