We always felt confident in the home buying process with you in our corner.
We were shopping for a home, and by chance, my wife stopped at an open house. We met a realtor who has become one of the kindest, hardest-working, and most thoughtful humans we've ever met. Friederike was an advocate for us when we needed one in a tough attempted purchase that didn’t go through, a voice of reason when we needed one in the hard moments of home buying, and always focused on being of service to us. It felt like we had our own personal shopping assistant. When we found the home we wanted, she went above and beyond to tell our story to the owners, and they accepted our offer over several others. To top it off, she’s made sure to drop off a note, card, or gift to each of our four kids during their birthdays over the past year. We will forever work with Friederike!
Friederike delivered exceptional service. From the first day that we met, she spent her entire evening walking me through the big picture. From there on out, she was always available to provide me with the information that I needed (or didn’t need, but needed for the sake of my sanity)—every decision that I made, small or big, mattered to her. Not only did I feel like I had all the information I needed to make those decisions, but I also felt like I was in good hands. Especially because I hadn’t sold a home in a while and I didn’t know all of the questions I should be asking (or dos and don’ts, for example), she would proactively provide this information, which made me feel like I was walking through this process with eyes wide open. From an expectations perspective, I don’t know how Friederike does it, and to the fault of everyone else I worked with, she set my expectations really high—and not unrealistically high—because she would meet them.
In addition, she is also very well versed in dealing with other real estate agents. When there were disagreements about certain verbiage in documents or otherwise, Friederike was patient and worked through some tough situations without breaking a sweat. Her cool, calm mindset and professionalism kept my anxiety low and gave me the confidence she would get the job done—and she did!
Friederike's promptness, knowledge of the market, strategic mindset, kindness, good energy, and big heart made a potentially chaotic property sale process simple. When I am looking to buy or sell in the future, I will not hesitate to call Friederike.
