As a highly satisfied client, I wanted to express my appreciation for the exceptional service we received from Connie during the recent sale of my property. From the initial consultation to the final closing, Connie demonstrated remarkable professionalism, expertise, and dedication. Her deep knowledge of the local real estate market and keen understanding of my specific needs made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Connie's commitment to excellence and her genuine concern for her clients truly set her apart. Throughout the entire journey, Connie displayed exemplary communication skills, always keeping me informed about every stage of the transaction. She promptly answered my questions, provided valuable insights, and gave me a sense of confidence and peace of mind. Her attention to detail and thoroughness in handling paperwork and legalities ensured a smooth and efficient transaction. One of the aspects that impressed me most about Connie was her tireless work ethic. She went above and beyond to market my property effectively, employing various strategies to attract potential buyers. Her marketing expertise, including professional photography, virtual tours, and widespread online exposure, resulted in a higher level of interest and ultimately, a quick sale at a favorable price.

"She’s a joy to work with and she will give it her all."
Lisha Maxwell is a true professional and an amazing realtor. She helped guide us through the entire process and was always responsive. She had excellent advice for us — from our initial meeting regarding the sale of our home right up through closing day. She goes the extra mile for her clients by using a professional photographer for photos, staging the home so it looks and feels beautiful and giving advice on what items should be spruced up before the home goes on the market. If something needs to get fixed first — she has recommendations of people who can take care of whatever it might be.
The expertise that Lisha gives has been gained through her years of experience. She’s a joy to work with and she will give it her all. We placed our confidence in Lisha and she took excellent care of us. She is a true gem!

Connie and Lisha are the dynamic duo! Their staging services are on point, highly creative and transformed my home for listing. Using both their and my home decor, they have decorated my house with the buyer in mind. Their professionalism throughout the process of listing with them has been exemplary.

"The whole process was a white glove service"
We recently closed on our beautiful new home and the process could not have been better. Lisha was referred to us by two separate families who had both used her services and said she was fantastic! From our first conversation on the phone Lisha listened to every detail and what was important to us and from there she took the reins on finding us our dream home. She advocated for us during the entire process and thought of every aspect of the process that we may not have anticipated or would have thought of on our own as buyers.
The whole process was a white glove service as she has professionals that she likes and recommends (contractors, mortgage recommendations etc) that you can use if you choose to. That was very comforting as well knowing that the people that were recommended were of high quality and well rated. During this entire process Lisha made us feel as if we were her only clients. She was available any time we were available to see homes and was always a text or phone call away. She’s a true gem!

"Real estate knowledge is unprecedented"
Connie went above and beyond to help me with selling and buying. Her real estate knowledge is unprecedented, and her responsiveness is top notch. Both key characteristics during a high anxiety process. Connie dealt with an extremely difficult Buyer Agent and Buyers on the sale of my home and her professionalism and commitment to getting the deal sealed as well as looking out for me were amazing. I'll not refer her to my friends and family; I'll insist they engage Connie Bass for buying and selling in the future. Connie is dedicated to her clients unlike any Realtor I've ever worked with in the past. I'm so thankful that I met Connie and had her on my side during this time in my life. She's nothing short of the best.

"Made every sale/purchase stress free & a great experience"
Lisha is absolutely amazing! I have sold two houses and purchased two homes with Lisha - her expertise, her knowledge, her loyalty and her drive has made each and every sale/purchase stress free and a great experience in such a stressful time. I could always rely on her to have the answer or if she didn’t she would find it. She is the absolute best at her job!
Mary L.
"Most responsive agent I have ever worked with"
I have sold numerous homes in my life and have had numerous real estate agents. I can honestly say that Connie has changed my view and definition of a real estate agent. She is honest, caring, and the hardest working person I know. Above all knows how to sell a home! She was the most responsive agent I have ever worked with and was 100% on top of our sale. I know she had numerous clients during the time she sold our house, but she always made us feel like we were her ONLY clients. She's truly amazing and we were fortunate to have found her.

"I truly felt like I was her only client!"
Lisha sold my home in 4 hours after it went live! She is professional, dedicated, hard-working and understanding. She is always available to answer any question I have either by text or telephone. I truly felt like I was her only client! She is knowledgeable about the market, does her research, and assists you with suggestions to make your house show in the best possible light. Her partner and vendors she works with are all Pleasant and respectful. You cannot go wrong with her as your realtor!

Connie helped us find our new home in Charlotte, NC. We were overly impressed with her service, work, knowledge and follow-up. I was a Realtor at the time in a different state and our expectations were met in every way. Highly recommended! “Thank you Connie for your expertise, professionalism, and working all the long hours in order to meet our relocation timeline. You were a wealth of information and a great resource for attorneys, contractors, and anything else we needed. We will recommend you highly and consider you our realtor for life!"

"Immediately made me feel at home in a place I had never been before."
I met Connie two years ago via internet while I was researching Charlotte as a possible place to relocate from California. From the first time she picked me up at the airport, to today when she closed escrow for me because I am still in California, Connie has been absolutely the kindest, most caring, dedicated, professional, and knowledgeable realtor that I could ever ask for. She stuck with me and gave me her full attention and time, never really knowing if I would actually make the move to Charlotte or not. It was my first time in NC and Connie drove me around for three days showing me numerous homes and the different areas around Charlotte. She immediately made me feel at home in a place I had never been before. Each time I made a trip to Charlotte, Connie devoted three days or more to show me houses. My son is handicapped, and I had specific requirements in a home and Connie has gone WAY above and beyond her realtor duties in her effort to me find the perfect house that will fit my families' needs. She immediately understood what I was looking for and over the past two years she has spent countless hours of her time with me, giving me ideas and many different housing options to choose from. When I narrowed my search to a specific neighborhood in June and there were no homes for sale that met my criteria, Connie put flyers in mailboxes to see if anyone was interested in selling, which had positive results. Today I closed escrow on my dream home and I have Connie to thank for that. There is not enough space here to write all the things Connie has done to help me during these last two years and continues to do until I get there in three weeks. Connie started out as an excellent realtor and has become my wonderful friend and soon-to-be neighbor.

"She really went above and beyond in every aspect"
We can’t speak highly enough of our experience with Lisha. Lisha was referred to us from a very satisfied friend and all I can say is WOW! If you have the opportunity to work with her, know that you are in good hands. Lisha made the process so easy for my family and I. We were incredibly impressed with her punctuality, communication, and overall hardworking personality. She only wants the best for her clients and was extremely helpful staging the house, had great advice for any bumps in the road and was extremely knowledgeable of the area. She really went above and beyond in every aspect. Working with Lisha was one of the most seamless and pleasant moving experiences ever! It has been great working with Lisha and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

"Don't use her....it's your call. But don't use her and it's your loss as well.
My experience with Connie was the best I have ever had in selling and buying a home. Let me say that she defeats the stigma that goes with a traditional Real Estate person. My attitude in the past has been, that they get the listing and wait for 5,000 of their best friends (other Real Estate agents) to sell it for them. And if that's not what they do, then that's the way they make you feel. But, not with Connie!!
Connie works and works and works and works to get your home or property sold. PERIOD. A very uncommon professional in an industry that often exudes otherwise. Don't use her.........it's your call. But don't use her and it's your loss as well. She will always handle ALL of my real estate interests now and going forward. She is AWESOME!!

Lisha is not only a great agent, she's unique ! Having an engineering background and having been a home owner herself multiple times, she offers precious expertise and advice.
In addition, her interest in your future home is genuine and she's going to be there for you during any steps of the process, her schedule is very flexible and she's very responsive (I am still wondering when she's sleeping or if she has any days off).
Thanks to her, the leap to being a home owner for the first time didn't seem huge anymore, her confidence, passion and expertise really re-insured me.
So, whether you're a first time home buyer or not, Lisha is definitely the agent that you want and need - I'll definitely contact her for my next houses !

When we were planning on moving to Charlotte back in 2015, we came across a property in Providence Downs South on Funny Cide Drive that got our attention. Fortunately, for us the listing agent was unresponsive and we ended up connecting with Connie who represented us as buyers. Connie was exceptionally responsive, knowledgeable and calm in dealing with difficult situations, until we got through the negotiation process and successfully closed on our home in PDS which we love! Since then, I have had several dealings with Lisha and Connie for other real estate matters. Lisha and Connie are not only true real estate professional but a delight to work with! Trust is not merely granted but earned when others demonstrate competence and commitment to your best interest. My wife and I trust Connie and Lisha completely. You will be delighted with the outcome.

Jenna W.
Lisha is a simply amazing realtor! She truly cares about her clients and puts their needs first. She is a sharp negotiator, tireless hard worker, and expert in the Charlotte real estate market. She made excellent recommendations for areas to consider by listening to what I was looking for. She found my dream home in an area I would never have found on my own! She worked around the clock to get my condo on the market in just a few days with incredible staging that made my listing shine in the photos. She has a true talent for staging - the décor she brought in made my home look elegant, more spacious, and welcoming. Many people commented it looked like a "model home". Lisha handled everything, making the home selling/buying process so easy! It was a huge comfort knowing that Lisha had my back and that I could trust her expertise and recommendations. She is a strong negotiator, and is very creative in getting extras thrown in, going beyond just negotiating on price. She also has a big network of great local contractors that she trusts, which was so helpful in getting any repairs done fast! I always highly recommend Lisha to any of my friends I know looking to buy or sell. Her hard work and positive attitude get it DONE!

Looking for a RE Agent that keeps in touch, knows the Charlotte/Indian Trail area market, advocates for you at all times, knows how to get a closing done and, as a bonus, is fun to deal with? Give Lisha a call! She was instrumental in getting me into my brand new home despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic during construction and selling a home in a northeastern state that had very different RE rules from NC. You'll be glad you did!
Georgiann E.
Lisha is the person to call if you want to sell your house! She is responsive, informative, bright and caring all in one! She sold our house stress free and got us a great price. Lisha goes above and beyond for her clients. She is always open for questions and explains anything you need her to. I would highly recommend Lisha for your real estate needs.
Sheila C
Lisha was wonderful to work with!! One day of house hunting and she got us into our dream house! She gave her honest opinion about houses and helped us see flaws we were over looking. She worked well into the night negotiating with the seller and made the seller understand we gave our final offer. I highly recommend working with Lisha!
Amy A.
Lisha was SO easy to work with! We sent her an introduction email with dates of our upcoming wedding, honeymoon, and rental lease terms and she came to our first meeting fully prepared with a timeline for buying a home. She also went the extra mile and checked out an example "ideal home" we sent her and actually got in touch with the selling agent and aligned a showing for us. She has great connections and a good eye for a great place, so everything was insanely easy while working with her.
Jess L.
Lisha is a phenomenal agent. She goes above and beyond, is super responsive, knows who to call for any work you need on your house, is friendly and I’m not sure when she sleeps?! She is an outstanding real estate agent who we’ll recommend to anyone buying or selling a home!
Lindsey C.
To say Lisha is an amazing realtor is an understatement. She went above and beyond for my husband and I during our move from NY to SC.

She will do what it takes to get you into the house of your dreams! We feel that Lisha is not only our go to for real estate needs but is now a friend as well.

Lisha sold our house and was an enormous help as we had relocated several states away. I always felt that my house was in good hands and that Lisha would take care of any matter that came up in a timely manner and with our best interests in mind. I highly recommend Lisha as a knowledgeable and experienced agent!
Debbie L.
We are pleased to recommend Lisha Maxwell as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching to relocate to the Charlotte area. We were referred to Lisha by a friend and, after our first meeting when we explored her experience and credentials, we were convinced that she would be the right agent to help us find a suitable home in an area that was completely new to us.
Lisha jumped into action as soon as we briefed her on our needs. Energetic, knowledgeable and attentive, she educated us on the area, and showed us a range of options in line with our needs. She demonstrated considerable patience as we had to put our search on hold for a few months, but she was ready and available as soon as we were able to resume. When we finally landed on a suitable property, she crafted a very good contract and leveraged her network and support staff to work through multiple issues and deadlines to finalize the sale. Lisha went the extra mile to help us in our journey to relocate from the East Coast area to Charlotte. Thanks a lot, Lisha.
Pauline S.
Lisha is AMAZING! From the moment that Ellen and I first met with Lisha, to discuss the sale of our home, we were certain that she was the agent for us. From her initial market analysis, tour of our home, assistance in the staging of our home, description of the property, and all through the sale of our home, Lisha was enthusiastic, professional and, most of all, felt like a member of our family. In just 3 days we had more than 90 showings and 28 offers, and sold for.....WOW! Lisha made us comfortable throughout the process and kept us informed every step of the way. We could not have done it without her. Sign Lisha as your agent, you will be rewarded with happiness.
Ted V.
Lisha works harder than any other real estate agent I've ever met!! She truly goes above and beyond for her clients! I don't understand when she sleeps! We've worked with her 3 times and will continue to do so!
Sallie S.
Lisha was awesome. We were first time home buyers and she was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. She was very quick to recommend homes (all within our price range and what we were looking for) and set-up home viewings.
Greg S.
I do not believe anyone can truthfully declare that the process of looking for and purchasing a home is an enjoyable endeavor. I can honestly say, however, that Lisha Maxwell's expertise and steadfast determination to find the right home for me made the entire process gratifying. She, without a doubt, places her clients first and doggedly pursues opportunities that will match their specifications. Lisha is personable and professional. In my book, she merits a five-star rating and two thumbs up!
