I was in the market to purchase a new home.
Trying to find the perfect real estate agent is hard to do! It's someone you have to be able to talk to, someone you have to be able to trust, and someone you won't mind spending hours with! The process can take a while, so you need to find the right person.
I've had bad experiences in the past with unmotivated real estate agents. I found a GEM with Kathy Llamas!
Kathy specializes in distressed properties (i.e. - Foreclosures, Short Sales, etc). She has experience in this market - and nows how to handle the sales.
We were looking for a short sale or foreclosure (to take advantage of the great deals in the housing market). Not only did Kathy spend time with us ensuring that we found the "right" home for us, she also got us in touch with a mortgage broker who got us an excellent interest rate.
Her experience helped push our short-sale through the red tape - and got us into our home faster than many of our friends who started the process months ahead of us.
I can't recommend Kathy enough. If you're in the market for a Realtor, be sure to contact her. I know that if I'm ever in the market again, I'm definitely going to be reaching out to her. She made the entire process enjoyable and not as stressful as in the past.
Thanks Kathy (and Connect Realty)! read more
