★★★★★
"My experience with Charles Kay as my Realtor has been the best experience and relationship I could ever ask for as a realtor and as a person. He made sure that I got everything I was looking for and more in the home. He will not let you settle for less and he is going to let you know what’s up, unlike typical realtors just trynna get a sale not having the buyers best interest at heart. He will make sure you do the least as possible during this long process and anything he can do to alleviate the stress, as home buying can be very stressful, he will not think twice about doing it and do just that. He has made me and my boyfriend’s dream come true and I'll forever be grateful for that. You want a guy that cares about what you need and want and will fight for you !? Charles is your guy!! Thank you again for everything that you did to help me buy and get in my first home!! I am very certain with the information you have taught and given me that I will be a successful first time home buyer !!" -Nicolee Quinones

"I rarely write reviews, but it was important that I share my experience with Steve Gunter Team. We decided to sell our home earlier this year. That is a situation full doubt and fear. It is very difficult to navigate, particularly for us as we have three young children. Charles Kay at Steve Gunter Team made the entire process as painless possible. He helped us understand what each step of process meant, and for the few things he wasn't able to predict, he guided us quickly to resolution. He was a pleasure to work with. It is very difficult to select a real estate agent. If you are on the fence, give Steve Gunter Team a call." -Allen Elks

We couldn't be happier with our decision and Steve's team!" -Shanae B

★★★★★
"HAVING SOMEONE DO EVERYTHING WITH QUALITY AT TOP NOTCH SPEED MEANS EVERYTHING! In Dec of 2018, I met with this young man in order to find some miraculous way to sell my home. My house, in dire need of repairs and TLC, was definitely going to be an as-is sell. I had accepted that I would probably not sell it, and if by chance it sold, it would yield no profit. Although he made me a firm promise, I thought that perhaps he’d do his very best but report sad news to me. Charles Kay listed my home and within a day we had an offer. He negotiated at lightning speed with such passion and belief that I’d see my Christmas holiday in a whole new way. It was a sweet dream but not one I could imagine as a reality.

On the seventh, my home went live on the market with a list of embarrassing repairs. On the 18th I closed with a higher purchase than it was even marketed for!!!!! I cried, I cried and I cried again. My house?!? The one I assumed would NEVER sell?? And thanks to Charles, it sold for more than I suggested. His savvy expertise saved me from accepting ‘just anything’. I paid off all my debts and the Christmas he promised me did indeed come to my children. Never underestimate this realtor! He’s a gentleman, a man of his word and wow – he’s fast! Saying goodbye to an old home with many memories wasn’t so tough with him by my side holding my CHECK!!!!!
