Testimonials for Cathy Miller


 

We interviewed several agents and were the most impressed with Cathy’s professionalism, honesty and her wide-ranging knowledge of the market and home values. Her background in appraisals and 29 years of experience in real estate helped us price our home that SOLD in one week with multiple offers! We were thrilled and would highly recommend her to anyone!

 Cathy’s extensive experience and negotiating skills turned out to be a life saver for our family! We bought a brand-new home that turned into a nightmare but Cathy intervened with the new home company and got them to give us more money for our inconvenience which went towards our closing costs!  She was a tough negotiator and that’s what you need!! Our family loves her!!

Cathy has been selling homes in our community successfully for a longtime and that is why we chose her. She is extremely knowledgeable in the nuances of the properties and the neighborhood.  We have always been impressed with her marketing skills in here but were wowed with everything she did to get our home sold in one week for over list price! We would always highly recommend her to anyone!

I worked with Cathy to purchase my new home. She was professional, knowledgeable and kind. She always responded immediately to my many questions. She voluntarily completed many tasks which made the process so much easier for me. She knows skilled professionals (contractor, insurance) in South Orange County who were very helpful in this important process. Cathy never pushed me. She was patient, understanding and helpful when I changed my mind, causing her twice the amount of work. She is great.

My husband and I are first time home-buyers, and Cathy was the absolute best. She was knowledgeable and worked with us every step of the way. She stayed in constant communication and has even followed up to see how we are settling in to our amazing new home. She made this process run as smooth and easy as possible for us. I couldn't be happier with this experience.

We are so happy that Cathy was the first agent to we called!  We spoke on the phone on a Friday, texted back and forth different listings.  The following Monday we drove to Mission Viejo, we looked at listings on Tuesday & Wednesday, made two offers on Thursday, then were in escrow the following Friday.  We were really impressed with Cathy’s responsiveness, her knowledge of the city and the market!  She always responded quickly, even when we completely changed gears on what we were looking for.  Her response time made a real difference in getting the house that we wanted.  Once we were in escrow, she arranged all the inspections and got the quotes for the repairs.  She kept in touch with us every step of the way.  I will definitely recommend Cathy to all my friends!

There are not enough words to thoroughly describe how positively we feel towards Cathy. She is the most creative, honest, thorough, conscientious, hard working Real Estate Professional we have ever known. Cathy ALWAYS went above and beyond "the call of duty", ALWAYS!! We were never disappointed in anything that she did or recommended. Being located 900 miles away from Mission Viejo we had to count on Cathy to lead us through the entire selling process, which she did with such a wonderful spirit! She was always available to communicate with us! She is absolutely THE BEST!!!

If I could give Cathy a 10/10, I would hands down. Buying a house is a stressful process full of emotions and unexpected events happening, I had my share of both. Cathy is an expert in her field, if your serious about buying a home and having a realtor who listens to you and is honest with you and won’t just sell you a home “just because” she is the one you want in the Mission Viejo area! She’s respectful of your budget, needs, and wants. She does not push you just because she wants to make her commission she knows that your house your buying is going to be a home and that’s what she makes sure you have is a house that will be your home if it’s for 2 years or 40 years she truly is someone who loves what she does and I love how she does it if anyone is looking to buy in Orange County call her first - Amazing lady!

Our first transaction with Cathy was over three years ago. Cathy has always gone above and beyond what most people expect and find with their realtors. This transaction was a purchase for us, with a very difficult seller. Because of Cathy we were able to get the transaction closed, and on time. We have referred Cathy to several friends and always hear positive from them as well. We will be listing our previous home soon, there is no debate as who will be listing the home for us.

Sold our house very quickly and with expertise and professionalism. She was in contact with us almost daily and found us a cash buyer so quickly! We were very impressed with her professionalism. We highly recommend Cathy, she knows her stuff but most of all is super enthusiastic about it. That is what made us choose her as our agent. Just meet with her and you will be impressed as we were.

I was new to Southern California. Cathy spent so much time and helped me so much -- not just with a home purchase, but every other detail of getting settled in a new town. Cathy is always upbeat, knows and studies the real estate business and is extremely trustworthy. I recommend her most wholeheartedly to anyone looking to buy a home!

Our experience with Cathy was nothing short of perfect. She was very knowledgeable and offered her valuable opinion, often with more information than we would expect to hear. She always returned a phone call or email which made us feel that we were not alone. When we decided on an area and a home, she was with us all the way. Step by step instructions that left us with very few questions. My point is, is that she made the buying process as easy as it can be. No runaround no fluff, just straight to the point. So, if you’re looking for a home and someone to help you, Cathy is your girl.

I was so glad that a coworker got me in touch with Cathy. When I first reached out to her, she immediately got back to me. From there, she created a customized house search and began setting up appointments to see houses.  As a first-time home buyer, Cathy made sure to recommend the best lender, inspector, insurance agent, etc. and explain each process to me along the way so that things made sense and were easy to follow.  Cathy was extremely familiar with the area as well which made it very helpful when deciding on what location would work best for me.  The inspection came back perfect and the appraisal matched our offer exactly.  All the hard work Cathy put in resulted in us closing much earlier than expected and me living in beautiful home in a great community and nice location.  I would recommend Cathy to anyone that is looking to move to Orange County!

This is our second experience with Cathy. She found us a house in a hot Orange County market while we were living in Texas. Needless to say, it is hard to buy a house while living in another state. Cathy handled our neurotic request from afar with no complaints and with the utmost professionalism. We found a great house in a great neighborhood and everything went smoothly. When going to sell this house we once again reached out to Cathy. She did a fantastic job helping us sell during a slow time of year. Every request was met with a caring response and with great knowledge of the market. Couldn't be happier. Thanks Cathy!

Cathy, I agree with all the compliments your clients/comrades have said about you. You are a knowledgeable, caring and energetic real-estate broker. I've lived in Mission Viejo for about 25 years, and know several brokers, but I chose you to sell my house. You know what else? Other area brokers only have good things to say about you too, which speaks volumes.

Over the past year our family has been in a major move from the East Coast to the West Coast.  We were referred to Cathy to be our real-estate agent in Southern California. Cathy located a rental property for our family during the initial transition and upon moving to Mission Viejo and settling in supported us in finding our new home.  Both processes were seamless and with all the moving parts she made the entire experience stress free.

Cathy was able to sell our home in less than 30 days even though it had been on the market for 3 months with 1 other realtor. She worked tirelessly to attract potential buyers to the property. We were very impressed with her and would highly recommend that she be your first choice when buying or selling.

Cathy went out of her way to make the buying and selling process as smooth and enjoyable as possible.  We were buying in a market where houses were going off the market the day they were listed.  Cathy listened to our concerns and just worked that much harder, even meeting us for a showing at 7 AM when it was the only time we could all meet!  She was very knowledgeable in the whole process, explained everything along the way and guided us with strong professionalism, humor when we needed to get rid of some stress, and gave us the confidence we needed to make the right decisions. During the selling and buying process, Cathy kept us informed every step of the way, and we never once felt out of the loop.  If we ever decide to move again, we will definitely be asking Cathy to help us!  WE LOVE OUR REALTOR!!
