"
We want to thank you for all the hard work and expertise that went into helping us find and buy our condo. It had been a long time since we bought our last house, and we were new to California. You helped us get oriented and gave us the patience and support we needed. You helped us define what we were looking for and identified potential properties that met our criteria.
You were generous with your time and accompanied us as we visited properties we were interested in, and your insights into the condition of those properties were very useful. You gave us good suggestions on the offers we would make. You gave us the encouragement we needed when we needed it. You kept in close touch by phone and texts. It was always easy for us to reach you. You were always honest with us.
And you have continued to help us by suggesting skilled tradesmen who can make needed repairs and improvements. We’re very glad you were our agent.

I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Catherine Gellert as a realtor.
We had a rental house in the Larchmont area and we decided to sell in November of 2021. Catherine came highly recommended and we are so glad that we hired her to be our agent. She has extensive knowledge of the market, especially in the Larchmont area, and since we live on the other side of the town, Catherine took care of everything. She dealt with our tenants and got the house ready for a showing in no time. She held several open houses and followed up with potential buyers to solicit feedback. She communicated her actions along the way and we knew that she was on top of everything. She is an excellent communicator and negotiator. The transaction went as smoothly as one can hope.
Catherine is an excellent realtor and she gets the job done well. I would certainly use her again if I need her service and I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone.
