Juliet with housing scouts was amazing! She was dedicated to helping me find college housing and sent me an entire spreadsheet of information for housing. She was there every step of the way and made sure I was up to date with what was going on in the process and kept things real when I asked about the complexes. She even gave me a ride to campus when I had a class right after showings, she’s honestly the best agent I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Thank you!
