Katrin Tobin is the best! This is the second time we have worked with her and we could not be happier. She took on the sale of our family home with such love and care. She kept us updated on everything, the process was seamless. Katrin spent lots of time at the house, physically adding little touches to make the house ready to show. All the advice she gave us was spot on. She anticipated anything that the buyers might have concerns with and had thorough reports ready for them. She truly knows what she is doing. She took on the sale of our house as if it were her own, she really went over and above our expectations. Thanks to Katrin, we sold the house for so much more than we had expected. Katrin truly is the BEST!

Katrin is so professional and knowledgeable about real estate. She is very Hands-On and definitely goes above and beyond what you would expect from a real estate agent. She's also very personable and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended

Katrin made our buying experience seem fun and easy! She sat down with us understand our requirements and wishlist. She spent some time showing us around potential neighborhoods of interest. She was proactive in getting details about the houses we liked. She did a very nice introduction for us to the seller and was always there with us to help in the negotiation process. Even after we bought the house, she helped us with local contacts and arrangements for repair work. Overall we had a very pleasant experience and I would recommend Katrin to others.

Katrin is without a shadow of a doubt the best real estate agent that I have had the pleasure of working with. Over the last 4 years she has helped me buy two homes and sell one. She not only makes what could be a stressful and difficult process seamless and easy but she also makes it FUN! She brings a tremendously positive energy to her work and her working relationship with you. Erudite, efficient and business savvy, she is a calm and collected negotiator and partner during the selling and buying journey. She is an intent (and patient!) listener and effective sounding board who is always able to provide the right advice at the right time. I trust her 110% and I cannot imagine working with anybody else. Thank you again, Katrin, from the bottom of my heart.

I am delighted to write about the best experience my husband and I had working with Katrin both as buyers and sellers recently in Santa Cruz. Katrin was highly recommended to us when we decided to buy a house and later sell our condominium. We were immediately impressed by her knowledge of the real estate market and how well she understood and responded to our wishes in a new home. She is a person of utmost diligence, courtesy, kindness and respect. We valued her advice when we asked her professional opinion and had ultimate confidence in leading us in the process that is by nature often stressful and emotional. Katrin found us a house of our dream and shortly after sold our condo (we had a full offer a day after it was listed). Thank you Katrin again!

Katrin did a fantastic job selling our home. She worked with us on timing the sale, how best to present the home and the how to work with perspective buyers. We got offers the first weekend we had the house on the market and closed quickly and smoothly. Katrin never left us with questions or concerns, she was on top of the whole process.

With Katrin's help we were able to sell my father's fixer upper home for more than we hoped. She read the market perfectly and set a plan that led exactly to entering escrow and a successful sale just as she envisioned. She found the perfect buyers despite the challenges of the house being occupied by an elderly couple. I recommend her very highly.

We feel very lucky that Katrin Tobin was recommended to us. Katrin was very easy to talk to, she really listened to us and our needs. She explained every step and kept us informed on every matter. She knew the market and we trusted her in every detail of the sale. We never had a worry and the sale was much quicker than we expected. Most importantly, she made us feel like we were her only clients. We highly recommend Katrin Tobin.

Katrin is very helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive, and went above and beyond what I would consider the typical duties of a real estate professional in the process of selling our family home. As I now live out of the area and was often unable to be there in person, Katrin took on much of the project management and coordination that was necessary in preparing the home for sale. From our first meeting to the closing date, she was consistently dedicated to ensuring that we would obtain the best possible result for what was certainly not a simple property. I am grateful to have worked with her.

We worked with Katrin in 2014 to purchase our forever home in Scotts Valley. When we began to search for a bit of land to call our own in 2017, we never considered anyone but Katrin to work alongside us. Once again, she made a complicated process simple and even enjoyable. There is never any pressure or pushiness and her knowledge of the ins and outs of real estate is priceless. Aside from her professionalism, she is just an overall lovely person. If we get another buying itch three years from now, she'll be hearing from us once again!

Katrin recently helped me in the purchase of my new home. A process that she patiently guided me through in the several months that I took to find the right place. Highly recommended!

I have known Katrin for 20 years, but this is the first time I used her as an agent. I had had a few difficult experiences with agents on my last transaction, so I turned to Katrin to be my buyers agent in this very competitive, low inventory, high price market. Katrin (with class, integrity, care, grit, tenacity and saavy) guided us through several multiple offer situations where we needed to be fast shrewd and committed. She got us our dream home and and gently pushed us to pay a bit more than we would have; if we hadn't we would have lost the home. We couldn't be happier and will always recommend Katrin and use nobody else.
