Kate Works

Kate was the best, after working with a realtor who didn't listen to our needs and just kept showing us properties that didn't fit what we were looking for we finally got fed up and just moved on. I found a listing Kate had put on zillow and contacted her and she was able to show us the house that same day. We loved the home and she helped us with every step of the process. She was very attentive and answered all of our questions promptly, unlike many other realtors we worked with. She wasn't pushy and was a gem to work with. I would recommend her to all of my friends and family. We were lucky to have found her.

We first met with Kate and Lina over two years ago when we started tossing around the idea of moving. We looked at a few houses and decided to hold off. In early September 2020 we got in touch with Kate and set up an appointment. She was just as pleasant as the first time around and came with comps and a whole marketing plan to sell our home of 32 years. We decided to use Douglas Elliman and Kate for the purchase of a new home as well. We listed our home on a Wednesday and by Sunday had 10 offers over selling price! Selling and purchasing at the same time is extremely stressful. We had some glitches along with way with our purchase and Kate was there to calm us (me!) down, mediate and get us through it all! She was always available by phone or text and we highly recommend contacting her if you are planning to buy or sell, or both! Thanks again Kate!

Kate was honestly the best part of our process. As an LGBTQ+ couple buying in Long Island we felt so taken care of by her. She was super responsive to everything that we asked of her and more. Her extensive knowledge of Long Island and the home buying process made this journey so incredibly smooth. We used the NACA program and were initially quite worried about finding a realtor, but Kate agreed to work with us without even blinking. We provided her with our wants and needs and she came through with multiple houses and listings that fit our aesthetic. Anytime we had a question she replied INSTANTLY... which in this business we found to be extremely important for the process to move forward. Without Kate, it would have been likely our deal would have fallen through. We are truly grateful for her help! As first time home buyers she educated us through every step and reassured us when we were feeling a bit antsy about the process. We could not recommend her any more! If you are looking for someone look no further that KATE! We love her and if we were to do it all over again we would 100% go with her.

Kate was recommended by my brother in law, she helped him and his family buy their 1st home. We found a home that we loved and put an offer in, but we continued to look at other homes because it wasn't looking in our favor that we would get that home. For some reason Kate kept saying no worries guys I have a good feeling. And Kate was right, she called on a Wednesday at like 7pm and told us the seller accepted our offer. Bammmm and we went under contract and 44 days later we closed. From all the stories I hear 1 st time buying can be a challenging, Kate and her team made it great. thanks again, LIFE CHANGING

Experience speaks volumes - Nothing short of excellence! Dealing with Kate and Lina was an absolute pleasure. We were so impressed with how personable, friendly, kind and knowledgeable they are! As first time home buyers we were nervous and unsure of what to expect. Kate and Lina laid it all on the table and explained how every step of the way would work and even followed it up with Kate's famous "step by step" packet which went over in detail with what would come next! They never left us wondering, at any time of day or night if we called or text them, we would have answers within minutes! Their knowledge about all the different areas we were looking in was tremendous and extremely helpful! It allowed us to pick the perfect location and the perfect house! We are so grateful to have dealt with such amazing people! They are not just your real estate agents, they become your friends and ALWAYS look out for your best interests rather than just trying to push you to make a sale. They also followed up after we closed to make sure we were happy and to remind us about taking advantage of the star discount on our taxes! If you work with Kate and Lina, you will never be disappointed! Thank you Kate and Lina!!!! A+++++ 10 STARS!!!Wayne & Ashley

We are first time home buyers, and had no idea where to start. Kate met with us early in our home buying process, and not only was she our realtor, she was able to get us in touch with a great loan officer/lender as well. Kate advised us to get working with him first and then we'd go house shopping. We were able to be pre approved for our mortgage, and in this crazy seller's market, this gave us an advantage over other people who were in the market. Kate was fast to respond to questions, and also walked us through all processes involved in home buying. We looked at multiple houses, and while supportive of all, she was able to supply us with her opinions on properties and what we might want to look for. We missed a few homes we liked due to timing, with other buyers beating us out with offers. This was a bit discouraging. Kate, however was constantly emailing us new listings in the area and we found a house listed the day before, so new it didn't even have a sign out front yet. We were able to view the home that weekend, and made a written offer immediately on it. This home was perfect for us, and exactly what we were looking for. We were also in a lease when home shopping, and needed to work with the timing of the end of our lease, which she was able to negotiate clearly with the other realtor and sellers. Thanks to Kate Works and Lina Lopes we were able to get our dream home! I know how cliche that sounds, but its true. Thank you Kate for getting us here!

It was a great pleasure working with Kate as she took me around, showing me homes and also helped me throughout the home purchase process. As a first time home buyer, Kate made every step in the process smooth and easy to understand. She was great at keeping in touch with me as well as answering all my questions promptly. She even went out of her way to recommend reputable loan officer, home inspector, attorney,,,etc. I was able to close the loans very quickly in a timely manner. I recommend her a million times because of her high level of professionalism. Thank you so much Kate, I truly appreciate!! You are awesome!

Kate was such a pleasure to work with! Throughout the entire process she never left us hanging or with an unanswered question. She showed up every time with a smile even though we had her driving us all over the island to see multiple homes until we found the perfect one. From the 1st time we met her we explained to her our wants/needs, knowing it was literally a needle in a haystack pretty much she still accepted and assured us she would help us find it. With a wonderful personality and truly amazing patience Kate found us our dream home. I have and will continue to recommend Kate to anyone looking to purchase a home. I promise you will not be disappointed!
