Dustin and Dana from Upside Real Estate did a wonderful job helping my family and I finding and…read morepurchasing a home in Redding CA. They were very help throughout the whole process and made themselves available whenever we had questions. Dustin was awesome about making sure we were always in the know when there were updates about the purchase, and everything regarding the paper work. Dana was amazing during the house search, as we were not local. She did all the leg work for us when it came time to view a property, had all the connections when it was time to do inspections, and gave us lots of great recommendations for contractor/companies to reach out to for the renovations we plan on doing. i whole heatedly recommend Dustin and Dana if you are looking to buy in the Redding/Chico area.

As a first-time homebuyer purchasing in a town several hours away from where I live, I will admit…read morethat the process could have been a daunting one. Luckily, that was not the case for me. I am very grateful and fortunate to have had Dustin on my side during this process. Dustin was referred to me by a friend and from the get go, has managed to impress me with his steadfast and tireless work ethic. He is quite thorough and will stop at nothing to ensure that his client is receiving the highest level of service. I've found Dustin to be extremely knowledgeable when it came to the local market, kind, and very patient with my myriad questions. He made the remote buying process a breeze and was able to creatively negotiate with the seller to where I was able to secure a purchase price UNDER asking - which is almost unheard of in this current market. I can't wait to enjoy many years in my new home, but when I'm ready to buy or sell in the future, I'll know exactly who to call. Thanks, Dustin and team! You have a customer for life.

After my father passed away, I was tasked with finding a real estate agent to help sell his home,…read moreeven though I was not local. In addition to not being local, there was a reverse mortgage on the home, so I wanted to find someone who had experience with reverse mortgages and help me determine if it was worth selling or just walking away. I did some internet searching and Sabrina came up on a few local lists. I decided to reach out to her and she immediately responded and we had a call to discuss our situation. She immediately struck me as honest, compassionate and intelligent. After she looked at the house, she sent me very detailed information about the options we had and what she would recommend. My sisters are local, and decided to bring in a few other agents after meeting Sabrina, as they wanted to ensure we were picking the right agent. After meeting a few others, they immediately let me know Sabrina was their favorite. So, we hired her! Throughout the process, she was so responsive and on top of things. We were able to sell the home quickly and efficiently, and I appreciated her communication and consultation throughout the process. She also navigated the delicate situation of me and my two sisters very well, as handling a parent's estate can be emotional and my sisters were full of questions and concerns regularly, but she was well aware as the trustee, I was the final say in certain things. I highly recommend Sabrina if you are selling a home in Chico!

I worked with Priya Tuvell to buy our first home and it was awesome! I just want to express how…read morefantastic of a job she did by telling everyone they should use her for their first time, next time or anytime real estate needs and here is why! For starters for us honesty and transparency is key to doing business with anyone. She stayed both honest and transparent even if that did not benefit her. She sat down with us at her office and got a feel for what we wanted inside and out side of our budget and laid all out. As visual learner this was perfect for me I could see what I wanted and what the going rate for that was. She was so thorough with background information on the homes she showed us, if she did not have answer she did the research and found out what she could. She was readily available and quick to respond for any and ALL questions we had, again if she didn't know she found out and dug deep for us. She has resources for you if you need them along the way for any inspection you might need or want as well as supports you to you use your own people. Pressure to buy a home DID NOT EXSIST with her, it was fully on our time and our notions of what was right for us. She also was not afraid to ask the homeowners of the houses we were viewing anything. She fully supported us and was always on OUR team. I cannot recommend her enough, especially as a first time home buyer who was initial overwhelmed by the process! Go with Priya I promise you won't regret it!

My last move was from Florida to Chico, CA. to be closer to family. I rented until I was more situated to a new city. Both my children went to Chico State, so I wasn't totally unfamiliar. I always loved Chico charm. My daughter recommended Megan Haimbaugh to be my Realtor since she did such an awesome job for them. I found Megan at an Open House she was hosting and introduced myself. I had a 6-month lease so I let her know I was just getting familiar with neighborhoods, etc. and what I was looking for. It would be IDEAL, I told her, if I could live close to my daughter's family. Lo and behold! Megan sent me to look at a new listing, just getting on the market that day because she said it was perfect for me. It was earlier than I was thinking, but interest rates were rising and I didn't want to lose this opportunity. It was the right price, the right size, the best yard ever and only 4 blocks from my family! Megan is terrific. She is always looking out for me, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, answered all my questions and is so easy to work with. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. My life is forever changed for the better because of her hard work and dedication.

We don't live in the area, so Lora gave us very good advice about which neighborhoods to look at that would have what we wanted- walkable, close drive to shopping, well maintained homes, low traffic, low crime. We found a great home in Little Chico Creek Estates that had exactly what we were looking for, was mobility friendly, and move-in ready. We were able to close our sale quickly, and Lora proved to be an excellent negotiator, sticking firm to our offer price. We felt good knowing that we had someone in our corner really willing to roll up her sleeves and go to bat for us!

Throughout the buying process Jacob was super easy to work with, had a lot of good advice (not fake advice that helps him, but solid advice) and whenever I was feeling really antsy, a phone call with Jacob was always a big help to calm me down and focus ahead. The sellers were -incredibly- difficult to work with and Jacob was always there keeping them on track and sticking up for us. Once the fire happened, I needed information I no longer had access to (Our home insurance policy) and Jacob was happy to get the info he could and had our insurance people get in contact with us. He has also followed up with us since then to check in and offer his help and advice. I don't know if you know how much we really appreciate the support and generous help, Jacob. It's immensely helpful whether in a stressful buying situation or in the terrible aftermath of losing absolutely everything. Thank you.

I usually would only go with a recommendation but I did not have any contact in this area. I needed a strong Realtor to handle the "me" project! LOL I needed a Realtor that would walk me through my first foreclosure purchase and Alisha and her team were flawless in their work ethic and hardworking "go get'em team attitude and style". She only had positive comments and didn't think twice about the very low purchase price, in fact, she worked it out and got me the absolute lowest price the bank would accept, right down to the dollar! She put forth the same amount of professionalism and hard work as if my house were a million-plus dollar property and she was earning the commission that goes along with that price tag. Alisha and her team worked out every detail, gave me above and beyond help, recommendation, gave me and continues to give me contact information and recommendations for various fix-it projects and is a great source of information for projects, community events, area schools, and family community activities.
