Sara & Wally

We left the U.S. to relocate to Verona, Italy.
Sounds glamorous, right?
Wrong. 

We had a property in Oakland to deal with, a one-year-old daughter on the verge of toddling, two cherished cats, and a houseful of belongings to pack into a shipping container. There were the endless details of the house sale facing us, after endless details arranging a trans-Atlantic move. We had 8 huge suitcases to get to the airport on moving day, not counting the cat crates. We were pretty sure we weren’t going to survive the whole process.

Happily it all came together — prestissimo! We somehow made it on and off the plane with our menagerie intact, found that our belongings had miraculously landed with us (including the cats), and we began our new lives a in a new country.

All the while, Anne was a calming presence that got us through each day, always going the extra mile to provide perfect solutions to each issue as (and often before) it arose. She managed everyone and everything with ease while we were on another continent with a 9-hour time difference. She is a gifted communicator with an extraordinary ability to simplify the complexities of a home sale, and a delightfully pleasant and cheerful person to boot. And the marketing video she made of our property and neighborhood has become legendary among our friends and neighbors, which made US look good! We received multiple offers on our house, resulting in a landmark sale price for the neighborhood.

When she offered to take us to the airport with our menagerie, we knew why we had clicked with her immediately upon meeting her... Anne is simply the best!
