I am not one who normally writes reviews but due to the exceptional attention and service obtained by realtor Ms. Kori Marra and her team at Next Home, I felt it was a must. Believe me when I say, I truly could have never imagined that a Property Sale Transaction could be quick and run so smoothly, as ours did. When we met, Ms. Marras’ knowledge, professionalism and confidence on her capability to come thru, told me immediately that we were in the right hands. We only met once and that was all that was need, she quickly began to work non-stop to make things happen. Ms. Marra is highly committed to her clients and to bringing forth results. Working with her and her team was a positive and pleasant experience. So, if you need assistance with your next real estate transaction, call Ms. Marra, I can confidently say, you will be glad you did.

I own properties in Houston and had this one Sapphire Condo on South Padre. I interviewed other brokers on the possibility of listing with their firm. It appeared realtors were really interested “in the listing “. Kori was different : she had sold other units in the Sapphire , new the current activity on the island and was genuinely interested in not only listing but selling it. She kept me well informed of the showings , obstacles , and gave me great advice on wether to accept or decline and offer.
I never met the buyers or their realtor, yet I can say property would not have sold without Kori’s expertise in the days leading to the closing. Wish she was in Houston !

We were lucky enough to find Terry a couple of years ago, when we were looking to purchase a property on Sth Padre Island.
More Recently, March 2021, Terry worked on our behalf as we listed 2 properties for sale in Port Isabel.
Without doubt, Terry is the hardest working, most focused Agent in the Cameron County area. Terry has been successful in selling both properties, assisting with necessary Code requirements and with working with Title company to complete the sales , i might also add close to our asking prices)
Terry has great local knowledge, understands the market and moreover provides realistic guidance, timelines etc.
There is no better realtor in Cameron County in our opinion

Kori Marra
General manager
Kori helped us purchase our condo initially in November 2018. This transaction was unique as we live in Colorado and were shopping in our favorite beach town- South Padre Island Texas. We found a property online and Kori took video, arranged inspections, walked us through the process, helping us set up power, internet and cable. We had never met.
Over the 2 years we owned the condo she was available for every question and concern.
We travelled in September to SPI and began a conversation about selling as the market was shifting very quickly. We met and discussed our needs, developed a strategy for the sale and when the time was right we listed and sold immediately. We closed earlier this week, remotely, and had absolutely no issues or concerns.
Kori and her team are reliable and professional.
One other observation: Kori has an excellent reputation with associates in other real estate firms ( competitors), property management/lease agents and the law firm used to close our transaction.
We value the service her company offers and highly recommend them!

You won't rent to winter Texans; 3rd floor. This one would not work; bedroom was right by the pool and so on. I gained trust very quickly. He was going to make sure we got it right. The property that we ended up making an offer on, already had an offer on it. He strategically worked with us until the other party accepted our offer that day. Our inspection turned up a few issues.

My wife and I live out of state and we recently purchased a vacation condo in South Padre.
Bette was great to work with! We were originally using a lender in our home state who was also licensed in Texas. We started having issues with our lender and Bette recommended a local lender who got the deal done and saved us a ton of money.
Everytime I called her or needed something she was on it. My wife and I both really enjoyed working with her and we will call Bette again when we buy our next condo.

I purchased a property using Tony, we are out of state and Tony came highly recommended. Living I Colorado it was difficult finding the right property but Tony was very helpful and useful as our in town realtor. Very responsive to phone calls, emails, and text messages. Tony always went above and beyond with site walks and inspections, addressing questions with HOA and management companies, we 100% could not have done this transaction without the help of Tony. Highly recommend him, look forward to future deals with him.

We had a condo for sale on South Padre Island for almost two years. We had been through two of the top realtors on the island and never had a serious offer and the realtors didn't really make much of an effort to market our property. When we switched to Terry Altermatt, he placed wooden signs out on the street when he had an open house and which seemed many times a week. We had a huge number of showings and our condo sold within about two weeks. Terry was very professional, a gentleman, low pressure to work with, and we would highly recommend him to sell your property quickly.

She spent countless hours answering our questions, working with the selling agent, our finance company, and the Title company to ensure everything was done correctly and promptly.
My husband and I are very thankful for all that she did to assist in this purchase. She is professional and yet friendly and welcoming so that no question feels as if you, the buyer is asking a dumb question! Thank you Bette for your time, expertise, and knowledge in helping us purchase a place for ourselves, children, and grandchildren to create many years of memories!

We met with Kori and instantly knew that she was the person that could help us find the right home for our family. After telling Kori what we were looking for, she took us to a bunch of homes that fit what we wanted. Knowing that we were not ready to buy right then, she still took the time to show us homes. We returned home and were in contact with Kori for a few months. She sent us listings, answered our questions and was very attentive to our needs. When we made the decision to buy, Kori met with us. We spent the next few days looking for just the right house. I have to say that she went above and beyond through out the entire buying process. She is an amazing person and realtor.

Kori is the hardest working person I have ever known! She was amazing at putting the deal together and keeping it together especially when I had difficulty getting my financing in place before the contract expired. Kori got me the best lender available - who got me a great deal on the loan. She also kept the seller from taking another offer by convincing him how badly we wanted the property. Kori also helped me arrange everything including: inspection, appraisal, locksmith and more - on her own time. She even went by the property and inventoried things to make sure everything was still there and in good shape, when I was unavailable. She deserves way more commission than she made on my little property. Working this hard for me on a property that cost under $100k, convinced me she is NOT in it simply for the $$. She truly wants to please her clients. AND she certainly did on this one. You wont go wrong if you decide to work with her. She'll give you everything she can to help you make your dream come true. She truly did for us. Thank you, Kori!! Mil Gracias!!
