Review written by my wife Michelle who worked with Heidi to sell a trust property:…read more "We had the absolute pleasure of working with Heidi Bonham with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Oak Valley, to sell our trust property, and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, Heidi was exceptional. She went above and beyond in every aspect of the process, consistently finding ways to make what could have been a very stressful situation feel manageable and supported. Selling a trust property comes with its own unique challenges, and in our case, we were also navigating cash-for-keys agreements with multiple long-term tenants. Heidi handled this with professionalism, compassion, and incredible patience. One thing that really stood out was how much she genuinely cared about everyone involved. She even took the extra step of providing apartment rental listings to one of our tenants who had lived on the property for over 30 years. She did this entirely on her own time, without charging us or the tenants. Heidi was also very mindful and respectful of the sensitive family dynamics involved, especially considering some of the complexities with beneficiaries. She navigated everything with discretion, empathy, and a steady hand, which made a huge difference for us. She also came with an incredible network of resources and was always ready with trusted referrals for things like junk removal, gardening, and other property needs, which was immensely helpful. If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, responsive, compassionate, and truly invested in her clients, Heidi Bonham is the one you want. We are so grateful for her support and expertise throughout this entire process. Highly, highly recommend!".

I followed her recommendations and they worked. Open house on Saturday and Sunday, accepted the best offer the next day. Closing done on the target date as scheduled.

Very knowledgeable, very professional, always happy to help. Experience matters. Sold my house more than my expectation.

We can't speak highly enough of our experiences with Denise Wendland. In every way, we were…read morefortunate to have someone who partnered with us to achieve: - Sale of our home at Full Asking Price. - Listed and Under Contract within 15 Days. - Aggressively resolved issues with Buyers/Appraisal/H&S Repairs. To note, when we listed our sale with Denise, there were four other homes within the neighborhood for sale. These other homes were more or less identical to ours and had been listed for over 60 to 130 days. For me, I was worried that our home would never sell without steep asking price reductions based on the inventory. I listened to her recommendation, for the listing price, and reviewed her market comp analysis, which was expertly written. Her list price garnered immediate interest from Buyers and we were soon under contract, within 15 days of listing. Moreover, as issues arose, she would call to not just inform me about what was going on, but, with information about what she was already doing to fix it. That's one of the many great qualities about Denise. When there is an issue or something that needs doing, she is already two steps ahead of it. You don't have to ask her to do anything; you can trust her to know that she's already working on what you need. You can see her professionalism in everything that she does. The photography and staging of the home are meticulous. Of all the listings in the area, her photographs were second to none. In fact, the way she presented our home looked so good, that even I was shocked at how nice the place could look. In screening buyers, she is sharp and reviews everything in detail. Moreover, our transaction had some complex issues that almost arose concerning the appraisal (our buyers were using a VA loan) as well as some required health and safety repairs. I cannot begin to explain the sharpness, determination, and professionalism of how she dealt with everything. Issues that I know would have killed a deal, for any other realtor, were quickly and deftly dealt with by Denise. Most importantly, she handled every issue in such a way that it never affected our bottom-line/net proceeds. I have given a lot of thought to all the work she put into this and it really is exceptional what she achieved. Denise Wendland is a true partner, advisor, and real estate expert. We are repeat customers of hers and, in every deal, she has helped our family achieve the financial goals we set out on. Moreover, she has exceeded all of our expectations. Did I mention that our sale price is the new high, for the neighborhood? That's how great she is.

Denise Wendland is a fantastic real estate agent!…read more We just sold a rental home in San Jacinto. We chose Denise to handle the sale based on her excellent Yelp reviews, and she did an absolutely wonderful job! We have been landlords for many years, and we have learned that the key to selling a home is to find the best realtor in the area. We live in San Diego, and we didn't know anyone in the Hemet-San Jacinto area, so we did what we always do when out-of-town: consult Yelp! Denise has excellent reviews, of course; we read every one. We first phoned Denise on New Years Eve and made an appointment to walk through the property with her. She immediately sent us a market analysis of comps to help with pricing. When we met Denise at the house, we were impressed with her knowledge and professionalism. Having rented the home for years, we were uncertain as to what upgrades or repairs might be needed, so we really appreciated having her point out what needed attention and what didn't. It did need a little cleaning; we asked if she knew anyone we could call. She arranged the carpet cleaning for us, and she cleaned some special items herself! She explained "that's how I run my business": definitely "above and beyond"! Thank you so much, Denise! Denise did some nice staging and had beautiful photos taken for the listing. She made the house sparkle! We really appreciated her attention to detail. A week later we accepted a solid offer at over listing price! Denise handled all the inspections, arranged some termite remediation work, and kept everything moving along. All the while, she kept us informed by email, phone and text. All paperwork was handled digitally, except notarization of closing docs, which we handled in San Diego, so we never needed to make another trip to Hemet (a three-hour round trip for us). We have never had a sale go as smoothly and easily as this one! Denise, thank you so much!

It was early on in our home search and we had a lot of questions about different areas of the desert. Being in town only for the weekend, we asked if she could show us a house in Palm Desert the next morning. She made it happen. The trust was immediate and we knew Christine was the realtor for us. We made our wants and don't wants very clear. Our main priority was our two cats and making sure they were as stress free as possible. After more searching, we found our home in the Mountain Gate neighborhood. We had Christine list our Orange County home and make an offer in Palm Springs. We did not want an open house or a sign in our yard and she worked around our requests. Selling and buying is stressful, but Christine did all the heavy lifting and made the process smooth. She is organized, sharp, and relentless. We highly recommend Christine Anderson and appreciate everything she did for us.

That includes coming up with solutions and executing them when we ran into stumbling blocks from either the city, the county, or even the buyer.

That week i was searching high n low for homes in places i didn't even want to go and rent was outrageous. I said screw it and found a lender and got a pre approval AND found a realtor all that week this realtor didn't ask me a thing about my family or showed any concern for me or my levels of stress. I was in tears, not only frustration but lack of knowledge and fear of following through with BUYING our first home. My husband and I decided to look for a non referral from friends and look through here ourselves(YELP). I wanted someone who was a hustler like me and someone to take some of the load of stress off my shoulders This is how I found Katie. I immediately called her and what a ray of light I got. She calmed me and actually asked ME about my family, about my needs, about my hopes and dreams. At the end of our long conversation she said "hey are you available tomorrow morning" I was thinking for what??? And she said I have 4 or so houses I'd love for you to see. One of those homes were EVERYTHING I've been looking for and more. So again all within a week and a half we were in escrow.

Not only does she have over two decades experience which made me confident in her abilities, but she patiently and graciously put up with my fears and moments of panic. She clearly explained every step of the process, so I would know exactly what to expect. However, there were unexpected issues that arose (from the other parties) and Dawn navigated me through all that frustration as well. For instance, the buyer of my previous home used an appraiser who was evacuated for several days due to a fire, and no one had any contact with him. To say I was worried is an understatement! The appraisal report that we thought would take a few days, took weeks. But Dawn communicated with me every day, and kept me updated...as well as reasonably calm. Another example happened a week after moving into my current house, when there was a major plumbing issue which no one could have predicted. Dawn helped me through that fiasco, although her “job” as my realtor was technically complete. And this was on a holiday weekend! She is a treasure, and I honestly don’t think I could have gotten through everything without her guidance. I anticipated Dawn would be a good realtor, due to her extensive experience...but never did I expect she would assume so many additional roles which kept me from losing my mind. I cannot recommend Dawn highly enough, and encourage everyone to meet with her and see for yourself just how incredible she is!

She immediately scheduled a professional photographer to take pictures of our home for the online and print marketing -- the pictures and flyers came out beautifully, and our home sold the first weekend on the market! From when we first met her, Dawn was always very upfront with information and didn't promise anything that she could not deliver. She worked diligently through the sale and escrow process and kept us up-to-date every step of the way. We felt so confident in our professional relationship with Dawn that, when our potentially new home fell out of escrow, we asked Dawn to assist us in finding a replacement property with only limited time left before escrow was due to close on the sale of our home. She went out of her way to be available in our search and always came prepared with all the relevant property information. She was instrumental in our ability to find a wonderful new home to purchase in a community that we love! Throughout the entire process of selling and purchasing, we felt that Dawn was truly looking out for our best interests; she was always professional, gracious, resourceful, and devoted to us, her customers. We highly recommend Dawn Henry for your real estate needs -- you will be in great hands!
