We were so thrilled to host our first #RHRLeadingLadies Night Out this week on Tuesday! We had 30 women join for a great evening of networking, conversation, snacks, and beautiful Kentucky weather over at The Grey Goose in Lexington, KY.
We’re glad so many of our agents could attending and look forward to seeing more Leading Ladies at the next one!
This Month’s edition of TOPSinLexington was all about Real Estate! ( Hey, we’re all about that, too!! )

We feature some of our top agents and listings each month in the luxurious print edition of TOPSinLexington. However it was fabulous to celebrate even more of our agents in this month’s issue!
Leading the pack of TOPSinLex Series called “Real Estate Rock Stars,” was our very own Mateyoke Group! Jenny Mateyoke & Heather Kuykendoll are consistent Top Producers – not only for Rector Hayden but also as part of the Lexington-Bluegrass Association of REALTORS.
“The real estate market is really booming in Central Kentucky. Buyers need to be ready to act quickly and be prepared by getting pre-approved for a mortgage!” – Jenny M.
“Jenny & Heather were great. We enjoyed working with them every step of the way on selling our home and buying our new home. We would highly recommend them. They were very professional and knowledgeable. You can’t ask for a better team!!” – Kristie & Breck, recent clients.
We’re also very proud of a newer agent with our company, Susan Saunier Hammett, and her featurette in this series as well! Susan works as part of The Jubilee Team at Rector Hayden, another top producing group.
“Rector Hayden is a great company to work with and their office support staff is absolutely the best!” – Susan H.
Aw, shucks, Susan. We think you’re pretty awesome, too!!
And guess who else showed up to the party this month – our fantastic auction team – THE HALFHILL AUCTION GROUP. The Halfhills + John Sanders + Gary Denton (two more fine agents with our company) worked to help bring in donations for the Living Arts & Sciences Center at their event “H’Artful of Fun.” You can see more photos of that event on the TOPS website by clicking the image below!
Trulia, an online residential real estate site for both clients and sellers in the US, released their rankings for Top Agents in 2014 by state. These agents ranked in the top 2% of their competition according to Trulia data. This data included number of TRULIA reviews, number of past sales included on the agent’s TRULIA profile, and their overall TRULIA star rating. Agents do not have to use a paid account in Trulia to have a chance to be awarded – they need to only be actively using their trulia profile for collecting reviews and past sales data.
48 Real Estate Agents in the entire state of Kentucky were selected as Trulia’s TOP AGENTS in 2014
No other company in Kentucky had that many of their agents chosen for this award. So for this week’s Featured Friday, we’d like to showcase the 5 agents who received this award.

RECENT TESTIMONIALS:
- “I called the Allnutt Group in to give me an idea of what my home was worth on the market under current conditions. I was a bit taken aback by how high the estimate and wasn’t sure I believed they were correct until they were able to arrange a sale for higher than the top end of the range they gave me. After seeing them in action, I am a believer now and would gladly use them again for any real estate transaction in Lexington. I think it was all the little things they were sure to do that allowed them to bring in the right buyer and close the deal under such favorable terms from hiring a professional photographer, ensuring they were the only agents displayed on Zillow under my ad, networking with other realtors and leveraging other technologies to give my home a competitive advantage even with other, lower-priced homes on the market in my neighborhood. They averaged over one showing per day from the first day on market to acceptance of the buyer’s offer. This team works hard to get from listing to sale and it showed throughout the process. Kudos.” From a seller, Todd in Central KY JULY 2015
- “We would work with Sandy Allnut again and very much plan to refer her to friends and family. Sandy was consistently readily available with answers to questions and concerns at all times of the day. She consistently responded patiently and professionally, oftentimes educating us in the process.Sandy Allnut is warm, pleasant, sharp and highly professional. We feel confident in referring her to others.” From a buyer, Rob of Lexington, KY JULY 2015

- “Lisa is amazing. She considers everything you’re looking for and finds it within your budget! She is the best and we will use her in the future!” From a buyer, Danielle + Jeff in Lexington, KY
- “Lisa was everything and more than we could have dreamed of in a Realtor. As this was our first time purchasing a home, she made this stressful experience as least stressful as possible and very enjoyable. Lisa was honest, met all of our needs, worked with our difficult working schedules, treated us as if we were her own, and was all around amazing. She answered my million and one questions with an immediate response. She kept in touch with us throughout the entire process and reminded us of all the little things the inspection, closing, appraisal, etc all takes. She even worked with us while she was away on a personal vacation! This is true devotion and dedication! I would recommend her to anyone who was looking to buy or sell a home. I will no doubt use her in the future and I will gladly recommend her to my friends and family! Please let her know how appreciated she is! She is an awesome asset to the Rector Hayden team! Thanks Lisa! Thanks for making our dream home become a reality!” From a buyer, L.M. in Lexington, KY
