“It was a true pleasure to work with Staci Mildenstein and Sarah Monceaux! They helped me and my husband find our dream home at Lake Monticello! They were so responsive, communicative, and attentive. They were very competent, professional, and pleasant. They even noted items in the home inspection that we missed and helped us address them. They were so helpful throughout the whole process of buying our dream home! I highly recommend them as a team and individually! Many thanks to Staci, Sarah, and Avenue Realty!”

“Denise and her team are second to NONE! Let me tell you… I am Type A and I did not even have the chance to email or follow up on questions because Jill reaches out so often with all the updates that you are basically left with no questions… they’ve all been answered in her updates! We completed 4 transactions with Denise over the last year and a half and all were seriously smooth sailing. We sold land which was seamless with Denise; purchased land which was also easy; built a new home with Denise which had a few bumps in the road, but Denise made it so easy to deal with and get the results we wanted. We also sold our previous home- another seamless transaction all because of this team! Denise goes above and beyond for anything that you need. We have just never witnessed anything like working with her and her team. Anything that comes up, have no worries and no fear- Denise and her team will solve it ASAP. That piece was so incredibly important to us, as we had so much going on in our lives at the time. It was really nice to not have to worry about anything with the sale of our home. They truly are such a top tier team and we just cannot say enough great things about them. We cannot recommend Denise and her team enough!”
