Testimonials

Kat Walsh walked me through my first home purchase with grace and expertise. We were dealing with a difficult seller/builder and their frequently delayed-in-responding broker. Kat was pro-active, tenacious and calm! I would give Kat Walsh more stars than 5, if I could!

What a tremendous experience I had with Kat Walsh this year. Her knowledge of our town, her network of professionals and her follow up with me and my wife was outstanding. I am pleased to recommend Kat and her team to anyone looking to join us as neighbors at the beach! Thank you again, Kat. With most sincere thanks and admiration, S. Marcus

My husband and I have been working with Kat exclusively for many years on purchases, sales and rentals of several Long Beach properties. She is unlike any realtor we have ever dealt with. She is professional, knowledgeable about the market and extremely personable. She goes over and above what is expected of a realtor because she cares so much. Kat is genuine and tells you like it is. She is hardworking like no other and a truly amazing person. I'm so happy we found Kat to help us with all our real estate needs!

My wife and I worked with with Kat Walsh for 1 1/2 years searching for our ideal property on the West End of Long Beach. We had a pretty decent list of must haves and Kat had her work cut out for her. Kat never gave up on us. She remained in constant contact with us throughout the entire 18 months whether she had properties for her us to look at, or she didn't and just wanted us to know she had not forgotten about us. She showed us a number of properties we would potentially be interested in and "comps" so we would know what was selling. In the end we were the first clients in on open house and after some impressive negotiation skills, we were able to secure the perfect house that checked off all of our boxes. In our opinion, Kat is the ONLY real estate agent on the West End. We could not have had a better experience, and we are not first time home buyers. We highly recommend Kat Walsh!

I have been working with Kat for 3+ years now, including two home purchases. First off, she knows Long Beach better than anyone. She guided me seamlessly to a home that was exactly what I wanted. She worked her butt off to make sure the negotiations worked for me. On top of that, she always answers my calls to help me out with any of my homeowner needs- which is always super helpful with her endless list of Long Beach contacts. Definitely use Kat Walsh if you are looking to buy or sell homes in Long Beach

Kat Walsh is an exceptional agent who always goes above and beyond for every client she works with. I have been working with Kat for years and I am always amazed at how hard she works and how she cares deeply for everyone she works with. I trust her explicitly on every decision I make. I would tell anyone looking for homes or rentals to only work with Kat and they will also be amazed and 100% satisfied. She is professional and the hardest working women I ever met in my life!

Kat Walsh is an absolute super star! AAA+++. Honest, reliable and always puts her clients first! The best real estate broker I have worked with in my 20+ years of real estate investing. I have recommended Kat to my family and friends. All feedback was VERY POSTIVE based on their transactions with her. We all agree she is simply the best!!!!

We loved working with Kat - She starts her day early and never stops. She's easy to get a hold of and follows up on every detail. She is dedicated, hard working and a whole lot of fun too! I called her based on a recommendation from a friend and I'm so glad I did :)

It was our pleasure working with Kat. She found a buyer for our home and helped us negotiate the sale. She was responsive to our concerns and followed up with us to ensure we were comfortable with the process of entering into a contract of sale and closing. I recommend her highly and would not hesitate to recommend her to family and friends. If I ever need a real estate agent in the future she will be my go to person.

Kat Walsh is an exceptional person and her skills as a realtor are outstanding! From the first time we spoke about putting my house on the market until the completion of the sale, Kat was there to answer all my questions, help guide me through decisions along the way. I'm very happy with the outcome and I have Kat to thank for it. "Above and beyond" doesn't even touch the level of commitment Kat has for her clients! I highly recommend Kat!

Kat Walsh of Petrey Real Estate is truly a top star and real breath of fresh air! I was dealing with several agents from different firms while looking for a rental, and she was BY FAR the BEST of them. She really listens to you, is hard working, knowledgeable, always responsive, and very caring. From the moment I interacted with her, I felt her warm and friendly style, and was nothing short of blown away by her. She takes excellent care of you from start to finish, she makes you feel like you are her only client, and working with her was so easy. She is always on top of the process, and a terrific guide. She explained everything simply, and I never felt rushed, or as if I was being sold something, or pushed into any decision. Every other agent I worked with gave me the same typical pitches you would expect, and were so pushy when I felt unsure. In the end, it was one of Kat's listings I chose, not only was the property the best one for me, but I felt that moving forward with her was a no-brainer. She was always honest, professional, responsible, straightforward, and respectful, and from now on I will only look to her for my real estate needs because I know she will do right by me. I can honestly say you will not go wrong working with her in any capacity. You will see what I mean when you meet her. This arena needs more agents like Kat Walsh!

Kat has been our agent for the past five years. She has guided us to the perfect rentals year after year. She listened and only showed us properties which met our qualifications. This past summer she found us the perfect home to buy! Kat was professional, efficient and beyond helpful in handling all negotiations. If you are looking for a home in the Long Beach/Atlantic Beach area, I recommend Kathleen Walsh.

I can't say enough good things about Kat. Kat listened to what mattered me in my first home, and lead me to options that fit those needs. Once I found what I wanted, she worked relentlessly to make sure that it became my home. She works with a team of experts, who are efficient and honest, and made me feel taken care of the entire time. I wanted a quick closing process, and Kat and her team made it possible to close and move in to my home 45 days from offer. If you have the opportunity to work with Kat, take it. She is an expert in the market and works with the best of the best from Mortgage advisors, inspectors, attorneys, and knows the best spots in town. Kat is the best, and I couldn't be happier with my experience!

As the landlord, she provided me with the service that was responsive and helpful and the tenants that were credible and stress-less. I not only would recommend her, I would love to work for her. On top of that, she does it with a genuine energy and friendliness that is beyond rare. Simply put, Kat is the real deal!

Kathleen Walsh is absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone. She is beyond friendly, personable, and will get you what you want. She treats you like family and when it comes to negotiating it's hard to say no to her. She is completely on your side and will find what your looking for.

Kathleen was very professional and found great tenants for me. The tenants are quite, keep the apartment in good condition and pay their rent on time. Kathleen found these tenants in such a timely manor that when the previous tenants moved out the new tenants moved right in. I didn't lose a months rent between them. Kathleen is very energetic and knows the business of real estate very well. I have complete trust in her and will never use another real estate person other than her.

It was a pleasure to do business with Kathleen . She sold my apartment quick. She was wonderful when i contacted her with questions. She made the transaction smoothly. I would recommend her to others. I will definitely use her again in the future.

Kathleen was extremely knowledgeable about the local area when helping us buy our first home. She took us to see a number of properties and she was a zealous advocate on our behalf. We felt very confident with Kathleen in our corner.

There's no better realtor than Kat Walsh. She is very professional and honest and works very hard to make her clients happy. She goes above and beyond and is just a wonderful person. Would highly recommend Kat Walsh to anyone.

Kat is amazing!!!! Always around to answer questions and always reliable. She has rented my Long Beach home twice already and both times I couldn't be happier.

Kat Walsh is an amazing person to work with. She knows everyone in Long Beach and treats her clients like they are her family. To say she went above and beyond for us is an understatement. In a business that can be filled with dishonest people, she is nothing but honest, lovely, funny, hard-working, and will be with you every step of the way during your home buying process to make it as painless as possible.

Kat was a delight to work with. Our search was far from your typical experience as we started off looking a while ago and due to circumstances along the way changed both gears and direction a few times. Kat never skipped a beat and hit every bump in the road with us professionally. Our experience was great and would recommend her to anyone looking for a house!

Kat helped my roommates and I find the perfect rental that met all of our needs. From or initial phone call to handing over the keys she was great. She made what can generally be a very long and drawn out process, quick and pleasant. If you are looking to rent in Long Beach I would highly recommend this talented, knowledgeable and extremely personable realtor!

Kat is exactly the person you want when looking to purchase a home. Her knowledge and expertise are second to none. Considering my wife and I tended to avoid the "Open House" weekend stampede, Kat was great at getting us the opportunity to view the houses that we were specifically interested in. Don't let her petite stature fool you. She is a person who doesn't take no for an answer and will make sure you get what you want.

I have had the best experience leasing with Kat Walsh and Johnny. Anytime my roommates and I needed anything it was always taken care of. They are friendly and accommodating. 10 out of 10 for Kat and Johnny.

Kat is incredible. She is always there when you need her, ever after she's gotten you into the most exclusive houses on the market. She has become more than a realtor but also a friend and someone to look up to. She is the best! Any person who has the opportunity to work with Kat is beyond lucky.

Kat helped my two roommates and I find a house to rent in Long Beach. Kat's honesty and expertise is unsurpassed. She was able to listen to all of the qualities we were looking for in a house and found the perfect fit for us. Kat goes above and beyond for her clients. Her charisma paired with her strong knowledge in the field make her the best real estate agent in the area. I would recommend her to anyone!

When I found out I were relocating to New York, I was excited and then terrified by real estate horror stories: bidding wars, post Sandy 2015 rents skyrocketing, and properties selling for way above asking price. Kat Walsh was my first step–so we looked into her background and agency ---found a wealth of positive reviews. Kat was on the case right away, she set up several viewings in the West End and knew which properties were coming on the market but not yet listed! She was always available to us, day and night and as a Long Beach local knows the market like the back of her hand. Kat met with me on follow-up trips and was always our escort while looking at properties. She was happy to check them out for me too and send all the info, and was so helpful with recommendations, paperwork, and navigating the hot Long Beach NY rental market. I was awarded a beautiful rental home in my price range and even in the exact neighborhood (the states streets) which I loved the best! I definitely could not have done this without Kat; she really took care of me. I have since recommended her to several business associates, a coworker, and friends. Thank you Kat.

Kat Walsh is an exceptional agent and I trust her completely. She is caring and goes the extra mile for each and every one of her clients. She works so hard for everyone and always has everyone's best interest at heart. I highly recommend Kat Walsh for buying, selling, renting or whatever needs you have!

This year I had the privilege of meeting Kat Walsh. While looking for a home to rent in Long Beach, New York, I found a listing I was interested in and contacted Kat for more information. After speaking with Kat for the first time, I knew I was in the right hands. Kat Walsh went above and beyond her professional responsibilities as a realtor, going the extra mile to make sure my needs were being met. Kat kept me informed every step of the way and treated me as if I were a life-long friend. I could not be happier with my experience using Kat Walsh as my realtor and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent a home.

We cannot say enough about Kat Walsh! Her professionalism combined with her personal concern for each client is something that you do not find everyday. Every phone call and email were responded to immediately. Her honesty when showing us each home made it feel like we were there with a family member rather than our agent. We never felt pressure from her to make a decision. We have recommended her to close friends and will continue to do so with confidence. You will not be disappointed!
