My husband and I tought we could do it all on our own by renting our house while living in another state, unfortunately we were wrong. From the first we met Kathy we realized that we were dealing with a knowledgeable, professional person. We hired Kathy to be our property manager after dealing with some bad tenants. She worked for us for almost 5 years, she handled maintenance and repair issues, she always willing to do whatever was needed to get things done. Truthfully, we can not find anything wrong to say about her, she is delightful, and very intelligent. Kathy Yannes also helped us sold the house. When she put the house on the market we got an offer within 3 days. The offer was good but not what we really wanted, so she went back and talked to the buyer, did her little magic and got us the exact offer that we wanted. As a property manager/ realtor, Kathy Yannes is the best. She will always be our realtor, and we will be very happy to recommend her.

Kathy sold us a home in Riverview, FL in late 2007. Our first offer was accepted and we were thrilled to have a beautiful home with a pool on conservation at a great price. Our deal was done long distance - between Pennsylvania and Florida - and it went smoothly. She explained each step and there were no surprises.However - the economy surprised us and we were unable to relocated. Kathy not only sold us our house, but managed the property with great tenants that paid on time. In the four years that we rented the home we had two renters and it was only vacant for two months.I would highly recommend Kathy and would do business with here again!

Kathy helped our little family find the perfect house and at the perfect time. She worked very hard to find what we were looking for. We could not be happier with our (fairly) new home. Kathy is great with communication and fought for us every step of along the way to make sure that we got the best deal. Working with her has been an ideal partnership and I look forward to working together again in the further.

I highly recommend Kathy as a real estate agent. She is a real pro. Her dedication was impeccable. Kathy took the time to understand what we were looking for in a new home, as well as gaining an understanding of our financial situation. She marketed out home in such a way that it was only on the market four days. Her character displays true professionalism. Kathy has been in the business for over 30 years, and one can tell that she loves what she does. In the unlikely event that I would ever need to buy/sell again, Kathy would be my first phone call.

Kathy is very skilled at what she does. We sold our house when the market was slow and she was extremely proactive in having open houses and showing the property. When we had a serious buyer she was amazing at being the voice of reason while making sure all our needs were met. I very much enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to anyone purchasing or selling their home.

I think Kathy secret to success is that there's no shortcut for hard work, determination and having that don't give up attitude. She stuck with us for months through several challenges and even looked for homes in different cities when our needs changed. These are the characteristics of a excellent realtor. I can't thank her enough. She help us find the home of our dreams.

You can't go wrong with Kathy Yannes. She was our property manager for 3 years and was very professional and organized. Any issue we had with our property was solved promptly. She went above and beyond what I would expect from a property manager to take care of you. After 3 years we decided to sell the house and Kathy did an outstanding job in finding a buyer in no time and going through a smooth closing. I have buy and sell many properties and Kathy has been hands down the best.
Highly recommend!!!

We worked with Kathy from a distance to sell my parents' property in Florida (we live in Wisconsin). She went above and beyond to get the property ready for sale, knew exactly what the market would bear, and was instrumental in getting the quick sale we needed. She made the entire process a breeze, during what could have been an otherwise stressful time.

Kathy helped us sell our home in Riverview and find our new one in Valrico. The process took some time due to the heated nature of the market here in Florida. Kathy was patient and helpful as I kept tabs on the market, changed our minds on some things, and went out and looked at several properties (and made several offers). The market was pretty competitive, too, so it took some real trial and error to find the right one. Kathy was helpful and supportive through the whole process. It was like having a coach. And she knew the right one would come along. And... it did. Funny, too, because at the end I was ready to offer way too much for the house just to get it done. But, Kathy talked me off that ledge and she helped put in a good competitive offer that worked. We landed the house for about $20K less than I was about to offer. Once we did some remodeling on the new place, we turned around and sold our home in Riverview. Kathy made it look easy, having the house under contract in a weekend and for an amount we never would have thought it would sell for. The whole process worked out great and my wife and I appreciate all of Kathy's help and patience.

We needed to sell my Mom and Dad's home in Sun City Center, FL. and my brother and I lived in different states. My Dad hired Kathy to help sell their house and we were very impressed by her knowledge and ability to get the most out of the sale. It was a long process in our case but she was very patient and did an excellent job keeping in touch with my brother and I as the process went along. She offered great advice and we felt she was very honest with us. Would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs a great realtor.

Kathy helped us find a home in 2007 and when we found out we were moving back to the Tampa area, I knew I wanted to work with her again. She had a window of 2 days to help us find a home and she worked tirelessly and tenaciously. I would recommend her as an agent hands down.

Kathy did an outstanding job of helping my family find the perfect home. Her professionalism and extensive knowledge of all aspects of home buying are off the charts. Any questions or fears she completely addressed and her timely responses alleviated any stress we may have had. When viewing homes she looked for signs of potential problems which could've been or were show stoppers, she genuinely has your best interest at heart. We contacted Kathy in April 2015 and closed on our home in Sep 2015, she never pressured us and patiently stood by us to the very end. I'm a 30 year Airforce veteran that has encountered many types of individuals and Kathy bar none, is one of the top professionals I've met. Choose her to find your next home, trust me you WILL NOT go wrong! Jerome E. Stephens CMSgt (Ret) USAF

Kathy is knowledgeable and patient. Knowledgeable in the market; the local neighborhoods; the buying and selling process... Patient in working with picky buyers (like me); never giving up and knowing when to step up. Two powerful components that make her successful. Home buying and home selling are two major events in a person's life. Having an expert handle the listing, fielding questions and helping the buyer/seller through this process is invaluable. I recommend Kathy Yannes all day long and would utilize her again should the opportunity arise.

Kathy found us our dream home within a couple weeks of giving her our list of requirements. We were only semi-serious buyers at the time but she showed us the perfect house and negotiated a deal we couldn't say no to. We are beyond happy with Kathy's service and dedication to us during our home purchase. We decided to keep our previous home when we moved into our new house and Kathy now manages that property for us as well. She found us a great tenant within weeks of our rental being on the market and handles every facet of the tenant process allowing us a worry and stress free rental property. Kathy is a wonderful realtor and an even better person. Highly recommended!

Kathy is extremely professional and her positive yet calm demeanor kept us confident about the sales process throughout. She was excellent at helping us to make the right choices in terms of areas of our house where upgrades would help our sales price versus other areas that were not worth the expense. She kept us well informed throughout the showing process and helped us sort through offers. Finally, she was very proactive with getting us the closing date and signing conditions we needed to have the sale work for us. Overall, I could not recommend Kathy more highly, she is a true professional!

The mortgage companies keep changing the rules, dragging their feet, misplacing documents, and selling the mortgage. It Was A nightmare! Kathy could've given up on us numerous time's but she hung in there with us fighting on our behalf till the bitter end! I can't thank her enough. She takes good care of you. She's a lovely person. I would use her again in a heart beat.

Kathy is FABULOUS! She took the time to come over and HONESTLY assess the home value based on comps. Recommended some home improvements and then listed the house. We had 1-2 offers in the first couple of days and sold it in 6. There was a house next door that had been on the market for 3 months before ours. Kathy is the best of 4 other realtors I have dealt with in the Brandon/Riverview/Lithia area.

Kathy was handpicked for us by my parents who are realtors in another state. Her long career in real estate was the key to our success in finding the right home. During our search process Kathy was helpful, honest, knowledgable and extremely accessible. What I appreciated the most was that she was not pushy and did not push us into a higher price range when we could not initially find a home within our desired price range. Above and beyond at all times, a real gem!

When I inquired for the best realtor to sell our home in Sun City Center, Florida, Kathy was recommended as the best by other Florida professionals. They were right. From our first meeting through the sale of the property, Kathy conducted the marketing, advising, coordination and support to perfection. Many times she went above and beyond expectations to help us with repairs, referrals, and extraordinary complications and negotiations. Thanks, Kathy, for all your help. I hope that we were satisfactory clients. You certainly were outstanding as our support and representation.

We are so pleased we used Kathy Yannes to sell my mom's house in Sun City Center. She made the whole process painless. She gave us an honest assessment of the home's value and it sold quickly. We live in another state so it was important for us to have a realtor we could trust to make sure the house showed well. She took care of repair issues and maintenance needs. She even found a buyer for the furniture we had left for staging purposes! She has many years of experience both in buying and selling houses and also property management. She was quick to respond to our questions and needs. We highly recommend Kathy as someone you can trust. Thanks Kathy!

Kathy Yannes is a highly organized and skilled professional. When we explained to her what we were looking for she showed up each time with a set of documents for us and a copy for herself of each house that she scheduled for us to view. She laid out an efficient route and took us to each house. As we went through several negations and offers Kathy always had our best interest in mind. She worked hard for us and I would and do recommend her to anyone who is interested in buying or selling Real Estate. Kathy is very personable, has a great personality, handles challenges very well and is an excellent real estate professional. She answered all questions we ask and help us find and negotiate our home of our dreams.

I have worked with Kathy Yannes for about 5 years. We needed the services of a realtor to increase the visibility of our property as it is in a gated townhouse community. She has helped me to find top quality renters. Kathy not only gave us advice about our rental property but helped us connect with service providers in the area. I trust her judgement because she has worked in this area for many years and knows about the property management and rental business. Going with ReMax and Kathy Yannes to find a tenant has been a blessing and I will never go at it alone again !

We highly recommend her services.

Over the years I have purchased several different properties and dealt with various real estate companies and their agents. Always, each agent failed to meet their obligations as an agent and most where very unprofessional. All my negative experiences with real estate agents changed to positive when my wife and I met Kathy Yannes, ReMax agent. Straight away she displayed a genunie and honest approach in assisting with finding the 'right house' to suit or special needs. Always she proved to be professional and knowledgeable in all real estate matters. Due to personal circumstances, we had to locate to a different area in Florida, however, we did have a condo we needed to sell. Kathy listed the property for us and had a contract within 30 days of listing. She has assisted us in every step of the sale process, along with providing us with pertinent information and support. My wife and I regard Kathy as a dear friend as well as the best real estate agent we have had the pleasure of meeting. She is persistent in making your real estate sale or purchase a positive experience.
