Why even bother writing a review? That has been been my default for the last few years. Well, if…read moreanyone deserves a five-star review it is Steve and Heather for having done an outstanding job in selling our home. Not only have they guided us through each step with great professionalism, communication and care for details, they also provided a top-notch presentation of our home, which resulted in immediate offers above asking price. In contrast to other brokers who were solely focused on Dollar per sq/ft numbers and "comps", Heather and Steve 'got' our home from the start and were able to sell it well above the estimates the other brokers gave us. We simply could not have made a better choice! If we could, we would give them a bonus star for also just being awesome people.

What stood out most was how well they worked together as a team--it really felt like we had double the support. Their communication was always clear and timely, and they were quick to answer any questions we had along the way. Even in today's market, they were able to get our home sold in just a few days! We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Too Long, Didn't Read summary - Zac is great and super happy we went with him to sell our home!…read more First off, I recommend everyone searching for a realtor to buy or list to meet with multiple realtors as part of any good due diligence in a transaction as large as purchasing or selling your home or other property. That being said, I met with 6 different realtors in the Sacramento area in preparation of getting my home ready to sell and 100% pleased we chose Zac! Zac was flexible during our first interaction where he walked the property and provided a lot of value on day 1 - spending 1-2hrs with me to answer questions about the process, his role in the process, and his willingness to engage or disengage to my personal preference for level of involvement. Throughout the entire make-ready process for listing the home, Zac was available to baby step us through each hurdle and provided guidance and tips on how to approach. Importantly, Zac's marketing and pricing strategy is both aggressive and realistic. Many realtors may try to lowball their quoted estimated sale price to manage expectations, but Zac came in at the higher end of the range, but also mentioned the reality of how market conditions are and what can change. Ultimately we sold at exactly what he thought we could get, even with the competitive buyers market we sold in! Zac is also very detail & data oriented, so not only has a 'local pulse' on the area, he is also tracking a lot of the data on the MLS for activity, and I'd constantly receive update emails about a new listing coming out or a listing that just went into escrow or closed that would be relevant datapoints for our sale. It was very clear that Zac was paying attention to us and our listing and ensuring best execution and sales price for us at the end of the day. If you made it to the end of this review, I'm glad you did - and don't think you can go wrong trusting Zac and his team!

We expected that most real estate agents can sell your house but Zac goes way above that and was amazing at all the little details, which makes all the difference.

He addressed all our concerns, and always responded in a timely manner.

Valisa has helped me sell a rather difficult house to sell. She not only did it pleasantly and…read moreprofessionally, she got multiple offers and a higher than asking price. This is the fourth home I have sold as I have moved around and she is by far the best realtor I have worked with. Prior to hiring her, I talked with three of her previous clients. All were huge fans. They all told separate stories of how Valisa had provided exceptional care and service. I know she is one of the top producers in the biggest office of one of the most successful realty companies in the country. That only happens if you are exceptionally good at what you do. Frankly, I am confused over some of these one star ratings since they are the polar opposite of what I have observed and experienced. I noticed one of these "reviewers" joined just before writing her negative review - her only she has posted on Yelp. Is this legitimate or someone with another agenda going Yelp bashing? I am beyond happy with the work she has done. Now that she has helped with the sale of this house, I will have her help in the hunt for the new one. There are a lot of realtors out in the Granite Bay, El Dorado Hills areas. There are very few true professionals. Valisa is one of the real pros.

That meant finding a real estate agent to help us find the right house. After a good deal of online research, we decided to go with Jay Friedman. It is very obvious to us why Jay is a top agent with so many fantastic reviews. He is very attuned to finding exactly what his clients want. He quickly zeroed in on what we considered to be top priorities. The houses he showed us fit the bill perfectly. He was able to point out things in the houses that were of concern or that needed attention, so that there would be no surprises. He stayed in contact with us, was very responsive, answered questions quickly and was able to give us recommendations on qualified vendors in the area. Once we found the house that we wanted to be our "forever home" we gave him the green light. His deep knowledge and many years of experience made this new home purchase super easy for us. We highly recommend Jay for anyone seeking to purchase a home in Placer or Sacramento counties. You can't go wrong with Jay. That's for sure.

She was thorough, professional, on top of everything, incredibly patient and flexible, and offered great advice on how to assess various houses and how to proceed with negotiations.

My parents were able to buy a great house within a couple of weeks of starting their search, and Kim was there every step of the way and even after they moved in. Moreover, she even connected them to a great agent in the Bay Area to sell their house simultaneously. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and effective realtor in the area!

So about two years ago when I was still in the market for a house to purchase, I started looking in…read morethe Sacramento area and was referred to Kim Nicols as a great real estate agent to try. After perusing a few houses and the neighborhoods they were in, Kim suggested maybe looking in Placer county in the Rocklin/Roseville/Folsom area. And that's what we did.......for the next 6 months...... Kim was really patient throughout this whole process and due to our pickiness (it is a HOUSE after all....) we must have looked at over 30 properties before finding the house that I now own. She was very helpful in not only assisting me with finding the right loan agent, but also getting me set up with the title company, providing me a list of #s and contacts for local utilities, and just being there whenever I have any questions. I still to this day bug her from time to time with some question or other and she's never too busy to get back to me. If your in the market for a new home, definitely give Kim a try. You won't regret it.

I would recommend Mark in a heartbeat to anyone. I could have sworn I wrote a glowing review when…read moreMark helped us buy our house in El Dorado Hills. But apparently I never did and I feel bad about that since the experience was so outstanding. Incredibly patient and knowledgeable and we toured a lot of houses to find the right home. He applied the right amount of caution and advice for homes that needed it while giving us the flexibility to make up our minds. He is very well connected with other agents and service providers and whatever we needed just seemed like it happened like magic through him. In short, exactly what you want from a realtor. Well flash forward 4+ years and we are selling this house and would never have even considered calling someone else. We have a lot of balls in the air at the moment and we're a little stressed about getting things ready, but as soon as he was involved it was like a weight lifted.

When something came up, he stayed calm and explained the options clearly so we could actually decide instead of guessing. What stood out most was that he treated both deals with the same care. Selling and buying at the same time is a lot, and he handled the moving pieces so we didn't have to chase anyone down. We always knew what was happening next. If you want a realtor who listens, stays patient when the process gets messy, and actually follows through, Mark is the one we'd recommend without hesitation.
