ZillowVERIFIEDI originally had my parents house for sale with another realtor for 8 months. We didnt get any offers. I took the home off the market and re listed it with Chrissy. She did a fantastic job. Chrissy listed the house on a Wednesday she had an open house that same weekend and we had a contract the following Monday. Chrissy kept me informed throughout the whole process, she frequently checked on the house since it was vacant and she did a great job negotiating the contract. Thank you again Chrissy for all of your hard work and dedication selling my parents home.

ZillowVERIFIED Weve worked with Kate multiple times now, and I can honestly say we wouldnt choose anyone else. She is truly the best in the business, top of the line in every way. From start to finish, she made the entire process of selling our home smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable. What sets her apart is how personable and down-to-earth she is. She genuinely cares about her clients and it shows in every interaction. She communicates clearly, advocates fiercely, and has an incredible knowledge of the market. We trusted her completely and she delivered once again, above and beyond. If youre looking for someone whos not only an expert but also treats you like family, Kate is the one you want by your side.

ZillowVERIFIED Kate was great to work with!! She was very professional and knowledgeable. She was willing to drive a couple of hours away to show us homes and was very accommodating with our schedules. She was not pushy. It felt like she had our best interest at heart and just wanted us to be happy with our purchase. We didn't take her up on her offer, but she was even willing to give up part of her commission so that we could get closer to a price we could all agree on. Even the seller told us that we had a great realtor because of how she negotiated for us!

ZillowVERIFIED We met Kate 3 years ago when we first thought about buying in Jacksonville. It took a long time for us to decide, but we just closed the deal on a wonderful new home in St. Augustine. She was patient as we took her on an unpredictable journey of starts and stops. In the end, just when we thought we had a house picked out, she suggested we look at one additional home that we had not seen, because she thought it met all the criteria we had been asking for. When we saw it, we instantly fell in love with that house! It was perfect for us! Kate was a gem of an agent! She was able to answer all our endless questions, was gracious and patient with us, and went above and beyond what most agents would do. My wife and I highly recommend Kate!

ZillowVERIFIED I cant say enough about how awesome Kate is. Planning a move from out of state is no easy task. Kate arranged nearly 30 properties for us to see. Gathered our likes and dislikes and when all was said and done she honed in on one specific property that she was confident we would like!!! And she was right!!! Her knowledge, kindness and resourcefulness is superior to none!!! Love you Kate - you are truly amazing!!!

ZillowVERIFIED We first came to know of Kate Swain when she was selling a neighbors home. Seeing the expediency, efficiency and sale of our neighbors property, when we decided to sell our home , we naturally gravitated to Kate . So aEUR|.we met with Kate and were so impressed with her broad and localized real estate knowledge that we immediately contracted her as our agent. She put together a plan to market and sell our home. Kate provided us with advice and suggestions to increase the salability of home . Very minor changes /enhancements. She provided details and expectations of the listing and the marketing of our home. We went to market shortly thereafter during the pre-holiday rush (2023) with expectations that we really could sell within that period, as she had provided us with strong statical data/sentiment of what could occur during that timeframeaEUR|as she projectedaEUR|.We received multiple bids, with a best and final bidding process, sealing the deal aEUR|we accepted an aEURoeover askingaEUR? price , with a shortened closing date (our wish). Working with Kate was a pleasure aEUR|.her expertise was evident from our initial meeting and has it carried far beyond the closing process, we consider Kate a good friend. We highly recommend Kate Swain and her team for your real estate needs. Her professionalism and results were exceptionalaEUR|.

ZillowVERIFIED We bought our 2nd home with Kate recently . She helped us to get the loan with a good lander immediately. We found the house we like in a few days and Kate helped us to negotiate the with seller and their agent to get best deal. She also gave us the gift basket full of stuff on closing day. She also helped us to get the tenant to rent out the our first house in a few days.

ZillowVERIFIED As a person who is traveling a lot, and having to purchase a home sight unseen, Kate made this process about as smooth as you could ever hope for. She was very detailed, thorough, and honest with her insight. After we closed on our home, she stayed in touch to make sure everything was exactly what we had hoped for, and it was. We can't thank her enough for expertise, but also friendly hospitality!

ZillowVERIFIED Kate was our realtor for our newly constructed home. Since we were new to the area, Kates expertise was invaluable. During the time of construction, we were not living locally, and Kate represented us with the builder on numerous occasions. Kate was available to offer help with necessary information regarding the neighborhood, county and state. She was thorough and efficient. We felt that Kate took an interest in our specific needs while remaining friendly and professional.

ZillowVERIFIED It's a blessing we found Kate!! What a great experience. From start to finish she was knowledgeable, quick to respond, honest, understanding, what an amazing realtor to have on our side! We started off with a family recommended realtor and ended up very wary and unsatisfied with the experience. Zillow search lead us to Kate and we could not have been happier. She heard our wants, needs, target date, price, location, and went straight to work. And this was no easy task due to us being on the opposite side of the country, my work schedule, time zone difference etc. She came through 100% of the time- zooms, text, email, phone calls, walk throughs, meetings, you name it!We absolutely love our new house, our builder, our neighborhood, all such a perfect fit for us!! We highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for a top notch realtor. You will be in the best of the best hands!

ZillowVERIFIED Kate went above and beyond for me and my wife as we were searching for our new home. She is friendly but professional, thoughtful, and well versed in the house buying process. She was quick to respond and took our words and consideration to heart when searching for houses. The housing market in Jacksonville, FL was a little cut throat early 2021, but with her help, we were able to find a house we liked in a neighborhood we liked at the price that we liked. Given the opportunity, we would definitely work with her again, and I would highly recommend Kate for anyone searching for houses in her area.

ZillowVERIFIED I found Kate on zillow. Dont have any clue on who she was at all. I just blindly reached out to her so i can check a house i found on Zillow. The best decision ever! From the very first day, Kate has showed us all but good and incredible knowledge about house buying and selling. She was very patient and always ready to listen to my whining. She didnt care if we drive from one end of the world to the next to see houses. She also helped us sell our previous home. If youre looking to sell your house, get Kate to do it!!!!!!! Shes got an eye of an eagle and will help you stage your house so its perfect for anyone who walks in and check your house. She will make sure that your house is in tip top shape. She wants perfection and its a good thing. She really knows what shes doing. And she will fight for you and protect you from difficult buyers or situation. I would hire Kate in a heartbeat if we decide to do this all over again. Stop waiting and get Kate to work for you in finding your next home or sell your home.

ZillowVERIFIED We were out of state buyers, and made initial contact with Kate via an internet search for an agent in the Amelia Island area. Kate requested a list of our wants and needs, and provided timely updates of listings meeting our criteria. When we arrived to begin our hunt for a home, Kate was prepared with a list of homes and appointments times. Her positive and upbeat personality, local knowledge, and responsiveness helped us identify a home in Fernandina Beach.

At no point did I feel stressed or that she didnt understand what I wanted. This was my second home to purchase and I didnt realize how bad I had been let down in the past so if you can I highly recommend her for your Next PCS or regular move!

Review for Member: Kate Swain
ZillowVERIFIED Kate was extremely thorough, responsive, diligent, patient, and pleasant. She showed us numerous homes and drove us all over the city. She knew the area extremely well and was able to find us home that met all of our requirements. During the offer phase, she knew how to give our offer more punch and get it accepted. For example, she helped us draft a letter to send to the sellers that we later found out clinched the sale. She was available to answer any of our questions day or night and was able to persuade our sellers to push to move our closing date numerous times at our request. She made a very stressful time much more bearable. I highly recommend Kate to anyone interested in selling or buying a home.

ZillowVERIFIED I found Kate via Zillow! We were moving from Nashville in a very very crazy (unrealistic) time crunch. We had to sell our house, we had to enroll our children in school and make it all happen FAST!Being new to the area, she mapped out all the places, we viewed maybe 14-15 homes! She listened to ALL of our needs and helped us find a home that accommodated our family of 5. We didnt just find a HOME, but an AMAZING community/neighborhood!Kate, thank you for making the unrealistic, REAL! We love your home, and will recommend you ALWAYS!
