"I really appreciate what Lynn Boyd at Keller Williams Realty did to help me find a wonderful home. I was getting nowhere searching online for forclosures in Panama City , Florida . Finding good forclosure listings online is like getting cheerful service at the DMV....impossible. They are scantilly detailed and far and few between. What's more, I was looking for my first home, and more specifically, a home with real investment potential. This task was made even more daunting because I had never before lived in Panama City . It was clear, I had to find a realtor who knows the area and above all a person I could trust. I needed to employ somebody with the resources, instincts, and ability to listen, in order to help me find, not just the right home for me, but a great deal on that home. I asked Amy Bresser with Keller Williams in Madison , Wisconsin if she could help me get started over in PC, she enthusiastically agreed and asked me some questions about the type of person I'd like to work with and what I was looking for in a home. Well, she must have been listening, because she got me in touch with Lynn Boyd at Keller Williams in Panama City . I ended up buying a beautiful beach house forclosure, not 5 years old, 3 stories, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, with an ocean view for well under $200,000. I won't even boast how much the house sold for a couple years back. This was the first home Lynn showed me, and after a day of footwork, I came right back to it. She obviously knows how to read a client. I can only hope to work with Lynn again in the future, as some gifts can only be opened by closing! This Christmas night I just wanted to thank you Lynn for helping me in this journey." -- Aaron Eichstedt, 2009
"I am glad we found Lynn. She was open to anything and made the process very easy for us, even if there was a problem. Excellent Realtor for us." -- Denise Greer
"I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of the help purchasing our new home. Lynn- you were absolutely wonderful. Thanks again so much for everything. You guys have a fantastic team. We love our new house and can't wait to come home with our new little one (new baby)." -- Lynn Boyd helped Tighe & Courtney Harris buy a house so they could have a new home for their first baby. Lynn worked around their pre-natal stay at the hospital so their closing would be easier on them.
"I am not into Sales - my background was with an electrical utility. However, I would recommend Keller Williams (the Payne Group) to anyone who is either buying or selling real estate!! Lynn always kept in touch and informed us of changes!! We found your company good, honorable, and reliable in all areas of our closing." -- Lynn Boyd assisting Bill and Vonna Murrin in purchasing an investment condo on Panama City Beach.
"Lynn was always very professional, she returned calls promptly and provided us all necessary paperwork via email and even showed us how to look up the Bay County property tax records. This was very helpful, as we purchased a foreclosure vacant lot and wanted to be sure all property taxes were paid and current. Thank you Lynn for your professionalism and quick responses to all our needs." Lynn Boyd was able to help Mitch and Kathy Hirth purchase a lot and also empowered them to find information that was important to them.

Just know as soon as we are ready you will be my Realtor." for Buyer Specialist Ben Gulley - testimonial from Mathew Murphy
