12/30/20- Sold a single family home

"Whatever I write in this review is not going to do justice to the level of service we received with Kerry and her team. Simply put we felt like family. From the high responsiveness, flexing to our communication styles, to the words of encouragement we never felt like we were alone.

We were in the midst of major change for our family uprooting from our home in Olympia for over a decade to a new job and a new neighborhood with no friends or community.

Kerry and her team quickly became our community and our friends...

Kerry is wonderful to work with and answered all my 100's of questions. She got everything done quickly.

I am a repeat customer with her!

We have done a total of five transactions with Kerry and every one has been better than the last! We are a military family who moved to the Seattle metro area 6 years ago. In our case it took three houses over 5 years to find the one that is just right for us in the perfect area that meets all our  needs. Those first two homes were amazing finds, but in the end Kerry was with us for the long haul; years of sorting through houses to find that one perfect fit that we could call home as we transition out of military service and put down roots here in the Pacific Northwest. Every time we called she picked up. Don’t take your chances with an agent who is in it only to close the deal- you want Kerry. She is in this business to get people into the right home, not just any home, no matter what it takes. She truly puts your needs right in the center of the whole operation and she will be there when the dust settles. We love Kerry and couldn’t recommend her enough!

Having Kerry as your agent will give you complete and total peace of mind. Her knowledge in the Real Estate arena is outstanding and her personal attributes are beyond what one would normally encounter during the "buying or selling" process. With her amazing skills, an offer was made on our home  within 24 hours of going on the market and closed within a month. Kerry is truly the one to look to for your real estate needs.

Kerry has the knowledge, personality, expertise and people skills to get the job done for you every time. Several times during our sale she was able to calm a situation and keep the transaction moving forward in a positive and favorable manner for both seller and buyer. Kerry and her team have  the skill and tools to keep things on track in this fast paced and ever-changing market we're in. I unhesitatingly recommend Kerry to handle any of your real estate requirements, we could not have completed our sale without her. Thank you Kerry and God Bless.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful job you did for us during our recent move from California to Washington.  From the standpoint of a long distance home buyer, our experience in the purchase of our Mount Vernon home could not have been better.  Since we were unable to travel back and forth to Washington, we needed a realtor who was willing to spend time and energy to preview and comment on homes we viewed on various internet sites. We selected you for our realtor for a number of reasons which include your responsiveness to our initial phone call, your willingness to preview homes of interest, your knowledge of the home values in the area, your suggestion and willingness to video tape the home we were interested in, and to make suggestions on how we could or should not modify the property should we decide to purchase it.  Your video tapes and commentary were so helpful. The time you spent researching and answering our questions was very commendable and appreciated. We especially thank you for calling to let us know the house we were most interested in was about to fall out of escrow, which allowed us time to drive to Washington to make an offer which was quickly accepted.  You certainly care about your clients and make every effort to find and acquire properties that meet their needs. 

We thank you and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a new home in the northern Washington area.

Sincerely, 

Harry and Darlene Andris

When you buy a house from 1100 miles away and sight unseen (except for FaceTime-thanks Becca) you need a Realtor that knows the business, area, and what the client is looking for. Kerry has it all. She is honest and always ready to answer questions and made the process painless. I would gladly work with Kerry again in the future and recommend her highly. ~ Tom & Kim

10/22/2018 - Bought and Sold a Single Family Home in 2018 in Marysville, WA. •

Set aside realty for a minute. Kerry is just a great person in general! Whenever we talked to her she would ask how the family is and just how we are in general before talking business, and she was genuine not just because she "had to". As a realtor she was honest, upfront, and treated myself and my wife almost as her kids. (That's what it felt like) She'd tell us what is good and bad for us and if we had an idea she would stop us and tell us to rethink. I loved that. She was very realistic in finding us a house when moving to Washington and did even better with selling our house IN 2 HOURS!!!! Listed it at 5pm and had an offer by 7pm. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, she took care of us in a very high last minute stressful sale. Not enough to say about her. We just love her. I rate her a 12/10. ~Matt & Nicole

5 Stars is not enough!! I had sought out MANY agents simply trying to understand what is Step 1 of the home buying process but since I was not already pre-qualified from the bank no one would talk to me, except Kerry. she explained what I needed to do, and when it was time, (about a year later) I  contacted her, and we were closing on our home within a month and a half! Kerry and her team are AMAZING! They genuinely cared about our experience, and made sure to explain everything and answer any questions we had, when it came time to write our offer, she had an amazing idea that the seller could not resist, and that is how we landed our dream house! She is an agent who will work for you to get you exactly what you want! As a first time home buyer, I could not have had a better experience. Thank you, Kerry and Team, for all your hard work.

Loved working with Kerry and her team on the sale of our home. Kerry's knowledge of home prep, comparables, and pricing was invaluable. Her analysis and advice was spot on. Her skill, professionalism, honesty, contacts, and personality made for a quick sale at the desired price without all the drama and stress that sometimes happens when selling a home. Kerry made selling our home fun and easy. "Because You Matter" is not just a slogan to Kerry. ~Eric & Kathy

Kerry helped make our home buying and selling experience so much more enjoyable and stress-free. We hit some bumps (as often to be expected) in the process of selling our home, but because of Kerry's experience and efficiency, things ended up working out well for us. She & her staff are knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and go above & beyond to work for their clients. ~Jeremy & Ali

 

7/24/2018 - Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Arlington, WA •

If you are buying or selling Kerry is your girl. She not only sold our house in record time but also worked with our agent in Kansas to make sure we met all deadlines and set it up for us to sign for our Kansas home in Washington so we didn't have to race there to sign for closing a week later. I am very pleased with Kerry, she went above and beyond for us. ~Roger & Jana

Best experience EVER working with Kerry and her team. Knowledgeable, professional, open, and honest about everything. Kerry never left me wondering about anything and never made me feel what I really wanted in a home wasn't going to be an option for me. Always kept me updated from the selling of my condo and buying a home for my son and I. I wish that I could score her and her team higher. Truly and amazing experience!! I would recommend her to anyone. Kerry you're the best! ~ Jennifer

Simply the most outstanding agent I ever met. Very professional and personable. We had her help us sell our house and she helped us buy another. Kerry responds quickly to every call or text. She spends all the time needed in person. I give her the highest possible rating. I can't imagine a better agent. ~Ed & Mary

 

4/10/2018 - Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Arlington, WA •

Wow, what a great agent. Just went through the process of selling our ailing moms place. Kerry is so good at explaining the processes and finding the new buyer. We will be contacting her when we get ready to sell our home here in Snohomish. ~Kevin

If you have stumbled upon Kerry without a reference you are the luckiest buyer/seller in the area between Seattle and Vancouver. Seriously. There are so many bad and mediocre agents and you have found the best. I have only bought and sold one house, so I'm not an expert but the difference between our first agent and Kerry was stark- like night and day. Kerry is honest, respectful, hard working, and highly communicative. She sold our house well above asking. Early in the process she encouraged us to choose a date to sell and stand on it. When the doubts crept in as to whether or not we should sell her advice we stayed our hand and we are so glad it did. The whole process was top notch- the photos she took, the description of our house, the staging, everything was so carefully thought out. It was evident she spent a lot of time doing the leg work for us. She had the expertise to anticipate problems before they came. I can't say enough about this tremendous woman. I only wish she could oversee every home my and my friends have to buy for the rest of our lives. ~Zach

 

02/13/2018 - Sold a Single Family home in 2018 in Mountlake Terrace, WA •

My dad passed away unexpectedly in August and we had to put his house up for sale. EVERYTHING involved with the sale of the house was foreign to me. Especially being that it wasn't my house, I was just the administrator. There were hurdles to go through that were completely out of my realm of knowledge. Kerry not only helped every step of the way she was also incredibly patient. The process was terribly sad for me and Kerry understood that. She really facilitated everything to make it easier on me. She was always a phone call or text away and never once did I have to wait more than a few minutes to get a response from her. The staging she did in the house was beautiful and I am sure it helped to sell the house. She also knew the market so well and she priced the house just right. The house not only sold the day after it was listed but $30,000 over the asking price. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing to buy or sell a home. This is also the 2nd home she has sold in our family. ~Lana

Kerry McGhie is definitely an expert in her field. A true professional that understand the needs of her clients and goes above and beyond addressing those needs to develop a genuine business relationship. The main reason I chose to work with Kerry is that she spoke to my wife and I like a friend would. She had our best interests in mind. The paperwork was all done electronically and she made time meet with us on our schedule and was available over the phone to answer any questions. Her years of experience makes her well equipped to understand the market and know when to look for. We found exactly what we were looking for, Kerry made that happen with no fears. I feel I have a go to person for anything real estate related. I recommend Kerry McGhie, she's the best! ~Travis

Kerry helped us buy our new home. She did an amazing job by removing the stress and frustration that comes with buying a home. She erased the fear of the unknown by creating a clear path for us to follow. She was always ahead of the game and ready to encourage us at just the right time. Great job Kerry. ~Terry

 

11/02/2017 - Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in Granite Falls, WA •

We met Kerry McGhie 4 years ago when we were buying our current house. Throught that process we were astonished by her many incredible attributes she displayed while helping us procure our new home. Kerry has an uncompromising moral foundation based on her faith and her constant positive outlook on life. She has extensive knowledge of the intricacies of the real-estate transaction, which she uses to help her customers feel safe, protected, and loved. Kerry brings with her a heart so big and so comforting that is hard to remember it is still a business transaction. We recently partnered with Kerry to sell our rental property; it could not have been more smooth and painless. When the challenges arose, she obtained the information needed and provided us with the options so we could make educated decisions. Her instinct in the market is unparalleled and a constant professional; allowing us to maximize our return and sell our home at its full potential. I am often asked to refer and agent to a friend, I explain to them that I know lots of agents but what I can do is refer to them someone more than that. As a professional who believes networking is a key to success, just referring Kerry doesn't truly do her justice. I believe you need to have her in your circle as not just a professional but also a friend. ~Gabe

 

7/24/2017 - Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in Marysville, WA •

Kerry went above and beyond to facilitate a transaction that was full of turns and twists. Every part of the journey she was there to reaffirm the positive. Keep us tracking to the ultimate goal of selling our home and tirelessly working to ensure we came out with the most change in our pockets.   From her referrals to people who could help repair the house for an economical price to ideas on structure and price each way she added value. She did this all with incredible integrity which is priceless. Thanks so much Kerry for doing an amazing job. ~Hanson Family

 

6/14/2017 - Sold a Single Family home in 2017 in Lake Stevens, WA •

Kerry did an absolutely amazing job for us! Within five hours of our house going on the market we had an offer of over $10,000 more than our asking price. She was willing to answer all of our millions of questions and never once made us feel like we were being a nuisance. The sale of our house was  seamless. We highly recommend Kerry if you are in need of selling your home. ~Dani

I don't think there are enough beautiful words to describe Kerry. I feel very fortunate that out of all agents in the world, we found her. She is extremely knowledgeable, and very patient. I had a ton of questions and she didn't left a single one unanswered. We felt very well guided, as she was  always ready for showing a house, always prepared with a ton of information printed prior to showing. Being a first time home buyer on this crazy market is very hard. The ratio is 10:1 in seller's favor and lot of offers are cash. When we put the offer to the house she was fighting like lioness and only thanks to her we got the house. Not just that she is the best agent you could find, she is a wonderful person that you'll enjoy being around to. I know me and my family did. I'm recommending Kerry with all my hart, I'm giving her 100 stars and we will definitely use her services her for every future house selling or buying. ~Vesna

Kerry is that one-in-a-million real estate broker you're always hoping to find. When we relocated to Mount Vernon from Eastern Washington Kerry not only found us the most beautiful home in our price range, she also expertly facilitated in the sale of our Yakima property even though it was not her listing. She is an efficient, tireless problem solver with incredible listening skills - while other agents explain why something isn't their job to do, she's busy getting it done. If you're lucky enough to hire Kerry, you've found the best! ~Jeanmary

Do you want the best service, great knowledge of the market, and a real estate broker that is working for you in YOUR best interest? That's Kerry McGhie. She is one of the best and most dedicated realtors I have had the pleasure of working with.

We loved working with Kerry. She is so helpful and resourceful. My wife and I took a year looking for just the right home for us and Kerry was by our side the whole time. She truly made it her business to know us and our needs, never pushing us to settle or waste time with home we wouldn't like. Kerry's personal touches make the whole experience even better, from her monthly news letter to the holiday cards. Kerry is such a delight. And when you finally find the home you are looking for, Kerry won't leave you in the past. She will continue to be there for you ~Branden

Kerry helped me purchase my first home!! The process was long because it was a bank owned home that had been sitting for years and the sale price was low but through it all I felt like I was her most important client. She made sure I would get that house, she saw what I saw in it and she worked her magic !! Now it's two years later and I still have a relationship with Kerry. And I have a house with plenty of equity that when the time is right I'll be calling on her to help me once again ~Krissy

 

02/10/2017 -  Bought a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $425K in Lake Stevens, WA. • 

We highly recommend Kerry to everyone and anyone. We were new to the State, and hadn't purchased a home for ten years - so the entire process was overwhelming and basically "new" to us. Kerry was familiar with every county we thought to explore, met and spoke with us many times to make sure she  knew EXACTLY what our family wanted and needed, and not only helped pinpoint homes for us but gave us the tools to do so as well. She knows the market, knows the neighborhoods, property values, trends - AND she knows the mortgage process, keeping in touch with our Lender and us the entire time. Kerry is also an amazing resource for anything and everything you would need - information as well as people (appraisers, contractors, etc). She came through for us time and again, and made the entire homebuying process as easy as possible. Kerry is a spectacular, invaluable Real Estate Professional and an amazing Lady. You really couldn't choose a better person to help you with your home. ~The Wren's

Kerry has helped my family find homes to meet our needs with patience, diligence and with prayer! She searched with and for the perfect home with my husband and myself for several months. When we walked into the "one", we just knew it. We knew by that evening that our bid had been accepted. (I also knew that my realtor was praying for the transaction!) Kerry recently helped our family find a home for my parents within 1/2 mile from our new residence. She knew it was important to us to be close and we are all thrilled with the outcome on this unique property. I would recommend Kerry as a realtor with your best interests in mind. She takes the time to really listen to what your needs and desires are. ~Kim

Kerry worked with us for over a year from first contact to closing. Our needs list had some unusual aspects that we needed to include. She was very helpful as we were moving from out of state trying to find a house to purchase in Everett. She continues to be a great resource when we need recommendations for contractors or services. Kerry is always compassionate and very patient with our 3 young children and the needs of our youngest with physical limitations. Thanks for your help Kerry! ~Margie

I've met with a couple real estate agents that I didn't go with before I met with Kerry. What made it even better was she knew me from an elementary school she worked at years prior. She's made the whole nerve wrecking process so easy for me. Very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I would recommend her to anyone and I also referred her to my best friend who also recently made a purchase! ~Brandon
