My name is Gloria Shouse and I would like to commend Catherine Jones on a job well done. I met Catherine Jones 5 years ago at an open house. At that time I was looking for a retirement home, but wasn’t quite ready to purchase a home since I had not retired yet. Catherine kept me in the loop by providing me with multiple listings through the years. Whenever I saw something on the market, that I was interested in, she would personally go and check it out for me, since I live in California. She was never pushy and always honest. Finally, this year I retired in January, and was able to find a house on the listings that she sent me. This house fit the wants and needs of my husband and myself. We saw the listing on a Saturday then called Catherine on Sunday. She drove to Harstine Island, from Poulsbo, to check out the property on Monday morning, and FaceTimed us so we could see the house. Monday afternoon we asked Catherine to put in an offer, and on Tuesday morning she called us to let us know our offer was accepted!!! She was also able to get someone to do a home inspection on Friday morning. My husband and I drove up to Washington Wednesday, from California, and met Catherine and the inspector at the house on Friday. Catherine was extremely thorough, professional, knowledgeable, and hard working. Her process expertise was excellent and our closing went smoothly. I am grateful that she didn’t give up on me after all these years. Other agents would have written me off. Catherine was very pleasant, friendly, and easy to work with. Another rare quality about her is that she wanted to make sure I was going to be happy with my purchase. She was looking out for my well being, and not just another sale. It is an honor to know her and have worked with someone who is honest, kind, patient, caring, and efficient. Windermere Real Estate is very fortunate to have an agent like Catherine Jones working for them.
