You took us by the hand (LONG DISTANCE!!!) & always gave us confidence that nothing was IMpossible. And WE gave you experience to wade through the most unique Grant Deed ever written! What a challenge. Thank you for your professionalism, for the stellar updates, for your warmth, for your tender care, for handling Bugs, for being there for inspections & other service providers, for figuring out how to work the door lock, for installing carbon monoxide detectors, for getting us mail that arrived & for joining us in the joy. AND for getting us more money than we expected, when starting out on the journey. Thanks so much for your help & hard work. With thankful hearts, Nicolette & Family

I am submitting this review on behalf of my mother, who was Lauren's client…read more "I first heard about Lauren Spencer from my daughter when she sold her house in Santa Cruz. Lauren was the agent representing the buyer, and my daughter was so impressed with her professionalism that she recommended her to me when it was time for me to move. Lauren and her associate represented me when I was looking for a home closer to my daughter. They paid attention to what I was looking for and were patient and sensitive to my needs as I looked at many properties. They gave knowledgeable and honest advice about making an offer and guided me through the process of escrow and closing. I really got to know Lauren well when she represented me as the seller of my mountain home of 40 years. She knew exactly what upgrades were needed in order to maximize its sale potential. I invested in her expert advice as she brought in high quality professionals from her many local contacts to transform its dated interior into something more modern that would appeal to today's buyers. She has an extensive marketing program, using a crew of excellent stagers, photographers, and multimedia advertisers. Not only did I get an excellent price for my home, but I have the satisfaction of knowing that I was represented by someone of the highest integrity and decency. Lauren is an exceptional realtor and a wonderful person. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

I found Jori through reviews on Google and decided to reach out to her to be our realtor. This was…read moreour first time buying a home and we had no idea what we were doing. Jori answered all of our questions, explained complicated things in terms we could understand, and was easy to reach when we needed her. We really appreciated that she is very honest and direct, pointing out potential issues in houses we viewed, and did not try to sway our opinion on anything we were not interested in. The whole process happened a lot faster than we expected but she helped us feel prepared. She made sure to go through each step of the closing process very thoroughly so we always knew what was going on and what needed to happen next. We had some problems after closing and she was still there to help us. Overall, Jori made the stressful process of buying a home feel manageable and I would recommend her for anyone looking for a home in the Gilroy area.

My husband and I became acquainted w/ Jori a few years ago when we first considered buying a home…read more A few years later, the time was right, and we called Jori again to help with the search of our first home. Happily, we found our home within 2 weeks, but that was when the hard work began. All I'll say is that we should have gone w/ Jori's recommendation for a mortgage broker. The large bank was not it! During the difficult, stressful month that followed (no thanks to you, large bank!), Jori was with us every step of the way. She was persistent and not at all shy about asking the tough questions and advocating on our behalf. She never failed to answer our many, many questions. She was always patient but forthright. I would not hesitate to recommend Jori Mayer, and she will be our first call should we decide to sell and buy again.

I can recommend her with complete confidence.

From our very first phone call, I felt Diane was very genuine as she took her time to talk to me. Diane is also fast at responding texts and or emails, and that's extremely important to me. As a first-time home buyer, she also took the time to explain to me the process, answered my questions throughly and told me to let her know if I still needed help. She also makes you feel validated and is very professional. I am glad she was my realtor in this very important purchase. She was also extremely helpful with other things that had to be handled once we closed escrow. Again, if you want a realtor who cares and is efficient, she is the agent you want.

My application showed it was never viewed and after reaching out to ask why, never received a reply from Spencer. After multiple messages, meeting the owners, and a week of waiting - learned we did not get the house or an explanation of why. We are homeowners and landlords and were well qualified for the property. I feel the agent already had a someone lined up to rent the house, and it was a big waste of our time and money.

Strock Real Estate was a breath of fresh air. Off the mark, Ben Strock and partner Shawndy Linquist…read morewere prepared professionals and remarkable, caring people. Their breadth and depth in real estate is truly impressive and their evaluation of our home was spot on. Ben and Shawndy really listened to us--our financial goals, our budget for home repairs and our wish to retain the charm of our older home. We've bought and sold a few houses, and no real estate company in our experience (or that of our friends) has the degree of understanding about moving as Strock Realty. They know it's hard. Supporting the seller and making relationships with them is built into their mission and structure. How many times did they ask us 'How can we help you?" I lost track. Ben and Shawndy offer competent workers, handy persons, design service and so much support. Their marketing services use state of the art tech and their long experience in the community made us feel tremendously at ease with the showings and confident about selling. When we moved out of state and left the house in their hands, Ben and Shawndy sent us weekly updates, answered our many questions, and gave us well-informed, professional recommendations. And, when the house was in contract, that long distance process, ending in closing, was quite smooth. We are in awe of Strock Real Estate's success and vision as a full service agency, and the amazing people who make that happen. Thank you, thank you, Ben and Shawndy.
