There are three attributes that set Alexandra apart from her competitors: 1. Strong Marketing Skills (excellent use of social media, networking, quality photography, personalized marketing literature on the home, ability to create a "buzz") 2. Complete Turn Key Service - VERY UNIQUE (arrangement of any home prep repairs, home content clean out, house staging, and anything else that creates an amazing frictionless experience) 3. Excellent Team (source market comps quickly, staying on top of the process, following through, creating professional documents, sourcing other professional relationships necessary to complete the sale such as attorney, inspectors, etc.) At the end of the day, what we remember most is the quality of experience and interactions we have when doing a deal. Even when I was being demanding regarding a certain term, Alexandra remained focused on solving the problem and helping me to process through the issue. She also has a big heart which is demonstrated through all the ways that she gives back to the community and those who are struggling in life. Alexandra sets a high bar for excellence and strives to provide an amazing service in every facet of the deal. I can not recommend her highly enough. read less

After searching for months in a hot sellers market we decided to take a breather for the winter and within weeks Hilary found a home that was a perfect fit. Because of Hilary’s tenacity we were first people to see our future home and put in an offer. Our family and friends have been enjoying our new Haven ever since and forever grateful Hilary stayed the course and believed in making our dream a reality. read less

Hillary's knowledge, patience, professionalism, guided us to an excellent outcome, a beautiful new house. It’s been truly a pleasure to work with her. We found that Hillary keeps her clients's best interests in sharp focus and always trust that she is in top of every detail, big or small; which brings great peace of mind. Her warmth and beautiful personality make not only a great person to work with, but a good friend to trust.We hardly recommend Hillary Drake and the Mountain Star Team Re/Max Executive to anyone. read less

I was worried that since I was working with a small budget, I just wouldn't be a high priority. Hilary made me feel like I was just as important as a high-dollar client. She was authentic, professional, and truly brought me a home I am in love with. I would recommend her to anyone. read less
