Catherine Maslowski-Yerges

After selling my old house, we moved into an airbnb while househunting but I was not expecting the post-COVID-shutdown real estate market to have such high pent-up demand! With so much competition, it was difficult at times to get showing appointments but Cathy was up at midnight to secure them. We toured so many homes together and made several offers that were outbid, often by a cash buyer paying $100K more. I was really starting to get discouraged because my whole goal for 2021 was to find a new house and get moved and settled before my son started school in mid-August. Cathy had her eyes peeled for me and called me on a Friday afternoon to tell me that a house had just gone on the market that she thought I would want to see because it met most of my criteria and was close to the school. We toured it that day, submitted an offer that evening, and it was accepted on Sunday! All deadlines were met like clockwork and we closed 3 weeks later! I would not have achieved my 2021 goal if it had not been for Cathy!

When I decided to sell my house last fall, getting my house on the market was fully dependent on a siding company scheduling and finishing the job. Cathy was totally flexible and accommodating during the whole process! With her amazing interior decorating skills, she staged my house room by room over several weeks as I was able to pack stuff up and move it into my garage, and transformed my kid-and dog-friendly home into what looked like an upscale hotel. Cathy took the final photos and listed my house the very same day that the siding job was completed (wet paint was still drying on the shed) so that we wouldn't miss out on a weekend of showings. It went under contract quickly and meeting the rest of the deadlines went super smoothly!
