Claudia Kern has assisted our family with finding two rental homes and most recently, our first home purchase. She quickly went from our realtor to a part of the family. Claudia stands out as a realtor in so many ways. She is always very professional and communicates promptly and clearly. Claudia explains each step of the home-buying process with expert detail and insight.  She worked beautifully with both our mortgage broker and the seller's agent to make the entire home-buying process and closing effortless and stress-free.  Claudia's vast experience and knowledge of the industry is extremely valuable and she was able to help us develop a strategy to purchase our home with very little money down in a market where multiple offers were commonplace.  I believe that the main quality that sets Claudia apart from the rest is the fact that she truly cares about her clients and finding a home for someone is, without a doubt, her pleasure.
