Kathy Hamlin - Testimonials

With the exception of one initial face to face meeting at the beginning of the sale process, the sale transaction was done completely long distance. After working closely (remotely) with Kathy on the seamless sale of my fathers house, I don't think any effort expended trying to find the 'best Realtor in the Fresno/Clovis area' would have been necessary. In my opinion, you're not going to find a more professional, responsive, and efficient Real Estate Broker than Kathy Hamlin.

She knew exactly what are needs were from the beginning and followed through to make it happen. Selling a home can be stressful but Kathy’s ability and professionalism throughout the sale process made an anxiety melt away. Kathy’s integrity is stellar. She knows her stuff and answered all my questions and concerns in a timely manner. I knew I could reach out at anytime. The sale went so smoothly and the timeline was perfect! Kathy Hamlin will always be referred by us to anyone needing a realtor. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kathy took care of everything! Well done! Thank you so much!

Her responsiveness always left me feeling confident in her abilities. She sold my home and walked me through escrow in record time. I always felt appreciated and well taken care of, she provides wonderful communication throughout the process. I highly recommend Kathy Hamlin!

She was always quick to communicate with us and her friendly and upbeat personality made us feel like we were working with someone who genuinely had a vested interest in our future home. She and her team helped us find our dream home, put together a competitive offer that was accepted on our first try, and got us through the fastest escrow I’ve ever heard of. For all these reasons and more, I highly recommend Kathy and the Guarantee Real Estate Fig Garden Office.

That was amazing since it had been on the market with another broker for over a year without an offer! Kathy is always positive and kept us well informed at every step throughout the sale of our home. She was tough when she needed to be, when the buyer wasn't meeting deadlines, but always professional. She made the whole process easy and seamless, with electronic signatures, since I was out of town through much of the process. I can't say enough--she did a great job for us!

They explained the process step-by-step for me so that I understood what was going to happen & what I was signing. Everything fell into place easily & I appreciate Kathy, Dan & their team!

She helped us conduct both transactions at the same time. Kathy never failed to meet our expectations of a professional agent, nor did she ever give us the impression that she was anything less than a fierce advocate for our financial and housing needs. There are several examples of times when we felt Kathy went to great ends on our behalf. In the purchase of our new home, Kathy first responded to a text to check out this house we loved, and she arrived within the hour to do an informal walk-through. Her availability never waned – not on weekends, evenings, nor early mornings. Whenever she foresaw a schedule conflict, she ensured seamless availability with her very capable assistants and colleagues. She negotiated a killer deal for us and stuck by our side as we moved into the house and worked out kinks. She gave good practical advice regarding warranties and contractors. In the sale of our old home, Kathy’s advertising and sales tactics were tenacious and reflexive. She never let up in promoting our house as an ideal purchase. She constantly kept her finger on the pulse of the market in order to shift tactics to keep our house relevant and desirable in a difficult market – the winter holidays. She sold our house in three months with a cash offer for asking price. Kathy demonstrated a trend of partnering with very capable professionals. Title, inspection, pest certification, etc. were all done with great satisfaction on both of our homes (sale and purchase). She also had great follow-up, in that she regularly checked in with us whenever a process was complete to determine our level of satisfaction. Whenever something was not to our liking, Kathy was quick to suggest a remedy and never hesitated to go at bat for us. As a professional, Kathy puts her money where her mouth is, and she keeps others to task and holds them to their word. She insists on the best deal for her clients, and she responds to new situations with a “no bull” attitude. Her down-to-Earth attitude and genuine compassion for our needs were a blessing. We’ve already promoted her endlessly to our friends and family, as we’re very confident in not only her ability as a real estate agent, but her personal passion for helping people get one of their most basic needs – a good home.

She helped us in every way and went above and way beyond to help get our home ready for sale. She is also extremely knowledgeable and streamlined all the many jobs that there were for cleaning, purging, repairs and staging. I could never have done it without her! She is a strong and positive advocate for her clients, unlike several we've had in prior moves, she fights for you! We just can't thank her enough!! She sold our home in ONE DAY AT FULL PRICE!!

She was always cheerful and positive and very professional. I would recommend Kathy Hamlin to all of my friends.

It was there that I saw her professionalism and hard work. It was an easy decision to ask Kathy to be our realtor. We live out of state and it was important to have someone I trusted. Kathy was timely on all of her communications, even with the three hour time difference. She was patient in walking us through paper work and all of our questions, via FaceTime or phone calls. She made the process as hassle free as possible and our home sold in 10 days. I highly recommend Kathy, her service was impeccable.

We had decided to relocate out of state after retiring and once we found our new home, we hoped to sell our current one fairly quickly. Kathy got it done! She gave us great advice on prepping our property for sale, coordinated staging and photos, and got the listing up fast. We had solid offers after the first Open House, despite going on the market between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Kathy was responsive, encouraging and stayed on top of the process from beginning to end. In fact, she truly went above and beyond when we ran into a bit of a hiccup with our move-out plans. Kathy is a gem and my wife and I recommend her highly!

She did a great job of helping navigate the choppy waters of home buying.

She listens, adjusts and adapts to every situation she's put into and always has the needs and wishes of her clients in mind.

We are very satisfied with Kathy! She is very professional and kind. We knew we could trust her to have our best interest at all times! Thank you Kathy for making this process so quick and easy! You are an amazing Realtor and new friend!

She did whatever was necessary to make my sale, including arranging for repairs and such. She consistently communicated with us and brought all documents to our home at our convenience. I was always certain she was in our corner. She expressed her gratitude for our business all the while- we were so grateful for her! We will call Kathy for any and all real estate needs!

For us, that person was Kathy Hamlin. With patience and intelligence, she led us step by step through the whole process, from the browsing of listings, to securing financing, to the closing of escrow. With her guidance, we found the right home in the right locale at the right price. We recommend Kathy to anyone looking for an experienced broker to help them find the perfect home.

They were extremely responsive, positive, organized and professional at all times. Kathy and team communicated often and clearly to ensure we knew each step of the process. Fabulous service all around. Thank you so much!!

She had to deal with our renters still living in the house which created some its own set of problems. Kathy was very persistent yet very professional while dealing with the renters. Kathy would always answer text or phone calls promptly which was a huge help. I would definitely recommend Kathy to anyone selling their home.

As a professional, she communicated well and ensure that all of the options are available and transparent to me. She ensured that repairs were made professionally and at the best cost for me. I appreciate Kathy and her associate, Aryann in working together as a team to get the sale made. Thank you.

She knew just what we needed to do to make the sale quickly and also was able to get us everything we needed, even a long escrow. She was such a pleasure to work with. She was available whenever we needed her via phone, email and/or text. She made my husband and I feel very comfortable and my kids loved when she came over!

Kathy was quick to set-up our initial meeting, listened to our questions and concerns and with her experience she was able to quickly arrived at a listing price higher than we anticipated. The support team she used to help get the property ready for sale and staged (i.e. cleaning crew, trash hauling company, decorator and photographer) was super helpful and appreciated. Kathy provided updates throughout the process and was very helpful in negotiating the final acceptance of an great offer. Kathy truly made the whole process a pleasant experience.

She went above and beyond.

Her responsiveness always left me feeling confident in her abilities. She sold my home and walked me through escrow in record time. I always felt appreciated and well taken care of, she provides wonderful communication throughout the process. I highly recommend Kathy Hamlin!

This our second transaction using Kathy and, in both situations, we have found her to be the simply the best. She listened to our concerns, gave us appropriate guidance, and was timely and responsive to our needs.

Working with Kathy and her team was a great experience from start to finish0. Their knowledge of the local market helped us price our home competitively and secure a great offer as well as make a competitive offer on our purchase. They had our best interests in mind and went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly through closing.

As I expected, she exceeded all of my expectations and we sold our home quickly. Kathy was organized, encouraged us to ask questions, explained every from we had to sign in detail, worked with a sense of urgency and was always available when we needed her. She made the sale of our home as seamless as it could be and I couldn't imagine having any other real estate agent. What I appreciated most about Kathy was her willingness to go above and beyond as she staged our home for us, contacted repairmen acquiring multiple quotes and even called a real estate agent in the state we moved to to find us a temporary rental home. Buying and selling a home is a stressful experience in any circumstance, but we were thankful to have Kathy helping us with each step of the process.

Kathy is very knowledgeable and friendly.

I have not been involved in any real estate transactions in more that twenty years and I was in a constant state of worry about how it would work out for me. Kathy walked me through every step along the way and in the end it all seemed seamless. Thank you for the service.

The delay in my closing would have been much longer without Kathy managing the buyers agent. Kathy took steps to protect me financially should additional buyer delays occurred. Kathy's experience and professionalism managing a multitude of buyer side issues made what could have been a very stressful time period less burdensome for me.

She was very organized and went above and beyond the call of duty to help prep our parents’ home for sale. She not only made recommendations, she shopped the items to replace and improve, and sent me pics with the prices. She has good contacts for painting bids and other repairs. She told my brother and I we weren’t her only clients. We would have not known by her always available responses. Thank you Kathy Hamlin for a job well done!

Her answers to all of our questions were fast and thorough. Her communication throughout the process was fantastic. She expertly guided us on everything from the offering price to handling the steps to complete escrow. We recommend her to anyone but especially first-time buyers.

Kathy was very helpful and very knowledgeable and made the process very smooth as. Kathy found multiple houses for us to look at and was very good to working around my schedule. She gave me her honest thoughts about the homes. During the escrow process, she helped recommend the best inspectors and schedule times for them to come over to the house.

The process of buying a home was not as easy as we thought, as we couldn't find one that we could call 'home', even after looking at so many properties. Kathy was patient along the way and understood our needs and wants. Kathy is the kind of agent who's wiling to go the distance and she is very thoughtful. On one late meeting in her office, she provided a dinner feast for me and my family. After many weeks of searching and working with Kathy, we finally found our new home. Even though we wanted more, Kathy was able to negotiate a flat screen TV to come with the house (I wanted the red Corvette).
