"Patti's always been very self-motivated and really, really worked hard in attaining success in the real estate business. She came with us when she first got into the real estate business. One thing I will say about Patti -- Patti listened to you. ... She always went the extra mile to achieve success. About 25 years ago, I went to a motivational speaker. One thing he said [was], 'To be successful in sales, you have to know what you're doing, love what you're doing and believe in what you're doing.' I think Patti fits all three of those. That's what makes her so successful."

"My mom is one of the most hard-working people that I know. She goes nonstop seven days a week. That beeper and that cell phone are just continuously going off. She's pretty motivated. I don't know about other people, but she is a role model for me, just with her work ethic. ... She's not all about business, either. She's trying to give something back to the community."

"We've become friends.. I truly enjoyed working with her. She's just real down to earth person, a very honest person. She's one of my very favorite people."

"She's quite ethical. That's a very important thing in our business. She's one of the most ethical people that I know. She's very self-motivated. Patti goes under the premise when she works for someone and they're her client that she's going to treat them the way that she wants to be treated if she was in their role."
