TESTIMONIALS

"Cathy was amazing to work with and we will definitely work with her in the future. We worked with Cathy for our land purchase in 29 Palms and she stood out from the beginning. She replied quickly and was very informative. She provided us with tips and resources to help us get started. She was there for us throughout the whole process and always made us feel comfortable asking all of our questions. Her patience, reliability, and communication skills are excellent."

"Catherine is the best!!! She helped us to find exactly what we were looking for, she never let me give up or just go with whatever was available in the market, she always kept sending me more options. She was always easy to reach, no matter what time or day she will always get back to me immediately. She is also very organized. Definitely the perfect agent to work with, I truly recommend New Coast Living. Now we are the happiest living in our dream house!!!"

"Cathy and her team were amazing in helping my wife and I find our first home! We originally started the home buying process with out a realtor going to new builds but after a referral to Cathy we met and realized how much she could really help us find the best home for us. We had very specific requirements on what we wanted in a house and were willing to take our time. Cathy was super respectful and not pressuring us to purchase a home. This made me feel relieved and knew that she was genuinely looking for our best interests. We ended up finding a home and Cathy was very responsive and had everything organized during escrow. Usually, we hear of horror escrow stories but ours went very smoothly. Even during the time where we asked the seller to pay for fundamental problems in the house. Thank you Cathy and New Coast Living for helping us get our first home! I definitely will use your company when we look at buying rental properties in the future."

"Catherine was amazing! Thorough, extremely professional throughout the whole home buying process. There were so many things that came up that Catherine was on top of every step of the way. She also was very organized and did her due diligence to help us make the best purchase. Her correspondence was unbelievable and that made a huge difference in the whole process."

"My husband and I have no words to express our gratitude. Cathy was on top of everything since day one. Extremely diligent, responsive, and detail oriented. She made our home buying experience seem like it was the smoothest process. We never had to check or follow up with her - she always had answers a few minutes after (even while away on her honeymoon!!!). New Coastal Living went above and beyond. When Cathy was out of the country we had the pleasure of working with Gohar, her business partner, as well. Increidble service from both of them. Besides helping us find our new house, she reminded us of important side details, recommended vendors and gave us her professional insight. We cant put into words her level of professionalism, other than shes just the best out there. We are homeowners because of her! Thank you so much Cathy!"

"Catherine Kim is the reason my wife and I own our new home. We were in serious competition with other buyers for the same house, but Catherine's astute negotiating ability and important recommendations were critical in our offer being accepted. What a win! Catherine's attention to detail, super organizational skills, caring attitude, and perseverance were all contributing factors to a successful purchase. This was not our first rodeo, but Catherine has been, BY FAR, the best agent we have ever had the pleasure of working with. I highly recommend Catherine Kim for your real estate needs."

"I cannot say enough great things about Cathy!!!
One thing I have definitely learned, buying a home for the first time IS HARD. It is a lot of research, a lot of time, a lot of financial conversations, a lot of personal family conversations, and is even more orchestration than a wedding.
Having someone guide us through this process that is aware of all the challenges and can be there for us not just from a client-relationship standpoint, but also understand how personal and intimate this decision was for us was HUGE.
Our home search was almost a year long because we are SO particular, but Cathy was always patient with us and guided us through the process from start to closing. When we were searching around for the right agent, Cathy's meet and greet presentation shed so much light on the massive process, but was also straightforward and easy to understand. We felt very secure in moving forward with her right away.
After our search began, we only gained more peace of mind as we worked more with Cathy. She is so well-organized, proactive, responsive and fought the good fight for us every time.
Escrow was the most challenging and fragile part of the process since we purchased our home during COVID times, we knew anything could happen, timelines were unsure, but that our hearts were already invested so any fallout would be a huge heartbreak.
Because of Cathy, we had solid relationships with all involved parties throughout and we were able through all inspections and negotiations, not only on time, but early! We closed as if it was any other time and now are officially homeowners of our forever dream home!
Cathy has changed our lives for the better and we cannot be more grateful :) I cannot recommend Cathy enough and can't wait to refer her to friends and family so they can all have the same smooth and quality experience we did."

"Absolutely fabulous realtor! Helped me purchase a pocket listed multi-unit dwelling in south orange county. You cannot go wrong with Catherine. She put me in touch with a lender who worked quickly on a tight time frame."
