MaryBeth has been an incredible support throughout our real estate journey. She truly cares about her clients, and it shows in everything she does. She patiently and expertly guided us through the many ups and downs of searching and was always professional, supportive, and kind. When it came time to sell our home, her expertise and dedication made the process seamless, and the results far exceeded our expectations. Her attention to detail and unwavering commitment truly set her apart. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Colleen Lawrence to sell our Apex, NC home of the last 25 years, and we cannot recommend her and the entire team at Linda Trevor and Company of Compass highly enough. From start to finish, Colleen was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to achieving the best outcome for us.
Colleen provided invaluable advice and assistance on prepping and staging our home, pricing it competitively to maximize exposure and offers, and navigating the multiple-offer situation in which we found ourselves. When we needed vendors quickly, no problem. Colleen has a quality vendor for everything your home needs, and they are all affordable. Her attention to detail and commitment to communication ensured that we were informed and comfortable every step of the way. At first the list of "to do's" to get ready for listing seemed overwhelming, but Colleen was there asking "What can I do to help?", and each and every time she delivered!
Thanks to Colleen's expertise, our home generated 10 offers within 48 hours, and sold quickly and for a fantastic price which was WELL above asking price. If you're looking for a realtor who truly cares about their clients and delivers exceptional results, look no further than Colleen Lawrence.
Linda and her staff were excellent. Although we were just beginning our search for promising regions, she gave us valuable and insightful information in purchasing a home in North Carolina. We would heartily recommend her agency.
Linda Trevor and her team worked together with us to sell our house quickly from beginning to end. We highly recommend them!
We had a great experience working with Linda and her team. Linda is extraordinarily responsive, getting us into the homes we wanted to see without any issues. She was very organized and helpful with the negotiation and closing processes, guiding us every step of the way as we were not used to the way things are done in North Carolina. We are very happy with the way things turned out and we love our new home! Linda and her team are fantastic and highly recommended.
Great experience with Linda Trevor and her team. she has helped us and many other friends and they are all very pleased. Definitely recommend her.
Colleen helped me buy two homes and sell one. Each time the process was seamless, I didn't experience any stress in what is typically a very stressful process! She communicated clearly, answered my phone calls, text messages and emails within minutes and expressed calm and patience throughout the process. It is rare to find a real estate agent who walks into a crawl space with heels on looking for all of the possible problems in the most gross of places. But she did! And negotiated on my behalf with toughness and elegance! I've certainly heard some horror stories, but you will only find calm with Colleen by your side!
Colleen was incredibly helpful throughout the entire home buying experience.
Thorough, patient, intelligent, informative, professional. Handled complicated situation diplomatically.
Anyone even thinking about real estate in this region should contact her first! Would highly recommend her and her agency without hesitation.
Colleen is nothing short of extraordinary, and choosing her to represent you is the easiest and best decision you can make. Colleen is truly one-of-a-kind, and having her as your realtor is an absolute game-changer. If you want the very best, look no further. Choosing Colleen to represent us was, without question, the best decision we made during our home-buying journey. She went above and beyond at every turn during our new construction build, which also happened to be our first home. From our very first meeting, we knew we were in the best possible hands. Colleen’s genuine nature, deep knowledge, and unwavering trustworthiness were immediately apparent, and we cannot imagine having gone through this process without her.
Colleen truly excels in every aspect of her work. She offered thoughtful advice, made fantastic recommendations, and answered every one of our (endless) questions with patience and clarity. She fought for us, negotiated expertly on our behalf, and made sure that our interests were always the top priority. Her ability to navigate challenges and advocate for us made us feel secure and confident every step of the way. Colleen’s dedication, kindness, and expertise are unmatched, making her a once-in-a-lifetime realtor.
There is no one like her—she is an extraordinary realtor and an extraordinary person. She cares deeply about her clients and treats their dreams like her own. We recommend her with the highest possible praise to anyone seeking not only a skilled professional but a genuine partner in their journey. If you want someone who will go to the ends of the earth to make your dream a reality, Colleen is the realtor you need.
Thank you for everything, Colleen—you are simply the best!
Mark and I have been so pleased with the superlative service provided to us by Linda Trevor and her team. From the initial interview with Linda throughout the entire transaction, every step was already anticipated and answers provided. Linda has a team member ready to handle every phase of the transaction. They were even willing to come to our home while we were out of town to ensure that every showing was perfect. We have been through many home sales and this one was by far the easiest and most professionally executed transaction! Their response time to questions was so quick and thorough and the attention to detail was really amazing. They made our job so easy. We would highly recommend Linda Trevor and her team to anyone ready to buy or sell. Outstanding performance!
Linda Trevor & Co. provided outstanding service. Linda is extremely knowledgeable and patient, she and her team helped me through the selection and purchase of my new home after I relocated. Carla was very responsive throughout the home buying process. Her knowledge and attention to detail were invaluable to close the deal on my new home.
As first-time home buyers navigating a challenging and often overwhelming market, we cannot express enough how much we appreciated Cathy’s expertise and unwavering support throughout the entire process. From our very first interaction, she was not only a consummate professional but also a genuinely friendly person. She made herself readily available to answer our questions and her responsiveness was remarkable. Whenever we wanted to arrange viewings, Cathy was incredibly quick and efficient, ensuring that we never missed out on potential opportunities.
Cathy went above and beyond in providing us with a wealth of knowledge that proved invaluable as we made our way through the complexities of home buying. She has immaculate attention to detail, is always on top of everything, responds immediately, and goes above and beyond. She covered a broad spectrum of topics, from the general aspects of purchasing a home to more specific details that we had not even considered, such as a property’s history, building material and potential issues. Additionally, she provided us with repair cost estimates and renovation ideas, which were crucial in helping us envision the potential of each property we viewed.
In summary, our experience with Cathy was nothing short of exceptional. Her combination of professionalism, friendliness, and extensive knowledge made our home-buying journey not only manageable but also enjoyable. We recommend Cathy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her dedication and expertise will undoubtedly make a positive impact on your real estate experience, just as it did for us.
I've worked with Linda and her team for 20+ years professionally. I recently had them help me with a personal transaction and they were simply amazing. They proactively managed the process and our builder on my behalf and really made the buying experience super easy. Would highly recommend them for any RE need!
I highly recommend Linda and her team to anyone that has any real estate needs. Their professionalism and responsiveness is unmatched. We had a very complicated land purchase deal, and their experience was invaluable in navigating from start to finish. We plan on using them when we sell our home and in our future plans to develop the land we purchased.
Working with Colleen was such a joy! She was always quick to respond to me when I had questions and I knew she had my best interest at heart. She was not going to settle for something that wasn't a great fit for me. I trusted her opinion throughout the entire process. I am beyond thrilled with the purchase I made and I could not have done it without Colleen's advice and support along the way!
What a great, friendly agent! She made it possible for me to purchase my house within a very tight time frame, and took time to drive me around to look at other areas that were similar to what I ultimately bought. I highly recommend her services!
Simply the best! This is my 3rd experience with their team. Wonderful.
Linda and her team were extremely helpful throughout the entire selling process of our home. They were great from our initial consultation to evaluate the appropriate list price of our home, to staging, and showing the property. They were able to give us the best advice that ultimately led to the sale of our house within the first weekend it was on the market. Linda was great in helping us navigate the negotiation process with multiple offers, due diligence, and final closing. Her team was always extremely quick to respond to our questions and easy to work with.
I would definitely recommend Linda and her team to anyone buying or selling a home in the triangle!
I had the pleasure of working with Linda Trevor as part of a recent transaction where she represented the buyer, who was also a client of mine. From a lender's perspective, it was evident that Linda is exceptional at what she does. She not only demonstrated a deep understanding of the real estate market but also went above and beyond to advocate for her client's interests.
Her attention to detail and proactive approach ensured a smooth transaction process, which made my job significantly easier. What truly stood out, however, was the clear personal relationship she has with her clients. Her genuine care and dedication were evident in every interaction, reflecting her commitment to not just meeting but exceeding her clients' expectations.
It’s rare to encounter a real estate agent who combines professionalism with such a personal touch. I highly recommend Linda for anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her dedication to her clients is unparalleled and truly enhances the overall real estate experience.
Linda Trevor was an exceptional partner in our journey to purchase our first home. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a deep understanding of the Raleigh-Durham market and guided us through every step with professionalism and care. Her attention to detail and responsiveness made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Linda was always available to answer our questions, provide valuable insights, and advocate for our best interests. Her expertise was especially evident during negotiations and the final closing, ensuring that everything was handled seamlessly. Thanks to Linda, we found the perfect home and navigated the complex buying process with confidence. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-tier real estate agent.
Linda Trevor & Co. was highly recommended to us by an accomplished person for whom we have much respect. We took that recommendation and have never regretted it. Linda guided us in every aspect of the entire process. She understood why we were selling and how we wanted to accomplish it. This was important in establishing the asking price and determining the set of tasks or improvements that would lead to success with the sale. She even made arrangements to get the tasks handled in a timely fashion at fair prices. Her marketing efforts worked a miracle. There were multiple offers on the day it was listed and the sale closed in thirty days. Her team guided us through the entire process, keeping us informed of all activity every step of the way. Linda Trevor & Co. is a great real estate firm.
Colleen is the best realtor we have ever worked with! If you are thinking about listing or buying with her do not hesitate to do so. She has immaculate attention to detail, is always on top of everything, responds immediately, and goes above and beyond. My husband and I were navigating a challenging move purchasing new construction from out of state and we had a new baby so travel was limited, and Colleen made the process so easy and pleasant for us. We plan to work with her again on our next move and will recommend her to anyone!
Linda and her team have been absolutely fantastic to work with. From our first phone call to now weeks after closing, they have been communicative and helpful throughout the entire home-buying process. My wife and I would recommend their team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Triangle!
My husband and I recently moved back to the Raleigh area after a decade away. I initially spoke with several agents, and decided to work with Colleen due to the knowledge and expertise she demonstrated from our first conversation. Since the area has changed so much in the years we have been away, we prioritized working with an agent who would be honest and upfront about areas surrounding any property we were interested in. We also wanted to work with a responsive agent, as we were buying from out of state so communication could be more tricky. Finally, we were looking for an agent with a critical eye since we came into town to tour homes and could not come back in until our close date, so we would need to make the most of our far between opportunities to see properties. Colleen went above and beyond in all aspects, from setting up tours through and beyond our close date. She listened to what we were looking for in both a home and community, and introduced us to an area we had not previously considered where we ended up purchasing our home. She attended our inspection in our absence, and quickly and throughly answered any questions that came up. Colleen guided us smoothly through the entire process, and we could not be happier with our experience. I have already recommended Colleen to a friend looking to buy a home in the area, and will do so for years to come!
In all honesty, this was my first home purchase and I don’t know what a bad realtor is but I do know what made my purchase process a painless procedure. It was the powerhouse by the name of Colleen Lawrence. When I tell you she took care of every question and/or concern I had , I sincerely mean she took her time and carefully made sure she was giving accurate and accountable information. I couldn’t have imagined buying a home would be such a pleasure. From viewing different homes, to getting in touch with builders; she truly had expert advice and knowledge when it came to making the right choice for those big decisions. It is my hope that anyone to everyone who is in the market to purchase their first or their fourth property investment will consider Colleen and her team to get them on the right path and get those beautiful keys to their new dream home. From me and Emma , we greatly appreciate her services, from the bottom of our hearts.
Colleen, picked up the phone every time! She made time to answer our questions. Her responses were always succinct and helpful. She places value on time and energy. And so my husband and I encourage all future buyers to call Colleen for support in buying their next home!
Working with Linda and Carla to sell our home was just a wonderful experience! We have used them in the past for other home buying and selling and knew we could count on them again for their knowledge, expertise, professionalism and overall great customer experience. They know the Raleigh and surrounding area market well and would highly recommend them.
We cannot say enough about the level of commitment, professionalism, and quality of service we received from MaryBeth Weber and her entire team! From day one, they all exceeded our expectations! Our home sold quickly and well above asking price with multiple offers! The best decision we made was contacting Marybeth at Linda Trevor Realty to sell our home!
Colleen was amazing! She is so knowledgable, available and takes her time with every accept of the home buying process. She has an eye to see the little things that we missed. She truly is the best in the area and I would recommend her to anyone!
MaryBeth is a fantastic realtor! She is an absolute delight to work with while being very responsive and timely. She took such great care of me while I sold my first home. Her guidance was spot-on, and having her in my corner made all the difference! I highly and enthusiastically recommend working with her.
Working with Colleen has been a fantastic experience, both when buying my home and recently selling it. Her great communication and quick responsiveness stood out throughout both processes.
When purchasing, Colleen and her team were incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire experience smooth and seamless. When it came time to sell, her expert advice and effective marketing led to a quick sale at a great price.
I highly recommend Colleen for her professionalism, expertise, and dedication. She made both the buying and selling process enjoyable and stress-free.
Colleen is an absolute joy to work with, and she is knowledgeable, resourceful and one of the most competent persons and realtors you will meet. We have been fortunate to work with her twice now, both as buyers and sellers. You cannot ask for a more suited and able agent than Colleen; she’s exemplary and the utmost professional. She goes above and beyond for her clients, and all of it feels personal and important. There is a true sense of trust and friendship with her, and Colleen will always be there for you, and will always have your best interests at heart, be it as a seller or buyer. She is the epitome of what every real estate professional ought to be.
We moved to North Carolina from out-of-state, and Colleen guided us every step of the way. She listened to our concerns, understood our "wish list" (even as it changed over time), and answered every question we asked (and we asked a lot of them!). Colleen will let you know what's going to happen, why it happens, and when it will happen. She is competent, professional, and personable... very easy to get along with, and just a nice person to spend time with. And, she is very responsive; always answering our texts or emails immediately or within an hour or two. Overall, we cannot recommend Colleen enough!
Colleen was incredible. We are first time home buyers and I am so thankful we had her on our side during this process. She was honest, guided us through making an offer, made sure we felt comfortable with any decisions we were making and was always responsive. She goes above and beyond whether it’s crawling through crawl spaces or doing a thorough walk through, she does so much more than just showing a house, and for that we are so thankful. From start to finish, she was incredible to work with and we couldn’t be more happy with the house we ended up with!
Colleen found our dream house in our favorite neighborhood and at a price we could barely believe. She helped us shop for two years and never gave up or failed to drop everything to show us a house. She made the process fun and efficient. Her expert advice was invaluable, without her we would have never found our new home. We are forever grateful.
Colleen was absolutely amazing as our buyers agent. We were relocating to North Carolina and prior to us moving she was always willing to give us advice and take us on virtual tours at a moments notice. She was an true advocate for us throughout the buying process and made sure we fully understood all our options given we were first time home buyers. She helped us find our forever home in Cary and we couldn't be happier.
Colleen found our dream house in our favorite neighborhood and at a price we could barely believe. She helped us shop for two years and never gave up or failed to drop everything to show us a house. She made the process fun and efficient. Her expert advice was invaluable, without her we would have never found our new home. We are forever grateful.
We had an absolutely fabulous experience with Colleen! It's very rare to find a true buyer's agent these days, and Colleen was incredible. She was so patient with us (in this horrific market!) and we never felt rushed. She knew our style and helped to identify the perfect neighborhood and perfect home for us. We never would have considered the area if it wasn't for her. Once our offer was accepted, we had to flip our home for sale in record time. Colleen and her team didn't miss a beat - I can't imagine going through the process with anyone else! It went over asking with multiple offers, with a smooth closing process. Moving is never easy, but you'll be in great hands with Colleen.
We worked with Colleen for an out of state move and she was fantastic to work with during the whole process! She gave us a lot of information on the surrounding cities and did a great job helping us find areas that were a great fit for us. She even went to showings and Facetimed us to see if it was worth us driving in from out of town. Every time we came in for the weekend, she was always prepared with the listings and a tour sheet for us, which made it really easy for us to follow. She made herself available when we had questions, she was a great professional, and helped us negotiate and buy the home that we wanted! Thank you so much Colleen!
I have never met a realtor company that gives back so much to their customers. They are amazing, caring, and thoughtful. I would strongly encourage you to use them for your next purchase of a home or your next sale of a home.
Choosing Cathy as our realtor was the best decision we could have made. She’s knowledgeable about the market and knows what to look for in the homes themselves (she will literally crawl into the crawl space to check it for you!), making the process much easier on us as first time home buyers moving from out of state. She is incredibly kind, quick to respond and was more than generous with her time from the very beginning - we could not be more thankful to her for making our first home purchase such a seamless experience. If you're looking for a realtor, look no further than Cathy!
Colleen is an exceptional agent who really knows her stuff! She helped provided honest feedback every step of the way and was extremely responsive. I strongly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first time buyers!
My husband and I loved working with MaryBeth to buy our recent home in Raleigh! She was extremely responsive, honest, and fun to work with. We definitely recommend!
Linda and her team did an OUTSTANDING job helping us sell our home. Linda is a highly experienced realtor, a consummate professional, and was extremely knowledgeable with our home selling geography. All of this experience shows in every aspect of the property selling lifecycle which resulted in a selling experience and outcome that exceeded our expectations. From our initial discussions about a selling strategy and plan for our home to the preparation, staging, photography, listing, showing, and ultimate sale of our home, Linda and her team were on top of everything. Linda has an excellent team of people supporting her including Tatum (staging), Sally (photography), Carla (closing/settlement), and others that were also very responsive and attentive to every detail in our selling process. The bottom line here is that we could not have made a better choice than Linda Trevor & Co. to help us sell our home. We highly recommend her and her team to anyone who needs to buy or sell a home!
We can not thank Cathy enough for all her help in buying our first new home! She treated us more like family than clients. From the start till after closing Cathy was always there to assist and answer any questions, along with always communicating everything that was going on. Even when unexpected issues showed up the whole team worked together to make the transition as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend using Cathy when buying a home.
We’ve never written a review endorsing any service or product. But we feel compelled to write this review, because Linda Trevor and her team at Linda Trevor & Company, Compass Realty is the best realtor we have ever worked with ! And, we’ve worked with a lot of realtors in the course of buying and selling seventeen houses in six states, and we have very high standards and have worked with some excellent realtors.
Linda is a savvy appraiser of real estate value and a skilled negotiator of the terms of sale; she also has the taste, creativity, talent and resources to build a sales campaign to make your house the one that buyers want.
In addition to being so professionally accomplished, Linda is a pleasure to work with. She is always available to take your calls, and her team provides all the information a buyer needs going through a purchase. Linda has a unique “what to expect next” package for buyers which tells them all they need to know and everything they need to do, and when they need to do it, as they approach closing. We believe it’s a “best practice” that all realtors should follow, yet in 17 house purchases we’ve never seen another realtor with anything similar. Linda also has a list of “trusted suppliers/contractors”, which relieves buyers new to an area of the burden of finding and vetting contractors for home maintenance when they take ownership. Another Linda first !
Beyond Linda’s qualifications, Linda’s team is also “best in class”, ready to assist with anything a buyer or seller needs. One of Linda’s associates attended our pre-closing home inspection and she found more items that required “touch-up” than we or the inspector did (and we’re picky). And, when we couldn’t attend the pre-closing walk-through, Linda’s associate attended for us and ensured that all repairs on the “punch-list” had been completed satisfactorily.
Linda Trevor & Company, Compass Realty has our unreserved endorsement.
Colleen artfully helped us secure a property long distance and she was fabulously patient and knowledgeable about the area and all of the details necessary as we negotiated, inspected, measured, etc. She is a very sweet, genuine and friendly agent but also confident and methodical. Her support team was prompt and professional as well and we thoroughly enjoyed working with the entire team. We highly recommend Colleen for your property purchase in the greater Raleigh area.
We have now had the pleasure of working with Colleen twice (both buying and then selling with 4 years in between) and so glad we did! We closed on selling our home last week and the entire process was so smooth just as it was when she was our realtor as buyers. From initially letting Colleen know that we were considering selling our home in Fuquay so we could move to the beach full-time, she watched the market and guided us on the best time to pull the trigger. She helped with recommending any minor updates to get our home ready to put on the market in order to get the most value. Her pricing strategy was amazing, she really knows the area and the market. As she solidly predicted, we were able to get multiple offers above asking price. The marketing and staging that she helped coordinate was top notch and without her guidance through the entire process, we would not have done as well with the sale as we did. Also, her communication is great, if I had any questions, didn't matter day or time, she was always so responsive and informative. If you are looking for a realtor in this area, look no further, Colleen is it!
Colleen was an absolute gem to work with. She is extremely professional, and goes above and beyond. My husband and I used Colleen’s services to purchase our house, and to sell it 5 years later. In purchasing our house, she was honest about pointing out any flaws she saw, we may have missed.
In the sale of our house, she addressed items we needed to change in order to have a quick and profitable outcome. Her team was excellent and professional. A stager assisted with our home for the professional photographs. The office staff kept us in the loop every step of the way. We sold our house in one weekend for more than our asking price! Colleen is extremely trustworthy in every aspect, a true professional!
From the very first moment my wife and I met Colleen, we felt very confident that she would be a great fit for us in our house hunt. We are from California, and wanted to move to Wake Forest as soon as possible. By Colleen taking us on she was tasked with not only an extremely high level of planning and coordination, but a limited amount of time and a very particular scope to fit the needs of our family in our search for a new home. Colleen made it feel seamless. She went above and beyond by having the listings prepared for us, coordinating open houses within our schedule and taxi’ing us throughout the county looking for a house. She knew which neighborhoods and homes might suite us best and which might not. She even picked us up snd dropped us off at the airport! She displayed professionalism, honesty, and courtesy. Now we are currently in our new, beautiful home and without her efforts it could not have been done. Thank you, Colleen!
We were incredibly fortunate to work with Colleen to purchase our new home. Being new to the area, Colleen’s extensive knowledge about the Triangle Area was instrumental in our search to find the right home in the right neighborhood. Colleen found everything on our wish list and more within our budget. We could not be more pleased with our new home! Colleen is a joy to work with a great personality and we appreciated her eye for detail. Colleen was easily reachable and answered our many questions with confidence promptly. Colleen made the entire process from the search to closing seamless and made us feel at ease. We could not have done this without her, and we would not want to! We enjoyed working with Colleen and we will recommend her to our friends and family.
Linda Trevor & Company are the VERY best at what they do. She has developed a STRONG Team that have a role in getting your home sold quickly. Ours sold in 7 days is great considering we lived a specialized market 55 & older. They use a tool Home by ShowingTime. It signals me to accept, reject or change any potential buyer’s time they wish to see my home. I was totally in control of any Buyer’s request to see my home. So, there were no surprise visits or phone calls.
Their marketing is beyond anything I could have imagined! The pictures that were taken for the Listing & Brochure were Top Notch. I cannot say it enough what a presence each and every Team member played in the sell of my house. They are bonded and each person knows what is expected of their task. It was well orchestrated by their Leader. Linda Trevor. Without a doubt you can tell they have been unified working together as a Team.
In closing, I would highly recommend Linda Trevor & Co if you are selling or purchasing a home. There was never a doubt did I wonder if I made the right selection for my realtor. I sang their praises to everyone in our neighborhood. By the way, we developed a Higher Comp in our neighborhood. Give them a call or message you will not be disappointed.
MaryBeth was an incredible partner to work with and made the home buying process a pleasant one. She was knowledgeable of the area as well as the builders and provided me with information about the properties we toured. Our line of communication was always open with her willingness to answer all of my questions plus check in with me on a regular basis. She was kind, prompt, honest, and insightful which made her the perfect person to lead the effort of finding my new home.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Colleen and her team, for the 2nd time, to sell our home, and we couldn't be more impressed with the level of professionalism and dedication they brought to the process. From start to finish, Colleen, Tatum, and Carla worked seamlessly together to ensure a smooth and successful sale. Colleen's expertise and experience in the real estate market were evident from our first meeting years ago. She takes the time to thoroughly explain the selling process, answer all questions, and provide valuable insights into the current market conditions. Throughout the entire process, Colleen maintained open and transparent communication, keeping us informed every step of the way. Her knowledge and guidance were invaluable. Tatum, the staging expert on Colleen's team, worked wonders. Her keen eye for design and attention to detail truly made a difference in showcasing the property's best features. Tatum's staging not only enhanced the overall appeal of the home but also played a significant role in attracting potential buyers. In addition to Colleen and Tatum, Carla played a crucial role in the behind-the-scenes operations. Her efficiency and organization made the paperwork process a breeze. Carla ensured that all necessary documents were completed accurately and on time, alleviating any stress or confusion on our part. Together, Colleen, Tatum, and Carla make an exceptional team that goes above and beyond for their clients. We are incredibly grateful for their hard work and dedication and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of real estate services. Thank you, Colleen and team, for exceeding our expectations and helping us achieve a successful sale in record time!
Colleen was the absolute best realtor to work with! This was my first time buying a home and I could not have imagined going through the process with anyone else. She walked me through the whole process and made sure she was involved every step of the way. She always made time for any questions I had and with her extensive knowledge and experience I always got an in depth answer. She also has a great network of lenders, inspectors and attorneys that allowed the entire process so happen so seamlessly.
I just can’t put into words how wonderful Linda & her team have been. I am listing my house, and from the moment she came to view my property, I knew she was the REAL DEAL. I’m so thankful for their expertise and knowledge of the industry, and again, thank you for all of your hard work. I am excited to see what the future holds! Thanks Linda!!
This was our second time working with Colleen and her team. They are all kind, professional and completely on top of every step of the home selling/buying process. We highly recommend Colleen and her team!
Linda is super knowledgeable of the area and great at understanding what her customers are looking for! She explains everything thoroughly!
Only one word comes to me when I think of Linda Trevor & Co. That word is: PERFECTION! My family put our house on the market late December 2023, right before Christmas, and it sold early January 2024. The consultation, staging for the professional pictures, and the timely emails and phone calls were handled so professionally and were very time efficient. I'm very certain that working with her team would be in your best interest if you're debating it. Go for it! Thanks Linda Trevor & Co.
We were first time home buyers and felt pretty overwhelmed going into the home buying process. Cathy immediately made us feel at ease and so supported! She is knowledgeable, patient, flexible, kind, and personable. She helped us feel confident and informed every step of the way. We highly recommend her and feel so fortunate to have worked with her.
Expert advice. Linda & team got our parent’s home under contract in 3 days with multiple offers over ask. She insisted on staging & that was 100% the reason we were so successful. In addition, she helped with other aspects to get the home prepped for sale & then closing.
MaryBeth was an absolute dream to work with. It had been awhile since I was in the market to purchase a home and she took her time to educate me on the latest market trends in the area, and things to look out for. Her dedication to her clients goes beyond the sale/closing, as she has even offered to assist me with home decor. MaryBeth truly cares about her clients.
Linda Trevor helped us sell and buy homes in the Cary and Apex. She and her team are outstanding. They are honest, knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly they get the job done! I would highly recommend Linda Trevor and her team to anyone needing real estate services.
Absolutely the best realtor, period. Knowledgeable, personable and very professional. Offers excellent research and advice. Easy to work with. You can't do any better.
Great to work with, very knowledgeable and experienced. She made the home buying process seamless and enjoyable!
I can't thank Colleen enough for her outstanding service. From our initial meeting to closing, she demonstrated professionalism and a genuine commitment to my needs. What stood out was her proactive communication and ability to navigate complexities effortlessly. Colleen made the entire home-buying process enjoyable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and knowledgeable realtor...her deep knowledge of the market and attention to detail made the entire process smooth. She was always available to answer questions, and her negotiation skills were impressive. I felt confident in every decision, and the end result exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend Colleen for a seamless and positive real estate experience!
Colleen was absolutely amazing to work with! My wife and I were first time home buyers, and Colleen took the time to explain the process step by step. She was more than willing to meet at any time and view homes with us. She also knows exactly what to look for in a home and mentions things that would concern her. We ended up finding the perfect home and couldn’t be more than happy with her and her experience!
MaryBeth is AWESOME! Moving across country is a lot of work in itself. Trying to acclimate to a new city and find the right house in the right area is even more taxing. MaryBeth has the perfect demeanor for her job. She was patient, encouraging, & thorough in pointing out potential issues in houses we toured. Whenever we emailed her questions or a list of houses that we wanted to tour, she responded quickly & completely. Simply put, she knows her stuff!
We did buy a house (our fifth house in 28 years). Look no further, call MaryBeth!
Linda Trevor and her team are knowledgeable, thoughtful, processional, trustworthy, and FUN!
Linda Trevor and her team are wonderful. Professional, knowledgeable of the area, and have been extremely easy to work with on all my real estate transactions.
Linda and her team are the Best.
She handled selling our old house and buying our new house.
100% Trust. They are the only call you need to make.
My wife and I hold the highest regard for Linda Trevor and her team.
When we decided to move, she found the perfect home for us in the perfect lcation.
Her team helped us prepare our home for sale and our home sold in 2 days. Our former home and new home closed seamlessly. From start to finish, all bases were covered and she even supplied referrals for moving companies.
Professional, friendly and one step above the rest is how I would describe Linda Trevor & Co.
I would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends, family or others who are looking for an excellent realtor when buying or selling.
Linda and her team have helped me and my wife buy 3 homes since 2007. Her expertise and dedication are second to none. Moving can be stressful - but Linda has delivered a first-class experience for us time and again. She is the only person we trust when it’s time to buy/sell!
Colleen is an excellent agent. She made herself available to show houses and answer questions all of the time. Her motto, "I just want you to be happy", was proven time and time again. Her negotiation skills on our behalf more than exceeded our expectations. Colleen was involved every step of the way and found answers to all our concerns; some before we even asked her. She is definitely on top of her game. Even after closing, she is still involved with us. I would recommend her to everyone I know.
Colleen Lawrence is the absolute best realtor we have ever worked with. It took us 14 real estate transactions before experiencing what true customer service should be, as exemplified by Colleen. We purchased our new home online and Colleen was our eyes and ears on location throughout the buying process. She is an exceptional negotiator, follows up on every detail and is a fierce advocate for her clients.
We had the pleasure of working with Linda Trevor and her dedicated team, comprised of Carla and Kim and I cannot express how grateful I am for their exceptional service.
Linda Trevor's wealth of knowledge in the real estate market and her patience is truly impressive. She exhibited a deep understanding of the local housing trends, property values, and the intricate details of the buying and selling process.
What sets Linda and her team apart is their genuine passion for their clients' satisfaction. Carla and Kim, integral members of Linda's team, complement her strengths seamlessly. We highly recommend Linda and her team and we will be working with them again.
Kiran and Bikram
Linda Trevor & Co is the epitome of excellence in real estate.
Linda and her team went above and beyond to support us throughout the home selling process, providing us with valuable insights into the market, helping us stage our home to perfection, and creating a comprehensive marketing plan that reached a wide range of potential buyers.
From Linda to Crystal to Kim to Carla, responsiveness and communication is no doubt a core value - the team was always available to answer our questions and address our concerns, keeping us informed through every step of the selling process - we truly felt like we were their top priority.
We were thrilled with the outcome, as Linda's efforts resulted in our home receiving multiple offers in just one weekend on the market! And we are confident that we would not have achieved such success without Linda Trevor & Co's expertise and guidance.
If you are looking for a Realtor who will provide you with the highest level of service and support, then look no further than Linda Trevor & Co. They are truly the best in the business!
Colleen is a true professional. Her expertise in real estate is unmatched. You will not find a better, harder working agent than Colleen.
I recently worked with Colleen to purchase my first home. She walked me through the complete process covering smallest of the details. She was very prompt and quick to respond to my emails/texts. She communicated any potential red flags with a house up for sale before we ever went to check it out in person and was always on time for any the houses we visited. She did not rush me towards making a decision. She was present for all the meetings I had with the builders and helped alleviate any concerns I had. I will recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.
Linda and her team did an outstanding job guiding us through the process of purchasing the apartment we wanted in a perfect location and at our desired price point. Linda is a true professional with in depth knowledge of the local and regional market, attentive to details and a great listener. I am sure we will work with her and the team again in the future.
We had another amazing experience with Linda and her team. We have bought and sold multiple homes with them, and we trust them implicitly with the process. The whole team has amazing attitudes and incredible work ethic. They are responsive, thorough, and thoughtful.
Linda worked with us for several years before we decided to sell. She was patient and guided us through the entire process. She is so experienced and knowledgeable and up to date on current market trends. Her and her team our fantastic, working with us from start to finish. Our home was under contract in 3 days and went for above asking price. We enthusiastically endorse and recommend Linda and team! You won't be disappointed.
Colleen went above and beyond for us and has been hands down the best realtor we've ever worked with. We moved to NC from out of state so her knowledge of the home buying and home building process was paramount. She was always quick to respond with questions or go to bat for us if any issues arose. She is who we will use in the future if we buy again, hands down.
My girlfriend and I had the absolute pleasure of working with MaryBeth for the past six months as we embarked on the journey of purchasing our new construction dream home, all while residing in a different state. From start to finish, her dedication and expertise exceeded our expectations in every way. Throughout this lengthy process, MaryBeth went above and beyond to ensure that we were well-informed and supported every step of the way. Her commitment to providing frequent updates, especially pictures of the construction progress, kept us in the loop and eased any concerns we had about being remote buyers. She was always just a phone call, text, or email away, readily available to address any questions or concerns that arose. Her guidance was invaluable, and we always felt confident in her recommendations. She demonstrated a profound understanding of our needs and preferences, helping us narrow down options that perfectly aligned with our vision. But beyond her expertise, MaryBeth possesses a warm and welcoming demeanor that made working with her an absolute pleasure. Her genuine care for her clients is evident in every interaction, and she made us feel like a priority throughout the entire process. Thanks to Marybeth's dedication and guidance, we now own our dream home. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a realtor who genuinely cares about their clients. She's a true professional in the world of real estate, and we're very grateful for her help.
It was such a huge blessing to have MaryBeth as our realtor! She was so kind, patient, responsive, and knowledgeable. We purchased our home from out of state, and Marybeth was able to easily accommodate both in person and virtual showings. We would not hesitate to recommend Marybeth or work with her again!
I can’t say enough about Linda and her team! They have helped us buy our first home and most recently helped us sell and get into a home we plan to be in for years.
It’s rare to find a team who cares about the details and performs as well as they do!
They helped stage and prepare our home which ended up having an accepted offer over our list price in less than a week!! They took all the anxiety of selling a home away quick!
Thank you Linda!
Colleen is an amazing Realtor to work with! She was extremely knowledgeable of the market, the neighborhoods in and around Raleigh and of the overall process itself. At no point did she steer us wrong and the moment we found the right one, she led us with some really insightful advice that led us to become new home owners! Cannot recommend her more!
I am very thankful to Linda and her team, they were with us at every step in buying this investment property. Easy communication and always advising us at critical steps. Their knowledge of the market was invaluable. Linda and her wonderful team (Kim and Carla) were ready to answer any queries in a prompt manner and of course we got the property that we wanted!!!! I truly can say that this is the best real estate team that I have ever dealt with.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Colleen to purchase our first home. We knew we were in good hands from our first meeting with her. Colleen took the time to truly get to know us and our needs and wants in a home and location. She also gave us a thorough rundown of purchasing a home in North Carolina, since we were relocating from across the country. Because we were relocating and had a short time to look for homes in person, we appreciated the comprehensive itinerary Colleen curated for our home search. Once we found our home, Colleen’s expertise was apparent as she assisted us in presenting a competitive offer that we were comfortable and happy with. During, and even after, our very quick remote closing, Colleen was always available to answer questions, connect us to all involved parties, and acted quickly and efficiently every step of the way. We would most definitely recommend Colleen to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Raleigh area. She’s an expert, steadfast, and kind, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience in working with her!
Colleen helped us buy our home and was a wealth of information. She is extremely knowledgable about the area and real estate. She was available day or night to answer our questions and went above and beyond. We look forward to working with Colleen on our next buy and sell. We would highly recommend her!
From the moment we reached out to Linda, her professionalism and knowledge of the local market were evident. She took the time to listen attentively to our situation. We had already moved out of state, and they took care of everything. Her expertise and guidance throughout the entire process were invaluable. To our surprise we had an offer a few days after our house went on the market.
Communication with her and her team was exceptional. They promptly returned our calls and emails, and their availability and responsiveness were truly impressive. They kept us well-informed at every step, providing regular updates and ensuring we had all the necessary information to make informed decisions. It was evident that they genuinely cared about our satisfaction and made us feel like a priority.
Their expertise was instrumental in making the entire selling process smooth and stress-free.
Not only was Linda a skilled negotiator, but she also had an extensive network of professionals who provided us with valuable recommendations for any services we needed, making the entire process seamless.
In summary, I can not speak highly enough of Linda and her team. Their expertise, professionalism, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service exceeded our expectations.Thank you, Linda, for your exemplary assistance and for making our real estate experience an absolute pleasure!
Linda Trevor is a no-nonsense true professional who has helped me list and sell 2 homes, one was under a very stressful situation. She is dedicated and knowledgeable and drives the entire process from beginning to end never wavering from her top tier professionalism. If you are selling, Linda and her team will get you top dollar for your home and her services are worth every penny of the commission. Period. I will definitely be utilizing Linda’s services on my next move and I highly recommend her team to anyone seeking assistance with their real estate needs.
Cathy was an absolute joy to work with. Not only did she help us find the home we purchased, but she really took her time to explain the process of what we were going through and made sure they no stone was left unturned. We would recommend Cathy 10/10 times and if and when we go through the home selling/buying process again. We will be using Cathy as our agent!
Two years ago we sold our house of 24 years with Colleen and after living in an apartment for 2 years we recently bought our new home with her. Whether buying or selling, we could not recommend her more highly. And when we think about our experiences of working with Colleen one thing stands out-you can trust her completely.
You can trust her to show up for you every single time. You can trust her to always be professional, genuine, and kind in both her interactions with you and in the way that she represents you through the real estate transaction. You can trust her to bring high-quality, trustworthy people alongside you every step of the process, from professionals to help you get your home ready to sell, to inspectors and mortgage lenders. And you can trust her to listen to all your questions, know or find the right answers, and ask the questions that you don’t even know to ask.
After a 2 month search we unexpectedly found the home we were looking for the week before our son’s wedding. Colleen took over from there making the time between buying and closing seamless and stress-free so that we could enjoy our time of celebrating with family and friends. There is no doubt she is a 5-star agent!
My partner and I recently had the pleasure of working with Colleen for the purchase of our first house, and I am thrilled to share our positive experience. From start to finish, she proved to be an essential resource throughout the entire process of finding and securing our new home.
No matter how trivial our questions or concerns may have seemed, Colleen always responded promptly, ensuring that we felt heard and supported throughout the entire process. This assured us that our needs were being prioritized.
Colleen’s level of expertise and knowledge in the real estate market was evident from our first meeting and we felt confident in choosing her as our agent. As first-time home buyers she walked us through the home buying timeline in detail, along with issues to look out for, and factors to consider when purchasing. Her ability to provide informative and insightful advice throughout the home buying process was truly invaluable.
What set Colleen apart was her genuine kindness and helpfulness. She was always friendly, patient, and ready to lend a helping hand. She took the time to understand our preferences and needs, ensuring that these were top of mind as we toured homes. Her positive demeanor and willingness to go the extra mile made the overall experience enjoyable. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fabulous agent.
Oh my goodness, working with Colleen was a DREAM! She is tough as nails in the negotiation piece, but so kind when it gets hard. This market is so expensive but somehow she helped us buy under list and sell over list. She is a magician for sure. Hopefully this is our forever house, but I would definitely use her again if I needed to!!!
Colleen was very efficient, and very quick to respond to all messages. Very helpful throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend working with Colleen to anyone!
We are so glad we worked with Linda Trevor and would highly recommend working with her without hesitation! Our family did a cross-country move on a very aggressive schedule, had particular requirements for what we were looking for, and needed someone to ensure a smooth process. My wife, who had previously been in real estate on the west coast, reached out to Linda after doing a lot of research to find the best agent in Cary for us. Linda exceeded our expectations. She was a pleasure to work with. Her calm confidence, many years of experience, excellent network, and solid team all contributed to a very positive experience and smooth transaction. We made several last-minute trips to check out neighborhoods and Linda always prioritized our needs and made the best of our time. When running our deal, Linda’s experience and professionalism were evident at every step. She added a lot of value and helped navigate a very low-stress transaction. We couldn’t have asked for a better agent and experience. She helped make the start of our next chapter in North Carolina a great one.
Colleen is an absolute pleasure to work with! We relocated from NY and she provided us with great details and information in regards to the moving process, settling into a new area, and great tips on acclimating to a new area. Colleen has a great sense of humor which made the process a lot of fun. She truly got to know our family and our needs to connect us with the right house and right neighborhood. Thanks Colleen!
On the purchase of my first home, Colleen and her team flawlessly handled the process. As a new buyer, I especially appreciated their willingness to answer any questions I had. When it came time to sell my first home, I looked forward to working with Colleen again. I knew that I would be kept informed every step of the way so that I could make the best decisions possible. I am happy to report that Colleen ensured that the sale could not have gone smoother or quicker!
Colleen Lawrence was an absolute pleasure to work with. She went above and beyond at every turn to help us make the best decisions for our future. I am thankful to have her guidance and industry knowledge on our side as we navigated the home buying/selling process.

If you are looking to sell your house in the Wake County area, I highly recommend Linda Trevor & Co. I interviewed 3 realtors and was very impressed by Linda. She was extremely knowledgeable and really listened to the things that were important to me in selling my mother's home. She gave me recommendations for contractors and designers. She and her team were very responsive and helped my mom get multiple offers within a 24 hour period.
Collen was a pleasure to work with. He was extremally knowledgeable of the local market and really made it easy for us to understand the market being from out of state. She took all the time needed to help us find a place that we absolutely love. During the closing process Colleen was super responsive, she had great referrals for every step of the wat, and she really cared about our transaction being successful. I would recommend working with Colleen with no reservations!
I cannot say enough good things about Colleen. We have worked with her three times now and she has set the bar at the ceiling for what a home buying experience should be. Touring homes alone was a showcase of her impeccable knowledge her trade as she pointed out potential issues, as well as whether or not they were something worth dealing with. Her perspective gave me a degree of confidence that I think is rarely felt when shopping for a home. She is a master negotiator, and showcased it through fighting on our behalf through multiple items that came up during our buying and selling process. Her consistent check-ins throughout the process were the icing on the cake. Our real estate experience is not extensive, so her reaching out to us frequently to provide counsel and guidance was critical to us finding our new home and selling the old one.
Being new to the area, Colleen was a wealth of information regarding buying a home in North Carolina. She was very knowledgeable about the real estate market, listened to our needs, a very responsive communicator and a superb negotiator. We had one hiccup with our deal which she handled skillfully and professionally. She is a real estate professional who goes out of her way to make sure her clients find their dream home all the while making it an enjoyable experience. We wish all our real estate transactions were this smooth. Thank you Colleen!
We have worked with them a number of times buying and selling properties and I couldn't recommend them more!
Linda Trevor and her great team are FANTASTIC!!! They made the selling process so easy and helped us understand what was happening every step of the way.
Every team member was extremely helpful and professional. Their promptness, knowledge of the market, strategic mindset, kindness, good energy made the selling process a smooth one.
We were well taken care of by an exceptionally well orchestrated team! We consider ourselves extremely lucky and blessed to have had Linda Trevor & Team as our Realtor! We would rate them higher than 10 if we could!
Thank you so much,
Barbara & Wolfgang
This is the third home Linda Trevor and her team of professionals have sold for me. Again I cannot praise them enough. Every aspect from my home listing to closing was seamlessly organized and successful. I highly recommend Linda Trevor. There is no better realtor in the triangle. Thank you Linda and team for making my home sale as easy and profitable as possible!
Working with Colleen has been one of the most stress free and easy experiences. She answered all of my investing questions with ease and if she didn't have it at the time she got right back to me as soon as possible.
Buying a house can be tough but with a realtor such as Colleen, it makes the process a whole lot easier. If you give her a chance you won't want to look anywhere else.
I know I will be looking to use her expertise on any future endeavors in the RDU area.
Thanks again Colleen!
Exceptional long distance buying experience. Classy, efficient communicators, highly skilled negotiator, and a team to support at every turn.
We had such an amazing experience buying our first house. I did a quick google search of realtors in the area and found Linda Trevor and Co. we were quickly paired with Cathy Hawkins. Working with Cathy was such a blessing. We knew nothing about buying a home and she walked us through everything in great details. She showed us countless homes and walked through each one with us meticulously. She pointed out things for us to look for or consider that we would have never known. When it came time to put in an offer she went back forth to help with negotiations. She always had our best interest in mind. She also had a plethora of contacts for lenders, closing attorneys, inspectors, etc. but always mentioned they were suggestions and never made it feel like we had to go with them but because we trusted Cathy so much we went with every person she suggested and turns out they were all amazing too. We feel very fortunate to have landed in Cathy’s lap. Her experience is beyond impressive and she has such a kind heart. If you are looking for a great experience all around I highly suggest you consider Cathy to be your realtor.
Colleen is an outstanding real estate agent. She expertly guided us through our complicated out-of-state move and subsequent purchase of a new construction home. Her level of commitment to finding us the perfect home far exceeded our expectations. She was proactive, knowledgeable, and available to us every step of the way. We wholeheartedly recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a realtor in the Triangle area. She is THE BEST!
Cathy was an absolute pleasure to work with; there is no way we would have been able to get the home we purchased (for the low price we purchased it for) without Cathy’s expertise, guidance, and contacts. This can be such a confusing and uncertain process but Cathy absolutely minimized that and made us super confident in each of our decisions (due to her in depth knowledge). She went above and beyond during every part of the home buying process to advocate for myself and my husband (beyond what a typical real estate agent would do) to make sure we had everything we needed. If we ever buy another home we will absolutely be working with Cathy again. I would recommend Cathy for buying your 1st home or your 10th.
Colleen was really wonderful from the start. She went over all the legal docs with us so we'd know what to expect when it came time to put an offer. This made us able to put an offer in more quickly. We were out of town when making the purchase and she kindly visited homes for us and video chatted us! Colleen is truly wonderful and we loved working with her! Would highly recommend her!
Colleen was fantastic. I reached out to her after she did a stellar job helping Dad find a house on 5 acres a couple years ago. We asked her to help us sell vacant land to the small developer who is doing our new build. She not only negotiated more than enough to cover her own fee, more importantly, she saved us the heartache of going through the process alone. A ton of weight was lifted from our shoulders! She kept things rolling along, kept us updated, coordinated documentation with the buyer and her office saved us so much grief and time by meeting us locally on a !!weekend!! , printing, explaining, and notarizing reams and reams of paperwork. Thank you so much!!
Linda Trevor & Co. are a top notch real estate agency. They are professional in every way. With on-point suggestions to enhance our home's marketability, top notch recommendations for contractors, and an online presentation that blew us away, we received multiple above listing price offers within days of it going on the market! She and her team continued to guide us through to a smooth closing. Based on our experience with Linda & Co. as our seller's agent, we highly recommend them.
Linda Trevor was recommended by a family friend. She was amazing throughout my entire process of looking for and buying a house. If you are looking for a realtor, I highly recommend Linda and her team.
Linda and her team were about as great as you could hope for when working with a realtor. Linda is very knowledgeable about the real estate landscape in the area and knows exactly what to look for when touring homes. Her and her team were very accommodating and went above and beyond. If you are looking to purchase a home in the Raleigh-Durham, I could not recommend her enough!
The first time we met with Linda, we knew instantly we would work with her. The amount of time and work she spent preparing for the meeting was evident as she spoke about our home, our neighborhood, and the market changes over the course of the year. Every person on her team who worked with us-- the stager, the photographer, the notary, the agents assisting her-- was incredibly good at their job and easy to work with.
Selling and buying a home can be stressful enough, but add-in building another home and dealing with Covid during the due diligence period, and that could be a very stressful situation. Linda handled everything seamlessly, kept us from worrying, and made this entire process easier than we thought it could be. We hope to be lucky enough to work with Linda again.
Cathy is an amazing realtor and can't recommend her enough. She has excellent communication skills and is very responsive. She helped us find exactly what we were looking for in the time we needed. I will definitely be recommending her to all my friends
Cathy was great to work with from start to finish! She helped us find the right builder and neighborhood and was attentive to all our needs throughout the process of building a home. She provided superb customer service and wise counsel at critical moments. We would recommend her to anyone looking for VIP treatment and expert advice!
Super professional team of agents.
Colleen was the most amazing help in buying my first home! She was always quick to respond with any questions I had and really made sure I was buying the right house for me. We went to several places and she always knew the area, school districts, and had knowledge of things I wouldn't have known to look for as a first time home buyer.
She took the time to make sure I was comfortable and made this crazy process feel much more manageable! She came recommended to me and I would highly pass along that recommendation to anyone else! If I ever need to buy another home, I know who to call!
Linda Trevor and her team are incredible. From the moment we spoke with Linda we knew she was going to sell our home! We had 14 showings in 19 days. On the 19th day they sold our home. Their communication is incredible! Every team members is kinder than the next. We had excellent photos taken, a fabulous stager made each room look more beautiful than the next. We enjoyed working with Linda Trevor and her team. We would highly recommend them to our friends and family!
Colleen has worked for us both buying and selling. Her team was terrific keeping us on track to complete all the paperwork, staging and supporting us emotionally during a stressful time.
We felt like we hit the realtor jackpot when we found Colleen. We were moving from out-of-state, and on multiple occasions Colleen made herself available on short notice not only to show us homes, but also drive us around local areas to help us get a feel for different towns and neighborhoods. We ended up buying new construction, and I can't imagine going through the process of working with a builder without having Colleen as our advocate. She went way above and beyond throughout the 8-month process to make sure we were happy with our purchase and being treated fairly by our builder, including responding to emails while on vacation and using her network to get us contact information for our builder's executive team. Colleen is a true professional in every sense of the word, and we couldn't recommend her more!
Colleen is the best! We were first time home buyers and she made sure to take the time and explain everything to us. The first house we went and toured with her she crawled into the crawl space and climbed up in to the attic and pointed out all of the issues that she could see. It was such a relief and confidence booster knowing your realtor was willing to get her hands dirty to make sure you got the right house. I never once felt pressured to buy a house by her and it really seemed like she had our best interest in mind. We told her what we were looking for and instead of trying to sell us on houses, she would actually recommend we go see other houses. We finally found the house of our dreams with her help. I can not recommend her enough.
Choosing a realtor is a very important choice. As a second time home buyer, I knew what I was looking for and had high standards for a professional who could really help my family and I find our dream home. We were relocating to the Raleigh area from Austin after only one visit to the city, so Colleen had her work cut out for her. Not only did she educate us on the pros/cons of each neighborhood, she expertly navigated things we wouldn't even imagine, such as traffic flows (beyond commutes), local weather implications, drainage, road widening and more. Colleen took an entire day to drive us around the entire area, from Wake Forest to Cary and Apex. She was patient and intuitive, and after we flew back to Austin she kept sending homes that would fit. We encountered a loss of income and adjusted our budget and Coleen never missed a beat. Then one day, Colleen FaceTimed us from a house we knew was "the one." We flew up to see it and she helped us negotiate and put us in touch with a fleet of professionals at a moments notice: inspectors, mortgage agents, insurance and more. We feel so confident we made a sound decision, and we view Colleen as a real advocate and trusted friend in such a complex process. Colleen is a true professional and KNOWS THIS BUSINESS and area so so well, but she also has an infectious positive and can-do attitude, making the whole process (dare I say)...fun!
I cannot say enough great things about Colleen. We purchased our first home with her and she was the BEST! Very patient as we viewed house after house. She does not sugar coat what she thinks about her house and let us know which houses were good/not worth the repairs. I fully recommend her!
Colleen and her team was excellent. We were moving in from out of state and we didn’t have much idea about the area. Colleen helped us with that and gave us some pointers with schools as well. I would highly recommend her. Her knowledge is in depth and the final quote for the house was absolutely spot on. We ended up getting a nice house for the right price.
Linda and her team worked to make the sale of our house a great experience. The attention to detail put forth in staging and photography were excellent. Her team kept us up to speed throughout every step of the process. Their professionalism and experience in the real estate market is exceptional. I highly recommend Linda and her team for your real estate needs.
Colleen did an incredible job. As a first time home buyer she exceeded our expectations in many ways. She was very insightful when it came to interior and exterior house knowledge, the area, research, and background expertise. She even crawled into the crawl space for us - need I say more! I would recommend Colleen for all types of homebuyers.
Linda was with me all the way on buying my new home. Her professionalism is so amazing. Since I was moving from Kansas she helped me find a place which was just right and it has turned out to be just what I wanted and needed. She not only is a professional but soon became a true friend. A big thanks for all of the time and effort she put into my new adventure.
Cathy was recommended to us from my wife's sorority sister and it was serendipity! Cathy listened to our needs and wants and guided us to a new build home in an area we love! While the build process is not for the faint at heart, Cathy, having been through it herself, listened to our concerns throughout the process, calmed us when needed, and was tactful in negotiating legitimate issues throughout the process. Cathy was always available - even when she should not have been! She even made many many trips to our new build home to help walk us through some concerns we had. We haven't ever experienced that before. Cathy is a true professional that helped us navigate a new area and the new build process with expertise, understanding, and compassion. Our needs/wants were always at the fore front of Cathy's mind. We did get a beautiful home, on a gorgeous lot, in a wonderful community out of our partnership. But most importantly, we gained a new friend with Cathy and her husband! If you have the opportunity to work with Cathy Hawkins, I strongly you advise you to do so! You will not be disappointed.
We used Linda and her team for both the purchase of and sale of our home. Cannot speak highly enough about her and her team's professionalism and attention to detail. True pros. Highly recommend!
This is the second time we have worked with Colleen. She is a true professional, knowledgeable, proactive, and completely personable. She is always available throughout the process to answer questions, guide decisions and lead the process in your behalf. You are safe in her hands and the catch phrase " You got this" really does sun up your experience with her and her team whether buying or selling which we have done both.
We have trusted Linda Trevor & Co with the sale of our home in Cary NC. Linda Trevor and her team met and exceeded our expectations in every way possible. They have hired the vendors who did an excellent job for a fair price to prepare and stage our home for the sale. Linda and her team protected our best interest with their caring professionalism, knowledge and experience. The house was sold, less than being 24 hours on the market for a much higher price than we expected. I highly recommend Linda Trevor & Co. either you are purchasing a home or selling one.
I worked with MaryBeth to purchase my first home. In the beginning, she met with me to understand my criteria and gave me a great overview of where the market was at (I started looking for homes in March 2022). I began looking at homes and she was always available to meet to view them and gave me her honest opinion when looking at them. I also really appreciated that she spent time looking at any areas that might cause issues, such as the crawlspace, attic space, underneath counters, etc. When I found a home I wanted to put an offer on, MaryBeth provided with me with helpful comparables and advice on what to offer. I was very lucky to get the first house I put an offer on and MaryBeth then provided me with a number of helpful resources to guide me through to closing. We unfortunately discovered some issues with the house and MaryBeth was so incredibly helpful in terms of navigating getting bids and going back to the seller to negotiate some money back, for which we were successful. I highly recommend using MaryBeth!
Cathy made my experience as a first time home buyer informative, comfortable, and easy. I feel like I learned a lot throughout the process, as she was always available to talk and took the time to explain things to me. She is thorough, thoughtful, an excellent broker.
Cathy is a very knowledgeable realtor. She will steer you in the right direction as to locations and builders and will be your greatest advocate along your journey. My daughter used her for a realtor and came highly recommended and now so do we highly recommend Cathy to assist in any house hunting endeavors.
We were relocating from another state and worked with Colleen to buy a home. She is a pleasure to work with. She took the time to find out our needs and wants and really listened. Colleen was in constant contact with updates and very quick to respond to any questions. Once we found a home she guided us through every step and anticipated all our needs. We were never left wondering where we were at in the process. She also took the time to tell us about the area and everything we would need once we got here so everything went very smoothly on moving day. She took a lot of stress out of relocating. We highly recommend Colleen.
Many thanks to Colleen and her team in working alongside us to find the right home for our family. Being new to NC, Colleen has been a wealth of information in helping us navigate through the process of finding and purchasing a home. We have looked at many homes online and in person and Colleen is always quick to respond to an e-mail or text with information or setting up viewing appointments.* Knows the territory - Being unfamiliar with the geography, we were pointed to areas and towns that fit our needs.* Knows the market -Has a great website to keep track of homes we were interested in based on our criteria.* Wealth of Resources - We have been put in touch with many good people through Colleen to help us with the intricacies of home finding and purchasing.* Patient and understanding - Purchasing a home can be a process and take time, we were never rushed or pushed toward any decision.I always appreciate working with people who put my priorities above their own. Moving and purchasing a home is hard and stressful for anyone. Having someone who comes along side you and be there as a resource to help make good decisions and meet your needs.. is the best compliment I can give to Colleen. Because that's exactly what she did for our family.
MaryBeth is an incredibly competent agent to work with. And tons of fun. She takes all the guesswork from this stressful exercise and puts you at ease. And might I add, her response times to your nagging queries deserves 8 stars! There's no question too small, and none too late in the night for her to jump on your case. She makes you feel like you're her only client.
We couldn't ask for a better realtor than MaryBeth! She was knowledgeable, organized, and efficient when we needed to find a new home ASAP after moving from out-of-state. After compiling the homes of interest to us online, she created a detailed itinerary of viewings. Once we made an offer and were under contract, she helped coordinate all inspections in a timely manner and checked in to make sure things were going smoothly for us. We were able to close in one month with no major hiccups or issues. MaryBeth is also personable and made buying a home a fun and enjoyable experience for us despite the crazy market. We will be giving MaryBeth an enthusiastic recommendation to anyone looking for a realtor!
Colleen is fantastic! I’ve worked with her several times with both selling and buying homes. I would not want to work with anyone else! She is always on top of every deadline and makes the process seem simple. Colleen is very responsive and professional. She knows the market and can help find a solution for any issues that might arise. I can’t imagine buying or selling a home without Colleen’s help! I can’t recommend Colleen highly enough - you won’t find a better Realtor anywhere!
She (Colleen) is so amazing to work with. This is our first home so we had no clue about housing. She guided us thorough and helped us make good decisions. She made sure all our requirements met and sent us listing accordingly. I am glad we found her :)
Colleen is not just diligent, competent, and exceptional at what she does, but she is a phenomenal person to work with on either side of the buying or selling experience. She arranged and negotiated on my behalf the sale of two homes and the purchase of one, and has advised me above and beyond what could be considered an outstanding service level as a realtor. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again, as her knowledge of the Triangle region and beyond is extensive and her ability to recognize and mitigate potential and unexpected issues exceeds all possible expectations.
Colleen Lawrence is an exceptional realtor. We have now worked with her on 3 occasions to buy/sell our homes, and reccomended her to our parents who bought their home through her. Colleen has been present at almost every meeting and transaction and we sincerely trust her advice and negotiation skills. There is no question that Colleen and her team put customer service before sales. Our family highly recommends Colleen Lawrence!
As a mortgage professional for many years, I have had the pleasure of working with many agents. Cathy definitely stands out as a true professional in her field. Always on top of things, organized, and answered calls and texts without delays. Feedback from our buyers was that she truly cared about them and put their needs ahead of hers. Relationships, not transactions. Thank you Cathy!
You wont find a better Realtor than Cathy! She just helped us purchase a home for the second time. Everything went extremely smooth and fast which was great in a market like this. She is an expert. She is available at all times and goes above and beyond throughout all steps of the process. We will be using her again for sure in the future. Thanks Cathy!
Cathy was fantastic for us during our home search and purchase process, all during a highly competitive market. From the outset, she was proactive, supportive, and informative every step of the way. She always answered all our questions promptly and often provided information we had not thought of. She was considerate of our hopes and needs and never pushed us in a direction we weren't comfortable with, while at the same time giving us realistic and effective strategies that ultimately panned out. She also had wonderful team support as well and endless resources for people to help us with various aspects in the process. We love our new home and are forever grateful to Cathy! Couldn't have done it without her.
As first time home buyers, relocating to NC during a pandemic, we could not have asked for a better person or agent than Cathy to guide us through the process. Cathy has been holding our hands since the first day we were referred to her while making our first visit to NC in hopes of moving. Unfortunately, the pandemic hit and so our plans to move to NC were delayed. Even during the pause Cathy was helpful in answering all our emails about our potential move (whether to lease or buy). Once we were able to move, Cathy was there to greet us and help us in matter of days to find a home to lease until we were able to settle and ultimately able to purchase a home of our own. She has always been readily available and extremely helpful which made our transition from NYC to NC all that much smoother. Recently we were lucky to purchase a home in an area we love all with the help of Cathy. We can’t say enough how thankful we are for having Cathy during this process. I don’t think there had ever been an email, phone call or text unanswered. During the whole process, we felt that she always had our and our family’s best interest at heart! We hope to enjoy the current home we purchased, with Cathy’s help, but if we ever choose to move we certainly will look to Cathy for help and will recommend her to anyone that is searching to purchase a home. Thank you Cathy!
Melissa is AMAZING. We were first-time home buyers and Melissa walked us through the process, was patient with our hundreds of questions, and really listened to our needs. Everything moves fast in this market and Melissa was on top of it with showings and getting us the information we requested. Her turnaround time answering emails/texts is lightning fast. If she didn’t know an answer to our questions, she took the time to find out the right answer. She always gave us the honest truth. We are so glad we had Melissa on our team and you will be so thrilled to have her on yours as well! Melissa’s goal is to get you into a home that you love and she did just that for us and really exceeded our expectations every step of the way.
"As we were looking remotely from another state, we depended upon Colleen to be our eyes as we were looking for homes. She gave us sound advice and was always very responsive despite a 3 HR time difference. She was always happy to do whatever we asked. Our entire experience with Colleen was excellent. We couldn't have asked for a better Realtor."
"Colleen was an absolute godsend! After trying in vain to purchase a home in Tennessee and having no luck and a lousy realtor to boot, we changed direction and decided to try our luck in the Raleigh/Durham area. We were so fortunate to have found Colleen who was extremely patient, caring and very competent. She knows this area and definitely puts the client first. She managed the impossible by making the process of home buying in this crazy market fairly painless. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor in the Triangle!!"
We worked with Colleen to buy our first home this spring. She took the time to walk us through every step of the process and helped us navigate the insanely competitive Wake County market. She respected our budget, never pressured us to do anything we weren't comfortable with, and was up front with us about any red flags she saw as we toured homes. With her guidance, our second offer was accepted! The closing process went very smoothly - thanks to her work behind the scenes, most issues were resolved before we even knew about them. Our new home is perfect for us!
We began our home search with a different realtor with mixed results. We were really feeling the heat of the Raleigh market and were beginning to wonder if we'd ever find a home. So we decided to change realtors. We looked up realtors in our area on zillow and found Colleen. And thank goodness we did! When we met her in person, she spent two hours talking us through the real estate closing processes and documentation that we would come across later. As first time homebuyers, this was invaluable to us. Needless to say we were stunned at the level of customer service we were now receiving. Colleen went through what we were looking for in our home search and provided us with a list of homes. We went through the list, found one we liked and toured it with her. We decided to put down an offer which was accepted. Later on in the process when the home didn't appraise (not surprising given the current market here in the Raleigh area) Colleen negotiated with the seller and was able to get them to drop the asking price to the appraised value! This is unheard of in today's sellers market. During all of our interactions with Colleen, we consciously decided to defer to her years of experience and knowledge of the Raleigh market and were rewarded with a home we love at a great price point. She was always available through text (my preferred mode of communication) and calls and turned a relatively stressful process into a stress free one for us. We are so glad we decided to work with her and are thankful for her exceptional customer service, knowledge and negotiation skills. I would recommend her for all of your real estate transaction needs without any hesitation. Colleen will be our go to realtor here in the Raleigh area for sure.
Colleen was an absolute pleasure to work with. We reached out to her when we were still in Florida and planning our move to the Raleigh area, and she took the time to get in touch with us to go over the home buying process here, learn about what we were looking for and checked in with us throughout the entire process of us moving. Once we were in the area and ready to start looking for homes, Colleen was very responsive to every question and request, especially with the pressure of a very hot market and the urgency to schedule showings right away, Colleen always made sure we were able to schedule something immediately. I can’t tell you the amount of times I emailed, called or texted her with questions and she ALWAYS had time to answer. She truly goes above and beyond to help her clients and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone searching for a home. She is great at what she does, and we are so happy we got to work with her during this process!
"Colleen was so knowledgeable, professional and kind from day one. We were completely new to the area and she was not afraid to guide us and advise us to areas and issues we would not have thought of. She was also thorough in dealing with our builders and lawyers with excellent communication and always encouraging and positive. She is just fantastic!"
"Colleen is an exceptional real estate professional! We were buying a house in Cary, NC area from out of state with very little knowledge about the local market. We were so lucky to have picked Colleen to be our realtor. She was very knowledgeable about the area, market trends and helped us pick the right house to bid on. We trusted her judgement on the house to pick and the bidding amount and we're so happy with the outcome. She also helped us so much during post-offer acceptance phase through closing as we were out of town and would've had a very hard managing things remotely. She's a pleasure to work with and I've already recommended her to two of my friends who are planning to buy a house in the triangle area."
"Colleen is an exceptional real estate professional! We are from out of state, and the minute that we connected with Colleen, we knew we were in good hands. Her attention to detail is first rate (she doesn't miss a thing), and she is so fast to respond to emails / phone calls. We have used multiple realtors in the past, and while they were "ok / good," Colleen has set a new bar for us - We honestly didn't think that realtors this good existed. This was such a great experience!"
Colleen was a pleasure to work with as our Buyer's agent. From the start you could tell she was more interested in making sure that we were happy with our choice and not just interested in making a quick sale. She was very knowledgeable about the market and went out of her way to scout out potential issues with the properties seen. Look no further if you need a great buyer's agent.
"Colleen was so easy to work with. She’s easy going, friendly, and ridiculously knowledgeable on the market. She saved us tons with her advice and luckily we were bold enough to trust her, because she got us the house we wanted for an unbelievable price! I used reviews to find her from California and I hope this review will guide you to her as well…you won’t be disappointed! Thanks Colleen!"
MaryBeth was amazing! The year before we purchased a new build, she helped us get our home ready to sell and it FLEW off the market with many offers over asking. In the interim she stayed in contact with us until we found a new home. She was with us every step of the way! She knew what she was doing, was quick to respond to us and the builder, stopped by to check on the house while it was being built, knew exactly what to look for to make sure our new home was perfect and built right and had the connections to get great inspections! Can't say enough good things. Also, my 4 year old daughter loved her, and MaryBeth went out of her way to make sure she felt included in the process, letting my daughter give her a "tour", helping her reach the high spaces during the blue tape walk through. You can't go wrong working with MaryBeth, we're so grateful to have had her in our corner through the whole process.
Being a young couple buying our very first home in the middle of a pandemic, my husband and I were more than a little nervous about making the leap from renting to buying. We knew close to nothing about what we were doing, but Cathy still managed to make the whole process feel almost effortless. Initially, browsing for homes on our own felt like looking for a needle in a haystack. With Cathy's help, however, we found dozens of homes that met our needs, and so never felt the urge to place an offer on a home that wasn't absolutely perfect. Cathy was always mindful of our preferences — including price, location, amenities, size, aesthetic — and encouraged us not to settle for anything below our standards. When it came to scheduling viewings, Cathy was extremely prompt. One day we just so happened to pass by a home that was for sale, contacted her about potentially being able to see it, and within 20 minutes she was there with a key and relevant information! She was also able to accommodate us when we were unable to physically attend a viewing — instead allowing me to join her on a video call while she toured the house herself and pointed out notable details. Cathy also had a wealth of information, not just about buying homes in general, but also in terms of a home's personal history, price estimates on repairs, suggestions for renovations, details about specific loan types, info about various locations, and even words of caution when necessary. As we began placing offers on homes, Cathy was also able to advise us from both a financial and social perspective. In fact, we now own our current house, not because we had the highest bid, but because we wrote the owners a personalized letter based on Cathy's advice. Ultimately, Cathy knew just what we needed and just when we needed it! She was always personable, diligent, and professional, never leading us astray or neglecting us over the several months in which we benefited from her services. I highly recommend Cathy to anyone looking to buy a house, and am sure my husband and I will seek her out the next time we move!
As first time homebuyers, Cathy was the perfect realtor to guide us in this nutty market. She went above and beyond to accommodate any last minute surprises we had, from Zooming us a house tour to looking into last minute requests on our behalf. I know I will zealously recommend her to anyone who will listen to me!
"Buying a house is always fun, yet can be very stressfull. Somehow Colleen seemed to bring out mainly the fun pleasant part of this home buying experience. Along the way, she was very reliable and proactive to answer questions and assist in a very timely informative manner. We really enjoyed working with Colleen especially since she was patient in finding what we were looking for, instead of pushing something else on us to just make a sale. She goes above and beyond when seeing houses to point out anything that doesn't seem right, to negotiate as needed. It was a great experience working with Colleen, and we really appreciated her knowledge and expertise. Thank you Colleen!"
I had the most amazing experience with MaryBeth. She made the entire process so easy, and her local knowledge and community resources helped move things along quickly. I would absolutely use her again in the future!
Let us first say that we would highly recommend Colleen to help with your home buying process. This was our first home and Colleen made us feel comfortable and like a valued client the entire time (from the initial meeting all the way through closing). She quickly became a trusted adviser of ours. She demonstrated exceptional professionalism, provided great energy and a positive attitude, and always looked out for our best interest -- all this while managing our expectations through a challenging real estate environment. If you are looking for an agent that will (1) be there to help answer your questions, (2) provide you with guidance and her perspective on the home buying opportunity, and (3) go above and beyond to do whatever is necessary to make sure you have a positive home buying experience -- Colleen is a great choice. We can't say enough good things about Colleen and would recommend her to any of our friends and family in a heartbeat.
Stop looking for an agent, Cathy is the GOAT. You absolutely want her on your team to represent you - she will make you feel like family and does an amazing job of filtering the stressful situations in this crazy market. Thank you again Cathy!
"We are so lucky to have Colleen as our realtor agent. She did all hard work to find the beautiful and lovely house for us. She is responsible, honest and knowledgeable about the area where we were looking for our new home. We had no problems to get all information from her and she was always available even after office time. My husband and I truly appreciate what she has done for us and I highly recommend her if someone who is looking for their dream house."
Cathy was extremely helpful in helping us buy a new home. We got a home we love, in the area we wanted, and under-budget in one of the toughest markets for buyers in recent history. She worked around our busy work and parenting schedules, patiently explained processes to me, and helped manage the process from beginning to end. I highly recommend using Cathy as your realtor.
"Colleen is absolutely amazing! I relocated to Raleigh from out of state and she helped me find my home in only 3 months. She is very professional and truly knows the market here. She helped me make offers that I was comfortable with but that were also competitive. She was always available to answer my questions and was extremely proactive throughout the buying process. Colleen is so easy to work and I really trusted her as my realtor!"
"We tell everyone we know about Colleen. We've both bought and sold a home with her at this point, and she makes what is normally a stressful process an absolute joy. Her advice is *always* on point and it has saved us from so many headaches and regrets, not to mention saving us thousands of dollars. Colleen asks great questions and our conversations with her were always productive. On top of all of this, she is just a lovely person who genuinely cares about her clients. We are so thankful we found her. You will be too."
"Colleen was amazing!!! We were first time home buyers and Colleen coached us through all of the steps in great detail. She was always there to help us consider the options we weren’t even thinking about and made sure as first time buyers we knew about all of the details we needed to consider. We couldn’t have gotten such a beautiful home in a short amount of time without her. Could not recommend her more!!!"
"Colleen did not hesitate to hop in her car and show me properties, any time and any day of the week. She understands that in the current hot market, getting to a property quickly is important. Colleen has extensive knowledge of the entire area and was always honest with her opinion. Her network of contractors and local resources has been invaluable and would be to someone just moving to the area."
As a first-time homebuyer and new to NC, Colleen helped us immensely in getting the best value for our money and explaining the entire process of buying our first home. When we needed to quickly sell our same home a few years later due to a job transfer she helped us extremely to accomplish that. Colleen worked with many different professionals to get our home in sparkling condition, staged beautifully using our own belongings, and photographed invitingly for potential buyers. With her help we were able to get a excellent, fair price for our home in the time frame we needed. It was total luck that we first found Colleen and began working with her as we didn't know anyone in the area but I would recommend her to anyone.
"Colleen was a joy to work with! We were out of state buyers and ended up purchasing our house sight unseen, and Colleen made the process simple and as stress free as possible! She went to multiple houses and face timed with us and checked everything out. She also knows the area so well and was able to answer every one of our questions."
"I was so happy to have come across Colleen Lawrence's name when I was researching great realtors in the Raleigh area. I was living up in Massachusetts at the time searching for a home in Fuquay-Varina. The reviews I read of Colleen were 100% on target. From my first virtual meeting with Colleen while I was in Massachusetts she was so thorough, professional and kind. She spent so much time with me trying to get details of my wants and needs as much as possible. When I came down to N.C. we found my house the first time we went out looking. It was a home to be built. Through the whole process, Colleen has been there checking in every step of the way. She has attended every meeting that I had from selections for the home, to inspections and beyond. We are closing in a couple of weeks and I was just thinking about how lucky I was to have found her and my new home. I thought I would share what a great agent she was to work with. I am sure if anyone has the pleasure of working with Colleen, they would certainly have to agree with me. I worked as a realtor many years ago and bought and sold my own homes over the years having many dealings with realtors. I can fairly say, in comparison to many other agents, Colleen is definitely a 5 star agent who goes above and beyond. Anyone would be lucky to work with her. Thank you Colleen for your stellar professionalism!"
We have used Cathy multiple times within the last few years. She has helped us through the process of purchasing and selling a townhouse, as well as buying new construction. She is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of resale and new construction. We often joke that she is a detective because she is so observant when walking through homes and often picks up on details we would have never noticed. She is timely, responsive, and will advocate for you both as a buyer and a seller! I highly recommend her and her team! We plan to work with her again for all of our real estate needs in the future.
Colleen was/is amazing for us! She was quick to get our offer in and quick to get our closing process done. Colleen’s knowledge was extremely helpful! We recommend Colleen 100%!
"Colleen is extremely knowledgeable. If you are looking for an experienced professional with excellent negotiation skills - don't even hesitate, just go ahead and contact to start working with her. One of the best parts is that she was always available to answer any questions I had and kept me updated on all important information. I am very grateful for her support throughout the entire process and how she made it so pleasant and stress-free for me as a client. I highly recommend Colleen to anyone who is looking for a great real estate agent!"
"Colleen is amazing at her job. She is knowledgeable, helpful, and quick to respond and act, which are all necessary to buy in today's competitive real estate market. She walked us through the process of purchasing our first home in NC, answered all our questions, and was eager to help us find our perfect home without any pressure. I truly appreciated her willingness to go above and beyond when we toured homes, including pointing out areas of concern and how the issue could be remedied as well as cautioning against purchasing when more serious issues were spotted (e.g. major cracks in the foundation, signs of water damage, etc.). She also has excellent negotiation skills and was able to get the seller's agent / seller to agree to make repairs to the home based on the inspection report (which is difficult to do in this market). We couldn't have asked for a better realtor and look forward to working with her again in the future!"
"We were referred to Colleen Lawrence to be our buyer’s agent when we decided to build a home in Holly Springs. She immediately became our partner and advocate by showing us her job was more about service than sales. She didn’t miss a single meeting during Covid whether it was with the builder or design center. Colleen was always immediately available to us and she answered every call, text and email no matter what time of the day it was. She made us feel like we were her most important clients. She also sold our previous home and the process was flawless from the stager, photos/video to listing our home. Our house sold very quickly and Colleen walked us through every step of the process with her heartfelt advice. We are now living in our new home and she is still advocating for us with some outstanding items. Colleen is a rockstar and we will never work with anyone else! We are so grateful she was with us every step of the way and not only do we have a beautiful new home, we have a wonderful new friend!"
Colleen Is incredible, stop reading right now and reach out to work with her. Colleen’s knowledge of the local area helped her find the perfect home for us, after looking and trying to narrow things down for several months. Colleen knew more about what we wanted than we actually did! So quick to respond and action, we never felt like she wasn’t focused on us and our situation less than 100% of her time. An Amazing personality and spectacular work ethic make working with Colleen a real pleasure. This is our second time working with Colleen, and we would do it again in a heartbeat. Do not miss out on meeting this incredible person and finding your dream home.
"Colleen helped us find our house and then sold our house for us 6 years later. Her real estate expertise, her professionalism, and her enthusiasm make her the perfect realtor. She was always available to answer our questions and her upbeat personality makes her a pleasure to work with. She knows the local market inside and out and our house sold the very first day! She goes above and beyond and I highly recommend Colleen if you are looking for a realtor in the Triangle area."
"My daughter had worked with Colleen several years ago when she purchased her new home. Since my daughter was very pleased with that experience, it was natural to contact Colleen when it was time to purchase my home. Again, the experience was excellent. Colleen is very knowledgeable about the area, is always helpful and a pleasure to talk to and always promptly returned our calls to answer the many questions we had. She was always available to show us any homes we were interested in and offered many helpful suggestions. I would highly recommend her for any real estate needs you may have."
We highly recommend Linda Trevor & Team for a great sales and buying experience. As soon as we expressed an interest to move and help my parents move, Linda wanted to meet with us and talk about what updates would be beneficial to make to the homes before listing and what updates are not really needed by the seller in this market. Instead of having to find people on our own to make the updates, Linda offers a few names that we can contact for quotes (in addition to any we come up with on our own). Linda’s recommendations have been stellar. It can be hard to find people to help in this market but if Linda refers a business they are committed to wanting to do a great job because Linda is great to work with. Linda has a supportive team to help with listing, closing, buying who are quick to respond and be available and Linda is meeting with us, texting us too as we move along with everything. We exceeded our hopes with getting the most for the homes we sold with Linda - really blown away both times we sold with her and buying was awesome too. Linda is very thoughtful when determining what goes into a listing and listing price. We highly recommend listing with Linda Trevor & Team When we found homes we wanted to see, Colleen got us in immediately. When she thought there was a significant issue with a home we wanted to see, she let us know. When we wanted to check out a new neighborhood Colleen met us there and helped us ask all the right questions to help us with our decisions. We got the home we wanted and are very thankful to Colleen, Linda & Team.
"Colleen helped me buy my first house this year. Before we really started working together, she took the time to explain a lot about the overall process, including the challenges of the current market landscape. She was so great to work with, and look forward to working with her again in the future."
"Colleen was phenomenal to work with. As first-time home buyers, we were pretty ignorant to the home buying process and Colleen walked us through all the important details step-by-step in a way that was easy to understand. She worked extremely hard and diligently to help us find the perfect home. Colleen is very knowledgeable, has a very kind personality, and is incredibly dedicated to her clients. She was always very quick to respond to our phone calls, emails, and texts and was more than willing to help us with any questions we had along the way. Colleen truly went above and beyond, and exceeded our expectations. We already knew she was great based on the reviews we had read, but working with her in-person really shed light on just how amazing she was! Searching for a home right now is more stressful than ever, but having Colleen by our side as our realtor eased our anxieties and made the process the best we could have possibly hoped for. We LOVE our new home and we would absolutely recommend Colleen to anyone looking to buy or sell a home - we are so happy that we chose her and you will be too."
Linda Trevor and her team are the only call you need to make if you are buying or selling a property in this area. Her resources are deep and you will be assisted in every phase of the process as needed. Linda is very personable and communicates well by listening first to your goals and your situation, then creating the plan that works. Selling and moving can be a stressful process but we were able to let go of a lot of things knowing it was all being professionally handled. Linda helped us navigate through the multiple offers generated, leading to a quick sale, well above listing price. Everything exceeded our expectations! We could not have asked for a better selling experience, from our first meeting until closing.
Linda and her team are the best from start to finish! Zero problems,zero excuses, they just make it happen . Thank you for selling number six ! From the immediate staging to pictures and getting it all put together took only days ,not weeks. Linda is knowledgeable and respected by the whole industry .I have referred her to 10 sellers who were happy and satisfied as I am .Houses were always respected and taken care of as well as someone checking behind other agents . She is a great pleasing negotiator but more importantly she listens . Linda and team are just easy to work with listing and selling and produces results. Thank you as always.

Cathy was amazing during our move from Texas to NC. She was patient, professional, extremely knowledgeable about the area and market, and will spend so much time taking through things with you. She was the best- I miss our calls! Can’t recommend enough.
Following the first phone conversation I had with Linda I felt she was, without question, very knowledgeable, professional and candid, and someone I wanted to work with. As the listing process got underway, Linda's team did an outstanding job of communicating the sequence of events to follow, from staging to photo day to providing documents to sign. Questions from us were answered promptly. The showing process (Showing Time) is another effective and efficient tool which allowed potential buyers to request 30 minute time slots directly from us, avoiding a typical "general admission" open house. Overall, we are extremely impressed with Linda and her team and so grateful to have sold the house over list and without any showings. I highly recommend Linda Trevor and her team to handle a sale or purchase and will definitely contact Linda in the future.
"Colleen has a knowledge and passion for real estate that I have not seen before. Truly a professional and compassionate agent. We have worked with Colleen to purchase three homes and will continue to refer her to our friends/family and call upon her for her expertise on all of our future real estate needs. There is no one better then Colleen."
"I first started working with Colleen back in 2018. She helped us find the perfect home when moving from NY to NC. Her patience and knowledge made the entire process painless and enjoyable. So much so, that we then worked with Colleen to buy a house for my parents in 2019. Then, because Colleen is just the greatest, we worked with her again in 2021 to buy a house for my Nana! Colleen is honest, hardworking and an absolute pleasure, both professionally and personally. I'd like to think we have now become friends. Thank you Colleen, for all you do. Perhaps 2022 will bring us back together on another home purchase :)"
"Colleen is an absolute professional. As a buyer during this hard market she assisted us in finding our dream home. The experience was pleasant and that speaks to the quality of realtor that she is. Ahead of every step, she managed the whole process with ease, while always fighting for our best interest. Colleen’s knowledge and expertise is rare, she gets the job done."
Colleen was amazing to work with. She was knowledgeable, and really helpful through the whole home buying process. I would highly recommend Colleen to anyone buying or selling a house.
Colleen was an amazing agent to work with! We were only able to come to town for a short time over a weekend and she was nothing short of fantastically helpful, from helping us find a hotel to carting us all over town to every showing and giving us a tour around the city and even bringing us back to the airport! It was our first home buying experience and Colleen made it as painless and enjoyable as it could be. Every step of the way I was confident we were receiving the right guidance and support and we were able to get into our dream house. Colleen was quick to act on anything that popped up and was proactive in guiding us through every step from the search to offers to closing even as we were all the way across the country and 3 time zones behind! I would highly recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a Realtor in the Raleigh area, she is everything we could have asked for to guide us through this journey and more!
Colleen is an exceptional agent & here's why: - she walks you through all the paperwork, contracts, requirements, nuances of buying a house. She explains the process from a to z AT THE BEGINNING of your engagement, not when you are ready to submit an offer. I felt PREPARED when we found the one and was not stressing about the paperwork, because I knew exactly what each paper & the process was. - she does not ask to commit to her. If you find a house yourself and see it with another agent, you are free to leave. This tells me she cares more of my satisfaction than of her paycheck. - we were house hunting from out of state in a hot market. After losing one house to a conventional approach, I suggested a different "creative" approach and Colleen jumped on it immediately, consulted with her lawyer and we agreed on another game plan. It worked! The 2nd house is ours. - closing was a breeze, with a super pleasant surprise (no spoiler, sorry) - throughout the process, Colleen acted fast, was uber-responsive, professional, resourceful, reliable, as well as kind. She listens, she acts, she CARES. I wouldn't wish for a better agent. We are very thankful.
Since we are buyers from out of state, we came in with a little bit of trepidation. From the moment we met Cathy she made us feel at ease and comfortable. She earned our complete trust with her job knowledge and and friendly transparency. The virtual tour of the property and surrounding community was awesome. Cathy's services has proven to be second to none.
Linda Trevor and team sold our townhome and negotiated the purchase of a beautiful condo for us. The process was professional, timely and somehow they made it enjoyable too! If you are selling or buying a new residence and want the best in the business this is the team you want!
I have been a real estate broker in Pennsylvania for 35 years. Recently may wife and I decided to move closer to family in North Carolina. As a broker and company owner I wanted an experienced, market knowledgeable agent to represent us. After extensive research I decided to work with the Linda Trevor team in Cary. After our initial meeting with Linda she suggested that we work with her buyer's agent Cathy Hawkins. For those who have been trying to purchase a home this year, you realize just how competitive the market is. North Carolina is , by far, one of the toughest with low inventory and exceptionally high buyer demand. Cathy stuck with us the whole way. In my 35 years I have never met an agent more dedicated to helping their client achieve their goals. Her market knowledge and her service was flawless. Her response to questions was quick and always 'right on'. Even with my experience in real estate I became a typical buyer. Impatient, somewhat demanding, frustrate and I admit, sometimes wishy-washy in my wants and needs. Cathy stuck with us the entire way. We moved into the house of out dreams a week ago. If it had not been for Cathy and her ability to "roll with the punches" I know we would still be out there scratching our heads saying "what do we do now" Please take my advice; if you looking to by a home in the Raleigh, North Carolina area, work with Cathy Hawkins and the Linda Trevor team. In my 35 years as an agent, broker and company owner I have never met anyone better.
Colleen was helpful and knowledgeable during our home buying experience as first time home buyers. In such a competitive market, she was creative and used her industry knowledge that gave us an advantage during the home buying process. I would recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and hardworking realtor!
Linda is the consummate professional. I really enjoyed working with her as she often helped with decisions as we were moving to the area from a long way away. Her advice and keen eye for design helped to ensure our new home build went smoothly and we, as the customer, got what we both wanted and needed. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Linda and her team. I could not be more pleased with our end results and Linda was a HUGE part in making that happen for me and my family.
Colleen was a pro. She knows the area well, and was very hands on. She listened to our needs and met all of them. She was always in our corner in negotiations and discussions with the builder. She was wonderful!
I loved working with Colleen! She is very knowledgeable and very thorough. She made selling AND buying our house very smooth. She was also very responsive anytime we needed anything. Thank you, Colleen!
Colleen was so professional and impressive to work with. She always had done her research before meeting with us. She advocated for the best deal decisions both with selling our house and finding a new one. I felt Colleen was really on our side and wanted the best for us all around. We will definitely be calling her for any future moves and will be recommending her to everyone!
Couldn't be happier! We did a lot of research to find the best realtor and finally selected Linda & Co. based on her deep expertise and proven track record of success...what a great choice! With her strong marketing and sales background and negotiating expertise we were able to sell our house quickly and above asking price...additionally she helped us navigate the final legal/closing negotiations to a successful outcome. I would highly recommend Linda for her in-depth expertise, hand's-on approach and overall focus on client happiness
Linda Trevor and the entire team were always professional. She was very responsive no matter what time of day or night we contacted her. The team was wonderful to work with and sold our condo in less than 2 weeks. From listing through closing, she kept us updated on all aspects of the process. We couldn't be happier with the service provided. We recommend the Linda Trevor Realty team to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional Realtor.
You are making a mistake if you don't use Colleen in the Raleigh market!! We started working with her while still out of state. She is incredibly responsive, often within minutes. Once we were in the area the market had changed to the insanity that we see today. When a listing came up in our preferred neighborhood she jumped on it and got the first showing. She provided excellent advice and navigated us to be the winning contract even though we were not the highest offer. She understands the nuances that make an offer better for the seller and more likely to get picked. You could not find someone with better knowledge, drive, attention to detail, and responsiveness than Colleen. I wish the scale had more stars.
Linda was so helpful to me and my wife throughout the entire buying process. We are first time homebuyers (new construction as well) and Linda was able to walk us through the entire process from start to finish. She was always extremely reliable and quick to respond to any of our emails/phone calls/text messages. She was able to negotiate our price below asking as well as for the builder to add blinds at no additional cost to us. We knew that we could always count on Linda and trust her advice. Her team was also extremely helpful in setting up meetings, appointments, and also answering general question regarding the build/lending process. We did finance our mortgage using the VA loan, and her team was on top of everything and all the extras involved in that process with the lending company. Overall I would highly recommend Linda and her team to all first-time home buyers, and military home-buyers in Raleigh!
There were many houses we looked at that went well over asking price and were sold before even being put on the market. Karen took the time to put together a list of showings last minute and meet us next day for walkthroughs. She was consistently available via phone/text and made sure someone from her team was in touch with us throughout the home buying process. Karen helped us navigate a face-paced market to find our perfect home within our budget!
Colleen is absolutely the best realtor in the world! This is the third house my family buys with her help. You can't find an agent more knowledgeable of the local area. She is always available to address any of your concerns and makes sure transaction goes as smoothly as possible. We really enjoyed working with Colleen. She exceeded our expectations with the transactions. She definitely is a 5-Star Agent!
Linda knows the luxury market in Cary. She knows what sells, what turns prospects off, and how to deal with difficult prospects. She made sure someone from her staff checked the house after every showing. Because of her thoroughness, the closing went very smoothly. I highly recommend her.
We chose Colleen as our real estate agent after family recommended her highly. Colleen knew the Apex / Cary area extremely well and helped us navigate the different communities. Colleen always listened to what we wanted and was instrumental in guiding us properly. We decided on building a new home and without Colleen's constant attention to detail, hard-work, and dedication our house would not have been constructed the way we wanted it to be (or on time). She was present at the design meetings, walkthroughs, inspections, and often noticed things that the builder missed. She is an expert in the field and I would not hesitate to use her again. Colleen was always prompt to respond to messages and any issues we had. She is truly an amazing realtor.
My wife and I made a switch to Colleen following months of another realtor and the first talk we had covered so many aspects of buying a home that it became instantly clear why we were not very before. Colleen sets you up for success by making you fully aware of the home buying process from top to bottom. Her responsiveness was far better than mine and even though she is constantly busy, we never felt like we were out of contact which was awesome and was with us at every step from blue tape to closing... even helped us negotiate an item or two.. My wife and I both recommend Colleen, especially to new buyers like us.
ATTENTION TO ALL BUYERS AND SELLERS!!! You cannot EVER got wrong with LINDA. We were the first time home buyers totally hated the he buying process for years, but trust me when I met Linda the first time, I knew within 5 mins she is the kind of professional agent I was looking for to help me with the home buying process. Trust me when I say it it’s 10000% true and she will help you get things done make things happen. She really stood by our side to help me make this process go smooth as much as possible. We also moved from one state to another and were also expecting a new born baby at the same time and I was also getting transferred from my job. She and her team was so responsive and helpful that I don’t have enough words to praise them. Janette is a rock star! and she will help you out in all the steps and process one by one in baby steps. Linda will make sure that she helping you buy the right thing and not just slam a sale and walk away. She is not a one off rookie real estate agent who is just there to make extra money and disappear latter on. She is a shark in this business and has reputation in this housing business back by years of experience. she will teach you, stop you when she thinks the deal is not right, she will look for your interest and then after all is done she will stand by with you for any help needed until to completely settle down. Trust me I am the guy who goes into to every bit of details and scrutinize things before I get into it but working with Linda and her team I never saw any red flags at all. Once you work with her you will be rest assured that you are in safe hands and will never be ripped off just like some non seasoned real estates agents do. Finally I would say one thing home buying is a serious purchase, don’t make panic decisions and have some good professionals like LINDA by your side. When you have professionals like Linda by you side you don’t have to worry and can sleep worry free at night. I will always recommend her in a heart beat for any current or future purchases. I wish a very good luck to Linda and her team! You guys truly rock!
Linda and her team were some of the best and efficient realtors I have dealt with. I have had the pleasure of dealing with Linda when I bought my first home 16 yrs. ago and in the process of selling that home and buying my new home. Her staff are on point about everything they do. They keep you well informed of all that is going on and takes your best interest to heart. I would recommend Linda and her team to anyone and if I ever sale again I will deal with Linda and her team.
Colleen is the best! She is professional, organized, responsive and always available for questions. Colleen was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the selling of my home and buying a new home seem almost effortless. I wouldn't have wanted to work with anyone else!
Working with Linda was a great experience. Not only was she on top of everything during the buying process but she continues to check in and also to provide valuable sources for referrals of vendors from yard care to custom cabinets.
Maya Galletta helped us every step of the way with closing our first home! Being first time home buyers you can't help but ask a million questions and I felt Maya was there to answer them very diligently and professionally. If you want to buy or sell your home hands down give Maya a call and she'll get the job done!
Colleen is awesome. I always strive to find and work with the best, and she checks each and every box. After describing our interests, Colleen provided a list of her top ten communities, noting that one in particular would likely be our favorite. This was helpful as we were 750 miles away during Covid. She was exceptional with her recommendations and follow-up and, when we visited, it became apparent she was right. We ended up buying in the recommended community, and Colleen was with us each and every step of the way. And, now that we completed the closing, she remains very helpful with her recommendations of local businesses who can help with all of our needs. My wife and I strongly recommend Colleen to any and all buyers or sellers!
Cathy Hawkins is amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure I got the best house possible. She was always just a phone call or text away and was very responsive. No matter the time of day she would always reply. She is so kind and always would check in. She’s a go getter, and is definitely an advocate for her clients. If you need someone who knows the area, the market, and extremely knowledgeable, she’s the realtor for you!
Linda and her team were fantastic! They have sold two homes for us, both before or right after going on the market. They always go above and beyond. We highly recommend them!
We were located planning to buy a house in the triangle area and move. Due to COVID we had to do a lot of the search remotely. We chose Colleen based on a large number of brilliant reviews for her online. And she didn’t disappoint - in fact, she exceeded all our expectations. Her expertise in the Triangle area is unparalleled. We are first-time home buyers and her knowledge and guidance made the entire process much smoother. She was always available for all our questions by phone, text, and email. In addition to that, her knowledge when looking at houses on the market is great. She has experience of decades, her knowledge of the neighborhood areas is great, and her eye for detail is amazing. We would highly recommend Colleen and her team for anyone looking at houses in the triangle area. They went above and beyond what we would have expected in a realtor and I would give them 6 stars if I could!
Linda was fantastic to work with she made the experience very smooth. She is very knowledgeable and helpful and we really enjoyed the process. My son and daughter-in-law also bought and sold houses with Linda and they love her and we both give her name to anyone looking to work with a realtor she’s fantastic.
We could not have asked for a better Real Estate experience! We moved to the area from out of town and Colleen not only has a mastery of information on the local area, but she took the time and walked us through everything about buying a home in the area. We've purchased homes in many other states and with other agents and this was by far the best! We plan to both use Colleen again as needed and recommend her to others moving into the area. Thank you Colleen from our entire family.
Maya and her team were fantastic to work with! They were able to help us with the purchase of our new house and the sell of our old house. The buying and purchasing process can feel stressful and overwhelming. However, Maya and her team were super helpful and subject matter experts. They kept us informed and well versed every step along the way. We are thrilled that we now own our dream house! We can’t thank them enough for all of their hard work to get us here!
Karen is awesome to work with. Whenever we had a question, she was quick to respond to our text messages or emails. I know for sure when we go to sell our house that we’ll be calling her. Make sure to ask about her non-profit, Riley’s Army, as well!
Maya, her team, and her family did an excellent job of helping us sell our home. They all pitched in to stage the home, take pictures, and create a virtual tour of the home. We had an acceptable offer in less than 30 days. After that, Maya and team helped us find professionals to attack the punch list of items that came up on the inspection report. She represented us at closing and we closed on time and without issue. We would not hesitate to recommend Maya to any of our friends or family.
Cathy was my agent on my first home purchase. I interviewed several agents before deciding to ask Cathy to be my buyer's agent. What I impressed me most about Cathy was her knowledge of the Triangle home market*s), her flexible schedule for showings on weekends, and her responsiveness to my inquiries (oftentimes after business hours). Then, once I was under contract, she guided me through the process and kept me well-informed until the closing meeting. I'd highly recommend Cathy as a buyer's agent and the Linda Trevor group overall, especially if they are new to the Triangle.
Colleen was fantastic to work with. Her knowledge and expertise were top notch and she helped us through every part of the process of selling and buying. I'm so glad we worked with her and thankful for the effort she put in for us.
I cannot express just how outstanding a partner Cathy has been for us in our home buying process. The market in our area has been insane and Cathy showed outstanding adaptability to the changing landscape of local real estate. She did an outstanding job responding, advising, and guiding through all phases of the process. We felt 100% a priority and 100% advocated for. She's smart, professional, savvy, and has a great eye when it comes to critiquing a property. Do yourself a favor and work with Cathy. She will be what you need and more, no matter what your experience level or need from an agent.
We were new to the area and Colleen was an absolute delight to work with in finding a new home. She was available every day of the week and would always be accommodating around our schedule. Houses move fast in 2020, and she was always ready get us in to see a house on a moment's notice. Colleen really cared about our home purchase and walked us through every step of the process. Most importantly she was very honest and nice :). She found us a great home in Apex and we recommend her greatly!
We worked with Colleen for both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our old home and could not be more pleased. She made the process easy and always seemed to be one step ahead to make sure all the details were taken care of. She always seemed to be available anytime we had a question or concern. She makes you feel like you are her only client and went above and beyond any other realtor we have ever dealt with to make things easy for us. We highly recommend her.
In the crazy real estate market, you cannot get any better than Linda Trevor and team! We recently worked with Linda and her team in both locating and purchasing a new home and in selling our previous home. From the first meeting – that she prepared for and worked in at a moment’s notice prior to a previously scheduled out of town trip – Linda was a joy to work with and made our entire experience stress free. She was readily available anytime we had questions – days, nights AND weekends – and quickly responded to texts and/or email. Linda’s experience and guidance were invaluable in helping us evaluate our options. She arranged multiple visits quickly for the home we ultimately purchased and negotiated an excellent price for us. She also assisted us in the negotiation and sale of our previous home, which went just as smoothly. Linda and her team were fantastic to work with during the entire contract to closing process, handling all of the details flawlessly. Choosing Linda was the best decision we ever made!
Choosing to use Colleen as our realtor was the best decision we made. We gave her a big task - find two homes in a good neighborhood with good schools and a hometown feel. We relocated with my parents who had very specific needs as my father is handicapped. She handled it all brilliantly and man did she deliver! We ended up in the best neighborhood, in two perfect, beautiful homes! She truly went above and beyond in EVERY aspect. From spending two fulls days showing us homes that she knew we wouldn't be interested in, just to give us a feel for the area... to attending every meeting , even if she didn’t have to. Truly one of the most dedicated and professional people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. She was a joy to spend time with and her knowledge of the triangle area is unparalleled.
We decided to move to the Clayton, NC from Dayton, TN to be closer to our son and granddaughter. Maya was recommenced to us by our daughter in-law in sister who knew Maya when she lived in Florida. From the moment we met her she treated us like family. She took her time to listen what we wanted in a home and neighborhood. Then she went out and found our dream home. When our 1st buyer back in Tennessee backed out of the deal to purchase our home, we thought we had lost our dream home in Clayton. But, Maya did not give up, she contacted the home builder and explain our predicament, and they agree to hold our home until we found another buyer. It took us another month to find a buyer and close the deal in Tennessee, but Maya kept the home builder and mortgage lender up to date each week on our progress. Without her commitment to us we would have lost our dream home.
We were referred to Maya and had the best experience working with her. She always gave us her full attention, was very responsive, and knowledgable of the process and market.
Colleen is very diligent, intelligent, and responsive. She goes above and beyond. She even helped me get updates from my loan officer when he was dragging his feet on our very time sensitive appraisal! She was very fast to get any information that I requested on properties that I was interested in. She was also very eager and willing to take me to all of the houses that I wanted to view within a short period of time. Ten out of ten would recommend!! Thank you for everything!
The home buying process can be stressful and confusing at times. Colleen and her team ensured that I would avoid headaches and stay informed every step of the way! In addition to their knowledge and experience, they were extremely professional and pleasant to work with. I will definitely recommend them to all my family and friends!
Maya is AMAZING!!!! We don't have enough words to describe her. She is an excellent real estate agent, her knowledge, experience, negotiations skills and vision are some of her strengths but more than that she is an amazing human being, able to asking the right questions and commit to you to find the house as it was her own. She took all the time to know our needs and mid term plans, our culture and our family to guide us to find the perfect home. Thank Maya we will make business with you again and again. Gracias Querida !!
Amazing job selling our home! We recommend Linda and her team to everyone. They did a fantastic job pricing and staging our house for a super fast sale. Sold for over listing price and closing was basically painless.
We moved to North Carolina 2 and 1/2 years ago and very luckily reached out to Maya. Maya helped us find a rental property site unseen which we ended up loving for two years, she knew exactly what we were looking for! When it came time to buy, Maya took every single detail to heart and found us our dream home, which happens to be down the street from her! Maya is truly the best realtor I have ever worked with and has honestly become family to us. I recommended her to another friend who was equally impressed and found them their dream home as well. Maya is hands down the best, most compassionate and knowledgeable realtor in the area!
Maya is a fantastic realtor and all around person! She is incredibly knowledgeable about real estate, but also goes above and beyond the role of a real estate agent in many ways. We moved to the Triangle a year ago from FL and Maya helped us make sense of the local market, understand the differences in the buying process in NC vs. other states, and compare homes in the neighborhood we were interested in. She helped us make a competitive offer on our dream home in a very hot market on a home with multiple competing offers by understanding what the buyer wanted. When looking at houses, she helped us understand what renovations we would need to make, what aspects of the home drive value, helped us make sense of school districts, think of considerations we hadn’t thought of, etc. Maya is reliable, professional, and a relationship builder. She has great contacts for brokers, general contractors, painters, designers, lawn maintenance, etc. Her network of contacts help us renovate our home quickly and move into our home one month after closing! Maya was wonderful to work with. We highly recommend her to our friends and hope to work with her again in the future.
Maya was great throughout the entire process of buying a home for my parents! She was always making sure things were done on time and properly. She was also very responsive anytime I had any questions!
Linda was referred to us as she was more familiar with the Triangle housing market. Linda was very involved in helping us find the perfect house and neighborhood for me and my family. She was always available to talk and take us on tours of houses. Her vast knowledge of the housing market, neighborhood and the area was extremely helpful in us narrowing down the houses we were interested in. Her suggestion and guidance helped us narrow down to the house we ultimately bought. We could not be more happy with the house and the amazing family like neighbors around us. I HIGHLY recommend Linda Trevor and her team. Every member of her team from realtors to support staff are very professional, courteous and knowledgeable.
We moved to Raleigh a few years ago and finally took the first-time-home buying plunge after being lifelong renters. Maya guided us through the process with candor, patience, and a ton of awesome experience. She is great with relationships and seems to know EVERYONE! We love that as we embark on making the house our own, Maya’s unfailing recommendations and guidance will be as valuable to us as her help negotiating and buying our first house (in a pandemic, no less!). Maya was recommended to us by friends, and we will be recommending her to others.
I have used Linda and her team to buy and sell homes several times, and in each transaction the process was a great experience! Linda and her team are very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend Linda!
Working with Colleen was a positive experience. Being from Nevada, my husband and I were unfamiliar with the customs and laws connected with buying a home in North Carolina. Colleen expertly guided us through the process. She is quite knowledgeable with the market, real estate norms, builders, and distinguishes herself by being so personable. Every phone call or text was immediately attended to. We really felt like we had someone who cared and was in our corner. I would not hesitate to recommend working with her and would do so again.
Linda was an excellent realtor for me on 2 occasions! She is knowledgeable, efficient, thorough, full of integrity... and went above and beyond in helping me. And all that is wrapped up in great and friendly customer service.
We were first time home buyers and Colleen was recommended to us through a family friend. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable from the very beginning and throughout the whole process. We were able to find a home that we absolutely love, a home inspector, a closing attorney, and even someone to refinish our floors once we closed thanks to her help. She was very prompt with answering questions and giving advice when we needed it and made us feel like we were a priority to her. We would highly recommend Colleen to anyone searching for a home in the Raleigh area. She was fantastic to work with.
Colleen was a complete pleasure to work with. This was my first home purchase and she made the whole experience easy. Even from the beginning when I wasn't too set on purchasing yet, she setup listing alerts for me and touched base often. Once I found a New Construction home that seemed to fit me, she helped me on every step of the way. She's extremely knowledgeable in the Raleigh area, and knew a lot about New Constructions as well. She's a great negotiator- she got the seller to include a couple of extras into the deal that I am incredibly thankful for! I'd recommend to her anyone- friends, family, and strangers.
Cathy was so good at listening to what we wanted in a home and using her expertise to help us figure out how our expectations met practical aspects of a house. She patiently walked us through every aspect of the houses we toured. She also has extensive local knowledge and uses it to accurately gauge appraisals. Not to mention, she would always answer our texts, even super late at night. She’s such a great person to have in your corner.
We chose Karen and her team because the experience they had and volume of work they were able to handle. We moved to the RDU area with a short time frame to find permanent housing in an already difficult time with COVID-19 but Karen had no problems finding us our perfect home just a week after we started looking. Karen really went above and beyond for us when we thought we had found a house, but the comps were not where Karen felt they should be. She really took the time to research each comp, talk through them with us, and explain why she felt that house might not be the right one for us at the time. Instead of letting us make a decision that could have ended poorly for us, she really had our best interest in mind and helped us find the right home just a few days later! We can’t thank Karen and her team enough!
Maya helped me choose colors, materials, contractors, etc. While I didn't always use exactly what she recommended, her recommendations were great. I renovated prior to sale. Took out the loan, got the contractors lined up and followed many of Maya's recommendations. She came through over and over again. She put her own energy into the project on several occasions.
Result: It sold strong, within 5 hours of going live, for well over asking. Thanks, Maya!
Cathy is the BEST buyers agent we could ask for ! She made our home buying experience so smooth and was available to answer any questions at any time. She makes sure you understand everything about your new home and really does go above and beyond for you! I would recommend her to anyone, knows what she’s doing and is so sweet!
Where do we begin?! We are so happy that we chose Cathy as our realtor. Her communication, knowledge of real estate, and friendly personality was shown throughout the entire buying process. We were relocated here from another state and Cathy exceeded our expectation by making us feel as though we were right around the corner. If you want an agent who wants the best for you, then call Cathy!! Thank you so much for everything!
Karen is a fantastic person and agent. She possesses strong family values and cares more about you finding a home that you love rather than simply pushing a house to make money. Karen fights for her clients and keeps an open line of communication. If I ever sell this home, she will be my listing AND buyer’s agent, no question about it.
I recently closed on my second home with Maya as my agent and the second time was as good if not better than the first time. Maya is super knowledgeable and helpful with all things real estate related! Another bonus is that she "has a guy" for almost everything you can think of if your new or existing home needs any repairs or painting etc. If you're looking for a real estate agent in the greater Raleigh area definitely consider giving Maya a call!!
Colleen is a professional with a truly great work ethic. She is knowledgeable of the neighborhoods and surrounding areas and listens. When we found our house, she was a pro with the negotiations and even more impressive when it came to the walk-throughs and closing. If you're looking to buy a home in the Raleigh area, she's the only choice!
Don't bother ready any other reviews or agents, believe me when I tell you that you Maya IS the agent you want. Pure and simple. We contacted her, among others in the midst of when COVID-19 to national stage, with a dream and a hope, and she made it happen.
We fell in love with a house that was on the market, but we couldn't buy until we sold our current house, a tough proposition given any market.
Maya had a leave it up to me way of approaching things and she did just that. We had a contingent offer on the home we where in love with, and days later, we had a home sold, above $ and way faster then we ever thought possible.
It's safe to say that we had A LOT of roadblocks that had me believe it could all come crumpling down, yet she handled all of them with professionalism and finesse, she fixed and worked through EVERY problem we had(non-caused by her or the great team she works with). Imagine how hard it is to sell or buy, imagine during both at one time with just 3 days in between each, during COVID-19, she made our dream become a reality and we will be forever grateful!
I have know Colleen for many years and she has a wonderful way about her- kind, thoughtful and funny. We recently had the chance to have her help us with the purchase of a rental property. She is extremely good at what she does- knowledgeable, explains things well, very efficient, diligent and made the process go smoothly. Her office and support staff are very on top of things as well. I would highly recommend Colleen for her sweet disposition and talent as a realtor.
We have 40 years of personal experience with numerous real estate agents. Maya is the best of all the agents we’ve worked with. She is knowledgeable, reliable, responsive, a true partner and a great negotiator. Working with Maya was always a pleasure, she has a very friendly, approachable, patient and calming style, and her talents were key to successfully working through the many potential snags in our real estate transaction. Maya and her team made the process of selling our home much easier. We highly recommend her.
Cathy was amazing. We were moving to North Carolina from Texas and couldn't view homes in person. Everyday Cathy would send us a list of homes that met our requirements. She would personally view all the homes we were interested in without delay. She did an excellent job at researching and examining each home and giving us a thorough report. Thanks to her, we were able to find a wonderful house that met all of our needs in a great neighborhood. We highly recommend her.
Maya helped me buy my first home after helping my parents buy their second. She is so attentive, and has a great working knowledge of the triangle and surrounding areas. She gives great advice to first time homebuyers like myself, and has a network of people she can put you in touch with for financing, renovations and everything else you might need.
Colleen is full of knowledge and really knows the area inside and out!!! She does an amazing job in truly listening to fully understand her clients needs when searching for a home!! I can’t thank her enough for taking care of me and my family during our relocation process to NC! Colleen is the best of the best!! Her agency should feel privileged to have her working for them!!! You go Colleen!!! Thank you again for having my back 100% of the time, even after our home purchase you are still there for us to answer any questions we have moving forward! You are truly amazing!!!
Once again, Maya was exceptional to work with!! This time around, she helped us with both selling our current home and building/buying new construction! She was highly involved every step of the way, always available to answer our questions, and made the whole process much less stressful than we could have imagined. Maya's personality paired with her expertise makes her one of the best to work with!
Maya was extremely helpful in finding us a new home and also in leading us through the entire buying process. Maya went above and beyond in every aspect of our home buying process.
Linda and her team are amazing! They were very responsive to any questions or concerns we had throughout the process of selling our home and helping us find a new home. I would highly recommend her and plan on using her for any future moves!
My husband and I were first-time homebuyers and Maya made the process so seamless. She educated us throughout the whole process and helped us navigate each new step as we progressed. From house to house, she never once rushed us or pressured us to make a decision - She was there with us ensuring we got exactly what we wanted. It was her expertise and networking that helped us get the house that was perfect for our family and I am so grateful. I highly recommend Maya!
What a pleasure to work with a personable, knowledgeable, friendly real estate agent. I relied on Colleen before and after my house purchase. Before for help with design choices and after with help finding local businesses. She was always right on. Call her. You won't regret it.
My husband and I have used Maya as our agent for two home purchases and one home sale. There’s a reason we continue to use and refer her. Maya and her team truly care about what’s best for you, your timeline and your budget. I have nothing but the highest respect for Maya and her team and will continue to use her should we need an agent again. Highly highly recommend!
Colleen was amazing to work with when recently listing my home. She made the process extremely smooth. There are a lot of opportunities for agents to put more effort into other listings or not respond at non-working hours, but Colleen made me feel like my house was the most important home their team was listing and was there every step of the way to answer any questions. She gave great advice on getting the home presentable for listing and also did an amazing job getting it staged. I will definitely work with Colleen in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home.
We’ve now bought 3 homes and sold 2 with Maya. She’s an amazing resource, thoughtful and responsive. I always recommend Maya when folks ask for a reference and we’ll continue to do so!
Colleen was amazing. She went out of her way to make sure our out of area buy and relocating went smoothly. She was in our corner every step of the way. I cannot recommend her enough.
Cathy was very responsive and listened to our needs. Made the entire buying experience a great one. Would recommend her for those selling or coming in to the Raleigh area. Super knowledgeable and easy to talk to.
Karen was a great person to work with during a very stressful time. We moved across country to Raleigh right when the lockdowns from Covid19 were happening. Although the protocols for viewing homes and signing documents was out of the ordinary, we were still able to find a house to call home. Karen is professional and easy to talk to. I am very thankful for the effort she put in to help us make our move as easy as can be. Thank you, Karen!
Linda is just wonderful to work with. We would highly recommend her. She is very professional, polite and responsive. We loved working with her. She helped us find our perfect home.
Linda is #1 in my book. I would definitely recommend her to either sell your house or help you buy a house. Linda sold our house in 1 day in Cary. She has a fantastic team as well.
This was our 2nd time working with Colleen. We will always work with her because she is personal as well as very knowledgeable with North Carolina real-estate. Her team works like a well oiled machine. The process of listing our home for sale was effortless because her team came in and did their job, staging, pictures, video, and advertising. That's why we sold our home in 1 day! In addition to selling, we used Colleen to help us buy a custom built home. She again went above and beyond with helping us navigate the purchase and sale of our home during this current pandemic. Thank you Colleen for all you did for us!
I just closed today and thanks to Maya, it was as smooth as butter. She knows exactly how to work with builders and other realtors to create positive relationships leading to win-wins for everyone. She can quickly identify red flags for properties while also seeing potential. She is direct and honest while also being caring and attentive. Her supporting staff is also wonderful - they are a great team!
Colleen and her team were outstanding in helping my wife and I find our home. She was very responsive and gave honest feedback if we had questions about a home she didn't feel was a great fit for us. We purchased a home that was a new build and she did a great job with negotiating some additional funds to use toward blinds and appliances along with having a very sharp eye to point out areas the builder needed to address during our walkthrough. Would definitely recommend using Colleen for a home search!
We are relocating to the Cary area and needed help finding the right home for our family. Looking remotely was not easy, but with Karen's help we were able to find the perfect home and location. Karen helped us throughout the search and we were able to purchase and close on our home within a short period of time. She is very knowledgeable of the area and the housing market. She is reliable, knowledgeable and very kind. We would highly recommend her.
Cathy help me to buy house in the Raleigh area earlier this year. I would recommend her to anyone buying a house in the triangle and Clayton area. She has all the pertinent qualities for a good realtor, I was extremely impressed with her excellent memory and attention to detail.
Karen was the first person we met when we got off the plane during our big move from CA to NC. She was very supportive and she is very knowledgeable of the area. We ended up renting instead of buying to get to know the area first and she was very helpful in finding a rental. My daughter left her stuffed animal in one of the houses we looked at and Karen was so kind as to go find it for us. Thank you, Karen!
We were looking to move into the state, and knew nothing about the area. Maya came highly recommended from 2 different sources. When it comes to negotiations and processes, she really knows what she's doing and how to do it. All you have to do is believe in her process.
Colleen was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is dedicated and committed to ensuring you find your “dream” home, no matter how long the process takes. She works hard to learn what you are looking for from the onset, paying attention to the details. With this information, she is extremely efficient and respectful with your time. This was important to us, as we were moving from out of state, and limited with time during visits. Most importantly, she is a wealth of knowledge in the area - I would consider her an expert - allowing her to provide super valuable insights. Once you find your home, she holds your hand through the entire negotiation, inspection and move-in process, and doesn’t let anything slip through the cracks. She has quick solutions to every issue that arises. Colleen even checked in on us weeks after the deal closed and continues to keep in touch! We recommend Colleen to anyone and everyone looking to buy a home in the area - in fact, our family members are already working with her!
Karen made my move from Texas to NC seem less. She was always in communication with us and provided plenty of options for my living situation. She was also very flexible with her scheduling (especially during covid). I look forward to working with her again in the future!
This was the second time we used Linda and her team, but it won’t be the last. Her professionalism and knowledge of buyer/seller needs is unsurpassed. Her calm and professional manner soothes the frazzled nerves of her clients thru a process that at best can be overwhelming and at worst stressful. We trust Linda completely and won’t hesitate to use her again. I highly recommend her!
My wife and I met Karen through our relocation service to help us find a home in the Cary, NC area. This was my first home purchase and I was relocating to a new state for a job. Needless to say I found the task daunting! Karen was able to work with us and really understood the special requirements of relocation. We found a home in under two weeks and closed within 30 days. We loved the whole experience. Karen was patient and knowledgeable. We would definitely recommend her and the whole Linda Trevor team to anyone!
I have one word- go with her, forget the rest and thank me later. She will do everything in her power to make the dreadful process less stressful(we were selling old house and buying a new one at the same time). Colleen is always available once she takes up her clients and doesn't hesitate to get her hands dirty whether its getting into crawl space or getting up into attic, we had a last minute issue while selling our house right before closing and she just took it upon her and drove miles late in the evening to have the issue fixed. I cannot stress how important it is for a realtor to be present with you in every step of the process as we had a not so fun experience with our previous realtor, Colleen is nothing but every bit professional. She is a master negotiator and is extremely knowledgeable about the current real estate trends, she is always reachable and responds back within minutes. I will not think twice to go with her the next time we need real estate expertise.
Linda is the consummate professional providing personalized service that is sincere and invaluable. Her ability to guide a client thru an overwhelming process is unsurpassed. Throughout the process of preparing a home for sale and all the way to closing, she is accessible and ready with accurate advice and resources to address any issue that might arise. Her calm and professional manner along with an excellent team, make the selling/buying process as easy as possible. We highly recommend her and will certainly use her again.
I first worked with Maya to buy my first house back in 2016 and this year when I decided I to sell and move up, I did not hesitate to work with her and her team again. She and her team made the selling process easy and handled a lot on the backend for us which allowed my wife and I to focus on packing and moving into our new house. She explained the selling process clearly to us and gave us reasonable expectations for how selling our house would go. In the end, she negotiated a strong offer for us with a quick closing. Would definitely recommend her to everyone!
When I got ready to sell my townhouse, I went searching for a realtor. I wanted someone who was going to be about business, but about me at the same time. I found Linda Trevor and her team and that was ultimately, the best thing for me. My townhouse sold and I decided to rent while I searched. Linda was so patient and easy going with me as we looked at houses. At times I thought I found the right one, but Linda seemed to know it just wasn't it and would patiently answer all my questions, giving me all the information I needed to see it just wasn't the right one for me. When I did find the my dream house, Linda was right next to me, step by step, and made it the easiest process ever. She was my advocate, my business partner, and my friend. I truly enjoyed my selling and buying experience with Linda Trevor and her team and fully recommend her to anyone in need of her services.
Maya was incredible to work with. She is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond for her clients. She was with us every step of the home buying way. In addition to being a great Realtor she's also a really nice person.
Linda and her team were very professional and great to work with! I was in a hurry to sell, as I had accepted a new position out of state, but certainly wanted to get top dollar for my house. I researched to find a top realtor in the area. I have been delighted with my choice. Linda came to my house to meet with me the same day I first called her. Things moved very quickly after that. Linda’s team was remarkable! We had my house show ready, staged, and the most professional marketing materials I have seen in less than two weeks. Linda guided us through the pricing decision where we felt it was aggressive, but attainable. Two weeks after I first spoke to Linda, we took a house hunting trip to the location of my new job. Linda got my house listed midday that Friday. When we got back Sunday afternoon, she had an offer, above list, waiting on us. Then, again remarkably, Linda and her team got us to closing in less than 30 days. I highly recommended Linda and her team to anyone selling or buying a home.
Colleen and her team made the home buying process stress-free and enjoyable! Moving from out of state and buying our first home, we needed needed a professional who was experienced, knew the market well, and would be quick to respond to our needs and questions-- Colleen exceeded our expectations and helped us get into the perfect home! We bought a new build, and were so grateful for Colleen's attention to detail during the walk-through. She knew exactly what to look for, and if it weren't for her, we would have missed a lot of small imperfections that needed to be fixed. Colleen genuinely cared about us and our home-buying experience, and we would recommend her to anyone who is selling or buying a home in the Raleigh area! We LOVE Colleen!!
Linda was recommended to me by a co-worker, and I recommend her to everyone now. Following her advice we ended up getting an offer that was actually impossible to refuse, faster than we thought possible - to say the results were beyond reasonable expectations would redefine understatement. No question she will get another call when it's time to sell/buy again.
Linda and her team were a delight to work with through the process of listing and selling our home. I only wish we had selected her as our first realtor we listed with. The difference she made was incredible. We were living on the other side of the country when we contacted Linda to help us sell our Cary home. Her attention to detail in helping us prepare the listing made all the difference in driving potential buyers to our home. She helped us arrange staging, housekeeping and landscaping to make sure our home showed its best. She provided great counsel as we negotiated with potential buyers and helped us get the most money possible for our home. I would highly recommend her and believe she is the best realtor in the area!
My experience working with Maya was absolutely amazing. I had many concerns not having purchased a home in a few years, but she made it seamless. Provided answers to all my questions immediately, and was a partner in the transaction. I highly recommend working with her, and would not hesitate if given the opportunity.
I chose Linda over several others whom I interviewed because she (1) listened to my specific needs, and (2) told me in advance exactly what she would do to meet these. In contrast, the others each had said, in effect, "I'm great, so trust me, and list with me." That's why I chose Linda rather than one of the others. Did she do what she said she would do? Yes, 110%. Much of what I needed involved help getting ready for the sale because I was travelling much of the time. She worked with me to get the property ready, lining up resources, keeping me informed at every step, not exceeding my budget, and keeping it on schedule. When it was ready, we sold promptly and on target of what she said to expect.
This is the first time we bought a property and we will say that working with Maya was absolutely the best decision we made. Maya is very professional. As we walked through houses, she would point out the advantages and disadvantages and helped us better assess a property. Maya is also responsive, she always replied to our questions in a very short time and always gave a good solution. We are very thankful to her for her help and kindness during the whole process!
Linda was an amazing agent. She was knowledgeable about our area and specifically our neighborhood. She connected us with painters and other services before listing. Our house sold in four days with amazing results!
Colleen was a wonderful person to work with both personally & professionally. Colleen exceeded our expectations of guiding and supporting our family through the stages of building our new home. Colleen was present for every scheduled meeting as well as was always available anytime day or night to talk over any unforeseen related matters, which do occur when buying a new home. Thank you Colleen for your support and dedication to our family throughout the entirety and journey of building our new home. Your positive attitude, support, and knowledge made such a positive impact on our home buying experience.
Maya is the best! I was a first-time home buyer looking for a fixer-upper, and though I did LOTS of research, I still found myself leaning on Maya's valuable experience. She has a keen eye for whether a house is a dud or a gem. Maya is the agent who will tell you like it is, as long as you're open to it. You can TRUST her input since it comes from an extensive background in renovating, managing, and selling properties. I would recommend Maya to anybody and definitely will look to her guidance on the next house.
Cathy recently facilitated the purchase of a home for my wife and me acting as our buyer’s agent. We met her at a place that was listed by Cathy’s agency. We were concerned about her acting as a dual agent. She went out of her way to assure us that she was concerned about us, not just making the sale. My wife and I moved on to look at other properties, continuing to use Cathy as our agent. I found Cathy to be very responsive to any questions we posed to her. She schooled us about every phase of the buying process, offering many helpful tips that we had not thought of. She worked with the complete absence of any pressure, giving us the impression that she was concerned only for us and our needs. When we did get to the point of making an offer, she offered many helpful tips regarding how we could make our offer attractive to the seller. Prior to meeting Cathy, we had some experience with other real estate agents. We found Cathy to be unlike other agents we have encountered. Cathy made us feel as though we were her only client. She seemed to go out if her way to make sure that our experience was one of complete satisfaction. I highly endorse Cathy as a very competent and professional agent.
Relocation is always tough though. Zillow has made quite a bit easier to find homes, though it still misses that human element that Is invaluable. Working with Colleen, not only were we able to view all the homes we liked, we were able to get a real sense of traffic and commute from the wide selection we chose. Having local knowledge of the area helped us decide on a specific locale that met all our requirements. Colleen was instrumental in helping us with that. Through out our experience she was patient and extremely responsive, something that made it much easier for us as we were out of town. We'll gladly recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a home and hope to call her up again in the future when we expand.
We loved Maya from the moment we met her. . .she made us feel very comfortable and always gave us sound advice. She knows the area very well and was able to help us navigate through all of our options since we were new to the area. She treated us like family & we loved our experience with her!
We were very fortunate to have gotten Cathy for our first home purchase. She was always very responsive and guided us on every little thing, even at odd hours of the clock she would promptly respond to our queries, she was very flexible in accommodating our timings. She literally was a one stop shop for our home buying and made sure we got what we were looking for followed by a seamless process of closing.
Very professional and responsive! We fell in love with a home prior to our current home being ready and up for sale. Linda was able to guide us on buying the new home as well as selling the current home. She's a good listener, not pushy and worked on our time line. Even better she's a fierce negotiator. She's got a whole team behind her from staging, marketing, professional photography to assistants. You'll love working with Linda and her team!
Colleen is the best! Always quick to answer and get things done. She helped my purchase my townhome and got me under contract before the bustle of weekend closings. Her team is also on point and in constant contact. Look no further if you need a realtor in the triangle area!
Maya is an amazing agent! She was very knowledgeable in the different areas around town and advised us well on each of the houses we were interested in. She was very easy to reach and really hand-held us through each step of the closing process. Thank you for the awesome work you do! Definitely recommending her and her team to my friends.
We were fortunate enough to meet Karen after our family decided to relocate to Raleigh from Los Angeles. Karen was patient and very knowledgeable of the market. Her gentle but honest advice and years of experience turned to be a great source of comfort during our home buying journey.
Karen always had our best interests at heart and was able to anticipate our needs and put us in touch with other area professionals who have proven to be equally as valuable. Simply put-we absolutely love our new home and Karen made our transition as easy and painless as possible. She is an absolute gem.
As first time home buyers who were earnestly seeking a home for a growing family, Maya provided honest, timely, and personable services. Not even a week after our first correspondence, Maya help us not only find the perfect home for us, but got us under contract! Her knowledge of the market and purchasing process helped make buying our first home a relatively pleasurable experience. In addition, Maya can also refer you to many reputable vendors for home buying and renovation services.
From the moment we met Cathy, we knew she was going to be able to help us find our forever home. Cathy toured multiple homes with us, always with enthusiasm, and was eager to see them all. While she was quick to point out the positives, she also gave honest opinions about the negatives as well so we had a true full picture about the homes as well as the area. Cathy took time to learn and understand what we were looking for and made sure we didn’t settle for anything less! We were always comfortable asking Cathy any question we may have had, no matter how silly it may have seemed! We would recommend Cathy to anyone looking to buy a home in this area, she is truly the best!
Karen was an absolute pleasure to work with. She answered all our questions, took extra time to help us, and really felt like working with a friend as a realtor. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone!
We had a really great experience buying our house in Apex with Colleen! She toured many homes with us, was quick to respond, and was very helpful in the negotiation process. Plus, she's just pleasant to work with. Buying a house in the triangle is stressful - we were always competing with multiple bids, but our second bid was accepted on a home in a very popular neighborhood which we now love!
Linda Trevor is a true professional at the top of the Real Estate business in the Raleigh/Cary area. She and her team generates volume on both the buyer and seller sides of the transaction. I have used her for both and found her to be effective, twice selling within a week of the listing and getting an above average price for my home once above asking price. All agents aren't the same even in the internet age. If you are serious about selling this is the difference you need in any market.
Cathy is the best! We are so thankful that we chose her as our agent. After being recommended by a friend, we worked with Cathy for about 12 months. She’s knowledgeable, communicative, and extremely patient. We never felt rushed into a less than ideal situation - she always had our back. If you’re looking for an agent in Raleigh and its surrounding areas, you can do no better than Cathy Hawkins!
Colleen was absolutely amazing to work with! I cannot recommend her enough. We were coming from out of state and knew nothing about the area, and she really helped us navigate the area and the process. She was knowledgable, personable, accommodating, patient, and on top of everything. She was always quick to respond and made the process straight forward and seamless. She helped us find our dream house and gave us great advice on how to make a competitive offer when it ended up having multiple bids on it. For that we will be forever grateful!
We worked with Maya to purchase our first home in the Cary area. Maya was always super responsive by phone, text, or email (we seriously wondered when she sleeps since we got responses at all times of the day). When we wanted to see a listing, she always got it on the books as soon as possible and at a time that worked well with our busy schedules. While viewing the homes she always pointed out little details (good and bad) that we would not have noticed on our own. Having worked in the industry for so long, she also generally knew a lot of ball-park prices for various renovations, which made understanding final cost a lot clearer and less stressful. Having a professional like Maya on or side definitely helped calm a lot of our first time buyer nerves.
Colleen is hugely helpful, responsive, and dedicated. She was a great asset to us and helped us land the house we wanted in a very quick fashion. We strongly recommend working with Colleen.
Colleen was amazing to work with. She is so knowledgeable about every aspect of real estate and buying/selling your home as well as the market in this area. She was so helpful in handling correspondence with out builder while we lived 10 hours away and there is never a time you text her and she doesn’t respond within five minutes!! So thankful for her!!
Linda Trevor and her group are easily the best real estate professionals I have ever worked with. She and her group are attentive, efficient, and incredibly knowledgeable. They take as much of the stress out of it as possible and take care of all the details, big and small. You feel like you're being taken care of. I would not hesitate to hire them again.
We were referred to Maya for help finding our home in western Wake county, while we were relocating from California. Maya was extremely helpful to us in navigating all of the complexities of the local market in Cary/Apex. She had excellent knowledge of the local areas and subdivisions, both new and old, and provided valuable advice as we worked through the tough issues of selecting location, schools, amenities and neighborhoods. As out-of-town purchasers, we also appreciated the legwork and additional investments Maya made to help us in our search -- from pre-trip research, to blocking out entire days to guide us around the area, to touring homes on our behalf and providing candid, insightful commentary. Once we signed the contract, Maya was very knowledgeable and helpful in the pre-closing and closing process, even going out with me personally to blue-tape the smallest of paint imperfections! And her support has not ended even post-closing, checking up on us and any small or large builder-related issues.
Strongly recommend Maya for anyone purchasing in the western Wake area
Cathy did an excellent job helping us find a home. We were relocating to NC so were working long distance and really appreciated Cathy's knowledge of the area. She was very responsive to anything we needed and willing to go the extra mile showing us houses within our limited time during visits to the area. I would highly recommend Cathy if you are looking to buy or sell a home.
We've worked with Linda and her team on a number of occasions and have always been so impressed with the service that we receive! Great team! Would absolutely work with them again!
Colleen was amazing to work with! My husband and I decided to move our family to N.C. from N.Y. We knew little about the area but Colleen was very knowledgeable and helpful in getting us comfortable with this major decision. She asked the right questions and quickly understood what we were looking for. Colleen was honest and thorough when inspecting homes and providing advice. She spent an entire weekend with us showing us around and we felt like we were spending time with a friend. Colleen was able to recommend resources for each piece of the process and all provided excellent service working seamlessly together to make this a smooth transaction. Even after we made our decision and closed on our home Colleen still provided assistance and remains in touch and helpful to this day. We are so grateful to Colleen for making this major life change such a smooth and enjoyable experience for us!
Linda and her team were great to work with. The photos, 360 tour and other marketing tools were incredible. We also appreciated the staging and ideas offered to prep our 20 year old home for sale. Linda uses the latest mobile phone realtor showing app as well which informed us of showing requests and shared feedback from the showings directly to us. We highly recommend Linda Trevor!
My family and I moved from Southern California to Raleigh in the summer of 2018 - one of the major reasons was to be achieve the American Dream and have a home of our very own. I found Cathy by a combination of luck and following the many terrific reviews she already has. I have worked in title insurance, mortgage origination, and practiced real property law for several years in California and Cathy is probably the most impressive agent I have ever worked with. She was honest, knowledgeable, kind, responsive, and insightful. She went above and beyond and she was spot-on with many suggestions that she made at various points of the transaction that put us in a great position when everything was said and done. We would recommend Cathy to anyone who needs a great realtor!
We selected Maya based on her relocation expertise. We interviewed a handful of agents before selecting one, she was the only one that had any ideas as to how buying in NC would differ from our previous experiences in the midwest--this helped to level set our expectations. She was also the only one that provided a suggested timeline or plan for our visit to the area. With moving as stressful as it is already, its great to have someone who can help you plan based on her many experiences--she does this every day, while we purchase homes only a few times in our lives. That said, she was still flexible to modify anything she suggested. She communicated well, informing us in advance when she would not be available and had others lined up to help us if she couldn't. When curveballs were sent her way, she handled them with ease.
Karen was extremely helpful with our quick 1 week house hunt in Raleigh/Chapel Hill area. She showed us quite a few houses and when we jumped on a new listing, she made things happen, she is awesome, period! Would easily recommend Karen to anyone!
Thank you so much Colleen for everything you did going above and beyond to ensure my experience with first time buying a home was perfect! The knowledge and expertise you provided through out this process was mind blowing! I can tell you we’ve never seen a real estate agent go inside crawl spaces just to make sure everything looked right. You were really impressive and made us feel at ease through out the process. As soon as my father and I met you, we knew we were in good hands. We really appreciate the positive and caring vibes through out this process and look forward to working with you in the future and we will make sure to spread the word to annoying looking to buy or sell any kind of property. I am also happy to have gained a new and trustworthy friend. Thank you for everything!!!!
Maya served us well and had excellent connections for the whole buying and selling process. We used many of her recommended contractors in the process and had good results from all of them. Her sense on the right price for the sale and for the new purchase were right on. And the whole Linda Trevor team proved to be extremely competent and professional (which has been our experience in the past as well).
Linda and her team were amazing! We were looking to sale rather quickly. She was able to get the home listed very quickly! Once on the market, the home sold within roughly two weeks!! The team was attentive, informative and readily assessable. We didn’t have any complaints or issues. I would definitely recommend her!
Cathy is so awesome! My husband and I were looking to buy our first home and Cathy couldn’t have been more perfect. She’s available to chat at any time of day, she’s very knowledgeable and understood what we were looking for, and she really does have her clients best interest at heart. She put up with our thousands of questions and basically held our hand through the whole process, since we had no idea what we were doing. Cathy is amazing at her job and made buying a house seem easy! She’s also a really great person and fun to be around which made everything more enjoyable and we now consider her part of the family. She came highly recommended by friends and we are sure to use her for the next house and recommend her to everyone we know!
Maya is absolutely the finest agent! We purchased a house with Maya's help. You need look no further to find an agent who is professional, knows her market, is savvy with negotiating, and is, well, simply a pleasant person to accompany you on your house hunting quest! We moved here from out of state and appreciated her expertise in introducing us to homes and neighborhoods in the area. Maya was always available is very organized, and responded immediately to any questions we had. She is very honest and pointed out things in houses that we should be aware of, both good and bad. Thank you, Maya!
Colleen is The best in this business. We were buying a house but still lived in Buffalo, She went and video homes for us. Answered every question we had. Her entire team was amazing. She definitely went above and beyond for us. Colleen made buying a house very stress free. Words could never express how grateful we our for everything she did to help us found our perfect home. Very honest and trustworthy
We spoke with two potential real estate agents. After speaking to the first one, I knew that there was no way that the second one would top her. Well, Maya did in every way. She was super easy to work with and extremely helpful. She was proactive in helping us seal the deal on our new home. Maya's team was fantastic, friendly, professional and accommodating. They worked on our time and were so courteous. She met me at the Design Center and basically walked me through picking out all the things that needed to be done. She kept me on budget and was more than helpful in deciding colors for me. Our house sold very quickly due to the outstanding service and marketing they put into the listing. It was overall a pleasant experience. And putting your house on the market is not something I would consider pleasant. They made it as easy as possible. I was proud to have her name on the For Sale sign in our yard. I would highly recommend her for your listing or buying agent (or both).
We recently had Linda buy and sell our homes in Cary and Apex. She was successful with both transactions. We could not have been happier. Linda and her team were all professional, knowledgeable, responsive and trustworthy. I would like to give a special acknowledgement to Janette the closing coordinator who was especially reliable. Linda was personal involved with every aspect of both transactions and generously gave her attention and time whenever required. I would not hesitate to recommend Linda and her team to my friends, family and associates.
Maya is the only reason we have the home we have today. With Maya’s guidance, knowledge, perseverance, kindness and professionalism we were able to secure a contract on a home we loved. First there are her negotiation skills, which are absolutely incredible. Next up is her responsiveness, Maya always returned our calls, emails or messages. Then there is Maya’s team, she has surrounded herself with a great group of professionals. No matter your need, Maya knows who to call to get the answers or to get the job done. We are grateful and thankful for all of Maya’s hard work. She truly loves what she does and it shows every day. We have recently closed on our home and Maya is still reaching out to see how things are going. We would not have this house if it weren’t for Maya going above and beyond every step of the way. Call Maya, you will not be disappointed.
Karen, including the entire team with Linda Trevor, made this home buying experience a pleasant one. Karen fought for us and made things happen. She is awesome. Janette was able to answer many questions for us as well and make the closing process easy. A big thanks to the entire team.
Colleen was the best! She helped us buy a home in Holly Springs when we were relocating from Northern Virginia and out of town during the process. She knows the Raleigh market inside and out and was the perfect trusted advisor for someone coming in from out of state. She is an experienced pro and knows how to navigate anything that pops up during the process. What really stands out for me is that she is proactive, friendly, and amazingly communicative. She anticipated needs at every step and always gave us a heads up on anything that might be helpful. She was available by text/email/phone whenever we needed her. I sent her one house that looked interesting to us, and a bit later that day she had stopped by the house and sent me a video walk-though that she took. We ended up buying that home, and I feel like this extra step on her part helped start the momentum we needed to make a decision.
In short, Colleen is a force! I'll be recommending her to everyone.
Our Real Estate agent in Connecticut found Maya for us and could not have found a better person! Maya was excellent throughout and even correctly predicted the future a few times. She helped with everything from finding a letter to finding us what we told her we were looking for in our initial conversation. She was very patient throughout and made sure that we did a thorough search. In the end, we are thrilled with where we are with everything and Maya is a HUGE reason why.
I specifically was working with Carla and she was amazing. She knew everything to check for and helped us identify potential issues and considerations. We've been in our house for about 2 weeks now and we love everything about it, they helped us find a dream home. Everything she mentioned was spot-on, and I am very happy with everything we got done before moving in.
We recently had Linda buy and sell our homes in Cary and Apex. She was successful with both transactions. We could not have been happier. Linda and her team were all professional, knowledgeable, responsive and trustworthy. I would like to give a special acknowledgement to Janette the closing coordinator who was especially reliable. Linda was personal involved with every aspect of both transactions and generously gave her attention and time whenever required. I would not hesitate to recommend Linda and her team to my friends, family and associates.
Colleen was instrumental in finding us the right house in the Chapel Hill area. She started by showing us several homes that we had identified through on-line listings. Based on our comments and discussions she suggested some homes we had not considered or seen. One of them was perfect for us and was still being built but near completion. There were some items we wanted added so the negotiations with the builder were complex. Colleen was known and respected by the builder and effectively negotiated every element of our issues. Without her, I doubt we would have been able to satisfactorily reach a conclusion. Colleen is knowledgeable of the area, housing choices and prices, and the professionals we needed to complete the transaction. Above all, she was ever-present. She was there for us at every meeting or message; listening, making suggestions or following up on issues or agreements. She is a complete professional and nothing escapes her notice. She was a joy to work with and we would unhesitatingly recommend her.
We were recommended to Maya by a relative and she answered all my questions and was ready to help. She partnered me with an awesome broker that got us approved very quickly and with little hassle. We discussed the area and type of house we were looking for and within a few weeks we toured the one. Maya got to work right away on a great offer that was accepted on the spot. We now have our dream home. Thank you Maya and team for all the hard work.
I absolutely would recommend Colleen to anyone looking to engage in real estate transactions. She tailored her style to meet my experience, and assisted me in both selling my current home and purchasing a new home. She provided guidance without pressure, and was available for any and all questions - regardless of the perceived significance. I appreciated her knowledge of the area and the processes, and her ability to negotiate and provide the a grand overall adventure.
As a first time home buyer, and our first time worker with a realtor, we hit the jackpot having Colleen as our agent! She is incredibly knowledgeable on the buying process and quick to respond with thorough answers. You can tell she has your best interest in mind, and will give honest feedback about the pros/cons of a house. She accommodated our requests to have contractors meet with us for quotes on renovation projects, which we really appreciated. She is excellent at keeping you informed on the next steps in the process, which really helped us as first time buyers. Colleen is an exceptional negotiator, friendly and kind, and very detailed and organized. We would highly recommend Colleen as an agent, and will definitely be reaching out to her in the future!
Linda is an exceptional person who is also an exceptional real estate professional. I met her by chance several years ago when she was representing a house for sale. I was struck then and have continued to be so very impressed with her professionalism, attention to detail and kindness. During my house search, Linda uncovered that new construction would much better meet my needs. And, she stayed with me throughout the 8 month process where I felt she was more my friend than someone I was solely conducting business with. If you want a realtor who believes that finding the perfect home for you matters and is able to negotiate exceptionally well to get the best price then you want Linda Trevor. She is absolutely the best in the Triangle!
Linda is by far the most professional realtor, whose services I have used in my decades of home buying experiences across the country. She made my out-of-state home buying process so smooth and pleasant. She always stays on top of things and is extremely organized and efficient. She and her team provided great assistance and support in our 9-month home buying journey, guiding us every step of the way. After the closing, she ever thoughtfully provided us with a list of local contractors and services providers for our future needs. I have to say my husband and I couldn't have asked for a better realtor.
Linda and her support staff handled all the major and minor details in selling my house. Her close attention throughout the selling and closing process was always on time and made the entire transaction easy.
I could never say enough good things about Maya! As a first time home buyer I was a little on the nervous side about the home buying process, Maya went out of her way to make sure I understood every step we took and was comfortable with the direction we were moving. She provided outstanding support and never stopped ensuring my interests were well represented and protected. She is quick to respond and goes out of her way to be accommodating. It is clear that her desire is that you find your dream home for the right price with as little stress as possible. It was a joy to work with Maya, I absolutely recommend her fantastic services!
Maya represented the buyers of our house and her team member was our realtor. We were planning on a spring sale but Maya drove a couple by who fell in love with it and there was no negotiation about price so we changed our move date to accommodate them. Maya was concerned about us finding just the right home we wanted in another city and very helpful during the move. She even had the home number of the moving company scheduler when we needed to postpone delivery of our furniture on a Sunday night. I would highly recommend Maya.
My wife and I reached out to Colleen based on these reviews and we couldn’t be happier that we did. They are all true. From our first meeting and throughout the house buying process (even past our closing) she has been there to help us out any way she can. Colleen will not only meet your expectations but exceed them.
I really enjoyed working with Colleen. She was incredibly responsive and had excellent follow through and attention to detail. She made the selling and buying process seamless and attended every meeting during the build process. Any time there was an issue, she had it resolved within 48 hours making both transactions easy and stress free. I highly recommend Colleen to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Great listing experience with a very experienced team. We interviewed several agents and decided on Linda Trevor and her team. Very organized and has a distinct process to follow. After decluttering and staging home with input from her team, we listed late Friday afternoon, had nine showings, and four above listing offers by Sunday night. She later brought a backup offer if primary offer backed out. We had a smooth closing about 45 days later and didn’t look back. Highly recommend Linda and her team.
There are a lot of choices out there when you decide to sell your home. Do your homework, interview potential Realtors... in the end choose Linda Trevor and her Team--they are definitely the best!! They do the work and take care of the hassle for you!! We highly recommend Linda Trevor and her team to sell your home!!
Maya is very professional in her work which I appreciate. She is personable and very understanding as to where her client is coming from. She is open and supportive in her client’s best interest. She is an excellent broker with innumerable set of resources with which helps her client to not only find the best home that suits the client , but also assists her client in getting that new home ready to move in and more. Maya is all that I thought she was when we first made her acquaintance, a great person and an excellent realtor!
I am doing a long-distance move from Connecticut to the RTP area. I was looking for someone to represent me locally so that I wouldn't have to fly down for every step of the process. Colleen was fantastic in showing me properties that interested me and helping me make meaningful comparisons. She was there every step of the way and made sure the builder fixed two of the options they messed up.
Moving from Texas and moving to such a hot market to buy a house was very intimidating. I wanted to work with only the best, I was so impressed reading about Colleen's background and review! She met with my husband to show him houses on his schedule, when we found the house we loved she was up late that night getting everything together for us to get the offer in asap! Very early the next morning she was helping us get our offer accepted and based on her advice we got the house we loved! We kept telling her we wish she could have sold our Texas house for us she is the most hardworking realtor we have ever worked with! Highly recommend!!!!
I cannot recommend Maya and her team enough. They helped us find the perfect home, and were very easy to work with and accommodating during the process, considering we were moving from another state and had a very tight time frame. Everything about the closing process went flawlessly. Maya even followed up after we had moved in, and helped follow up on a couple items after the deal was done. This is the third home I've bought, and definitely the first time I've felt like the buyers agent truly cared and was willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were happy.
Linda and her team are the very best. They take care of all aspects of listing to closing in a professional manner. Details get real estate sold and they have the right formula to get it done, thank you very much for selling ANOTHER house for me.
If you're looking to buy a home - Call Colleen! I highly, highly recommend her. I've been looking for a home for a few weeks, and Colleen has been right there for me, every step of the way. She's been extremely helpful guiding me through the legal aspects of buying a home. And equally importantly, she has been extremely helpful in finding a home, looking at the pros/cons of each lot and neighborhood and helping me decide whether the house is a good fit for me or not. She's been patient, she's always available and her work philosophy is to make each of her clients as happy as possible with their purchase. I definitely recommend her.
Karen is a dream to work with, she came recommended as she has helped some of my colleagues find a home, either when they're relocating or just moving locally. I'll now join in with the ranks of her fans and be recommending her to everyone! I gave her an impossible mission: 30 days to find and close and she did it without it even seeming like it was an issue, making it stress free! She found me my perfect home and put me in touch with people she knew could help me hit the 30 day deadline. I should add, the hurricane came in at the end of that window and she was still making sure we were on track for closing while she had no power at home - Above and beyond. If Karen is your realtor, you will not be disappointed.
Linda provided us with exceptional service. After dealing with an issues with our mortgage company that delayed putting our house on the market, she got our house put on the market quickly and within the same day we received 6 offers! Her expertise and knowledge of the triangle area is top notch as well as her professionalism. Linda is not only great, but her entire team is awesome. They provided us with answers to questions the entire way since this was the first time we have sold a home. I recommend Linda Trevor and her team everyone that I know that is looking to buy or sale a house! Thank you Linda!
Colleen was such an amazing person to work with. We moved from out of state and had limited ability to visit properties. Colleen spent entire days driving us all over Wake county and helping us find the right home. She was always looking out for our best interest and carefully examined each property. When we couldn’t see homes in person, she FaceTimed and took videos for us. When it came time to make our offer she really advocated for us and helped us negotiate the final price and fixes to the property. She walked us through all of our options, made sure we understood everything, but still let us have the final say. Beyond her knowledge and expertise, she was just a great person to work with. Extremely caring, checking in to see if she could be helpful and recommending people in the area she trusts. She really made stressful home buying process as easy and stress free as possible.
Karen was an expert at helping us find our new home, and selling our former home. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. She goes the extra mile to help you and is very professional. We highly recommend her.
We recently worked with Maya and the team at Linda Trevor & Co - Compass. Maya was excellent at showing us listings that matched our criteria. After a few weeks of searching, her and the RE?MAX team helped us smoothly close on a great home in Raleigh, NC
We had such a good experience with Linda and I would highly recommend her! We moved from another state and she made the transition very easy for us. Linda and her team were super responsive to our questions and went out of their way to accommodate our schedule. Her knowledge and experience are top notch and we feel very fortunate to have worked with her on the purchase of our new home.
Our family moved from 4 hours away to the Raleigh area and Maya was a God-send to us! Buying a home can be a very emotional and stressful process but she communicated with us in an understanding, timely and personable way that let us know we were in good hands! She was patient as we looked at homes and worked with our schedule as we bought our home while living in a different city. She listened to our needs and wants and together we found our dream home! Maya was not only our real estate agent but she has become our family friend! We recommend Maya wholeheartedly!
My husband and I recently relocated to the Raleigh area from out of state. We wanted to find a realtor who had significant expertise in relocation. I found Colleen on Zillow, she was very highly rated on here and contacted me within minutes of putting a through a contact request to her! I knew immediately from talking to her that we found the right realtor and that there was no reason to continue our search! We flew down to the Raleigh area for 3 days and Colleen dedicated herself to us 100%. Prior to our arrival, she diligently worked to understand our likes/dislikes and requirements in a home/town/neighborhood. She was able to find our dream home for us (that wasn’t even listed on most search engines). We would have never found our home without her. It was due to her significant knowledge of the area, that we were able to pull off what I thought was nearly impossible... finding a home you couldn’t possibly walk away from in just a matter of a few days! I HIGHLY recommend Colleen to other home buyers who are really looking for a personal buying experience and not just looking for another “ordinary” realtor.
Colleen is a fantastic realtor! She's smart, dedicated, and went above and beyond to find homes that suited my wants/needs and always made time to schedule walk-throughs. Colleen picked-up on my likes and dislikes and made the hunt productive and stressless! Her knowledge of construction materials including siding and roofing materials was really impressive! Colleen was always looking out for my best interest, was patient and professional from our first walk-through to the negotiation to the closing. I won't hesitate to recommend and call on Colleen in the future! Thanks Colleen!
Linda and her team were very dedicated to the sale of my home. Their efforts in staging, photographing, and marketing led to its sale the first day it was on the market for more than my asking price. Linda's team was very attentive to all aspects of the closing process. And, she has a wealth of contacts to assist you with the moving process.
Maya is professional, knowledgeable, efficient,approachable, responsive, kind - all of the characteristics of a top real estate agent. She helped us find an on-budget condominium for our young adult children who attend NCSU. She was mindful to balance budget, safety, appeal and investment value. She was instrumental in helping us find contractors for renovations and even helped coordinate UPS deliveries since we live far out of town. Maya's performance as a Realtor was above and beyond my experiences with realtors in the past.
If you need an advocate that will represent you tirelessly, Colleen is for you. Being new to the area, she was attentive and listened ( a rare characteristic now days) to what i wanted, not to what she knew was for sale close by. We covered the area inside and out in an effort to meet my housing specifics. Her knowledge of the area, what's happening in the market kept me ahead of the curve in an environment that was moving fast. Once our bid was placed, she worked late into the evening to hammer out a commitment from the seller. She handled negotiations like a true professional and with MY interest in mind. I'm in my place because she was relentless to complete the details and provide support thru the entire buying process. If you want it done and done right, insist on Colleen!
Linda Trevor was an incredible real estate agent to work with. She is very responsive and is good at making you feel like you’re her only client. She is very knowledgeable about the Triangle area and what it takes to be competitive in the market. Everyone on her team was great to work with too! She had lots of connections/recommendations for service companies you might need in buying/selling your house. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely use Linda and her team again if needed!
Karen has worked with us as first our buyers agent and then again as our sellers agent for a separate property. We went with Karen as our sellers agent because we knew she would do the job right. She has very high standards and presents them honestly. With both transactions, she was very professional. She negotiated for our standards successfully, offered guidance along the way, and really created a sense of quality customer service from her and the Linda Trevor team.
Maya was invaluable to us. With her knowledge of the area, and expertise in choosing a home, we found the perfect place for our family. Her professionalism is unmatched. She is very thoughtful and took our family needs to find a neighborhood that fits our needs. We also enjoyed her company. We would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a house in the area.
Our experience with Colleen was easily the best we’ve ever had with a realtor. We only had a couple of days to look at as many homes as we could. She did so much prep work to make sure our time was as efficient as possible. She also took the time to get to know us and our needs very well, so that we could focus on homes that would meet our criteria. I think one of the things that impressed me the most, was how well she communicated with us- always quick to respond, reminding us of important milestones, and keeping us up to speed through the whole process. Not to mention that it always felt like she was “in our corner” when it came to negotiations, etc. We can’t say enough good about Colleen and our experience with her.
Linda and her team are excellent! They are patient, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. We felt comfortable and in control throughout the buying process. We will definitely seek Linda's help for any future purchases!
Maya is amazing! At the time of our purchase, we were living in Boston. We flew in for 5 days to look at houses. Maya was very prepared and made sure we didn't waste a moment of our time. She listened to us carefully (and patiently). She always made time for our calls. She helped us narrow down what was really important for us in a new home. By the end, she managed to find multiple homes that we liked. She helped us through the buying process, which was a little unusual since we were making the purchase remotely. She stood in for us during the house inspection and any other situation that required someone to be there in person. We would not hesitate to recommend Maya to our family and friends.
Karen understood what we were looking for, she was very patient with us searching for a home. I liked that she will let us know about homes that matches what we looking for as soon as they listed or few hours in the market. it was nice working with her.
Colleen was a joy to work with. We had a different realtor before Colleen for six months with no luck in offers being accepted. Once we went to Colleen, we were in our new house in just over a month. The two offers we put in with Colleen were both accepted. She really helped us as put together the best offers and explained the process for us as first time home buyers. Colleen was quick to respond to texts and emails any day and at any time. Her knowledge of the area helped us with finding what neighborhoods we would like to live in, and how much a house would typically go for if it was priced below the comparable houses. Once we got our offer accepted, Colleen was able to recommend all the professionals we needed to make sure we met our due diligence date. Above all else, we felt Colleen went to bat for us throughout the entire home buying process, from choosing which homes to look at, helping craft the best offer we could afford, negotiating terms with the sellers, all the way through closing.
Our house hunting experience was a whirlwind, and it was great to have Maya's guidance from the get-go. Relocating from the West Coast to Cary, with little time to do it, we needed a responsive realtor with area expertise who would internalize our needs and jump into action. And Maya did! She quickly grasped our particular tastes, educated us about the area, and helped us negotiate the purchase of a home that we love, in a neighborhood that is perfect for our family. On top of it all, she was an excellent facilitator of some home updates that took place prior to our move. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Maya.
Linda and her team were very responsive and professional. I loved working with Claudia who staged our house. Linda is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market and priced our house so well it sold above asking in one day! Highly recommend the Linda Trevor team!
Knowledge, flexible and personable. Helped us find what we were looking as opposed to showing us what she wanted us to buy. You'll be glad you chose Colleen to help you find your next home.
Maya Galletta is an incredible person. She worked very diligently for my family and I and was very quick to answer any and all questions we had. She always answered promptly and made sure to take care of us in regards to providing useful information and knowledge that we initially had no idea about. She is a very smart and has so much experience. We will definitely be going to her again when we want to buy/sell again and I will definitely be referring her to all my friends and family that are looking to buy or sell their property. Do not hesitate to call her and get the ball rolling. You wont regret it!
Karen helped us buy a house in an area we were not too familiar with and we really can’t say enough good things about her. She is knowledgeable, approachable, and a great communicator. We absolutely recommend her for your house buying/selling needs
Linda Trevor and her team were professional, knowledgeable, and gracious. Due to family needs, we had to sell our house quickly. Linda's team came recommended highly. We interviewed three other agents and are so glad we went with Linda. She was fair and honest in her assessment of the house; her design and photography team was spot on; and our contract came within 48 hours. But the attention to detail did not stop with the contract. Linda's team kept us informed every step of the way about what was happening, what they needed --along with a helpful timeline. This protocol was especially helpful since we were between two states at the time. From our first meeting to closing, we were in good hands. I would not only recommend Linda's team, but I would use them again without hesitation.
My wife and I moved to the Raleigh/Durham area from out of state and were not familiar with the area. Colleen was knowledgeable of the metropolitan area and steered us away from potential problem properties due to future road construction. She provided excellent full service expertise throughout the home buying process and has continued to be our advocate after the sale!
Linda and her team were amazing. Linda helped us find the right place to purchase, negotiated a great price, and then sold our previous home on the first day on the market at well above our asking price. She and her team were always patient, supportive, and responsive. We are very happy with our decision to work with Linda Trevor.
We were referred to Karen through Epic Games and are honored to have worked with her these past few months. She walked us through every step of the way, provided great insight regarding our target neighborhoods, and helped us think of ways to make our offer stand out amongst the crowd. Thanks to Karen, we are now proud owners of an amazing home!
Our experience with Colleen Lawrence was nothing short of spectatular! We are a military family that has moved over 12 times in a 29 year career and bought six houses. Colleen by far was the most knowledgable and professional real estate agent we have had by far. She quickly grasped what we were looking for and helped us negotiate a fantastic deal on a wonderful dream home. She is an agent that will go to the mat to ensure you are taken care of and get what you are looking for in a house. We closed in under three weeks with a VA loan due to her diligence and attention to detail. All inspections were lined up with very respected inspectors and she has an impressive network of folks to help with any repairs needed. Colleen is extremely responsive with emails, texts, and phone calls- always ensuring you are her priority. Her knowledge of the area, local market, schools, and local hot spots is impressive. Wish we had her for our other moves. Totally trust her judgement and advice. Highly recommend her for your next house!
Karen,is not only a fantastic agent but such a wonderful person. She was and is a very caring person. Karen was on top of everything for us,in the purchase of our new home.I would recommend Karen to everyone. She is a top notch professional.
Colleen is by far the best realtor that we’ve ever worked with! She was knowledgeable about the area and the buying process. Colleen is always quick to respond and willing to find out answers to any questions about the property. She genuinely wants her clients to be happy and to have an enjoyable buying process. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely be calling her for my next home sale/purchase!
Maya did a wonderful job in helping us find our perfect new home. We had narrowed down the area in which we wanted to be and she found the perfect home for us. She has also been very instrumental in helping us find qualified experienced contractors to assist us with anything extra needed with our present residence as well as the new home we bought. We couldn't be happier. My husband and I highly recommend Maya. She'll do a great job for you.
Colleen not only met our expectations but exceeded through her hard work and incredible attention to detail. Colleen was always a call away if any questions arose which they didn’t because she is that great.
Linda Trevor is a gem of a realtor! She and her team worked quickly and efficiently to sell my house as quickly as they could. Linda personally came to the house to discuss the details and her plan of action. She made sure that my house was viewed by as many people as possible. If and when I am ready to move again, I will be calling Linda Trevor!
Colleen was fabulous to work with. She was always available to help with anything that needed to be done. She was always kind and her positive attitude help make the selling process more enjoyable. She was reliable, knowledgeable and dependable. I will recommend her, and her entire team, to everyone in need of realtor assistance.
Karen was excellent! Quickly responds to emails/calls and was always available. Any concerns we had, she was excellent about researching the answers and providing us with everything we needed to make a decision. She was great about checking in and seeing if there was anything else she could do to help. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area!
Maya made buying our home an easy and fun experience. As out of state buyers, we relied on Maya's experience and knowledge of Wake County. She handled any and all issues that arose and assured us all would be be well. She made us feel as if we were her only clients
We have just recently closed on our home in North Raleigh, thanks to Colleen, and ended up choosing a fixer-upper, even though we are moving from out of state. Colleen made the whole process as easy as possible, with a lot of patience for our endless questions and requests. She followed up on every last little detail for us right up through closing day to make sure everything agreed to in the due diligence request had been carried out responsibly by the seller. And since we were unable to be there for many steps of the process as out of state buyers, she went the extra mile for us over and over again, such as meeting up with the home inspector, checking up on repairs in progress following the home inspection, picking my husband up at the airport for a final walk-through just before closing, and even meeting up with a locksmith on our behalf after closing so we could have all the locks re-keyed. We found Colleen to be very knowledgeable about the Triangle area, and she took the time to really try to get know us and what we were looking for in a home. We can't recommend Colleen highly enough.
Linda and her team are amazing. I recently relocated from Boston to Apex NC. I got in touch with Linda and her team and I could not have made a better decision. Linda toured me around the triangle until I found the location that I wanted. Linda and her team worked with the different rental agencies for me to help me find my perfect rental home and did so with such professionalism and dedication. I can't wait till I'm ready to purchase my next home with Linda and her team!
Colleen is awesome! She goes above and beyond for her clients and we highly recommend her as a buyers agent. She pushed a structural issue with a developer who ended up reworking several areas of the home to our satisfaction and it would not have happened without her insistence.
This has been at least a 3 year process since we first connected with Karen. As planners we wanted to make sure we researched the areas that we would want to settle in once we got to NC. Karen was great at feeding us new homes that came on the market and adjusting our "must haves" as we began to narrow our decision on location. She was always available to us when needed. Karen handled our up and down emotional roller coaster throughout the closing process with gentleness and understanding. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you Karen!
Maya was very helpful during the entire negotiation and closing process. She arranged all of the legal requirements and help us with getting our loan. After the closing she was been very helpful in getting this excellent contractors to do additional work that we wanted done.
Maya was great throughout the whole process. Originally I had been thinking that new construction was out of my price range, but she helped me broaden my search and find a great deal on a new house that I am very happy with. She was able to offer guidance about every step of the home buying process and even referred me to a much better local mortgage lender than the chain groups I was talking to.
Working with Colleen made the home-buying process easy and smooth for our family. Colleen is very responsive and informative, answering in and all questions we had along the journey of home buying. We bought a new construction home, which required several meetings with the builder/sales representative. Colleen was present with us for our meetings And made sure we were comfortable with the building progress and working with the builder. We would highly recommend Colleen to prospective home buyers we were very happy with our experience!
Karen is fantastic! We had very specific needs and Karen understood them completely. She sent us daily emails of new houses on the market and was quick in responding to our questions and requests. She understood our schedule and was always ready to show us homes we were interested in, and moved fast on making our offer. She also knew the areas so well, and kept on top of things. She made our closing also very easy, and communication with the sellers was amazing. Karen bent over backwards, especially when our new home hadn't been cleaned by the sellers and immediately had a cleaning crew in the home within hours! Karen is not only very professional but is also so nice, we feel like we have made a friend for life. We will recommend her and her team to everyone.
Working with Linda Trevor and Company was the way to go when purchasing our second home! My family and I moved from out of state and she was always available to help day or night. Her staff was even available and they are great and friendly to work with. Linda took her time with us to make sure we purchased the right home for our family. We couldn't have ask for anyone better!
Colleen was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was extremely knowledgeable, thorough and paid great attention to detail with phenomenal follow up skills. She went far above and beyond to exceed our expectations. For example, when I expressed concern about whether a subdivision we were considering purchasing a house in would have a friendly community, she came back to me within hours with several names and phone numbers of residents in the neighborhood that she had already confirmed would be willing to speak with me. Between my husband and I we have had 8 relocation's and Colleen is by far the best realtor that we have ever worked with. We cannot say enough good things about her and truly feel that we have gained a friend in this process! We would not work with anyone else and we will absolutely choose Colleen again in the future. Thank you Colleen - you are fantastic!
Colleen Lawrence is the kind of real estate agent that everyone buying a home would hope to have in their corner protecting their best interest on such a important decision. The first agent we had didn’t work out, but she stepped right in and she never missed a beat showing other homes but most importantly helping us get the home that we really wanted we believe she is exactly what we prayed for. If in the future you allow Colleen to work for you she will truly give her all and rest assured she will do everything in her ability to get the one you really want. Thank you Colleen for helping us fulfill our dream as homeowners at this phase of our lives. God Bless You!
We would recommend Maya to all our friends and family. We worked with Maya and her team through the purchase of our first home. Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure to be available for every step of the process. She guided us through what to look for, what to shy away from, things that were/were not a big deal and ensure we were making the best decision. As we communicated any questions or concerns, Maya was very transparent with the information we needed in order to make a decision and comfortably continue forward with the process. Maya treated us like her own family! At no time did we feel like we were just another "customer" or "buyer" to her!
Linda Trevor sold my home in just one day! I was amazed and impressed at how quick and easy the process was, thanks to Linda and her team. Linda was extremely professional and took the time to explain each step of the process. I highly recommend Linda and her team, they all worked together to get the job done in a timely manner. We are very thankful to Linda!
This was our first time buying a home and Maya was with us every step of the way. She helped navigate us in such a way that assured us we were in great hands. She is caring, honest, knowledgeable, and readily available. I'm especially grateful to her for her calmness and level headedness when unexpected situations arose in the building process. Were it not for her I would've been at my wits end one too many times! Highly recommend without hesitation.
Linda Trevor did an excellent job of selling my house! Linda was actually the second realtor I called. The first realtor came to my home totally unprepared and recommended a ridiculously high listing price -- higher than the listings for larger / nicer houses in the same area. And my house needed a lot of work! So I called Linda, who was fully prepared when we met. Linda arrived with listings for comparable sales and quickly identified the features of my house that would appeal to buyers, as well as the problem areas. She recommended a very realistic listing price. Her team did an amazing job of photographing the house and creating the marketing material for the listing. Two strong offers came in the day after the house went active on MLS! The sale closed in a month. Linda and her team kept me updated every step of the way. I definitely recommend Linda Trevor!
I'm so glad I chose Maya as a seller/buyer agent. She is professional, knowledgeable and caring. She is readily available whenever needed. She goes above and beyond to negotiate the best deal possible. After closing, she is still there for me. Who would not want a real estate agent like that?
Linda Trevor and her team helped us to sell and buy a home. They were very professional and responsive. Thanks to their hard work, our home went under contract within 48 hours! They guided us through the selling and buying processes so that we understood what was going on and what steps would happen next. They kept in contact with us and were available any time we had questions. Linda also went out of her way to assist us through difficulties we encountered along the way. We sincerely enjoyed working with Linda and her team and appreciate all that they did for us! We will recommend them to EVERYONE we encounter who needs a real estate agent.
Colleen was great in helping us find the right home! She patiently stayed with us for almost 2 years till we found our dream home! She is knowledgeable about the area and the processes. Colleen isn't pushy and will tell you when she sees something wrong in a house. This quality of her helped us make the right decisions along the way. She is always there to answer questions (even on vacations!) and guide you when you are stuck! Great job Colleen!
Linda helped me with both selling my home and purchasing new constructions. Throughout the process she was professional, courteous and honest. She provided me all the necessary resources to sell a high end home at market value. I would definitely recommend her services.
To cut to the chase: Stop searching and use Maya as your real estate agent. If you: - Have very high expectations of people - Demand excellent service - Desire a highly skilled agent with many years of experience - Want someone to really listen to and understand your needs Then Maya will be a great fit for you. She helped us through literally every step of the home buying process, from determining whether to buy a house or build one, through the design process of our new construction, through inspections, closing and after. She still supports us even though we've closed two months ago! On top of all that, she is a great person. If you decide to work with Maya as your agent, she won't be just your agent - she'll be a friend. We've hung out outside of work, such as going out to dinner and visiting their home to hang out with her and her family. Real estate is not a transactional service to her - it is about building relationships and improving the lives of others. Maya - you're the best!
Maya went out of her way to help us purchase a home. We called her on short notice and it was also a holiday weekend and had only the weekend to find a home and she was ready for us with both listings she researched and ones we wanted to see. She made sure we saw all the available properties in the area. We were relocating from Pennsylvania and knew nothing of the area and she was very knowledgeable of the area. She made our house buying experience a great experience.
My Wife and I recently just moved here from Fort Lauderdale FL. We were relieved and very thankful we found Linda Trevor and her team of professionals. We found everyone we dealt with to have great work ethic, responsiveness, attention to detail and quality of responses. The closing was done record time....UNDER 20 MINUTES! Guess that's says it all.
Maya was a pleasure to work with. She had great knowledge of all of the surrounding areas we were searching for our first home, and didn’t hesitate to show us any property at any place at any time. We would definitely fully recommend her and use her services again in the future!
Karen has gone above and beyond for us time and time again. We recently purchased a second property through Karen, and despite living on the other side of the country, the process could not have been smoother. Every hurdle that is thrown Karen's way in the process of the search, offer, and purchasing stages, is handled smoothly and without unnecessary stress.
When faced with a fast paced relocation due to a Promotion We contacted Maya Galletta with Linda Trevor RE/MAX. Maya jumped in with 2 feet. She meet us the next day at our home. She fully explained the process, offered reasonable suggestion to enhance the appeal of our home, and provided us with multiple resources to get various upgrades completed in a very timely and cost effective manner. With Maya Galletta and Linda Trevor RE/MAX we just didn't get a Realtor, we got a Team of professionals to help us every step of the way. We can't thank Maya and the team enough for making the sale of our home a fast and smooth process.
Maya was an excellent partner to have while my family and I relocated from Washington State to North Carolina. She went above and beyond the call of duty over the course of the several months we worked with her. She was very knowledgeable, willing to find answers and a treat to be around. I couldn't be happier with her and her team.
We recently moved from out of state and we are so happy that we found Maya to help us find our new home. Maya was responsive, knowledgeable and patient with understanding our needs. She was able to accommodate our schedules and listened to what we liked and didn't like as we saw properties. It was also incredibly helpful that she attended to some items with the builder as we were not able to attend to them being out of the state. She regularly checked in and had high expectations of the seller in making sure the house was ready for our arrival. Thank you Maya!
Colleen is a fantastic realtor. She responded to any questions quickly and thoroughly. We really felt like she had our backs during all negotiations and she went above and beyond with recommending contractors for just about anything you might need for your house after closing ie: repairs, cleaning, painting, etc. Everyone she referred has been great to work with. Absolutely would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.
Maya was exemplary throughout the whole home buying process. As a first time homebuyer the process can be daunting with all the small easy to miss details, but Maya was able to easily describe and explain those so I could immediately focus on what would matter most to me. Maya always had suggestions and options on neighborhoods, lenders, contractors, tactics, could work around schedules and would never let me do something she knew I would dislike in the future. I love my new home and would absolutely recommend Maya to anyone on the search for a new place to call home.
Colleen was wonderful to work with! My husband and I were first time home buyers and she made the entire experience so easy. We could tell that she always had our best interests in mind. She was diligent, quick to respond, and honest. I am so glad that we had the chance to work with her and would highly recommend her to other home buyers.
My husband and I have moved extensively throughout the years, and we can highly recommend Maya. She is responsive, attentive to detail and an absolute pleasure to work with. Before you decide on a realtor, you owe it to yourself to give Linda Trevor and her team, especially Maya Galletta an interview.
Linda is a consummate professional and a supportive guiding hand through the entire process of buying and selling a house. (I've used Linda for both.) She is honest when asked for advice and responsive to requests for information. Her team is great to work with and I always felt like I had a support group. The advice about how to stage my house was spot on and the house showed beautifully. My house sold quicker than I expected for the price I wanted. I highly recommend Linda and her team!
My wife and I were first time home buyers and Colleen was referred to us from a friend. She did an incredible job and really exceeded our expectations of what an agent does for buyers. She patiently walked us through each step, always put our interests ahead of her own, and made sure we had a little fun along the way. Simply put, I would recommend her to anyone.
Selling our home with Linda and her team was the best decision we made. Linda is an expert in this market and knew exactly what needed to be done so that we could finally make our move to the beach. She was always quick to respond to our questions and was there throughout the entire process to make sure that everything went smoothly. Her team is easy to work with and handled everything with the utmost professionalism. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we would recommend Linda and her team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Buying home is never easy and it makes worse if your first time home buyer. But with all that said, having Maya besides as our realtor, we never felt that pressure. She made the entire process so smooth. She understood our needs and took to our dream home. She is extremely knowledgeable, very accommodating, responsive and most importantly she goes beyond her duty, She will stand for you in every moment. The best part she keeps the continuing relationship with the customer even after closing.
Linda Trevor and her team were wonderful. Very professional, kind and courteous. Once our home was listed we got a great offer within 48 hours. The whole experience was great and I am very grateful.
I just have to say Colleen is so amazing! She will go to great lengths to make sure you are very happy. She knows this area so well. Colleen takes the stress out of buying your home. We are very thankful that Colleen was are realtor. I recommend her to everyone!!!!
Maya was always quick to respond to any questions I had, even when she was supposed to be on a European vacation! She absolutely made the experience easier and had no problems helping me through my first home purchase.
Colleen was such an asset to our house hunting. She accommodated all of our searches, and was SO proactive on her response to ANY questions I had. By the time I checked my phone...the answer was there. I had known her previously in another working life. She was good there and is even better in her real-estate life. Her passion and love for what she does shows in every aspect of the process. She would even keep appointments for me when I could not get to them. It was a bittersweet move for my husband and me, but she made the transition smooth and painless.
My husband and I just relocated from California, and we were first-time home buyers. Maya spent a lot of time explaining all the local areas, showing us around, and was incredibly responsive and patient with our questions and needs (not to mention she is so fun to talk to and be around!). She truly goes above and beyond to be available and responsive. Buying a home is never easy, but you can trust that Maya will represent you well, knows the intricacies of the market, and will find your perfect home! She also has the best resources...from contractors/painters to mortgage lenders to restaurants, you can count on the fact that she knows the best! This has proven incredibly useful being new to the area and to North Carolina. Her whole team were quick, responsive, professional, and thorough. We are incredibly grateful and excited for our new home and are so glad we had Maya helping navigate us through the process. We recommend Maya and her whole team whole-heartedly.
I have bought several properties over the years and have a background in sales and service training. I am probably what most agents would refer to as a difficult client. Colleen is by far the best person I have worked with as a buyer's agent. She was responsive and went above and beyond my expectations with her support and local knowledge. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone in need of a home. She really hit it out of the park for us!
Colleen was excellent. Buying a house has many steps and challenges that most people won't know or remember from the last time they bought. She was great at helping us out though the process and helping with questions we had. She is also very knowledgeable about homes in the area. Negotiating was one of her strong points. She had a good feel about where to start the negotiating to get the price where wanted it.
Being new to the NC triangle area and being first time home buyers, we wanted to find a buyers agent who could guide us though the home buying process. We found the perfect agent with Colleen. Since the first conversation, Colleen was on top of everything. She is very friendly and does not hold back if she finds something of concern with a house. Colleen was very patient with us in finding a house that matched our criteria, and we did thanks to her. There's quite a lot that goes on when purchasing a home and Colleen guided us step by step, meeting timelines and keeping communication lines opened. We're very thankful for her and her team
You truly will not find a better agent than Maya. She is always very accommodating, flexible, responsive, and has excellent communication. She anticipates a buyer's needs, is very resourceful, and has a breadth of knowledge of all things real estate-from the initial purchase through complete remodels. Always willing to go out of her way, show many homes without any qualms, and give her honest opinion, Maya took all the work out of the offer/negotiation process, so all I had to do was show up. I am glad we chose Maya for our realtor, as we not only found our new home, but also a new friend.
Colleen is very organized and efficient! She accommodated our difficult schedules and showed us houses in the afternoon to convenience us. She even traveled quite a ways out from where she would normally show houses because we changed our minds on where we wanted to buy. She always seemed to be one step ahead. We would ask a question and she either already knew the answer or she answered it before we even got to ask. She is very detailed and takes care of everything. She is also very quick to respond and always friendly. She is also great at negotiating. She was able to get us more for our money than we ever thought possible. The goal was to ask for more than what we thought we would get so in the end we would get the few things we actually wanted, but Colleen was able to get it all! She also had great recommendations for the lawyer and bank we should use. Our closing process only took about 45 minutes, which amazed us considering we had close friends that just closed on a house and it took them 4 hours! Overall VERY happy and LOVE our new home! This is all thanks to Colleen, because without her we wouldn't have even known where to begin!"
Karen is a top-notch agent who will be there for you through the entire process of buying and/or selling a house. She is honest and caring, ensuring that you get the best deal possible on your property. Within 1 week we had multiple offers! I highly recommend Karen to anyone.
Maya was such a joy to work with in finding my first home! She worked hard to make sure I received everything I was promised by the sellers. She looked out for me with things that I wouldn't have even thought of-very knowledgeable!! I will definitely use her when I buy my next house!
If you're looking for a house, without a doubt, call Karen. She was always readily available, returned text, calls, and emails right away. Anytime we wanted to see a house, she made it happen. Because Karen is originally from here, she is very knowledgeable of the whole area. We truly loved working with Karen, she made what could have been a very stressful experience, a fun and enjoyable one. Thank you so much Karen!!
Our friend recommended Maya because she said "Maya is a beast in the realty world" and we came to realize how true that statement was. She truly fought and negotiated in our best interest when we sold our current home and bought our new house. She is diligent, professional, and very knowledgeable. The process of selling/buying can be stressful but she honestly makes it fun and exciting. She gets it done no matter what it takes and that's why we will continue to recommend her to everyone we know. She is definitely the realtor you want if you plan on buying or selling your home.
In the last 6 months, I have bought and sold a home. I could not have asked for a better experience. Karen is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with her time. She answered every question and explained every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. I highly recommend her.
She is amazing!! I am a very demanding client expecting quick response times at midnight. I bet Colleen absolutely hates it but she is always very, very quick to respond. She is awesome. Will definitely use again. She is the 2nd home she has helped us purchase.
Honestly, Karen is legit. She knows what she's talking about and is well informed. We were first time buyers, and we noticed that she doesn't just do her job for the money, she genuinely cares and even compares the houses she hunts with you to her own experience. I'm surprised that she knew more information than the Sellers agent, so yea she's good. I honestly don't feel cheated and I'm glad Karen was around to assist us. P.S. She likes avocados!
We were relocating from Connecticut to North Carolina and when I tell you that Colleen made our house hunting seamless; I truly mean it. She was always prepared, professional, incredibly thorough, educated about multiple locations, and although most don't consider, she always thinks about resale and your needs are her needs. And as for her negotiating skills, prepare to get more than you could imagine. I would recommend her with the utmost confidence to anyone!
We were referred to Maya by one of colleagues and we could not have been happier with our experience. She is unlike other realtors, who really knows the local market and the business of realty. Her 18 years of experience shows throughout the home purchasing process. She spent a lot of time getting to know us and showed the properties that we were real candidates. Should we ever be in need of another property I would have no hesitation in calling Maya. At the end of home purchasing process, we not only got our dream home but also a wonderful friend.
I would highly recommend Linda. I know the property will sell if we list with Linda Trevor and her team. I also appreciate not attending the closing due to Linda's team handling all the details.
We were relocating from NJ to NC, and Maya helped from end to end in buying a house (house search, mortgage, inspection, and a lot more). She is very knowledgeable and has excellent negotiating skills, when it comes to builders. HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone!
Colleen and the entire staff at Linda Trevor RE/MAX were AMAZING. She knows the area well, is super responsive and reliable, has great connections, and makes every transaction run smoothly. She was on top of every step of the process. I can't recommend her and her team enough. Besides being super professional, she's also a great human being, and at the end, felt more like a friend than a business representative. We will use Colleen and her team for all of our real estate needs moving forward.
Linda and her team provide excellent, courteous and professional customer service. They made the process of listing and selling my townhouse so easy. It sold in three days! Linda and her team walked me through each stage of the process and handled everything with great efficiency. They went above and beyond my expectations. I would definitely recommend Linda Trevor and Company.
Maya is fantastic! She recently helped us with the purchase of our new home and the sale of our old home. She is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and was able to put us at ease throughout both the buying and selling processes when we ran into issues or had concerns. Maya is very detail oriented and is always looking out for the best interests of her clients. We could not have asked for a better agent to help us through this process!
Colleen is amazing! She is always positive and complies with any request - no matter how busy she is. Colleen has top-notch negotiating skills, always putting her clients' needs first. She is cheerful, fun to work with and has a great sense of humor in addition to her outstanding real estate knowledge and vast experience.
Karen is an awesome realtor. Not only did she listen and give excellent recommendations, but she was also extremely knowledgeable. With her experience and expertise, I got exactly the home I wanted.
I truly enjoyed working with Colleen. Not only is she enjoyable to be around, she knows her business and what to look out for. She keeps you and your family in mind all the time. She helped me identify all of our priorities for the next neighborhood we would move into. Schools, Community, Amenities, Location, Affordability. She nailed it! I couldn't be happier in my new neighborhood! I totally recommend you working with Colleen, I've already referred her to a few friends and they agree, she makes the whole process easier!
I feel so fortunate that I happened to be searching realtors online and Maya called me. Maya is far and away the best realtor I have ever dealt with. I was new to the area and did not know what I wanted or where I wanted to be. Maya was so patient. She took me anywhere I wanted to go and she listened and learned what I wanted. She was honest if she thought a house was just "not right". She was extremely knowledgeable about what needed to be done and advised me on costs of repairs. She answered my calls and texts right away. She was so helpful. If you are looking for a buyers agent in the Triangle I recommend you call Maya!!!! She found my dream home and helped me get it. I admired her work ethic and I just enjoyed her company. She's the best and I truly mean this.
Colleen knows the area and after carefully listening to our needs and wants in a house she was able to guide us the the best possibilities. So we didn't wast our very short time looking at houses that weren't what we wanted. Colleen helped us through the whole process from looking for a house to Closing explaining everything that was unfamiliar to us. Colleen is fiercely devoted to her clients, looking out for all,of their needs. She made the house buying process so much easier and less frightening. I can't recommend her enough.....if you are buying a house, you need Colleen and her team on your side!
I feel very lucky that we were able to work with Colleen to purchase a house. She really is phenomenal. We were purchasing a house from out of town, so we had limited time to look at houses. Colleen was incredibly patient with us as we came to town on short notice multiple times and looked at a lot of houses. Colleen was able to provide great information on the houses we looked at an could quickly spot issues on houses that I would never have seen. She provided her thoughts on houses and neighborhoods without trying to push her opinion on us. Colleen is very friendly, gets the job done quickly, and is an amazing negotiator. I would highly recommend her to anyone. If we ever decided to buy or sell again, I would call her immediately.
Linda and her team were great to work with. They provided a personalized service, addressed all issues and had the best interests for us. She made the process of selling our house seamless and her team was available each step of the way. As a realtor myself in the Florida market, it was a great pleasure to work with such a great professional.
She is wonderful - we immediately got along. She was very observant and quickly understood how important various things were for us. It was easy to trust her for the pieces of homebuying I'm not familiar with, everything from issues with the property value to all of the paperwork. I have several friends moving to the area and I've recommended her to all of them. She knows the area well and helped me zone in on the areas that met all our requirements - and our interests were definitely multifaceted, specific and a little bit unique. She negotiated closing costs and a pile of the seller's equipment I was interested in, and even helped sort out minor issues with the sale of my previous house. Seriously, she deserves every star in this review. I wouldn't dream of letting any friend use another agent. Thanks Maya!
Linda Trevor and her Team worked very diligently use expertise in handling every transaction successfully. I call this mission accomplished. After the day of listing, she brought five offers on the table and closing was done within 45 days. If I have any real estate business in NC or anyone need of Real Estate specialist definitely I will recommend Linda Trevor.
My experience with Colleen was fabulous! She was responsive, available, helpful, and truly made the home buying process very easy for a first time home buyer. Since closing she has checked in several times to see how things are going which I find to be so thoughtful. I would use her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home! Thank you, Colleen!
Linda and her entire staff were excellent and should be who you call if buying or selling a house in Cary. She sold our home on a fairly quick notice for higher than asking price in less than 30 days. We greatly appreciated the preparation, marketing materials and her and her team's diligence when dealing with some difficult demands from the buyers at crunch time. Would recommend and use again anytime.
Maya was a wonderful friendly realtor always available. She followed my preferences of choosing my ideal home. She is very knowledgeable about choosing the house that best fits each individual. Maya knew how to negotiate with the seller. We connected so much that we became great friends. I highly recommend her as your realtor!!!
Linda is the ultimate professional! We have been clients of Linda's for over 15 years and she recently assisted us with the sale of our home and managed the construction purchase of our new home. She is not only knowledgeable about the industry but understands the needs of her customers are of utmost importance. She listens and learns with an attention to details like no other realtor I have ever worked with. She and her team responses to requests quickly and genuinely cares about the customers, going above and beyond with a work ethic that is simply amazing. A great example of this is during our construction phase we hit a few roadblocks with our builder. Linda quickly negotiated to a win-win for both parties. We highly suggest Linda for your real estate needs and assure you, you will not be disappointed!
Karen was the perfect realtor for our first home-buying experience! She went above and beyond to help us through the home buying process. She taught us everything about buying a house, met us on short notice to see the house(s) we "definitely wanted to put an offer in on," and didn't get frustrated when we changed our minds. She helped us quickly secure our perfect house after another realtor's error caused us to miss out on it the first time around. Even after finishing her job of finding us a house, Karen continued to help us by setting up multiple contractors for renovations. I appreciate that she cares enough to ask for before & after pictures of the house and send us well wishes for our next big adventure - planning a wedding! I would recommend Karen to anyone looking for a knowledgeable & passionate realtor to buy or sell a house!
Linda pays attention to detail and is professional throughout. If you want your home sold and to feel comfortable during the process, I would recommend Linda and her team as the realtor to use!
Maya was instrumental in helping us close on our land purchase. We live in the San Francisco Bay Area in California and could not be in NC for much of the buying process. Maya was not only responsive, she took all of our feedback and made the most of our time on the east coast. She was able to execute our plan and desired in the most efficient way and we feel truly blessed to have been able to work with her. You would be lucky to work with Maya and the Linda Trevor team. They are the epitome of professionalism and knowledge and are still down to earth. We really could not be more pleased with our purchase, and we are so thankful Maya made the process so easy and seamless.
You will not go wrong choosing Maya. She is great! We bought a condo for our son to live in while in college. She is very knowledgeable, trustworthy and informative. She responds quickly to inquiries, even on vacation. She covers all the bases and makes you feel at ease.
We have had the pleasure of working with Linda Trevor on several occasions, and her expertise and professionalism have been top notch each time! She had an excellent staff as well. We highly recommend her for all real estate needs! We will certainly call her for any further real estate transactions.
Colleen was incredible to work with throughout our entire home purchase process. From the first time we met with her we could tell that Colleen had our best interest in mind as we looked through homes. Colleen walked us through our negotiating process, provided very helpful information as we went through our inspection report, and still to today checks in on us frequently to see how we are doing. I would work with Colleen again in a heartbeat, and while we gained an amazing Real Estate partner, we feel we also gained a friend.
Linda was extremely knowledgeable about the local market and her team did an outstanding job helping us prepare to list. The process was so smooth and the marketing was professional and thorough. We had multiple offers a little over two weeks after listing and were very pleased with the sale price and closing process. Linda and her team exceeded our expectations again!
Colleen was a great realtor to work with. She was very flexible with our busy schedule and helped set up a wide variety of tours in multiple areas in the Raleigh/Durham area. We saw a multitude of homes and never felt any pressure to put in an offer before we were ready. She was able to answer our questions on the spot or went out and got the answers as soon as possible. Colleen's work ethic continued through the closing process where she stayed in communication and helped work out any issues we came across. If we ever look to move from the home that we love, we will definitely keep her and her group of realtors in mind.
This is the second time we have utilized Linda Trevor and her team for our real estate needs. Every single detail was thought of and the attentiveness from Linda and all of our team members made us feel as if we were her only client. Linda was very receptive and responsive to all of our concerns, did a great job marketing and selling our home very quickly. There is no better choice than Linda Trevor. You wont be disappointed.
Do not hesitate to work with Colleen and her Re/Max Team!! You will not find a more responsive, attentive, and persistent professional to work with. My wife and I were in the market for our first home and were on a modest budget. With that being said, homes in the triangle within our budget are now selling within hours of being listed, if not faster. Colleen was always able to meet us at a prospective property when we were available, even if it was in between open houses of her own on a Saturday without cutting her other clients short. She really maximizes her time with all of her clients. This is a talent because she never came off as "too busy" for us or treated us as just another client to push into a home just to close a deal.
This was the easiest home sale transaction I have ever experienced. Linda and her team were prompt and professional in every detail of the home selling transaction....from the staging of the property, to arranging the showings, to the negotiating of the sale price, to the paperwork, and closing. During the entire process, every commitment was met - they made, what has been in the past and what could be a difficult process, a user friendly and pleasant experience....
This was our first home purchase, and Maya was wonderful. She walked us through the process, always there to assure us and allay any fears we had. She was even responsive even when she had a previously booked trip during our hunt, and her team was there to help out as well. I hope to be in this home for a long time, but when it comes time to move in the future, I will certainly be calling Maya again.
I choose Linda and her team to sell my home as she sold previous homes in my subdivision. I’m very happy with the level of service, knowledge, and attention to detail she provided. It made it an easy and painless process to sell my home. Everything was professional and detail oriented, down to the brochures created and placed in the home during the open house. Her team always kept me informed on the current status and were quick to respond to any questions I had. Thanks again for selling my home!
Maya's awesome!! I'm a first time homeowner and knew nothing at all about the process. Maya did a lot of handholding with me and was very patient with my ignorance. On more than one occasion, I'd be skeptical about what she was telling me, but every time she was proven correct. She definitely knows what she's doing and she knows the area very well (my home's in Cary). She understands the workings of this market as well as the seasonal trends which are crucial to gauging how the homes should be priced and what we should go for. Her experience also enables her to go into a house and immediately identify what would need to be changed and/or fixed as well as the more problematic aspects such as lot sloping...etc. Finally, and very importantly, she's been extremely responsive. She'd respond to every house I'd send her way and was the one to get me the house I ended up buying. There's a lot more I could say but this would make the review way too long. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to buy a home. Thanks so much Maya!!!
Use Maya because she will tell you like it is. I didn't have time for fluff or dishonesty. She knew exactly what I wanted after the first visit. She always had my best interest and it was a flawless close. Everyone she has working with her were professional and punctual. I recommend if you need someone to get it done!
We felt extremely fortunate to have Colleen help us find a home in the Raleigh area. At first we were not sure if we wanted a condo or town home, and she was very gracious to show us a bunch of both, gradually helping us to narrow the selection. She was able to answer all our questions, and if she had to do research, she came back with the answers in a very short time. When we found the right place, she carefully advised us during negotiations resulting in a quick agreement between parties. Over the years we've purchased six houses and Colleen, by a long stretch, was the best agent we ever encountered.
Linda Trevor and her team provided me with the best real estate experience I have yet to have. She checked every single box on the list of what is important to me in an agent. Professional, prompt, attentive and productive - let alone the fact that she sold my house. Most importantly though, she was very attentive to my concerns and made me feel as if I were her only client. If you need an agent in the Raleigh area there is no other choice.
We recently moved to the Raleigh area and Maya assisted us in buying our new home. She was very responsive and diligent with any issues or questions we had. She made what would have been a stressful process very smooth and efficient. Maya is excellent to work with and I would highly recommend her to others.
I would highly recommend Linda Trevor to my friends. She is always upbeat, encouraging, and maintains a sense of humor through this stressful process of home-selling. Linda is extremely responsive and possesses a strong sense of integrity and confidence in her real estate knowledge.
Colleen is the total package as a professional. She provided useful and expert counsel at each step in the home buying process. She was reassuring when she needed to be and always honest with us about what we could reasonably expect. Having her as our agent took a ton of stress out of buying. We never felt pressured or as if we were just another client she needed to move through the process. She was detail oriented, and she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure we got the best home we could. I would recommend her to anyone.
Colleen is amazing! She was very helpful and responsive. She is a very good negotiator. She was very easy to get in touch with weather it was by phone, text, or email. We have already referred her to our friends! I would recommend Colleen to everyone!
Linda and her team are a pleasure to work with. This is the second house I have sold with Linda and her team. The 2nd house was my parents home and Linda and here team were able to accommodate their needs for signing documents at their new home so it did not inconvenience them.
My fiancé and I purchased our first home together with the help of Maya and her team. We had originally had two other realtors and were displeased with both of them but once Maya took over our needs, we were floored at the quality of her work, her work ethic, time availability and commitment to our satisfaction. I have never seen a realtor take the time and effort into ensuring our happiness more than Maya. She made every step painless and especially, effortless. Maya had every resource we needed with a connection or network of the price point and quality we wanted. When we purchased our next home, there is no doubt that we will use Maya again.
It was an extreme pleasure to work with Linda Trevor and her staff. Linda absolutely blew us away at her interview with the care and attention she showed and the time she took to really get to know us. She also brought an unrivaled knowledge of the area, which was extremely helpful in finding comparables to determine a list price. Her team hit the ground running, immediately helping us prepare our house to list. With the threat of rain on Monday, the photographer came on Sunday just to take exterior photos. Linda was in constant contact every step of the way, offering knowledge and guidance in all areas, which gave us the confidence we needed throughout the entire process.
My wife and I moved down from NYC not knowing anyone and I asked for a real estate suggestion from a family member and ended up getting in touch with Colleen. By far the best referral ever! We didn't know anything about the area, she helped us narrow our search, we were indecisive about our options, she helped us talk through any issues and made sure to not rush any decision. We originally thought we would buy an already existing home but instead ended up building a home and we could not have done it without her. She met us for every appointment with the builder and our project manager giving us suggestions I would have never thought of and also negotiating when we didn't know if we should or shouldn't ask for something. To be honest I think me and my wife were really bummed when the whole process was over because we didn't think we would be seeing her anymore but she has already committed to coming over and baby sitting our new born when she arrives in a few weeks!!! buying a new home seemed like it would be a very daunting process but working with a true professional like Colleen made it very enjoyable for the two of us. If you ever have the pleasure of working with her you will NOT regret it!!!!
Linda was very easy to work with and always had my best interest at heart. Linda's team was exceptional, making sure all the t's were crossed & all the i's dotted. I would highly recommend Linda Trevor to anyone who wants to sell their house and get the best price possible!
Maya assisted us in a very difficult relocation from KY to NC. We really appreciated her keeping our interest in mind and attention to detail. She also assisted us in the multiple renovations that were needed as part of our relocation.
At the initial listing call with Linda she explained the marketing process. She and her team did an outstanding job to deliver on all aspects as promised. Photos and marketing material were very impressive. She did a great job handling multiple offers for us and the close was done on time.
Maya quickly understood our needs and wishes for a home (location, style, and value). She always responded quickly, no matter time of day. Maya is very personable and took the time needed in each home to determine if it was the "right" one for our family.
Linda and her team are amazing our house was sold and closed with 20 days after is was listed! Her team worked very very hard to help us with anything we needed
We were out-of-town buyers and I met with Colleen with only 24 hours notice. She was prepared, explained in detail what to expect from her and the agency and had properties ready for me to see. She moved quickly and was an ace when it came to negotiating the deal. I would not hesitate to recommend Colleen or the agency.
Maya helped us make a relocation from another city happen quickly and smoothly. She understood what we wanted and responded to questions and requests immediately. She helped us weigh our options and buy the home that worked best for us. She even lined up a contractor to handle some improvements before we moved in. Maya was our trusted partner in this transaction and we couldn't have made this move without her.
Working with Linda and her team was by far the best real estate experience I have ever had. I've bought and sold many homes over the years and have worked with numerous real estate agents. Nobody else touches the level of customer service - Linda's team makes everything easy. I will never willingly use another agent again! I would highly recommend Linda to anyone interested in buying or selling a home.
Colleen was the best agent I could have hoped for. I used Linda Trevor and her team to both sell and buy a home. Colleen was the glue that held together the entire operation. She really only had to assist in buying a home, but she did WAY more than that. She was always there to answer any questions, always there to help calm our nerves as we got closer to closing, always ready with the information and knowledge to help us make every decision. I would recommend Colleen to anyone trying to buy a home. You will not find someone more honest, knowledgeable, friendly, and supportive. Even after we closed, she continued to check in and make sure everything went smoothly. I initially wanted a real estate agent, I received a real estate expert and friend. Thank you Colleen for everything you have done for me and my family.
Not only did I feel comfortable through the entire process, Linda's team was always available for the best pictures, best staging, and everyday feedback. I knew when push came to shove that Linda had it covered!
Colleen is wonderful! I was a first time home buyer and Colleen helped make the process smooth and easy. She always responded promptly to all of my questions and concerns, even after the closing. Colleen is the absolute best; very attentive, professional and on top of everything throughout the entire process. You won’t find a better realtor.
Linda is very knowledgeable and helpful. Her reputation is what brought us to her hiring. Her staff, stager and communication are making the process less stressful.
Maya was great to work with and I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home. She's quick to respond and as first time home buyers, she was very helpful in explaining the process and getting us what we wanted without leaving anything on the table. I feel as if her strong relationships and knowledge within the realtor/builder community brings an advantage during negotiations. She really looks out for you as the buyer.
Linda Trevor and her team maintained a high-level customer service equally reliable, professional and courteous throughout the process of our home purchase in North Carolina. Linda quickly zeroed in on our needs, she had immediate answers to our questions at her fingertips and her knowledge of the real estate housing market gave us comfort knowing we were in good hands. Her team followed in her footsteps continuing each phase of our “home purchase” process with finesse, “red carpet” service, understanding our needs and kept us well informed. We sincerely thank you all for a pleasant and professional experience.
Colleen was amazing! She helped us buy a home long distance and made everything go smoothly and easily. She really went above and beyond... staying up late to make things happen, keeping us constantly informed, and even doing our final walk through via FaceTime so we didn't have to make an extra trip while we were finishing our packing. She was also awesome at negotiations. I would definitely recommend Colleen to anyone looking to buy a home in the area.
Could not have asked for a better agent to guide me through my first time home purchase! Maya was very knowledgable in showing me what to look for when touring a listing and was very responsive whenever I asked about online MLS post. When I decided to put down a offer, Maya worked late to put the offer in and walked me through what happens on the buyer's and seller's end. Leading up to the closing date, Maya kept in close contact and made sure everything all set for the big day. I would highly recommend Maya!
Linda is a fantastic real estate agent! We had an amazing experience working with her and the entire real estate team! We were first-time home buyers and had little knowledge about the home buying process. Linda worked diligently throughout the day and late into the evenings to ensure we got the house of our dreams. She is the epitome of a professional, knowledgeable, genuine, and caring agent. She is very trustworthy and honest person who truly values the future happiness of her clients. Even after our closing date, Linda was a tremendous help when we ran into a fencing situation with a new neighbor. She is unbelievably great at her job and her networking with local contractors and other real estate agents is invaluable. We would gladly work with her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate agent! Thank you Linda & Co!
Colleen is amazing. She found us the perfect house. Colleen is very knowledgeable in regards to locations, schools, pricing, negotiations. She always had up to date information available for us on the houses we were looking at. She was always on time, always checking in on us. Colleen is very positive and upbeat. We looked at a few different houses in our price range but we weren't sold on any of them, she kept us positive and we pushed forward and found the house we wanted. Even after we closed and moved in she has checked on us multiple times to make sure everything is going well. We would recommend Colleen to anyone looking for a new house
We never dreamed that there would be a realtor as great as Colleen! She exceeded our expectations and we would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home. Colleen's experience and enthusiasm as a realtor is reflected in everything she did to make the purchase of our new home go smoothly. She was very professional and on top of everything and knew the ins and outs of buying and building a new home and working with the builder. She was always available and very responsive to our questions and concerns. We don't know what we would have done without her.
I have worked with Linda Trevor for a few years now, and this would be our fourth deal. I was lucky enough that Linda let Colleen work with me in finding my new home, and let me tell you, this woman is a dynamo... There were times when a listing came up and I called here, and she was able to meet me in less than an hour... She had called me at times while on vacation with her family (bad girl, but THANKS!!!) and the house I wanted, we couldn't come to terms on initially, but she kept a dialogue going with the agent and ultimately with her help, we were able to come to terms and I purchased my house in Brier Creek and I could not be happier... To say she went the extra mile does not even convey what Colleen brought to the table, with her personality, drive, experience, and determination... Closing, always a challenge was (to say the least) a bit of a problem, but she stayed on top of it, and made sure everything worked out... You could not ask for more... I would recommend her to anyone and everyone... Linda has a knack for picking the best, and Colleen is truly one of them... Thank you so much for everything you did!!! Thomas
Linda is an exceptional real estate agent. We had a very pleasant and amazing time working with Linda. Our positive experience will ensure we recommend Linda to our colleagues, friends, and family!!! We were first-time home buyers and new to North Carolina when we found Linda via a search engine. We had tons of questions about the area, the home buying process, and the home builder. Linda and her team always responded to our questions in a timely manner and provided us accurate detailed responses. Linda is the consummate professional, very knowledgeable, genuine, and has a friendly personality. She provided us details about the area, the market, and the industry. We felt Linda had our best interests at heart and was extremely helpful in assisting us make the right selection in a home and the selecting upgrade options for our house. Linda made herself available to meet us and if she couldn't, she communicated to us in a timely manner and/or had an assistant available to us. Further, Linda is well connected with other professionals in the industry; she introduced us to an independent home inspector, whose services were also extraordinary. We cannot thank her enough for her excellent service and due diligence to help us find our home.
Colleen was extremely helpful in finding me the perfect home. She was very flexible in her schedule and was always there to help. Her knowledge of the home values in the Raleigh area is unmatched. Colleen will put you in the perfect home, hassle free.
My husband and I just bought a new home with the help of Colleen. We loved working with her! She was extremely responsive to all of our requests and questions, made herself available when we needed her, understand what we needed and wanted out of a house, was very knowledgeable of the various areas we explored, and understood the current market. Best of all she was very easy to work with and made the whole process fun. We experienced the typical home buying process emotional roller coaster but Colleen helped alleviate any concerns and kept us positive. We ended up with a house we love and a realtor we trust. We have already recommended Colleen to others and will definitely use her again in the future.
We are very grateful to have found Maya and her team. She is very knowledgeable, helpful, and treated us like family. I would highly recommend Maya to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home! She handled both of our transactions and I couldn't be more pleased.
Maya was an excellent agent. Very knowledgable about the area and able to provide feedback and advise when needed, yet allow us to explore homes at our pace. Extremely professional and wonderful to work with!
Just completed our 3rd transaction with Linda Trevor & Team (Sold 2 homes and bought 1) and I think a 5 star description sums up our experience with Linda: very impressive, masterful, immediate and excellent. One transaction was done during an extremely challenging time and Linda was amazing; providing excellent, timely advice, representing our interests and doing so in a manner that made the buying agent comfortable as well. Our last transaction was done with us now living across the country and was totally professional, smooth, fast and accurate. I wish we were still in the area - just to work with Linda & Team again!
May 9,2016 I bought my first house and my experience was completely amazing and stress free. I started my hunt on March 14th and put in an offer March 21. I had a really good experience and I advise everyone to do your research and read before signing anything. I am a huge fan of Dave Ramsey (books and talk radio show) and I went to his website under ELPs (Endorsed Local Providers), which is how I found Linda Trevor and Co.(Maya). They have a heart of teaching and they have participated in some of Dave Ramsey's events and read his books. My realtor Maya was amazing, if anything went wrong, I never knew about it and any clarification I needed, she found the answer. Maya was very straight forward, veeeeerrrrry knowledgable, and also has the heart of a teacher. I had a pain free amazing experience.....I just told them what I wanted and they made it happen.
We first met Linda Trevor when we purchased our house back in 2011. She was very professional and helped us all along the way to select a home and to close the deal. Over the years, we kept in touch and when it was time for us to sell we contacted Linda. Linda and her team put together a highly professional brochure and marketing strategy. When the day came to post our house we received many inquiries and sold, at full price, to the first buyers to view the property. We were able to close the deal and completed our sale in one day. Linda and her team were instrumental in bringing the property to market and quickly completing the sale.
Colleen is an very experienced and enthusiastic realtor. She was always available to us and replied to all of our email and phone inquiries immediately. She handled all aspects of the search and the subsequent transactions very professionally. We trusted her completely. Don't hesitate to choose Colleen as your realtor - she is amazing!
When I decided to sell my townhome recently I called Linda Trevor. My neighbor had worked with Linda a few years ago and she had raved about how wonderful Linda was to work with. As soon as I met Linda I was impressed with her professionalism and her friendliness. She obviously was familiar with the area I lived in and gave me good advice. I have sold many homes over the years, but I don’t ever remember having the same feeling of confidence in a realtor’s expertise as I did with Linda. I must also say how happy I was with all of Linda’s team. Everyone was always available to answer my questions and help me come to a satisfactory decision. My townhome sold in a day at a price I felt happy with. All in all it was a very successful and pleasant way to sell a house.
Working with Colleen has been an absolute joy, I don't know what we would have done with out her! She is extremely knowledgeable and always went above and beyond our expectations! She was there for us and guided us each and every step of the way from beginning and to the end! Thank you colleen for everything:)
I had a great experience selling my first home with Linda Trevor and team. From the first meeting I knew that they wanted to help me sell my home and knew how to do it, but I also felt that the were considerate of my wants and needs and respected my timeline for preparing my home for sale. I never felt pressured, or hurried by Linda's team and they were always responsive to any questions I had. The sales material that they created to sell my home (brochures, fliers) was amazing, I even kept a brochure for myself as a keepsake to remember my first home! Highly recommended!
Colleen was invaluable to us during our first home buying experience. She walked us through the process with knowledge, expertise and so much patience! She was a great advocate for us during negotiations. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Colleen, she's the best!
We contacted Maya's main office looking for our move in NC from out of state- we were directed specifically to her because of her familiarity with the Wake county school system. Our stroke of good luck - Maya has been just 100% terrific all around. She knows the market and neighborhoods very well and quickly realized what style house we were looking for. We ended up purchasing a new home construction and Maya stood by us from start to finish. She advocated for us initially with the builder when we were out of town. She stayed very closely involved during the design process of the house and kept us and the builder on task. She was by my side during home inspection and our walk throughs and once again was our advocate. She was knowledgeable and also referred us to other great professionals in the area such as an attorney and local mortgage lenders. Maya is a warm, generous and extremely dedicated professional who goes above and beyond. She is full of information and resources, and is very welcoming, especially helpful for out-of -town clients. Would recommend Maya in a heartbeat!!
Maya has been so helpful and supportive throughout the process of buying a home . From prompt emails, meetings and phone calls and occasional hugs.., she's been there....and continues to assist me with renovation ideas. Thanks so much :)
Colleen was amazing. My wife and I worked with her to purchase our first home, and she made the process painless and fun. She is very thorough and knowledgeable and never got tired of answering all of our questions. I would recommend her to anyone, and we are very thankful to have had her to help us through this process.
Maya was absolutely awesome!! As a first time home buyer she made everything super simple and answered all my questions immediately. I would recommend her to anyone!
Colleen is dedicated, knowledgeable agent, with extensive experience. She made our venture an extremely pleasant experience, I would not hesitate to recommend Colleen to anyone!
I can't say enough about Maya Galletta! We met her over a year ago in our quest for our forever home. She instantly felt like a friend. She helped us find a rental home when we first moved to the area while we searched for a permanent residence. We ended up building our forever home. Maya was with us every single step of the way! She answered every email, phone call and text with professional and honest answers. She stood up for us and got things done! Best of all, she helped our family adjust to the area. She was knowledgeable about the entire process, the schools and our town. I truly can't say enough wonderful things about Maya. I recommend her to everyone I meet whether or not they need a realtor!
This woman [Maya] has been the best realtor I have worked with. She worked for me and not for the builder. Help out with her home suggestion non stop and they were all very good recommendations. I def. advice anyone that need a a Realtor ask for Maya you will not feel disappointed. Without her I think my home would have not been the same at all. Her attention to details has been key on this process.
Linda knows the market and can give informed advice on your sale. She doesn't tell you what to do, but on the other hand she won't stand by and let you make ill-informed decisions. A perfect balance!
Working with Colleen and her team was the best real estate experience we have had. This was our third new home purchase over the last 12 years and the least stressful of all of our real estate transactions thanks to her hard work. I recommend her to anyone who mentions they are looking for a home. She has great negotiating skills and was able to get us a great purchase price on our home as well as having all necessary repairs negotiated into the deal after the home inspection was complete. She found us the perfect house for our growing family.
From the very beginning of our interactions with Linda, we were very impressed with her knowledge of our area and property values. We had just had another realtor give us "pie in the sky" property values, but she helped us understand the "realistic" value. We already had another house under contract so we wanted the right value placed on the house. Linda's team of experts provided great staging and clean up advice. Every aspect of the marketing was extremely professional. Linda is a great negotiator - always calm, cool, and collected. We made the right decision in having Linda as our real estate professional - she and her whole team were very responsive to all of our questions and concerns.
Colleen is ABSOLUTELY the BEST real estate agent you could possibly find anywhere!!! Her gentle way yet unsurpassed skill at her job is what made finding exactly what I wanted, less stressful for me. I had lived in my previous home for 40 years, so I was a little fearful of the process of trying to move and downsize. I thank my lucky stars that Linda Trevor sensed that Colleen Lawrence could put me at ease and would put in the work to find my specific needs and she did EXACTLY that! She is a wonderful person and a GREAT AGENT! She had all the bases, some that I had no idea of, covered and responded to my texts so quickly that I was sometimes shocked! You WILL NOT find a BETTER agent to use! I feel blessed she worked for ME!!
Maya was great to work with. She was knowledgeable about the area, honest with her recommendations and made us feel we were in good hands. Buying a home is an overwhelming experience but she helped ease a lot of or worries and got us into our beautiful new home!
Working with Colleen has been a wonderful experience. This was my first home purchase and it was important to me to find someone I could trust and feel comfortable with. Colleen gave me a great education on the process of homebuying itself, and helped me to feel informed and confident in my decisions along the way. She's extremely knowledgable about the area, and also about finer details such as construction materials, home repairs etc, and so I definitely felt in good hands when I had questions as my search progressed. She was remarkably speedy in communicating, and even though I knew she was busy with many clients, she made me feel like I was the only one she was working with. Colleen has a really genuine, bubbly personality that made househunting fun, and she did a great job of calming my anxieties when I was making the key decisions. My purchase went through very smoothly, thanks to the great team that I worked with, and when I come to move next time I know who to call... thanks Colleen!
Maya was great to work with, she helped me find a house during a crazy real state time, she took away the stress of buying a home, she is very knowledgeable of the real state market and will look after you and your future. Loved working with her and her team.
Linda was awesome!!! She has a great team working with her. Our house sold in less than 2 weeks. They take great pictures and stage beautifully. She helped quickly work through some kinks with the buyer to make for a quick sell.
Linda and her team have helped our family immensely by selling the home we were quickly growing out of and helping us purchase our new home. We have tried to sell the home in the past with another realtor without success after 8 months on the market. Thanks to Linda and her team we had multiple offers and were under contract within two days and into our new home in 6 weeks! Linda has decades of experience and is very professional. She also has a team of professionals at her disposal (home stager, professional photographer, closing coordinator) that made the experience seamless. The marketing materials provided were very impressive to buyers - included were two page info sheets for potential buyers with color photos and a binder in the home with details about the home and area.
This is the third instance that my wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Linda and her amazing team. Twice selling a house and once buying a house. Her professionalism is second to no one in the business! Linda and her team take the time to not only help you sell your house but to cultivate a relationship with you while you are working with her that makes you feel like you are her friend and she cares about you not only on a professional level but a personal level as well. I don't take reviews lightly and I am not one to usually post (5 stars) across the board but I in good conscience could not give her anything other than the best. We are building a house now and a little bummed that i will not need to use her again!!!
My husband and I enjoyed working with Maya. She was very responsive and throughout the entire process, we always felt like she was looking out for our best interest. The entire Linda Trevor team was very professional and prompt to give us all the necessary information. Thank you Maya and team for helping us find and purchase our first home!!
Linda is the best realtor by far!!! She was quick with responding to our inquiry into her business and showed up to our home the very next day and knocked our socks off! She had every detail on our home, we didn't have to do anything to prepare her. She was extremely knowledgable about the area we lived in and got our home sold in 9 days! Included in this short time was a 4 day snow and ice storm. Really she sold our home in 5 days!!! We were more than impressed by her ability to get the job done quick. Her office and staff were excellent as well. Every question we had was answered within minutes of us asking them. We were so pleased with their expertise and knowledge. I wish we were staying local so we could use her again in the future. I highly recommend her!!!
Maya was wonderful to work with! She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and organized! She was a determined advocate for us, and helped us overcome issues with the seller and their realtor, so we could buy the house we wanted. We were extremely happy with her and her team!!
Linda and her team are fantastic and have now sold several homes for me and my family. What sets her apart from the competition is the efficiency of her well thought out sales strategy/process, attention to detail and basically going the extra mile for her customers in every phase of the business. Her experience shows during more challenging situations and her knowledge of the market is why we were able to sell our house so quickly in a very competitive environment.
My wife and I had a great experience working with Maya to purchase our investment property. Maya is very professional, yet also brings exactly the kind of personal touch that you want when making this kind of transaction. Maya is extremely "hands-on" and worked with us every step of the way. She was available whenever we needed her and made us feel comfortable with each decision that needed to be made. Even after the closing, Maya has been checking in to ensure our on-going experience with the property is satisfactory. Maya has become our go-to person for buying and selling property and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dedicated and committed real estate agent.
In short, Maya is awesome. She looks out for you first. I was a first time home buyer and she took her time walking me through the paper work as well as any and all outcomes. Throughout the buying process I could call or text her with any questions or concerns. The responsiveness, professionalism, and patience from this woman were off the charts. Thanks to her my whole house buying process was FLAWLESS.
Colleen was so knowledgeable! I was very overwhelmed in my search for a home since we were relocating from out of state. She settled my fears with her personal knowledge of the Apex and triangle area. Colleen was extremely instrumental with providing us with her insight into all local builders and the new neighborhoods in the area. Colleen was so personal and available to me when ever I had a question. I never felt like just a "client " I felt like a part of her extended family :-)
Linda and her team were very knowledgeable and professional in handling all our needs when selling our home. Every aspect of preparing for the sale was completed in a very orderly fashion with each aspect building on the previous one. Once the listing was active, we were kept informed of each showing and any response to our property. When our home went under contract we were kept informed and updated as we progressed through due diligence to closing. We would highly recommend Linda and her team to handle the sale of your home.
We have recently bought our first home which was an overwhelming and exciting time all-in-one. Colleen has walked us through every step. We were so impressed with her attention to detail that it made buying a house seem easy. She was highly organized and knew all the proper steps that needed to be taken. I would highly recommend Colleen to anyone buying a house.
Linda and her team were fantastic. They're extremely knowledgeable and very very responsive to questions. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Give them the keys and let them do what they do best!
This was a totally unusual real estate activity entirely done from the distance (Phoenix, AZ). The agent [Maya] expertise was very important under the circumstances. In the end the process was smooth, done in time and with an happy ending.
Maya was a pleasure to work with for what's naturally both an exciting and stressful time. She has a very warm personality and is always very considerate and professional. She is someone who definitely believes in customer care both online and in person. I would highly recommend her to others.
Linda Trevor and her team are absolutely fantastic. Linda personally helped us two times within about a 1 year period. We were quickly moving to the Triangle area from Iowa and I was very pregnant. She must have taken us to 20+ houses both for sale and for rent. She was quite patient with us and very accommodating with our crazy schedules and visits. We finally found a great rental and 2 weeks after moving in, our son was born. Now that we've been here for a year, we were ready to buy. Linda and her team made the purchase of our new home completely painless. Everyone they recommended (lender, cleaning company, etc) have been amazing too. They go above and beyond to help. Thank you again for all that you do!
Karen went above and beyond! We are so grateful for all of her hard work and professionalism and will happily recommend her to anyone and everyone we know who is in the market to sell or buy! She really listened to what we were looking for and helped us find a great home. She is very knowledgeable about the area and homes in general and worked hard to help us get the home we want.
We happened upon her [Maya] by accident and she will now be our realtor whenever we need one! Knowledge, personality, honesty and a hard worker that gives excellent attention. We would recommend her to anyone needing a realtor. Everyone we met associated with her was helpful and professional as well. The best we have ever worked with.
[Colleen] She is completely professional, knowledgeable and worked with us as our needs and desires changed as we explored the area. She was patient and always available, she negotiated for everything we wanted without hesitation! She was able to recommend a great inspector as well! Her desire is to make her clients happy and she succeeds!!
Colleen was great to work with. She always returned texts/phone calls right away. She knew the areas where we were shopping for homes very well and also helped us find something that fit what we were looking for. She is also a great negotiator.
I cannot praise Linda Trevor and her team highly enough. Selling a house is full of uncertainty and stress. Very few endeavors have the impact on your fiances and life in the way that selling your primary home does. We went into the process with apprehension and anxiety...then we met Linda. Linda was impressive from the very beginning. She's highly professional and came with her research and evidence. Her guidance was knowledgeable and based upon experience with the market. She answers questions honestly, patiently, and tactfully. She and her team guided us through every step of the process, including valuable advice on how to best show (stage) our home. Our home was marketed brilliantly and beautifully. The pictures, brochures, and internet listings were top notch. She handled negotiations realistically, and always with our parameters and needs in mind. We had 3 offers in the first week and were under contract in 9 days. I couldn't be more pleased. We're always looking to spend our money wisely, and hiring Linda Trevor and her team is one of the wisest decisions we made. There's no question that we will definitely use Linda if we buy or sell property in the area again.
Colleen was very helpful on getting me my first home and I am very grateful for her being there. She dealt with the listing agent and help get me through the process. High recommend!
Maya was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process and we now consider her a close friend of our family. She was very patient which I greatly appreciated since I am usually not. She answered every question we had along the way and was extremely responsive. She remained very professional and knew how to handle the more stressful phases of the home buying process which was also VERY helpful. We could not have done it without her and we are glad she was a part of this amazing experience. THANK YOU MAYA!! l
Colleen is by far the best agent I've ever worked with. On several occasions she went beyond the call of duty to help us out during and after the buying process. I feel so lucky to have found her.
Maya helped us find our dream home! She was extremely helpful and patient with us throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend her to other people looking to purchase a home!
Colleen has spent a lot of time in the Apex market, which is evident from her relationship with the people in the business, from builders to inspectors. She was always willing to meet us to see a house, even last minute, and brought a knowledge of the area while letting us feel out the market ourselves to find our perfect home. Highly recommend!
We contacted Maya's main office looking for our move in NC from out of state- we were directed specifically to her because of her familiarity with the Wake county school system. Our stroke of good luck - Maya has been just 100% terrific all around. She knows the market and neighborhoods very well and quickly realized what style house we were looking for. She always kept our budget in mind. Maya was so helpful to us , not only in showing us multiple homes and keeping in close contact across states, but in being so welcoming. She was wonderful with our school age sons and quickly clued them in to some of the local activities to make them feel comfortable also. Maya is a warm, generous and extremely dedicated professional who goes above and beyond.
Linda and her team were terrific in helping us sell our house - very well-organized and prompt, provided great services like staging and professional photography, and always kept us informed. The sale required some complex negotiations, and Linda handled it all with great expertise and professionalism.
Linda was a pleasure to work with. She was immediately trustworthy and professional. When working with Linda, you aren't only working with her, but an entire team and well orchestrated process. This minimized work and time I had to spend selling my home. From signing to closing happened to only be about 5 or 6 weeks for our home. There are only a small details I'd change from our end to end process, but that is typical in selling a home and I was overall very pleased. I would call Linda back for future deals in a heartbeat
I am honored to write a review for this amazing team! Linda and her team helped me buy and sell properties in the past and I once again called upon her expertise to sell a high-end town home catering to a specific design style. Linda is a true master of her trade and is well known and respected. She came prepared with market analysis and suggestions and educated me on current market trends; we sat together and formulated a strategic marketing plan that resulted in a successful sale. Throughout the process Linda and her team were there every step of the way, kept me informed and responded in a timely manner to my questions and concerns. Marketing brochures were top notch, the closing Coordinator guided me through the many processes of the transaction and her assistant worked with vendors to make certain repairs were timely and thorough. I highly recommend Linda and her team as honest, caring and working with a high-level of integrity and expertise...THANKS LINDA
We called Linda's team after deciding to sell a rental unit (townhouse) in Garner. We were skeptical because this property had been damaged and was in horrible shape. Linda responded in person, walked through the townhouse with us, and agreed to help us sell it. After the contract was complete (EASY!), Linda's office listed our property. We had 6-10 showings within the first week, and had accepted a purchase offer within 8 DAYS! Linda and her team were GREAT, and the process could not have been easier. Trust us...if you're thinking about selling or buying, call Linda. You won't regret it.
Linda is an expert in all of her markets. She is well known in the industry which is priceless when presenting offers. Other agents respect her and this adds a lot of credibility during all stages of negotiation. She's got a great team and a strong referral network for related customer needs. Definitely don't miss the opportunity to be represented by Linda when buying or selling!
Linda Trevor did a great job selling our home. She and her team were very responsive and very helpful. Linda was very knowledgeable of the market, was a great negotiator, and a good listener. She listened to our perspective on the negotiations of the sale, offered her opinion, and helped us make the best decisions for us. I would highly recommend her and her team!
Linda was very knowledgeable and professional. Her staff was excellent. The photographer and staging person were absolute standouts, among the best (if not the best) in the area. There is now doubt in my mind that the photographs and staging advice contributed to a quick sale - 7 days on the market!
From the moment I met Linda she listened and understood my needs. Her honesty and authenticity drew me in and I immediately felt comfortable and trusted Linda. Linda's penchant for detail made what could have been a very stressful process a smooth transition as I navigated between 2 states. I highly recommend Linda if you are in need of a Real Estate Professional!
Maya is a phenomenal team player and invaluable asset when purchasing a home! We are new to the state and she helped us find the right neighborhoods and the right price based on what we were looking for in a home. When it came time for negotiations, she was brilliant in navigating the process and advocating for our rights as buyers at every step. Her quick responses and caring attitude were greatly appreciated while her no-nonsense attitude helped us make the right decisions and get the best house. We would highly recommend Maya without hesitation to anyone looking for a house!
We met with Linda prior to putting our house on the market and she was super helpful in advising us as to what we could do to get our house ready for sale. In fact, we were so impressed with her that we cancelled our following meetings with other realtors and decided right then to have Linda represent us. After getting the house ready for sale, Linda's team did a great job in preparing sales brochures and communicating with us as to where we were in the process. Call it super lucky but we got an offer for full asking price the first weekend the house went on the market. Thanks to both Linda and her team and we will be requesting her real estate services again in the future.
Working with Linda and her team was one of the best decisions we've made. They were highly professional, attentive, available and knew exactly how to market our home to sell. It sold fast and for asking price, which met the loft expectations we had from the referral to Linda from a friend. We would work with Linda's team again in a heartbeat.
Linda and her team are complete professionals. They assisted us in selling our home in just over one month for a fair price. They know the market well and are some of the hardest workers I've ever met in their industry. They were always very responsive and proved to be terrific negotiators. During the time our house was on the market, all our calls were returned promptly and all of our questions and concerns were addressed.
Linda is a superior real estate agent! From day one, she and her staff which includes her marketing manager (who developed a brochure and video presentation), the closing coordinator and the entire team’s necessary “hand holding throughout the process have been extremely helpful. While each member of Linda’s team has their own responsibilities, they all cover for one another when someone is areaway from the office on assignment. I recommend them to anyone looking to sell a home in Cary, NC and surrounding Raleigh areas.
Linda Trevor is AMAZING! If you are looking for a realtor that is responsive, knowledgeable, trust worthy, Linda is definitely your realtor. Over the years I have bought and sold 5 homes and I find that Linda to be honest and realistic as I have ever encountered. She told us up-front what we could expect to get when selling our property and she was right on the mark! Linda is an athlete and her competitiveness is demonstrated on the job. Qualities we most admire are her determination and how she goes the extra mile to close a deal. In the end she not only makes it happen, but does whatever it takes to make her clients happy
I would recommend Linda Trevor and her team her without hesitation.
Excellent service, I would deal with no one else! she and her team worked tirelessly to get my home sold and it took them 2 days! They all gave me very good advice. I'm very happy, Linda also sold me the home 10 years ago and I had very good interaction then also. I've recommended her many times.
Meticulous attention to detail with an extremely competent team to back her up. A real estate pro in every phase of the business who knows her market and how to get the job done. Need to buy or sell in her marketplace? - sign a contract with Linda Trevor - expect nothing less than flawless execution.
From start to finish, Linda and her team were involved in every aspect of the sale... Their presentation materials, from flyers, brochures, etc, were the best I have seen, professional and high quality. The pictures taken for the web and flyers were amazing, really showing off our house and making it as attractive as we thought it was... Her stagier gave us great suggestions on how to put "out best foot forward" and even went out and bought some items to help show things off... During the sale, her closing team as well as Linda herself was there every step of the way, getting questions answered, and helping in any way needed... We never felt at anytime we were in this alone... I have bought and sold more than a few houses in my lifetime, but this was the best experience I have ever had, I wouldn't ever hesitate to recommend Linda and her team to anyone, and should the need arise to buy or sell, I would engage them again right from the start...
Linda's experience shows through during every aspect of the home selling and home buying process. Her team is well organized and knowledgeable. Every interaction with Linda and her team was focused on how to meet our goals- both short term and long term- and making decisions based on current information. We initially talked with Linda three years ago and then worked with her again just recently. The consistency is there- we were as impressed now as we were before. We cannot thank Linda and her team enough for being our partners in this process. I can, with absolute confidence, recommend Linda Trevor and Company.
Being first time home buyers, we needed a lot of guidance and direction. Maya took her time with us and answered all of our questions(we had a lot). She was professional and lots of fun to be around. With her help, we were able to find our house within 4 days of starting our search! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a house. :)
Linda is an amazing realtor! She has helped me buy and sell 3 houses in the Raleigh/Cary area. Her knowledge of the area and ability to sell houses quickly is unmatched! She sold (and closed) my last house in record time AND got more than asking!
We utilized Linda Trevor to sell our house. We utilized her because our neighbor had just recently sold their house and it sold for more than 10k more than asking price with 3 offers on the first day to market.
We were hoping lighting would strike twice and it did. Linda told us exactly what to do to get our house ready and we did exactly as asked. As hard as you work to get your house ready she works hard to have it primed to sell quickly.
Within a months time period we did all of the needed items such as painting the house and repairs etc. and once the house was posted for sale on Friday afternoon around lunchtime we already had 2 offers on the house by Saturday afternoon (24 hours). For Full asking price! Now that is what i call results!
Pure Amazing. We have been so impressed that we are now preparing to use Linda again to list our primary house to move closer to work. We have all the confidence in the world that it will sell and will likely sell for asking price if not more again.
If you want a realtor who is straight to the point and tells you exactly what to do, what improvements to do, and what price to list at to sell immediately and turn a great profit (this is a true skill) then Linda is your expert.
Price sells and she truly knows this market and has the full team and contacts to make things happen quickly. I would never use another realtor again. Why let your house sit on the market for months and stress? I've done that in the past with other realtors and houses but never again!
Linda Trevor is the best agent i have ever met and has the track record to back up the facts. Their average full term on the market for their houses is 30 days or less. So you can pretty much figure on your house being sold within 30 days of going to market. I don't like to take risks. I like to see proven results and Linda Trevor makes things happen fast! She is also a very seasoned negotiator who will make sure you are taken care of in the process.
Linda and her team were very professional and attentive in our recent sale of our home. They marketed it very well and after 17 days and 18 showings we had a contract on the house. They made the transition very easy with no stress. We will definitely use them again in our future transactions!!!
We had a fantastic experience with Maya (Galletta)! We saw something we liked on Zillow so we emailed her and we were able to go see it with her the next day and were under contract on the second day! She was incredibly knowledgeable and made the whole process very smooth. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed working with her!
Linda is a very professional person. It was pleasure dealing with her and her staff. She knows the market well, and her suggestions are valuable. She takes her time on doing things correctly, and has a passion for what she does.
I don't think anything could have been better with Linda selling our home. Linda's team works together like a swiss watch; on time and efficiently. They were always great to work with and Linda was exceptional with her communication and advice. I highly recommend working with Linda.
We were ready to hire Linda as our real estate agent. She was the first one of the several that we interviewed who actually sat down and asked what we wanted to accomplish instead of telling us how good she was. But then we had a good friend who offered to buy our house so we really didn't need to go through the whole process of listing, showing etc. I called Linda to ask about writing a buyer/seller contract and she and her team were able to help us with that service at a reasonable fee and with great service of answering all our questions. We would recommend Linda and her team as honest, caring, offering service with great integrity and expertise. That means a lot to us.
Linda is not only a true professional in every way with in depth knowledge of the market, real estate trends and the local area, she is also a lovely person that we enjoyed spending time with throughout the process. She is very well respected by her peers and once seller's agents were told Linda was our agent we always received compliments on our choice of representative. She guided us through the process every step of the way, empowered us with the information we needed to negotiate the best deal and was our advocate when we needed help. This is the second time we have worked with Linda and she continues to impress.
I have to give this team 5 stars all around. They were wonderful!!! Linda is extremely knowledgeable and on top of all aspects of the real estate business with her ear very tuned to the market. An example of this: Just before pushing the button to make our ad live on MLS, she made some last minute inquiries. In doing so, she was able to propose a higher sale price, we agreed and the ad went live. Five days later, we received a bid on this higher price and accepted. In the end, this put more dollars in our pocket. Linda was also very helpful and responsive in the handling of all inspection list items. This was a big help as I am out of state from where my property is. The entire team is very professional and responsive. I knew right away I was in good hands. They made it a very positive experience.
Maya (Galletta) was absolutely fantastic to work with. We were from out of state and she was very knowledgeable about the area and accommodating to our schedule. With her help, we found the perfect home (at a great price) to raise our daughter in. She truly made this process a breeze and I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone.
Linda helped us sell our condo this year and she was fantastic! She and her team guided us through the entire process and we got more than our asking price! Her knowledge of the market and how to sell made us feel confident that we made the best decision using her and her team!
Linda and her team are outstanding! We will always be grateful for your (and your team's) attention to detail and eagerness to promptly assist us in anything we needed as our house was being built. Relocating from another part of the country is a monumental task, but Linda and her team eased this transition tremendously! We especially appreciate the weekly pictures/updates on the house and the personal welcoming touches. Thank you! We highly recommend Linda Trevor & Company! Thank you to everyone for a seamless closing process! Linda Trevor & Company is beyond reproach.
Linda and her team provided superior real estate service throughout the entire process of finding and buying our new home. Actually, the last 2 we bought and sold! We had offers on both houses we listed with Linda in less than one week! We had originally worked with a different broker, but felt our needs were being ignored and the broker was looking to put us in a house quickly without bothering to think about what was best for us. Once we switched to Linda, the process was completely different. She was very responsive, quick to get us showings, and very knowledgeable about the entire process. Once all the negotiating and contract was over, Linda still continued to provide excellent service, helping us to find contractors and other services we needed. Linda and her team are wonderful at what they do! I would highly recommend them, and will do so whenever the opportunity arises.
Linda was a pleasure to work with. She is very professional and knowledgeable. Another advantage is she knows her territory inside out. She helped us find our home in a highly competitive market.
I am so impressed with Linda Trevor! She was incredibly professional and immensely helpful throughout the process of buying our new home and selling our previous one. Not only was she instrumental in some of the trickier negotiations along the way, she was also very personable and thoughtful of our individual needs. Her follow up visit to our new home was especially kind and much appreciated. I would recommend Linda Trevor to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home! We will use her again without hesitation.
I highly recommend Linda and her team. I knew Linda as a friend first and was very impressed by her professionalism and work ethic. She has helped me find and purchase two homes now, and both times she and her team were very good at showing me just what I was interested in, not wasting any time. They were very responsive to any questions I had and thought of several things I would not have while negotiating with the sellers. The whole experience from start to finish was very positive.
Linda has been wonderful to work with! She was very professional throughout the process. She is detail oriented and she returned phone calls same day each time. We are so happy Linda was our realtor.
Maya was an excellent realtor to work with. She was very knowledgeable and got us into houses quickly. She spent time to get to know us and exactly what we were looking for and was able to narrow our search for us. We definitely recommend her for any realtor needs.
I was completely stressed -- I wanted to purchase quickly and really knew nothing of the area. Maya and team were very approachable -- I felt very comfortable asking the millions of questions that I had. Also, I am not familiar with real estate transactions, but I am certain that the turnaround time on my deal was record breaking!
We loved working with Maya. She listened to our thoughts and led us to the perfect house. She was patient and very helpful. We are grateful for her guidance and support during the buying process. I would highly recommend Maya.
I am a consumer who takes time to ensure that the decision-making process is thorough, especially when it comes to such a substantial purchase. I have to say that where other realtors may have tired with the extensive process that we embarked on with this purchase, Linda Trevor remained responsive, supportive and enthusiastic. We have truly appreciated the care that we were provided through the "bumps" that tend to come along with purchasing new construction and watching the process unfold from the ground up.
Maya did a great job of staying on top of the sale when we were not in the area. We did not have the luxury of being here for a grand majority of the process. Maya was extremely helpful and was able to oversee everything on our behalf. We are so grateful and thankful that someone was in the area representing us while we were making the move to the area. Thank you for all your help.
From our first meeting with Linda we knew we were in good hands. She was very attentive to our thoughts and ideas. She gave us great advice for staging our home and was in touch with what a buyer would be looking for. Linda and her team were a pleasure to partner with. They were quick to assist us with any questions we would have as well as direct us in the next step of the process. Fortunately our home sold within a couple of days and we couldn't have done it without Linda!
Maya helped us secure a home long distance. We were moving to the area and she worked tirelessly to make sure our new home suited our needs for our family. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a realtor in this area! Professional, courteous, patient and beyond helpful.
I will remember the diligence of many individuals that were part of a team. Every person, from Linda to Maya, etc. played their role perfectly. Having worked with Linda once before, we knew we could trust her and the great people that surround her. Our experience was just as good this time as it was the previous time. Everyone that's associated with Linda Trevor is someone we can trust - and there's no substitute for that when you're making the biggest purchase/investment of your life!
Linda is the real deal, she knows her business and if you listen to her she'll sell your house quickly and for the right price. Her team was very helpful and will guide you thru the process with no worries.
My experience with Maya was excellent, and I recommend her highly to anyone looking for real estate representation. I had sold my home with Linda Trevor and Company at Compass so I knew their staff was great. They set me up with Maya to represent me in buying my next home. I can't imagine being any more pleased with anyone else. Maya was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. It didn't matter when I contacted her, she always responded. She was very attentive to my needs and preferences, and we got right out there looking at houses when I was ready. It was very important to Maya that I be pleased with my home buying experience with her, her company, and the people I would eventually buy from. This shows she goes above and beyond, and you can tell she really likes what she does and isn't trying to just sell houses...she wants to sell you a home that you love, that works within your budget, and that you will want to come home to. Maya is the best. I highly recommend her to everyone.
We recommend Linda Trevor and her office staff without reservation. The whole process of the sale of our home was handled with professionalism and expertise. After spending a bit of time on prep work and staging, our home was only on the market a few days before we had multiple offers on the table. The only thing I would do differently the next time is contact Linda *before* I spent a lot of time prepping my home for sale. She knew exactly where we should spend our energy and money for the most impact in preparation for the sale.
Everyone was so kind and gracious and held my hand every step of the way. I am old and rattle on and on. BUT they never blinked an eye, just warmly and patiently tried to keep me on track! They worked so well as a team and supported each other. I feel Linda Trevor set a “perfect positive example” for them as team leader. Bless Jean for listening to my involved phone calls. Bless Crystal for her expertise in trying to make my house a marketing showplace. Blessings for handling all closing expectations and paperwork with a clear and gentle understanding about what I should expect. Such a great bunch of folks, interested in ME and trying so hard to help me!
Linda and her entire team are dedicated to customer service and sincerely enjoy helping people and it really shows. Everyone involved had separate jobs or services they were good at and I was impressed with the manner they executed it. Great Job!
I will remember the outstanding commitment and dedication of Maya to get the job done to our satisfaction. Also, everybody we dealt with at the RE/MAX office was extremely courteous and efficient. Service was excellent and Maya was exceptional.
Linda did her research on market values and our house was priced right which made a quick 3 day sale. The house was staged and the work was done very professionally. Pictures and marketing stood out on all the websites and brochures
Awesome team!!!!!!!!!!! They provide help with everything. Very professional. We've used Linda for buying and selling and now she will be working with my mother at my recommendation.
I could not imagine having to go through the process of buying a home without Linda to assist us. The level and quality of her services were outstanding. I have rarely run into such a well run organization. Linda’s insight actually prevented us from settling for another home and instead made it possible for us to buy the home of our dreams!
The Linda Trevor RE/MAX team was wonderful to work with. Such a smooth process selling and buying a house at the same time. It's not easy to do and moving is a chore, but without them, it never would have happened. We have given your name to others that are selling houses in our neighborhood. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Thank you for handling our home sale. I was VERY impressed with you and your staff during the entire transaction. This included the steady communication updates, outstanding marketing materials, valuable advice and overall professionalism. Please extend my thanks to your entire team!
Linda Trevor is very professional and has a calm that is greatly helpful in the selling process. She is also very knowledgeable and will make sure everything is handled properly. She and her team would be an asset to anyone buying or selling a home !
I am so impressed with Linda Trevor! She was incredibly professional and immensely helpful throughout the process of buying our new home and selling our previous one. Not only was she instrumental in some of the trickier negotiations along the way, she was also very personable and thoughtful of our individual needs. Her follow up visit to our new home was especially kind and much appreciated. I would recommend Linda Trevor to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home! We will use her again without hesitation.
I highly recommend Linda Trevor and the entire team to list and sell your home. The whole experince from the assessment of my home, the recommend listing price, communication and feedback from showings, final negotiations and closing all went flawless.
Linda and her team made this process so painless, and even a pleasure. I was selling my Condo. I decided to put it on the Market during the holidays, with the full expectation of waiting several months to sell it. However, the staging and photographs made an excellent presentation, and the place had several viewings during November and an offer within 2 weeks of having it for sale. Closing went off without a hitch. Home sold within the range we targeted, and I very strongly recommend having Linda and her excellent support team sell your house.
Linda and the whole Compass team were amazing to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Throughout the process of selling our home (which sold in two days) and buying another, we were extremely well taken care of down to the smallest detail.
Linda's experience shows through during every aspect of the home selling and home buying process. Her team is well organized and knowledgeable. Every interaction with Linda and her team was focused on how to meet our goals- both short term and long term- and making decisions based on current information. We initially talked with Linda three years ago and then worked with her again just recently. The consistency is there- we were as impressed now as we were before. We cannot thank Linda and her team enough for being our partners in this process. I can, with absolute confidence, recommend Linda Trevor and Company.
Linda and her team did an exceptional job as usual! Definitely recommend her team! Her marketing materials are impeccable! She went above and beyond than what most Realtors in the industry do!
Fantastic! Linda took the time to help us find exactly what we were looking for and even encouraged us to buy a house well below our budget. She was very helpful throughout the process from searching for houses to negotiating to following up on everything and even the closing process. I could not think of anything else we could have asked for in an agent!
Linda Trevor and her team are amazing. They are professional and responsive to your needs when buying and/or selling a home. They are with you every step of the way through the process as we recently experienced. We sold our house and bought a new one and we couldn't be happier with the service we received and how everything went. Linda's team is knowledgeable of both the real estate industry as well as the local market and I would highly recommend Linda for your next move, you won't be disappointed!
Maya Galletta was conscientious, engaging, reliable, personable, and experienced--all valuable assets in a realtor, particularly for buyers who are out-of-town.
Linda and Maya have been awesome! I'm really pleased and happy with the high quality and supreme level of service I've consistently received from them throughout my home buying process.
Admittedly, when my wife and I moved to Raleigh, we knew we wanted to live in a nice, safe suburban area like Cary, Morrisville, Apex or Holly Springs. And the more we attempted to research ourselves, the more we realized we were running around in circles. Well, we finally put a stop to that! I reached out to a co-worker whom I hold in very high regard, and she recommend I use Linda and Maya since they were well known and well respected in the area.
We reached out to them to begin the search for our new home and throughout the process, I found them to be very focused on the details. The listened intently, helped us to explore every option and ultimately helped us to find our dream home! We are so very thankful and appreciative to them for this.
Afterwards, we come to find out they are award-winning real estate agents and the top selling agents in Cary. Well, considering we ended up buying our house in Cary, I would say we definitely made the right choice! :)
I give them 5 Stars and to be completely honest, if I could give them more I would! :)
My experience with Linda Trevor and her team was exactly what you want when buying a home. Linda was very patient with my wife and I and she made us feel comfortable and was very knowledgeable about the market. We were looking for homes in an area where they are sold in hours, yet she was always available to answer questions and adjusted her schedule to accommodate us for showings. For one of the biggest purchases, Linda and her team took the stress out of the equation for us and we knew we were in good hands at all times. The communication was concise and timely and helped make sure the whole process went smoothly. We love our new home!!! Linda came highly recommended and I will definitely refer Linda and Janette and the rest of the team to friends.
Linda and I first met in 2007 when my family moved to Cary. Without knowing much about our new surroundings, we put our trust in Linda to advise us on the right place to be. At the time, there wasn't much inventory in Cary, but Linda managed to get us into a house that had everything we wanted. Seven years later, we called on Linda (and her new team) when our family grew and we needed a bigger house. In less than 3 months, Linda had our old house sold. Her team helped us with our new purchase. We've been in our new house for close to a year and we couldn't be happier. Linda and her team handled every step of the process with expertise and ease. I would recommend Linda and her team to anyone new to the area or moving within The Triangle. Moving can be difficult. But they make the entire process so easy from start to finish.
Linda was fabulous to work with as we were considering selling our house and building a new home. She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, professional and pleasant to work with. Linda has developed an excellent business model with her team and the work that they do to sell a house. She prepares you well to put the house on the market to enable the best price. Linda did an excellent job negotiating with the home builder as we went into contract to build a new home. She was instrumental in the ongoing discussions & negotiations with the builder as we did run into some issues. Linda knows what she is doing - without a doubt. I would not hesitate to recommend Linda and will only use her going forward for my home purchase or selling needs in the Triangle.
Linda was great to work with she was always there, very helpful did a great job with our home & all of her associates were very helpful & diligent and we were very pleased with the excellent service we received. We definitely would recommend her team!
That was pleasure working with Linda and her team. I highly recommend her! Many thanks! All questions were answered in timely manner, clear communication through all the process. Honest and realistic approach.
Linda Trevor has been my realtor since 2005. She found me a townhome, and then sold it several years later in a relatively short period of time for a nice profit. However, more than that is her easy going personality, and strong work ethic. My last real estate condo purchase and recent sale were no exception, and my condo sold in 20 days! She and her team provide outstanding service and every attention to detail. All of Linda's team reflect her high values of respect and courtesy. I would highly recommend Linda in a heartbeat!
Linda and her team are wonderful to work with every step of the way. Linda has excellent knowledge of the area, neighborhoods and the trends within them. Buying or selling a home Linda helps you feel like you have all the information possible and her team walks you through each step of the process making it seamless. Her skills in getting eyes on a home are top-notch as our home sold in less than a week! And when searching for that next home Linda and her team really get an understanding of exactly what you are looking for.
Linda is a true professional dedicated to getting the most for your home and making the sales process very low stress. Linda spent many hours with us getting all of our concerns addressed and getting our home shown and sold quickly.
Linda Trevor and her team are great, they made the process of buying our house smooth and relaxing. Linda and her team were very detailed in every aspect of the process and communicated every detail so that we were happy and satisfied through the entire process. There is no one I would trust more than Linda and her team. Thank you Linda:)
We have had two great experiences working with Linda and her team. The team approach ensures that there is always someone ready to step in if Linda isn't available. Linda gave us great advice on getting our home ready to sell, and we had a contract within a couple of weeks. She did great negotiations all through due diligence and made sure that we got top dollar. Thanks Linda and team!!
Linda is awesome. She sold our house in under two weeks and the marketing was top notch. Her team is great, responsive, and helpful. I would recommend her to anyone buying or selling a house!
