Greg had our best interest in mind on a couple of the properties we looked at, and after a couple of long months of searching, we found a home that suited us beautifully. I know there are hundreds of realtors in our area, some of which you hear on the radio on almost an hourly basis... But I'm glad we went with "the guy" rather than "the company" in this case. We now consider Greg a friend of our family. Many thanks my friend! And God Bless You!

I worked with Irene Voronel when it came time to buy my first home. I don't have much to compare…read moreto, since this was my first time working with an agent myself, but my dad was also a real estate agent for many years, so I know how painful real estate deals can be... but Irene really made the whole process as painless as possible. She made herself available anytime we had questions and needed to talk to her. Irene was always honest and forthcoming about the situation and had a great way of soothing my worry-prone partner's qualms in a sincere and straightforward manner. She was friendly and professional, and seemed to know just what we wanted, even when we didn't! (lol) She really knows her stuff, but on those rare occasions she didn't, she made no hesitation in finding out what we needed to know. The best part is--we found a fantastic home that we love!

If you are searching for a realtor that you can trust do NOT use Kendra Barraza. Our experience was…read morebeyond being able to trust her. She secretly went behind our backs and directly called our lender, who I told her who we use and told her we won't be able to sell our property, Kendra wanted us to use her lender which we did not want to use because we have used our lender before. Thank God she showed her true colors before we signed a contract for her to list our property for sale and buy another property. She did not think I would be told what she had done. Pure evil to try and get what she wanted!!!!

Kendra made the whole buying and selling process incredibly easy for us with all the work she put into everything and was always on top of the things which needed to get done.

Janie and Rachael were absolutely a joy to work with and they landed me in my first home (and dream…read morehome)! They really listened to what I was looking for, were cognizant of my financial limitations yet allowed me to dream big, and were so patient in answering my thousands of questions as a first-time home buyer. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd be able to buy a house in this economy (much less in Tahoe), and yet Janie found "the one" for me and helped me navigate such a complicated process with grace and patience. Even my neighbors knew how great she was, as she helped them buy their homes, too. I've been in my house for over a year now and I'm just as thankful and giddy as Day 1. Even after buying the home, Janie and her team have been helpful -- recommending trusted handymen, plow services, designers, and other local workers over the past year. Highly recommend the whole Sharp team for anyone and everyone looking for a home in Tahoe!

She is a fantastic communicator and always goes above and beyond for her clients. We just purchased a home in Truckee and this is the fourth transaction we've done with Kristi and we couldn't have been happier with the process. I have done more than 25 real estate transactions in my life and I always trust Kristi and her team to do things exceptionally well and help make the transaction as smooth as possible. I also want to shout out Rachael as well. Rachael was absolutely amazing and helped through the entire transaction and beyond. They are a fantastic asset to the Truckee community and if you're looking to buy or sell, Kristi is your Realtor! We have bought and sold with her and I enjoy the process every time.

At each step in the process Liza Bradley was committed to excellence. She will sell your home…read morequickly, but you must trust her. I typically do not write reviews, but the outstanding service I received from my Realtor, Liza Bradley, calls for an exception. I'm a consultant and live in New Mexico. So when my mother moved to Europe and tasked me to put her Reno house on the market, the task of selling her home felt daunting, until I met Liza, that is. Liza, who grew up in the Reno area, is an extremely friendly and positive person and understands Reno real estate. I consider myself fortunate that she accepted the challenge to change my preconceived and outdated notions of the steps involved in putting a home on the market. Liza helped me understand that, for a home to sell without lingering on the market indefinitely, I would have to trust HER to properly price the home based on her extensive market research and extraordinary experience, and show the home move-in ready, meaning: - All unnecessary furniture, personal property, and yard clutter is removed. - A home inspection is performed to identify any issues that could potentially derail a pending offer. - All repairs deemed necessary by Liza are completed and documented. - A fresh coat of paint is applied where Liza feels it is necessary. -The home is professionally cleaned. - The timing for putting the home on the market is appropriate. Liza and her colleague spent an entire day shopping for plants and items to highlight the potential of the home. This went far above and beyond providing merely curb appeal. I now understood why she suggested to delay putting the home on the market until Memorial Day. The neighborhood had awoken from a long winter, meaning the lawns were a lush green, the trees in my yard and in the neighborhood were in full bloom, and it wasn't too cold or too hot for the beautiful flowers she planted. Liza's hard work and perfect timing for putting the home on the market resulted in over five offers on the first day of showing the home, and additional competitive offers the following day. This is when Liza's negotiation skills became invaluable. She guided me through the offers and sacrificed evenings with her family to help me understand and accept the best offer based on buyer qualifications. To sum it up, Liza's real estate knowledge and experience, combined with her professional and patient approach, turned what could have been a stressful event into a smooth and financially successful process. I highly recommend Liza and her team to anyone looking for top-notch real estate services.

I was a first-time homebuyer and the thought of buying my own house came with a lot of…read moreapprehension. My apprehension was quickly put to rest when I first contacted Amy regarding buying a house. Amy was prompt in responding and set up an initial meeting to ask me about my requirements. In our first meeting, Amy explained that she runs her real estate business with her mom, Janet and her dad, Jerry - together known as The Wallin Team. After meeting with the Wallins, I left with the feeling that I have made a right choice to have them help me search for my dream home. The Wallins bring professionalism and knowledge to the table along with their friendly smile and expert advice on real estate. From the very beginning, the Wallins maintained an open and prompt line of communication. All of my questions were answered by one of the Wallins within 1-2 hours via text or email. The Wallins were ready to meet me for showings within hours of notice and made me their priority. Though I am sure they had several other clients they were working with, they always made me feel as if I am their priority. What impressed me the most was how well they treated me and how passionately all three of them got involved in my search for a dream house. Janet did a great job explaining each of the steps in details and exceeding my expectations in terms of the timeline. The Wallins had prepared a binder that was broken down in easy to understand section explaining the process and methodology of a house buying process. This was a very helpful resource. They took a lot of hassle and headache out for me as we moved along the process and Amy even came in on her birthday for the house inspection just to ensure all goes smoothly. My house closed on time and without any roadblocks. Thanks to their amazing guidance throughout the process. The Wallins offer one-of-a-kind service and now, I have new-found appreciation for real estate agents. I can't thank Janet and the Wallins enough for making one of the biggest steps in my life such a seamless process. I highly recommend their Real Estate services and expertise. Thanks again for everything you guys did for me and my family. I would definitely be recommending my friends and family to your team.

Carrie, and her associate Stacey Berger, are an awesome realty team! We used Carrie to purchase our…read morefirst home back in 2015 when the local market was just starting to get really crazy. Being first time home buyers, we had no idea what to expect but Carrie was super helpful throughout the whole process and so patient! She put up with my incessant calling and questions and was always quick to move on scheduling a house tour--and if she wasn't available Stacey was--we always got into homes the day of or next morning of our request, which is absolutely key in a hot market! We probably looked at at least 15 homes and I was honestly near giving up because home buying is a seriously exhausting process in a sellers market, but Carrie thankfully insisted we continue on--because she knew prices were only continuing to rise--and showed us some homes in an awesome neighborhood I had never even seen before. And finally after 15 or some home tours we decided to put in our first ever offer on a house in that neighborhood ...and we got it! We absolutely have Carrie to thank for that because there were multiple competing offers and she helped us make our offer more competitive to the seller. We never felt pressured by our realtor(s) during the whole buying process and always felt the Kester-Berger team was on our side. Carrie really helped us figure out what we wanted since we really had no idea going in and I appreciated her straight forward attitude. She also knew a lot about home repairs/conditions which was invaluable when looking at homes. Carrie even helped us resolve some outstanding seller repair issues well after closing which was very appreciated! We will definitely be using them again if we ever decide to sell--although we absolutely love our home still so don't expect to be selling anytime soon!

The process of selling your home and purchasing another is already stressful but moving to a…read moredifferent state in which you are not familiar and do it in a short time frame is very challenging. Caren helped us make the transition from California to Reno as smooth as possible because of her real estate expertise and her knowledge of the Reno area. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to be the "calm in the midst of the storm" are some reasons why we recommend Caren Christen. For example, she consistently kept us updated and always did what she said she was going to do. We never had to worry about details slipping through the cracks. She also chose reputable businesses to do inspections and was present when we couldn't make the trip to Reno. When it seemed impossible to find a good appraiser to do an appraisal in a short time frame, she was able to pull it off. Caren is also empathetic and supportive when we were finding it overwhelming to deal with all we had to do in order to move. We are very fortunate to have had her as our realtor and highly recommend her to anyone looking to move to the Reno area. She knows her "stuff" and gets things done - always with a professional demeanor. We will definitely choose Caren when and if we move again.

Stacey grew up in the area and knows it like the back of her hand and she provides a full service experience like you've never had before. I get all the benefits of the personal attention of a smaller firm but with a larger nationally known firm behind it. Yes, it's the best of both worlds!!! Stacey takes care of everything and is an unbelievable partner in the entire experience. It's now a week after my sale and she still assisting me. If you are looking to buy or sell a home in the Reno area you're a fool not to use Stacey and her partner Carrie. they are simply the best!

Stacey is only interest was in finding the perfect home to meet our needs not a quick sale and she was patient throughout the whole process she knew what we were looking for and when she found it she called me and help me get it I couldn't ask for anything more.
