Katie Payne

Fantastic experience: Working with Katie was such a great experience from start to finish. As a first time buyer she made sure I was fully informed and made the process seamless. They are genuinely a personable and knowledgeable agent; we would recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Fantastic experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Katie and the experience we had working with her! Buying a home is stressful enough, but buying a home in Kansas while living internationally in Italy and preparing for a military PCS with kids and what felt like a million pieces of luggage is a whole different level of stressful. Katie somehow made the entire home-buying process feel easy. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond for our family. She helped us search for the perfect home from thousands of miles away, completed virtual walkthroughs so we could truly see and understand each property, answered all of our questions, and guided us through every step of the buying process. We never felt like the distance put us at a disadvantage because Katie made sure we had everything we needed to make informed decisions. But what really stood out was that her help didn't stop once we bought the house. When we finally arrived in Kansas after an exhausting international move, she continued to go above and beyond to help our family transition into our new home. After a long PCS from another country, having someone willing to step in and make things just a little easier meant more to us than she probably realizes. She also had incredibly thoughtful resources waiting for us in our new home, including pamphlets and books about Kansas, Missouri, and the Leavenworth area. She even created a home binder for us to keep track of updates, maintenance, and important information, along with a directory of trusted professionals she recommends for things like HVAC maintenance and other home services. Those little details show just how much she genuinely cares about the families she works with—not just during the sale, but after the keys are handed over. This entire move has been exciting, exhausting, overwhelming, and a little crazy, but Katie was one of the biggest reasons getting into our new home felt so smooth and stress-free. She didn't just help us buy a house—she helped our family feel welcomed and supported as we started this new chapter in Kansas. If you are looking to buy or sell a home, I HIGHLY recommend Katie. She is knowledgeable, dependable, thoughtful, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. We are incredibly grateful that she was our realtor and cannot thank her enough for everything she did for our family! ❤️

Fantastic experience: Katie was amazing to work with! She met with us online to talk through what we were looking for and freed up her entire weekend when we flew in on a holiday weekend to look at homes. As the spouse of a former military service member, she understands military families and their unique situations. I would not hesitate to work with Katie again in the future!

Fantastic experience: Katie is a great real estate agent! She knows the KC area well and will take care of finding you the right home.

Fantastic experience: Katie was recommended by several other military spouses, and we are so glad they did. Selling a house is stressful, and doing it from out of state made it even more so.

Fantastic experience: Katie is extremely patient! She answered my gazillion questions (probably repeatedly) until I understood everything. I gave her a list of my wants/needs/preferences, and I even gave her my nonnegotiables and asked her not to let me settle (out of frustration or shopping exhaustion), and she didn't. As valuable as her knowledge and office are, the fact that she truly listens is priceless! I highly recommend you trust her and her unfailing, upbeat personality!

Fantastic experience: Katie is a blessing in our lives. We had 45 days to find and close on a home. And, I was not going to be in town for most of that time so she would tour the home for us-being our eyes and nose. She listened intently to our needs and quickly learned what would be pleasing to us. She was professional and responsive and protected our interest at the time of negotiating the offer. The home we have now is perfect. Thank you Katie.

Katie kept in touch over the next few months with sending potential listings that all met our wants, when finally we settled on the beautiful home we just closed on. Throughout the process of placing an offer, to coordinating with the sellers on when to see the home in person, to helping us find a lender in the area, Katie has been by our sides every step of the way.
