Sara Yager exhibits sales and marketing skills that set her apart in a crowded real estate market.. Our relationship with her started when she followed up after meeting us briefly at an open house she was hosting. She went out of her way to explore why we were looking for a new home, discovered we lived in the same community and asked very professionally if she could work on our behalf. We initially told her we were going to interview multiple agents on the sale of our home in Terrace Park. She dove into searching the market online, through her network and even in some cases, exploring off market homes. We ultimately chose her to present us both on the purchase of our new home and the sale of our existing home. On the buy side she leaned into establishing relationships with listing agents, finding out what motivating factors were for sellers and aligning our offers for optimized success. The market was very competitive, we came in second on a couple of homes and Sara continued to keep us in the market even if we felt like letting up at times. Ultimately, we found a home in the Township we were targeting that fit our criteria. With her coaching and relationship building, we were able to get under contract on a home that appraised 10% above our contracted price!. For the sale of our existing home, Sara put together a comprehensive plan to take our home to market. We tested our home as a pocket listing and received two offers 5-10% over our asking price. While this was exciting and tempting, she counseled us to do a full marketing of our home inclusive of a week plus long "Coming Soon", professional photography of our home, networking with other active agents in the Terrace Park market and then pushed beyond the typical Terrace Park buyer pool to a broader approach across the East side of Cincinnati for buyers looking for homes over $1 million. Our home was under contract within a day and we accepted an offer 20% above the asking price. The Real Estate market today requires an agent who is willing to earn your business and drive value. On both the buy and sell side of our transactions, Sara did just that. She is passionate about serving her customers and is driven, gritty, and persistent. In deal structuring, she is strategic and comprehensive. You won't regret working with Sara, she delivers value. Tim and Laura Klenke

Working with Sara was such an amazing experience. Sara was so genuine and never made us feel pressured throughout the home buying process. When making such a big decision, you want someone who will take the time to be thorough and listen to your needs. You can tell it is Sara's passion to help others find their dream home. She understands the weight of this decision and helps guide you throughout the entire time. She was so attentive to our needs and wants when searching for our first home. When working with Sara, you can expect professionalism, care, personability, and knowledge. She treats your home buying experience as if it were her own, highlighting important need-to-knows while ensuring it is your own journey she is there to support. Since we are not Cincinnati Natives, we appreciated her insight on location and home value. Sara consistently followed up with us, making sure we could quickly see a house that just popped up. Although every interaction with Sara has been exceptional, the first time we met her stands out to us. When we first met Sara at a coffee shop to chat, we expected it to feel a little more in and out. Sara spent the first half hour just truly getting to know us. She spoke to us right off the bat as friends and we felt as though she had our best interest at heart, which was very important to us as first time home buyers. The first day we met, she had already given us 1 hour plus at a coffee shop, and right then and there took us to tour 2 homes we wanted to see. We were so grateful for the time she took to make sure we were heard and got to see the homes we wanted. One of the things that stood out to us most about working with Sara was her initiative and "action-taker" mentality. She found us an AMAZING off-market house all through her connections and proactiveness, which ultimately became our home. Sara did not wait around for us to tell her if we found a house, and we found this to be one of the best parts of working with Sara. Buying a home can already be stressful, but Sara did everything she could to ease the burden. She laid out clear next steps, followed up with others on our behalf, and made sure we had a consistent flow of new listings to see. If we sent a home we liked, she made herself available that same day to tour it for us. We were so pleasantly surprised by how quickly and thoroughly Sara got things done. Not only is Sara extremely knowledgeable, but she goes out of her way to get to know you personally. Her attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and kindness will make it a very enjoyable process. She made our first home buying experience so special and memorable, consistently checking in on us and working to build a friendship with us. We even said we will miss getting to text and check-in with Sara because she treated us as friends! I would say it is very rare to find someone so personable, yet knowledgeable. She pointed out things we wouldn't even think to ask or notice, and truly had our best interest. Sara will make you feel as though your home and family are the most important priority! She treats her clients as friends, and it shows in her genuine care and time dedicated to your home search. Buying our first home with Sara was honestly easier than renting some of our apartments! We are so grateful Sara was our agent and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking to list or buy a home. If you need someone in your corner to get it done - Sara is the best! You will not be disappointed with Sara - she will do AMAZING work, go the extra mile with you, and is a great person to get to know!

I initially met Sara at the gym where we started casually talking, and she gave me a ton of helpful information for people early in the home search process. I felt super comfortable around her and didn’t have to pretend about anything. Sara gave very personalized recommendations for lenders/brokers that were spot-on. She also helped us navigate initially disparate desires for our first home - my husband and I are two people who think very differently, and we initially didn’t know how to bridge that gap. Sara always responded incredibly quickly and would be ready at a moment’s notice to show us a home. She made such an effort to truly get to know our personalities and quickly learned how to support us through the ups and downs of the house search. She’s so sweet and humble and goes above and beyond for her clients, getting everything done ASAP and always putting in the extra work, all while giving you the honesty you need to make informed decisions. Working with her never felt like a sales pitch. There was never any pressure, but she would also make sure we knew the necessary timing if we wanted to pursue making an offer. It was a pleasure to work with her as a client and to also have found a lasting friend!

My wife met Sara through the gym they attend. After Sara passed the vibe check, my wife expressed our interest in retaining her service in our upcoming search for a home. Sara's honesty and transparency stand out. I entered the house hunting process very cautiously and with few expectations. Sara very quickly brought us up to speed on what the process entailed, so I never felt that we were flying blind. Sara is a strong communicator. She responded to all of our queries promptly and comprehensively. She did an excellent job of coordinating with other realtors and vendors, getting us the information and clarity we needed. Sara has a versatile approach. Our search varied in its velocity, but there was no pace, or change in pace, that resulted in any disruptions in her availability or commitment to helping us reach our goal. Working with Sara gave us confidence and certainty in our search for our home. We could not be happier with Sara's stewardship or the end result.
