My goal as a Realtor® is to create an experience that people will remember. I realized shortly after becoming an Airbnb host that I love everything that comes along with hospitality. I want you to feel effortlessly welcomed into the Philly Home Girls circle, and leave as a friend (and with a house!).
After years working in photojournalism and marketing, I shifted gears to real estate. The change came after purchasing a 5-acre home in the Catskill Mountains with my friends, and becoming a Superhost with our Airbnb rental.
Over the past eleven years in Philadelphia, I’ve lived in several areas, including Fairmount, Fishtown, Pennsport, and Queen Village, where I currently live. I've enjoyed learning what makes each neighborhood special and becoming a regular at local businesses. In the mornings you'll find me at Three Queens Yoga, and in the evenings at Good King Tavern.
When I'm not unlocking doors, I enjoy cooking at home, hiking the Wissahickon trails, rock climbing, watering my many house plants and boogying in my living room. While the Catskills are my second home, my two favorite places to visit are Cuba and Ireland.
As an out of state buyer I was expecting the process to be somewhat arduous but it ended up being incredibly easy, largely due to how confident I felt working with Kate and everyone she recommended.
Totally understood (and helped us understand) our own wants, needs, limitations, strategies, moves to make, what to think about. Has great taste and knows Philly in all the right ways <3
We started the process full of questions, concerns, and anxiety, but her patience, kindness, and expertise put us at ease. She offered invaluable guidance on staging, pricing, marketing, and negotiations, and her knowledge and approachable nature made all the difference.
She was very helpful and patient and walked us through the whole process. Philly Home Girls had excellent resources and guides to help us as well. We wouldn't have found our mortgage lender or contractors without them! 10/10 would recommend.
She was responsive and honest throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer my questions and provide advice for my concerns, and I never felt pressured to make a decision I wasn’t comfortable with—Kate was genuinely concerned about helping me find the right home, not just closing a deal.
Kate is attentive, a great listener, a literal mind reader, and is a super cool human. I recommend her as an agent to anyone who will listen!
She *really* listened to us and helped us refine our search. She would send us homes that felt much, much more our speed. It's like she was in our heads.
She is exceptionally knowledgeable about the area and was always very quick to respond. Can't recommend PHG and Kate enough!
We look forward to working with Kate in the future!
Not only did she help me navigate the process from start to finish, she made me feel confident in my new journey while exuding extensive knowledge of the area and typical Philadelphia structures. to working with Kate in the future!
