Kimberly Crabtree was the perfect buyer's agent. She was a fierce advocate for our interests, communicated thoroughly every step of the process, and helped us feel extremely confident, even as first-time buyers. We will only every use Kim in future real estate transactions.
Seller Rating:
We had such a wonderful and smooth selling experience, and we owe a lot of that to Kim Crabtree!! From the moment we starting thinking about selling, to our after selling party, Kim was with us and supporting us EVERY step of the way! She explained what we could expect, was realistic and upfront with us, and help calm all of my nerves through the process. She was professional and personal, exactly what we needed to get through the selling process. Whether you are a new or experienced buyer/seller, Kim is a wonderful fit!
Seller Rating:
Kim is professional, helpful, responsive, reliable and goes above and beyond
Will definitely use Kim as our realtor again
Buyer Rating:
Kim Crabtree is professional, knowledgeable, thorough, creative (yes, this is important for realtors!), and caring. We first met over coffee at the beginning of my homebuying process to talk about what is important for me in a home (in my case, location) as well as how much I might be interested putting in as a down payment. After getting pre-approved for a mortgage, we had a follow up conversation to talk about realistic concessions I might be willing to make in order to still make my home-buying goals a reality. Kim continued to work with me, attending open houses with me and ultimately helping me buy my first home in Montclair, NJ! I felt very comfortable working with Kim throughout the process and it's evident that she really cares about her clients' well-being and satisfaction with their home purchase! In short, Kim is wonderful, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in Northern NJ!
Buyer Rating:
Kim is the best, she was very patient and took the time to explain how things worked. If we had a question she would find an answer if she didn't already know it. Great customer service, professional and polite the whole way through!
Buyer Rating:
I would recommend Kim to anyone in search of an excellent, hard working realtor. No need to search any further!
Buyer Rating:
Kim was amazing to work with. We discussed what I was looking for and she identified the house I ended up purchasing with 3 days working together.
Kim is extremely knowledgeable and knows how to explain this in a very easy to understand way.
I have told friends and family that if they ever need to find a broker that Century 21 and Kim is the way to go.
Seller Rating:
Met Kim at a random open house and we felt she was absolutely incredible in the way she handles herself. Once we met her we knew she would be the right broker for us. She understands what's necessary to sell and buy a home. Would put her at the top of the list in any category1
Buyer Rating:
Kim is without a doubt, the most professional and personal realtor I know. We first met Kim at an open house she was having. As soon as we met, spoke a bit and looked around, my husband and I knew we wanted her to be our realtor moving forward. We are not sorry at all. She had our backs through the whole process. I would highly recommend Kim to someone needing a excellent realtor. She's not only our realtor, she's become our friend.
Seller Rating:
From the onset, Kim demonstrated knowledge, compassion, and understanding. She came extremely well-prepared to our initial meeting, having already done extensive research in the area of comparable homes on the market.
Kim was exceptional, as a realtor and a helping hand, throughout the entire experience of selling our home - from determining its sale price, to prioritizing our preparation to put it on the market, to helping us navigate the offers and subsequent inspections prior to closing.
Kim was always persistent and present in all facets of the sale - from helping us get the house ready to put on the market to the final papers being signed.
Seller Rating:
Kim was the only broker we interviewed who really understood the issues we faced with getting our property ready to sell
We had a very complicated sale process. Kim managed the problems and process perfectly. To say she went above and beyond is an understatement. I had to manage the sale from a distance, and Kim took care of things that I couldn't. She was patient, thorough, and a good advisor when unexpected things happened.
We genuinely enjoyed working with Kim. She's a very fun person, and that made a difficult process a lot better.
We are very glad we chose Kim and would recommend her to anyone.
Buyer Rating:
Kimberly Crabtree was so helpful and amazing to work with. She is the best, period. She is so knowledgable and personable which helped make the whole process less intimidating. We can't thank her enough!
Seller Rating:
Kim is an exceptional realtor and comes highly recommended .
Buyer Rating:
Kimberly Crabtree is amazing!! She took the time to make sure we knew what we were doing the entire way. If she didn't know the answer, she would get it and get back to us right away. Could not have asked for a better person to work with!
Buyer Rating:
Kim Crabtree was a friend first, my broker second. I love her like family, because she puts others before herself, she is outrageously honest while being incredibly kind. She has an incredible work ethic, and a talent and verve for life. There is no one else I would want in the search for a home with me.
Kimberly saved the sale of my house. There were some moments when I and the sellers were at a point of no return, and she repeatedly brought us back. I have a hard time balancing work and home and often put my own things aside for my job. Kim made sure that I kept on top of all of my responsibilities without being over-bearing. She kept the train moving, dotting all of the i's and crossing all of the t's. She had an amazing network of professionals to support us in this journey. I literally found the house of my dreams, and would not have without Kim. When friends first view my house they break into giggles because it is literally the perfect house for me.
Kim is incredibly professional. She often served as a mediator, a therapist and an agent all at the same time. Her attention to detail in what I wanted in a home was impeccable. She did not needlessly show me every home in my range, only the ones that she knew I would love. When we first started she would show me multiple homes online, ask questions, and get an understanding of exactly what I was looking for. She once said that I would have to have a list of non-negotiables because I would not be able to find everything on my list. Amazingly, she found everything on my list. Right down to the red door.
I would not buy or sell a house without Kim.
Buyer Rating:
Kim was very professional. She took extra effort regularly to ensure that everything went smoothly. I will definitely use her in my next home purchase. And would highly recommend her to my friends.
Seller Rating:
Kim was so attentive to me, my needs, my asks and anticipated things that I could not foresee. She kept me level and kept all people involved level. The sale would not have happened without her guidance.
She is outstanding at her career.
I would follow Kim wherever she went.
Buyer Rating:
Kim Crabtree was our Realtor for the purchase of our new home. My husband and I have nothing but good things to say about Kim. She was really good at keeping the transaction moving and the lines of communication open with all parties. Additionally she was always accommodating when it came to scheduling inspections or assisting with obtaining documentation from the municipality. We would highly recommend Kim due to her ability to connect with her clients and bring them to a smooth closing!
Buyer Rating:
Kimberly Crabtree was awesome during this process. After my first deal fell apart, I was very discouraged. Kim's positivity and constant reassurance that we were going to find the right house helped tremendously. She kept me positive and was right - we did find the right house. I would recommend her and her associate, Gina Goffredo Donatien to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home.
Seller Rating:
I loved working with Kim! She was very attentive to my needs and concerns and explained everything (sometimes more than once). This was my first home sale and I could not have been happier with Kim's performance.
