Kalina Wasman is an exceptional real estate professional. When our family first met with Kalina, joined by Jennifer and Andrew Oldham from the Oldham Group, we desperately needed a real estate firm we could trust. With a previous agent, our home sat on the market for more than 45 days without receiving the offers and attention enjoyed by other houses in the area. Kalina quickly assessed the situation and came up with a strategic marketing plan, relying on her extensive experience and knowledge of the local real estate market.
From the first meeting, Kalina and the Oldham Group inspired confidence, outlining a proposal and timeline to relaunch the house quickly and successfully. Kalina demonstrated a command of significant online real estate marketing platforms, explaining how to use them advantageously as a promotional tool. Mindful of timing and the funds already spent to bring the house to market, Kalina carefully determined and emphasized the importance of a few budget-friendly ways to highlight the house's appeal. Kalina's creative vision, attention to detail, and organizational skills were top notch. She was upbeat and intelligent, promptly responding to emails and texts and patiently answering questions. Kalina also was collaborative, including us in meetings and discussions about home staging, landscaping, and repairs. Whether annotating home inspection reports or considering marketing materials, Kalina had clever ideas that improved the sales process. She managed the schedule smoothly, ensuring that all work was on track and keeping us informed as to the progress.
Kalina handled the open houses herself and kept potential buyers excited about the home. She anticipated any concerns buyers might have, ready to provide reassuring, straightforward solutions. Kalina didn't let a sales opportunity pass her by, extending an open house for buyers who arrived shortly after it ended and accommodating other agents to show the house upon request. We could count on Kalina to call after an open house ended with a full update and her typical positive energy.
Kalina and the Oldham Group promised they would generate a buzz and positive momentum for the house, and they delivered. Within a few days after the first open house, our home received seven offers, all well over the list price. During the offer process, Kalina expertly evaluated offers and negotiated on our behalf, demonstrating the skill and integrity we had come to expect. Jennifer and Andrew Oldham provided an added layer of advice and support. Thanks to outstanding representation by Kalina and the Oldham Group, the house sold for almost 12% over the list price. Kalina is a star, and her sensitive handling of the sale of our beloved family home meant the world to us. We wholeheartedly recommend Kalina and the Oldham Group. read more
