Capital Rivers hired two extremely competent and professional individuals. Kelsey and Carrie were referred to me and by no surprised they exceeded my expectations.

Highly Personable and Knowledgeable at What They Do
Carrie & Kelsey are hands down the best! — This team has been an absolute pleasure to work with as they are highly personable and knowledgeable at what they do. My partners and I were on a short timeline in searching for a commercial lease and these ladies made it happen! In our direct exchanges with Carrie, she went out of her way to ensure she met us with where we were at and continually advocated on our behalf. It’s truly refreshing to work with professionals who are really attuned to our needs and there to keep an eye out for us. We loved how easy it was to work with them through the entire commercial lease process — from the big picture search to the nitty-gritty close. Carrie was very quick to distill what was important to us and gave us plenty of invaluable guidance so we knew exactly what we were stepping into. We’ll be sure to reach out to Carrie and Kelsey again when we have more real estate opps in the future. — Highly recommend them!
