Really an excellent experience! Very positive, straight forward & experienced. If you want to sell hire the best at doing that. Thanks Kathy, enjoyed the experience & learned a couple things!
Kathy Valente is not just your standard realtor. We have known Kathy for many years, and would never venture into a real estate transaction without her. We have bought and sold several homes utilizing Kathy's remarkable talents as a skilled facilitator, which really puts her above your average Realtor. Kathy is kind, contentious and a cut above. When speaking to friends, family and acquaintances, we tell them we would never venture into any real estate transaction without her.
Kathy is the best realtor in Bradenton period. She is very professional and very knowledgeable, Kathy knows her stuff and she goes out of her way to get you the best price, whether you are buying or selling.Kathy cares about her clients and what they’re needs are for a home. Again Kathy is the best.
Kathy Valente was my realtor for the sale of my house that I had lived in for 19 years. It was a very hard decision and process to leave after all of that time, but Kathy helped me to get through the process with her professionalism and caring. She was truly a Godsend to me and my appreciation will never end! Thank you again Kathy for everything you are and everything that you do.
KATHY HAS BEEN A GREAT REALTOR--SHE HAS KEPT ME INFORMED OF ACTIVITY--AND THOUGH I OWN A VINTAGE HOME, THAT WASN'T GRABBED IMMEDIATELY, WE KNOW THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE WHO WILL JUST LOVE IT!! SHE IS VERY COMFORTABLE TO BE WITH AND YOU'LL HAVE HER 100% ATTENTION.
Our agents Kathy Valente and Jan Spring were both very personable and had a firm grip on all aspects of selling our home. The entire experience was good from start to finish and we have already recommended Michael Saunders and both agents to everyone interested in selling their home.
Kathy recently sold our house in Bradenton for us. This was the most recent of five sales or purchases in which Kathy has been our agent. Obviously, she has our confidence. She has also spent considerable time over the past 25 years showing homes to prospective employees of our practice in Bradenton. I view her as a valuable recruiting tool. Kathy is the consummate real estate professional. She knows what her clients want and needs even if they don’t. Her advice is sound and never self-serving. She is available 7 days a week and has a competent professional staff. I recommend her to anyone in need of a realtor.
Charming, knowledgeable, interested and qualified
Kathy knows exactly what she's doing! My house was listed, shown numerous times, publicized in many ways, and SOLD in two months! The first realtor I chose was not nearly as proactive and didn't get the job done in nine months. Kathy is a true professional!
Kathy, you are my favorite Realtor and friend. I smile every time I think of you and what you helped us do. I can never thank you enough for your persistence and professionalism.
Kathy sold our house in Woodland Park in a DAY! At the highest price record per square foot! Her knowledge of the market is top notch. Not only is she a star real estate agent she is a great friend and golfer. Her expertise is above all the rest! Happy to have Kathy as our favorite broker. She has sold my sister a home and also our friend has bought and sold houses with Kathy. She is a true WINNER in the market. ??????
We've known Kathy for years and she was our first choice to purchase our new home. She has extensive experience and her knowledge and expertise is outstanding in the local real estate market. She worked with us every step of the way and always made herself available.
Our experience with Kathy Valente was outstanding, and we would recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home. Our home sold quickly and for the amount she had suggested it would command, and the sale was clean.
No. Behind the pond is not available to build. only where the trees are the building areas. The pond is a state pond (DEP) for the subdivision.
Working with Kathy has been a real pleasure for my husband and I as we struggled to find a retirement community that met our current needs. She worked long and hard, as well as above and beyond what we ever expected to help us. She and the Michael Saunders team were always available to answer any questions we had and to solve any problems that arose. We would highly recommend her services if you are looking for impeccable, friendly service. Thank you Kathy, with your help, we are now living our dream!
Kathy Valente has sold numerous properties for me. She’s also led me to my homes. I trust her implicitly and recommend her highly !
Such a pleasure. Kathy and the staff are not only professional and courteous but extremely responsive. So appreciated! Even after the sale when some additional paperwork was requested, it was provided swiftly. I highly recommend this organization. Many thanks to all!
Your firm was recommended to me by a paralegal who lives in our complex. She told me to list it with Kathy Valenti and she will sell it so fast your head will spin! Her and Gregory Zies did just that! Both members of their team were in constant communication with me and had numerous showings until the unit sold. I was very impressed with their presentation of the unit and their tenacity in marketing the unit. I would highly recommend your firm to anyone wishing to sell their home. The entire process including the closing was a breeze. Gregory and Kathy were fun and easy to work together with and had many helpful suggestions. Many thanks to both of them for a great job!
I’ve just listed my second property with Kathy, so pleased at how competently the first sale was handled. She is the total package. You get first-class service regardless of the list price of your property. She represents you, the seller as if it’s her only priority and it doesn’t hurt that she has the unequalled arsenal of Michael Saunders resources at her disposal.
Kathy Valente is a very successful realtor broker who is a veteran in this real estate market. She has the ability to align a buyer with the right property by being a good listener, smart, which she then puts the right property aligned to those clients. She consistently is a top producer for Michael Saunders & Company. Call Kathy, you won't be disappointed!
Kathy is a no nonsense realtor who knows her job and knows how to sell a home for the best price in the shortest time. Kathy sold my home for asking price in less than 24 hours. Not only did she sell my house,she bought it to closing without drama, hand wringing and bickering. All of which makes for a wonderful experience. If you want a realtor to do the same for your property then Kathy Valente should be your Realtor.
Kathy is the best. She has helped us buy or sell four different houses over the past 13 years. She is professional, competent, honest and patient. I doubt that anyone knows the local real estate better. I know that no one will work as hard for you.
Kathy was referred to us by a friend and we cannot say enough good things about Kathy and her team of professional. we had three transactions in all and each went off without a hitch. I cannot in good conscience recommend anyone other than Kathy and Gregory. They were always available for questions and resolved our minor hiccups immediately. There were absolutely no major road blocks throughout the three transactions. All contingent contract requirements were immediately scheduled and recommended contributors were also professional and exemplary.
We love Kathy; she sold our house in 48 hrs. Not only did we have one offer, we had 2 offers. Kathy knows the market and has the knowledge on how to market and sell your home. Just let her do her thing and you will be in the money! She is the best professional! She is much more than a realtor; she is a Best Friend for life.
We have purchased many homes over the past 40 years and Kathy Valente has been the best. She is knowledgable of the real estate market and customizes everything toward our needs and desires for finding a new home. I would highly recommend Kathy as your real estate agent.
She has gone out of her way to help us, which is above and beyond any realtor we have ever used before. We would highly recommend her to anyone buying property in the Bradenton, Florida area.
Sold our house almost as soon as it was listed. She will go the extra mile for her clients. May be busy but still finds time ti speak with us.
I wrote a long testimonial about Kathy, yes more than 5 stars for her. I want to add to the Broker of this firm, Kathy represents your firm beyond perfection, she should be rewarded big time. She was on vacation and still kept me up dated with selling my home on her vacation day. She is beyond dedicated. Kathy listens, shares what is important and why to her client. You are more than a number and commission with her. She deserves more than a written testimonial. Diane
I can't imagine a better experience with a real estate agent. Kathy Valente has sold 2 of my properties within 3 weeks of listing. She also found the perfect home for me and orchestrated the closing, as the professional she is! Kathy Valente is thorough, knowledgeable, professional and kind through every step of the process. Whether you're selling or buying, Kathy Valente is the professional you can trust!
Kathy Valente has provided us with exceptional support, patience and service during a very difficult and complex short sale purchases. Kathy stands out for her patience and extra efforts to assist us in determining what is best for us. Kathy never pressured us to "make an offer" or insist we sign an agreement to sell before she would offer her insight, knowledge and sincere guidance. We will always seek Kathy's input and have recommended her to our friends and neighbors.
Bought and sold a couple of houses with Kathy; she’s the best. We received a contract only one day after listing my San Remo house. Kathy has been our Realtor of choice for many years. She’s not only a good Realtor but also a good friend.
As Kathy's photographer, I can tell you that Kathy is the best at what she does in the entire county known as Manatee, Fl, . I work for over 100 different agents and am qualified at expressing who does his/hers job the best and Kathy is the clear winner. Use her attention to detail plus years of experience for a satisfied sales experience...…..bsa
Kathy has been a real asset to our Bradenton, FL property search. She has listened to our desires and found us the perfect home. In this extremely competitive real estate market, Kathy found a way for our offer to stand out heads above our competitors. And then, she handled every aspect of the offer to the settlement all while we were 1100 miles away. Kathy was always available to answer our questions from early in the morning to after dinner hours. Our buying experience with Kathy Valente was pretty painless due to her professionalism and knowledge. We highly recommend Kathy for your Florida real estate experience!
I had spoken with Kathy a few years back when she sold my neighbors home and when I was ready, I reached back out. As you know, Kathy has a great reputation in West Bradenton for good reason, she knows the important factors and guides you along the way with very honest feedback. I enjoyed working with her team, they were all professional and attentive.The only concern, negative was that unfortunately some of the realtors did not securely lock the home and/or leave it as they found it after showing. Nothing happened as a result, but that is an area of mention.Your company is so well regarded in our area, thanks to you, I will always consider recommending /referring and or utilizing your services in the future.
At a time when I needed compassion and understanding, Kathy Valente of Michael Saunders & Company entered my life. She sold my condo and became a good friend. How lucky you are to have her on your team.
My sales associates Kathy Valente and Gregory Zies truly provided me with the exceptional service Michael Saunders & Company strives to achieve. Kathy was extremely communicative throughout the entire process and was always available whenever I reached out to her. Gregory was wonderful, showing the property on time with each request. On moving day, we had a deadline to meet for the final walkthrough by the new owners at 1pm. I had to leave at 11am for an unexpected doctor's visit, and also had to contend with another two set-backs regarding the cleaning crew and carpet cleaners. In my absence, during this crucial time, Gregory arrived early, went above and beyond, came to the rescue and worked diligently, helping my daughter prepare the condo for the walkthrough. I am extremely happy to report that your team in Bradenton surpassed my expectations of exceptional service.
I can say it all in a few words. A1 FIRST CLASS !! Thank you Kathy and Gregory. Beatrice.
Kathy has been easy to work with and has always taken the extra step to make sure our rental has been everything she had promised.
Thank you Kathy! Kathy is the best of the best. A long story but buying or selling a home is one of the most important investments we make, well worth your time to read this testimony from me and why I would want the best realtor and Kathy would be the person. Kathy sold my home for me. Here is my story and she rates an A+ with me. Here is why. First I am older and live in California. I have been around the block in selling a home buying a home. I know realtors, hard to find a realtor like Kathy. First my mother passed, I had moved my mother to California renting her home out, sad to say bad tenant to clean up from. Then a few months later my son was killed. I was a mess on overload. Hired Kathy to sell mom's home. Figured another stress time adding to my life. The opposite with Kathy. I was so blessed. She was profession, respectful of my situation, yes business but added such care, honesty and treated me as though I was a family member. The best part she suggested getting an inspector in checking out the home. Hired the best contractor to do all the repairs. We had offers but had issues with final inspections. This way I knew the problems, had them all fixed. She called, texted me constantly with up dates. She suggested things to help me in selling the home but always honest for me and prospective buyer. We finally get an offer the buyer's realtor was awful. Didn't meet deadlines, lagged on everything but yet Kathy basically did that realtors work and her own for me. Kept me grounded, I was ready to walk away from offer so fed up with the buyers realtor but Kathy kept us all grounded, I don't think buyer knew how much their relator was not doing. Almost loosing in getting this home. Kathy took calls from buyer's realtor late into the night trying to meet late deadlines that the other realtor was creating. Kathy should have received the other realtors commission too. The house closed thanks to Kathy. She was on top of contracts, deadlines went way beyond her responsibilities. Explained everything to me. Kathy makes it more than business she makes it personal. Believe me, either selling or buying a house there are only a few realtors like Kathy. Time is money with realtors but Kathy never looked at time, she takes care of her clients again like you are her family.
Kathy and her assistant Greg are very professional and helpful in every way!
It was a pleasure meeting and dealing with Kathy, who, obviously, would receive a 5 - star rating! Thank you, Kathy!
Excellent Experience
Kathy is not only a friend of mine but always has our best interest in mind when my husband and I we were house searching in the local Bradenton area. Kathy is very knowledgeable of the particular area we were looking into buying in and she is well informed and experienced with the area we were searching in . Kathy is a wonderful resource for things we needed afterwards , had great ideas, and gave us a lot of very useful information even after our home purchase! Kathy was very flexible when it was time to look at homes for they were selling very quickly when we were house shopping. I could call Kathy at a late notice to look at a prospective home to buy and she never told me NO!,, Kathy is amazing at her job!!!!
Above and beyond in every aspect -- she is a true professional with a relaxed, let's do it, attitude.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the dedication, diligence and tenacity of Kathy Valente. Her communication skills and devotion have been remarkable. She has tirelessly pursued several difficult real estate transactions for me in the last several years (which would exhaust any mere mortal) that has taken her into a long international odyssey. I think this may qualify her as international ambassador agent of the year! She always stayed cool and calm throughout our many communications, and displayed a wonderful willingness, warmth and sense of humor throughout it all. She is definitely special and one of a kind, and deserves all my compliments and admiration. With much gratitude and appreciation to all at Michael Saunders & Company. Thank you!
Very knowledgeable and professional. Enjoy working with her. I would readily recommend her to my friends and relatives.
Kathy Valente is a great realtor and so very professional. As of this year , 2017 she has sold two properties for me. She did everything she said she would do and more. Always available to take my calls or return calls. I would recommend Kathy to anyone that is looking to sell or buy to definitely consider Kathy. You will not be disappointed.
