Kathy's clients say it best...

From some buyers...

"Kathy exceeded my expectations when it came to communicating every step. Even though my purchase was a small lot, I was treated like I was buying a 700K home." -- D. Horne

"From August 2002 through January 2003, Kathy Auerbach served as our Buyer's Agent. Since we were in Tennessee and looking for a house in Washington state, this was no easy task. During the search process, Kathy answered every conceivable question we put to her--and there were many. During the looking process, she anticipated our every need--and there were many of those as well. When the time came to make the purchase, she went the "extra mile" to ensure that we got the house we really wanted...We would unequivocally recommend Kathy Auerbach to anyone seeking to purchase a home." - I. Penn, D. O'Connor

"Kathy Auerbach is the finest real estate agent with whom we have worked. In our 42 years of marriage, we have bought and sold five homes. No one has been better than Kathy. We were delighted with her services. Kathy is very knowledgeable. She has several board certifications which involved significant study and is the most qualified agent we have ever met. Her website is superb and reflects the hard work she has invested in learning all possible aspects of her profession.

Kathy is careful and diligent. She examines every aspect of a property, the agreement, and the deal. Her sense of value, and therefore of price, is substantiated by thoughtful research. This is reflected in a sound business proposition. She follows through on all details of the transaction to make sure that all deliverables are carried out. We worked through her in Bellingham while we were resident in California, and always felt confident that all aspects of the property and p urchase were being managed well.

Kathy is helpful and patient. We made several trips to the Bellingham/Ferndale area and she consistently prepared thoroughly to show us a multitude of houses in several different neighborhoods until we were satisfied that we had found the best value in the ideal location for us. We love our new home.

We happily recommend her without reservation. She is terrific." R., P. Miller

"There were times during the past year when we thought we must be crazy to even think about purchasing a home from a distance of 2500+ miles... But, we had YOU as our realtor! We can't imagine there is another realtor in Washington who could match your tireless zeal, accessibility, industry knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile for their client. You always responded to our emails in a timely fashion with loads of information and good advice. We were especially impressed with the amount of time you devoted to us during our visits to Bellingham.. We also appreciated all the assistance you provided after our offer had been accepted--your attention to detail alleviated any anxiety we might have had about transacting the closing from such a long distance. From start to finish, we could not be more pleased with the service you provided. Plus, you were just plain fun to work with!" -- S., K. Reed

"How many people can say that on the very first day of house-hunting, they found the right home? Well, with Kathy Auerbach as my realtor, that's exactly what happened. . . . From our first phone conversation to the day of closing, Kathy was ALWAYS on top of the situation. Her knowledge, efficiency, and personality put me at ease. It was evident that she wanted to help me find a special HOME--not just a residence." -- J. Baunton

"Kathy listened to all our needs and wants in a house and showed us only houses that met those requirements. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous!...If there is a better realtor than you, she has a big red "S" on her chest." -- D., G. Feray

"We have been in our new home for six months now and enjoy both the house and the area immensely. Being newcomers to Bellingham and the US, we knew very little about the area and the differences between the US and Canadian real estate systems. Your in-depth knowledge of both the market and the ins and outs of the US system were very helpful to us, including the referral to a mortgage broker. Also, your patience in working with us until we found the right house was particularly appreicated. It was obvious at all times that you were working hard on our behalf and at no time did we feel pressured to make a decision on a particular house. Thank you for all your hard work on our behalf as well as the follow-up calls to check on us; it has certainly been an important part of our settling-in process. -- G. Glazier

"Kathy was available at all times, even at the spur of the moment, which was very helpful for us out-of-towners. She's very knowledgeable and hardworking and just kept going and going until we found the house we wanted, where we wanted." - G. Loeffler, M. Fehrman

From some sellers...

"To sum up what we thought about the service you provided us, '[you] were a godsend.' Being a very nonreligious fellow, this was quite a statement coming from [my husband], not just once, but several times. When our [previous] listing expired, we were quite at a loss as to how to find a new realtor. Your initial phone call, rather than sending a letter (as two other agents did), was the approach we'd been seeking. In a very timely manner, you told us what we needed to do to sell our house and suggested an appropriate price. You were straight-forward and honest. We thank you for that. It was apparent from the start that you were working hard to find a buyer. And you found (my) 10++! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to others."--D., K. Radder

"We appreciate the various and wide ranging means of communication Kathy uses to get the word out about our home being for sale. The first showing was one day after the sign went up." [Ed. note: The home had an accepted offer within 6 days!] --D., K. Lyon

"Our home and property had been on the market for 2 1/2 years--with no action. We decided to switch agents, choosing you on a recommendation from a friend--and within 3 weeks to the day, we had an offer, and 27 days after that we were realizing our dream of being retired. Kathy--you did an awesome job and we thank you." -- M., G. Sarich

"Kathy was available to answer questions and concerns 24 hrs/day. She is very knowledgeable about her job and the area marketplace. She knew exactly how long it would take to sell using her tried/true ideas and she knew the right price, etc. She is awesome! We have used her services. . . as both buyer and seller. . . and I wouldn't go anywhere else if this need should ever arise. . . .We have had two wonderful experiences buying and selling on two separate occasions with Kathy and I will recommend her to anyone looking for realtor services." C., P. Waltari

"Selling your home? This past year I learned a great deal about selling a home. It's not so much the company you select, but the person you choose. Kathy Auerbach is one of the most professional sales agents I have ever dealt with. She is very kind, thorough, and detail-centered when it comes to selling a home. If I ever have to sell another home, I would not hesitate to give Kathy the listing. My mother and I would like to take this opportunity to thank Kathy personally for a job well done." -- C. Read

"Kathy provided a thorough and professional service in selling our home. She kept us informed every step of the way and expertly helped keep a deal 'together' that could have easily fallen apart. Together--we got it done!" --J. Ross, J. Brotherton

"Kathy was professional, persistent, and punctual. She and her co-professionals kept in touch and answered all our questions and concerns fullly and promptly. Our home sold while others around us lingered." - W., C. Dent

"We tried to sell our home on our own for three months. Although we had some inquiries, no buyer stepped up with an offer. Then, less than three weeks after we listed with Kathy Auerbach, we were presented with an offer! The result was a price higher than we had been asking when trying to sell on our own, and our closing was scheduled less than a month later. . . Leave the selling of your home to a professional realtor like Kathy Auerbach. If you are serious about selling your home, you need an agent who appreciates your home and will work hard to convey its attributes to others for a quick sale and one that will make you happy." -- J., A. Aquino
