Kathy Staiano

It gives me great pleasure to share my total happiness of Kathy Staiano and her customer-focused service with anyone reading this. Every situation is different of course but perhaps mine might have truly shown her abilities. I was living overseas, in Brazil, at the time I decided to purchase an investment property in Denver, a city in which I had lived for considerable time before. Dealing long-distance might not necessarily be difficult but from where I was, even simple things were a challenge. But Kathy worked hard to overcome each and every one and after a quick market visit, we narrowed-down the choices and closed on a condo. Less than one year later, I wanted a second property though not necessarily in the same area. But the value of the first unit had grown so much and all the reasons that it fit my needs then still applied and I wound up with another unit.

Again, as in the first case, things from such a distance were not always easy. For example the concept of Notary Public does not exist. Once again Kathy dealt with everything as if I were next door and the closing went perfectly. Both units were rented quickly, the newest one within 10 days and the rental fee, after expenses, is slightly cash-positive. The true value will come from the sale of the properties eventually and the growth is exactly as Kathy predicted.

More than her expertise and market knowledge however, is that she is simply wonderful with whom to deal. Always happy, always giving her full attention to individual wants and needs, punctual and prepared.

Now that I think about it, maybe I shouldn't say such things; I don't want to have to fight for her time for my next purchase because, inevitably, anyone who selects her as their realtor agent will want to monopolize her time too!

I'm pleased and proud to recommend her without hesitation.

As the saying goes:,“You don’t know, what you don’t know.” My husband and I have worked with Kathy for over 15 years on six different properties and I can’t imagine doing anything in residential real estate without consulting with her first. Her knowledge about the market and her counsel has been invaluable in assessing the right opportunities to pursue, and just as importantly the ones to forego. Kathy has worked with us on the purchase and sale of our primary residences, mountain home, investment properties and my family’s home after my mother’s death. She is superbly talented in balancing the stress in these transactions, which are our most significant financial investments, with the emotion that sometimes accompanies major life changes prompting a move. Plus, her attention to detail and unrelenting representation of our best interests makes the entire process between contract and closing as easy as possible. Most people don’t have the opportunity to work with a Realtor as often as we have with Kathy. It’s the benefit of this experience with her, and unfortunate experiences with other real estate agents before her, that have cemented our trust in Kathy as a real estate professional and valued member of our financial team.
