“We highly recommend Kevin Root with Life & Legacy Properties, Inc. As a first time home buyer, Kevin made the process easy to understand, as smooth as possible, and he never delayed with answering any questions we had. He worked diligently to make sure our needs were met and consistently advocated for us throughout the entire process. Our home buying experience was a crazy roller coaster ride due to other parties, but Kevin made it possible for us to close on our home with great incentives. Trust us, you won’t regret choosing Kevin!”
