Kay was an excellent realtor for my family. We used her services to sell our old house and purchase a new one. She made the whole process much easier than expected, and I highly recommend her!

Kay is absolutely the best! She has helped us buy and sell several properties. She has always been incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and worked very hard to protect our interests. We recommend her to friends and family and will NOT use any other realtor.

Kay was the perfect partner to help us sell a property. Quick responses to both my questions and any unforeseen troubles during escrow. A true delight!

Working with Kay to sell my home was a wonderful experience. Kay was with me each step of the way, ensuring that I understood the process, as well as all the various documentations that are involved. It is a huge relief to me that Kay represented me as the seller, as I was able to lean on her expertise to make key decisions during a very quick, 21-day process from time of sale to escrow closing! What sets Kay apart is her kindness and compassion, her ability to keep calm through the difficult times, and her genuine sincerity. Not only has Kay grown in her career since I met her in 2019, but she also mentors newer realtors, which a huge service to our community. Kay is an amazing person. I wouldn't want to sell or buy a home in San Diego without Kay. Kay's sign says it all: Keep Calm and Call Kay! And I'll add to that: Kay makes things good things happen!
