Lynn could not have done a better job assisting me and my boyfriend in finding and buying our first home! Attention and knowledgeable service – that's what we received from Lynn at ODAT reality. As a first-time Buyer, this was very important to me. She answered all of my questions and followed through on the details every time. She was always there when I needed something. 

The Atlanta Homes ODAT Realty team offered me top-level choices - several mortgage lenders, home inspectors and even the structural engineer. Lynn negotiated with our Seller to use her preferred high level contractor for the changes. Her support allowed me to feel comfortable throughout the process from my first offer to buy through the repair completion and on to Closing.

For the contract itself, Lynn's negotiation skills were excellent. I paid the price I wanted to pay for my new home and the Seller agreed to do all the repairs I wanted. I moved in with the house just the way I wanted it to be. It was great.

Be prepared for her to insist that you do things in a certain way – having a mortgage approval before looking for example. We butted heads a few times yet the best results usually came when I followed her suggestions and she always listened to my opinion when I would put my foot down.

I am glad to recommend Atlanta Homes ODAT Realty and Lynn B. Friedman to anyone wanting a successful real estate experience.

THANKS! I really appreciate the review. We had fun, didn't we? I appreciate that you willingly paid our RESEARCH and EDUCATION FEE after our first meeting. I see the R&E FEE as a commitment from the Buyer to forming a team with us. Mutual respect is essential. And - yes - with my method - A MORTGAGE LETTER BEFORE WE START LOOKING - every minute of the search is useful - no wasting time! FIRST-TIME BUYERS need many extra hours to feel comfortable about the process. We discussed the PURCHASE PROCESS in great depth. We went and looked at every home you wanted to see and stayed at each as long as you wanted. It's important to me that each Client feels very secure about selecting a future home! NEGOTIATIONS? Taking a WIN-WIN approach makes the back and forth of a purchase a successful process.You and I had a great adventure together. I am delighted that you are so content. Nice to have pleased a lawyer with my negotiation approach! Have a happy day - Lynn
