Kathy was referred to us through a friend. We were moving from NJ and initially were looking in the Chapel Hill and Durham area but pivoted to Raleigh to be closer to the high school one of our sons was going to be attending. Kathy always made time to show us all the homes we wanted to see. She was a fantastic negotiator with the builder we ultimately bought from. She helped line up a great home inspector, helped us find a lawyer for our closing, and recommended a home and auto insurance company. She is 100% professional, crazy smart, hard working and a delight to work with. Her communication with us throughout the whole process was fantastic. Having Kathy as your realtor you will always have someone who is in your corner and always advocating with your interests first.

Kathy is always great to work with. Friendly, professional, supportive and knowledgabe. I've worked with her buying and selling my first home and trust her to lead the way!

She and her team went above and beyond to ensure my property looked its best. Her outstanding negotiation skills allowed her to represent me effectively and protect my interests throughout the closing process. I would highly recommend her and her team without hesitation.

Kathy made selling my home stress free. She knew the market and recommended a price to make my home competitive and sell quickly. Her communication is excellent - she kept me informed every step the loop every step of the way. She truly went above and beyond to make sure my home was ready to sell. I have also used Kathy to purchase 2 homes, and she is excellent on that front as well! I feel so taken care of when I work with Kathy, and know that I can count on her no matter what surprises may arise. She always prioritizes her clients wants and needs. She truly makes you feel like part of her family. I will always use Kathy for my real estate needs and give her my highest recommendation!

Kathy made the difficult process of selling a house seem easy from start to finish. She was great at giving us advice on how to prepare for the sell. She was spot on when it came to pricing and marketing and she went out of her way to make the contract and closing as simple as possible. I would definitely recommend her if you are in the market to buy or sell.

We were referred to Kathy Shaw by a neighbor and she turned out to be a godsend. We had already relocated to Texas and our Chapel Hill home, where we had three wonderful children who loved to color on the walls, was really in need of a lot of work. Like any seller, we hoped to maximize profit while keeping to a reasonable repairs budget and ensuring the buyer would be happy with what they received as we had not long ago been on the purchasing side. On top of that, we needed an agent who would be willing to coordinate those repairs. We interviewed more than one and ultimately chose Kathy because she had a vision of what the home could be. This became clearly evident when we reached the final days and finally saw the finished product. Her brilliant work in coordinating, negotiating, overseeing, staging, and showcasing our home was something I don't think many others would have been able to accomplish. We felt so proud of what was being put on the market. As in any real estate transaction, we had to change course here and there with changes in situational circumstances. I quickly realized we were working with a true master in her field. We began to defer almost entirely to her professional opinion, which proved very effective and valuable. She kept within our defined budget and her contacts in the community were all very reasonable in cost and excellent in quality. In the end, I believe Kathy Shaw very uniquely completed an enormous feat that few other realtors could. She made our home something we were bursting with pride in as we saw the listing go live. She expertly counseled us and navigated through major shifts and ultimately crossed the finish line with extremely happy parties on all sides. I cannot recommend Kathy Shaw enough. You are lucky to have her on your side!

Kathy is fantastic. Her knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond sets her apart. Her extensive experience really shines in her ability to navigate any complex issues that could arise during the buying/selling process. She has a person for everything! She is always available, professional, and looking out for the best interests of her clients. We will 1000% be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to everyone we know!

Kathy exceeded our expectations as the selling agent from the very beginning. She is extremely organized and went above and beyond every step of the way to make the experience as seamless as possible. Kathy fully advocated for us throughout negotiations, and I genuinely believe we would not have received the return on our property with a different agent.

I met Kathy Shaw when I first chose to move to Chapel Hill. I was in need of a Realtor, and Kathy came highly recommended. I was immediately impressed. Kathy has a tremendous work ethic, and is extremely knowledgeable about the Triangle residential real estate market. Kathy helped me to find the perfect house in a very competitive market in 2021. Recently, I chose to relocate once again and relied heavily on Kathy's advice and selling skills. Kathy guided me in properly preparing my home for sale, presented my home to an extensive market network, negotiated the best offer among many, and stayed by my side throughout the sale process. She even advised me when I asked her opinion regarding my new home purchase effort in another market. Kathy is a tremendous resource in her capacity as a real estate agent and I highly recommend her.

I recently worked with Kathy to sell my house and I couldn't be more pleased. From the beginning of the process she was very communicative - thorough, timely, and clear. I knew exactly what to expect, even down to approximate timelines. She clearly knows the market, and her pricing recommendations were solidly backed by research and experience. Kathy made prepping for the listing so easy - she arranged for some much-needed landscaping, power-washing, and she even brought over colorful flowers to add a little more "zing" to the front porch. She managed showings and an open house smoothly, and was carefully to work around my schedule. Because of her work, I got a great offer on the house the first weekend it was listed! Kathy remained communicative through the closing process and was with me every step of the way, explaining things and making everything quick and easy. This is actually the second time I've worked with Kathy - I also worked with her to buy a house, and she was just as amazing then. She really took the time to understand what mattered to me, and found the perfect house for me. If/when I sell or buy another house, Kathy will absolutely be my first call!

I couldn’t be more delighted that I chose to work with Kathy. She’s extremely knowledgeable about the market, helped craft an offer that beat out others on my dream home, has an exceptional eye for detail, recommended exceptional partners (mortgage broker, inspector, attorney) and was just all around wonderful to work with. I’m so grateful to have her as my real estate agent.
