1.This letter is to recognize the efforts and dedication of one of your employees, Ms. Carolyn Stanley. Carolyn assisted me in the purchase of a property in Jacksonville, NC recently and I cannot express how professional, educated, delightful and motivated she was. From the very first day I met her, I knew she was the right Realtor for me. She was knowledgeable about the area, interested in my needs and wants, not just for a sale for personal gain. She was patient and went above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions to complete the sale correctly. I have had over the years many real estate transactions here in CT and Carolyn was one of the very best Realtors to work with. I have been employed at Stew Leonard’s over 30 years and my company is on the Fortune 100 top companies to work for in the United States for over 6 years now because of our customer service. I teach customer service skills and know when a person has a genuine knack for dealing with people and are good at what they do. Carolyn far exceeded my expectations and I plan to continue to utilize her as my Realtor and recommend her to my friends. In closing, I would like to make sure Carolyn gets the tanks and appreciation she deserves, she is a valuable employee and I am sure she is an asset to your team. If she ever needs a professional character reference, I would be more than willing to recommend her to anyone needing a recommendation. Again my congratulations to the Lewis Realty Associates team for employing such a wonderful person who is a delight to work with. Thank you again.” – C. Arnette – Recruiting Manager Norwalk, CT

2. "I have been dealing in real estate since 1986 and have worked with quite a few realtors, but one of them surpasses all others and her name is Dee Stone. She promptly returns phone calls. She is very trustworthy and devoted. She has a great personality. She emails me digital pictures of the inside of units when I am unable to view them in person and gives me honest information on the condition because it is not always apparent in the photos. I can buy a property without going to see it because I trust her when she does this for me. She has never failed me. She works hard to make sure everything is in order for the loans to go through. She is very reliable. I have referred others to her knowing that they would also be pleased and they have purchased through Dee. Dee looks for the properties I am interested in and does not try to persuade me to buy something I don't want. Dee is absolutely the best! As a matter of fact, one of the people I referred to Dee that purchased a couple condominiums through Dee just had a terrible experience with a realtor in Massachusetts and now has to get an attorney involved. Her response to me was "There aren't too many realtors like Dee around and you really have to be careful when choosing one". I am certainly glad I chose Dee to be my realtor and have every intention of working with her as long as I am buying or selling in her area." - Cinda S. of W. Groton, MA

3. "Dear Ms. Peggy Lewis: I would like to thank you and your excellent staff for making me feel so comfortable in my search for a house in the Topsail area. I have worked with realtors in th Fayetteville, Emerald Isle and Topsail Island over the past 10-15 years and I can say that your realty company has been the most professional, courteous and sincere in helping me with my realty needs. I will definitely recommend your realty company to anybody who might ask me." - Larry P. of Hampstead, NC.

4. " I have worked with Carolyn Stanley in an effort to sale my house located in Wilmington, NC.    Fortunately, she recently sold my house in the midst of a nationwide economic crisis and has saved me from dealing with the foreclosure of my home.  Amazingly, she sold my house, which is located outside of her general coverage area, Topsail Island.  It has been a very pleasant experience in dealing with Carolyn.  Her work ethics are of the highest caliber.     She has done everything humanly possible to pull off this sale and her “never give up” attitude sets her apart from many other realtors.  I would recommend Carolyn to my closest family members and friends." - Kim Taylor-formerly of Wilmington-Email Available Upon Request.

5. " I have been conducting real estate business with Bob or Martha for the past two years. I want to take this opportunity to recognize their efforts in assisting me in the marketing of my property. Both have made me the client their top priority. From the first day I met them, I knew they were the right realtors for me. I am more than happy with the hard work they have done and will continue to do for me. Bob and Martha are professional realtors in every sense of the word. I know they will always go the extra mile in taking care of all the details necessary to market and sell my property. However, after working so closely with them, they now seem like part of my family. They are interested in my desires and needs as much as they are in selling for their own monetary gain. I would like to say thank you for asking, “Do you know anyone who has land for sale in this area?” That was a great day for me! - Lena Ritter of Holly Ridge, NC.

6. " I have conducted more than a few real estate closings involving Bob or Martha over a twenty-five year period. Both have demonstrated their ability to work well with sellers and purchasers in such matters. Their willingness to provide professional service over and beyond what is customary sets them apart from other realtors.These very personable folks are quite knowledgeable in real estate matters and are highly respected members of their profession.It gives me a great deal of satisfaction to make this unequivocal recommendation on their behalf." -J. Frank Green, Attorney

7. "This is a letter of appreciation and recognition for Mrs. Dee Stone. Dee is a member of your firm (Lewis Realty Assoc. Inc.) and was our agent for the purchase of (address non-disclosed).
We cannot tell you how pleased we were with our agent Dee. Dee represents your firm in a superior manner. She was extremely quick to turn around our requests for information or action. Her prompt answers were always bursting with detail. She continually maintained a postive attitude, always demonstrating genuine sincerity. Our interests became Dee's interests. What a breath of fresh air it was to deal with somebody who was not self-oriented, but instead was service oriented!

She is also a tough as nails negotiator. Her negotiating skills enabled us to walk away with a fantastic price on our new home. We made an incredible offer that perhaps she would not have originally recommended; however, she adopted this incredible offer as her own and fought tenaciously and shrewdly to obtain it for us.

When we closed, she personally made certain that everything and everyone was expertly coordinated so that closing would be a snap. During this time we were experiencing a big transition, having already left our old home in another state and trying to establish ourselves in a temporary home here in NC. In the midst of our relocation we were pressed for time and electronic access. She enthusiastically made the phone calls & emails that we needed in order to coordinate inspections, warranties, title search, even details requested by our loan officer, among other details.

Dee was simply an honest salesperson who loves her job and treats her customers accordingly. Our experience has been living proof of Dee's unyielding professionalism and electric enthusiasm.

In closing, we just want you to know that Dee was just the perfect balanced professional. We appreciated so very much working with her to purchase our new home. We hope that she remains with your firm and continues to provide your future customers with similar experiences" - Dave & Nicole Hudspeth of Surf City, NC.
