After my father passed away, I was tasked with finding a real estate agent to help sell his home,…read moreeven though I was not local. In addition to not being local, there was a reverse mortgage on the home, so I wanted to find someone who had experience with reverse mortgages and help me determine if it was worth selling or just walking away. I did some internet searching and Sabrina came up on a few local lists. I decided to reach out to her and she immediately responded and we had a call to discuss our situation. She immediately struck me as honest, compassionate and intelligent. After she looked at the house, she sent me very detailed information about the options we had and what she would recommend. My sisters are local, and decided to bring in a few other agents after meeting Sabrina, as they wanted to ensure we were picking the right agent. After meeting a few others, they immediately let me know Sabrina was their favorite. So, we hired her! Throughout the process, she was so responsive and on top of things. We were able to sell the home quickly and efficiently, and I appreciated her communication and consultation throughout the process. She also navigated the delicate situation of me and my two sisters very well, as handling a parent's estate can be emotional and my sisters were full of questions and concerns regularly, but she was well aware as the trustee, I was the final say in certain things. I highly recommend Sabrina if you are selling a home in Chico!

She was prepared for whatever came up and always got back to me quickly with an answer whenever I had a question (there were many). I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house, her knowledge is extensive, she anticipated what might need to be done next and she followed through with everything.

Dustin made us a priority right off the bat and hit the ground running right along with us. At every turn, he met us with enthusiasm and positivity. He kept us in the loop, never let us go to bed stressed, went to bat for us countless times, and is just an all around wonderful human being. Dustin is probably one of the friendliest and most relatable people, but is also always ready to throw down for his clients to make things happen. Dustin really knows his stuff and is AMAZING at what he does, he always offered us his knowledge and advice, but also was open to all of our input and treated us as teammates. Ian and I were legitimately sad after we signed our last document because we wouldn't have as much contact with him anymore. We really did have the dream team of the home buying world and I can say with complete confidence that we would not be about to move into our dream home without them. THANK YOU!

They were very help throughout the whole process and made themselves available whenever we had questions. Dustin was awesome about making sure we were always in the know when there were updates about the purchase, and everything regarding the paper work.

She did all the leg work for us when it came time to view a property, had all the connections when it was time to do inspections, and gave us lots of great recommendations for contractor/companies to reach out to for the renovations we plan on doing. i whole heatedly recommend Dustin and Dana if you are looking to buy in the Redding/Chico area.

We don't live in the area, so Lora gave us very good advice about which neighborhoods to look at that would have what we wanted- walkable, close drive to shopping, well maintained homes, low traffic, low crime. We found a great home in Little Chico Creek Estates that had exactly what we were looking for, was mobility friendly, and move-in ready. We were able to close our sale quickly, and Lora proved to be an excellent negotiator, sticking firm to our offer price. We felt good knowing that we had someone in our corner really willing to roll up her sleeves and go to bat for us!

My last move was from Florida to Chico, CA. to be closer to family. I rented until I was more situated to a new city. Both my children went to Chico State, so I wasn't totally unfamiliar. I always loved Chico charm. My daughter recommended Megan Haimbaugh to be my Realtor since she did such an awesome job for them. I found Megan at an Open House she was hosting and introduced myself. I had a 6-month lease so I let her know I was just getting familiar with neighborhoods, etc. and what I was looking for. It would be IDEAL, I told her, if I could live close to my daughter's family. Lo and behold! Megan sent me to look at a new listing, just getting on the market that day because she said it was perfect for me. It was earlier than I was thinking, but interest rates were rising and I didn't want to lose this opportunity. It was the right price, the right size, the best yard ever and only 4 blocks from my family! Megan is terrific. She is always looking out for me, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, answered all my questions and is so easy to work with. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. My life is forever changed for the better because of her hard work and dedication.

She always kept me in the loop and responded quickly. She paid INCREDIBLE attention to every detail and made the whole experience feel like I was literally in an HGTV episode. What truly sets her apart is how much she GENUINELY CARES, which is RARE these days. She's not just an "agent", she's a true FRIEND who VALUES the relationship. She respected that finding the right home can take time (we actually met almost 2 years ago, and JUST CLOSED on April 10th of this year!). She stayed patient, supportive, and on top of everything the whole way through. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is AUTHENTIC, CARING, and truly invested in you and your home search, I HIGHLY recommend Angie!! I promise you will NOT find someone better!!!!!

Becky Prater is steady, professional, generous, super fun, connected, and in the know…read more A year and a half ago, my spouse and I started looking to downsize, and not only did Becky come highly recommended, but also she really impressed us with her knowledge and affability when we talked. She started guiding us on how to prep our house for sale and began to show us what was on the market. Long story short, after Becky had worked so hard to get us what we wanted, we walked out on an offer at the last minute of contingency. She was so gracious and lovely about it! When we got ready (again) about a year after that, Becky was ready to help us again and NEVER said word one about how we had left her at the altar the last time. This time around we found a fixer-upper by the park immediately, and our realtor recommended several professionals to contribute to our remodel when it seemed that nobody was available. She got our large house sold, after much work and lowering of our expectations, paying for some of the buyer-requested repairs herself to get the deal done. Through all of this, her sunny personality and down to earth honesty kept us going when we needed a boost. Becky is still supporting us now, after we have owned our new house for three months! She knows just about everyone in this town. Thanks, Becky!

That has to tell you they are doing something right when it comes to marketing.

Each of them was hand picked for their savvy marketing techniques, charismatic personalities, and impeccable client approval ratings.
