Your Downtown Hounds
Janet Gatejen, Owner.Broker
I am the Broker for Urban Hound
Properties - a real estate company that I started in January of 2007.
I have been in the real estate business for over 20 years. I have lived in
Sacramento
all of my life. I was born in East
Sacramento
and I live here now. I feel fortunate to live in what I feel is one the best neighborhoods
in our city. I started selling real estate in 1985. I sold my first home on
Santa Barbara Court
for $87,500. I am passionate about older
homes because they have such a great feel to them. I have lived in East Sacramento
for almost 20 years now.
I live in a home that was built in 1915; the lot was purchased
in 1914 by two brothers for 10
U.S.
gold coins!
Lizzie
Red Bone Coon Hound
The Alpha Protector of All!
Loves: all humans.

Heidi Hagen, Agent for Buyers
Heidi is, without a doubt,
the
best buyer’s agent that you will ever meet. She has only been in the real estate
business for a little over a year, yet she has the skills and knowledge
of a seasoned agent. She takes her commitment to her clients very seriously.
She listens, she educates and she advises. Not only does she hear what the buyer needs and
wants, she uses that information to find them the very best home. She also
teaches her clients the important things to know when purchasing a property. This ranges from
value, location and style of home, to the types of inspections that should be
performed once the property is in escrow. She is very knowledgeable of real estate contracts and disclosures and she advises her buyer on the best strategy to take throughout the entire negotiation process. She is a fantastic
negotiator and will fight for her buyer to win; Heidi does not like to lose! The
most amazing thing about Heidi is that she is absolutely sincere and dedicated to each and
every one of her clients. Of my 20 years in this business I
have never seen an agent so caring and committed.

Kevin Kurtz, Real Estate Agent
Kevin is a long-time Sacramento resident, having lived here for nearly 20 years. He became a realtor in 2008 after years of working as a high school and college tennis coach.

Whether it is residential, commercial or leases, he is committed to understanding your needs and goals and helping you to achieve them.
