“My first time selling a home and I was paired with the right agent(Katherina Michalopoulos). Everything that I needed to know, Katherina taught me and any problems that arose, she took control to find an answer as to how we were to proceed. I considered her a partner in the transaction, not just an agent. Even though Katherina was working for me, it never felt that way.”
