ZillowVERIFIEDWe are so happy we decided to work with Bette! As a first time home buyer, we couldn't imagine working with anyone else. She was incredibly patient with all of our questions, and her explanation of each step of the process was easy to understand. She has been doing this for a long time and also gives great recommendations for everything from contractors to restaurants! If you are looking for a home in the Catskill region, DEF call Bette.

ZillowVERIFIED It is with great pleasure that I write this review of Bette Watts. We worked together for about five months. I was an inexperienced first time buyer. We saw several properties together and I was pleased that She pointed out flaws I would have missed. She dissuaded me on many occasions from making a mistake. Gradually getting to know what I was looking for so when something excellent came on the market she steered me towards it. But heres the best part. Once I owned it, she did not disappear, I call her to get recommendations for repair from this unusually severe winter. I had phone numbers of trustworthy local workers who have done fine work for fair prices. I wholeheartedly recommend Bette, if you are looking for a realtor in the area. Call her now!

ZillowVERIFIED Bette is by far the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. I had to sell my mother's property in Tannersville while living in another state. I never could have done it without her! She was not only on top of all the steps needed to complete the sale, she also went out of her way to get the house ready to sell. She located contractors to work on the house and made sure the work was completed to satisfaction. Believe me, you can't go wrong by choosing Bette for your real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette was incredible from the beginning of the listing right through to the sale, which thanks to her, went quickly and at the best price. Bette gave me great ideas to fix up the house to make it more presentable for buyers, things I would not have thought of on my own, and thankfully I took her advice and all went great. I highly recommend Bette as a sales agent! She constantly stayed in touch throughout the whole process and made the listing and sale of the house a pain free experience.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette is such an excellent realtor! She went above and beyond for my husband and me during our first home purchase. We didn't know anything about the process and she answered all our (numerous) questions thoroughly and provided even more information and detail than we expected. We truly appreciated her dedication and local expertise.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette was everything we needed and more during our first time home buying journey. She was knowledgeable, patient, and so supportive though-out the entire process even when things got a little stressful. We always felt like she had our best interest at heart and truly cared about helping us find the right home. She answered every question with care and kindness. Were now settling into our first home and couldnt be more grateful. If youre looking for someone you can trust who really knows what theyre doing, Bette is the one.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette helped us find a great house in Kingston. She was wonderful to work with and came highly recommended from friends who worked with her in the last year. She worked hard to answer our questions and help us navigate some tricky issues during a challenging close. She even gave us some great advice when it came to the construction and quality of each home we visited. We loved working with Bette!

ZillowVERIFIED Bette is AMAZING! She had helped my husband and I buy a house two years prior. She made the process so easy and fun, especially as first time buyers, we knew who to call when we decided to move again, due to work changes. Again we were not disappointed, she knows the market and truly what the house is worth, shes honest and works so hard for you and kept the whole process on track even in this crazy world!

Review for Member: Bette Watts
ZillowVERIFIED Amazing in all respects. Very knowledgeable about the local market with deep connections across the industry to help get the deal done. Responded rapidly to all our requests and questions and her persistence likely saved us weeks around closing by staying on top of the sellers side and utilizing her connections with the other broker, title company, and lawyers. Would, and already have recommended her to others looking for homes in the Hudson Valley.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette helped us navigate our first time home buying experience, and I'm so glad we had her expertise to rely on! She was so responsive every step of the way, answered any questions that we had, and helped advocate for anything we needed during the negotiation process. She did in depth research of the property so that we had all of the information we needed going into the purchase. Thank you Bette!

Review for Member: Bette Watts
ZillowVERIFIED If you need a hard-working, responsive, friendly, loyal, and detail-oriented real estate agent to help you find and purchase a home, look no further. I could not imagine having a better agent than Bette. Right from the start, Bette made sure we were fully informed about the home purchasing process, and made it simple for us to understand. She also was present at all showings to the extent possible, even during a pandemic. She also will remind you of all tasks that need to be completed, and stays on top of all other parties (attorneys, other agents, lender, etc.) so that you can close as soon as possible. My wife and I will be forever grateful for Bette's hard work!

ZillowVERIFIED Bette was unresponsive to texts and phone calls, discourteous, and generally unhelpful. She told me one thing regarding the process that was not true. Very poor customer service. Seemed uninterested and unmotivated to work with me.

Review for Member: Bette Watts
ZillowVERIFIED Thank goodness for Bette! As first time home buyers we had a steep learning curve and she helped make the whole process easier than expected. She was organized, transparent, patient, prompt, knowledgeable, and just so nice. It took us some time to define what we wanted and we opted to explore different parts of Greene County, different types of properties, and different price points. We never felt pressure...."we'll look at some more places...you'll know it when you see it," Bette would say. Our children, who were in tow at all our viewings, really took to her and Bette was so sweet with them, even engaging them in play so we could get a more focused look at properties. And her help didn't end when we had our accepted offer. Even after our close she was helping us remedy some outstanding issues. As a lifelong resident of Greene County with prior experience in construction Bette's connections to various contractors have been a valuable resource. We're looking forward to having her over once we're settled in our new home.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette Watts is an amazingly dedicated real estate agent, the best we've ever encountered. We spent a solid year searching for a house and then we found Bette. She found us a great house in just a few months. And she travelled, at our request, to nearby counties to help us check out houses in other areas. She helped us find painters and others to make some improvements. She's smart, good with paperwork and very professional and really went the extra mile to make sure we were satisfied. Very impressed with Bette!

ZillowVERIFIED From the very beginning of the process Bette was godsend. You was professional and full of local knowledge beyond reproach. Her extensive knowledge of the home buying process was invaluable. If you are looking for a property in the area she should definitely be your first choice. If you pass her up you are doing yourself a disservice. Thank you, Bette for all your hard work, we appreciate you! Bill and Courtney...

ZillowVERIFIED Bette was great to work with! She found us a home that we wouldn't have considered otherwise, and helped things stay on track so that we could coordinate two closings in one day. She is very responsive to emails, calls and texts and knows Catskill and the surrounding areas very well. I definitely recommend working with her!

Review for Member: Bette Watts
ZillowVERIFIED Bette was amazing! I knew from the first house that she showed me that she was the realtor I wanted. She continued that day to show me multiple different houses, including show that were not even listed online yet that she knew about! Her knowledge of homes and potential pitfalls of what you can be buying is so extensive. And anytime I needed something she always had a response to a text or call within 10 minutes, if not within the hour. She was a pleasure to deal with and I intend on using her for future realty expenditures.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette had buyers in mind for our home from the moment we listed it. She listened to our wishes and worked very hard to find the right buyer. We liked the fact that she was in constant communication with us and was very professional and reassuring throughout the entire experience. Because of her ability our home was listed and sold in 2 months. If you want someone who'll work hard for you, you should call Bette Watts.

ZillowVERIFIED Bette is a true professional. I had a great experience working with Bette. I couldnt believe how responsive she was to all of our requests and questions, and she knew far more than we ever hoped to about the process of buying a home. She knew the area very well, I would recommend to anyone looking for some peace of mind when buying a home!

ZillowVERIFIED Bette is a great realtor. She is very responsive and knowledgeable about the Green county. If not for Bette's expertise, quick action, and excellent communication, I would not have sold my Homes.

ZillowVERIFIED Through Bette we purchased a house in the Catskill area. Besides being a very nice, warm and likeable person, Bette is very professional en went beyond her way to help us. After a sort briefing she perfectly understood what we were looking for and presented us a variety of options in the area. I can't recommend her enough!

Review for Member: Bette Watts
ZillowVERIFIED Let me be very straight to the point; Bette redefined customer service for us! We had viewed some places with a different realtor couple months prior, when we found this specific house we thought was really beautiful. The house is located in Catskill NY. We called Bette on a Saturday morning (already on are way from NYC) and she organized a viewing right away for the same day. After having viewed the house she showed us specs and pictures of 3 other properties she felt could work for us too. We drove by one and scheduled a viewing to another property the next morning. It was absolutely a contender, but we immediately fell in love with the first house we saw. Bette arranged another viewing that same day. We thought about it overnight and put in an offer on Monday afternoon. Bette guided us through the process of negotiating a price and 2 days later we had an accepted offer. She organized a very knowledgeable and experienced inspector for us (it is a 19th century home), who took 3 (!) hours explaining everything that caught his attention. There was a foundation issue. Bette went out of her way to find a mason (she called 10 local companies!) to come and do an estimate ASAP. She Face-timed me in when the estimator was on-site, so I didn't have to drive all the way up again. She helped us renegotiate the selling price with the seller and connected us to a great local bank and attorney. She made it such a smooth process for us. Even if Bette has been in real estate for a number of years, she told us that only just very recently she became a real estate agent. She is not only a professional, but is also a passionate person that truly cares and she goes out of her way to assist her client. She was always available if we had questions or needed help. There is no doubt in my mind that I would use her again would I be buying another home. But I don't think that will happen anytime soon, as we found our dream home! I guess it is clear; we highly recommend Bette. As a matter of fact friends of ours have already started a search with her.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband Tom and I were very pleased with Bette. Perhaps, what we appreciated the most, was her responsiveness and enthusiasm. Although this was Bette's first selling home as an agent, she exhibited impressive professionalism and knowledge. We had dealt with other agents during the time we were home searching and none of the compared. Rip Van Winkle Realty has a gem of an agent. Thank you Bette.
