"We have been talking for many years about buying land to retire to. The first big step was deciding on an area. When COVID hit we realized you never know what the world holds and how easy it is for things to turn on its side. We started getting serious about finding that area that was for us. We did our research and decided Eastern Tennessee. We started looking for places on line and found one place that interested us. We reached out and were matched up with Pat. Let me tell you, things got so much better from there. From the first phone discussion we had with her we realized she was different, in a good way. she knew her area and her job like the back of her hand, but she was honest, kind, caring and genuinely wanted to find the land that fit us. We went down in February 2021 and in the cold and the rain she showed us several properties. Some were close but none were just right. We came home a bit deflated but Pat told us she wouldn’t give up until she found the right property and she didn’t. We would get regular emails from her with listings, anytime we would show interest she would go out in rain or heat and go check out the property right away, talk to neighbors and send pictures or videos she took herself. Finally in early summer we got information on a property. It looks like exactly what we were looking for. We reached out to Pat and she went to look at it. I got a call saying this is the one and we believed her. Sight unseen because since day one Pat was in it for us. We actually purchased the land sight unseen (which isn’t us at all) because we trust her so much. We went down the week after the purchase was final and finally got to see the land. It is everything we wanted and hoped for in our retirement land. Pat is a one of a kind agent. they don’t make them like her anymore! She will do everything in her power to make your dreams a reality. She did for us! Choose Pat Gates for your realty needs, you won’t regret it! "
