Christy Colburn was with me every step of the way in my early 20’s when I bought my first home. Fast forward 10 years, a marriage and 3 kids later she was here to help us buying another home that fit our family. She was patient explaining anything to us and was always willing to actively give updates, this helped lessen the stress of the buying and selling process. I cannot thank her enough and we always refer her to anybody looking to purchase a home.

Christy was great to work with. Her expertise helped us acquire a house when the market wasn't in our favor. Even though my husband and I live in another state, our house buying process was seamless. We wouldn't have felt comfortable doing everything remotely without Christy's guidance. Thank you, Christy!

- Juliette F

Both Christy and Lorie were very patient during the process of clearing out our house and working on the few updates to get it ready for the sale. Very timely with paperwork and upfront with any changes that occured during our process. Made the whole thing easy and simple.

- Wesley C

Our experience with the Colburn team (Christy and Lorie) was fantastic! Looking for a new home in an unfamiliar city can be extremely stressful. Christy and Lorie made us feel at ease, and found us the perfect 'forever' home. ' We were a little out of practice with the steps for buying a new home after being in our existing home for over 15 years. Christy guided us through the negotiation process with knowledge, professionalism, and patience. From start to finish, we felt like VIPs receiving great advice and thoughtful recommendations. If you are looking for the best of the best, look no further you will find it within these two ladies! The Colburn team was recommended to us, and will return that favor by recommending them to others. Thank you both so much!

- Gail D

From the beginning to the end, Christy was so easy to work with. She asked us the right questions on our first meeting and she truly listened to our answers and our concerns. Then, she kept us informed and updated on all steps of the selling process and she responded quickly to any questions we had. Christy had the added step of working with our relocation company and she worked well with them. We would definitely recommend The Colburn Team to anyone buying or selling in the St. Charles County area!

- Laura O

We had a wonderful experience with Christy and Lorie…. They helped us through each step of buying…. Staging and selling! They were quick to respond to any questions and helped make these very stressful events easy!

- Shirlee N

From my first contact, I found Christy to be personable, knowledgeable, informative and professional. We developed a strategy and provided an offer to buy our dream house that was accepted within 8 hours. Communication, Inspections and Closing were well coordinated, issues that arose were addressed and resolved soundly… the next phase was the sale of our home. Together we walked through our home, evaluated, assessed and developed a plan. We prepared our home for pictures and hit the MLS. We received and accepted an offer before we had a chance to catch our breath. Christy and the team brought us through the sale and closing without any concerns or hiccups. Her knowledge, skills and abilities rest at the top of the industry.

- Forrest N

Christy was amazing. We did everything she suggested and our house sold in two days for so much more than we ever expected! She was always there for any questions or concerns and was very professional in the handling of the sale of our home. Could not have gone better! She was a joy to work with!

- Barbara C

This is not the first home we have worked with Berkshire Hathaway - Lorie and Christy in selling and purchasing a home. With each experience I am impressed with the information we receive on comps in the area to better make decisions on pricing our home as well as the availability of inventory in the area we are looking to move. I am never left hanging out there without a response to texts and emails. Their knowledge and service are truly priceless.

- Kent G

Christy was always very prompt answering any texts we sent her. We were given lots of good information concerning buying/selling a home. Any appointments we had with her were always on time but never felt rushed.

- Robin F

We love our new home, and we couldn’t have found our perfect house without you! Thank you so much!

- Ben Slover, Wentzville

I went into the process of buying a home not having a clue what to expect. I told Christy in our initial conversation I just needed her to shoot me straight about everything. She did just that. Every step of the way she told me what to expect and what our timeline would be. When finding a home for me she listened to my priorities and found exactly what I wanted. Christy was very approachable and her communication was everything I needed in order to get this done.

- Ashlee Kiefer, Lake St. Louis

We first started working together with the original plan, if something could be found, to buy a new house and then deal with selling the old one after we were completely moved out. Various problems kept popping up in the interim period after finding a new house and prior to listing the old one that had me thinking this plan was a huge mistake. Christy did a fantastic job of leading us in the right direction to get these problems squared away timely and reasonably cost-wise. She was very knowledgeable of what needed to be done and had contacts we could count on to get the work done. All of my worries were put to rest very quickly after we listed the house, with a contract for more than the list price. I would recommend her and her team to anyone.

- Mike & Jerri Koffman

Lorie and Christy were amazing. They listened, provided great feedback and helped guide me through the entire process. I would recommend Lorie and Christy to any seller or buyer in the area in a heartbeat.

- Mitchell

We dealt with Lorie as our selling agent. She was super. Christy brought and represented the buyer. From our perspective, Christy handled that end of the transaction very well. Great team!

I highly recommend the BH team. They handled our sale with a high level of professionalism and urgency.

- Phil & Ruthetta Hunt, Lake Saint Louis, Missouri

Christy made every step of the home buying purchase simple and smooth. She was patient and thorough throughout. Christy paid special attention to the relationship we had and made sure we were comfortable and informed along the way. Her knowledge of the area was top notch, and her explanation with every benchmark we hit was spot on. I cannot recommend her any higher. Her and her team took great care with us. Christy Colburn and the Berkshire Hathaway Group earned our business in every way.

- Megan S

Christy is easy to work with and she was very helpful during a stressful time.

- Phil Rowe St. Peters MO

Ultimate professional from the beginning to the end. Highly recommend Christy to others.

- Sharon Wentzville

Christy and Lorie are ultimate professionals that took the time to help me sell and buy a home in a matter of weeks. They made the process from start to finish less stressful and were very considerate of my situation. I would highly recommend both for your real estate needs.

- Sharon D.

Christy Colburn and Lorie Yeftich were the best. Highly professional and great at their job. They sold and bought our new house in 30 days. They're Awesome !

- Stephen Loughridge Lake Saint Louis

Very helpful, understanding, explanations of process & her patience.

- Michael Little Edmond, OK

Repeat business is perhaps the best sign of a job well done. Lorie Yeftich helped me purchase my home and now she helped me sell it in under 30 days during the off-peak market. She also helped me find my next place. Along the way, there were challenges but she overcame each one using her many years of experience, knowledge and resourcefulness. That's what you have with The Colburn Team!

- Terry Lyon, Foristell

Lorie Yeftich and the Colburn Team gave us very solid advice on the best way to sell our house and correct pricing for our house. long story short we sold our house for just under asking price in 10 days.

Lorie and the Colburn team also assisted us in the purchase of our new house and without their expertise we may not have landed our dream home.

A week before we were to close on the new house the seller disclosed a bankruptcy he filed earlier in the year. Lori quickly got their legal team involved and got us a new contract with the Bankruptcy attorney and Trustee representing the estate. Even thought there were many, many, many moments that could have ended the deal with a less experienced real estate team, Lorie and the Colburn team persevered when many people that had been in the industry for 20+ years said they 'had never heard of the case like this'

My wife and I are now settling into our dream home and we would like to give a heart felt thanks to Lori Yeftich and the Colburn Team.

- The Franklins, St Charles

Christy did a fantastic job advocating for our interests and making sure our new home purchase went smoothly.

- Sean Nottingham, O’Fallon

Christy previously sold a home for us and found a new beautiful one, so we knew she would be a good choice for us. Christy has a wonderful personality and is very easy to work with. She made this transition very easy.

Christy laid out a plan for us to prepare our house to put on the market. We did as she purposed, she had an open house and we had six offers and it sold in one day.

We worked with Joy on our closing and she was very pleasant and informative to work with.

The best team you will ever find!

Christy was easy to work with and went above and beyond to show us houses

- Phil Rowe st. Charles mo

I was very impressed with Christy and Lorie...I have had Christy sell my homes in the past...she is my daughter in law and one of the top agents with our agency.

- Deborah Colburn, New Melle, MO

I have completed four different transactions with Christy Colburn over the past thirteen years and found her to be professional well informed and very good at answering detailed questions about both purchase and sales transactions. Her skills are very helpful when making decisions with a large amount of dollars attached. I purchased a house using Christy Colburn as the agent in late 2014. She reviewed my loan information and suggested that I get a second opinion. I was pretty hesitant at first but wound up saving over $9,500.00. Christy Colburn delivers fantastic results. I do not recommend people however Christy Colburn is the exception because she is very good at what she does, and I'm confident that you will be happy with her services. If you are considering buying or selling properties contact Christy Colburn as she is sure to add value to your transaction. Thank you. SL

- Shan Lawson

Christy was amazing. The sale of this property took perseverance, patience, and new learning for all involved. Christy addressed each phase realistically, was extremely supportive, and had a great sense of humor.

- Naeger Family, St. Louis, MO

Lorie did a fantastic job and I'm not sure I would have been at all able to navigate this short sale without her. She was responsive to my questions and helped make sure I stayed on task with necessary documents (I don't do well at monitoring my email and the texts she sent as heads up were very helpful). Lorie put a lot of work into the sale of my house and I couldn't be more pleased.

- Eric Owens, Connecticut

Christy helped us by staging our home before listing. She marketed our home so when we did list ,it only took 1 day and we had a full offer. Great job!

- Terry sellers

Recently, I was asked to relocate my family and after 3 previous moves it was a very tough decision to make. We knew Christy Colburn outside of work and reached out to her for advice; after talking with her we knew she would see to it that this relocation would not be like the others and made the decision to go forward and selected her as our realtor of choice. Christy sat down with our family (patiently I might add as we had 4 girls climbing all over her) and took the time to walk us through the entire process. During that first sit down meeting, she shared The Colburn Team's history, results, plan to advertise locally and on social media and delivered a plan for getting potential buyers to the house for viewings. The results speak for themselves; the house went on the market and within 3 weeks the house sold and we were able to turn a profit. Not one time did we feel stressed or overwhelmed; Christy was there every step of the way!

I would recommend Christy Colburn to anyone looking to sell a house or get real estate advice from. She is a genuine person that truly cares about her clients as people!

- Matt Peeples Wolfforth, TX

Due to a employment relocation, we had to sell a house in Missouri and buy one

in Kansas. There was alot of players involved on both ends of the deal. To talking

with buyers agent of our home in Missouri and talking with agents on the home we

were going to buy in Kansas, Lorie kept everybody in the loop with information, details, etc. I would recommend Lorie to anybody looking to buy or sell real estate,

a seasoned professional with a vast knowledge of real estate experience. If there is a way to make a deal happen, Lorie will find it. Great Job !!!!
