Recommendation
"In such a highly competitive and highly volatile market it’s rare to find a pro like Katie Ledford who truly cares about you and delivers the crucial information you need to promptly make an education decision. She knows the real estate business inside and out. I would recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy a new home and wants to be on the winning side of a bid.
Katie’s local knowledge makes searching for a new home so enjoyable. She has a knack for understanding where the market is heading and how to put in a winning offer. Katie’s attention to detail is second to none.
Katie was so polite and fun to be around it was like she was loath of the family. She was always available for a call, text or last minute showing. Her way of doing business has always been, in my mind, the way to be successful in any business. Being a people person and being dependable is a winning combo.
Best realtor I have ever worked with hands down and I have moved 14 times."

"Katie was the essence of a true professional who in the end I consider a friend. Katie had great knowledge of the area and of our needs. She found us the perfect home and guided us thru multiple offers and all the paperwork. Katie is an excellent member of your firm and I would highly recommend her.
We were not accustomed to the new real estate market of fast multiple bids and how quickly houses were sold. Katie guided us through it with the ease of a seasonal professional and we obtained the home of our dreams without any fuss. I thank her for her hard work and for being there when we needed her.
Do everything you can to keep her in your firm. She is a true asset."

"Katie was awesome. She found us a beautiful home in the Biltmore Lake area, an area we likely would not have explored on our own. Katie made herself available 24/7 by phone, text and email. Never found it difficult to reach Katie and she was always there to put out fires and answer questions. And importantly, made the whole buying experience fun. She continues to help us finding and meeting contractors for fencing and landscaping. Served as a liaison between HoA and contractors while we are out of state. She continues to help us even after closing. Highly recommend Katie if you are looking for a home in the Ashville area. Thanks Katie!"

"We were looking for someone who knew our relocation area, would take care of our needs, and was personable!
Katie's communication skills are the best I have ever dealt with in my numerous real estate transactions. Extrememly knowledgeable of the real estate market in the Hendersonville/asheville area. She understood our requirements, financing issues, and timing. Katie made the entire process enjoyable and painless!
Katie was unbeleivable. She diligently worked to find the appropriate housing in a great location. Negotiated a very fair price, and make the contract negotiations painless, and more importantly stayed on top of all the issues. Closing went perfectly. Home inspection and required improvements were personally handled by Katie, and were completed!
Wonderful experience with Katie!"

Recommendation
"We met with Katie, who was extremely knowledgeable of the area we live, had done a lot of research on sales in the area, suggested an aggressive but saleable price for our home to sell in a reasonable amount of time, and it turned out she was completely on target on both issues.
The people that bought our home and their agent were quite demanding, and on several occasions we were ready to say no. But Katie kept calm, did an excellent job working with both their agent and the buyers from the initial viewing through the final walk through making it so much easier on us. On many occasions Katie helped out with contractors and cleaning people when we could not be there. She did an outstanding job and we are grateful we selected her.
Selling a home is a stressful time. Yet with Katie's positive attitude and approach, and with her always being there to assist and advise, the sale and move were the easiest we have experienced in the many times we have moved. I would recommend Katie to any potential seller or buyer. She gives you 110% effort with professionalism and a smile.
Katie did an excellent and very professional job in marketing our home. She was there for every viewing and even brought in a couple of potential buyers she knew personally that she thought would be a good fit for our home. She worked tirelessly and that is probably the biggest reason we sold our home in a short period of time for a very good price.
We only dealt with one other person who came in to help stage the house. She was excellent and was very helpful."

"Katie was so great to work with. We were first time homebuyers, and we were relatively clueless through the process. She broke everything down and made it easy to navigate. It was fun to work with someone who was just as excited about the process as we were!"

"Over the past 35 years I have owned five houses, for personal use and seasonal rentals (AirBNB). I have also sold a few, and so I have dealt with a fair number of brokers & agents. I will say....that I wish they all had half the expertise and drive of Katie Ledford.
Katie is extremely knowledgeable and if she is not sure of something, she researches it and has the answer in practically no time. She is very personable, open minded, a great communicator, and has more drive than a 16 gear tractor trailer. My purchase went quickly and smoothly. Aside from the actual sale and property, Katie was extremely helpful with resources for outfitting and furnishing the house. Great restaurant suggestions also.
I can't say enough about Katie and if I ever buy or sell another property here, I want her to be my agent."

"Katie was very knowledgeable about the area,and taught us a lot about the market in Asheville. She was always upbeat and positive when we had our down times. She advised us during the negotiating process and everything else involved in the purchase. Very happy with our choices.
Very thoughtful and helped with all aspects of our time with her in a difficult relocation with only one person here during the move"

"I started working with Katie while I was still living in Hawaii. She was helpful with finding me a place to live during the COVID pandemic. She was also very attentive to the areas that I needed to look, but also allowed me to explore the area. She was very helpful in helping me with the paperwork and worked with me to get the best deal and the quickest results.
I would recommend Katie to anyone that was looking for a home."

"I would definitely recommend Katie Ledford to anyone considering buying a home in the Asheville area. She is very professional but also has a great friendly personality.
She was always available to take my calls, texts or emails.
Although we were in NJ during most of the process we never felt the distance because Katie would send pictures or video of the property. We can't thank Katie enough for all she has done to make our dream a reality."

Katie went the extra mile(s) when she spent time with our family to explore the vast variety of what Asheville has to offer.

"It was a pleasure working with Katie Ledford. She’s very good at what she does, I was very happy to have the opportunity to meet her and have her be part of buying my retirement home. She was always there when I needed her and was willing to do whatever she could do to help things go well and to help me out. It’s not easy when you live in another state and you are trying to buy a piece of property, she really helped ease my stress. I have already recommended Katie to my family and friends!"

"Katie Ledford was absolutely awesome. She contacted me by both phone and email. She was not pushy and would send me occasional emails with houses that may be interesting to me. She is very responsive. We went to see two homes I had selected. The first one was ok, but Katie saw things that I didn't and she brought them to my attention. For the second home, she suggested that I owed it to myself to look at it because I wasn't going to take the time to look. Boy am I glad I listened to her. It ended up being the perfect home for us and we closed on it within 30 days. I love our new home and feel I owe it all to Katie. She made home buying easy and fun."

"Katie Ledford was energetic, very responsive and paid appropriate attention to the details of the transaction. She was very knowledgeable of the area, the home we were buying and things we should take into consideration during the purchasing process. By arranging a meeting with a financing advisor early in the process (i.e. the day after we met her) we were able to quickly put together an attractive offer with a early closing date.
Katie was extremely easy to work with, responded quickly to any questions and helped to close the purchase in a very timely fashion."
