"Kathy does all the work for you! We had planned on trying "For sale by owner" first, but we interviewed Kathy and decided after her presentation to go ahead and list. She has construction experience and is able to point out areas that need to be addressed, as well as knowing the cost/value of updating those areas. She knows the market and can give sound advice concerning listing prices and home values. Her professional photography for the listing and the amount of advertising on many sites is outstanding. Her response time is very quick, you have access to showing schedules and feedback. She makes selling a home as worry-free as possible."

"I would highly recommend Kathy Shank to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, honest and personable realtor. She has handled 2 sales for us. First she assisted my wife's family in selling her mother’s home 10 years ago and most recently, our home. She was very patient and listened to what we wanted then guided us thru the process. She expertly marketed the properties and we obtained the listing price with a very quick contract both times. Once again, she provides outstanding professional real estate service. Thank you Kathy!"

  -Ashley A., Client

"Kathy was my realtor when I moved to the Martinsburg, WV area and I was looking to buy a home. She was VERY patient with me. She literally drove me around for 3.5 months before I found the right home for me - yes, I am a very picky buyer! But she did it with a smile and I never felt pressured from her or that she was getting frustrated with me. After I bought my home, Kathy continued the relationship with a nice touch. Every Fall season, she would leave a very tasteful and artistic Fall season display on my front porch, consisting of pumpkins, various squashes and gourds, Indian corn, etc. It was really a nice touch. After 6 years, I was moving out of state, and there was only one realtor for me to help me sell my house, and that was Kathy! She came by 6 months before I was ready to list and did a walk through with me and gave me valuable feedback on things I could do to my house that would help it sell quicker. Then when we did list, Kathy marketed my house in many ways to in"

  -Kyle J., Client

"I was lucky enough to meet up with Kathy when she showed me a home I had been interested in. Turns out that particular home was not ideal for me. Kathy took the time to listen to my wants/needs and asked all the appropriate questions to get a good feel for what I was interested in. Extremely professional, and very knowledgeable of the surrounding area, in addition to her construction experience, she was able to provide listings that were much closer to what I really wanted in my price point. She never hesitated and was always available to meet me for a showing and was always very honest about the homes we looked at. It was not long after meeting Kathy, that I had found the 'one' and had an offer submitted, and ultimately won! Kathy really does do all the work for you! I could not be happier with her services and would not hesitate to recommend Kathy to any Buyer/Seller needing an extremely qualified realtor!"

We recommend Kathy to everyone ! "

"Kathy is amazing. Knowledgeable, imaginative, honest and fast. But that is just the beginning. She really listened to my hopes and expectations, candidly guided me to present my house in its best light without ever freaking out about my dog and 4 cats. Almost unbelievably, my house sold in 5 days at a price I found very reasonable. That is because she knows the market so thoroughly and markets aggressively while being totally honest with everyone. A great negotiator. Always has time to answer every question, move forward on every stage rapidly. I most enthuastically recommend her to anyone buying or selling."

"I'm not sure I can say enough about how accommodating and helpful Kathy was throughout this entire home-buying process. I knew from the moment I saw this home that it was the one I wanted and Kathy bent over backwards from day one to make sure everything worked to OUR advantage. From price negotiation and making sure things got repaired that we wanted repaired to working with my mobility challenges and going into the basement and taking pictures so that I could text them to my truck driver husband to helping me measure windows for blinds and finally celebrating with us on the day of closing, she was an absolute Godsend. Compared to the realtor I had when I purchased my first home, it was night and day. I wouldn't recommend anyone else."

She answered all my questions and concerns and kept me updated on the progress of the sell of my previous house and helping me navigate the process of purchasing my new house with the builder.
