Anyway just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate you! Elyse Campbell Woodruff 4/16/2010 Our home in Planter's Walk had been on the market for months with few showings. The listing expired and we decided to switch agents in hopes of sparking some new interest. A friend & former neighbor referred us to Petra Thomas as she had recently sold his home under similar circumstances. My husband called Petra & the next day she was at our home with paperwork & a "for sale" sign. She was extremely professional & personable. By the end of the week, we had shown our home 6 times with 2 offers on the table. Petra walked us through each offer carefully & helped us choose the offer that best suited us. All the while, she showed us houses all over Raleigh since a bigger home was what we were in search of for our growing family. Petra is an incredible real estate agent as well as a life-long friend & now backyard neighbor. Thank you, Petra! Jason & Jill Williams "Petra is a very knowledgeable real estate professional. She helped my husband and I purchase our first home. Not only did she provide great service, but she was able to recommend other professionals (mortgage, home inspectors, attorneys) that also provided us with excellent and trustworthy service. She has also kept in touch with us since we purchased our home and keeps us abreast of the current housing market in our area. She is always working hard to market her listings, as well. I highly recommend Petra and plan on using her services again in the future." September 4, 2008 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity - Amanda Josey, Ph.D. "I have had the pleasure of working with Petra for over 5 years. During that time I have seen her show dedication to each of her customers to ensure that their families needs are met when purchasing a home. She is with out a doubt an outstanding agent and a true expert in her field!" August 27, 2008 - Chris Earnhardt, Senior Mortgage Banker, Alera Financial The thought of selling my town home and looking for a new home at the same time was overwhelming. The housing market was in a slump across the country and that made me nervous. When I finally decided to start the process, I dreaded the task of finding a reputable Realtor. I needed someone that cared about what my needs were. That person for me was Petra Thomas. Petra was referred to me by my brother who raved about her performance when she assisted him in purchasing his home. I knew from our first meeting that I made the right choice in selecting her. She clearly explained the process every step of the way. Petra was always professional, she kept her appointments on time & most importantly everything was discussed with me & explained to me before a final decision was made. While looking for my new home she kept me on task to make sure that I was getting what I needed. She never encouraged me to settle for something that I was not happy with. Petra and her assistant Elaine were extremely helpful throughout the process. I will definitely use her services again and I feel confident in referring her to anyone. Thanks again Petra! Carla Menzie, Raleigh We are the Wehrles and we wanted to sell our house. We tried with no success and after seven months we gave up and took our house off the market. Then we met Petra during the Parade of Homes. She was a tremendous help from the useful suggestions she gave us on how to get our house ready to put back on the market to the day we closed on our new house. If friendly, assertive and a go-getter is the type of real estate agent you are looking for, Petra is the person for you. She is very knowledgeable in every aspect of real estate and is very honest and trustworthy. Her awesome web site is one of the many ways that she marketed our home. With her expertise we sold our home in less than 60 days. We had a dream and with Petra on our team that dream came true. We are now living in our dream home. We highly recommend Petra Thomas to anyone who is looking to sell or buy real estate. Anita & Mike Wehrle, Knightdale Petra Thomas sold our house and got us out of a major bind. To make long story short, our home had been on the market with another Realtor for over a year before going under contract for substantially less than asking price. The buyer was not able to close and we had to put the house back on the market. Petra was referred to us by a neighbor who also had difficulty getting their home sold until they listed with Petra. Petra walked through our home and advised us of exactly what we needed to do to sell it quickly. She even provided us contact information for painters and contractors who could make necessary repairs. Everything went seamlessly. Our home went on the market and two months later sold for close to asking price which was considerably more than the contract price from the first deal. Our positive experience with Petra has really opened our eyes to how important it is to get the right Realtor when selling your home. Petra is the right Realtor! Debbie and Mark Maxwell, Knightdale |
