Kim was an incredible realtor with vast knowledge of the market. She was dependable, truthful, and a joy to work with. We changed our search criteria many times and she never got frustrated or impatient. She also went above and beyond by looking at countless houses for me after business hours! My favorite trait about Kim was her honesty, she would not push towards a home if it was not the right fit. Multiple times when I was ready to make an offer on something, she would tell me I could do better for the price range. Couldn't recommend Kim enough to anyone looking to buy a home!

Kim and her team did an amazing job helping me find and then negotiate the way to purchasing my new home. They were always responsive and quick to offer information on everything associated with my purchase and move. This was my first time buying a home on my own and their knowledge was invaluable. They made the process a lot more worry free by helping me every step of the way. Thanks Kim!

No doubt Kim is a stellar realtor to work with. I began the journey late Aug '22 and was a FTHB. I did homebuying research beforehand, but she was still very informative about many things. She’s highly professional, understanding, great communication and has very strong contacts/relationships. Her assistant Catherine was also a star and did a fantastic job with my documents and scheduling. I can’t express how grateful I am for Kim to represent me with my successful home purchase.

We're a repeat customer - I think that says it all; Kim is professional, knowledgeable, really an expert that goes the extra mile for her clients. She is simply outstanding at her job! She has helped our family find our first TH and now our starter SFH. We wouldn't hesitate to reach out to her again in the future.

Kim is an amazing real estate agent that exudes professionalism and expertise around every corner. She basically did all the right steps that are expected from a professional real estate agent. I would highly recommend Kim as a real estate agent and would not hesitate to work with her again.

Kim was an absolute pleasure to work with! Very quickly she found a property that had everything I wanted then helped me move quickly to purchase it. She knows the area and answered every question I had as we went to closing. I would recommend her to anyone!

I cannot thank Kim Nowalk enough for her assistance in finding me the perfect rental home and securing a reasonable lease in an extremely competitive market. For ten weeks, Kim patiently showed (and re-showed) me homes, offering expert advice on the pros and cons of each property. The day my dream rental hit the market, Kim and her team went to bat for me, guiding me through the application process and securing an interview with the landlord. After I was accepted from a pool of other first-day applicants, Kim carefully reviewed the lease, requesting several amendments. During the walk-through for the keys, she closely inspected the home, pointing out issues to the landlord. Finally, Kim advised me on the need to purchase renters insurance (a good reminder, since I had been a homeowner for 25-years and renting was new to me), provided me with utility contact information, and followed up a week after my move to assure all was in order. Without Kim, I still would be stressed and searching for a home, but, because of her, I am putting the finishing decorative touches on an adorable rental I love. Kim and her team simply are the best!

Kim has helped us buy our first home. She is very knowledgeable about the current market trends. Being a first time homebuyer she has educated us about each step. She and her entire team was responsive and available throughout the process.we are happy with our purchase and highly recommend to avail her service.

Edited March 2022: Shout out to Kim for being there for us even after it's been 3 months of purchasing our home. Being a first time homebuyer we reach out to her to get her inputs with any issues related to our home. And she goes above and beyond her realtor responsibilities to provide valuable inputs to help resolve our issues. Highly recommend her.

Kim sold my historic home that I owned for 20 years. The process had several obstacles along the way. Kim managed them all with grace and a smile. She had a referral for everyone needed to complete the necessary work with speed, skill, and at reasonable prices. Kim is professional, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and simply an enjoyable person to navigate what could be a stressful process. Kim and her wonderful assistant, Catherine, are simply incredible. I'm indebted to them for their exceptional care and service.

Kim was our agent for our first home purchase, and then for its sale and the purchase of our second home five years later. She is always responsive and professional, and gave us valuable advice throughout the process. She is a tough negotiator and a strong advocate for her clients. The sale of our first home in particular went very well, and we got a great offer because of her. Kim is also well connected, and referred contractors to us, as well as the stager for the first house. She's also just pleasant to work with. I definitely recommend her!

Kim has been part of this house buying journey with me and my husband for over 2 years now. she has been very patient and never made us feel forced and pushed to put an offer on a property we didn't feel comfortable with as that was very important to us. she has a very fun and outgoing personality and instantly makes you feel like you are friends. We were able to buy our dream home in this crazy market with her great help. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends or family. she was recommended to me by my cousin and I am so happy he did. She is very knowledgeable and experienced in the field.

What an amazing real estate agent! Kim helped me sell and buy my new home for the second time in this very hot 2021 market. Very professional, responsive, friendly, and great at negotiating on your behalf to get the best deal out of a buy or sell. I assure you'll come out of the process happy and stress-free.

Kim is fantastic! She has helped us buy one home and sell two homes. During the process of selling our last home, we ran into a ton of hiccups. Kim was always available and worked tirelessly to find creative solutions to every issue that popped up. It was so comforting to know that Kim was representing us. We would not hesitate to hire her again!

Kim was our agent for the purchase of our house in Howard County. We bought the property in November 2020. Since I first met Kim, I knew I wanted to work with her. She seemed knowledgeable and the type of agent that will look after your interest. And I was right! As soon as I contacted her, she put me in a list to receive information about properties on sale. While I was traveling, my husband and her visited about 4-5 potential properties and she always gave us her honest opinion about if we should put an offer and for how much. She was very flexible and worked with my husband in person and on the phone with me. Two of our offers didn't go through (someone else got the properties) but she always reminded me that the right house will come to us. At the end, we got what we consider our dream house! She walked us through the entire process step by step. Was always available for phone calls and clarifying questions as needed. As first-time home buyers, this process (and market) can be scary so we are glad she and her assistant Catherine (who is equally amazing!) were always available. Also, Kim negotiation skills are on point. Not only we got the property for a good price, at the end she also negotiated some extra help for the closing. I do believe we would have not gotten such a great deal without her on our side. Last, she is very connected. So working with her is like one shop stop for all the parts needed in this process. I would recommend anyone to work with Kim and her team!

We could not have worked with a better realtor to purchase our first home! Even in today's wild market, Kim listened to us from day one and held our best interest in mind. We viewed numerous homes together over the course of a month, and in the end found the perfect house for us. Kim and her assistant, Catherine, worked endless hours to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible, up until the last day. They coordinated everything between the seller, the lender, and the titling companies to make it happen on time!
I would recommend Kim and her team to anyone navigating the complex waters of negotiating and securing a new home. They know what they are doing, and do it well!

My wife and I hired Kim and Catherine to sell our home in Baltimore. We recently bought a house unexpectedly and needed to sell our current house quickly to avoid paying two mortgage. Kim and her team was very responsive and professional throughout the process. They answered any question I had, and they gave me piece of mind knowing that the sale of my house was in good hands. They negotiated with the buyers, found us reputable vendors for any work that needed to be completed, and even pulled up research of other local houses that sold. After only 3 days on the market, we had 3 offers! Did i forget to mention that they sold our house for $5,000 more then our asking price!? What an excellent team. If I ever need to buy or sell a home in the future, the only person I would call is Kim Nowalk!

My husband, Tim, and I contacted Kim to assist us in buying our forever home. We were coming from Baltimore county and were not that familiar with the Howard County area. Kim and her team were incredible to work with. Kim was incredibly knowledgeable about the Howard County area, she was honest about the areas that were good and not good, she knew we had a baby and was honest about the schools in various areas. Tim and I were nervous about making such a big move but Kim was so kind and understanding. She answered all of our questions and did not push us to buy when we were not ready, in fact, there was a time where we were just looking and not ready to buy but Kim showed us house after house knowing we might not buy right away. I would 100% recommend Kim to anyone interested in buying or selling their home!

Kim is an OUTSTANDING professional! She (and her assistant Catherine) provide very responsive, rapid and polished service. Her advice and expertise have helped us buy two homes and rent two others.

Kim was very helpful as we prepared our house for sale during the pandemic, anticipating questions, offering sound advice, referring us to people who could do work, and providing honest feedback on which projects should be highest priority. Once the house was listed she actually sold it twice within about a week. We had an offer within 3 or 4 days, which unfortunately fell through a few days later (no fault of Kim’s—the buyer had his hours cut due to COVID), so she re-activated the listing and we had 2 more above-listing price offers by the end of the week. Throughout it all, Kim’s expertise and calm manner helped manage our anxieties and make the entire experience as painless as possible. Even when the first deal fell through, we knew she was on top of things and believed her when she assured us we’d have another offer quickly. Afterwards, she even helped us find an agent where we’re moving out-of-state.

I have known Kim for 17 years. In that time she has helped me to buy and sell 4 homes.

Her experience is second to none, which has made her suggestions, ideas, and opinions right on target with each transaction.

For example, in my latest house, her creativity in staging the house resulted in a three-day/two-offer sale. This is the type of expertise that has enabled me to sell and then buy homes with the least amount of anxiety regardless of where the real estate market was at that moment.

Kim is also professional, friendly and punctual, all of which make for a very satisfying and rewarding experience.

I have and will in the future recommend Kim to buy and/ or sell their home.

Kim had everything under control from the moment we decided to sell the house. We ended up getting our asking price, and in record time no less. She handled every detail perfectly. on time, and with no glitches, which I'm sure is rare when selling a house for the first time.

In 2010 Kim was our real estate agent for the purchase of our single-family home in Waldorf, MD. Back then, as inexperienced first-time homebuyers, Kim helped us navigate the complex waters of negotiating and securing our first home. From day one it was extremely clear to us that she had only our best interest mind. Almost 10 years later, we contacted Kim once more when it was time to sell the same home she had helped us secure in 2010. As sellers, she had the same keen interest in securing the best deal for us and making the experience as painless as possible. In the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kim helped us list and sell our home in record time. The house sold within hours of being listed. Kim's expertise, industry knowledge, and negotiation skills are second-to-none. We highly recommend Kim if you're looking to buy or sell any property.

Kim Nowalk is a TERRIFIC agent, I highly recommend her! She has a very in-depth knowledge of the market and a complete understanding of all facets of buying and selling real estate. With Kim's expertise, earlier this year we bought a home with very specific needs for our multi-generational family (toddlers to seniors) and then last month quickly sold a townhome.  Both transactions went very professionally and smoothly. She was always available and went well beyond our expectations.  She and her team were very helpful in guiding us through the entire process and explaining the ins and outs of each transaction.  If you are looking to buy or sell real estate... Kim Nowalk is your best choice.  I strongly recommend contacting her for all your real estate needs.

My wife and I had a great experience with Kim and Catherine. We had a certain amount of money we hoped to get from the sale of our house, and by following Kim's advice we received multiple offers and finally accepted one which was over our asking price. When the inspection found items that needed to be repaired, Kim's recommended contractors helped us to get the work done quickly and at minimal cost. We also got a great deal on our dream house and had a contract accepted by the seller before it was even listed on the market. Working with Kim and Catherine was a great experience for us, and we would recommend them in a heartbeat.

Sold a home in 2014 in Annetta Gardens, Columbia, MD 21045. Without a doubt, we highly recommend Kim Nowalk. We were introduced to Kim when searching for our first house in Columbia, MD. We were new to Columbia and found her depth of knowledge of the city and her profession to be invaluable! Throughout our experience working with Kim, she was always reliable, professional, and thorough, making sure nothing was missed. We later relied on her to sell that house, knowing she could move it fast. She was direct in telling us what the house would need to sell, and she produced some downright amazing marketing materials. We knew that we had the best representation and couldn't have asked for more. Her perpetual positive attitude is contagious, and although we don’t live in Columbia anymore, Kim still keeps in touch and reminds us that we can always run things by her if we have questions. Trust Kim, you’ll be in good hands!

Bought a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $675K in Ellicott City, MD. I selected Kim Nowalk as our realtor from reading reviews on this website, and after going through the process of purchasing a home with her, I can say that the positive reviews are accurate. I was very pleased with our experience with her. Kim is professional, and offered the service we needed. We came from out of state, and wanted focused attention to find the right house for our family as quickly as possible. Kim made us feel like a priority. We had an entourage of 3 children, and she was always warm to them, and patient about diaper changes, bathroom stops, etc. She even fed our baby, rocked the infant carrier to keep our daughter asleep, and held her at closing while we signed documents! That wasn't a criteria I had in mind when I selected a realtor, but it was an appreciated bonus. Kim is a very likeable person, and we enjoyed our time with her. We've worked with other realtors, and Kim outshined the others with how thorough she was. She naturally anticipated the next step, and she was always aware of deadlines and details that were important throughout the entire process. Kim was also very responsive by phone, email, or text. I always felt like I could communicate with her when I needed to. Moving and buying a house can be stressful, but Kim took a lot of stress out of the equation. We have lived in our new house for about a month, and have been happy with our purchase.

Bought a Townhouse home in 2015 for approximately $350K in Elkridge, MD. Kim is a great realtor. She is extremely knowledgable about Howard County and has a sene about what areas would be a good fit for you to look at based on what type of home and lifestyle you are looking for. Kim does not try to push a home on you to get the sale but would rather spend more time looking for the perfect place for you to live and focuses on making you happy. She is very responsive to questions and answers them quickly. She was also very quick to determine if homes are under, over or correctly priced for the amenities, condition and area it is in. This was the first time I bought a home and could not have been happier with the experience. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a new home.

Bought a home in 2014 in Mooresfield, Fulton, MD 20759. Kim just helped us land our forever home (+500k, SW Howard County) and we couldn't be more pleased to have worked with her. Our purchase was tricky at times (due to things out of her control) but Kim remained dedicated and diligent in the pursuit of this house. She is is professional, personal, helpful, thoughtful, dedicated, prompt, tactful, smart ...the list of positives goes on and on. While I was continuously impressed throughout the time we worked with Kim, this one situation stands out: Late one night I asked Kim if we could see the prospective house and ask some contractors for their opinions on it as the house needed some updates. Standard operating procedure would be to reply within 24 hours acknowledging the email. Well, not even 12 hours went by and Kim had replied, set up a time to go to the house and lined up different contractors to look at the house; all before some folks had probably gotten out of bed that morning! Her experience shines through in everything she (and her team) does. I would recommend Kim to anyone looking to buy a house in Howard County (and for that matter I imagine she is just as successful at selling homes, as well, although that wasn't my family's experience with her). She was like part of the family while we were working with her. I am glad that we can look back on the purchase of my family's forever home and know we had the best partner, trusted advisor and new friend on our side to do so.
