Testimonials
As soon as we met Kate Gladney, we knew we would enjoy working with her. When we then met Kathleen Randazzo, we knew this was the team that would help us find and buy the right home. They are skilled professionals. From the start, they have treated us as valued clients. They listened carefully to our needs and were immediately responsive and helpful with every concern and question we raised. Most important, their experience and expertise enabled us to make an appropriate, successful offer. We cannot say enough about how helpful they have been throughout the entire process, including after the sale was completed. While we were out of the state and then while we busy moving, Kathleen graciously volunteered to act as our agent in dealing with subcontractors for code work that needed to be done before the house could be occupied. Every contact we have had with these two lovely ladies has been a pleasure. They have our highest recommendation.

Kathleen Randazzo and Kate Gladney recently represented us in a purchase of a second home in Carmel. We have bought and sold many homes in the past and have never been as happy with a realtor. Kathleen and Kate were such a joy to work with. Since we live in Los Angeles they handled setting up most of the inspections as well as attending them for us day after day. They are extremely knowledgeable about the buying process and all the nuances associated with them and escrow as well. Their relationships with vendors for insurance, escrow, inspections, etc really helped this daunting task with us out of town. Even though escrow is closed The Team is still helping us with attending appointments and recommendations during the remodeling process.
Kathleen and Kate never pressured us into buying the property. Quite the contrary. Even though they had a tremendous amount of time invested they always looked after our best interest.
We consider Kathleen and Kate to be friends and would never think of using anyone else in the future!

We are writing to highly recommend Kate Gladney and Kathleen Randazzo as a real estate team. We found both Kate and Kathleen very pleasant to work with. The recent sale of our property in Monterey went off without any issues. We had previously moved out of the area and the team made sure to deal with all of the details and make the process as painless as possible. Kate and Kathleen exhibited a high level of professionalism, experience and dedication to the process. To reiterate we are nothing but extremely pleased with the service we received, and we would definitely use Gladney-Randazzo again.

Kate, Kathleen, and Marcia are one great team! From the attention-getting listing to the whirlwind of offers on a properly priced house, to the orderly steering to a short close, these ladies were tops. Our house needed major work before we could put it on the MLS. One of these three knew who to call to have the work done properly and quickly. And they supervised the work because we had left the Monterey Peninsula. The attractive staging of our house and improvements to our yard to give it drive up appeal were so enticing we almost wanted to keep the house. We could not have been in better hands.

It was very challenging to find a nice house in Monterey when my family recently moved here from Maryland. Because of a huge difference in house prices between these two cities, I knew that it was going to be difficult to find a house that my wife, daughter and myself would all like. In addition, we needed the house located in an excellent public school district because my daughter is now only in 5th grade. This criteria made my house search a very difficult task. But you did it through your dedicated and patient work! I am especially impressed by your knowledge of the current market conditions, your skill in advising the initial offer and negotiation of the counter-offers. Your attention to detail and strategy on the repair request saved not only my time but also my money. You also did an excellent job on a smooth settlement of the escrow.
At the end of the process, my family has the beautiful home we dreamed of. We will enjoy this house for many years to come.
I will definitely recommend you as an agent to any friends who would like to purchase a house on the Monterey Peninsula or anyone who would like to have my opinion on finding an excellent agent.
Sincerely,

Marcia, Kate & Kathleen,
The Monterey Peninsula holds a lot of wonderful family memories & experiences spanning nearly 35 years. I'm so happy the house sold quickly and easily. I think both my Mom and Dad would have been pleased. Probably surprised at the big changes that were made, but happy that there is an excited new owner.
I really enjoyed working with all three of you- you're a great team and I wish each of you considerable fortune under your new business umbrella.
Thanks so much,
Len
Dear Kate,
When we made the decision to list our home with your Team we didn't know we would also be making a new friend. It has been such a pleasure to work with you. Thank you for all you did to make this transaction in our lives a success.
Fondly,
Lydia
The team of Bowhay, Gladney, Randazzo has donea fantastic job in selling our Carmel home. I have been through almost forty real estate transactions, and this has been one of the very best.
Our house had been on the market for more than two years when we gave them the listing. They came in and cured a tortured floor plan with their team of carpenters, painters, electricians, and plumbers. The job was done on time and was really cost effective. They then supervised a staging team and our gardener to produce a house that sold very promptly. After all the work that was done, we raised the price by almost one hundred thousand dollars. The closing price was near the listing price.
During the course of the sale we had water and other problems that could have derailed the sale. They kept a close eye on the house and prevented a few minor disasters. Through the whole process they worked with all the other contractors as a motivated, effective team. They helped get the place cleaned up, and even sold much of the furniture that we did not need.
This is a great team. I highly recommend them.
Best regards,
Mike Mokelke
What a pleasure having these 3 professional women sell our home in Quail. Their creative marketing and negotiation skills were outstanding. They found the perfect buyers and we got the price we wanted. We would highly recommend this team.

We are so excited! We have nothing but good to say about you “girls”- the sale of our Outlook home and how much we love our River Place home- we could not be happier.

My wife and I have been casually looking for a house in Carmel for about 7 or so years. Marcia Bowhay has been patiently showing us places all along. This year when we finally got serious, the first house she showed us fit all our criteria and we ended up with our dream coming true! It was a complicated deal involving a reverse 1031 exchange & multiple offers. Marcia and her team Bowhay, Gladney, & Randazzo were up to the challenge! Everything kept moving on time & on schedule with a calm effectiveness! They made it fun and they made us happy!!! It seemed to be their main concern! Thanks to their team we have our Carmel cottage in a perfect location named…
Happy-Go-Lucky!!!
Sincerely,
Tim & Suzy Lee
Dear Marcia, Kate, and Kathleen:
(I was going to add “but not necessarily in that order,” but thought better of it…) You are a testament to team effort! At any rate, deep appreciation for all your help, care, cost, concern, and ultimate success in selling my house! Topping it all off, in addition to the money, the beautiful book, complete with quotes, took my breath away.
I still can’t believe all the energy that went into the physical clean up and clear out! Miracle women, all!
