As selling a business is far more challenging than selling a private home, I was truly amazed with the ease and grace that my agent Sherry Merrill took on this hurdle. From the moment she and I met, her calming personality and professionalism were the perfect match for this somewhat frantic and nervous seller. Sherry never missed a beat with getting the ball rolling and listing the property to show it at its finest. It was important to keep business as usual, as well as have qualified buyers showing at the same time, which is not an easy task. Sherry made it look easy and easy on me as well, jumping in to help where ever needed. As stressed as I know I sometimes made the conditions, Sherry came to my rescue and smoothed out the situation. Sherry is a skilled negotiator even when dealing with some more than difficult, emotional and sensitive interactions with buyers and their agents, even when she did not get the same in return. Sherry was always prepared, knowledgeable, pleasant and timely. I am eternity grateful for her "keeping her cool" when I didn't think I could. She is a 5 star agent, committed to providing excellent service. In addition, she is a genuine and lovely person. A true asset to Lusk and Associates! Many...
Read moreLusk and Associates, Lancaster was recommended to us by another realtor in Northeast PA and we couldn't have been happier with the recommendation. We began searching for our forever retirement home two years ago knowing that retirement was coming but down the road. Ken Berkenstock worked with us for almost two years to find us the perfect home. He always made himself available for showings when we were in town for the weekend. He patiently showed us numerous styles of homes when we couldn't settle on exactly what we were looking for and when we limited our search location to be close to family. Ken kept assuring us when the right home came along, we would know it. And Ken found the right one with everything we wanted and more! From the initial showings through the closing, Ken helped us understand every step of the process and was there for us whenever we had questions (and we had lots of questions!). Thank you Ken, Ann and Lusk and Associates for a wonderful first home buying, retirement home experience! If you're looking for excellence when purchasing your next home or selling your current home, we highly recommend Lusk and Associates! David and Judy Walker, Shavertown, PA (soon to be...
Read moreLusk and Associates/Sotheby's International is by far one of the finest realtor firms in the region -- among the best that I have had the good fortune to work with. I even inquired about my interest in acquiring a retirement home in Southern states, only to become even more impressed with the abilities and professional network of the Lusk team to assist me in such a matter. The result: I ended up working with a realtor in Florida who was as equally impressive. With superb customer service with added abilities to walk clients through in great detail the real estate purchasing process with keen insight and perspective that the Lusk team provides, I enjoyed their attention to my customer needs, while the team utilized an expert market analysis designed to achieve the best results possible. The Lusk team works with the patience of a friend that intersects with a professional practice seeped in a purpose of character and mission. I had wonderful guidance -- thanks to a wonderful research and...
