Kathleen is an exceptional realtor. She did an outstanding job selling my house while I was overseas! This is the second time I have worked with Kathleen due to her professionalism, strong work ethic and incredible negotiating skills.
Kathleen’s goal was to make the sale of my home as stress free as possible and she accomplished this and more.  She prepped my house for showings in a day, lined up contractors to refinish my floors, paint and deep clean my home. Her market knowledge helped me price my house correctly and attract buyers. She negotiated in good faith and always in my best interest.

I highly recommend Kathleen to any buyer or seller looking for the best in the business.

I worked with Kathleen to sale and purchase a home. Working with her was a great experience. Kathleen is excellent at communication. Her expertise as a real estate agent was invaluable during the selling and buying process. Kathleen always had our best interest in mind. She truly cares about her clients. I would not hesitate to work with Kathleen again and highly recommend her.

Working with Kathleen to buy our first home was an incredible experience. From the very beginning, she truly understood what my husband and I were looking for. Kathleen was super diligent, always going the extra mile to ensure every detail was covered. Her expertise and insights were invaluable, helping us navigate aspects of home buying that we had no prior knowledge of. We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent to guide us through this important milestone. Thank you, Kathleen, for making our dream of owning a home a reality!

I’ve worked with other realtors before, and not one has been as dedicated, knowledgeable, compassionate and helpful as Kathleen has been. She helped us buy our new home and sell our former one to a wonderful new owner. Not only is she a fabulous, warm person, but she’s also an absolute pro at what she does, a skilled negotiator and a fierce advocate. From answering tiny questions about the species of tree in a listing’s yard to ensuring every detail was exactly right during staging, Kathleen does it all. I knew she’d be a great realtor, but I had no idea how hands-on she’d be and what a true partner she would be to my husband and I. We are both so incredibly grateful we found her.

Kathleen was an exceptional realtor who guided us through the challenging process of selling our home and purchasing a new one within an impressive timeframe of just one month. Her responsiveness to all our questions and concerns was remarkable, ensuring that we felt supported every step of the way. Kathleen’s resourcefulness was particularly invaluable; she efficiently coordinated minor repairs and major projects, such as electric wiring, junk removal, and window cleaning, to ensure our home was in top condition for showing.

Her extensive knowledge of the market was evident as she helped us price our house perfectly, resulting in a quick sale at a great price. Moreover, Kathleen’s expertise shone through during the negotiation process for our new home. She demonstrated exceptional skill in securing a favorable price, making the transition to our new home smooth and stress-free. Kathleen’s dedication, professionalism, and thorough understanding of the real estate market make her a standout realtor. We are incredibly grateful for her hard work and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Kathleen did an excellent job for us.  Accurately assessed the pros and cons of the house, told us what we needed to do to get the house ready, oversaw the process for us (we live out of town on the east coast), and priced the house almost perfectly.  We got an offer within 2 days of it being on the market, above what it was listed for.  We are seeing several houses in the area that were overpriced that are languishing on the market and the price has been reduced (sometimes several times).  She is communicative and personable.  Highly highly recommended.

I wanted to send a quick note to share some feedback on working with Kathleen. We purchased a new home and sold our current house in wash park all within a 7 day timeframe. Kathleen took charge immediately and made the entire experience effortless. Nobody negotiates harder for their clients, period! She helped us not only sell for an amazing price but she made sure our buying experience was flawless as well. You feel completely taken care of and supported throughout a very stressful time and you know she is helping you make smart financial decisions! She is an amazing partner, friend and knows Denver real estate so well! We feel so lucky to have worked with her and love our new home!

Kathleen Staker is not only our realtor, but she has also become a trusted partner and close family friend. We have bought two homes and sold one home with Kathleen, and we are so impressed with her attention to detail as well as her commitment and sincerity throughout the process. We felt prioritized and cared for by Kathleen and her team throughout out our home buying and selling journey.  We are grateful to have had a realtor who truly gets to know her clients and is diligent about following through.  We would recommend Kathleen in a heartbeat! 

We had an amazing experience working with Kathleen Staker! She not only is responsive, but very quick with her replies. She always made sure that we never felt left waiting or uncertain during the process.

One of Kathleen’s standout qualities was pricing our house correctly. Thanks to her expertise, our property had a significant number of viewings, leading to multiple offers and a successful sale.

Throughout the entire house hunting process, Kathleen actively listened to our preferences, taking the time to truly understand what we were looking for in a new home. With her guidance and support, we found our dream home! She also made it possible for us to close on both houses simultaneously, allowing for a smooth and stress-free transition.

I cannot recommend Kathleen enough. Her friendly nature, responsiveness, and ability to deliver results makes her an invaluable asset in the real estate industry. If you’re looking for a professional who truly cares about her clients’ needs and goes above and beyond to exceed expectations, Kathleen is the realtor you need by your side.

Kathleen is an amazing realtor and friend! She treats all her clients like family. After selling and buying a few homes with Kathleen we have seen how dedicated and how hard she works to get the best possible deal and terms for her clients. We truly feel like through every transaction she puts her heart and soul into getting the best for her clients while ensuring they are 100% happy with the sale and/or purchase of their home. We are grateful for her expertise and dedication she brings to her real estate business. 

As our real-estate agent, Kathleen and the team surpassed all our expectations. The process to sell and buy a home at the same time felt daunting but Kathleen was so professional, flexible, hard working and optimistic that any worries we had vanished. We closed both homes flawlessly and not only did we find our dream home we found a great friend too! We couldn’t be happier with our new home and feel very grateful for Kathleen and the team who worked so hard to make it happen!As our real-estate agent, Kathleen and the team surpassed all our expectations.

Kathleen is the best of the best, not just in Colorado but in every state that we have lived in.  She has bought and sold three properties with us and each time it has been an absolute pleasure.  We are always 110% sure she will get the job done, and fast.  She answers all the difficult questions with knowledge and integrity – and provides resources such as staging, house cleaning, and contacts for various needs.  She truly listens and cares about her clients, every decision she makes will only benefit the sale of your home.  Her negotiation skills are top notch and I would not go anywhere else for the sale of our property.

With 4 homes purchased and one  sold in the last 3 years, our family wouldn’t go  anywhere else but to Kathleen Staker. Great market sense, lots of hustle and a really solid team behind her she gets it done! She operates with professionalism, integrity and is not hesitant to take on the projects and complications that always come with a real estate transaction. She is a bundle of energy and never says no to any request. One would be hard pressed to find a better agent in the Denver metro market!

Kathleen, you were amazing throughout this entire home buying process! Robert and I are so thankful that you represented us ! We will sing your praises and definitely recommend you as a realtor. Also, Julia was so helpful and professional. She was calm and cool even when having to interact with any hurdle. Your team made this the best experience possible! I hope to reach out to you for recommendations around the area as we settle in. We look forward to getting to know our new neighbors in and around the neighborhood!

We were not the first or second in my family to buy a home with Kathleen, but the third (no prior connections)! Kathleen was incredibly patient with us and worked just as hard on day 100 to find us a home than she did on day 1. She was knowledgeable about the local market, an expert negotiator at every step, understood inspection results and buyer vs. seller responsibilities, and went above and beyond to help with the sale of our out-of-market home by working with our relator remotely. We had very specific perimeters as to what we wanted in a house and Kathleen made sure that our priorities were met. We had total confidence in Kathleen throughout the process and it paid off!

Kathleen is excellent to work with.

Kathleen is a true professional who knows the real estate business and negotiation process
thoroughly. She referred us to top notch title, escrow and closing agents who collaborated
incredibly well with tight deadlines to make the sale of our mother’s home successful and
efficient.

There still is a call for a full-service agent in this market, and Kathleen is it. In fact, ESPECIALLY
in this market, you will need someone who will literally go the full distance and get your house
sold for the best possible price and terms. Kathleen felt like family as we all worked to get our
mother’s house prepared to list. From cleaning and staging to rallying support for garage sales,
appraisals and landscape clean up. Kathleen was on it and worked tirelessly to get us across
the finish line. I can’t recommend her enough!

The best decision we made was partnering with Kathleen Staker and Banyan Realty. We would not have our house if it wasn’t for her. From the moment we met, Kathleen listened to what we wanted and dreamed of in a home, and then she got work. This Colorado market is crazy, but she’s got the experience, and know-how to navigate it all. She’s the most professional and communicative realtor we’ve worked with and that gave us such peace of mind. Being in the industry as long as Kathleen she’s cultivated relationships and has connections with everyone, whether you need an inspection, electrician, or painter, Kathleen has the recommendation. We could ask her anything and knew we were going to get a straight answer. From the very beginning, we trusted her to guide us through and she delivered. I have never worked with a more committed professional. Kathleen advocated for us and fought for us and now we have our forever home – something I didn’t think would happen.

Wonderful experience at every step of the way working with Kathleen and Julia. They were spot on with pricing strategy, a huge help in staging the home, and helped us navigate the transaction with ease. Most importantly they got us results – completive offers and great outcome!
