" We worked with Dawn Shumway, Realtor, in 2003 to find our home in the Heights.   More than a knowledgeable neighborhood realtor, she is a pillar of the Heights community which she sells and promotes, at the same time. Dawn 's work as a Realtor and community leader is a reflection of her integrity, common sense, good humor, and professionalism. She lives up to her motto, "serving a hometown near downtown. " ..."
