Cathy was great to work with. She took the time to show us numerous houses, providing constructive input and guidance on all residences that we looked at. She is very knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. She kept us up to date on everything that was going on, and stuck to the schedule. We highly recommend her.

Cathy Carter is one of the best realtors in the valley! Her professionalism, passion and tenacity really shine throughout the experience. She had to do some of the work of the buyer's inexperienced agent to close the sale of my house. She truly went to bat for me to get a great price with upgrades on the purchase of my new home, and even close in 3-weeks.

If you want the best, I highly recommend Cathy to represent you buying and selling your residential real estate!

Cathy is a fantastic realtor. We were buying from out of state and it couldn't have gone more smoothly from start to finish 30 days later. With being from out of state and needing info on landscapers and window washers and pool people - Cathy has a "man" and number for everything and all of those people are fantastic and also highly recommend Cathy. Please give her a call for your real estate needs!! You won't be disappointed.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cathy Carter sold my home in just 3 days! That's right, 3 days on the market. I needed a quick sale and she knew just how to make it happen. And I got a great price too! The first things I noticed about Cathy was how professional she is and her depth of knowledge. I had many questions throughout the entire process and in the rare event that Cathy did not answer her phone, I got a call back from her in just minutes.

I will definitely call Cathy Carter for my future real estate needs.

Thanks Cathy!

Working with Cathy was wonderful. She is honest and realistic about home values. Cathy keeps you updated through the entire process and always available to answer any questions. Cathy works with great people, including her home stager Laney, who made an already beautiful home that much more appealing to variety of buyers. Also, a shout out to Cathy's gardner who came over and removed a snake that had been living under our shed. Who knew selling a home would be this easy and exciting.

My wife and I had the opportunity of working with Cathy over the last few months in buying our next dream home. As a matter of fact, we just closed the deal two days ago. During this short time period , we've learned a few things about Cathy:

1. Among thousands of realtors in the greater Phoenix area, Cathy is a shining star, a TOP performer. Choose a star.

2. Cathy is a GREAT realtor - she is knowledgeable, experienced, and efficient, but most important, she is quite proactive - she somehow knew the pitfalls, and worked hard to prevent them (otherwise we would have been delayed by a week in closing).

3. Cathy truly cares about her clients and takes good care of them. She has a strong team behind her who do good job whenever needed. Cathy goes above and beyond to ensure her clients are well served.

We appreciate Cathy, and feel confident that she will continue to bring success to many more clients, and to herself.

Cathy made our home purchase a truly wonderful experience. Passionate is the word that best describes Cathy's dedication to her clients. I would recommend that anyone looking for a house in the Phoenix area contact Cathy. From the moment you meet her you feel like you've been friends forever. Thank you Cathy we are so excited with our new house and it wouldn't have been possible without all of your help.

Working with Cathy was great! She helped us with our out of state contingent purchase. She found us a great place in Tempe and did all the leg work for us while we were still at home. The transaction went very smoothly. I highly recommend giving her a call if you need an agent in East valley.

Thanks Cathy

Being out of town buyers, we could only view homes in person on weekends. During our search, Cathy made herself available to us to view as many houses as we wanted during any given weekend that we were looking (in some cases this exceeded 10 homes!). She was always pleasant and knowledgeable on the areas we were searching and provided us with very helpful information. For the most part we provided her with lists of homes to view and Cathy pulled the MLS listings of the home, and on occasion would find a few more that she thought we might be interested in seeing. On a few occasions where we could not be in the area to look at houses, Cathy took the time out of her busy schedule to walk through the homes, send us pictures, and provided us with advise on whether or not we would like the home(s). For the homes we bid on, Cathy provided a list of people to use for the home inspections. She gave consideration to the cost of the home inspectors which saved us a quite a few dollars. When we closed on our home Cathy provided us with a whole home cleaning service free of charge. That was a huge gesture that showed us that she appreciated our business. We know that even now, after the sale, we can count on Cathy to provide us with information on our home and home services. So as you can tell by now, we highly recommend Cathy Carter for anyone requiring a helpful, accessible, and caring Real Estate agent!

Me and my family have both purchased and sold homes using the experience and knowledge of Cathy Carter in the Arizona area. Cathy is very professional and listens to what her customers goals are. We are Canadians which makes the job of buying and selling homes in the US a bit more of a challenge. Cathy knows all the ins and outs of this process and goes to great lengths to get the job done seamlessly with no issues at all. I have recommended her to several friends that have utilized her expertise and have had nothing but praise come back for what she was able to do. Simply i could not of had a better experience with my transactions within Arizona and i think all my friends would agree. Cathy will always be my one call when buying or selling in Arizona. Cathy, thank you for everything and for all the extra assistance we required to make these transactions go smoothly.
Peter.

Cathy Carter did a great job helping us to find a house in Gilbert. Her personality and ability to connect and deal with people, both buyers and sellers, is what makes her stand out as an excellent realtor. She is willing to go that extra step when you need her too.
We purchased from out of state. Cathy made it easy and painless. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a highly successful real estate agent.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Cathy. We just closed on our house and I am certain that it would not have happened without her. She is very professional but also easy to talk to, whether it's a question, comment, or concern. One of the things that I was most impressed with is her presentation during our listing appointment. Compared to other realtors that we met with, she is much more tech savvy and really understands how people today look to purchase homes. She was an absolute joy to work with and I will recommend her to everyone I know looking to buy or sell!!!

I am a RE/MAX agent with RE/MAX Action in the Chicago area. My daughter lived in Chandler and was moving back to Chicago. I searched the RE/MAX data base and came up with a few agents. After Googleing Cathy's name she had the most exposure of all the agents I found. That was very important to me. Then I talked with her. She is a professional. She understood this unusual situation. She treated my daughter as if she was family. She went over and beyond to make sure her home got sold. She took care of the house when my daughter left for Chicago. She held open houses. Cathy kept in constant contact with my daughter and I. She took care of every detail all the way until the property closed. I can not recommend her enough for the excellent job she did. I will recommend her to any client that I have moving out to the Phoenix area.

Cathy was the consummate professional. Her experience and knowledge base is apparent, she knows the business.  Our home had over 20 views and 3 full offers, all in the first week. We're confident that this was in large part to Cathy's internet broadcast marketing, her client networking skills, and good old fashion 'hustle'.  As good and busy as she is, she was always available for a phone call, an email, even in-person meetings.  Cathy truly represented us by making our home-selling experience virtually hassle-free.  She handled every detail.  Thank you Cathy!

Cathy Carter is hands down the best realtor I've ever had the pleasure working with. My husband and I started our search and couldn't decide whether or not we really wanted to make the move. Regardless of our back and forth ways, in over a year she never lost contact or seemed inconvenienced when we wanted to look at a property. Cathy found us our DREAM home!! And sold our prior home in 3 days! Yes, 3! She has a way of making you feel like you are her only client. She almost always answers her phone and if for some reason she doesn't, you hear back from her in minutes. She is professional and extremely knowledgable. She has an incredible way of putting you at ease during the sometimes (ok most of the time!) exasperating process of buying and selling your home. Plus, she is a straight shooter which I appreciated! All in all, I couldn't have asked for a better realtor or experience. I would never even consider letting a friend or an acquaintance use anyone else.

Cathy was fantastic! She is always prompt in her communication and is very knowledgable about the market and the process, which saved us a lot of stress. We felt very confident in her and trusted her opinions. Our experience was so wonderful I recommended her to my mother a month later, and she also had the same wonderful experience.

My wife and I chose Cathy to sell our house based on her straightforward personality, honesty and intelligence. She had given us real estate advice roughly two years ago that turned out to be 100% correct and we felt sure we could have complete confidence in her for this sale. We were not disappointed. She kept us totally informed with updates, market information and her keen understanding of the real estate market. She sold our house for the asking price in less than two months at a price we were very pleased with. In addition to the foregoing we had relocated and were not even in the area while she managed the sale of our house. It was a personal and professional pleasure to work with this accomplished Realtor. I want to add one more fact for those considering working with Cathy, over a 40 year career my wife and I have bought and sold 10 homes. We recognize excellence in the Real Estate profession.

Cathy is great to work with. In my situation it was our first house and we were relocating from out of state. She handled everything smoothly and we even had a few bumps along the way but she was able to navigate us through the process. We'd highly recommend anyone searching for a real estate agent to use Cathy.

Cathy Carter is amazing! I recently moved to Arizona from out of state, she worked tirelessly on my behalf and honestly, made me feel so comfortable, as if I were her only client. That's a rare talent! Cathy knew within our first 30 minutes together which neighborhood would be perfect AND found my great new home within my price range.

Cathy Carter was a savior for me, helping me quickly to list my home following my wife's sudden death. Cathy was highly professional, caring , and proactive about helping in every possible way. She is a very organized agent with excellent communication skills, thereby keeping me informed and up-to-date at all times; needless to say, she was always responsive to my questions and requests in a very timely manner. Bottom line: she got the job done for me, finding a buyer within about 3 weeks and we closed there after within 30 days. What a relief! Thank you cathy: job well done!

"Cathy Carter was exceptional! My wife and I live out of state and were selling our 2nd home. Cathy never missed one of my phone calls. She made herself available anytime I called and took the time to walk my wife and I through the entire real estate process. Cathy held numerous open houses and generated interest in our home through her contacts. Her online updates from each showing kept my wife and I informed and gave us the feedback we wanted each time a realtor showed the house. Cathy was professional, thorough, organized, and a true pleasure to work with. Thank you Cathy for hard work and getting our home sold!!!! Sincerely, Brandon & Chirlaine Hrabe "

Thank You, My wife and I were able to find and purchase the house that was best for us. For that process, Cathy Carter's advise was fundamental given her knowledge on the market, pros and cons between different neighborhoods within Chandler, and even assistance to find qualified labor for about everything that may need to be repair/remodel in the property. Her honest and non-bias guidance gave us the confidence to complete that process with her. Cathy is consistently professional, patient, and she has a positive aptitude toward her job, which was a decisive factor to find our home. Thank you Cathy for your great work. Best Regards, Alex and Martha

Cathy Carter helped me buy my condo AND sell it. I live in another state and the property needed several repairs to get it ready for sale. She took care of coordinating everything and her responsiveness and professionalism made the whole process a thousand times easier. I was very impressed by how quickly she was able to get things done. If you are looking for a real estate agent I strongly recommend her." Best, Steve

October 2012 To Whom It May Concern: We are writing this letter to express our sincere thanks and complete satisfaction with Cathy Carter as our realtor. My wife and me recently located from the east coast to the Phoenix area. The service and personal attention we received from Cathy was exceptional and unexpected from a realtor! Cathy's knowledge of the local market and her key contacts in the community helped us in our search for our dream home. Cathy was attentive to our needs and took the extra time to understand what was important to us in our home. Cathy patiently filtered through listings and scheduled showings and meetings at our convenience after work and on weekends. Not only did she locate and negotiate a great deal on our perfect home, she also found us an additional investment property that we also purchased. Regardless of whether you are buying or selling, we would highly recommend Cathy Carter to help you in this life changing move. We could not have asked for a better person to guide us through the process! Sincerely, Heather & Michael Palavido

She also made us feel like we were her only buyers! She found houses that matched our style and never wasted our time! When we moved back to the Northwest, we were over a thousand miles away. We completely trusted Cathy to help us with the sell of our Arizona home. She was efficient, professional and a pleasure to work with! She helped us find one of the best realtors in the NW as well. She went above and beyond to make buying a dream home in the NW possible. Her team was also very timely and easy to get a hold of. I would recommend her to anyone when buying or selling a home!
