Recently my spouse passed. I was not capable of continuing the mortgage and related expenses in…read moreCalifornia, and had no family in the area. I began my quest to sell the family house of 66 years, and care for my elderly father out of state. I interviewed four agents in Eureka, CA. Only one was able to impress me. She was honest, came prepared with substantive comparative prices and showed a consistent history of selling homes. That was Cheri Champ. Cheri came out within a day to talk with me and worked hand in hand with me on what I should prioritize on cleaning and repairs. She had the perfect set of repair people on speed dial, cleaning people, dump run people, contractors to help fix the antique lath and plaster walls, and more. It was no easy task. It took nearly two months of purging, packing, donating, and repairs. Cheri came by a few times and was impressed with the speed and dedication I showed. Once the moving van pulled out, Cheri had everything completely and perfectly orchestrated; the house was staged, photographed, and a open house within a day. Cheri kept me informed every step of the way. Cheri was always available, is a great listener, never dismissive, provided alternative perspectives, and always provided sound advice, time after time. I would not hesitate to recommend Cheri Champ. She is best.

He did what many thought was impossible, helping my brother at the age of 18 who is active military in Korea get his first triplex. Words cannot describe how grateful we are for all of his help and his mentorship throughout this deal. Any lesser agent would have stumbled at the trials and tribulations we have gone through for this deal. We spent six months talking at least two hours every day, figuring out which way the wind was gonna blow that day and if our deal was still alive. If it wasn't for his tenacity, this would not be possible. Because of him are family are no longer renters And that is a feeling we never thought would happen. Overall, I would say I'm not doing the Man justice But if it wasn't for his mentorship, this would've never happened. We love Zach and he feels like a part of our family, we can't wait for what the future holds with this man and wish him all the success in the world!

She never tried to talk me into a house, never oversold one -- in fact would point something out if she felt it might impact me negatively.

She has a good reputation! Plus she's very likeable and good to be with. She's very responsive -- texts and calls either answered or replied to right away. So she's got it all: experience, connections, character and personality, and sales ability.

He doesn't communicate very well with the customer, advises them to do things and then forgets about it. He doesn't seem to be following his client separately, he gets his clients location and current process going on with the sale jumbled up. Example being he asked how Arcata was, we live in Eureka. Or advised us to do a repair in the bathroom and then said I didn't ask that. He uses a tactic of making phone calls, doesn't work with texts or emails, reason for this in my opinion is so there is no trace of the conversation. At first he was super helpful, but then repairs needed to be done on the house and that is where everything collapsed. He had some shady pest control company come and do the work. Our house is now a complete mess, we will need to get someone out to fix there mess. He also has a tenancy to try and push houses on you that are of no interest as he is all about the sale. Please be careful with Mike Pigg.
