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.

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.

If she wasn't enough there is a whole team of amazing women working alongside her that made this process seamless as well as enjoyable. 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

I am a veteran of about six real estate deals over the years, and my experience with Ann was the…read morebest! She made every step of the way go as smoothly and painlessly as possible. She went the extra mile to arrange to show me a property that hadn't been listed yet, and when I realized that was the house I wanted to buy, her strategizing for how to get it at a fair price was extremely helpful. In addition to being very nice to work with, she is super responsive, and always addressed questions and concerns immediately. I would highly recommend Ann as a real estate agent, and I hope she's still in business when I finally decide to sell my new house, because she would be my first call.

We had a 30 day escrow and I felt like it was run by remote control with very little work on my part. Everything was easy, clearly presented and very professional. Christy really knows her stuff.

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!

If you are a seller BEWARE accepting an offer from Team Blair…read more Do you really want to do business with people who lie, cheat and try to censor honest reviews? Look at their unrecommended reviews. They create fake profiles for fake 5 star reviews which were reported and removed and they lie to try to delete negative ones. They are so desperate to censor negative reviews because their entire customer base is Bay Area people no one here will work with them. I PAID their commission and I SIGNED their agreements. That constitutes working together in CONTRACT LAW. That they represented a buyer has nothing to do with the fact that we worked together. They also have not responded once to the emails on their agent Matt Smith breaching the realtor code of conduct, being unethical and directly lying. Article 1 of their realtor code of conduct is to be HONEST with all parties, whether representing a buyer or seller. They also don't know that censoring honest reviews is actually illegal and enforceable with the FTC. They were paid on the sale of MY home because I accepted their offer and I want to share my story so you don't make the same mistake. 24 hours after acceptance we were advised to delay our sale due to an unforseen 84k tax liability. We learned fast they didn't care about a win win, our family, their clients, only when they would be paid. True character is shown during times of trial. I wouldn't wish these liars on my worst enemy. They involved their lawyer immediately (see attached email) to threaten us to keep a bad deal going! They made negative statements about our financial situation with others copied, lied in legal documentation and gave us no notice that their clients couldn't close after we were forced to move with an infant in four days. Their behavior cost their clients tens of thousands of dollars in penalties because they couldn't close on time. They also used unethical tactics to try to get information from my contractors and lawyer, who told me everything. It was awesome after forcing us through a bad contract they had to turn around and plead for goodwill and flexibility (see attached letter) their clients had to pay us $10k to keep the deal going because they broke the contract. That's the ONLY reason this escrow closed. Instant legal karma my lawyer called it. Look, they are STILL lying in their response and no response to the actual facts and I've posted emails and documentation of all my account. Do business with good honest people. Team Blair really are dishonest, unethical, exploitative, selfish - despicable in the current times. Don't worry Team Blair, I won't be bullied or censored by a group like you. People should know how you do business. Beware Tahoe!

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!
