Made My First Home Buying Experience a Breeze
I originally got in contact with Jim and Crystal Halley the day after a condo I was interested in went on the market. They were able to quickly organize a showing and help me put in an offer on the very same day. They were always quick to respond, easy to get a hold of, and kept everything moving along smoothly. When the condo ended up in a bidding war, they helped me navigate it and gave me great advice throughout the process. I had a lot of stress as a first time home-buyer, but they diffused all of it. I would highly recommend them.

All around awesome realtor! You can not do better than John Scarpa when dealing with real estate
John is extremely intelligent when it comes to real estate. In tune to the market like no other. He priced our home even more than I thought we could get for it, and it sold full price!!! He communicates very well and explains the procedures down to the smallest details. He answers questions promptly and in a clear and understanding manner. He is truly someone who looks out for your best interests and will work with you to give you the best possible outcome. John Scarpa is the best!

Look no further because Kate Dombrowski is the absolute best
I met Kate about six years ago when I had a rundown money pit of a house in Canton this place was the absolute worst not only did Kate Sell it for exactly what I wanted but she was able to walk me through every obstacle that was thrown in our path She was so good that when I bought a new house it was through her and then I sold that house through her. My son and his wife also used Kate to find their wonderful home. Not only is she knowledgeable in her field, but the personal touch love and attention that she gives every client is so hard to find these days.

Natalie Goodwin-Van Oyen got to know us, used with her vast real estate knowledge, & created a seamless experience.
Natalie took time to get to know us, our short term and long term goals. She then provided facts and research which allowed us to agree on a realistic listing price. She provide advice on ways we could get the highest possible sale price for our home including timing of listing and removing items from our home ahead of the listing to make it even more attractive for buyers. This was the first time we sold a home and had ample time to move into our new home thanks to her negotiating skills. Her advice allowed us to be much more relaxed and enjoy the journey.

Seamless process - Beginning to End
Like my two brothers, I was very impressed with Kate Dombrowski's professionalism, hard work and dedication to bringing about the best outcome when it came time to sell our childhood home. From the first meeting through closing, Kate walked us through all of the different aspects of selling a home, and selling it well. We couldn't have been more pleased! She was also exceptionally helpful when we began navigating through the different offers. (Something I didn't experience with my realtor 26 years ago when I sold my last home). Honest, hard working, motivated and assessible! Team Kate is definitely the very best!!

Great listener and knowledgeable advocate who worked hard to find us the right home
Working with Jenny Egan was great! The whole home buying process can be a bit daunting, but she walked us through every step and provided great knowledge, experience, and expertise. She took the time to hear what we wanted in a house and to understand our vision for our family while also offering thoughtful suggestions and insights that we had not yet considered. She was so helpful and responsive with our questions and worked hard to identify homes that would be good for us. Overall, Jenny's professionalism, genuine care, and knowledge made the process smooth. I would highly recommend her to others!

Helpful beyond just the buying process.
Always available and willing to do extra to make the experience easier on you. Explaining everything you need to know while also offer things your house might need where to get them or who to talk to. Isn't just going in trying to sell you whatever she will tell you whether or not the house is something worth getting or not. As a first time buyer I value that a lot it makes you feel comfortable about the process and what you are getting yourself into. I'd recommend any first time buyers anyone feeling insecure or people moving to the state Jennifer Egan is who I'd pick.

Lysa Kowalik is awesome, and fantastic at explaining and executing all stages of the sale.
Lysa is an excellent communicator. She gets your story, understands your concerns, and no question goes unanswered. The best way to reach her is by text messaging. She will respond to acknowledge receipt of your text, answer your question, or designate a time when she can get back to you. Very professional! Shares her knowledge by making sure you understand the forms and steps of the process for the sale. Very helpful! Enthusiastic! Encouraging, no matter how undaunting the situation may be perceived by you. Thank you, Lysa for what you do to make a sale happen.

Treated me like family
This review is for Paul, Murk and Amber Wagner I started working with Paul in 2022 looking for my first home unsure he never pressured me to buy something. I wasn’t confident in Paul always made sure I was looking for a home that I could settle in, but also make it a good investment for the future. Paul always answered my phone calls. Got me a showing the same day if needed has a lot of connections and got answers quickly. We were on and off for about four years looking for homes and I never felt like I had to buy something from Paul. He truly just wants to help people accomplish life goal of theirs which is buying their first home in 2026. He asked for Amber‘s assistance and helping me find a home. I only worked with Amber for a short time, but in that short time, she found me my dream home for first time homebuyer stayed within my price was very communicative and very kind through the entire process. They both have very good people skills and know how to make you feel like a family member through the process I highly highly recommend Paul Mark’s team to help you find your first home or if you’re looking to sell and move onto your next home they really did everything they could to make the process easy and painless as possible. I definitely had some uncertainty about buying my first home at such a young age, but they both reassured me. I was making the right decision and I do not regret it. I’m very happy in my first home and still surreal that I own property I rented for almost 9 years before I was able to buy something so it’s quite the process but I’m glad we reached the finish line together as a team. Thank you again Amber and Paul.

Absolutely Outstanding Extremely Competent And Responsive Agent
We selected Kate Dombrowski as the agent to help us sell our dear parents' house, which has been in our family for almost 59 years. Kate is truly outstanding. She is extremely knowledgeable, competent, and professional. Her work ethic and communication skills are absolutely stellar. Kate treated us like family, walked me and my siblings through the entire selling process, kept us informed throughout the showings and negotiations, and patiently helped me understand and complete all required paperwork. Our dear parents worked very hard all their lives to make our house a home, and through all her efforts, Kate showed us that she understood and respected what the house meant to me and my siblings. Mom and Dad would have been proud that Kate took such good care of their home, and my siblings and I will always be deeply grateful to Kate for her excellent work on our behalf.

Unrelenting Advocate, Exceptional Experience!
No: They are NOT all the same. We phone-screened six agents referred to us by people who had bought or sold homes within the past few months or years. Three were invited to the house for an interview. They were real good people! Kate Dombrowski made a compelling case to be our listing agent. We trusted Kate with her strategy that would (and did) generate interest, traffic, and a solid sale. In our case in this seller's market, multiple offers after three days of showings came in. And that's when Kate *REALLY* went to work (after all she'd already done, no less). Understanding our priorities and goals in selling the house, Kate worked with the counterpart agents to understand all the details of their offers: How solid was the financing? How committed are the buyers should the appraisal fall short? (It didn't, btw.) How flexible can the buyers be with our time frame? Kate ensured the closing process would be a success and delivered! Not only did she excel in the marketing of our home, the scheduling of dozens of showings, and the logistics of closing, but far exceeded my personal expectations in solidifying the deal. We signed with Kate having high expectations. She exceeded them. Having bought and sold more than a few personal homes over the years, Kate was exceptional in her ethics, integrity, professionalism, and her respect for our home and our family. Absolutely incredible! Are you really a hostage to the idea that you owe someone you know the right to list your home? Think about the kind of person you want advocating for your needs, goals and future. Start with Kate Dombrowski and you’ll finish strong.

Kate Dombrowski helped us sell 2 houses and buy one all at the same time. She did an amazing job!
Kate helped us sell 2 houses and purchase one all at the same time. it wasn't easy but she sold them at the price we wanted and got us into our dream home. We struggled with buyers and with our own finances but she stuck through it and pulled it all off. We didn't have the credit approval we wanted for a mortgage but we had cash, she guided us through a land contract and with her knowledge of the market was able to pull it all off. She communicated regularly, many many times a day at some points to help us. She also helped us with issues at the new house to get things figured out. I would highly recommend her! Thanks for everything Kate!
