Rosalie Dimmick Larsen
Principal Broker/Owner
1541 SW 14th Place Warrenton,Oregon 97146
“Rosalie just opened a new boutique real
estate company! We are excited that she
did because she was our realtor and helped
us find the perfect home in Astoria.
Throughout the search process, Rosalie
was a calm and steady support to our
needs and wants. She also convinced us to
buy the property adjoining the house. This
was great, strategic advice. We received
excellent and expert service and we highly
recommend Rosalie as a real estate broker
who puts her clients’ needs first. We believe
you’ll be happy too! Sincerely, Dan and
Sue Stein, Astoria Oregon”.
