I honestly don't think you're going to find anyone better than Talya in Truckee area…read more We partnered with Talya to sell our home in Tahoe Donner. End result was we went with an offer above our estimated sale range which was great. But the process was very enjoyable as well. Talya did a great job staging our home and recommending certain updates to solve for as high a sale price as possible. When the multiple offers came in, she was a great thought partner to gameplan how to negotiate with each potential buyer. The overall process was incredibly smooth and professional, we trusted her along the way, and we got a great outcome we were extremely happy with. Exactly what you want in an agent.

Working with John was excellent. I interviewed him along with other agents. He was a straight…read moreshooter - no BS. He came prepared. He told me what I should list the property for (which was $100K more than others suggested). He told me what would happen for the next 10 days. Over the next week, he did exactly as he told me: cleaned house, fixed garden, got inspections done, etc. He told me he'd try to sell it for a higher price before it was even listed. Well, he did! He sold it before it was listed for a price higher than we were planning to list it for. All cash offer. Couldn't be happier with the process and the result. I'm so happy with him that I'm taking him to dinner this weekend!

We were looking to buy a property in Truckee and found John through Yelp, where he had outstanding…read morereviews. Those 5 star reviews were absolutely spot on. John knows the Truckee/Tahoe market inside/out and brings an unmatched level of experience, honesty, patience and professionalism. He is incredibly responsive (often within minutes), highly organized and never pushy. We felt that he was always operating on our timeline and looking out for our best interests rather than just trying to close a deal. Since we live in the Bay Area and couldn't always see homes in person, John made the process easy by taking detailed videos and clearly walking us through the pros and cons of each property. He was also extremely accommodating with our schedule whenever we needed to come up to Tahoe. On several occasions, when we thought we found the right house, John gave us honest guidance on why it might not be the best fit and he was right every time. He knew what would work for us even better than we did. His support continued well after closing. John helped us navigate the practical realities of owning a remote home in the snow, everything from snow removal services to maintenance planning and even coordinated access for contractors and furniture deliveries when we couldn't be there. Working with John made buying a vacation home in Truckee far easier and more enjoyable than we ever expected. John comes highly recommended. Do not look any further.

Anna came highly referred to us and she exceeded our expectations. She is the utmost professional:…read morecommunicative, detail-oriented, and follows through. Anna understood our goal in finding a mountain home and demonstrated tremendous patience as we evolved from our initial goal of purchasing a townhouse in Tahoe City to identifying a dream home in Truckee. Throughout the process there were excited moments when we thought "this is it!," yet Anna was careful to point out concerns that might arise over time with respect to roof lines, sun exposure, street noise, sloped driveways, etc. Other times we thought, "we can make this work," yet thankfully we listened to Anna's skilled expertise and objectivity to prevent us from settling on a property "just to get in." Without question, Anna placed our needs and priorities first, which resulted in a trusted relationship we feel so appreciative about. We highly recommend Anna!

I interviewed three realtors and found John and Anna to have the best solutions, ideas and energy to market my high end, but not the easiest property to sell due to it's uniqueness.

Working on their team is their personal transaction coordinator, Amanda, making all the details go extremely smooth. I would highly recommend them to anyone selling or buying in the future!

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!

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.

Alison and the team at Elder Group are not just the best in the real estate business, they are the…read morebest professionals I have ever worked with in any industry. They're incredible. I have now bought 2 homes using their services, and also sold 2 homes, and wow I was blown away at how quickly and efficiently they worked, while being fully transparent and always keeping a positive "let's do this!" attitude. A+, 5 stars, flawless service, excellent outcomes. Over the summer of 2021 my fiancee and I made the decision to renovate our kitchen. In order to do so in the timeframe we wanted, I needed to sell my cabin in Tahoe. I synced with Alison to understand her thoughts on my home, the market in general, and thoughts on the future. She took time out of her day to educate me, and 24 hours later I decided to move forward. Alison's team quickly provided me with a checklist, we all split up tasks (including her team completing tasks on my behalf), and within 5 business days we were on the market! I love moving quickly and even I was blown away! Alison was able to move the house in less than a week (if you do not consider the week of wildfires). Her staging decisions were amazing and ultimately we got 3 offers, one of which stood out which we decided to move forward with. The buyer wanted to move quickly (cash and lifted contingencies), and in all of 10 days (!!!) we completed the entire checklist and closed. And to be sure, my cabin's value/listing price was probably in the bottom 50th percentile (maybe even lower) for her, and she still treated me as if I was one of her top clients. I cannot express how amazing Alison and her entire team is. When the day comes and I purchase my forever cabin in Tahoe, she's the only person I'll trust. If it's in 20 years and she's retired I'll knock on her door and beg her to come out one last time! The entire Elder Group team is amazing. THANK YOU!

A prime example was we wanted to have a professional photo set of the house, but by the time we had completed the transaction and were able to get moved in, big winter storm had hit and buried the place in snow. I contacted Alison and requested if she would consent to us using a few of the photos she had done for the listing, and she replied right away with a yes. Seriously, you can't get that kind of service. Glad to have someone so responsive and helpful even when they don't have an obligation to. Those are the types of people I am glad to do business with!

Buying a home for the first time needs a professional hardworking team but to have people who are open minded, straight forward, flexible and always keeping a friendly demeanor throughout the process is exceptional. We were blessed to not have to look for too long for our first home to buy but that didn't take away having to get our hands dirty and negotiate as well as be realistic with the transaction. Their devotion and diligence got us in our price range! Her team kept on top of what needed to be done. Including our need to revisit the house to get measurements and plan out some moving in strategies. They are organized, knowledgeable and truly exceptional at customer service. You can't go wrong with this team of rock stars! It's a no brainer to refer them to friends, family and strangers as well as going back to them for any future needs. We are forever grateful for this team! The Rutschmanns

Chris truly understands the unique dynamics of the Lake Tahoe real estate market. Their local expertise was invaluable, particularly when it came to pricing our home correctly to attract serious buyers, navigating the challenges of market volitility and coordinating with local vendors. Communication was outstanding. Chris kept us informed every single step of the way--whether it was after a showing, during the negotiation phase, or while managing complex paperwork.

The ultimate outcome speaks for itself: Chris managed to secure a fantastic offer, selling our property to a strong buyer with favorable terms. Their negotiation skills were clearly top-notch, and we felt completely supported and advocated for throughout the closing process.
