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!

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!

It pains me to write this, but the bottom line here is that what Sima did, or more importantly…read moredidn't do, hurt us horrifically and could hurt others, too. The quick of it is: Sima did not do comps prior to listing our home. She overpriced it and then wanted to drop it dramatically 13 days in. When we attempted to address numerous issues with her, we kept getting "I thought we were friends". Um, we can be friendly, but no, this is business. Instead of focusing on saleable elements, Sima recommended repairs and replacements on items that, in the grand scheme of it, were completely unjustified. She knew the curb appeal would be critical, yet we spent 10 hours with her handyman swapping out 4 hard water stained toilets instead. We don't sell houses for a living and, to our detriment, relied upon her expertise to guide us which, in hindsight, we should have questioned. But isn't that why you're paying that commission? Hiring a professional? The day after the contract expired, shortly after our first responder went to sleep, there was a knock at the door followed by the turn of a key and someone calling into the foyer. It was an agent saying he had an appointment. Behind him were his clients. According to him he reached out to Sima the day before to schedule the viewing. She failed to notify me and failed to inform him that the contract would be expired. The agent was very kind and left with his clients, leaving the key from the lockbox with me. When I texted Sima instructing her to remove the signage and lockbox immediately, she said it would have to be the following day. I firmly said no, it would have to be immediately. [See text messages herein] The story doesn't end there. We since learned that Sima had slandered us and have recorded evidence. We question her ethics as she proved to be grossly negligent at a number of levels. If you are considering using her to broker your home, we highly encourage you to look elsewhere. Chico is inundated with brokers.

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!

I am very grateful and fortunate to have had Dustin on my side during this process. Dustin was referred to me by a friend and from the get go, has managed to impress me with his steadfast and tireless work ethic. He is quite thorough and will stop at nothing to ensure that his client is receiving the highest level of service. I've found Dustin to be extremely knowledgeable when it came to the local market, kind, and very patient with my myriad questions. He made the remote buying process a breeze and was able to creatively negotiate with the seller to where I was able to secure a purchase price UNDER asking - which is almost unheard of in this current market. I can't wait to enjoy many years in my new home, but when I'm ready to buy or sell in the future, I'll know exactly who to call. Thanks, Dustin and team! You have a customer for life.
