WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
Working with Dara could not have been a better experience. She was always on top of everything that needed attention. She was always right at hand when we had questions and she took care of a lot of the minor complications that inevitably arise before we even knew they were there. She walked us through everything and made the whole process go much more smoothly.
We can't say enough great things about our home purchase experience! Dara Kiely was amazing and went above and beyond to help us find our perfect home. Throughout several prospective properties and offers, Dara was professional, communicative, informative and always available. We will absolutely call Dara for future real estate needs and recommend her to any friends or family needing assistance buying or selling property!
She was awesome! We have worked with her for previous transactions and she is highly recommended. She was highly communicative through the whole process and was on top of things throughout. Dara goes above and beyond for all her clients and I am grateful to have such a good realtor.
Dara was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home. We connected with Dara and began looking for homes in western NC. We told Dara about our priorities when considering potential homes and she kept us informed of new listings as they became available. The level of communication and willingness to go above and beyond exceeded our expectations. We finally found our forever home several months into the process and Dara was instrumental in getting our offer accepted. Dara provided plenty of assistance during the "Due Diligence" period as she attended inspections when we were not available. Her willingness to assist us in every aspect of the process was more relatable to the actions of a family member than a real estate agent. Dara was exceptional during the entire process and her professionalism and knowledge made the home buying process as stress free as possible.
Dara was a pleasure to work with during the sale of our house and the purchase of another house in our area. She's professional and very knowledgeable. She is responsive and was always there to help with our needs throughout the process. She often went above and beyond, which was much appreciated. I would recommend Dara to anyone looking to buy or sell their house.
Dara is the best realtor we could have matched with! She has been with us on our journey step for step. She continuously showed great knowledge and professionalism. Our family will forever be grateful to have had her help with the home buying process.
Simply put, Dara Kiely is the real estate agent you want. She went out of her way to provide patient and consistent support to my wife and I throughout every step of our home-buying process. There was never a moment when she was not available to provide friendly, professional, and detail-oriented support--and yet, she never pushed or pressured us to do anything we didn't want to. In every single aspect of our home-buying journey, Dara went the extra mile to ensure that we felt empowered to make the decisions that were right for us. Thanks to her, we now have the home of our dreams! I would recommend Dara to absolutely anyone looking for a home in Western NC. Having worked worked with a number of other agencies over the years, I will be sticking with her team at Looking Glass realty from now on. I couldn't say enough good things about her.
My husband and I met Dara through Zillow. We found a home in Hendersonville online that we were anxious to see and requested a showing. Dara contacted us soon after and we were able to see the home that afternoon. After multiple offers, ours was accepted. Dara was wonderful to work with. She helped us navigate through the entire process, kept us updated on everything going on and kept us on our timeline. She was always accessible and returned calls/texts quickly. Very knowledgeable, she guided us through the buying process with ease. Would recommend 100%! Thank you, Dara!
Dara was a great asset for us while purchasing our first home. Without her knowledge and expertise we probably wouldn't have been able to even get an offer accepted on the home we purchased her recommendation of providing a cover letter with the offer was crucial. She was with us every step of the way and even when we had long closed on the house, there was a payperwork/payment issue at the title company, that she went above and beyond to correct. We would recommend her to everyone!
Bought a Single Family home in 2021 in Hendersonville, NC.
Dara was extremely helpful with us finding the perfect home for us. She was always available to answer any questions about our house or the area. She was also very knowledgeable about not only the town where we purchased our home but all of the surrounding towns as well. She is by far the most accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable realtor we have ever worked with.
