Review for Member: Petra Thomas
ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I recently purchased a home, and Petra Thomas was our agent. After many months of searching, going back and forth with sellers - we knew Petra was the right person for the job! Not to mention, we gained a friend in the business for life! She was amazing from beginning to end (we must remember Sidney Thomas - she came through many times in a matter of minutes). We have worked with many agents; however, Petra will walk you through the entire process and be right there with any questions or concerns. She is okay with speaking up when it differs from what her buyers want or if we request something and no results are showing. Buying a home is a very unsettling time; however, we were able to put our stress monitor down and let Petra be a beacon of light in those troubling times. We recommend that she handle the sale of your property, the purchase of your next property, or a combination of them. Petra will thoroughly explain how it works and what needs to be done. Take the time to allow her to do what she does best; we promise you won't be disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIED Excellent realtor. Kept us informed of all the steps which helped since we were first time home buyers. The extra steps Petra took not only ensure that we understood what went on but helping with contractors, setting up the necessary survey, inspections etc. I would highly recommend her and will use her again if the opportunity arises.

ZillowVERIFIED This is my second home sold and purchased with Petra. Her expertise in all things real estate and beyond, makes the process seamless. My home on Snowcrest Lane in Raleigh, NC was sold in hours. Petra?s industry and marketplace knowledge, had the house priced appropriately for sale. If that wasn?t enough, she helped me find my perfect new home.

ZillowVERIFIED I took time to provide a long, detailed write up so that anyone reading could see some of the ways Petra gives her all in helping her home sellers/buyers. For those preferring a shorter version, Petra is superb in her knowledge, expertise, responsiveness and has fantastic connections for referral needs. Here is the full story of my experience partnering with her earlier this year. I invited Petra over in January to talk about what suggestions she had for me to get my two-story town-home ready for sale in the next two years. She did a walk-through and we sat down to discuss pros and cons of selling as-is or making a few changes before listing. I was not expecting her to say that with a fresh coat of paint and some updated flooring my home could probably sell in a week for much more than I expected. Suddenly what I thought was a two year plan could actually happen much sooner. I decided to go for it then instead of waiting. Petra had great referral resources that did excellent work. By the time the paint and flooring completed I almost could have been persuaded to stay, but not quite. My mind was made up for a ranch-style home with a large backyard for my big dogs to enjoy. While my house was getting ready to list I began my search for my next home. Petra connected me to a trusted lender and closing attorney she works closely with, I was prepared and just needed to find a place to buy and close on concurrently with when my town-home. Petra was so patient and encouraging when we would view great houses that had lots of attributes, but that I rejected as not perfect for me. She showed me a lot of homes and helped me place offers. The first couple didn?t work out as the contingency factor wasn?t appealing to sellers compared to other offers that were not contingent on selling a home first. I was getting a little discouraged but Petra encouraged me that it would all come together and reminded me I had a plan in place even if it took more time to buy than the closing of my town-home would take. No need to settle for something that wasn?t what I truly wanted. My townhouse listed on a Thursday in March but I didn?t permit showings until my Open-House, the following Sunday. Petra was out of the country so she arranged someone else to show the house so there was no delay once I was ready. My home sold in one day! That day a new listing appeared that I just had to see. Petra arranged someone to show the house to me the first evening of listing, ahead of its Open-House. I loved it and wanted to place an offer right away. From out of the country, Petra worked diligently to get my offer in and communicate back and forth. She was as overjoyed as I was when she called a short time later to tell me the offer was accepted! She worked with me during the due diligence period getting appointments set and giving her thoughts and expertise on things I had questions about. The closings on both homes happened in April on the same day. I had a great experience with Petra as my Realtor, I am thrilled that I chose her. She was flexible and dependable throughout the process. I am so thankful for her. Her guidance paid off for me incredibly, I definitely recommend partnering with on a home buying/selling journey.

ZillowVERIFIED Petra recently helped us sell our home in Knightdale and purchase a new home in Wake Forest. We would highly recommend Petra to anyone who is wanting to work with a very knowledgeable and professional real estate agent. She educated us on the things that have changed since the last time she helped us sell our home 13 years ago. If we need a real estate agent in the future we will turn to Petra because she made the process simple and enjoyable which can be stressful and overwhelming, Thank You Petra

ZillowVERIFIED Petra is great and very professional, knowledgeable, yet down to earth. She was our realtor about 15 years ago when we purchased our first home. We knew once we started the search for our new home she would be our choice for realtor, because of our experience with her in purchasing our first home. We highly recommend her for every aspect of your realty needs.

Review for Member: Petra Thomas
ZillowVERIFIED Petra is awesome! We worked with her in the past when we sold our home and she helped make things go so smooth. Now, 7 years later, we decided to downsize as our children were off to college and creating there own paths. We went back to Petra and she made the process of buying a new home the best we have ever had. Petra is knowledgeable, personable and makes you feel comfortable when talking and working with her on what can be the biggest purchase of your life. Petra was always available and willing to assist in every manner possible. Petra was right there with us during the closing and has followed up to ensure we were doing ok, which is well above most agents. I highly recommend Petra services as you will not be disappointed.

ZillowVERIFIED Petra is an amazing realtor!!!! We just went through the process to buy our first home so Im sure we were those annoying first time clients with a zillion annoying questions at every corner..... but Petra stayed calm, professional and friendly and always responding quickly and with easy to understand answers. She was extremely flexible around my hectic work schedule and set us up for viewings very quickly so we wouldnt miss out. We only saw 4 homes before we found ours and Petra ensured we put in a good offer in this compatible market. She guided us through the process and stayed available to our needs until we closed. Even after we closed she stayed in touch and ensured everything was going well!!! She went above and beyond and even used money from her closing check to fix our AC unit that wasnt working when we moved in. You cant get better than that!!!! If you are in the market for a realtor in the triangle area you NEED to give Petra a call! She is kind, efficient, flexible, caring and overall a great friend and business woman. She WILL find you the house youll love or help get you an amazing price should you be in the market to sell.

ZillowVERIFIED Petra Thomas is an awesome real estate agent!! She helped me sell my townhouse in Morrisville and find a new house in Raleigh. While the sale of my townhouse was easy, the buying of the new house turned into a nightmare, but through the entire she kept her cool, very professional and did so much work beyond of what is to be expected. While I fell apart in the process a couple of times, she was diligent and we finally got it all done and the purchase happened, even though it was delayed, only to have an immediate leak caused by the overflow pipe of the bathroom not being connected properly and she even helped me with all that drama, so her follow up and help after the purchase of the home was very much appreciated and couldnt have done it without her! And a couple of years later, I consider her to be a great friend and always recommend her to all of my contacts. You will not be disappointed!! Give her a call!! (and if you happen to speak German, she is even bi-lingual and from my home country!! BONUS!! and she speaks Spanish too!)...you cannot go wrong by choosing Petra Thomas!

ZillowVERIFIED Petra has become my go-to realtor for one main reason; she is the ultimate Go-Getter! Ive worked with several other realtors in the past, but Petra goes over and beyond to make sure you get the best deal possible. She does whatever it takes for her clients before and after the sale. She is especially good at dealing the Investment property. If you are looking for a solid realtor that wont let you down, Petra Thomas is the one for you.

Review for Member: Petra Thomas
ZillowVERIFIED We bought our house less than a year ago and then found out my husband was being transferred. I interviewed another realtor before Petra, who suggested that we list for less than what we paid. We have worked really hard on our house so the news was less than desirable. As soon as I met Petra, I realized that this other realtor was only interested in her quick sale and not our situation. Petra is an expert in the area suggested we list for $14,000 over what we paid. Not only was that music to our ears, but I immediately trusted Petra. I knew that she cared the first time I met her. She immediately set up an open house and we got great traffic. We had a ton of showings after the open house. Two weeks after we listed, we got a full price offer! Petra is there for you 24/7. She will always respond at any time of the day and keep you fully informed during the entire process. We didnt use the realtor who helped us buy our house because I couldnt get a response once the deal was done. Petra still cares and isnt just about the check. I highly recommend her if you are selling or buying! She knows the area, shes is great with people and she will always make you feel like you are the top priority.

ZillowVERIFIED Petra went above and beyond our expectations for a real estate agent. She was there 24/7 for us from the listing of our property to a month later when our house sold and even helped us locate a rental property! We recently closed on our new house and I couldn't be happier with everything she has done for us. She works tirelessly for her clients and will provide excellent and dependable service; you will not be disappointed!

ZillowVERIFIED Petra is very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. She reponded to ANY question or request within 24 hours or less. We have 4 kids and she was willing to view homes with or without them. She always remained in contact with us and worked around our schedule. We bought 2 years ago in Raleigh after renting in Raleigh for 2 years. The whole family loves our home and neighborhood. The entire purchasing process was a pleasure.

ZillowVERIFIED This agent worked quickly. I described the house and specifics I was looking for and she had only this type of house available for me to look at within 24 hours. She was very flexible with her time and worked on behalf of me.

Review for Member: Petra Thomas
ZillowVERIFIED I would just like to take a moment to say that Petra Thomas is an AWESOME Real Estate Broker, she is very honest, patient, compassionate and dedicated to the needs of the buyer/seller. I met Petra in 2005 per my searching for a home to purchase. I will just say that Petra was very patient with me still, after looking at 20 prospects within a short period of time; none of which I liked. The 21st model visited was very nice and when I walked in, I knew it was THE HOUSE for my family. HOWEVER, I disliked the location. In a couple of hours, Petra was able to find another location of town on which the model was being built. We met in at the newly constructed "Braefield" subdivision, the exterior of the two existing desired models were not of my liking. We continued to drive through the sub and there was an end lot for sale on which I had to have. Petra called the builder back to find out if the lot would accommodate my chosen model. It all worked out perfectly & I ended up building my new home customed to my likings!!! Last year, I reached out to Petra again to place my home on the market, which was a very difficult decision for me. Petra was very gentle with me throughout the emotional process on which I sometimes called her in tears! Petra sold my home in March of 2011 & I highly recommend her expertise and professionalism to everyone interested in purchasing & or selling a home.

Review for Member: Petra Thomas
ZillowVERIFIED Our experience with Petra was a good relationship overall. She was both the buying agent for us as well as the selling agent for the homeowners, who were our neighbors. She was a very nice, honest person. She was knowledgable about the process of buying a house, which as first time homebuyers knowing absolutely nothing about buying a house, was very helpful. She guided us step by step through the process and gave us honest advice when we had questions. We only had one hiccup in our home buying process which involved the selling price of the house. The selling price was based on the total square footage as liveable space. Because of a new law, the upstairs did not meet requirements for liveable space and therefore the selling price was set too high. This was more of a problem for the homeowners than for us, but it delayed the closing process until the problem was resolved. It also involved unexpected expenses for both us and the homeowners, which Petra stepped in to help cover out of her commission. We thought that was a very admirable thing for her to do and made us feel good about doing business with her. As new homebuyers, we often had questions. Petra was very quick to respond to our emails and calls. Even if she didn't immediately know the answer, she still responded to let us know that she was looking into it. She would keep us updated on how work was progressing on the house and how the closing process was progressing. I found this to be an excellent trait in an agent knowing nothing about buying a house and being excited first time homebuyers. We would recommend Petra Thomas as a good real estate agent for the Raleigh/Knightdale area. Overall, we had a good experience, even with a few hiccups, everything turned out well for us and we bought the home we had loved since we moved into the neighborhood.
