Katherine was recommended to my husband and me by a friend. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is quite knowledgeable about the area and the real estate market and has an upbeat attitude and engaging personality. At the time of our purchase, the market in Nevada City was competitive. When we became discouraged, she remained positive that we would find the perfect house, and we did. Katherine was also excellent at understanding our concerns and adjusting her suggestions with those in mind. I highly recommend her.

Katherine helped me purchase a complicated side by side double lot from two separate owners. She knows the Grass Valley area and performs all of the broker paperwork online flawlessly. Everything was doubled because of the dual lot purchase. Job well done.

Katherine was thoroughly professional at all times. She took what was a complicated sales transaction, simplified it, and brought it to a successful and expeditious conclusion. I'll use her again if the occasion arises.

I have used Katherine for real estate transactions several times and have always found her to be helpful, friendly and thoroughly professional. I recommend her to other potential clients without reservation

As an investor rather than a home buyer, I was looking for efficiency and attention to detail. Katherine excelled in both. in addition, she has a warm personality and goes out of her way to make the process as easy as possible.
I recommend Katherine to anyone seeking an honest, forthright and effective agent.

Katherine kept us continutally informed about the property's status, was punctual in her appointments, and treated us with respect. I think she worked hard to represent us in the most effective way possible. For all these reasons, I would gladly employ her again.

Katherine is a fantastic realtor. From the moment we talked I knew she was the Realtor we wanted and needed to seller our Mother-In-Laws home in Lake of the Pine. She was friendly, knowledgeable, timely, did everything she said she was going to do. The went above and beyond in meeting all of our expectations. The end result was we got more than the list price and closed sooner than anticipated. All Excellent!!

We have had an outstanding experience buying our second home with Katherine's help. In today's world, buying a home has an unbelievable amount of data to go through, with many twists and turns along the way. Katherine was on top of it throughout the process, reaching out to us immediately with details and suggested action plans. On the flip side, we had countless questions and she was very prompt with her responses via email or phone call, day or night! We are so very grateful for her partnership with us and recommend her highly!

This is the 3rd time we've used Katherine to sell or buy a home in the Grass Valley area. For the 2 times we've sold we've gotten full price or just below. Katherine has done an great job negotiating all the issues that come up with selling a home for a successful closing each time.
Katherine and her husband have become friends of ours during the many years we've used her as our Real Estate Professional while living in the Grass Valley area from 2011 thru 2015. We will miss them with our move out of the area and also out of state.
Thank you again Katherine for your persistence of getting our house sold and closed. Tricia and Jim Pellegrino

When we called Katherine re putting our house on the market she said its the perfect time, it will sell quickly. 2 weeks on the market and we had an offer. She helped us thru some rough patches along the way. E
We closed on time and are now in our wonderful new home. Thanks again Katherine for helping us sell and purchase our another great home.

We had some critical issues to deal with and Katherine had to go out of the country on a trip and her substitute jumped in and it all went very smoothly. my husband and I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a home in this area.

Katherine made the process of finding and buying a house easier and less stressful. She knows the right questions to ask to focus buyers and draw out information for her to target what they are looking for in a house and then to hone in on location the right house. Further her knowledge of the area and responsiveness to every need, big and small, and flexibility with our busy/hectic schedules made the process much more pleasant and doable from a distance.

We LOVED having Katherine as our agent for buying our new home. She had great communication, she was attentive to our schedule and very flexible. She quickly learned our needs and wants and helped us find the home of our dreams! She was great at negotiating terms and quick with the docu-sign. Her excellant knowledge, dedication and effort made the whole process smooth sailing. And to top it off, she has an amazingly warm and loving personality.

Katherine was great to work with. She was there anytime of day to deal with any questions I had. She was at the site for all inspections when I could not be there and reported back very quickly. I would highly recommend her. She is also always very friendly.

Unbelievable service. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND what we expected, kept us on course, and guided us through our first home purchase. We had a very looooong and drawn out process, and she got us there . We could not be happier with Katherine's service. In just a few home visits, and we had many, she knew if the place was for us or not. Amazing, we are so thankful we had her on our side.
