We did a very careful search and checked references on many realtors at the time. We needed someone who was honest, knowledgeable, and had the motivation and business savvy to get us the best price. Katie having had a former background in journalism made me feel she had integrity and a reliance for facts and checking things out. Her business savvy did shine through as she got a bidding war going on between some of the big players in the Boulder area and the result was that we got a surprisingly high price for the house. To us, she has always shown honesty and integrity, has been knowledgeable and astute which is more that one can ask for in a professional. In a word, Katie is genuine. Katie is not only a good realtor, she is a good friend.
