Working with Beacon Sotheby's has been an amazing agency in my search for lakeshore properties that best work for me. Just from using their website and social media, to looking through their detailed photos and watching their luxurious property video clips, it really helped allow me to captivate an incredible experience of living at these homes that I have never felt before by any other company. I couldn't emphasize more how innovative, stylish, and efficient Beacon Sotheby's International Realty represents themselves and I will definitely look to them next time I'm looking to move forward in my realty experience.

Family owned with family values, the Van Horns and crew rock!!
