We met Erin in 2010 when we were looking for a place to rent. She was the listing agent for the property that we ended up leasing for seven years. In 2017, we were in the market to buy and began looking at houses aimlessly. We remembered how smoothly the process went with the rental and went looking for Erin. We met with her for about an hour and decided to make her our agent. Erin took the time to explain the entire process and helped us set realistic expectations based on the current local market conditions. After being outbid on the first four properties we made offers on and after a lot of back-and-forth negotiations, we finally closed and are enjoying our new home. Throughout this process, Erin kept us informed and answered all of our questions; we never felt as though we needed to make quick decisions nor did we ever feel overly persuaded into making one choice over another.

Throughout this process, Erin kept us informed and answered all of our questions; we never felt as though we needed to make quick decisions nor did we ever feel overly persuaded into making one choice over another. This was precisely what we were looking for when we went looking for Erin: an agent that could expertly guide us through the process and offer insights, but allow us to make our decisions without undue sales pressure. We will recommend Erin to all of our family members.
Amazing! In every way! She showed us multiple houses during a difficult time (Covid-19). She sent us countless more houses to assess online, taking into account our preferences and needs. She knows the cities and neighborhoods well enough to make terrific recommendations as well. She represented us well when we bought a new house in Orange and when we sold our old house in Stanton. She listed our house at the perfect price, allowing bids to be competitive. We followed her advice every step of the way and she never disappointed us. If and when the time comes again to buy or sell a house, she is who we will turn to. She is truly that good!
As first-time homebuyers, we knew that the process of finding and buying a home was going to be daunting. We had no idea that we'd find a place that we'd love so quickly or that we'd come close to losing on our bid if not for Erin Kociela's sage advice. She patiently carried us through the entire process, doling out advice from her years of experience along the way, and ultimately guiding us all the way through to close on our new home. We're so grateful for all of Erin's support and assistance, and we look forward to calling Erin when we're ready to move into our next home.
