If you are in the market to buy, sell, or build, you absolutely need to use Brandon Craft Homes and Craft Realty. My experience with their team has made the perceived stresses of home buying a breeze. I personally got to work with Katie Lewis. As a first time home buyer, I was extremely cautious and unaware of the necessary steps to begin looking for a home. It was a true blessing to be paired with Katie, who will be our forever realtor! She invested so much of her time and energy making sure we were involved in the process and aware of what each step meant—even scheduling a zoom lesson to make sure I was knowledgeable of all language in the necessary paperwork. Her most important quality is her character. She was supportive of our “pace” as we went from potential buyers who browsed Zillow to serious buyers—which was a breath of fresh air. She didn’t apply pressure to buy quickly, but kept us informed of how quickly we would need to move if we found THE house. Her plate was full with multiple closings, but she made us feel like we were the only clients in the world. Katie helped us see the vision for our home and went above and beyond to work alongside us as we navigated different properties. Once we found our dream home (thanks to her lighting fast communication), she ensured every inch of the home was up to par with thorough inspections. She also connected us with an amazing team of contractors who made our perfect home even better. Her ability to clearly articulate the specifics of a property, her skilled negotiation strategies, and the relationships she builds with her clients and those involved in the home buying process are all qualities that make her a top-ranked realtor. Thanks to Katie, we have a beautiful home and will recommend her to everyone we know.

Katie Lewis with Craft Realty went above and beyond at a level we didn't think was even possible. I don't believe you will ever find someone who will work so hard to make sure you get exactly what you want and expect when looking for a home. In our case, it was a home that we drove past every day for many years. By chance it listed right after our search began and she arranged a viewing then helped us seal the deal. But just because we bought a home that we found ourselves doesn't mean she took it easy, she is an absolute hero for our family. She is very detailed and specific in conversations to acquire the information she needed in order to evaluate our wants and needs plus she made sure we checked every box on our list and never stopped showing us alternatives to ensure we were confident in our choices. When it came to negotiating the price and terms, I will just say that we were on the winning side because of Katie. Her kind, respectful, and friendly personality made her an instant hit with every member of the family but I can't help but think the sellers are just a little bitter after the final negotiations were complete. It is very obvious to us now that during the time she worked with us she was quite busy with other clients, but there was never a moment that we felt she had anything else to do other than work with us and help us find what we were looking for. She never rushed us, we really felt we were her only clients. She was recommended to us by a long time friend and we are forever grateful for that and now we highly recommend Katie to anyone looking to buy or sell. The Genre Family is eternally grateful to you Katie and we wish you the highest levels of success in everything you do.

We had been looking for houses off and on for 2 years and nothing felt just right for our family. It wasn’t until Katie Lewis offered to help us find our dream home that our vision of finding our forever home became a reality. With the expertise of Katie Lewis and Craft Realty on our side the process of buying our forever home and selling our first home, in a whopping 4 days, could not have gone smoother. Katie worked tirelessly to find us the perfect house that was the right fit our family. She drove through neighborhoods, consulted neighbors and her team, researched school districts and beyond to make sure she was checking all of our boxes. Her enthusiasm for her job and knowledge of design, building, and the home buying process make her one of the best in the business. This is truly her calling in life and it shows. Katie went above and beyond to schedule showings, staging, pictures, and videos to get our first home sold within 4 days with backup offers. She scheduled meetings with contractors to make our dream home even more perfect and advised us on best practices for everything from drainage issues to paint colors and more. We were truly blessed to have a wonderful team and realtor on our side. Katie will forever be our favorite realtor and we could not recommend her more.

My husband and I have used Cherith and Brandon Craft for a number of different projects. The first one we did was a big remodel of our home. They were amazing to work with and helped us achieve exactly what we wanted. Then a few years later we bought 2 airbnb's and Cherith and her team took on the entire project and helped us furnish both homes. They found the furniture, ordered it and installed it. They were so good to work with and took care of everything. After that we decided we wanted to build a home in Baton Rouge and immediately knew who we were going to use. Building our dream home was a great experience and we love our home. Brandon did a great job walking us through every step of the process and giving us great advice on what to do and not to do. Overall working with Brandon and Cherith has been a great experience and I highly recommend them!

My husband and I had the chance to experience the full CRAFT Experience. In July of 2018, we sold our home with Mallory, under contract in just 2 weeks for full price...she then helped us find a rental while we figured out our plan of action. We purchased a lot in Central and decided to have Brandon build us a custom home. We were able to customize our home based on our specific needs. Brandon walked us through the entire process from plans to paint to flooring...you name it...he was there to guide us. We are almost finished building our home and we can't wait to have Cherith with Craft Interiors help us add the finishing touches to our new home! What a wonderful experience from start to finish...so seamless and stress free.
