Valerie was our rock during the home buying process. She held our hand and ensured that we understood every little detail of what was being said to us, when others wouldn't. She is a rockstar realtor and I will recommend her for the rest of my life.
Valeri went above and beyond assisting us in looking for our prospective house. She never got tired of all the questions I had. She is easy to reach and always available; she was with us on every step of finding our dream house. She was more than helpful.
Excellent. Valerie approached me about buying a property I owned for a client, and ended up getting me a sizeable bonus on the property due to some complexities involved. When I got ready to sell another property, I used her for that sale. She provided a very detailed and well researched market analysis for me, that proved to be very accurate. It took longer to sell my property than we anticipated, but at her recommendation, I stayed firm on the price. She showed it to several people, took two or three offers, and finally negotiated a deal with a buyer that resulted in a full price sale. I actually have recommended her to two prospective clients, and would use her again as my representative in purchasing or selling property.
I could not ask for a better agent to help me and my husband to find the perfect home for us. It was a concern being buyers at a distance and Valerie took all the worries out of the picture. Her dedication, and willingness to help in any aspect of the process was wonderful. We could not have been happier. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for homes in the area.
Valerie is exceptional. Extreme on being knowledgeable about the properties we were originally looking at. Honest on which properties would work or not work for us. Always the knowledgeable advocate for us during the real estate process. This was a tricky sales process as we were selling our Anchorage home at the same time of buying our Kenai home. The sell / buy process happened one day apart. Talk about stressful! Issues with our Anchorage close where our local realtor was non responsive. Although Valerie was not directly involved with that sale, she jumped in and handled the issues quickly in order for us to close timely on our Kenai home purchase. We highly recommend Valerie for any Real Estate needs in the State of Alaska. Professional, responsive, knowledgeable, always accessible, and honest. Other Realtors should take note of how Valerie runs her business and earns every penny of her commission.
Valerie was so awesome in helping us to find our new home in Homer. Our family is out of state, and was looking to relocate to Alaska. Valerie was our eyes and ears, as we were not able to fly out there for every house that we were interested in. We put our trust in her to tour the house, Facetime with us at the property, and guide us to the final sale. Her response to our questions was immediate, and kept constant open communication......even when she was on vacation halfway around the world! We absolutely recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a trusted real estate professional.
Valerie and her team were excellent to work with in helping us buy our property. We are out of state buyers and Valerie went above and beyond in helping us learn about Homer, evaluate potential lots and help us buy the perfect property. Valerie is very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend and we will use her again if the need arises.
WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Valerie and her team are impressive. Due to many circumstances I changed dates and contract terms about 10 times or more and the response was always professional and timely. I would recommend her and her team to anyone! They communicated every step of the way and went well above my expectations.
I highly recommend Valerie for your real estate buying and selling needs! I have used her services to sell two houses in the last two years, and to purchase one. She is always available to answer questions and very knowledgeable of the process. The sale of my house became complicated due to an issue with my septic tank. Valerie went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled properly and I appreciate how much hard work she put in to get everything right. Working with Valerie made everything so easy and I would gladly use her services again in the future.
Valerie was great to work with. My husband and I were shopping for a home remotely and she made the process very smooth. After looking at a handful of houses together in person, we trusted her enough to purchase a house without seeing it in person. Valerie walked us through the whole process. She is honest, hard-working and pleasant to work with and we would highly recommend her to anyone.
We worked with Valerie to purchase a house in Homer, AK. We lived a day's drive away from Homer though so we relied on Valerie to be our eyes and ears in Homer. She was extremely knowledgeable about the market and always responsive in communication. Even though we couldn't travel to town to view every new listing, she was always willing to walkthrough properties with us on FaceTime (sometimes multiple times) to ensure we had all the information necessary to make an informed offer. She also helped us craft a winning offer in a very competitive market to get the perfect house. Post-sale she has continued to help us by answering questions and even running errands for us when we're out of town. I would definitely recommend Valerie to anyone interested in purchasing or selling a house in the Homer, AK area.
Valerie was very helpful and knowledgeable. We made several offers on various pieces of real estate and landed a stellar deal on a beautiful place. Highly recommend using Valerie for all your real estate needs.
Valerie and her staff were knowledgeable, responsive, and efficient throughout the entire process of buying our home. She made sure everything went smoothly and we always knew what step of the process we were at. She was also very respectful of our housing preferences by only presenting options that would be viable for our needs.
I chose Valerie to sell my house in Homer and buy a house in Anchorage. Both experiences were very pleasant. She is always quickly to reply and helps with anything and when I say anything she helped me move some furniture to a friends with her truck. She is honest and gets the job done. I couldn't have asked for a better realtor to work with.
As a first time home buyer, I was a bit skeptical with finding a realtor that i could trust. With timely responses, knowledgeable advice, and a positive attitude, Valerie Buss made the process extremely manageable. I recommend her highly and look forward to doing more business with Valerie in the future.
Easiest house sale ever, she took care of everything to make my life as easy of possible, very professional. Valerie got me more than i would have expected, she knows her stuff. Would highly recommend.
I HIGHLY recommend Valerie! She is exceptional. She has a wealth of knowledge and is very professional. She has a passion for what she does and that was expressed in how dedicated she was to have us as her clients. She went above and beyond and kept us in the loop at every step from beginning until closing. This won't be the last time I will be using Valerie for our real estate needs! We have found a gem!
She is hands down the best agent we have ever worked with. Communication was consistent and through. Absolutely recommend her to anyone buying or selling!
Valerie was amazing!!! She went above and beyond what I expected for a real estate agent. She answered so many questions, showed us so many houses, and continued to be a source of support long after the sale. We could not be happier or more grateful!!
We cannot recommend Valerie enough! Even in this wild market, she found us the most incredible home that could possibly fit in our budget. She is extremely responsive and an absolute professional. She has great taste in houses, too! Valerie's excellent communication skills kept the process cruising along and really made purchasing a home in Homer stress free. 10/10 happy to recommend.
I recently moved to Homer from Anchorage and Valerie was able to sell my home in Anchorage no problem for me and is doing a great job looking for homes for me in Homer. She has been really easy to work with and i would suggest her to anybody else!
Valerie is great to work with. Professional, organized, pleasant. She was very quick to respond to us and to inform us of anything going on with the sale of our property. We're SOLD.
We decided to make Alaska home and move to Homer, going through the process of purchasing a house from out of state. We were connected to Valerie through a friend of a friend and she consistently went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Valerie is extremely responsive, knowledgable, and well connected in the industry and community. We always felt Valerie had our best interests at heart while we were looking for houses and especially during the offer and closing periods. Even after the house closed Valerie has been checking in to make sure we have all our questions answered. I'd highly recommend Valerie for anyone looking to buy or sell property in the area!
Valerie was and is awesome (my purchase transaction has closed but she continues to help). My purchase had some challenges; a remote property on acreage, winterized with power shut off, seller in the lower 48, and me in a different remote location and travel restricted by pandemic fears. She represented me well, negotiating a price and conditions that I am very pleased with while keeping the seller happy. She is excellent at communication, keeping me in the loop about all aspects of the purchase and the property while beautifully orchestrating the lender, title, and selling agent so that I did not have to. Summary: Valerie great, I highly recommend her for any real estate transaction you have in Alaska. Stop reading this review and contact Valerie
Valerie Buss and her team at Kachemak Group were very professional and helpful with the process of selling our properties. The whole process of selling went seamlessly and without a hiccup.
I have bought and sold over a dozen homes in my lifetime. I have never had a Realtor like Valerie. She made the process easier and cleaner than I have ever experienced. I highly recommend her and will take advantage of her great service in the future.
I was looking for a home in the Anchorage/Wasilla area and requested info from Valerie on a condo for sale. She responded within a few hours and showed me the condo the next day. She proceeded to show me 8-10 homes over the next week and she did not give up until we found the perfect home for my daughter and I. She made me feel like I was her only client, always responded promptly to my texts and emails, and guided me through the whole process to make sure the house was in good condition and negotiated all repairs. I was even able to do early occupancy, which was a lifesaver since I was staying in a hotel. Our home is adorable and it is perfect for my toddler and my pets. Valerie still helps me locate documents that I need. She is the best realtor in the Anchorage/MatSu area and I highly recommend her!
If you're first time buyer or buying an investment properties. Valerie is the one you want in your side. She was very knowledgeable and she gave 100% of her time. She's the best at what she does hands down!
Valerie handled my first home buying experience. She walked me through every step and made it feel very easy. If. I ever had a question, she would answer quickly and in terms I could understand. I highly recommend Valerie for any real estate needs! I'd certainly call on her again if I ever needed to.
Valerie is such a pleasure to work with. She's very knowledgeable and really goes out of her way to deliver great service! She definitely made the process of home selling much less stressful. Looking forward to working with her again soon.
