There’s a lot to selling a home and we really did our homework when looking for the best agent we could get find when putting our home on the market. We not only acquired one of the best agents in the area we got one of the hardest working most helpful agents we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. Not only did she sell our home quickly and over our asking price she helped us with all the details that make moving so stressful. We feel extremely blessed to have had her as our agent and friend and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for the best agent available.

Kathy is very knowledgable and has fantastic relationships that help the complex process move smoothly. During COVID it was particularly cumbersome and required distance in communications but she made it work to our advantage. Thank you Kathy. We love our new home.

Kathy is extremely knowledgeable about real estate in the area. We have worked with Kathy on three different transactions, buying and selling, in the last 5 years. When the need arises we will definitely call on Kathy's expertise again! She is very proactive, keeps all commitments, knows the market and everyone in it, and she goes out of her way with service people recommendations and staging. We highly recommend Kathy to anyone. We were very pleased with her expertise and service.

Kathy helped us sell our home in Thousand Oaks. We had an extremely positive experience working with her. Kathy is extremely knowledgable in all things real estate. She knows many tradespeople in the community, and gave us excellent referrals for getting our house ready for sale. She was proactive in marketing our home, and ultimately brought in a very good buyer. We have recommended her to friends and neighbors who also had a good experience working with her. In our opinion, she is one of the best real estate agents in the Conejo Valley.

Kathy is simply the best! 7 years ago we used her to help us find our beautiful home in Thousand Oaks. So when we decided to move closer to our grandkids & sell our house it was a no brainer who we would use! Kathy goes above & beyond to make sure your experience goes as smoothly as possible. It would be hard to find a realtor that works harder than Kathy & takes care of all the little things so you don't have to. Plus she's just an awesome person! You will never go wrong with Kathy on your side!

Kathy Smiley recently assisted me with my home purchase. In a sellers market, I was so happy to have a realtor who was proactive and responsive. She took the time ago answer my questions, tirelessly drove me around to open houses, advised me about neighborhood dynamics, and was very accessible by phone and email. I texted her one morning with a new listing I had seen and she showed it to me that day on my lunch break. When I entered into a purchase contract, Kathy was super proactive and stayed ahead of timelines. She has great relationships with different agencies and I was happy with her referrals for mortgage, escrow, etc. I'm thankful she had the knowledge and expertise to walk me through purchasing my new home!

My bottom line to any perspective buyer/seller in the greater Conejo Valley is: SIMPLIFY YOUR REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION; TALK TO KATHY SMILEY! I was fortunate enough to find Kathy in the summer of 2016 when I was beginning to make plans to sell my home in WLV. I immediately liked Kathy as she was friendly, energetic, sincere and had a great sense of humor! I was a novice and alone in this process and a little bit terrified. Kathy stepped up to the plate and very quickly gained my trust and my confidence. She guided me every step of the way and dealt with my every concern - every detail - with promptness, patience and considerate understanding of my needs. Kathy made me feel like I was her ONLY client, making herself available nearly 24/7. She was there for the initial plan-of-action strategy. She was there to help with my storage unit - which pieces stay, which pieces go. She was there for my staging needs. And she was there with her amazing marketing plan and her excellent marketing recommendations! Kathy also had a vast array of professional contacts to come to my aid with last minute "fix-ups" and general home improvements. She was very dedicated and tenacious and always did what I felt was in my best interest. I found her to have integrity, unsurpassed knowledge in her field, perseverance and very reliable communication skills. Maybe, best of all, Kathy LOVES her job and it shows! Turns out I wasn't terrified, even a little, with Kathy Smiley at my side!! Thank you Kathy and kudos to a great team! And to my extremely smooth and happy experience. ??

We worked with Kathy 5 years ago when we purchased our home, so she was the first agent we called when we decided to sell. Kathy showed us again that she is truly one of the best in her field. She used the latest technology to market our house and helped us to find a great buyer within a few days of listing. We have worked with Kathy multiple times as both buyers and as sellers. I would highly recommend Kathy Smiley due to her integrity, knowledge, and excellent communication and customer service

Wanting a fast sale on my house, I selected Kathy Smiley because of her totally "can do" attitude and her use of cutting edge marketing techniques which exposed my home to a very wide audience. Her use of 3D interactive virtual tours removed the need for having open houses which suited me just fine. Within a few days, I got an offer very close to list price from a high quality buyer. Kathy is truly a trustworthy and professional agent who pays attention to the smallest of details throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend her highly enough! She will definitely make you "smile"!

We had a short window to relocate our family to Southern California. Despite dwindling options for us in the area we wished to live as well as our time pressure, Kathy Smiley’s unmatched professionalism, tenacity and proactive approach to finding us our home never wavered. Kathy made herself available nearly 24/7, happily accommodating our often last minute trips into town to look at homes. She searched different areas of town in depth to find the right fit for us, all the while mindful of our son’s school location and travel times around town to get him to his activities. With the clock ticking toward the start of school and having exhausted all active listings, Kathy unearthed a beautiful, off-market home perfect for our needs in Lake Sherwood, successfully negotiating with the sellers to allow for the sale of our home, managing all the inspections and reports since we were away, and keeping in daily communication. She stayed on top of escrow throughout the entire process. Kathy’s resourcefulness, patience, and attention to detail were outstanding and a significant reason for such a successful transaction for everyone involved. Kathy is by far one of the most outstanding, hardworking real estate professionals we have encountered and we would not hesitate to hire her again or refer her to a friend.

WOW!!! There are not enough wonderful things to say about Kathy and the service she provided to us. From the first phone call she was friendly, engaging, and showed her desire to meet us and really understand what we needed for our family. She always had time for us and her follow-up was amazing. She was able to find a hidden gem in a fast-moving market; Positioned our offer strategically to be accepted among multiple offers; Researched the property to make sure we were aware of the condition and price tag of upcoming work all while working closely with our lender to ensure a smooth transaction. Having been through this process unsuccessfully before we know just how blessed we were to have found her and had her on our side EVERY step of the way. Her wide net of professionals she knows in the field made a HUGE difference and allowed us to close ON TIME and obtain our home. We are BEYOND thankful and appreciative of all that she has done for us. What a gem Kathy Smiley is!!!

Kathy was just awesome to work with. She knows the area EXTREMELY well & always had a very positive attitude. She always took a lot of time to truly understand what we were looking for & in the end we found the perfect house. I highly recommend Kathy!!
