“We cannot recommend Stephanie Malk enough! After two years of searching for the perfect home to move our family from the city to the suburbs, she was an absolute lifesaver. Her patience was unmatched, always taking the time to show us options that truly fit our needs, and never pushing us into making a decision before we were ready. The knowledge Stephanie brought to the table was invaluable, from understanding the nuances of each neighborhood to offering expert advice on what would work best for our family.
When it came time to sell our home, we were equally impressed. Stephanie’s professionalism really shone through—especially in the way she marketed our property. From staging recommendations to incredible photography, Stephanie made sure our home stood out in the best way possible. Thanks to her expertise, we had multiple offers on the table, and we were under contract in just 2 days.
If you're looking for a real estate agent who is not only knowledgeable and skilled but also genuinely caring and patient, look no further. Simply put, Stephanie made the whole process seamless and stress-free for us!”

“I was recommended to Stephanie via a local mom’s group and she was amazing all-around. She was someone who understood juggling schedules and did everything she could to take me to every house we wanted to see, and worked so hard in finding us the right buyer for the home we were selling.
She was personable yet very professional. She understood the process so well which allowed us to secure the beautiful perfect home we live in now by beating out other offers. It was such a blessing working with her. Throughout the whole process we felt informed and cared for, I can’t recommend her enough.”
