We moved from Canada and were not able to see homes in person. Shelly did an outstanding job at giving us all the information we needed to make the right choice. She visited several houses in person for us, taking photos and video, and answering all of our questions. She was very committed to helping us find the house that was just right for us. She offered us helpful advice, but never imposed her own opinions, and was respectful of our needs and preferences. Shelly is very professional but also friendly and caring. She went above and beyond, putting in many hours on our behalf, and we strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the Morgantown area!

The first thing that caught my attention about Shelly Martin was her incredibly “firm” handshake upon meeting her. That “firmness” is the best way to describe Shelly as our agent. We were amazed with her assertiveness and tenacity, but most importantly her honesty. She did not sugar-coat things just to make a quick buck, if she believed a choice was bad for us then she let us know. This was particularly important to my wife and I because we were moving to Morgantown essentially sight unseen. The market in Morgantown was so different from what we are accustomed to so it was really refreshing when we met Shelly and got “straight” answers to our questions. When we first met Shelly in a brief house hunting trip to Morgantown we learned more about the town in a few hours then our numerous hours of research online. Unfortunately, we did not find a place that weekend but Shelly did an excellent job of following up with us in the subsequent weeks when potential properties came on the market. If we were interested in a place then she would go by the property within 24 hours and take numerous photos and videos of the place. I think the ultimate compliment to her is that we had absolute confidence in her. After a couple of weeks working with her she knew us so well that we trusted her opinion completely—she didn’t even have to take photos (although she did anyways). We would ask her straight out: is this place good for us? Every time we got a considerate and straight answer.
We honestly cannot say enough for how much we appreciate her work. So, if you want a “firm” agent (and friend) that will promptly respond to your questions, go out of her way to help you, and give you a “straight” answer, then Shelly Martin is the person for you. We would recommend her to any person moving to or in the area, and I would be willing to place a “firm” bet that it will be a great experience.
Thanks Shelly,

"I began searching for a new home with Shelly Martin about 3 years ago. We looked at many houses, put in offers, and even had contracts fall through. After numerous hours searching and many frustrations, we finally found the house meant for us this past fall. Shelly was patient and understanding, you could tell she was more interested in finding us the right house than just making the sale. She was wonderful, making sure everything was in order for closing and bearing the majority of the stress when situations were challenging. I highly recommend Shelly for anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

"We recently purchased a home and were represented by Shelly Martin and KLM Properties. We were under a very tight time line and Shelly worked very hard to make things happen for us. Shelly is very knowledgeable of the process associated with buying a home and a pleasure to work with!"

I recently listed my home in Morgantown with Shelly Martin of KLM Properties. Three days after I listed my home with Shelly I called to follow up to check if the lock box and sign were present. Not only were they present there was a contract on the house. After just 3 to 4 days Shelly had a contract and we sold the home.
I wanted to express my extreme satisfaction with her professionalism and knowledge of the housing market in Morgantown. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home.
