“If anyone is in the market for a home in Baton Rouge or the Lafayette area, Helene is definitely your best bet! She has been so awesome with helping us in several different cities because we were so undecided about where we wanted to be! How lucky were we to have stumbled upon her website (which is amazing, by the way)!! She seriously goes above and beyond!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 star worthy!!!”
“I can’t thank you enough Helene Kurtz!!!!”
“Just a short note to indicate how much we appreciate your very professional assistance during our recent search for a home in Baton Rouge. Your efforts went well beyond our expectations. Over the years Sharon and I have purchased over 15 homes. We have never experienced a realtor that displayed so much professionalism and sought to meet our needs at the level we enjoyed with you.”
“We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in Baton Rouge. Thank you again for your hard work and professional approach to a very difficult process.”
“The process of selling my house was made much easier once Helene listed it. I originally tried to sell my house as a “for sale by owner” but in hindsight I could have saved money if I had listed it with Helene first because of the exposure she offered as well as her expertise in my neighborhood. Helene was a joy to work with. I especially appreciated her honesty and integrity. Instead of just telling me what a home seller may want to hear she was honest and candid about a marketing approach customized for my house. I believe that honesty came through in our relationship with the buyers and consequently I had 2 offers simultaneously. It was a good position to be in and I appreciate having Helene working with me through the process. I would highly recommend her as a listing agent to anyone who is thinking of listing their home.”
“Thank you for such a great experience finding a new home for our family. While there were bound to be ups and downs, not to mention our needless worrying, you handled it all amazingly – not to mention you protecting us from buying the wrong house and saving us $20,000 on the house we did choose. As the Business School recruits more and more faculty, I will be certain to strongly recommend that the incoming faculty call you.”
“Helene did a fantastic job for us. She was knowledgeable, well-informed, and always willing to go the extra mile … a true professional and a great person to work with!”
“Helene Kurtz was brought to my attention by a realtor from San Antonio, TX. He had never met her but was impressed with her Bio and wanted to ensure that I was well taken care of in my house search. I have received magnificent service from Helene and recommend her services to anyone who is looking for a home and wants to work with a very knowledgeable realtor but first and foremost a realtor who cares. I am in a home that I absolutely love and if it had not been for the services of this wonderful lady I would still be looking. As a veteran (retired) of the U.S. Army I feel that one of my countrymen/women has taken very good care of me. Helene, I salute you. God bless you and never lose that caring spirit. Thanks a million times over.”
“Helene brings a lot to the table and truly knows her trade. She is a skilled negotiator and an asset in the final days of a sale when things can easily become very stressful. I truly could not imagine selling our place without Helene on our team. My wife and I recommend her with the highest regard.”
“Selling our home was a terribly emotional time for our family. Choosing Helene Kurtz to help us sell our home was absolutely the first and best decision we made. While Helene’s access to market data enabled us to determine the right price for our home, it was her keen understanding of buyer motives that helped us properly present our home to prospective owners.”
“Moreover, her grace during the inspection and negotiation process resulted in both us and our buyer coming away from the signing table feeling happy and fairly treated. Through this process, we realized how much work goes into selling a house before the “For Sale” sign goes up in the yard. As you enter your own period of transition, I strongly recommend selecting Helene Kurtz as your realtor. It’ll be the best decision you make.”
“We are completely delighted with our experience with Helene. She got our house sold quickly for the price we asked, and got us into a new place that met all of our long list of “wants”. All this happened because of Helene’s professionalism, experience, and how hard she worked. We’ve recommended her to others and we’d work with her again without hesitation.”
“Helene starting working with Catherine and I about a year ago when we were referred to her through a colleague and dear friend of hers and ours. Helene has an incredible knowledge of the marketplace. She was able to tailor searches of Baton Rouge with houses that fit our needs spotting value and making great recommendations. The most impressive thing about Helene is that she was more than just a real estate professional, she took a personal interest in our specific needs and interests. Helene went above and beyond my expectations following up with inspectors, meeting experts and keeping everyone on course. At her fingertips she has a name and a number for painters, contractors, building suppliers, inspectors and professionals who give her clients good information. Through the negotiation process and the closing, she was money. Catherine and I fully and totally recommend Helene Kurtz!!”
