"Highly recommended. I have had the best experience imaginable working with Pure Investor. The property was introduced to me by Chris, who was knowledgeable, patient and generally very helpful. Throughout the buying process, which took WAY too long, through no fault of Pure Investor, I was supported by Katie, who was amazingly responsive and was always on top of everything. I worked with many companies during this transaction, and none was nearly as professional or pleasant as the team at Pure Investor. Honestly, I could not recommend them enough. And both Katie and Chris deserve a raise. They're invaluable assets for Pure Investor!"
