I don’t usually write reviews, especially good ones. But in this case, I feel really compelled to. If you asked me my opinion of real estate agents, well lets just not go there. Cathy recently helped me buy a home in Oak Bay. Our meeting was purely by chance. I saw a listing on the MLS and didn’t have a local agent and called her about it. Cathy called me back and she had just sold the listing. We spent 90 minutes on the phone talking about what was important to me. I was also preparing to sell my home in the city. Upon listing my home in the “Big Smoke”, an insane amount of showings were scheduled on the first day. I was shocked. There would be 85 by the time I got to “offer day” 6 days later. I called Cathy and said I am going to be homeless! As luck would have it, there was a brand new listing that I could see the next day. For the record, we looked at 5 other properties before this one. Oak Bay was saved to the last and it turned out to be “the one”. We drew up an offer and it was presented hours later. All done on my phone! Everything explained and I asked lots of dumb questions. It has been 17 years since I had been through this process. Amazing that you can now make the largest purchase of your life by pushing your finger on a mobile phone screen. I was concerned that Cathy was representing me as a buyer when she was also representing the seller. Cathy was completely transparent, ethical and worked with my best interests in mind. There was a counter offer required as another offer materialized on the property the following day. The ease was the same as the initial offer. I am now the ecstatic owner of this new property, all with Cathy’s help. I am not one to hand out compliments and accolades. I work for a big bank and even if you hate big banks, customer service is a religion in the area I work in. I said to Cathy, I wish you were selling my place in the city as well. 2 very different experiences. I would not hesitate to recommend Cathy for your real estate needs. She was amazing and fantastic. Thank you Cathy for an absolutely awesome experience! - Rick S.

Cathy, from our first telephone conversation we connected. It felt like we had known each other for a long time and knew exactly what we were looking for in the sale of our home as well as the purchase. Our two dogs (Cheyenne and Tequila Rose) were always waiting for their "Aunt Cathy" who spoiled them and showered them with love. Cathy is extremely professional, personable and her attention to detail made our sale and purchase worry free. The entire experience can be overwhelming and you walked us through every step from believing in us, to selling our home and purchasing another and all the business details in between. Your expertise in this field is outstanding and your patience is commendable. You were always there for us and it was a pleasure working with you. - Paul & Debra June 2018

Cathy Korpi is an excellent real estate agent, hands down! My husband and I have had many real estate transactions throughout the years and it has been so refreshing to deal with someone who is knowledgeable, professional and has integrity. Cathy is the real deal. She thinks outside the box and has many creative ideas to share. She goes above and beyond to make sure that your experience is positive and comfortable. Cathy really cares. She calls just to see how you are doing and if there is anything you need. These are extremely stressful times during the pandemic. When you hear your agent say the words, “don’t worry about this, I’ll take care of it”, it just gave us a feeling of relief! Cathy adds value, she is resourceful and we highly recommend her." - Cathy & Jeff Kinnear
