In January I began interviewing Buyer's Agents to help us find a beautiful home in Santa Rosa for a 1033 Exchange. We had been online shopping for homes for a few months, but my husband and I decided to combine some home tours with some other business in Santa Rosa. Hands down, Denise was the most knowledgeable, best prepared, and most genuinely friendly of all of the people I interviewed! We decided to work with her exclusively; best decision ever.

On the very first day she was able to get us in to see four homes and then several the following day (following all COVID-19 protocols and getting all the documentation executed in a timely manner). Unexpectedly, we fell completely in love with a home we saw the first day and, by that Monday, we were ready to see it one more time and make an offer. We laughed so much through this process...I'm pretty sure Denise had as much fun as we did those first two days.

When creating our offer, Denise guided us expertly through the thought process so that we could make the right offer. We followed her advice and our offer was accepted! Denise did loads of research - checking and verifying permits, historical information, setting up additional inspections - so that we would have all of the information we needed before we lifted contingencies. After some interesting discoveries, she helped us make a counter offer - also successful! As we navigated through escrow Denise smoothly handled every challenge we faced. At every turn we felt safe and well-informed with Denise. I'm pretty sure she never sleeps.

We enthusiastically recommend Denise Lucchesi. She's the best of the best.

Denise has been so easy to work with. She often works long hours to help her
clients out with a problem. Our computer which had been reliable for so many years
finally reached it's final days right during the sale of the home. If paperwork did not come through Denise would try different avenues to get the program to us and was very
successful. One way or another we got the job done successfully. The sale was a 1031
Exchange which provided further challenges when it came to meeting deadlines.

When we first viewed homes.....and there were a parade of them, Denise was quickly
able to make a visual assessment as to what we were looking at and notice things
that we may have missed. She also had meticulously done her homework on each
property and if there was something that was not noted she quickly researched it and
provided us with the answer. After viewing so many homes the process can become quite exhausting and after a while details tend to be forgotten. Luckily, Denise was there to quickly refresh our memory.

Denise Lucchesi definitely knows the real estate business here in Sonoma. From personal experience I find Denise to be kind and patient and is someone who deeply cares that her clients experience is positive one.

Denise Lucchesi was referred to us by our relatives. This was our first home buying experience and Denise made it go very smooth. Denise always had clarifying answers when we were uncertain about specific items. Denise did an extraordinary job from start to finish and I would highly recommend her to all of my family and friends.

We were apprehensive about being able to sell during the pandemic. Denise Lucchesi was a calm presence, did her research and was convincing that we could make the move. She knew how to price the house, what needed to be done to the interior, and it sold almost immediately at a price we were very happy with. Not only is she very professional and knowledgeable, she is super nice, enthusiastic and a pleasure to have on your side. Thank you, Denise!

We are so grateful to have had Denise help us sell our home. She's super knowledgeable, an expert communicator, very thoughtful, and calm under pressure. And we sold our home for more than we thought possible before the pandemic, which is amazing.

Thank you, Denise, for being there to guide us every step of the way.

Denise Lucchesi is amazing. I am a Realtor and am learning all the time from the way she navigates through the most difficult transactions, negotiations and circumstances during the sales process. She has the utmost integrity, plays by the rules and has great instincts for good deals!
We love working with Denise.

Again, Denise Lucchesi is a great Realtor and a really great person.

Karly is great and super helpful and sweet as well.

Sandy's suggested I use Denise and after speaking with her by phone, I felt a good connection. She listened to and understood my needs and concerns.

I really had to trust Denise's advise in this time of sheltering in place. We had a contract ready when the shut down happened and that fell out of escrow. Denise kept me up to date with the new circumstances and I felt very confident in her.

Across the board excellent!

Denise Lucchesi was a professional in selling my house. She was extremely knowledgeable about the local factors in determining an asking price, which was met and exceeded with final sale price. She seemed to understand the demographics the buyers for my particular property, and we got a large amount of people during the open houses. She was personable and clear in her communication, and followed through on her promises.

I selected three brokers based on Yelp reviews. I interviewed them all at the house I wanted to sell and asked the same questions. I had the best rapport and confidence with Denise. Every question I asked she answered that sounded truthful and reasonable. She priced the property far higher than the others and it sold for more than that.

I’m so happy I found Denise! After two bad experiences with other agents, I called Denise because I knew I wanted someone very experienced and with high-level skills in her trade. You can’t find better than Denise. She listened and worked incredibly hard on my behalf, from minute one. I couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism. She knows what she’s talking about, and she offers sound guidance. I felt like I didn’t have worry about anything because she was on my side. She’s trustworthy, respected in the community, and very knowledgeable—what else could you want from your agent? Denise is simply the best in Sonoma, no question about it! Highly recommended. Thanks for everything Denise!!!!

Our family (including my father before me) had considered listing this home several times over several years prior to this listing. Each time Denise made herself available and was helpful in providing information to help us decide whether or not it was the right time to sell the home. This meant that she spent many hours with us doing work that never resulted in compensation for her. As such, when the time came to list the home for sale, Denise was the natural person to help us; because she was already our trusted real estate adviser.

Denise's estimate of the home's value was dead on accurate. She sold the home for the value we wanted in 7 days, during a power outage and a wild fire. She delivered way beyond expectation.

Denise is a perfect example of a professional. She was never intrusive or pushy; but she was always immediately available when we needed her. Her directions and advice were clear and easy to follow and she was reliable, calm, and accessible whenever a difficulty arose.
