"Katie is awesome. She went the extra mile for us to make our overseas move easy. She immediately understood what we were looking for and found the perfect house within a day. Katie will find a solution to any challenge. She helped us through the entire process from a continent away and was a perfect advocate and advisor through the sale. If you are doing a military move, you want her as your agent. Can’t say enough about how much we appreciate her help." Thom C.
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Katie and the experience we had working with her!Buying a home is stressful enough, but buying a home in Kansas while living internationally in Italy and preparing for a military PCS with kids and what felt like a million pieces of luggage is a whole different level of stressful. Katie somehow made the entire home-buying process feel easy.From the very beginning, she went above and beyond for our family. She helped us search for the perfect home from thousands of miles away, completed virtual walkthroughs so we could truly see and understand each property, answered all of our questions, and guided us through every step of the buying process. We never felt like the distance put us at a disadvantage because Katie made sure we had everything we needed to make informed decisions.But what really stood out was that her help didn't stop once we bought the house. When we finally arrived in Kansas after an exhausting international move, she continued to go above and beyond to help our family transition into our new home. After a long PCS from another country, having someone willing to step in and make things just a little easier meant more to us than she probably realizes.She also had incredibly thoughtful resources waiting for us in our new home, including pamphlets and books about Kansas, Missouri, and the Leavenworth area. She even created a home binder for us to keep track of updates, maintenance, and important information, along with a directory of trusted professionals she recommends for things like HVAC maintenance and other home services. Those little details show just how much she genuinely cares about the families she works with—not just during the sale, but after the keys are handed over.This entire move has been exciting, exhausting, overwhelming, and a little crazy, but Katie was one of the biggest reasons getting into our new home felt so smooth and stress-free. She didn't just help us buy a house—she helped our family feel welcomed and supported as we started this new chapter in Kansas.If you are looking to buy or sell a home, I HIGHLY recommend Katie. She is knowledgeable, dependable, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. We are incredibly grateful that she was our realtor and cannot thank her enough for everything she did for our family!

Katis is incredibly knowledgable on our local area. She is honest and fast with meeting times and is always prompt. She always had our best interests in mind as well as being realistic wih oour offeres and chances of purchasing multiple homes.

Katie was phenomenal! She was able to show us several houses via FaceTime and allowed us to find our home even though we were states away. We appreciate everything Katie did for us!!
