During one of our first meetings, you were quick to understand my housing needs and preferences and were effectively able to weigh, with me, the pros and cons of each house we visited. I was impressed with your practical knowledge. It took an uncommonly long time to close this deal and I'm sure there were a lot of details you took care of "behind the scenes". I really appreciate how you and your colleagues facilitated the entire procedure for me - not the least by your reassuring positive energy and commitment to achieve the best result for me. I would not hesitate to recommend you highly to anyone in need of a Realtor - you are a truly caring, very competent professional."

When I had questions about any of the houses, you found the answers and gave me the information very quickly."


Joe & Kelly Ducey

"Continue doing the same thing as you did for us. It works! Making a purchase sight unseen from New Zealand could have been a "scary" endeavor, but you made it surprise free. We thank you and your staff for all the help you provided in getting quotes for us and getting a garage door installed. "


Miles and Tess

"We were most happy with the way that you stuck with us for about "60" viewings and then the repeats,and were ready to look at more. Also the way you kept with us to get things done after the sale. Cathy you are a gem. Honesty is a very good trait of Cathy, also a wonderful sense of humor! You've got to have this to survive all those endless and tiresome home viewings. We picked her among Remax agents online and we never looked back. Keep up the good work!"

You went so far above and beyond our expectations.  We could not have chosen a better individual to help us buying our first home.  You are very knowledgeable about all aspects of buying a home, which really helped us, since we are both so green to realestate purchases.

"I am a bit of a recluse, and when I do got out, I mostly find people and businesses incompetent and aggravating. So needless to say, the thought of going through the home selling process was a big concern! I saw an ad for Cathy and decided to email her. Before I knew it, she was appraising my home, and I felt so comfortable with her that I decided right then to list with her. Within a week, I had a nice offer that I immediately accepted. And, even though there were some unique problems to deal with, Cathy took care of everything! Thanks again, Cathy!"


Ron Clark

"Our concerns were always listened to and when we wanted to arrange another viewing it was always arranged quickly & efficiently."


Carla & Sheldon

We both appreciate the personal service you gave us, spending so much time with us as we needed until we found our home. We were happy that you called us with homes on the market or coming on the market that you thought we'd be interested in. That was really helpful. You were easy to contact and seem to work all the time!"


Valerie Desbiens

"You and your staff were great! Prompt, courteous and caring. Professionals all the way. I could not have had such an easy & care free transaction. I was most happy with the time span that you and your support staff returned calls. All concerns were very quickly looked into and dealt with. Thanks for everything!"


Alicia & Dean

"I was happy it was a quick sale.  Without having to lower my price a lot.  You were good to us."
