Testimonials
“Kourtney worked tirelessly with me from start to finish. I had no idea what to do, and helped me through everything. She always had that beautiful smile and positive attitude that helped me so much when I was nervous or feeling down. I highly recommend her for anyone ready to buy or sell. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Great as always!”
“Kourtney was excellent!!! She went far beyond helping me sell my house. She helped me step by step what I needed to do because I had no idea what to do. When I got nervous about anything, she calmly explained to me about everything that was going on. I would highly recommend her as an agent because she really does care about your needs.”
“Kourtney goes above and beyond in her service to her clients. She was always courteous and kind. She is a pleasure to work with and is very knowledgeable about the area.”
“I feel extremely lucky having Kourtney working alongside me as I opened a new chapter of my life. She was more than just a professional and knowledgeable real estate agent - For me, she was also a 'life coach', a consultant, a financial advisor, and a trustworthy new friend who genuinely cared about my future happiness. Kourtney has so many wonderful qualities. She was organized and paid close attention to details. She was a good listener and was attentive to my preferences and needs. She communicated with me and kept me informed 24/7, even on weekends. She had great understanding of the housing market in every neighborhood that we toured. She pointed out to me flaws of some of the properties that I liked (long deep crack in the basement foundation... an unsafe neighborhood was only one street away... listing price higher than the comps she had researched...); I was impressed and also was moved. I knew I was in good hands because my agent was on my side and was committed to doing the right thing. In just a few weeks, Kourtney helped me find a new home in a beautiful neighborhood with excellent resale value. Although there were roadblocks during the process, Kourtney advocated for me, supported my requests, provided solutions, and encouraged me to keep moving forward with her. I shall always be grateful for Kourtney's positive attitude, professionalism, passion, hard work, and integrity! She is the best!!”

“This is my second time using this team for my real estate needs and like the first, they were amazing. They go above and beyond to make the end to end process smooth and as stress-free as possible. I'm especially pleased with how they approached the sale of my home during this crazy market ...caring for my best interest but also showing compassion and understanding for the Buyers. They executed a plan that did not assume multiple offers, did not manipulate to push for a bidding war , showing that they are both fair and ethical. That goes a long way with me. While we still received 7 offers (tremendous result), even that was a bit stressful and weighed heavy on me, knowing what the Buyers we're going through. They talked through each offer with me and helped guide me in making the best decision. I also appreciate that they took the time to call each Buyer's Agent to let them know immediately after one was accepted in order to not just let them and their Buyers find out over MLS. I respect and appreciate that they are professional and compassionate, realizing the human side to these transactions..it is not just $$$ signs to them. They went above and beyond and always add special touches, like little gifts even beyond the close of sale. It all makes a difference and combines to be the perfect choice! I will not hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy their next home.”
“Great team!”

“It was a great experience and I would definitely recommend her to other friends and colleagues.”
