About Katy Anderson

As first-time home buyers in the wild Bay Area market, we so appreciated having the Katy Team on our side. We primarily worked with Katie but found both to be knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and honest. My expectations as someone new to this process were that a realtor® would alert us to homes on the market that matched our budget and needs, arm us with knowledge of market trends and comps to be able to make competitive bids, and be our advocate during a negotiation. They met these expectations. What we didn't realize we would appreciate so much were Katie's thorough assessments of every inspection report we pulled, the incredible connections an...

Cannot say enough good things about Katy, Katie, and Laura! These Realtors® are in the know! I have worked with other Realtors®, and the difference is clear. This team helped me sell my condo and find a single-family home in the Bay Area no small feat in this market! I know they are busy (they are at the top of their game and I believe in the top 1% of Realtors®), but I always felt like they had time for me. They were incredibly on top of it, going beyond just showing comps and breaking down what neighborhoods were likely for us and helping redirect us when we got off track. I also appreciated their willingness to give clear advice and to express op...

I was in a difficult situation when I inherited a house that needed a lot of work before selling. I also lived far away and wasn't going to be able to handle many things myself. Laura and the Katies helped me through this process every step of the way. They were very sensitive about my situation and never imposed any pressure on how much improvements I should do, nor about the selling price. Being remote, I needed to give them as much of the reigns as I could in order to make my life easy. And this paid off. They gave me regular updates and took care of things behind the scenes so I didn't have to worry about them. They were always available to prov...

Katie and Katy helped me sell my condo in West Oakland, during a very challenging time in my life and during the pandemic. From the start, Katie and her team were very organized, checked in, shared clear information and research, and were amazing project managers. I relied on them to help make decisions about all the vendors and the selling processes. Katie was also very flexible when I wanted to push back the sell date because I wasn't ready to sell just yet! She was understanding and worked out a plan. The pricing strategy, advice, neighborhood knowledge, and escrow process were top-notch and went smoothly! I couldn't have made this huge move with...

I was very fortunate to be introduced to this team by a friend. From the initial call, they started exceeding my expectations. My schedule leaves very little free time to see properties and I often asked to see something with very little notice. They always found a way to make it work out. From start to finish they were top notch and I never felt they didn't have my best interest in mind. In a difficult time (Covid) in a very competitive housing market, it was critical to have a team available and ready to make it happen. That is exactly what they did. I am grateful that they were able to help me achieve this goal.

We were referred to the Katie team by our close friends. In summary, they were fantastic! Exceeded our expectations! We specifically liked their "real talk," pragmatism, and ability to listen and understand our wants, and needs, and read our minds a little bit. We would recommend them to anyone seeking a new home in Oakland and Berkeley. We truly appreciated their efficiency, communication, and efforts and we are confident the home we purchased would not have been within reach without their clever approach and strategy!
