Testimonials
Carol and Matt made the entire process of selling our home perfectly seamless. They navigated complicated situations and challenges with the utmost confidence and a calm demeanor. They were encouraging to us and provided ongoing support with their outstanding communication skills and consistent updates along the way. We found ourselves bragging to our friends and family that "Our agents do THIS" and "Our agents do THAT." Not only do they have the intelligence and knowledge to be amazing at their job, but they are also charming and very pleasant to work with! We joked numerous times that they need their own HGTV show! They are definitely a dynamic duo. We were extremely apprehensive to sell and buy during such unprecedented times, but Carol and Matt's partnership made us realize we made the right decision. We could NOT have done this without them. We would (and will) recommend Carol and Matt to everyone!
Chad and Cibele, (Sellers) Olathe, KS
There are no words to express how grateful my wife and I are to Carol, Matt, and their wonderful team for helping us find our perfect first home. My wife and I were honestly a little terrified to go through this process and we didn’t even know if we had what it took to go through with buying a home (turns out we did and Carol helped us feel assured immediately). Carol sat with us and explained all the steps to buying a house and everything she would do to take most of the pressure off our shoulders. We were surprised to learn not only how possible this process would be but how reassuring it felt to have someone as knowledgeable as her taking lead. What we loved most about this process with Carol and her team was their continuously supportive communication (even at midnight or 6:00 a.m.) and making sure we always knew what the next steps were, especially with being first-time home buyers. Carol was very proactive during our search and was usually able to show homes to us with just a few hours’ notice. Another aspect of this process that we loved was Carol’s knowledge of the conditions of a house and the repairs it could need (outcomes of inspections). She was always very honest about the conditions of a house and would give the most honest (yet always encouraging) educated opinions. It made us feel reassured that we would not end up with a house that would “surprise us” in the future with excessive repairs or troubles. We would like to thank this team of experts for all the hours dedicated, your hard work, the many showings, always advocating for our best interest (even when that meant staying up all night to fight for us), and so much more! They are here to find you your perfect home, not just any home; we never felt pressured to make an offer. Their knowledge of the local market is outmatched, and this helped us put in competitive offers (in a constant multiple-offers market)! After our offer was accepted and the house appraised exactly as predicted by Carol, she made sure she and her team were on top of everything, letting us know exactly what to expect, while answering ALL of our many (more) questions. This process was honestly as breeze thanks to them and we were always prepared for the next steps due to Carol’s meticulous planning and guidance. Although we are aware that Carol, Matt, and their team had multiple other clients, they made us feel like their absolute top priority. We honestly don’t know how you do it, but we sincerely thank you. They made this experience feel like a breeze. Trust this team because I can guarantee you, without a doubt in my mind, that you will feel the same way about this process as we did by having them on the lead. Sincerely, Christopher and Ana

Cibele P. (Seller), Lenexa, KS
Carol and Matt worked together to make a seemingly daunting process easy and worry-free. They walked with me every step of the way; outlining a winning strategy and taking any confusion out of selling my home. Their expert knowledge helped me get a great price for my home in no time at all, and they were courteous and considerate of my busy schedule, making closing a breeze. I couldn’t be happier with their performance, and the subsequent sale. I’d recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home!
Vincent Alonzo, (SelleR) Kansas City, KS
Carol is awesome! She is super caring and professional. When we decided to sell out house, I mentioned to Carol and she did the walkthrough with me. She brought up all the different scenarios and I love her because she is honest, very knowledgeable and awesome realtor marketer. Guys, we sold our house within 24 hours on the market!
Nana Nakamura, (Seller) Lenexa, KS
We first spoke to Carol a few months before we were ready to buy. We gave her some of our details about what we are looking for and when we planned to close. She never pressured us to move faster than we were comfortable with. We really loved her passion, attention to details and how she handled everything. It all showed that she really cared about us and that we were not just another client. As first time buyers, she made sure she explained every step along the way, always kept our best interest in the negotiations and always responded quickly with any questions we had. We strongly recommend Carol and her team any person that need a real state agent.
Flavia Costa and Michael Fields (Buyers), Lenexa, KS
Carol’s professionalism and passion made an otherwise challenging process a breeze. Selling a property can be a daunting task, but Carol was able to effectively market my Mother’s condo during an economic downturn in a way that ensured a quick sale at an excellent price. I can’t speak highly enough of Carol. She truly was a blessing for my family during a difficult time.
Kristene Hampton (Seller) Kansas City, MO
Carol is a rock star as a Realtor. She kept all the stress off of my shoulders (and believe me, there was a lot), and she did it all with a smile on her face, trying to smooth everything out. On my, almost, 6th year in USA, I bought and sold more than 5 times and I recently found her and I'm so thrilled and happy for that! Thank you so much, Carol and Team for been so professional and friendly at the same time with me and my Family.
Thata Cinelli, (Seller) Lenexa-KS
Carol has the expertise and guided us on how to prepare the house for a good and fast sale with the appropriate sales price. She is ready to help you at any time and she gives you the right attention for fast decision making.
Ricardo Cinelli (Seller) - Overland Park
Carol went above and beyond to support our needs with excellence. Patience, Knowledge and Firm to negotiate prol customers, were key elements that I highlight as a customer experience. The process to buy a first home can be overwhelming (That's what we thought before working with Carol), but she was very patience to explain the process step by step as they come without overloading you with unnecessary information. Everything came in a natural pace. Carol found our home at the right time, in very organic way. I was pleased to have our paths crossed on this amazing experience. Thank you again Carol !
Fabio Moura, (Buyer) Olathe-KS
I am very pleased with the outcome of my work with Carol Rossi-Zabielski. She understood my immediate needs, my budget, and guided me through things I was not expecting. Her priority was to satisfy me and not to get a sale done. She negotiated hard on my behalf and I feel I got the best deal on the transaction. Carol arranged the most affordable inspections and that saved me a lot of time and money. She walked through the properties before and after to make sure viewing was efficient and ready to go. I will certainly use Carol again and again for my properties.
Wanessa Dougherty (Buyer) Olathe, KS
Carol’s tenacity was paramount to our selecting the Zabielski Team. We have busy schedules, and during the course of the sale, there were several times she was able to prove how much of a relief it is to have someone asserting your best interests.
Andrea Million (Buyer) Prairie Village, KS
Carol did a great job. She new what I needed and worked with the broker and lender to get me a faster than normal closing. Would definetly recommend het services to and friends or family. :)
Michael Brown (Buyer) Kansas City, MO
Carol is an extraordinary agent. She recently helped me find a new home and was really attentive to my needs/wants through the whole process. Always communicative and responsive, knowledgeable about the market, and very very patient. I have to say her negotiation skills are superb! She got me a great deal on my property. She's definitely surpassed any expectations I had & I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling in KC. She's a gem in the Real Estate industry- an agent who truly cares about her clients and wants the best possible results. I'll always use her for all my RE needs!
Denise Honda (Buyer) Lenexa, KS
Carol was a dream to work with! She's dilligent, aggressive when its required and really fights for her clients' best interests.
Not only did Carol advise us on the best route to sell our house, but she also sold the house before it officially went on the market. It was such a relief to not have to pack up the kids and all of their stuff multiple times to show the house.
She also helped us buy a new house within a day. I called at 10:30 am and asked if she could show it and by 1 pm we were viewing the house, by 3pm she had our offer in the seller's hands. She gave us the best advice on what to offer and we were able to get the house in a multiple offer situation.
We truly appreciated all of the hard work and communication before, during, and after the buying and selling processesses.

We considered listing our house without an agent, but decided to consult with Carol first, just in case. From the first meeting, we were so iimpressed with her knowledge of the area and her counsel and expertise of the market and selling process. Carol was the perfect ally to have to ensure a seamless process and to get the most out of our sale. She is driven and hungry, without being aggressive, she has an incredible savviness for Marketing and staging and she's extremely versed with numbers. On top of that, she's very responsive, always positive, kind and funny- a real pleasure to be around! We trusted every advice she gave us and followed her lead throughout the whole process. We could not have asked for a better agent to accompany us in what is often a tedious process. Carol has her client's back with grit and grace!
Mary Mannant (Seller)
"The day we met Carol was a very lucky day for us, we were referred through family. The sale of our property was not typical, in fact I would consider it a challenge, but Carol was first and foremost patient, understanding, caring and extremely knowledgeable. My mom had lived in this home for 42 years and was facing moving out of state, it was emotional. The house needed work, but Carol saw through that and reassured us that we could sell the home and get the asking price we wanted. Carol took the anxiety we were facing out of this phase of the life changing event we were going through. She was more than a professional partner, she was kind and gentle with my mom, and she sold the home in 12 hours for $25K over asking. It is clear and obvious that Carol puts her clients first, we are indebted to Carol and her team and full of gratitude for being lucky enough to have had the opportunity to work with her! Even though we moved out of state, we will refer every person we know from the Kansas City area to Carol if they are looking for an agent. I can honestly say one of the best business experiences of my life! Thank you to Carol and her team!"
Cindy AI-Atabi Dearborn, Ml (Seller) 7 months ago
"Excellent job done Carol. We surpassed the agent/buyer relationship! Our families became friends. We appreciate your hard work, your demanding ways of putting things on and off the table both for us as buyers but most importantly for the seller. Thank you for everything you did for my family, after some frustration with another local agent you were a sunshine after the storm! Obrigado(a)!!!

"Carol went above and beyond to ensure our house would would sell quickly and for top dollar, which is more than what we imagined! The amount of time and effort she put into preparing our home truly showed her passion in serving her clients! Not only was Carol always quick to respond with any questions we had, but she always kept us informed throughout the entire selling process. Carol's level of knowledge in the realtor business is remarkable and truly makes her shine from other realtors in the area. Not to mention Carol's negotiation skills are by far the best we have ever seen and was shocked when she guaranteed us what she would sell our home for and did exactly that plus more! Carol prepared us every step of the way even before we listed and every recommendation she gave us to upgrade/fix in our home paid off just like she said! Carol is by far the most genuine person we have ever met and highly recommend her to anyone selling their home! After we closed on our home, Carol delivered us the most delicious buntz cake, a bottle of wine, and a gift card for our family to have dinner at this amazing restaurant. She is the best realtor ever and we can't thank her enough for everything she did for our family! Top realtor agent in the making!!"
Tasha Middleton, Kansas City KS (Seller) 8 months ago
"Carol was amazing to work with! She listened to me and made sure that she was available to answer my questions as I was a 1st time home buyer with lots of questions. Carol was very aware of all the details and on top of everything I needed to know. She did an amazing job negotiating for me on the house that I wanted. Carol was always friendly and ready to help with anything that I needed. I will recommend Carol to anyone that I know who is looking to buy or sell a home! She was amazing to work with :)"
Rachel Robb (Buyer) 8 months ago
"Carol and her entire team were great to work with! Sale of our how was quick and smooth. We had a couple issues, with the other realtor, on the home we were trying to buy after selling ours. Carol and Matt worked to get us out of the contract and found us something that we ended up buying the same day. Can't say enough about this team from listing to close! Class act!"
Andy Turley, Kansas City (Seller) 8 months ago
"Carol and Matt did an awesome job. They helped with suggestions to get our house ready to sell and they were there for us every step of the way throughout the process. We were able to get an offer above asking price within 24 hours of listing. I don't think this would have been possible without their knowledge, assistance and excellent marketing campaign."
Becky and Chris, Lenexa (Seller) 8 months ago
"Carol was, hands down, the best realtor with whom I have ever worked. Everything was communicated very clearly to me and I felt confident that she was fighting for my best interests as a seller. After the sale of my home was completed, she brought me a delicious bunt cake and also a gift card for a nice restaurant in my new neighborhood. How nice is that? I guarantee that you will be overjoyed with the experience of working with Carol!"
Jason Pallett, Kansas City, KS (Seller) 8 months ago
"Carol was so good to work with. From my wife's description Carol knew instantly what we were interested in. Immediately we found the house we wanted. Moving to KC from 450 mi. away meant communications, negotiations, contracts had to be done via internet and phone calls. Carol, with her knowledge, made the process very simple. If we had questions, Carol quickly had the answers. She was certainly great to work with. I would without a doubt recommend Carol to anyone looking for a home. Thanks Carol"

"Carol and her team really went above and beyond our expectations. They made sure to understand our needs and took care of us. From home repairs to staging, inspection and sales we didn't have to worry about a single things. We were out of the country during this process and they arranged every little detail for us. Their marketing plan was also very unique and effective. We sold our home in one day. Really happy with the service and highly recommend them. We have never experienced anything like that level of service before! Rea/Iv haoov with the results. This team absolutelv rocks!"
Fabiola and Leo Hart (Seller) 10 months ago
''After a failed attempt of a realtor not understanding our need to find a home quickly, due to our needing to relocate from out of state in a short amount of time, we were blessed to find Carol after a Google search. She went above and beyond to help us while we were half way across the US. Buying a home from that far away and only being able to view homes via facetimelpictures was not ideal, but Carol did everything she could to make it easier for us and was so helpful to us during the process. We have lived in 5 states and have bought 5 homes, so we are not new to using realtors, and I can honestly say Carol is the best of the best! I'd recommend her 10 times over!''

We felt very secure working with Carol and KC Homes. Carol took wonderful care of us and the process itself from beginning to end!"

Carol was so much more than just a real estate agent, she was extremely friendly and demonstrated tremendous understanding of our needs!! We will definitely recommend her to all of our family and friends

"Carol and RZ team provided excellent service. They provided guidance on negotiation and making sure the price was fair. We had a big issue after inspections and Carol did everything she could to get it resolved with the best contractors and in timely manner. Carol went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with the resolution. It is important to have knowledgable people on your side and RZ team was it for us. Highly recommend!"
Charkes dAblaing (Buyer) about a year ago
"Carol Rossi-Zabielski is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with. Having moved more than 18 times, Carol stood out and ahead of all other realtors I have ever worked with. This sale took place in Kansas when I was living in Maryland which meant that Carol had to work and operate not only as the realtor, but also in the entire capacity of the homeowner. Integrity, clear communications, and being trustworthy were the most critical aspects to me when finding a realtor and Carol came highly recommended by a quite a few local Kansas friends. From my initial conversation, I knew she was the perfect agent for me. The entire process was laid out, constantly and clearly explained, and I was updated daily. I had no stress at all and everything was taken care of for me by Carol's capable hands. Without a doubt, I would recommend her to any and all friends and family which says a lot because I am very critical and demanding when working such important transactions as the sale of a home. Carol had me under contract before we even went active and she got me the full asking price for my home which came in higher than my expectations since she knew the area and exactly what she could push the market for and get from the sale. I can honestly say that there is no realtor I would rather ever work with than Carol and I can't thank her enough for turning a very stressful process into a calm and absolutely enjoyable event. Thank you, Carol!!!"
