I live in a 1976 ranch style house that had not been well maintained or updated (original siding…read moreand gutters, dated fixtures and cabinets, awful carpet throughout). I've been slowly repairing, maintaining, and upgrading everything in the house as time and resources allowed, but I needed some extra cash for some of the larger projects around the home. I was directed by two coworkers that had used Venture in the past with great success, so I met with Tony Benallo and we discussed my options. I ended up with a mortgage that was about $200 a month more than I had been paying, but my credit cards and two home improvement loans were paid off entirely, saving me several hundred dollars a month at a much better interest rate. My mortgage insurance was also eliminated. Diane Tappy helped me through the entire process, and while doing anything involving a mortgage or refinance isn't entirely fun, it was relatively painless thanks to her expertise. I would absolutely recommend Venture to anyone looking to refinance their home. Tony and Diane helped me find what was right for me, and I'm excited to finish the remodel thanks to them.

Buying or selling a home can be incredibly stressful--and we were doing both at the same time--but Brian and Jennifer made the entire process feel manageable and even enjoyable :) They were efficient, responsive, and went above and beyond at every step. They advocated for our needs, negotiated fairly and strategically, and always had our best interests at heart. There were moments when the process got overwhelming, and they were there--not just as realtors, but as compassionate partners--listening with patience, sympathy, and grace. They basically held our hands through it all. More than just great realtors, they're genuinely kind-hearted people. You can tell they love what they do, and they care deeply about the people they work with. We are incredibly grateful for them and would recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and truly thoughtful real estate team.

My husband and I were referred to Grover from a trusted friend while purchasing a new home…read more He was very informative throughout the entire process and he always made himself available for questions throughout the process. Due to the crazy housing market, we bought the new home before selling our existing home, which creates an interesting debt ratio and Grover informed us that underwriters would be happier if we sold our cheaper car (or paid it off). We actually ended up selling our more expensive car that we planned to sell before moving anyway, but the dealership dragged their feet starting the process (first party dealership relative to the finance company). This created a headache for Grover's team because the car financing was left open due to the incredible slowness of the dealership (it took over three weeks for the car loan to be closed out and over a month to get paid!), but he worked with us to get an exception letter for the underwriters. Unrelated lesson learned: pay off the car, then sell it, if time matters and you have the resources. Ultimately, we plan to use Grover again the next time that we move.

Luckily, Jim was very patient with us through this process and took us to see as many homes as we needed, helping us to navigate the pros and cons of each. As soon as we found our "perfect" home, Jim was able to list our current house and get it under contract immediately; unfortunately, that buyer got cold feet and terminated. Thankfully, Jim was able to quickly find another capable buyer who agreed to close quickly and provide free possession after closing for 10 days after the sale.

Jim started out by marketing and performing multiple open houses to attract buyers. We had our house "under contract" and then the buyer backed out at the last minute. We'd had interest over the time while the house was on the market - Jim reached out and was able to obtain THREE offers, in one day. They competed against each other and we eventually sold to a cash buyer that was willing to close in 12 days. Jim made the process seamless and was very responsive; I'd recommend Jim Merrion to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy agent - who has your best interests in mind. Too bad Yelp only allows for five stars.

This was not a great experience. Initially, I contacted Aaron, the owner, to replace a basement…read moreshower door, after the - likely original - shower stall door started to come off its framing, before my neighborhood handyman (who charges less than half of Aaron's day rate) fixed it. I regret that I didn't simply leave the situation there, keep my old shower stall door/frame kit, and save $1K. However, at the time (June 2024), I had high hopes that Aaron could become my general contractor, for me to eventually hire to renovate my kitchen & bathrooms upstairs. So I hired him to test him, with 5 specific projects: 1) Basement Shower Stall Door/Frame: - Given I was a new homeowner, I had no idea what I was doing, told him as much, and asked for his help. I measured the shower stall, told him some ideas of that for which I was looking, and - given he's a General Contractor, who told me he's originally from New Jersey, and was hired to renovate an entire house in Mill Valley, CA (posh NorCal) during the pandemic, I mistakenly trusted him. He told me to find shower stall kits on HomeDepot.com, have it delivered to the store, then he'd pick it up at the store in his truck, and remove my old shower stall door/frame. What he failed to do was verify the kit I sent him - before ordering - matched the measurements, after I specifically asked for his guidance/help, and he offered to help me. Then - worse yet - he was unethical, unlike my neighborhood handyman, as he never told me during the install that it was the wrong measurement / size, for that shower, installed it anyway, removed my old shower door/frame/kit, without discussing this with me, told me to get out of his way and go upstairs and "trust him," then I realized after he left that it was the wrong size. Worse yet? He removed the tile, grout, caulk, and new paint, and when I contacted him to fix it in June 2024 - before my July 2024 Breast Cancer Diagnosis, hence the delay - he never replied to come fix it. 2) Crawl Space Access Door: - Same goes for this. He told me he has a jigsaw, so he could fix the wood frame and install the door properly around it, that I'd already purchased through my HVAC contractor, only to leave the wood in piece meal around it, allowing bugs to enter my home, which was the entire point of his work. Then he sloppily sprayed fire foam around it, and it looks significantly worse than if I'd just hired my neighborhood handyman with a day rate less than half of Aaron's to do it, in the first place, who I now need to hire to fix it, including creating a wooden frame with a proper fit, flush screws, and a cement bottom, to match the wall. My handyman quoted me $187.50 for 1.5-hours for this specific project. 3) Bedroom Vent: - When my HVAC technician moved one of the vents in my primary bedroom, the base board needed to be patched, as well as the carpet. Aaron bought the wrong base board at the wrong Home Improvement shop, told me that was the only option, only for my neighborhood handyman to tell me - yet again - that Aaron was wrong/lied to me, and that my current baseboard is still replaceable with an exact match, so yet again, I need to hire my neighborhood handyman to fix Aaron's work. 4) Kitchen Calendar Wall Hook: - I know this was simple, but while he was here, I thought he could help me make this more secure, but - yet again - my neighborhood handyman had to re-do it. 5) Flag Anchor Front Porch: - Yet again this was done with the wrong hardware, that was not aesthetically pleasing, so my neighborhood handyman re-did it. Overall, it's not just the fact that Aaron's rate was near double my neighborhood handyman, it's not just the fact that he made numerous mistakes, after reassuring me I could trust him, as I told him these were test projects for bigger scale work, it's the fact of how Aaron handled the mistakes, by ignoring me, hiding the shower door mistake, and refusing to fix the mistakes, over 1-year later. Whereas, my neighborhood handyman has made mistakes before, and he owns up to them, and fixes them without any issues. We're all human. :)
