Even her sign was by far the best. Her assistant was extremely helpful. If you are an older person, I am work with Kendra. If you are a christian ,I am work with Kendra. If you expect diligence,timeliness expertise work with Kendra...

Kendra was on top of her game when it came to selling my house. She explained everything that would take place and she valued my input as well. She would be someone I would recommend to friends and family.

My experience was excellent from the initIal meeting to the closing/ sale of my condo. Demonstrated very professional care and knowledge including me in all aspects of the sale. All members of the team were polite and very responsive to my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Kendra and her team!

ReviewMy husband and I just moved into our new home in Virginia. We have been so happy to start getting settled. When we first got a hold of Kendra Porter, she immediately went out of her way to set up some showings with very little notice. Max, one of Kendra's team, showed us the first house. There were some excellent things about the home, but ultimately we both thought it was not the one. Max was talking about the subdivision he lived in and invited us to his family's home for coffee. This was undoubtedly the first time I had ever heard this from a Realtor. He wanted us to have a chance to see if there was a home in there we might like. When Kendra met with us for the next showing, we immediately liked her. She was friendly and very knowledgeable. One thing I liked about Kendra was that she knew the house's location. She was able to point out the conveniences of living in this area. We could tell she was familiar with all the custom work on the house. I knew I wanted this house even though it was a little more than we wanted to pay. We felt blessed to get this beautiful property, and she was able to negotiate an affordable price for us. I was nervous about so many things, and her other team member, Lexi, who was a very hard worker, would answer my questions and always get back to me in a very short time. Kendra and her team were a fine-oiled machine functioning as one. Pulling off a simultaneous sale on our house and buying here in VA is difficult. Yet we were treated with respect, and all our questions were answered. Kendra, Kati, Max, and Lexi were comprehensive and explained everything to us. My calls were always returned, and the stress was really getting to me, and Kendra was such an understanding and empathetic person. She wanted me to trust that things would go as planned and that she was there to make our buying a house a positive experience, yet she never treated us as if "it was just another sale." The whole team was terrific. I think that the people working with you have much to do with your success. Kendra is a fantastic realtor who is responsive and considerate, does what she says she will do and is very detail oriented. My husband and I would highly recommend her for buying or selling. You won't be sorry you did! We have our dream home and we are so grateful! Thank you to Kendra and her amazing staff for helping a dream become a reality!

Did not have the best experience with Kendra, she is very nice but lacks attention to detail as far as making sure contracts and communication and also addendums are written correctly, in the end my confidence level was low as to how the final sale worked out.

ReviewKendra assisted me in purchasing my vacation home at Smith Mountain Lake, my first home on a lake. She was very patient and also very enthusiastic in helping us to select my home. She was very professional and thorough, I would recommend her to anyone else searching for a home, or for another home in the Roanoke, Bedford, or Smith Mountain Areas.

ReviewMy husband and I got connected with Kendra through Zillow and we were not disappointed! As first time home buyers finding the perfect spot was definitely unchartered territory, especially in this crazy market. Kendra and her assistant, Amber were always available to answer any and all questions we had, and were there for us every step of the way! Kendra gave us great advice on how to offer competitively so that we landed our dream home. We highly recommend her and her team! You wont go wrong.

ReviewKendra helped my husband and I when we helped his grandma move from Virginia Beach to Smith Mountain Lake. She was such a great Real estate Agent she was always available when we needed her. She made the entire process super easy and smooth. She provided all the information we needed to help his grandma and she checks in with us every now and then to see how we are doing. All around great person. Probably one of the the best realtors in Smith Mountain lake. Actually she is probably the best realtor smith mountain lake has to offer.

ReviewKendra Porter, is the sweetest, kindest, caring, & list goes on. She knows things about a realtor that no other has ever mentioned, or done what she did. She listens to her clients & goes for it. What her clients want she goes the extra mile that other realtors doesn't. So if you are looking for a excellent realtor on your side to get the home you always wanted then give Kendra a call. You won't regret it @ all. Trust me. I've had 2 other realtors they can't match Kendra by no means. I hate I didn't find her sooner. But God brought her to me, & I'm very thankful for that I got her.

ReviewWe had a very positive experience with Kendra. With the aggressive housing market at Smith Mountain Lake she worked diligently to find us homes that met our requirements while also impressing upon us how proactive we needed to be to find and secure the right place. We also had some difficult aspects to the process, which were compounded by our aspiration to accelerate the closing so we could get into the home prior to the end of the summer months. She helped us through this challenging process while also helping us through some of the more complicated parts of the purchase. Kendra also understands all of the nuances that come with a lake property, owning a dock, and the administrative aspects and timelines associated with these challenging dimensions of the process. She even conducted the home walk through via FaceTime since we could not be there in person, and also helped execute some complicated paperwork as it related to the dock permits - same day the issue arose - to help get the contract over the finish line. Overall, we were very pleased to work with Kendra. She offered stellar assistance throughout the process and really worked hard to meet all of the complex needs and requirements we defined as we looked for our new home.

We needed her local knowledge in order to be successful in the current difficult market. Kendra made a great team with us and played her role perfectly. Kendra was fun to work with and we couldn't be happier with the deal we did.

ReviewWe recently bought our first house with Kendra. From the start Kendra was very responsive in answering all of our questions and helped us to understand everything involved in the process of buying a house. She also worked expediently to help us get the house. Kendra was friendly, low-key/no pressure and timely. We were fortunate to have Kendra as our realtor.

ReviewKendra was awesome! She made us very comfortable in the sell of our life long home. She made every aspect and all the rules very clear ahead of time. She made sure to advertise our home and set up as many showings as it took to get us every penny we ask for. Her prices are fair, and she is is very honest, and puts the work in so you donot have to. She makes every step clear so you are aware of every process at all times. She makes herself available at all times, and always is available, and willing to help! She delivered everything she promised in a very timely manor! She made this process so easy and stress free! She makes you feel like one of the family!

ReviewI worked with Jim, Kendra's associate, who was outstanding! I originally spoke with him about a piece of property on Smith Mountain Lake that I had seen while we were on vacation. He did some research on it and helped me understand the pros and cons and what the market was like. Given our interest in this specific piece of property, he spend a good bit of time showing us other lots to help us understand how this one compared to the market. He was very patient with us, very helpful with local market knowledge, and enabled us to make an offer with confidence. He helped us obtain our dream lot for a very good price, and has offered support with recommendations of people to help us build on it. We couldn't be happier and would recommend him highly and use him again if there was ever a need. Thank you Jim!

ReviewMy family has been looking for a lake home for several years. We saw one on Zillow to look at. We were a little late on getting that home as it went under contract the same day. Kendra and Jim understood what we were looking for and found us another one. They helped us every step of the way and were very responsive when we had additional questions. Made the process very easy .

ReviewWhat can I tell you about Kendra and her husband Jim? As a first time home buyer, they went above and beyond in helping me with my purchase. From the initial phone contact with Kendra I knew i was in good hands.Looking at homes with her husband Jim was amazing. I couldn't imagine doing it without him. He has a knack for pointing out potential problems and plusses of a home. Don't believe me? His initial assessment of my home was spot on to what the inspector said. He gave me excellent advice and I was comforted to know I had chosen the perfect house for me and my family. My girlfriend had questions and he was always there with the correct answer.Even after the fact, I consider them friends. They keep in touch and I know that they are always a phone call away. If you need a realtor team, look no further.

ReviewKendra, along with her husband Jim, was extremely helpful in finding a property that fit our criteria. They also assisted us during the purchase negotiations to formulate an effective strategy to put the property under contract. During the closing process, they helped us work through some unusual issues with an extremely unreasonable Seller. As a retired real estate professional, I can confidently recommend Kendra & Jim Porter to any buyer who desires professional representation in a Sellers market.

ReviewJim and Kendra were extremely helpful throughout my home buying process. I was not completely in the market to buy a new home, but saw a listing on Zillow that I had to check out. After submitting my request for a viewing Jim contacted within 15min. and we had plan to check out the property. The viewing was very objective and thorough. Went over possible improvements that could come up and any possible issues that could arise in the future. Upon falling in love with the property they had a plan to streamline the process, hooking me up with a lender and getting an offer the next day! I had a lot of work to do on my end with selling my former property and they were extremely patient and helpful with unforeseen delays that came up. I would highly recommend them to anyone for there home buying process.

ReviewKendra handled my inquiry with grace and connected me with Jim Porter in an efficient and timely manner. These two make a great team! Follow-up requests to see other properties were addressed as expected (I have high expectations).I was looking at properties on my parents behalf when I was introduced to Jim and I liked him from the first meeting (we are kindred spirits in more than a few ways). He is a natural at all things real estate; from understanding the needs of his clients and helping clients think through and prioritize the needs to explaining and coaching with regard to contractual issues. He is highly knowledgeable about renovation/repair projects and has first hand experience that he's ready to share and help others avoid mistakes. Jim proved himself a friend by helping me navigate contract resolution issues as well. These are why I recommend him without pause for your real estate endeavors. Thanks Jim!

ReviewExcellent realtor! Weren't expecting such a smooth process... not only from Kendra, but also from others that she recommended we work with. Went in expecting months and months of house searching, fell in love with a house she showed us and got our offered accepted within a few weeks of working with Kendra. Very patient and knowledgeable with houses and knows what's good and bad in a house and recommends how to make it your dream house. Again, we had expected so much time to be spent on our home search and spent literally no time at all. From our approval from someone she works with going smoothly, to her writing up our contract and them accepting our offer. Nothing but good things from kendra and we HIGHLY recommend her as a realtor. She also kept contact daily with us, sent out homes that matched exactly what we wanted and how much we wanted to pay, and was very patient with our pickiness.
