"Five stars for Kate Blalack, no question! Kate was my Realtor for both sale and purchase. Both deals were tricky for different reasons. She's an incredible combination of heart, intellect, and grit. She's very honest and real and not "real estate agent-y". She's soft and kind and then an awesome negotiator when that's what's needed. I really don't think we could have pulled this off without her. Immensely grateful that she is in this profession, and was our guide throughout these last couple of months."
"Worked with Kate on my first rental property. She was amazingly helpful at every step of the way, from locating properties to managing inspections to docs, closing and beyond. She a pleasure to work with, being patient with my side and persistent with theirs. Got it done in record time, to boot. Would highly recommend her and look forward to our next deal!"
"It goes without saying that selling a house can be a stressful process. We initially attempted to sell our house on our own, and when our efforts failed, we enlisted Kate’s help. Already weary of showings, Kate gently cheered us on through each open house and numerous showings with a steady and quiet confidence. She calmly assured and reassured us that we would be successful in meeting our goal and kept us abreast of important communications with buyers’ agents. She was readily accessible whenever we had a question, and her follow-through was excellent. Kate strategically negotiated the final sale with skill and finesse. She is an excellent realtor, and I recommend her services without reservation."
"Kate Blalack is the best realtor anyone can have. She is completely knowledgable about all the details and legalities associated with buying and selling real estate in the Boulder area. But she goes way beyond that in being both thorough and creative in the way she handles these transactions. She has good contact with the other agencies that are necessary in dealing with property transfers. She is also the kindest and most patient person I've ever had the pleasure of working with."
Now, many years (and homes!) later, she deeply understands not only the ins and outs of the dynamic local market, but that buying or selling real estate often represents a significant life transition. Whether working with multimillion dollar listings, first time home buyers or investment properties, her clients appreciate her responsiveness, patience and attention to detail.
Kate holds a B.A. from Brown University and an M.S. from Southwest Acupuncture College. Before settling in Boulder in 2000, she worked as a wilderness EMT and Himalayan trekking and cultural guide. She loves the health-conscious and family-friendly community, as well as the amazing outdoor opportunities that Colorado offers. Fun facts: Kate is also a nationally certified and licensed practitioner of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, and a 2021 Colorado Trail thru-hike Completer. She is committed to giving back to her community by donating a portion of each sale to organizations that facilitate equitable access to food, housing, education and health care.
Whether working with buyers or sellers, Kate loves the value that Compass technology brings to her clients. She is a certified Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE), an Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR), and has attained the prestigious GRI (Graduate, Realtor Institute) designation. Kate values long-term relationships and has a great appreciation for her network of past clients, as well as related professionals including other agents, lenders, contractors, stagers, architects and more.
