What clients say about this agent....
Diane helped us buy two houses and sell one. She is a fabulous agent. Couldn't possibly ask for any more in an agent. She goes far above and beyond what you would expect any agent to do. Knowledgeable, thorough, great follow through and fun to be with. We have worked with many agents and Diane is the best we have worked with. Could not recommend any agent more highly.
We had been casually looking at larger homes and one day last summer, while riding my bike through the neighborhood, I spoted the perfect model and location that met our every need. I called Diane Shafer that evening and the next morning we toured the home with her and made an offer. Diane was very honest and knowledgeable about home pricing and helped us decide on both a reasonable offer for the new home and a realistic listing price for our current one.. Our biggest fear was not being able to sell the old home. Not only were home prices down but qualified buyers were few and far between. We did not want to be landlords. Diane's knowledge of the market and extensive advertising methods drew many potential buyers. She knew how important it was for us to sell and she put a tremendous amount of effort into achieving this. She gave us suggestions on how to best stage our property and, after following her advice, our home looked better that ever. She, and her partner Debbie Wertner, held open houses for us every weekend for seven weeks and found us not only a qualified buyer but a cash buyer who wanted to more in immediately. Diane was extremely thorough in the process of purchasing our new home. The home inspection revealed a couple repairs which she arranged to have done. After we moved in, we noticed other minor problems and she quickly had them taken care off at her expense. Diane and Debbie also provide every buyer with a 1 year home warranty. Our home buying and selling was quick, efficient and a very pleasant experience. Diane was always helpful, encouraging, and ever so friendly. Our dog loves her to this day, and so do we.
Our property was mistakenly reviewed as "in a flood zone" Fema had to be contacted and instead of the normal 6 to 9 months to get results Diane persisted politely and achieved a new and correct classification in only three months AND she managed to sell our house while we were waiting for the decree and kept the new buyer happy and in contract! She's the best! A hard worker willing to help with anything, honest and she has a wonderful sense of humor-really needed in this business.
Diane is a wealth of knowledge about not only real estate in the local area but also about who to use for improvements and repairs. She helped us buy a home from the builder's inventory, providing important guidance on location and size.Subsequently, she represented us when we decided to build a new home. She was much more helpful than the builder's design center in determining what options were best for us. She actually took us to every office of the builder's granite supplier in search for the exactly right granite slabs.Diane also represented us when we decided to buy a foreclosure for a rental. Her office is providing management services for that house and the original house which we kept and decided to rent out. They have found great tenants and managed all of the minor and major situations associated with rental properties.We could not possibly recommend her more highly.
