"Sylvia Rhodes was a dream to work with from the start. She was extremely punctual, organized, efficient, and was always able to suit our scheduling needs for showings. She texted when the conversation warranted texting and called when we needed a call. The entire process for us went much quicker and smoother than we expected. We also ended up going with her recommendations for our inspection and lender because they also had great reviews. Great experience all around and I highly recommend Fontaine, especially Sylvia!"

"I had a great experience with Sylvia. I was a first time home buyer with a very tight budget, but Sylvia gave me the quality of attention and assistance that you'd expect for someone spending twice as much as I did. I am a very high strung person and Sylvia was patient and understanding. I'm very grateful that I went with Fontaine Family."Irene Hartmann | Google Review

"Sylvia Rhodes was and is a very hard worker, and a go getter. I called her and within thirty minutes she returned my call. Within the next 30 minutes she has sent me information on every house I told her I was interested in. She met with me the following night instead of pushing me off to a later date. She was always available for all of my questions no matter how small no matter weekday or weekend. I will suggest her to anyone looking into buying."

"Being a first-time homebuyer with an extremely tight time frame of less than three months to secure a property, I consider myself blessed to have connected with Sylvia Rhodes as my real estate agent. Sylvia displayed an unwavering commitment by dedicating considerable time and effort on a daily basis, including weekends, to identify suitable properties, and conduct virtual tours through video calls to show those properties to me, since I was located out of state. Her responsiveness to my queries, as well as her efforts to accommodate my requests, were truly commendable. Sylvia's work ethic, professionalism, and strong determination were truly exceptional. Her dedication extended beyond the ordinary, as she left no stone unturned to ensure her clients found their dream homes. What impressed me the most was her proactive approach in leveraging all available resources, including seeking expert opinions on legal and technical aspects of properties. I am particularly grateful for Sylvia's pivotal role, as her hard work and expertise led me to secure an excellent deal within a remarkably short period in this highly competitive market. Without her guidance and tireless commitment, I am uncertain if I would have been able to secure such a favorable outcome. For this, I am forever appreciative and thankful to her."

"My wife and I had an incredible experience working with Sylvia Rhodes, a local real estate agent with Fontaine Family - The Real Estate Leader in Scarborough, Maine. We were in the process of relocating to Nashville, TN, and needed a reliable realtor to help us find a home quickly. From the moment we reached out to Sylvia, she was incredibly responsive and attentive to our needs. Her knowledge of the real estate market and the relocation process made us feel confident in our decision to work with her. She took the time to patiently explain every step of the process, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. What impressed us the most was her willingness to go above and beyond to help us find the perfect agent in Nashville. Sylvia referred us to an outstanding real estate agent in Tennessee, who truly understood our preferences and found us an amazing home in no time. Throughout the entire journey, Sylvia maintained excellent communication, keeping us informed and involved in the process. Her positive and pleasant demeanor made working with her an absolute pleasure. If we ever decide to move back to Maine in the future, there is no doubt that we will be reaching out to Sylvia Rhodes again. She is a true professional and someone you can trust to make your real estate dreams a reality. Thank you, Sylvia, for making our relocation a seamless and enjoyable experience!"
