Tamara was incredibly helpful throughout the entire selling process. She was very knowledgeable, and patient in helping me understand the confusing details. She communicated things effectively and in a timely manner, and was very professional. I highly recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling a home!
Went way above and beyond expectations! Couldn’t ask for a better realtor. Highly recommended . Honest, friendly and always one step ahead.
Working with Cari has been such a positive experience. Highly recommend-communication ✔️ knowledgeable ✔️ very thorough and precise ✔️ patient✔️ and the best part that sets Cari above and apart from the world of realtors is how thoughtful and compassionate she is. Buying and selling a home is stressful. Working with Cari made everything so much easier and actually enjoyable! If you are reading my review- please know I am not one to take the time to complete reviews, unless it’s for someone who really deserves the recognition. So, Cari- thank you for all you have done for me and for being part of my family’s story!❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tamara came recommended from my son, Tanner. I've never seen a realtor (while showing a home to us) lay down on the floor to check out a crawl space. Another home we looked at seemed perfect, until Tamara noticed a big issue with the foundation (which was not disclosed). Tamara excelled in every avenue while searching for a home! She is very knowledgeable & knows what she's doing!! I truly feel we made a friend 🧡.
Cari was very responsive and provided us with advice along the way. Definitely knows her craft.
We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor to help us through the home-buying process! From start to finish, she was incredibly easy to work with and always made us feel like our best interests were at heart. She kept us well informed every step of the way and was always available to answer our questions. One of the things we appreciated most was her ability to break down the home-buying process and explain everything clearly without ever making us feel overwhelmed. She made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. We are so grateful for all of her help, guidance, and support throughout the process and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!
Greg, learned us and our likes and needs. He would call and say I have a house I would like to show you that would fit your needs. Once we signed he followed that process through and he saved us about 5K in closing out of pocket by choosing a different lender. Greg has been great through the entire process. I would recommend him to anyone.
Greg was so understanding, kind and easy to talk to! Being a first time home buyer, I really appreciated his knowledge and willingness to teach. The process of trying to get everything finalized with our home loan was chaotic and frustrating but Greg was so reassuring, realistic, professional, and genuinely helpful. He made all the stress we went through so much easier to deal with! We truly would not have made it through this process without him!:)
Cari Kost at Go Giver Real Estate has exceeded our expectations and more. From jumping in her car last minute at 8pm to drive 30 minutes away just to show our kids a house before we made a huge decision, to helping us work through the small but seemingly big bumps in the road. Taking phone calls while on vacation and texting us updates even if it’s 10pm because she knew it would help us sleep at night. Making our kids feel welcome even with last minute changes. Praying for us and our situation. Without her none of this would have been possible. If you are looking to buy or sell, call her!! You will not be disappointed.
Cari did an awesome job for us during a recent home purchase. First, we became very interested in a house but only had one day before leaving for a 2 week European vacation, and Cari came through with a showing first thing in the morning. As it turned out, we loved the house, so Cari helped us write a bid on it that very day before we left for Europe! And of course many details and documents required our attention while in Europe, but Cari was with us every step of the way. Even from a very different time zone, she did everything necessary to get us that house as soon as possible. She was always available for any questions or concerns, providing thorough and timely feedback. And, she closely monitored every step of the process to prevent delays. We got our dream house, and we feel we have a lot to thank Cari for!
