5 Star Service - Katie was great to deal with. It was my first home and she answered all of my questions and helped me through the process easily. She was friendly and easy to approach about anything. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking at buying/selling .
5 Star Service Katie was hard working from the start, redoing all the photos to her standard and quality. Every week she was doing open homes of which I was not paying her for. She stuck by me with the price that I wanted for my property and was genuine I believe in doing the right thing by me, and not just wanting to get that quick sale. She communicated all interest and people that came through and kept me up to date with everything that was happening. She has also been very willing in helping me with advice and knowledge with possible future properties. Handing over and trusting the sale and responsibility of your largest and most valuable asset to someone else is a very hard thing to do, but I believe Katie to be trustworthy and have no hesitation in recommending her for anyone wanting to sell their property.
We recently had the pleasure of purchasing a new house through Katie Martin from @realty and it has been a great experience for us from the very beginning. As soon as we first met Katie, we knew that she was a real people-person as she was so friendly and welcoming and she instantly made us feel at ease. She was always approachable and happy to help whenever we had questions or needed clarification about anything. Furthermore, her vast experience, knowledge and advice on all matters real estate provided us with the confidence we needed to undertake this significant transition in our lives. Throughout this whole process, Katie was extremely professional and was always contactable and efficient in her communication. She was also incredibly generous with her time on numerous occasions and we never felt rushed when we were looking through the house that we were purchasing. We are very grateful to have been able to deal with an agent like Katie and we are incredibly thankful for all her efforts and for making a major process so much more straight forward and manageable. We will most certainly recommend Katie as a real estate agent to our family and friends, and we will not hesitate to utilise her services again in the future when the need arises. Thanks again Katie - you were amazing!!
