Erin was outstanding! She really knows the local market, having lived there her whole life. She was very helpful with pricing the property correctly, and then did a masterful job of marketing it, including a wonderful slide show set to music that she placed online. She was very responsive whenever we had a question, and really guided us through the whole process. Finally, she has a very positive energy that is great to work with and makes what can be a difficult process into kind of a fun adventure. Less

We contacted Erin a few months back in regards to being our Buyers Agent. This was an excellent choice. After discussing with Erin our wants and needs, she showed us quite a few houses, always working around our crazy schedule. Most of the showings were last minute or with little notice. We knew of Erin from the community, but had never met her. Working with her was like working with one of my friends, she knew the area very well. She is not just a "Yes Man"(or woman), she has opinions which we highly regarded. Erin is a master at her trade and we highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You will NOT be dissatisfied!! Less

Erin was brilliant in selling my mother?s house. She listened to our wishes and generated a market value for the home and gave us a realistic goal to reach. Erin is energetic, honest and she thinks outside the box to make everyone satisfied. I would definitely have Erin find a home or sell a home for us anytime.

My husband and I had the wonderfully opportunity to buy my childhood home...with this opportunity before us we needed to sell our current home. I contacted Erin and from there we off and running. While our home was for sale we were very busy with a major renovation project on my childhood home, it consumed just about every minute of our time. Having Erin in our corner de-stressed the whole process for us. She handled the house we were selling leaving us one less thing to worry about. She was always available anytime we had questions or concerns, and she never let us settle for an offer that wasn't fair or reasonable...she really does live by her motto...Old Fashion Customer Service...that was top notch!

Your home was so easy to sell because I think I loved it almost as much as you folks did! Showing the house was always a dream! I am just so glad we were able to find someone that appreciated all of your hard work and would appreciate all the property had to offer! Your home has a new family now that is enjoying every minute of every day there! You folks were great to work with and I hope if you decide to come back to R.I., I can help you find the perfect home for your next chapter!

Erin got in touch with us a soon as we made in inquiry about our home. It took us awhile to get up to Rhode Island, but as soon as we were ready so was Erin. Now we are so happy to be in our perfect home starting a new life. If you are ever looking for a home in Southern Rhode Island you can't ask for a better agent than Erin!

Erin helped me find and buy my perfect little cottage. Erin is very knowledgeable about the area and showed me homes in two different towns. She made looking at houses fun, even on a cold, rainy spring day. Erin's counsel even helped me decide on which house to buy! I know have my very own little piece of paradise. I highly recommend Erin for any real estate needs.

We sure did have a great time that cold rainy day!

You were a pleasure to work with Jen & if you need anything, feel free to ask! :)

I recently purchased a home in the South Kingstown area and I am so happy that Erin Diaz was referred to me as she made the whole process fun and easy! We quickly became comfortable with Erin and her team of professionals. Looking at properties with Erin was like shopping with your best friend. She gives you her frank opinion on the property, price and condition of the listing. Erin also listens to what you are asking for and helps guide you to homes that might be of interest. To me, this was the perfect balance and was exactly what I needed and was looking for in a real estate professional. I have used other relators in the area that tried to get me to make an offer on every piece of property which made it difficult to trust that they were looking out for my best interest. Erin is just the opposite in that she points out potential issues and/or benefits before you even get in the car. When it came to making an offer, I felt that Erin was part of my team of trusted advisors. I feel comfortable in saying that had another realtor been involved in the negotiations instead of Erin, the deal likely would have never been completed. I have a real estate license in another state so I have some experience in the market but I know Erin would be equally strong for a buyer or seller who is not as experienced. I would recommend Erin to my friends and family and feel that she will act in the best interest of all of her clients. All the best,
Doug & Angel Less

We walked into Beaches and Backroads Realty in the summer of 2011 and was immediately put at ease by Erin. We had been out of the real estate market for over 25 years and wanted to purchase a second home in Rhode Island. Erin worked closely with us, listened carefully to our wants and needs and found the perfect home for us in North Kingstown.
Her knowledge and understanding of the market, the mortgage application process, and the myriad of ups and downs associated with buying real estate was invaluable and her persistence paid off for us as we closed on our home in November 2011.
We would highly recommend Erin Diaz for her professionalism and knowledge to anyone who wants to purchase a home in Rhode Island. Less

Our experience with Erin was outstanding. Timing in this case was critical as the seller was in the process of refinancing to hold down costs while waiting for a stronger market. The deal had to be struck quickly. Erin not only negotiated an attractive deal but was able to put it together in only 3 weeks - start to finish. We highly recommend her services.

I cold called Erin looking for someone who would be on my side and help me find a HOME, not just a house. SHE DID EXACTLY THAT! She knew where to look, what to consider, similar homes in the area and price range. She was always ready to meet at another house, even if it was 30 minutes after seeing me at the last one she showed me. Even though I fell in love with the first house I saw, Erin made sure I saw the other houses, considered my options and slept on it...
Once the purchase process began things did not change. She was on my side through a difficult "back and forth" negotiation process. She supported my decisions and always gave good advice and insight into all aspects of what turned out to be a transaction with several speed bumps that she was able to get me past in order to close.
She was always available when I needed her and quick to respond to even the smallest of my worries.
Erin goes above and beyond for her clients... but as her client you will think you?re the only one she is working with.
Call her and see for yourself! Less

We met Erin for the first time at a home we found online. The listing agent was trying to convince us that the house could be fixed up. Erin was straight up and honest with us about the condition of the house. She was not interested in a sale--she was interested in finding the RIGHT home for our family. After this first meeting, she asked us to write a list of wants and needs. Within one week, she had found our perfect home! I could not believe that she found us a home below our budget and that met nearly every WANT plus all of our needs and in such a short amount of time! She walked us through the purchase process step by step. Purchasing a home usually comes with bumps in the road. When we hit a bump, she was quick to smooth it out and make everything work out. She made us feel like we were her most important clients, and she would do whatever it took to get us into our perfect house. We chose Erin because of the great reviews she had received. She truly lived up to those reviews and more! We are so grateful to have had her as our agent. There were a couple of "emergencies" along the way with our purchase, but she did whatever it took to get them resolved and make any problems work to our benefit. We did not know Erin before we chose her to be our agent, but now she is our friend. Less

When looking for a realtor in Rhode Island to help us find the perfect vacation/retirement home, we initially found Erin through a website listing. A very lucky event, as she proved to be an absolute gem helping us learn about the coastline and providing outstanding counsel on matching the key desires we had with the available properties in our range. Her dedication, commitment and friendship throughout the process could not have been better, and through her assistance and persistence, we have ended up with the home of our dreams.

Erin was a fantastic resource for us when we purchased our summer home in Charlestown RI. Erin brought a lot of value to the process: ?Erin had a great knowledge of the area which was great because while we spent a lot of time at the beach in the past - we didn?t have the knowledge of which neighborhoods were going to fit our requirements (we wanted to be close to a specific beach, but in a somewhat secluded location and preferred a water view). Not an easy order to fill! ?Erin listened to what we wanted ? she also carefully observed our reactions to the first few places we saw and helped us adjust our own requirements based on her observations ? she didn?t just act as an order taker, but more of an advisor. ?Erin found us exactly what we wanted ? she is well connected in the area and was on top of new listings which got us a look at a property that was new to the market. She was also flexible ? we had more than one scheduling problem and she made everything work around us. ?Erin was very knowledgeable of the pricing in the local housing market which helped us position an appropriate offer to get a quick acceptance. ?After we had the purchase agreement Erin helped us line up every inspection, lawyer and all other service providers we needed to complete the transaction. This was especially helpful since we were quite a distance away and had very busy work schedules. ?Even after the sale Erin helped us find the best people to mow the lawn, clean the house, etc ? that extra bit of attention really made the entire home buying process smooth and get us into our dream home without a lot of the normal hassles one would expect. I?d recommend Erin to anyone ? she brings an incredible amount of value to the process of buying a home and easily the best partner we have ever had while making a real estate purchase. Less

I had asked our agent to give us a quick idea on the value of our home. We are not planning on selling for another 4 years, but do want to make the appropriate improvements to increase the value. She had great ideas and came up with what both my husband and I felt was a fair value. 10 stars for Erin Diaz. She has also helped my son with real estate questions.
