Bought and sold a single family home in 2022 in Pittsburgh, PA 15201.

Rachael and her team was wonderful! She was extremely patient with us during our search and we did not feel pressured to offer on any properties which were not right for us. She was amazing at selling our current home and we quickly received multiple offers. Good photography sells homes and her team produced amazing results. It's great to work with some one who is so available and professional during what can be a very stressful time. Would recommend to anyone in the area!

Rachel Schafer was very knowledgeable throughout the whole process. She responded right away with any questions we had and helped us understand the process as we went through it. She was very kind and professional at all times. Her whole team she works with were excellent and stepped in to help when the other team member wasn't able to which ensured a smooth process the whole way. She helped get an offer on our house in less than a week during the slower buying season. I would highly recommend Rachel for you realtor needs.

Bought and sold a home in 2021 for approximately $500K in Bairdford, PA 15044.

With Rachael Schafer’s knowledge and expertise, we were able to sell our home for over market value within several days. Rachael sold our last two homes with wonderful results. Her response time is great and she always makes time to get back to you regardless of the time of day. It was great to have an agent that we could rely on when we decided to move again. She also helped us find the home of our dreams and never gave up on us, even though the search was a long one! We would absolutely recommend Rachael Schafer and contact her again if needed. She is a super great agent and a wonderful person!

This is our second time working with Rachael. Rachael did an amazing job gauging the market and nailing our listing price. She took as much stress out of selling and buying a house simultaneously as she could and was always available and willing to answer any questions or listen to us air our concerns. She's incredibly down to earth, respectful, and cares about her clients and their interests. Would highly recommend!

Sold a Single Family home in 2019 in Clarington, PA.

Rachael is very professional and was an excellent realtor for us in our sale of our farm and the purchase of our new house. We highly recommend her! She brought a drone to our farm and took wonderful pictures to market our place. We had many showings! We had a lot of interested people and at least three qualified and potential buyers at the end of the process making offers. We are happy with the couple who made the final purchase.

Sold a Single Family home in 2019 for approximately $200K in Glenshaw, PA.

Provided excellent advice and support. Tremendous work ethic and put in whatever time was needed to accomplish the tasks at hand. Answered any and all of my questions. And I had a ton of questions because it has been years since I sold a house and things have changed dramatically. 95% of the time her responses to questions and issues were extremely fast. Very calm and reassuring under the rigors and stress of negotiations. Was very please to have Rachael on my side.

Bought and sold a single family home in 2019 for approximately $225K in Butler, PA 16001.

Rachael and her team are very interested in giving the home she herself would want for a personal friend or family member. She not only found the home (beating out my own efforts to search for one and the MLS finder) which alone makes her services worth it, but she was very responsive (super responsive and really helped in negotiations). She knew the tactical in/outs of the various pieces of the real estate purchasing transaction. The only concern was about her knowledge of the various townships, including commutes and traffic etc. and differences in cities as well as guidance on new build homes. OVERALL - bringing Racheael to the table really enables you as a buyer because she is very confident and skilled in her process/tactical abilities. Kind of akin to bringing the US army with you versus a group of militia men. Give her a shout and test my claims to responsiveness and knowledge of the process - you will be happy.

Rachael’s expertise in Hampton Township real estate was a tremendous asset in the quick sale of our house. She was willing to meet with the inspectors and other agents while we continued to work on settling in to our new house. Rachael was extremely responsive whether on text or phone calls. She offered a “staging” expert to recommend options to make the house more visually appealing. Closing was effortless. Rachael and her colleagues took care of everything. We will not use anyone else in purchasing or selling our homes in the future besides Rachael.

From the beginning, Rachael was very well prepared and organized to lead us through the process of selling our parent's home. She was patient with all of our questions, and took care of everything with the utmost attention to detail. She clearly demonstrated a deep knowledge of the buying/selling trends for the area where the home was situated, and it sold for just very slightly under the listing price. Would highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking to sell a home.

Rachael and her team were great to work with throughout the entire process. She was everything and more I expected in a realtor - professional, knowledgeable, prompt, dependable, hardworking and clearly had my best interests in mind.

I can't recommend her enough. She helped me list and sel my grandmas house within 2 weeks. She took all her own photos. She was kind. She was considerate. Whenever I had questions, she promptly responded. Didn't matter what time of the day it was. She went above and beyond for me. She even offered to let the dye test inspectors into the house so I wouldn't have to drive an hour to open the door. She made my hard times of losing a loved one into a flawless sale. I could go on and on. Trust me, you will not be disappointed with her.

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $150K in Glenshaw, PA.

Linking up with Rachael was a very happy coincidence for us. We called her because she was the selling agent for the first home that we fell in love with on Zillow. After meeting her and realizing that she could show us all of the homes that we were interested in, we decided to take her on as our agent. It was the best decision that we could have made. Not only was she very insightful about the homes and the market that we were buying into, Rachael always seemed to find a way to work into our busy schedule. She really went above and beyond the call of duty for us and because of her efforts, we were able to find our dream home in a matter of weeks! Best of all, Rachael is extremely kind, caring, and professional. We have no doubt that she is the real estate agent that will be a valuable addition to anyone's team!

Bought a home in 2016 in Hays Mill, PA 16046.

My wife and I were first time homebuyers that found Rachael through reviews on Zillow and approached her about helping us find a house. She was excellent at explaining the process, very active with facilitating the negotiations, offering negotiating tactics and extremely responsive to any questions we had. Even a month after closing she responded immediately regarding questions about the home warranty that had come with the house. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a solid negotiator and someone who easily explains issues the lay person may not understand.

Rachael is always very responsive and great to deal with, would absolutely recommend her! Her advice has been helpful while we are selling and buying a house. My wife and I first met Rachael 2+ years ago when just considering to sell. At that time the market was saturated and we were in no hurry. Now that the market is in a better place for us, she called us up and we listed our home. She arranged for a stager to come in and helped us make an offer on another home. Her advice has been educational and very much appreciated. Thanks!
