Laura is a superb realtor to work with; extremely competent and well-versed in all aspects of buying and selling real estate. As she is from the local area, Laura has an intimate knowledge and extensive network of contacts in a wide range of services that might be required in selling a residence. I inherited a home from my father when he passed away and still had a house full of my father's personal effects when I located Laura through the local REMAX office in Crystal River. The task was made more difficult for me as I lived 530 miles away from the home I was preparing to sell.

Laura is a superb realtor to work with; extremely competent and well-versed in all aspects of buying and selling real estate. As she is from the local area, Laura has an intimate knowledge and extensive network of contacts in a wide range of services that might be required in selling a residence. I inherited a home from my father when he passed away and still had a house full of my father's personal effects when I located Laura through the local REMAX office in Crystal River. The task was made more difficult for me as I lived 530 miles away from the home I was preparing to sell. She came out to view the house the same day I initially made contact with her and after I returned home to Tennessee she sent me a professionally prepared Market Analysis even though we had not yet signed any contract to work together at the time. She also recommended a local appraiser for me to contact to have a Date of Death Appraisal done on my father's estate. It would be four months later before I had the house sufficiently cleared out to the point where everything left could be sold at an Estate Sale. After the Estate Sale, Laura personally assisted in all aspects of getting the home ready for sale which included clearing out the remnants from the Estate Sale, making minor repairs around the house, conducting a thorough cleaning of the home, and arranging for professional photos of the residence for listing the home for sale. This was all before the actual realtor-related activities of listing and selling the home. Laura is extremely well-versed in the preparation, pricing, marketing, negotiating, and close coordination required to effectively sell a home for the best price, taking into account the needs of both the buyer and seller. Her response to all requests, emails, and phone calls were extremely timely (usually within minutes), and it was not unusual to have a late-night update waiting in my inbox when I awoke in the mornings. I would wholeheartedly recommend Laura Ivory Bush to anyone considering listing their home for sale. You cannot go wrong with Laura. She is extremely personable and will work closely with you to ensure the sale goes extremely smoothly and with optimal results.
Laura provided the most amazing service while dealing with me cross-border and long-distance during a pandemic. So well-connected, Laura single handedly managed all of the logistics for cleaning out personal possessions, arranging for donation, cleaning up a neglected house, and finding just the right buyer for this particular situation. Well beyond a typical realtor, Laura is smart and energetic and was totally sensitive to my needs and those of the neighbors and subtrades, and everything that went along with an estate sale. I can't say enough about how grateful I am to have found Laura to handle this sale for me.
If we could give a hundred stars, we would. Whatever you expect from your realtor, Laura will exceed your expectations. We were buying remotely, so Laura handled everything for us here in Florida. She found the answer to any question we had, and we had plenty. She is very friendly and easy to work with. Laura was very persistent in getting survey, appraisal, and loan issues resolved; and getting property repairs completed promptly. She also gave us excellent referrals for services in the area. For people moving into this area, Laura is an answer to prayer.
Laura facilitated the purchase of our home. Due to our own circumstances, the process needed to be done remotely. Laura put us at ease immediately. It became quickly apparent she was extremely knowledgeable and very responsive to all of our questions. She brought things to our attention we weren't aware of and provided recommendations when asked. In addition to being professional, Laura is down to earth and truly pleasant to work with. We'd recommend Laura to anyone looking to buy or sell their property. A definite rock star!
