One of our biggest challenges we faced was the responsibility to sell the family home. We live in Northern Arizona, and our parents home was in the West Valley ( Westbrook Village) Jen Johansen was recommended by our neighbor who knew Jen. From the first phone call though the process of so many questions and concerns, Jen was always available to answer our calls. Jen worked with the company we had hired to do an Estate Sale, going as far as listing the estate sell on her Home Smart Page to help with the advertising. Jen and one of her friends went over after the sell, and cleaned and staged the home with the furniture items that were still there. Fresh Flowers greeted each potential home buyer. Jen guided us with multiple offers, helping us make the best choice. Jen is a professional, and looks out for her clients in multiple ways. Jen is a kind, and caring person. She went as far to find out how many grandchildren our folks had? Strange question we thought, but at Christmas came beautiful gifts wrapped for each grandchild with a book she hade made with photographs of our Fathers Art Work. Not a dry eye on that Christmas Morning. We highly recommend this special lady- Thankful clients in Northern Arizona.

When we selected Fantastica Italia to organize our tour of Northern Italy, our chief concern was…read morethat the company is based in the United States, far from where we would be should problems arise. We soon learned that MariaLaura continually monitors her clients' tours to ensure that all proceeds according to plan. A native Italian, she has comprehensive and intimate knowledge of every region of Italy, including areas quite off the beaten track where we intended to go. She has a vivacious personality and a genuine interest in getting to know her clients and understanding their travel styles and preferences. While she was charting out our itinerary, we stayed in touch by phone or email, working out all of the details. The trip she planned for us involved stays in seven cities, starting in Genoa, looping south through Cinque Terre and Florence, turning westward through Bologna and Parma, and finishing in Torino (all cities besides Florence were new to us). She booked all transfers and hotels, working with several local travel companies. The entire tour was indeed fantastic in every way, and went without a hitch. We had contact information for the local companies, and on the few occasions when we needed to be in touch with them (for example, when our boat tour of Cinque Terre had to be postponed because of bad weather), they were absolutely responsive and reliable. All of the drivers were punctual and personable, and even those who professed not to speak English spoke quite a bit and were eager to point out sites and provide interesting background information. Hotels were all first-rate and very well located (always an important criterion for us). MariaLaura booked walking tours in each of the cities we visited, and all of these tours were wonderful and essential to our experience. Otherwise, we were on our own in each of the cities to explore as we saw fit. Since we know Europe quite well and are comfortable with European languages, this worked out very well. (It's less likely that we'd try this approach in other parts of the world.) We took a fabulous day trip from Genoa exploring the western Italian Riviera and Monaco without a guide but only a driver, who took us from place to place and even to some places that he didn't know but that we had read about. On days when we were transferring from one city to another we tried to stop at points of interest along the way. For example, on our way from Bologna to Parma we stopped in Modena to tour the Casa Pavarotti, the Ferrari Museum, and the medieval city center. It's important to note that we could not have done such a tour on our own with a rental car. Parking would have been next to impossible in many of the places we visited. We were able to get out and explore while the driver waited and picked us up at a pre-appointed spot. MariaLaura also booked several excellent specialty tours, including an unforgettable private sunset boat tour of Cinque Terre and a small-group tour outside Parma (just four people) featuring locations where Parmigiano Reggiano, balsamic vinegar, and prosciutto are produced. MariaLaura was very helpful and patient with us as our plans developed. When we found out that tickets were available for a performance of Aida at the Teatro Verdi in Busseto (outside Parma) on a certain date, she reworked the schedule to make sure we would be there. This was not a trivial matter, since the timeframe was narrow and hotel reservations for the hotels we wanted were not readily available. We appreciated the way she willingly took on the challenge and got back to us quickly with a revised schedule that worked out perfectly. She is truly a gem. The cost for this trip, not inexpensive, was nevertheless a very good value. MariaLaura worked with us to tweak the program so as to keep it reasonably on budget. Our tour of Northern Italy was truly a dream vacation. Having been to Italy a number of times, there are still areas that we have not explored. If and when we plan another trip, we hope to do it through Fantastica Italia.

I contacted this company via their on-line contact…read more Months passed with no response, finally 3 months later they contacted me using computer issues as an excuse, (as to why they never responded). My request wasn't difficult, I'm first generation Italian and wouldn't have had a problem booking directly, I contacted them because my husband has some health issues and I felt they'd be able to help/advise with that. When people show you how incompetent they are, believe them.

I've worked with Kimberly for the last six years and during that time, I'd be hard pressed to say…read morethat I've seen anyone else in real estate work as hard for their clients as she does. I've watched her get homes sold in record time. I've watched her get above asking price for her sellers. I've watched her win multiple offer bids for her buyers time and time again. And I've watched her do this all with a smile on her face because this woman LOVES her job...she loves it. Kimberly is committed, professional, honest, and a straight-shooter. She is constantly in touch with you, and I've never waited more than a couple hours to hear back from her. She makes you feel like yours is her only transaction even though she's a busy and well-established agent. I've worked with many agents over the years and I can honestly say that Kimberly runs circles around them. Call her, you will be glad you did!!!

The man gave some advice on things we could include in our home and I thought it was a positive exchange. I asked for some info via text that morning and it took him until 6pm that night to get back to me. When I called he never answered. Later the next week I asked if he was available on a Sunday to meet back at the house to speak with my husband. Texted at noon, hadn't heard from him by 9pm that night, so I texted again and tried to call with no response. Next morning he texted back "Hi not available Sunday" but there were no suggestions for other times. So I called the company and told the receptionist what I needed and she said she would have someone get back to me. Two days later and nothing so I called again, left the same info with a male receptionist and he promised to get someone to call me back. Never heard from anyone. If they can't even return a phone call, I don't have confidence they can manage my VRBO. And if this isn't enough to make you stay away from this company, our friends who have signed on with vacayaz have now told us when the power went out in their home, the renters called them directly because the management company wasn't responding. Stay away.

We found a wonderful home thanks to Janet and Gabby at The A Team! The Phoenix valley is a very…read morechallenging real estate market, especially for buyers. Combine that with reduced inventory due to people postponing listings due to coronavirus, and we were very concerned it would take us a long time to find a home. We decided we wanted to rent a furnished home in the area so we'd have more time to house hunt, but we couldn't find anything available for short-term rental. We reached out to The A Team while we were still living in Chicago and hadn't even sold our own place yet, and they worked tirelessly until they found us the perfect rental. But most importantly, they found us a great home that exceeded all our expectations in 1 day... 1 day!! They have extensive experience in the real estate market in the West Valley, and they can quickly help you to recognize the pros/cons for each listing you visit. Buying a new home can be stressing and The A Team helped us keep calm and see the forest through the trees, making sure not to let "the little things" create undue worry. Even after the closing, they continue to work with us. They worked tirelessly to find a roofing contractor to repair our roof, they coordinated with the mortgage company and title company to help us include a portion of the roof repair cost into our mortgage to reduce our up-front expense. They continue to work with us and are helping us with all the "new-home" needs locating flooring installers, landscapers, pool maintainers... and they even dropped by one day to deliver a house-warming gift. We are new to the area and they continue to make us feel welcome and part of the community. The A Team aren't just great realtors -- they are great people -- and they bring a human element to the transaction that makes working with them a joy. Thank you Janet and Gabby at "The A Team!!!"
