Kasteena is a great realtor and very approachable and smart. Her knowledge of the Southhampton/West U area proved to be priceless. Her fantastic negotiation skills helped us get our house among multiple offers. She made our recent home purchase a wonderful experience. She treats you like family and I highly recommend her.
If there were more stars I would give them, Kasteena and her team give great personalized services and go that extra mile -she truly cares. I am looking forward to working with her again on my next venture in the West U area. Thank you so much and keep up the great work.
Kasteena recently sold our home in West U, Houston, Texas. It was truly remarkable how she managed to do this after only one week of it being on the market, after the very first open house, and at list price, all while we were out of the country on a Mediterranean cruise vacation. We were able to return to a home that did not have to remain spruced up for showings. Kasteena made this difficult transition so much easier. From our first meeting to the closing of our house a few weeks later - immediately after which we began our long drive to Northern California A!- Kasteenas thoughtfulness was a constant. She even packed us a large bag of snacks for our drive. Kasteena was the third realtor we met. The first two had many more years of experience and one of them listed far more homes in West U. We were, however, struck by Kasteenas authenticity, demeanor and cultural finesse. We quickly noticed her keen attention to detail in every aspect of the property aEUR" the interior and exterior of the house, the yard and even the garage apartment; nothing escaped her scrutiny. Her sense of ownership, professionalism and non-pushy, considerate demeanor were very much appreciated in addition to her savvy in selecting a stager, her handyman, electrician, plumber, furniture, accessories, wall colors, or recommending a sale price, repairs, selection of buyer, etc. She made sure that the house was 100% ready on day 1. She was a manager who came to us with cost-effective solutions throughout the process, whether it meant her shopping at sales for accessories or using her personal furniture to augment what was provided by the stager. She listened to us, guided us, and was accessible and responsive. Our only regret is that she cannot be here in the Bay area to help us purchase a home. We are happy to recommend Kasteena, a highly competent realtor and a thoughtful and likeable person.
Kasteena helped us buying our new home and she was really fantastic. We've just moved to USA, and the buying/selling process was completely new for us and completely different from how is performed at our home country, Argentina. From the very beginning she really understood our needs, she was incredibly helpful and encouraging, she explained thoroughly every step of the process, listened carefully, and calmly helped us sort thru our thinking whenever we were discouraged or feeling nervous. She was always easy to get in contact with both via phone and email, and adjusted to us in order to accomodate to my husband's busy agenda. She did a great research work for us, identifying alternatives as soon as they come out in the market. She was so helpful and caring with all of us, including our three teenage daughters that accompanied us during the visits. She has an incredible knowledge of the market, and West University in particular. Her negotiation skills were critical when closing, and she was always alert to be sure that everything was complete and clear to all parts involved. She really helped us identifying possible risks, and was always ready to share her know how when asked for. All in all, it was a great experience, and we recommend her highly! Her strong knowledge of the local market and sense of timing and opportunity definitely made a difference for us.
My company moved my family & me to Houston last September. First 3 months I was alone here and started to look for houses into West University & Bellaire, without appointment, during Open Houses. I met Kasteena Parikh during one of those visits them, and regardless we already had contact realtors through friends, I was able to convince my wife to give her a chance. It resulted into one of the best decisions we did throughout this stressful process. She was always kind and responsive, regardless her more than filled agenda. She guided a lot our decisions in the smartest way, without forcing, and she managed perfectly the frustration when our decisions differed from her advice. When negotiations started, she open her toolbox and found for us a great deal, fair for both sides and good enough to let us very comfortable. I learn that a softer, subtle, smarter approach is possible in this kind of negotiations, and could bring to better results. In addition, she found for us a bank to obtain the loan (difficult here when you come from abroad without US credit history). We ended up seeing her as our advisor, our counselor and our friend, and not as a aEURoemiddlemanaEUR?. From our experience, I doubt there`s a better choice if you`re looking for a house at West University/ Rice/ Bellaire area.
