We were looking to buy a property in Truckee and found John through Yelp, where he had outstanding…read morereviews. Those 5 star reviews were absolutely spot on. John knows the Truckee/Tahoe market inside/out and brings an unmatched level of experience, honesty, patience and professionalism. He is incredibly responsive (often within minutes), highly organized and never pushy. We felt that he was always operating on our timeline and looking out for our best interests rather than just trying to close a deal. Since we live in the Bay Area and couldn't always see homes in person, John made the process easy by taking detailed videos and clearly walking us through the pros and cons of each property. He was also extremely accommodating with our schedule whenever we needed to come up to Tahoe. On several occasions, when we thought we found the right house, John gave us honest guidance on why it might not be the best fit and he was right every time. He knew what would work for us even better than we did. His support continued well after closing. John helped us navigate the practical realities of owning a remote home in the snow, everything from snow removal services to maintenance planning and even coordinated access for contractors and furniture deliveries when we couldn't be there. Working with John made buying a vacation home in Truckee far easier and more enjoyable than we ever expected. John comes highly recommended. Do not look any further.

Anna is the most responsive, motivated, thoughtful, and personable realtor that I have worked with…read moreover the last 6 years on 8+ transactions. I started following Anna on her social channels in mid-2020 after observing the velocity at which she was putting properties under contract -- keeping close tabs on the Tahoe market, I noticed that Anna was outpacing nearly everyone else. In the spring of 2021, we interviewed Anna and 2 other realtors to list our Olympic Valley home; she was the most prepared and presented a comprehensive plan for how she was going to facilitate the process from start to finish. Her ideas and approach were unique and her insights regarding staging and property presentation made a huge impact. Our timeline was very aggressive and Anna was able to accelerate things on her end to exceed our expectations. We received multiple offers and closed on the property in just over 5 weeks after interviewing Anna. Throughout the process, she was on top of every detail, provided ample communication + updates, and formed a personal relationship with us that made the process much more enjoyable. In a hot seller's market, you might not internalize the importance of a strong listing agent, but Anna will maximize the return of any property she represents. Thank you, Anna, and we look forward to working with you again (soon). -- J, B, and A

Anna came highly referred to us and she exceeded our expectations. She is the utmost professional:…read morecommunicative, detail-oriented, and follows through. Anna understood our goal in finding a mountain home and demonstrated tremendous patience as we evolved from our initial goal of purchasing a townhouse in Tahoe City to identifying a dream home in Truckee. Throughout the process there were excited moments when we thought "this is it!," yet Anna was careful to point out concerns that might arise over time with respect to roof lines, sun exposure, street noise, sloped driveways, etc. Other times we thought, "we can make this work," yet thankfully we listened to Anna's skilled expertise and objectivity to prevent us from settling on a property "just to get in." Without question, Anna placed our needs and priorities first, which resulted in a trusted relationship we feel so appreciative about. We highly recommend Anna!

I honestly don't think you're going to find anyone better than Talya in Truckee area…read more We partnered with Talya to sell our home in Tahoe Donner. End result was we went with an offer above our estimated sale range which was great. But the process was very enjoyable as well. Talya did a great job staging our home and recommending certain updates to solve for as high a sale price as possible. When the multiple offers came in, she was a great thought partner to gameplan how to negotiate with each potential buyer. The overall process was incredibly smooth and professional, we trusted her along the way, and we got a great outcome we were extremely happy with. Exactly what you want in an agent.

Working with Drew Walden completely redefined what I thought a realtor could be. For two months,…read moreyour realtor becomes someone you talk to almost daily, someone you rely on for clarity, momentum, and sanity, and I cannot recommend Drew highly enough for that role. He wasn't just a realtor; he was a trusted advisor, a project manager, and a steady voice through every twist of the process. Drew consistently went above and beyond the job description. He chased down my insurance provider when they were dragging their feet, pushed my mortgage lender to get answers we needed, coordinated with contractors, and smoothed out countless behind-the-scenes details I didn't even know existed. Every time something got stuck, Drew was the one who unstuck it. People love to say realtors aren't worth the five-figure fee you pay them--but Drew was worth far more than that. He added value at every single step and made the entire experience not only manageable but genuinely enjoyable. If I ever make another purchase in the Truckee area, Drew will be my first call, no question.

Drew & his team were incredible to work with, and made our longtime dream of owning a second home…read morein Tahoe a reality. Drew patiently worked with us over more than a year to find the perfect home. Living in San Francisco, Drew's local market expertise and willingness to quickly go scope out homes as they hit the market for us was critical. Once we found the right place, Drew helped us navigate Tahoe-specific quirks that we weren't familiar with, and made sure the entire deal got done on time, with minimal stress for us from afar. We've just settled into our new home on the West Shore and couldn't be happier! Highly recommend working with Drew and his team if you're looking for your perfect Tahoe getaway.

Alison and the team at Elder Group are not just the best in the real estate business, they are the…read morebest professionals I have ever worked with in any industry. They're incredible. I have now bought 2 homes using their services, and also sold 2 homes, and wow I was blown away at how quickly and efficiently they worked, while being fully transparent and always keeping a positive "let's do this!" attitude. A+, 5 stars, flawless service, excellent outcomes. Over the summer of 2021 my fiancee and I made the decision to renovate our kitchen. In order to do so in the timeframe we wanted, I needed to sell my cabin in Tahoe. I synced with Alison to understand her thoughts on my home, the market in general, and thoughts on the future. She took time out of her day to educate me, and 24 hours later I decided to move forward. Alison's team quickly provided me with a checklist, we all split up tasks (including her team completing tasks on my behalf), and within 5 business days we were on the market! I love moving quickly and even I was blown away! Alison was able to move the house in less than a week (if you do not consider the week of wildfires). Her staging decisions were amazing and ultimately we got 3 offers, one of which stood out which we decided to move forward with. The buyer wanted to move quickly (cash and lifted contingencies), and in all of 10 days (!!!) we completed the entire checklist and closed. And to be sure, my cabin's value/listing price was probably in the bottom 50th percentile (maybe even lower) for her, and she still treated me as if I was one of her top clients. I cannot express how amazing Alison and her entire team is. When the day comes and I purchase my forever cabin in Tahoe, she's the only person I'll trust. If it's in 20 years and she's retired I'll knock on her door and beg her to come out one last time! The entire Elder Group team is amazing. THANK YOU!

A prime example was we wanted to have a professional photo set of the house, but by the time we had completed the transaction and were able to get moved in, big winter storm had hit and buried the place in snow. I contacted Alison and requested if she would consent to us using a few of the photos she had done for the listing, and she replied right away with a yes. Seriously, you can't get that kind of service. Glad to have someone so responsive and helpful even when they don't have an obligation to. Those are the types of people I am glad to do business with!

We were looking for a place in a very specific complex, and Camille stayed in touch with us while keeping us informed about the overall market.

Ultimately, Camille had her ear to the ground and found us the perfect fit before it even came on the market. Throughout the escrow she kept us informed, arranged additional inspections, and even followed up with the HOA regarding exterior repairs before we were under contract. We appreciated her diligence, local knowledge, and the way she stayed on top of the details throughout the transaction.
