Ratings & Reviews
We had an incredible experience working with Cathy! Her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Cathy went above and beyond to find the perfect home for us, always available to answer questions and provide guidance. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home—you won’t find a better realtor!
Cathy is a wonderful realtor who advocates for her clients! Best in the business!
Part 2......Since I purchased a new construction, there were a bunch of house inspections and meetings to attend. However, I was already out of the country for six months, therefore I could not be present for any of them. Cathy was willing to be there at every inspection and meeting on behalf of me and consistently kept me in the loop and updated on everything about the house. She literally guided me through the whole process from Day 1 to the very last day, which is closing. Hence, I was able to come home to a beautiful home. I am so glad to have met such an amazing realtor and could not ask for a better one! Thank you very much again, Cathy for everything you've done for me. It meant a lot!!
My first encounter with Cathy was in July, 2021 when I first started looking around to purchase a home in the Raleigh area. As many buyers would normally have many requirements and difficulties of their own, I was also that buyer. My situation was that I had to leave the country for six months for work at the beginning of 2022. Cathy, then suggested that I would look into a new construction in the Raleigh area and I had found the area/community I wanted to live in. It sure was difficult to get a lot in the community because they were utilizing a lottery system at the time. However, as Cathy has connections with many builders/developers, she was able to set up a meeting with one of the community managers/home specialists for me to potentially secure a lot in the community. Well, I literally got a home secured on the day of our meeting. Thanks to Cathy! Another thing about her is that she would sacrifice her own time to help anyone out to get you a dream house! Since I purchased a new...
Cathy is awesome. She goes more than the extra mile for everyone. You don't feel like a client, with Cathy, you're family.
Cathy Comella-Ports is an amazing realtor. We were in the process of trying to sell our home in the middle of the Covid Pandemic. Cathy arranged individual walk thrus for potential buyers. Cathy orchestrated safe and sanitary open house visits, and created virtual tours. Cathy not only helped us sell our home, but she went out of her way to make sure we found & secured a new home. She made the selling and buying process seem so incredibly easy. We are so thankful for all of her knowledge and assistance. I would recommend Cathy to any of my friends and use her assistance again if I was ever in the market to buy or sell a new home.
Cathy was a very personable realtor to work with. My fiance and I are a young adult couple who we’re trying to find our first home in Raleigh NC, a well known metropolis. We fought and she fought alongside us to get us past a very worrying appraisal process on our dream, now current, home. A great negotiator who genuinely seems to care about her clients and their housing needs, as people, and not just another number in her books. Would work with her again to close on another home in the future.
Cathy was honestly the best realtor anyone could ask for. She is always so helpful and responsive. She made buying our home so easy and fixed any issues before they even came up! She clearly knows what she is doing and she really takes the time to get to know you. She didn’t just want to sell us a house, she wanted to make sure it was the right house and did everything to make sure we were satisfied. I can’t say enough positives about her! If you’re looking for a realtor you HAVE to go with her! She’s always very upfront and makes sure you understand every step of the process. Love her so much!
Cathy was very knowledgeable about all of our first buyer questions and concerns, the market, and the process in general. She was not pushy for a sale and we really appreciated that. She pointed out both good and bad things in houses we looked at to make sure we knew what we were getting into. Oncewe did get a house she never pushed us to raise our bid (even against competing bids higher) and we managed to get our house anyway! We will certainly use her again if we move and have recommended her to friends and families.
We loved working with Cathy! She is an outstanding agent that helped us navigate the crazy market and find the perfect home for us. As first-time home buyers, we needed someone that was knowledgeable about the process and patient with our timeline, and Cathy definitely delivered.
Cathy is great! Patient. I appreciate her for so many reasons! I originally had another realtor whom was unresponsive, appeared uninterested because I didn't do what they wanted. I always appreciated Cathy's response, communication and explanations as I had not purchased a home in years. She understood, I was buying my home, my sanctuary, and investing. Even though my vision changed, she continued to be professional, explained all the details & made me feel empowered in my decisions. A great person makes a great realtor!
As a first time home purchaser, I would have been totally lost without the expert and friendly guidance of agent Cathy Comella-Ports in guiding my wife and I through the sometimes very confusing process of buying a home. From her broad knowledge of the real estate market to her expertise in the legal arcana of the closing, Cathy was there to answer any questions we had and if necessary to intervene on our behalf. Her knowledge, abilities and willingness to go the extra mile saved us time and money, and, no exaggeration, our sanity. A pleasure to work with, I would not hesitate to recommend her to family and friends as their real-estate agent.
Cathy was amazing to work with - she was extremely flexible with her schedule and made us feel like her only clients. She was very knowledgeable and really helped guide us every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor for our first home buying experience!
Cathy went way above and beyond what we expected from a realtor when purchasing our home. The process was doubly hard for her, since we were living out of the country at the time and she helped us with EVERYTHING! And such a sweet person to work with. Now we feel she is part of the family!
Cathy has provided me with an outstanding, first time experience. It wasn’t easy, because I was coming from out of state, but she made sure that I got what I wanted.
