Katie Haas
Transaction Director & Office Manager
Katie has been a part of the Pleasant View Realty Team since its inception in 2001. She is everyone’s “go-to” person in the office because, if you have a question, Katie will make sure you get an answer!
Not only does she have her Broker’s License and Notary, but she is knowledgeable in all areas of a real estate business setting. She has an in-depth understanding of contracts, dates and deadlines, local communities, the lending process, and the title process. She understands the complex Real Estate market and the importance of the small details, which is appreciated by our sales team, as well as local lenders, attorneys, and title companies with whom she communicates regularly. She is particularly proficient in the closing and accounting side of PVR but we also consider her our tech expert, phone specialist, printer repair person, systems analyst, and team meeting leader. As you can see, she wears many hats!
We are incredibly lucky to have Katie as our Transaction Director & Office Manager! Be sure to say hello to her when you stop in the office, and we guarantee you’ll be greeted with a smile and a warm welcome.
