After interviewing a few realtors from Champaign, I chose Mariya as my realtor because she stood out from the crowd although she was the youngest. She posted and sold my house after I had moved out of the town. I was concerned about selling an empty house while I was not around, but Mariya gave me much good advice, confidence and actual help. She is a good listener, quick responder and good negotiator. She knows the market and, to my surprise, is very experienced! I felt that she was on my side and I could trust her during the whole process. She represents a new generation of promising realtors who incorporates new communication and marketing technology into traditional house selling. I am glad that I had chosen Mariya.
