Given Kathy's presence in the neighborhood we were selling in, we didn't consider anyone else. The experience of selling had changed A LOT since we last went through it, particularly the emphasis on staging. We took some convincing but it made a huge difference and Kathy helped make it as painless as possible. In the end the result was more than we hoped for.
While we were preparing our home for sale in February 2020, the pandemic restrictions were enacted and created daily uncertainty for the RE market and sales process. Kathy stayed on top of the changes and successfully marketed and sold our home with a minimum of disruption. Although the restrictions have stabilized, Kathy's knowledge and expertise will serve her clients whether they are the buyer or seller of a property.
We had the pleasure of working with Kathy during the sale of our home of 36 years. She possesses a wealth of knowledge about our neighborhood, thoroughly assisted us from the beginning to the end of the home selling process, suggested specific (and practical) improvements to enhance our home's marketability. She constantly updated us with the fast changing of the local housing market. Kathy's knowledge, thoroughness, patience, and professionalism is unmatched. It truly was a great pleasure to work with her.
It was a pleasure working with Kathy Vendel. We were new to the area and needed a real estate agent who knew the Walnut Creek market. Specifically Northgate, Rancho Paraiso and Woodlands. Our goal was to live within 10 minutes of our son and family. After interviewing several realtors we decided Kathy was clearly our first choice. Kathy did not disappoint. Kathy was extremely responsive to all our questions. We were amazed at how efficiently she handled multiple clients at the same time. We would not hesitate to recommend Kathy Vendel for your real estate needs. Charlie and Pat Eshleman
I have worked with Kathy on the sale of 2 houses in Walnut Creek. Words that come to mind are full-service, professional, knowledgeable, experienced, and practical. I was 1000 miles away for my most recent home sale, and Kathy handled everything. She managed contractors for repairs and inspections, she made recommendations for value added improvements, and she is in constant communication on all important items. Kathy is a pleasure to work with and I recommend her highly!
Kathy is a total professional and a super hard working ally when it comes to selling your home. She is a pleasure to work with and sold our house for $200k over asking. I would highly recommend working with Kathy Vendel!
Kathy helped us on the sale of our home that we had lived in for over 20 years. We wanted to downsize to a smaller home in the same area. She helped us through a several month process of setting up the process, preparing our home for sale, and actively marketing it. She used her intelligence and experience is our direct market to guide on the expected sales price. She brought us the buyers through her connections with other agents not only in our area but across the Bay Area. Kathy helped us evaluate the multiple offers we got, did the negotiations on certain items with ease, and helped us finalize a contract. Her business skills on this task were exceptional. She kept us informed throughout the escrow period, helping resolve issues and at the end helped us realize a very strong sales price above our expectations. We picked Kathy for her reputation in delivering outstanding results in our neighborhood and she performed just as advertised. A professional in every way. She recognized how much emotion and stress there was for us in letting go of our house, and let us do it our way!
Kathy helped sold my home in Walnut Creek during the beginning of the 2020 lockdown while I was living as an expat in South Korea. Kathy was professional, and went out of her way to guide me through the complicated process of selling the home with the dynamic lockdown rules changing often, and also helped me to manage some necessary upgrades to get the best price for my home. Kathy recommended colours for paint and staged the home to make it show well and really stand out. I am so grateful for her help and guidance throughout the process and am impressed with the way she managed the difficult situation in a calm and professional way, despite the unbelievable circumstances. I would recommend her service as a buyer or a seller, as she also helped us purchase the same home 6 years earlier.
In our home selling and buying journey we have experienced many real estate sales representatives with good and bad experiences. With Kathy there is NO good or bad just “Great”. Her communication was amazing on all aspects of the process. Her knowledge and due diligence ensures both the seller and buyer are happy. It is no wonder she has so many repeat clients. We would use and highly recommend Kathy and her team to any seller or buyer.
Kathy and her team were very knowledgable, professional and supportive as they guided us through the steps to sell our home. We had an excellent non-contingent offer the very day our house went on the market, and the entire process was smooth, well-planned and expertly carried out . Kathy is a long-term Northgate resident and knows the neighbourhood inside out. She was available to us at all times , and her expertise, professionalism and caring made this sale stress-free, quick and smooth.
Our experience with Kathy and the sale of our home was seamless. The strategy we discussed due to the current Pandemic and shelter in place rules worked out perfectly. Kathy was responsive and professional at every step in the process. Highly recommend Kathy Vendel.
Kathy is an expert real estate agent who goes above and beyond to help her clients. She helped us sell our house, the week when Coronavirus shelter-in-place was announced. She suggested a quick off-market showing and we found the right buyers within 3-4 days. The closing process was smooth and Kathy kept us informed through all the stages.
