An Exceptional Real Estate Professional…read more Kristi Taylor is, without question, the most outstanding real estate broker I have ever had the privilege of working with. My mother was a broker, so I have a good understanding of what it takes to be truly exceptional in this profession, and Kristi is in a class of her own. Throughout our transaction, Kristi worked tirelessly on our behalf. Her knowledge of real estate is remarkably deep, and she brings an extraordinary level of experience, attention to detail, and professionalism to everything she does. Most importantly, she is a fierce advocate for her clients, always protecting their interests and making sure they are informed, prepared, and exceptionally well represented. Her reputation is clearly recognized by her peers as well. During our transaction, several others in the industry commented to us how much they enjoyed working with Kristi and how highly they regarded her. That speaks volumes about the respect she has earned in the industry. Buying or selling a home can be stressful and complicated, but Kristi brings knowledge, determination, confidence, and genuine care to the process. We always felt that we had someone in our corner who knew exactly what she was doing and would never stop working for the best possible outcome. We cannot recommend Kristi Taylor highly enough. If you are looking for a broker who combines exceptional knowledge and professionalism with extraordinary dedication to her clients, you would be very fortunate to have Kristi representing you. She is truly top notch, and we are deeply grateful for everything she did for us.

Updated Review / Response to Kristi Taylor's Public Reply…read more After seeing Kristi's public response to my review, I felt it was necessary to post this update with supporting evidence. Her reply stated that "the individual who posted this review did not have legal authority over the sale." That statement is entirely false, and Kristi knows it. I was one of three equal legal owners of the property sold -- something clearly documented in the court filings, the title paperwork, and even in Kristi's own communications with me. Throughout the sale, Kristi was in direct contact with me about inspection reports, repair decisions, paint work, and property access. In her own text message to me, she explicitly wrote: "What you guys decide to do, will be up to all 3 of you." That one line alone disproves her public claim. Realtors do not coordinate repairs, inspections, and property updates with people who "have no legal authority." Beyond that, Kristi also misrepresented basic facts about the buyer. When I asked who purchased my family home, she told me it was "a local man/company that restores barns." The official Superior Court Order (attached below) shows the buyer was actually The Bloom Project, not the person or company Kristi described. This is a matter of public record, approved by the court on August 16, 2023, and handled through Cornerstone Title Company. Before posting this, I reached out to Kristi directly and asked her -- politely -- to remove or correct her response, explaining that it contained multiple false statements. She chose not to. I'm therefore posting this clarification only because she has shown a troubling level of comfort making blatantly inaccurate public claims about both the sale and my legal standing. Everything I've stated here is supported by written evidence: her own texts and emails, the title and escrow documentation, and court filings. I'm sharing this not out of spite, but because the truth matters -- especially when someone's professional credibility depends on honesty. I encourage anyone considering working with Kristi to review these facts carefully and make an informed decision. Additional documentation is available upon request.

Katie is the best agent I have ever had in my whole life with multiple times of purchasing…read moreproperty! I will give her 6 stars if there is 6! Here are the reasons: She helped me to find the perfect house which has view as well as pool! It's very hard to find such a nice combination in Santa Rosa. I have seen open housefor more than 6 months and saw more than 30 houses. When she had appointment with me, she is always be there on time or earlier! I had one experience with another agent who did not show on time and did not answer my call or text! Katie always treat my business as hers. She helps me find a HomeBridge finance team who also did fabulous job and make almost impossible loan to be approved on time without any delay! That was very impressive! Katie also helped me find the company to do pool inspection as well as painter and electricians who have been there with katie to estimate the cost of remodeling! This is extremely helpful for a person like me coming here from Los angles and know none in this beautiful community! There are lot more things worth of my time to write, but I don't want take too much of your time to read. Just mention one more thing which makes me believe that in a very near future, Katie will definitely become one of top agents in Sonoma county with the best quality of service she provides. The last thing I don't want to miss is that she organized and prepared a party for me in my backyard in order to make me feel welcomed and to get to know my neighbors. She prepared all food and drinks and invites my neighbors as I have been so exhausted and busy from my job. If I have more money to buy another property or If someone ask me for referral, I will have one agent in my heart, that is Katie!!!! Thank you so much Katie. You made my dream house became true.

She guided us through the process start to finish with her professionalism, communication, hard work and market knowledge, but with the same care and warmth. It's rare to find someone who is truly invested in her clients and delivers consistently exceptional service over the years, but she does exactly that. Thank you again for the support in selling our home. Highly recommend.

I am honestly not sure a 5 out of 5-star rating is enough for Rhonda--she truly deserves so much…read moremore! We first worked with Rhonda 20 years ago when she sold our house. She made that process incredibly fast and effortless, bringing in multiple offers without a hitch. So, when we recently decided to buy a new home, returning to her was the easiest decision we could have made, and she completely exceeded our expectations once again. Rhonda perfectly balances being incredibly sweet with being fiercely professional. When we found a house we originally wanted, she drafted a flawless offer. Unfortunately, the sellers decided they wanted more than their asking price, and we were crushed. Rhonda didn't miss a beat; she immediately jumped into action, pivoted, and ended up finding us our absolute dream forever home. Knowing exactly what it takes to win in this market, she crafted the perfect offer letter and fought hard to get it accepted right before the house even hit its first weekend open house. After that, she put the entire process on cruise control for us. We closed in under 3 weeks, and we barely had to lift a finger. Rhonda handled absolutely everything and went far beyond what is expected of a real estate agent to take the stress out of the process. She scheduled all of our inspections and followed up on the findings, personally took specific photos of the house to satisfy our home insurance requirements, and seamlessly set up the title and signing. She even provided us with her trusted, local contact list for a handyman, cleaning person, and appliance repair. If you want an agent who will guide you with genuine care and handle every single detail from start to finish, call Rhonda. We are so incredibly grateful to be in our forever home!

Not just any Port in a Storm…read more Buying a home in Northern California is extremely stressful -- even in the best of times -- and these are not the best of times. Coming from another state also presents a rather steep learning curve, the wood loving pests don't die here, and California has millions of confusing regulations -- laws that present the deceptive appearance of protecting you from tragedy, but mostly seem to have massively increased the amount of paperwork you are supposed to make sense of. Choosing a knowledgeable realtor to guide you through troubled waters has probably never been more important, (but not easy, considering there seem to be far more realtors than houses in this part of the world). Laurie was that safe harbor in the storm for us, and I can't recommend her enough. Not my first rodeo, as I've bought a home before and made my fair share of mistakes (watch out for massive trees next to your foundation), but since we were buying a home while living in another state, and running a business at the same time, we really needed a realtor who was going to go far above and beyond what most seem to do. We needed her to completely handle more than a few series of inspections (house, pests, well, water quality, roof, permit history, etc. etc.), and be able to make sense of those inspections. We also needed her to manage a non typical escrow and line up contractors and tradespeople we could trust. Laurie kept on top of a million balls in the air the whole time. Choose wisely friends, and choose Laurie. It's likely the most important purchase of your life.

We are very happy to have Susan as our agent to sell our personal home at Santa Rosa. We moved out…read moreof town last year and rented the property out. An experienced, honest, loyal and hard-working agent is critical for us, and Susan is such a person. She worked with the tenants so that the property could be listed quicker in the market. She worked with all the contractors to make the property look nice to sell. Her contractors did excellent work for reasonable price. Since we are not onsite, she visited the property numerous times. She proactively negotiated and communicated to potential buyers and the buyer agent and kept us updated. Unlike some other real estate agents, she paid a lot attention on details herself. She resolved our concerns or answer our emails/messages with no delay. We feel safe, relaxed and confident working with Susan.

She was patient, professional, knowledgeable and unbelievably helpful throughout the entire short sale process. Sarah did everything possible to explain the steps in this long and sometimes complicated procedure. We never felt pressured from her and always felt that she had our best interests at heart. She replied to our emails and calls quickly, addressing our concerns and questions (and there were a lot) patiently. I never once felt that she didn't have time for us or that we were not a priority. You have to be able to trust your agent and feel that they are working on your behalf. Sarah has an incredible work ethic, but most of all, we trust her. Thank You!

She aggressively marketed both properties, after I made her suggested repairs, and sold them both over our asking price. Sarah was available any time I called her or she would get back to me immediately. Sarah is a great person. She actually made the experience enjoyable as she did all the work and negotiating with various buyers. She also took us around to many houses my wife and I were thinking of buying. I am going to sell my personal house soon and Sarah is the only person I would consider listing it with. I trust her to get the best price possible in the shortest time. You can't go wrong with Sarah. If she doesn't know something she tells you and she knows where to get the answers. She's great, what else can I say???
