She advised me on everything that I needed to do also, such as inspections etc. She is prompt, and is always available for questions.

She founded her own real estate company over 20 years ago, so you are in good hands with her.

We worked with Keith and Kris multiple times throughout the years. From our interaction with them,…read morethey are always very professional, competitive, understanding and responsive. Here are a few examples: 1. They offer their honest opinions regardless of whether or not they will do business with us this time. There was a time that we went up to Keith and Kris to sell our rental house to get rid of the landlord frustrations. Although helping us to sell the houses would benefit their business, they still analyzed with us the pros and cons to sell or own, did all the appraisal work but left the choice to us . Eventually we decided not to sell the house however we kept long-lasting relationship with the Walker team. 2. They provided professional guidance during the house shopping process. There was this time when both COVID restriction and holiday seasons made very low housing inventories, despite the super hot housing market, they were very patient in showing the houses, went out their ways to meet up our needs, tell us more than the property itself but also what to avoid as new home buyers. We were very impressed that Kris was able to handle complicated situation and had solid insights at such a young age. 3. We were under stress to close our deals however multiple unexpected events occurred to complicate the situation. The Walker team negotiated with the owner to buy us more time, dealt with the owners' stress to close out, and even asked for more from the owner for us, just because they think it's the fair thing to do. This is rare in this strong-seller market nowadays. 4. They went extra miles to help us beyond house-shopping - they helped us so many times by using their own connections. The contacts that they shared with us, e.g.: the pest-control team, the property manager, even the loan agents, are all very good-quality. Working with Keith and Kris is like working with a whole package of professionals, you won't be anxious or stressful when you know they got your back. It was a pleasant interaction and learning experience with Keith and Kris, I would strongly recommend them to others.

I contacted SVP after our real estate agent said it would be 2+ weeks before his photographer could fit us in. SVP responded with in hours and was able to schedule for the next day. The beautiful, fully edited photos were delivered the following day. They were able to provide a stunning "twilight" shot even though they came at 10:30 in the morning. (Yay for mad Photoshop skills!) Side note: our agent took his own not-awesome photos and posted on MLS. I'm attaching a comparison. Photography is so important, especially in the Covid-19 era where there are no open-houses.

Matt Draper is a fantastic realtor. People say sometimes , my so and so went the extra mile and…read moreMatt really did during our sale.

Please let this be a WARNING to all future tenants. I know it's hard to find housing in this town,…read morebut please do not rent from RE 831! The owner Suzie does not think of you as a person you are just a pocketbook to her. I lived in my apartment for five years and it was so sad to see neighbors come and go so frequently due to the yearly 10% rent increase. I have plenty of stories about Suzie and her employee Lisa acting as though they are beyond superior to me and my other neighbors. Stories Including the owners coming onto my property and going inside without asking, I know a few past tenants that have had to take her to small claims. But here is my doozy of a story. Buckle up because it's a good one, I have attached screenshots of emails of proof of this happening. When I moved in one of my neighbors that I had shared a wall with were sadly using drugs heavily, and there was a lot of domestic violence going on. They eventually moved out. About a week later after them moving out , I heard and saw one of the old tenants coming and going showering and bringing people over in the middle of the night while the house was empty. I called the police and emailed Suzie about this multiple times and in her emails she states that she DOUBTS I am hearing and seeing this man coming and going in the middle of the night to an empty house and squatting. Let me tell you, I spoke to him one of the mornings when he was leaving, I have video of him coming and going, and yes, I had made two police reports about this. She still "doubted" that I was seeing and hearing him. I was concerned for my neighbors safety and myself. I was shocked at the carelessness and heartless manner that Suzie was handling the situation. I'm just beyond words that people like her even exist on this planet, so please , if you want to be treated like a human being and that your concerns and money mattertake my story as a warning and do not rent from RE 831. Edit : After posting my original review above, I decided I wanted to add the screenshots of Susie and Lisa trying to cover their steps after admitting that the owners had come into my apartment with no prior communication. Mind you, they came into my apartment while I was moving out. The screenshots for this incident are from my email with the little moon symbol so you don't get confused of the two events. Sorry if they are posting out of order! Also, my building was falling apart! The termites are running rampant in this building, and Susie was notified of this matter multiple times and nothing has been done. You can hear rodents running through the walls, my light fixture stopped working because I believe rats probably ate through the wiring in my ceiling. The only time you'll ever see Susie is when she zooms up the driveway in her Porsche Cayenne to collect change from the washer and dryer that barely even works.

I only needed to follow his advice and every single improvement he suggested provided me a 200 - 300% return on my cost. We ended up selling my house for $300K higher than the asking price. Chris is an honest, passionate, friendly person, and I enjoyed every process we went through together. I have already recommended him to my friends who plan to sell their house.
