Posted on Laura ZaharakoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate was a pleasure to work with and always available to answer my questions or take me to tour homes. She had great suggestions for my appliances and saved me the heartache of buying a refrigerator that wouldn’t have been aesthetically as pleasing as a counter-depth one in the small space. She’s amazing, and helped find me my dream home.Posted on Deb GrutterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate actually helped us buy our home in SCW via FaceTime from Michigan. She was wonderful to work with through the whole process. She walked us through the houses we wanted to see, and gave us good advice, including those things we couldn't see for ourselves, such as streets that might be too busy for us with our dogs. She took care of us through the inspections, since we couldn't be there ourselves, and was our go to for every question. She took such good care of us. And we closed on our house without ever leaving Michigan. When we later made it out to AZ, we were so excited to find our home as beautiful as we expected, and we were so greatful for Kate's guidance. We highly recommend her, she is highly professional and a very sweet young woman.Posted on Scott BaxterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. She went above and beyond during the entire process, and was a pleasure to work with at every stage. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. I can’t put into words how fortunate we were to have her as our agent. Thank you Kate for all your hard work, and for being such an incredible agent!Posted on Harris GertrudeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish, Kate was incredibly helpful in finding a perfect home for my family and I. I cannot overstate how grateful we were to have her as our realtor. She always responded to any questions and inquiries we had about any of the numerous properties we visited. Her expertise about the Glendale and Peoria buyers market and prospective neighborhoods was a key element in finding a home that worked for our needs and budget.Posted on Jesse KnightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate was a very big help to us. We just recently moved to the Phoenix area from Ca and would not have done well without her help. She was very patient, understanding and very friendly . I would recommend Kate to all my friends and family. You will not go wrong with her as your agent.Posted on Hardin PeggyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate was incredible. Always available by text, email or phone. Her advice was always spot on and when asked for her opinion she gave it which we found to be accurate. She really had excellent knowledge of the market and if not at her fingertips then would get back to me quickly with the answer. A real joy to have her on my side especially in this market.Posted on James LaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate did an exceptional job!
