We had an unusual problem after the buyer’s inspection. It was handled professionally without interruption to the closing time line. We hired Kate to help us sell our property “off market” and she was always involved and helpful.
Kate Fadden did an A+ job helping me purchase my new condo! She was incredibly communicative and knowledgeable throughout the entire process, and I always felt like I knew what was happening and what to expect. What I appreciated most was that even though I wasn’t purchasing a huge, expensive home, Kate never once made me feel like I was anything less than a priority. She was attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping me the whole way through. I’m so excited about my new condo and incredibly grateful to Kate for helping make it happen. I would absolutely recommend her!
We were in a time crunch to sell our home. Ian listened to our needs, was readily available to answer our questions and had a wealth of market knowledge. He did an excellent job marketing which resulted in us selling our home quickly and ultimately above our asking price. Thank you Ian!
Jen is very knowledgable and organized and great to work with. Would absolutely recommend her and work with her again! She has experience as a contractor which gave us confidence in her ability to provide feedback on the property as we were not able to see it in person.
We’ve worked with Sarah on multiple transactions, both as buyers and sellers. She is very well versed in the local real estate marketplace and helped us work through difficult pricing decisions with confidence and knowledge. Would absolutely recommend working with Sarah!
Always available for any issues that popped up, very calming, and supportive.
Justin helped us find and close on a vacant property in February. The process was smooth and professional from start to finish — great communication and genuinely looked out for our interests as builders. We Highly recommend.
Faith is wonderfully detail oriented and driven! She works to make sure everything goes well and is 100% accessible and supportive!
Justin was a fantastic negotiator on my behalf and helped me get exactly the house I wanted at the price I wanted to pay. I felt like he understood what mattered to me and advocated for me every step of the way. His support didn’t end when the sale closed. After I bought my home, he connected me with reliable contractors to help with the initial repairs and redesign work I needed, which made the transition into my new home so much smoother. I can’t overstate how much I appreciate that. I’m now thrilled with my home, and Justin played a huge role in helping make that happen. Even now, I’m still in contact with him. As my needs change, he listens, takes note, and keeps an eye out for what might be helpful for me down the road. Justin is truly a relationship-based Realtor, not just a transaction-based one. He has earned my trust, and I’m grateful to have had him in my corner.

Every verified review on RateMyAgent is linked to a specific property transaction, ensuring that the feedback comes from real buyers and sellers. This also allows you to view key property details - such as location and number of bedrooms - so you can find reviews relevant to your own real estate journey. With our verification process, you can trust that the experiences shared are real, reliable, and helpful.
Integrity is at the core of what we do. We conduct rigorous daily integrity checks on all reviews, using multi-stage verification to analyze submission data and behavioral patterns for potential anomalies. Suspicious reviews may be rejected outright or escalated for further scrutiny by our internal team.
Transparency and fairness are core to how RateMyAgent works. While it’s sometimes assumed that only positive reviews appear on our platform, that’s not the case.
Only clients involved in an actual transaction with an agent can leave a review. This helps ensure authenticity and prevents fake or anonymous feedback. Agent's have no control over what’s written - every review, whether positive or critical, is published and remains visible.
