We recently bought our new home with the help of Kathryn, and we couldn't be happier with the experience! From the very first viewing to settlement day and beyond, Kathryn communicated clearly and promptly, answered all our questions with patience, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We truly appreciated her honesty, attention to detail, and warm personality, it felt like we were working with a friend rather than just an agent. We would recommend Kathryn to anyone buying or selling in Hanmer.

Let's not get too excited it's only a section. BUT Kathryn did! Only in Hanmer for the day, we left messages with two companies regarding this section. Kathryn was the only one to come back and we purchased it. Five years on we listed it to sell and despite a trying economy with little or no large sections selling, Kathryn found a buyer. A buyer wanting interesting conditions, and together we worked through them. SOLD . Our sincere thanks to you Kathryn. Feedback and follow up was excellent! Expertise at its finest.

There is a high level of trust I had with Kathryn. She sold the house to me 12 years ago. My experience of her then was that she worked hard for her vendors. She was the same with me as I sold the house so when the time for advice towards a pragmatic approach came I knew I could trust that she was still working in my best interest as a vendor.

I have experienced Kathryn's work from both sides of the market, both buying and selling. I know she works hard for her client and her competency is proven through her experience over the years and her highly professional approach. This includes strong communication, work ethic, honesty and enthusiasm towards both parties in the property deal. It is apparent that she really enjoys her work, ensuring quality service to buyer and seller alike.

We have had the pleasure of both buying and selling our property with Kathryn, and on both occasions she has worked hard to provide a workable solution. Kathryn has great local knowledge of the Hanmer real estate market, and leverages this to identify, engage, and secure buyers. The holiday home market is nuanced, and it is critical that the agent understands how to maximise these benefits for potential buyers. We would certainly recommend Kathryn for selling in the Hanmer village.

Kathryn exceeded our expectations in every respect. From our first meeting we were very comfortable with Kathryn's professionalism. We discussed various concerns (including changing our carpet) as it was important to us that we presented the property to help Kathryn do what she does best. From the first open home to the last, Kathryn's re pore with the prospective purchasers was obvious, her knowledge, communication and professionalism were exceptional, and we believe the word TRUST also is important. We would have no hesitation in recommending Kathryn as the best agent in Hanmer Springs
