“We are beyond grateful to Gabby Sandoval for her excellent service, professionalism and dedication in helping us sell our home. From the very first encounter of her knocking on the door, introducing herself and dropping off her card, we instantly knew Gabby was the one. She immediately put us at ease with her friendly personality, great attitude, beautiful smile and eagerness to provide us with unmatched personal attention. She took care of every aspect, sharing her knowledge, arranging the house staging, open houses, making sure everything was in place and providing us updates without ever having to ask. Gabby took care of it all. Her attention to detail, personal touches and care exceeded any expectations we had as first time sellers. She even stopped by every few days or so to check on the house and even top off & fill the pool! How cool is that?!! Gabby is the absolute BEST!! We found our real estate agent for life!”

“I had the privilege of working with Nancy Andreason on the sale of my late brother's condominium during probate. Nancy's professionalism, knowledge, communication, positive attitude, patience, sense of humor are what stood out. Nancy provided recommendations for an amazing clean out company and a home insurance broker, both of whom I used. During the sale we unfortunately learned that there were issues with the condominium complex's HOA which made it extremely difficult for the buyer to obtain a conventional loan which led to several delays and what felt like stalling by the lender. Nancy always kept me updated and her optimism was reassuring during the delays. Nancy stayed on top of things, she kept close contact with the buyers agent, escrow, and the buyers lender. I would highly recommend Nancy Andreason to anyone needing a communicative, compassionate, results driven real estate professional.”

Thanks again.”

“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”

“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”
