"Cathy helped my wife and I sell a large unit in LBS. She was the consummate professional and made the process very easy for us. She connected us with appraisers, closing attorneys and guided us through several challenges. Since then, we have gotten to know her very well, and have learned that she is one of the most respected brokers in the area, We offer our highest recommendation for her service. ~ Randy and Tina"

"I would absolutely recommend Cathy Schmidt to assist you in finding the perfect home for you! I have been lucky enough to work with Cathy twice, once to purchase a new home and then to sell it 3 years later. In each case, Cathy went above and beyond to provide the personal service you want in your realtor. ~Melissa"

" Sale of your home and purchase of a new home can be a challenging and stressful activity. Especially in today’s real estate market, having someone with market knowledge, insight into listing and offer strategies and most importantly great communication skills is essential in achieving your goals and dreams. We recently used Schmidt/Aprati & Co. to list our home after they were successful in finding a new home for us. They spent the time to get to know us, identify the key aspects of what we wanted and then, with a keen knowledge of the market, identified a home that fit the bill. However, that was only the beginning! They facilitated the offer process, supported the legal and inspection process and we closed in record time. Simultaneously, they worked with us to identify a listing price and a marketing strategy that was very attractive for the sale of our existing home. Within a week, we had an identified buyer and again, with their help, we negotiated a contract for sale. Using their contacts, we were able to close both transactions on back to back days saving us significant relocation costs. The sale price of our home and the purchase price of our new home were right on target. Throughout both transactions we felt we had a knowledgeable professional on our team. Their communication was fantastic which helped minimize surprises and quickly remedy any issues that arose! We would highly recommend them! ~Dan and Val Bischof"

"“Cathy and Jackie were recommended to us by a close friend, and we are so grateful we chose to work with them when it came time to sell our first home and find our forever home. After I first got in touch with them, they went right to work searching for homes for us to visit. They were patient and understanding through it all and always offered the best insight. We are so happy with the outcome of working with these ladies and highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell and/or buy.” ~Jenna & Trent | Sellers and Buyers"

And if there was something they didn't know they made it their mission to find out right away. It was a multiple offer situation and their knowledge and experience helped us beat out the competition. Anyone looking to buy or sell will have a friendly, helpful and professional team looking out them. Would 100% use them again."
