(2nd Home-2020) The Sold By Starkey Team was so helpful when it came to selling our first home and buying our next home. The Sold By Starkey Team helped us buy our first home and it was such a great experience that it was a no brainer to call Kevin and The Sold By Starkey Team when we were thinking about making our next move. As Kevin began showing us houses on the market, Amanda was helping us get the house ready for market, she even staged it for us! Timing was tricky but that didnt stop Kevin and The Sold By Starkey Team from getting it done. We were looking at several different cities and

Jennifer Woodward came to us as a recommendation through friends when we were looking for our first house in 2015. We've kept in touch since then, and when we began our search for our next house, we knew exactly who we could turn to.
Jennifer listened attentively to our desires, took us to look at a few homes we thought would fit our needs, and quickly helped us narrow our search to the area and neighborhoods we ended up purchasing in. Once we had decided, she was a sure hand in making sure the offer we made the first day the property was on the market was a successful one. It was great to know

Kevin and Amanda and their team were amazing to work with throughout the entire buying and selling process. During unprecedented times with COVID-19 they kept safety a top priority and were extremely thorough with making sure all precautions were being met. Even during this time, we were able to sell our house in a week and they made the buying process a breeze. Their professionalism and knowledge of the industry is top notch, and they are extremely down to earth and easy to communicate with. We could not recommend the Starkey team more highly!!!

The entire Sold by Starkey team was amazing to work with. We started our journey of home buying while still in another state. Thanks to Kevins patience and keen eye, we were able to find the best fit for our family. We were so happy with their team that we chose them to help two more family members relocate. And when the time comes to move again I know who we will be calling!
