Catherine Cripe – Bennion Deville Homes

Catherine is a WONDERFUL relator and person. She assisted our family in the sale of our home in the Springs Country Club, Rancho Mirage and the purchase of our new family home in Morningside Country Club. Catherine is extremely knowledgeable and very professional. Her background as an attorney and her experience in interior design was very helpful as we negotiated both deals and worked with her on the staging of the home we sold. She makes the processes seamless and works very hard for her clients. Having bought and sold multiple homes in my day, Catherine stands out as one of the best and surely the most dedicated, caring and professional! My family and I highly recommend Catherine for any transaction in the areas she serves.

Catherine is excellent at what she does. Her unique skill set benefits all her clients and we should know since she helped us sell, buy, and sell three properties in the course of a year. She was able to evaluate, stage, and negotiate these transactions with professionalism not often found in today’s world. We would highly recommend her to anyone selling or buying their home in the desert/​southern California area.

Catherine made the entire home buying experience wonderul. She put so much time and effort into researching the most suitable area for me.
Thanks Catherine!

Catherine was a joy to work with. She found us a great place in Palm Desert just like we wanted. She is very organized, patient and thorough. She kept in constant communication with us during the process and was very easy to deal with. I would strongly recommend her for your real estate needs.

I’m a Realtor in Big Bear Lake, Bob Angilella with RE/​MAX Big Bear. I decided to buy a home in Rancho Mirage and I wanted to use an agent who was familiar with the area. Not knowing one, I took my chances and walked into Windermere Real Estate Company on Hwy 111. Catherine was the agent on the floor. We spoke for a while; she asked all the right questions. That week, she emailed me all listings with-​in my price bracket that met my criteria. The next week, we met and we viewed 6 listings, one that was perfect! We made an offer and she negotiated the deal as I requested along with arranging contractors and appointments. Catherine was organized, articulate and honest through the whole process. I could not be happier with an agent as I was with Catherine. I even offered her a job in Big Bear Lake and I still hold to that! Catherine is my «go to» agent for all our clients in the desert. One of the best agents I’ve had the opportunity to work with… pure professionalism all the way! Thank you Catherine!

Ms. Catherine Cripe, realtor, attorney, and interior designer, helped me find my first home in Rancho Cucamonga. As we searched for my home, she stayed within my price range and location preferences. The process of making an offer, and escrow was highly efficient. We closed in 30 days on the first house I made an offer on!

We met Catherine at an open house in Palm Desert and immediately wanted to work with her. Her background as an attorney and interior designer adds to her skills as a realtor. She was always available to answer our questions and advocated for us at every juncture. Her attention to all the details really impressed me. Catherine never rushed us into any decisions and provided us with all the information we needed. She had recommendations on everything we needed for our new home. And she made the whole process fun!

Catherine is a phenomenal realtor who knows her business and is very passionate about her work. Catherine helped my husband and I purchase a second home in La Quinta and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. Since we didn’t live in the area, she was very helpful in taking care of matters for us in our absence. She is reliable, dependable, honest and thorough. She is definitely a realtor we would highly recommend.

Catherine represented us in locating and purchasing our weekend home at Indian Ridge during Spring, 2015. Not only did she listen carefully to our «wish list» of home features, she compiled a lengthy list of possible properties that were all in desirable locations, within our price range, and which met our stated parameters. Catherine is professional, intelligent, efficient, well-​organized, detail-​oriented, nice, capable, experienced, and fun. Really, you couldn’t ask for anyone more competent and enjoyable work with. Catherine sheparded us through the entire purchasing process, and even went so far as – after we closed escrow – to make sure we had names of local venders, repair people and restaurants. I would rate her 10 stars if that was an option!

Catherine helped us find our desert oasis vacation property in Palm Desert very quickly. We lived in Orange County and she was very flexible in accommodating our schedule with regards to home viewings. After we gave her our criteria, she worked very hard to stay within the parameters with regards to price, HOA’s, a golf course view and amenities! She used email to provide options and when we came out to the desert it was an organized and targeted experience. In just three visits we found our vacation condo! In addition, her astute negotiation skills helped us close at the best price possible for the LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! We appreciated her professional demeanor so much we recommended her to some friends who have now also closed on a second vacation property. Catherine is fabulous!

Catherine was my Realtor in finding my retirement home in Lake Arrowhead and the entire process was seamless, and she handled the whole process with upmost attention to me, my wishes, and closing the deal. I highly recommend Catherine for your Real Estate needs! In fact she will sell my current home when I am ready to give her the go ahead.
