We have been trying to sell our property for some time. We listed it twice before, with no success. Finally we listed it with Cathy Russell and it sold! She was very friendly and quite knowledgeable about the market. The entire staff was very prompt about communication. We had a great experience listing our house with Cathy Russell!

Two people recommended Cathy Russell to us, one was her client as a seller and the other was a real estate agent himself in the region years ago. We signed contract with Cathy without interviewing other agents. It proved that we made right decision. We got the first offer within ten days, signed the purchase contract in the third week. Kathy?s reputation and connection made the communications effective with buyer?s agent, inspectors, and closing agent. Her team offers handyman with reasonable price in small repairs. You can give her your expectations and trust her making decision for you. Or you can be involved in more details. Her team can work with your desire in a comfortable level. They communicate with you clearly but not bothersome. Less

The bottom line is Cathy got our house sold. She helped us in dealing with a buyer's agent who was less than professional, and she gave us honest input that helped us make decisions. If you want your house sold, follow her advice and trust her. She isn't great at communicating, but if you really need to talk with her (as when there's an offer that needs to be negotiated), she is right on top of things. I've bought and sold many times in my life (and had some pretty lousy agents), and Cathy was always a professional who used her years of experience to help get the deal done. Less

I asked Cathy to sell the house here in Lafayette because of her reputation and the team she has in place. I was notified continuously about showings, offers and questions. When I contacted them one of the 3, Angel Doss, Brian Russell or Cathy would promptly reply with a quick response. The entire experience went very smoothly and professionally. Thank you again Cathy and Team.

Overall a great experience with Cathy and her team. We purchased a home through Cathy and her team last week and her and her team were helpful through the whole process. They were able to get us the #s we needed and reach negotiations with the seller after the inspection process.

We had a great experience with the Cathy Russell real estate agency, both in buying our duplex and selling it seven years later. Living out-of-state from where the property was bought and sold she and her team provided us with invaluable advice and service that saw us through this complicated transaction. We would recommend her agency highly to anyone looking for a professional team that will provide you with a an excellent real estate experience!

I bought a condominium through Cathy when I moved from Ohio to West Lafayette in 2010. Cathy took a great deal of time with me to look at many properties over the course of 3-4 weekend trips. I was very happy with the place I found. After completing my Ph.D., I took a job out of state and sold the condo through Cathy in early 2013. Again, it was a good experience. Her team helped me with various logistical matters (e.g., cleaning, minor repairs) that would have been very inconvenient for me to take care of from a distance of 300 miles. She represented my interests well. In both transactions, she helped me to get a good price relative to market conditions. I recommend her highly. Less

Selling my house in the current market was one of the worst experiences I've ever had. But I have to give credit to Cathy Russell's team. They worked with me through all the challenges and in the end they pulled it off. Thanks!

We were in Lafayette, IN for only three days (a Saturday, Sunday and Monday). We had to purchase a home in that time. Cathy blocked off those days on her calendar and worked with us throughout the weekend. Before arriving, we sent her a list of what we were interested in and she had appointments set up before we arrived. The home we purchased wasn't going to be available before we needed to move to Lafayette so Cathy found us a rental that we could live in during that time.

Cathy is a pro. I've seen a lot of criticism that she's not always physically present, etc. The truth is that she's built an entire team to carry out her vision, and she gets results. You don't stay in real estate for as long as she has without doing right by your clients. Fact: She listed and sold my house in less than a week. Less than a week. And it sold for just a hair under list price. Actually, it sold for considerably more than a similar house across the street was listed for. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Cathy Russell Team. Less

I was referred to Cathy Russell by a friend and have had nothing but excellent service with Cathy and her team. I have now purchased several houses through Cathy. She knows the local market, is an excellent problem solver and her team stays on top of the transaction taking a proactive approach until the deal is closed. It seems to me that Cathy knows everyone in town (and has a good relationship with) from the other agents to the mortgage brokers to the title company personnel which certainly makes the transactions go that much smoother. Prior to meeting Cathy I have used many other real estate professionals in my life time and Cathy Russell and her team are truly head and shoulders above the rest. Less

I am a United States Marine and I am moving to the area. I had a very tight time line to be in town and a tight budget as well. My Fiance found Cathy online and started working with her about 3 weeks before we were going to be in town. Cathy's energetic attitude and persistance to find the right house for us made her an extreme pleasure to work with! I know exactly where I will go when the Marine Corps takes me else where and its time to sell the house. Recommended with the highest enthusiasm! Thanks Cathy!! J and L Less
