Katrina Smith, of Pinpoint properties, did an outstanding job for us in the sale of our home and the purchase of a new home in all aspects of a sell or a purchase. Four years ago, she took over the sale of our previous home; after having been on the market for over a year with another realtor, she sold this house in less than 2 months for more money than it was previously listed. Late last year, Katrina took on the sale of our current home, and the purchase of a new one. During the next 2 months, she sold our house for more than comp value before it was ever put on the market, and the new house was purchased for a bargain. Both house were put in escrow and closed during this time. Katrina’s leadership style was exemplary in accomplishing the work, everyone was satisfied and we are currently enjoying our new home.
Katrina and her team were awesome to work with. Her expertise in market analysis and marketing strategy was a huge help in selling my home in a softer sales market. She also has strong communication skills and timely responsiveness which was really helpful when navigating through the negotiation and closing process. I would highly recommend her for your buying or selling real estate needs!
We used this realtor at the advice of a friend and were SO glad we did! Her knowledge of the local market truly surpassed other realtors we interviewed, and she is obviously at the top of her game, exceptionally poised and just a real pleasure to do business with. Her negotiation skills were top notch, and she realllllly went the distance for us. We appreciated her guidance and expertise in what could have been a complicated transaction, and she never ceased to go above and beyond our very high expectations. We have since used her for two other real estate deals and she makes the process seamless!
Katrina is not only the best realtor I have worked with, but she has also surrounded herself with a great team that will not let you down. Each house sale is unique and has their complications. Katrina and her team made it happen with my house and navigated us through the various negotiations that had to go down. I trusted her guidance and relied upon her team for their sharp communication and punctual work ethic.
I hired Katrina because I had heard great things about her on several occasions. My experience turned out to be excellent and she helped coordinate so many aspects of my sale and closing. I’m glad I chose her because her marketing was top-notch…I know that is a big part of what ultimately brought in the results. Appreciated the follow up too. She kept everything on schedule and didn't let anything slip through the cracks. A+ job
My experience with Katrina was short. See sold the home in two days. Never even made it to Broker's Preview or a chance for Zillow and/or MLS to take effect. On top of that, she got me more than my asking price; the home sold for 4.3 million. The previous broker had it for one year with no results.
Katrina was absolutely fantastic to work with and I couldn’t recommend her more highly for anyone looking to purchase a home in Corona del Mar and coastal OC. She spent countless hours patiently driving us around properties over several months during our search process and never once put pressure on us to pursue any particular one. She shared her deep knowledge of the areas we were looking (mostly Corona Del Mar) and was always extremely responsive to our many questions and requests, no matter what the time of day and even when she was travelling interstate. Once we found our dream property she guided us through the purchase process which was by no means smooth given multiple issues and delays with our bank and was absolutely fantastic in dealing with the seller and their agent in helping the deal cross the line. I also referred Katrina to an overseas friend who was looking for an investment in Irvine and he had a similarly faultless experience with Katrina.
Our Realtor, Katrina Smith made the entire process of listing, showing and selling our home painless! We were so impressed with her professionalism and knowledge of the business. Katrina has a lot of integrity and is a real professional in dealing with her clients, as well as other realtors and potential buyers. From photography to the design of our advertising materials, print and electronic, Katrina nailed it. Absolutely beautiful photography and the layout gave a clear and honest representation of our home. We believe this was key in getting the right clients interested and ultimately touring our home. This is our second real estate transaction in which Katrina has been our realtor. I would not even consider another realtor and I go out of my way to recommend Katrina and Pinpoint Properties to all of my co-workers and friends. Selling or purchasing a home can be a stressful experience and Katrina made the recent sale of our home an extremely positive experience. We will definitely call upon her when we are in the market to purchase our new home.
Katrina was referred to us by close family members and we couldn't have been happier with the results! My fiancé and I changed our desired location about 5 times and without hesitation, Katrina happily adjusted our preferences and came up with new properties for us to view.
The aspect we loved most about Katrina as our realtor was that she truly valued our opinion despite our lack of experience in the home buying/selling realm. Her 10+ years of industry experience coupled with her ability to earn the trust of her clients really made our relationship a match made in real estate heaven!
Katrina is an amazing realtor. After having my home on and off the market for over a year, I decided to re-list my home with Katrina. She quickly bought me a buyer and my house was sold in a couple of months. She made the home-selling process very easy for me and was always available if I had any questions along the way, I will absolutely recommend Katrina and her team to all my friends and family.
Katrina is a total professional. We had many people interested in this property. She helped me field all of the offers with her knowledge and expertise. I would refer her to anyone who needs a realtor. She is easy to deal with and very responsive. I had no problem getting a hold of her. She answered all of my questions promptly. The paperwork was promptly received. GREAT REALTOR!
Katrina sold a one of a kind house and property in Laguna Beach, negotiated for a long time and never gave up. Final settlement was accepted and the house was sold. Thank you very much for all the help and patience.
We Enjoyed working with Katrina and her team, they were both knowledgeable and professional, during our home search and escrow. We would work with the again.
Katrina recently represented us selling a property in Corona Del Mar. We can't say enough nice things about her. She was extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and definitely had a pulse on the market. She was very professional and just a delight to work with. We would highly recommend Katrina.
Katrina is awesome to work with. She is extremely responsive and knowledgeable. She helped me in finding the perfect opportunity. She really knows her areas she services well. Plus having great relationships with other brokers in the area was also key in me getting the house I wanted. I will definitely use her again.
Katrina helped us in several real estate transactions on both sides of selling and buying. Very knowledgeable concerning high end marketing, negotiations and the many details that go into the process. I have already recommended her to colleagues.
I would not consider having anyone but Katrina handle real estate on my behalf. She is exceptionally knowledgeable and you will have the utmost confidence that your transaction is being done with absolute professionalism. Katrina came highly recommended to me by someone who has been buying and selling real estate for over 25 years and I’m grateful for the recommendation.
I have had the pleasure of purchasing and selling with Katrina and she has always been amazing. She communicates well, is quick to respond and makes time for you and your needs. She was especially great walking me thru the process to ensure I knew what steps needed to happen and when, so there were never any surprises. She is my first call for anything real estate.
Katrina is very professional and helped our sale run smoothly. She was very knowledgeable and helped show our house in its best light. She chose the staging designer and the photographer, whose photos were gorgeous. She also brought in the buyer and due to her efforts our house sold in one day on the market.
Raquel did an outstanding job assisting us with the purchase of this home! She is very knowledgeable with the area and the value of the homes in the area and guided us though the entire process. Her response was always quick and made the process much easier
