I bought my house from Pat over
eight years ago, but the service never stops! I've
called upon her many times for advice on repairs and
remodeling, and for contractors she knows. She's a
great local resource.

We were apprehensive about
selling our little house after Pat found us a larger
home in the neighborhood, but she helped us with
ideas to make our old house more appealing, and took
responsibility in ways that made the whole process
less worrisome. We knew she really cared about how
the sale went for us, and by the end it all seemed
fairly easy. Even the closing was fun!

When we needed a larger house but wanted to stay in the area, we
naturally thought of Pat. She helped us organize our ideas into a
plan of action, from preparing our old house for sale to lining up
financing for our new house. She's a relaxed professional who let
us feel we could call whenever we had questions, and she's stayed
available in the years since we moved.

We bought our first house
from Pat at a time when, as graduate students, we
didn’t even think we could afford one! She helped
to demystify the process for us by walking us
through every step, from finding an affordable
inspector to obtaining a mortgage to filing for
homestead taxes. So we knew just who to call when
it was time to move to a larger house: Pat and
Susan made the process of selling our house easy and
stress-free, giving us advice on the things we
needed to do to make our house more marketable. Dan
even helped with repairs! Then, in a tight housing
market, Pat and Susan managed to find us an
affordable house with all the size and charm we
wanted. Since the move, we’ve called on them many
times for do-it-yourself tips and names of quality
craftspeople. Needless to say, we’ve recommended
River Realty to all our friends who are looking for
houses in the area.

When you talk to Pat, she really
listens! We found that out the easy way a few years
ago, when she found just the right house for us.
She took care of the details with professional
skill, keeping us informed and always looking out
for our interests in the transaction. We know we
couldn’t have made a better choice for a Realtor.
We have recommended her to many of our friends!

We
asked Pat to find us a rare property, and she did
it! She really knows the area, and the people around
here know she's honest and professional. That opens
a lot of doors for her clients, and it gave us a
chance to get the house we wanted.

| After my mother
died I asked Pat to help me sell the house I had
grown up in. I could see that she thought of me as a
person, not just some customer. She made sure that
the timing was right for me, and she took lots of
time to explain exactly what was going to happen
next. She even helped me move. You need to have an
agent like Pat, who you can trust.

As first-time buyers entering
this intense seller's market, we were concerned
about the daunting process. We were very fortunate
that we called River Realty. Pat provided us with
pervasive knowledge of neighborhood and house alike.
She balanced her considerable experience with a
casual, comfortable style and an amicable attitude.
Her rapport with the sellers and her reputation with
our lender all made the process surprisingly smooth.
As life-long Minneapolis residents, we had hoped to
someday reside in Seward. Pat and River Realty made
our hopes a reality.

We
couldn't have done it without Susan and Pat! Susan identified our
house-to-be the first day it went on the market - it would have
come and gone under our noses without her on the task. In a
fast-paced bidding process on an under-priced house, we came in
with the lowest of three bids... yet we got the house. Susan
deserves all the credit: her unconventional ideas (have the house
inspected before making an offer; include a letter of interest
"from the heart" along with our bid) worked wonders, and the
seller gave us the chance to match the highest bid.
When it came time to sell our
house, Pat helped us identify what was keeping buyers at bay. Pat
knew when to take the house off the market, how to get the repairs
done over a holiday weekend (thanks, Dan!), and how to get it back
on the market prepped to sell in a day. We were all-around amazed
at their real estate smarts and professional service that took the
edge off this potentially stressful time. Thanks to their
teamwork, we're living in the house that's right for us!
