GWENDOLYN KILPATRICK

Like many Gen Xers, we entered the market stone cold, without prior knowledge of the how and way things are done. Our initial agent wasn’t truly worthy of the term- he basically made himself available for offers, but was not involved in locating listings, and forget about offering any perspective on what prices were reasonable and/or which areas were safe. As it happened we bumped into our now dear friend Gwen at a listing where she was showing to one of her other clients. She greets all with an unphasable enthusiasm, and a big welcoming grin, and she is always asking questions and offering her experienced perspectives, and so we were immediately impressed. When asked if she would be our agent she was quick to say she wouldn’t poach another agent’s customers, but once we explained we rarely even talked to the current fellow she agreed. LUCKY US ! What followed was about a year of frequent viewings, with weekly phone chats about what/where she should look/find for us. She was active in determining our wants and enthusiastic about finding us top value prospects in our range. In the midst of this she also became curious about and engaged in our personal adventures, as well as including us in hers. Gwen is a rare bird. She is a person of utmost quality and integrity who genuinely cares for her clients, and endeavors to meet their specific needs as closely as possible, all the while immersing herself in their lives. She would be better than most at her job if she was just doing work, but she’s the best because she’s called to help people, which she does extremely well, because she truly cares about us. She pays attention because she’s honestly curious about and entertained by her clients and shared in our satisfaction when we finally signed papers. I can’t recommend her enough, she is a class act, and one of very few remaining professionals doing good things for the people in such a naturally personable way.

Gwen was a dream to work with during the purchase of our property. She was very supportive and knowledgeable in the process and gave us great anticipatory guidance along the way. She maintained frequent communication with us every step of the way and kept in contact with the selling agent and lender, and really worked hard to keep our process on track. She skillfully helped us navigate a few complications along the way and got us over the finish line. Without a doubt I plan to hire Gwen when any future real estate needs arise.

I do not even know where to begin. Gwen made buying a home a great journey for me. She never made me feel uncomfortable and she helped me every step of the way! She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand from making the offer, to working with my mortgage broker (who was also awesome!). Berkshire Hathway Home Services/Drysdale Properties are so lucky to have Gwen as a Realtor with their company. Gwen is a breath of fresh air, extremely knowledgeable, very professional, experienced, and helpful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

If it wasn't for Gwen, we would not have our home! She was amazing throughout the whole process, and really went above and beyond. She was very receptive and really listening to the things that we wanted, needed, and were not interested in for a home. Gwen was proactive in sending us information and options, often went to see homes to see if they would be viable options to share with us, had conversations with other agents to get additional information, and just generally lent her considerable expertise to the process. I recommend Gwen to anyone who is looking for a home without hesitation!

Gwen was both supportive and efficient in getting my property on the market during the COVID 19 crisis. We were in contract very fast and closed as expected without any issues. I would be happy to do it again. Hats off to Gwen!
