Testimonials
"Kim is trustworthy and very knowledgeable of the Shaver Lake area. We had a great experience working with her and would highly recommend."
-Sra Family, Client
""What a wonderful Experience! Kimberly was great to work with and was constantly communicating with us and our lender throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend if you are considering purchasing or selling a home. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Kimberly!""
-Brian and Julie McCullar, Client
"When our families began to entertain the idea of selling our family cabin we were looking for a realtor who we could trust and who knew the area of Shaver Lake. Kim fit both of those criteria, not only is she knowledgeable of the area but she came to be a trusted member of our team as we began the process of marketing and selling our cabin. Then came the Creek Fire. Although displaced by the fire Kim continued to monitor the area for damage and kept us updated as to how our cabin was fairing. Finally, after being allowed back in to Shaver, Kim made sure that we knew our cabin was still standing and that an offer had been made. Within a short period of time after the fire was contained, with her expertise, our families cabin was sold and for more than the asking price. We could not be more pleased with Kim's guidance and skill as a realtor. She made the process of selling our family retreat an easy and painless process. She also came highly recommended."
-Dr. Richard Jordan EdD., Client
"We went to Kim Hogue when we were new to buying in Shaver several years ago, she is the reason we fell in love with Shaver. We were looking for something for a family partnership. We have dealt with many realtors before and were rarely impressed. Kim was so honest about things that it actually surprised us. She definitely was looking out for us. She is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient and incredibly generous with her time (including mornings, evenings and weekends over the course of many months). She answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process. Buying and selling can be challenging in this market working with Kim actually made it much more painless. We have bought and sold several properties with her now and highly recommend her. She goes so far above and beyond the call of duty, is extremely knowledgeable about the "numbers" in the market and keeps herself educated on every level - she knows her market. "
