Catherine properly assessed our needs and showed us virtual tours & kept in constant communication with us. She helped us through the transition from another state & gave us vital information that made our move that much easier. She is very professional and has a heart of Gold! She really went beyond the call of duty for us and found us our forever home! Thanks to her we are now living in our dream house in our dream community! I would use her services and recommend them to anyone looking for a home!
Working with Catherine was a wonderful experience. Catherine was always prompt with responses and followed up with additional team members frequently. Her help was essential and it was a pleasure working with her.

Catherine was great to work with, and made the sales process easy from start to finish! I managed the sale from out of state, and could not have made this happen without her help. She was highly responsive, professional, knowledgable, friendly, provided me with market reports, attorney referrals, the works! I would happily use Catherine again, and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a good agent.

Catherine is the agent you want in your corner. Not only was she patient with me as a first-time homeowner, I could tell she genuinely cared about my interests and never pushed me to just "get a deal." It speaks for itself that she stood by me, with the same amout of energy, for nine months! I ended up finding my forever home and what made it better was that Catherine went to bat for me. Her negotiating skills are top notch and she made sure I got the best deal. I CANNOT recommend her enough. She will go above and beyond to answer your questions, she'll actually listen to what you are looking for, and finally, she will guide you to the home of your dreams. She's the best.

Catherine gave us suggestions on what would make our family home attractive to prospective buyers which then made it possible for us to sell it during the early part of the pandemic shut down.
Catherine was honest and open to my situation as I was not looking to purchase right away and was my first time buying. She said I will work with you until you have found something and take your time, buying is a process especially for the first time. Since October of 2019 she was showing me places and just purchased March 30, 2020. Excellent person to work with.

Catherine was excellent! She was responsive and professional, and did her homework thoroughly, so that our house sold very quickly for the best possible price! We would definitely recommend Catherine and her experienced Team to all home buyers and sellers.
Highly Recommended! Goes above and beyond to show the home and get it sold. Very knowledgeable on the market and can provide excellent guidance.
Catherine was flexible in her scheduling: offering honest and welcome advice throughout the home search. As a first time home buyer, I especially appreciated her checking in on me and talking me through what's to be expected in the coming month- week by week. She is friendly and a great person to have by your side during the entire process from search to close.

Catherine is extremely talented at what she does. I bought my first condo in May of 2018 and she stayed the course. The transaction presented many different challenges due to some additional HOA financial information that wasn't being reported to the lenders satisfaction and she dug into the numbers, did research and talked to the lender and Mgmt office to make-it-happen! She also helped me to determine the true value of a place and to really listen to what I truly wanted out of the entire experience. Catherine helped me to grow my expectations and to expect more from what a place that I wasn't super in love with. She communicated each listing's potential and matched my true needs to the lifestyle that I truly wanted. Catherine is the "Real Estate Whisperer" by all means. Lastly, she... Show More

Catherine was a Godsend on the sale of this home. She provided great advice to position myself to sell the home (even down to the type of finishes to buy) and she and her team worked tirelessly to ensure we sell as quickly and at as high a price as possible. She was consistent in her drive to get the house off the market and utilized all the resources at her disposal to market the property broadly. I look forward to working with Catherine in the future on the buying or selling side. You really feel like you have an advocate in her and her team.

Catherine was great! She was patient and knew just the type of home we were looking for.
We had a bad experience with a previous realtor and pretty much gave up, then we were introduced to Catherine. We told her what we wanted and she got exactly what we requested, as well as guiding us if she thought a property wasn't a good idea. After only around 4 months we found the perfect house and closed the deal, Catherine made sure we were in the loop 100% of the time and even informed us of some things we had no idea of. We appreciated all of the effort she put into the process and will definitely be recommending her to others.

Amazing service! I have never received such good service from an agent. Catherine genuinely cares; she understood my need and urgency in getting into a home. Her responsiveness and actions reflected those needs as if she were purchasing her own home. She was focused and aggressive when it came to getting the job done. Extremely pleased.

It was a pleasure to work with Catherine. She is very knowledgeable, hard working and easily to communicate with. I was not a first time buyer and looking for a place in a great school district for my son and within my budget. Katherine was there with me since the beginning of the process. she listened to my needs, spent a lot of time to search and to show me many places (so many that I did not even remember). She also returned my calls or emails promptly. Finally, when we found a right house, Katherine did everything that she could to make sure that I got that place.
I will definitely be referring her to friends and family. Thank you Katherine. You are the best of the best.

I highly recommend Catherine as a real estate agent/broker. I worked with Catherine on both the purchase and sale of Real Estate in Chicago. I was so pleased with her professionalism and dedication to helping me find the perfect property (2008). Catherine also helped me sell the same property after I had to move out of town (2013). She found buyers in an amazingly short period of time and got the property sold without me having to make any special trips back to Chicago. She took care of everything and I had no concerns throughout the entire process. For that I am very grateful and pleased.
Catherine was incredible our whole home buying process! She was incredibly flexible and accommodating to our schedule and our needs. We saw over 20 houses and put offers on 5 till one finally got accepted and she was amazing the whole time! We are so incredibly grateful for her expertise and help since this was the first time we've ever been house hunting and the first home that we've ever bought. She made what can be a stressful time very relaxing and exciting! We would highly recommend her to EVERYONE!
