I have dealt with hundreds of Realtors in my 30 plus years as chief legal counsel for a title company here in Northeast Ohio. I have had a lot of experience dealing with the complexities of real estate transactions, and many times, the realtors fall short of my expectations. In this particular transaction, I represented the seller as his fiduciary, and this seller chose Lori Raath as the agent. Initially I was prepared for the usual turbulence. Then I was treated with a pleasant surprise. Lori Raath was head and shoulders above all the other realtors with whom I have worked in the past. She was patient with the out of state seller, and helped arrange the relocation of personal property into storage. Lori gave us timely updates and clear explanations of each step. Her direct approach and market analysis helped us evaluate offers and chose the right buyer. I had confidence that our interests were not only being guarded but professionally advocated. Lori’s professional contacts helped solve problems which required immediate action to preserve the sale. Lori combined a very personable and sincere approach that helped the seller navigate stressful times. Lori Raath is a credit to her profession and I highly recommend her if you are buying or selling homes in Florida.

We had 13 showings on the house in almost one year but no offers were made. The house was clean and in good shape. Finally Lori had a showing and received an offer well below the listing price. Aggravated, frustrated and depressed we decided to accept the offer. We lost big but are pleased to have it sold. Lori tried hard for us and we appreciate her hard work and determination.

Lori Raath sold me the condo in 2018 and the experience was wonderful! Her patience as I made decisions, her ability to be available and communicate with me and for me was outstanding. Seven years later as I relocated, I called Lori to help. Again she worked with me and was always available to help. She went above and beyond to ensure I got the best price with my interests being represented. I 100% recommend Lori Raath to represent you whether you or buying or selling.

I recently had the pleasure of helping a client sell his mhouse in the lovely Lake Ashton community, as he was moving to an Assisted Living Facility. Her insightful recommendations contributed greatly to a smooth and successful sale. Meeting Lori was truly a pleasure—I was immediately impressed by her warm personality and the thoughtful questions hhad. Working alongside such a friendly and professional agent was a truly positive experience for me.

I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Lori. She was very professional, always easy to contact and always responded in a timely manner. She has a winning personality and was a joy to have as an agent.

Lori is professional, knowledgeable and kind. Never pushy, she respectfully guided us through many showings, offers that fell through and ultimately to the home that best suited us. We are grateful she was our realtor.

she informed us what we needed to do all the way to get the property ready for sale could not ask for more she answer every question we had could not ask for a better realtor

Her professionalism was beyond excellent. When there were problems with the house she recommended professional contractors who rectified the problems quickly. The final results exceeded expectations.

she was very knowledgeable and has tremendous experience in real estate and dealing with people. Makes you feel very comfortable in her presence.Very honest with all details

Lori Raath knows how to approach this retirement community's resales. She appreciates the uniqueness of each property, seller and buyer. Her communication skills are excellent and she keeps everyone posted with true up-to-date data and expectations. Her cheerfulness is contagious; she is wonderful to work with.

Lori assisted us with purchasing the home we fell in love with. She has excellent communication skills which is so important during these transactions. She was able to reach out to buyers and get things that were missed on the inspection credited seemingly with ease. The home warranty provided also allowed us to move in with peace of mind. Thank you Lori!

Lori first sold a home to our daughter. That was such a successful transaction that our daughter told us about Lori. Upon calling her, we immediately were struck with her professionalism. She quickly communicated the "lay of the land" and forwarded to us several listings for our consideration. Because ours was a contingent sale and purchase, we had to proceed carefully and patiently. These traits she exhibited to both us and potential sellers. As a result we didn't get ahead of ourselves and into a bind. And patiently we viewed dozens of houses over a four month period. Ultimately we narrowed our search to four homes, any of which could work for us. Then we focused on selling our existing home. While we waited for ours to sell (which took several weeks to complete) two of the four sold. Lori worked with us to offer a contingency plan for one of the two left. That idea was accepted by the seller and eventually turned out to be best for all parties involved. Our home sold and closed on the same day we closed on the contingency home here in Lake Ashton. Lori was there for us like a watchful older sister each step of the way. Her skills resulted in a great savings for our price offered and repairs made before we closed. We could not have been more satisfied with an agent as she also coordinated with our listing agency in Indiana to ensure a seamless sale at both ends. You can't expect more than that... And Lori delivered! She was detail oriented and the best Real Estate agent we have ever had in our many home sales and purchases!
