We did a small job for her totaling about 700 dollars we had to cut open her wall to repair a leaking pipe inside of it. it was beginning to destroy the home with water damage. we busted a small hole in the stucco and did the work from outside. we normally do work outside reason being it's less abrasive and for dust reasons. very normal process. she agreed to the price and we did the work. when it was time to pay she said she was in a meeting. first red flag. The next few days was unanswered calls. then we called from a different number and she said she was gonna send someone to look at it before paying. red flag #2. my plumber has 20 years experience mind you. The "guy" she sent I think was a little 25 year old at best, informed us we did it wrong and should have done it from inside. total BS we replied, we can do your job too if you don't understand how to finish it, he then proceeds to get puffed up I believe this made him a whole 150 pounds at this point. Conclusion, she sent someone very inexperienced to review work he had no business looking at and. long story short we fixed the problem fixed the sprinklers there are no more leaks and she didn't pay.

We have moved 5 times in the past 12 years and between selling and buying we have had our share of agents. Some good, some bad, and some terrible. Kristen has been amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to list their home in the San Benito County area. When you are looking for an agent you need someone who is transparent and will give you the details up front. Transparency is Kristen's specialty. She was upfront with what she thought the value of our home would be as well as a straight forward strategy on how to get the best price in this challenging market. Her projections were right on the money. Not only did we sell in less than a week, but we had multiple bidders and were able to get a better price. You need an agent who is friendly and polite, but can be agressive and bold when needed. Kristen is a great balance of both. She is extremely friendly and complementary, but when it came time to be aggressive and fight for us, she was right there. If you are looking for an agent, I can't recommend Kristen enough. Please give her a call and see for yourself. I rarely give 5 stars to any of my Yelp review, but she deserves 6 from the professionalism and expertise she brought to the sale of our home.

A few months back, my wife and I decided it was time to stop paying the ridiculous rent we were…read morethrowing away each month for our tiny two bedroom apartment in San Jose. It was time to make our first home purchase. We literally had no idea what we were looking for, and no clue where to start! Then came Christina... Right away, from the very first phone call, she put our minds at ease. Our first consultation was setup to accommodate our busy schedule, which is a feat all on its own. She took the time to uncover what we needed, and what we wanted, while offering some sage advice on the areas we were considering. We left that initial consultation feeling even more at ease and confident with our decision to purchase. After a few weeks of monitoring the MLS portal for homes that fit our high (unrealistic) expectations, we hit the road with Christina to view four places in Hollister. Number four was the winner! Easy sale, right? Not really... Things got a little sticky after we made the first offer, since the selling party had issues communicating and meeting deadlines. While all of these things were out of Christina's control, she remained professional, and worked like a bulldog resolve the issues in a timely manner. I would've quickly lost my patience if it wasn't for her diligence and follow up. We know now that real estate transactions are rarely an easy & stress-free undertaking, but with someone like Christina in your corner, it can be a great experience! In conclusion, i base my 5 stars on the following: -Professionalism -Follow through and follow up -Attention to detail... A must have when navigating confusing contracts -Availability... She was always a text or phone call away -Knowledgable about the area and the process -Most importantly, we felt like she genuinely cared about us and our needs as first time homebuyers.

We listed our home in Hollister and she was able to bring us a buyer within 4 days on the market and got us an offer and final sales price 30k over asking price. Unbelievable. At the same time, she found us our dream home and was able to negotiate $20k off of their asking price. In short, Sandy got us an extra $50k over what we had planned and made us over $120k on our home we had purchased only 3 years ago. She was patient and answered every call, question and task I threw her way. She also put us in such a better financial position for life.

The home we ended up purchasing was a bank owned property. Sandy was relatable and was a great match for us and our personalities. Immediately, we established a great professional rapport. Her ability to negotiate, communicate effectively and take care of business was phenomenal. Being a firefighter, my schedule was not as flexible during the fire season. Sandy, was more than willing to meet me at the station or wherever I was at the time (i.e. SJSU) to ensure efficiency to close escrow and get all docs signed before deadlines which demonstrated her commitment to her clients and the tenacious quality she embodies in getting the job done. We were ecstatic to be closing escrow in less than 3 weeks all thanks to Sandy and our hard working team. Both my girlfriend and I highly recommend Sandy and her services, and, we plan to utilize her in the future when we are ready to purchase our second home.

Marilyn Ferreira is undoubtedly the matriarch of professional real estate agents in San Benito…read moreCounty! My wife and I have had the privilege of knowing Marilyn for over 25 years and I make this statement without any reservations whatsoever. We first had the pleasure of meeting Marilyn in the early 90's when we were moving to Hollister from Dallas and she essentially took us in and treated us like family from the get go. Marilyn first placed us in a lovely rental home in Cielo Vista for several years. Then, when my parents retired from Florida and moved out here, Marilyn actually found us a brand new just built rental home in the new section of Ridgemark with an attached granny unit apartment that was perfect for my retiring parents. Thanks, Marilyn! Years later, after we had purchased a Ridgemark home and wanted to sell so as to move up to what ended up being our dream home in Stonegate, we listed the Ridgemark home with Marilyn and she brought us a full price offer in less than a week. Marilyn just gets it done! Marilyn has also introduced us to investing in commercial NNN income properties in a number of states. I don't know if we'll ever retire, but if we ever do it's nice to know that we'll be financially secure having followed Marilyn's investment advice over the years. More recently, my parents bought one of Marilyn's listings on Dry Creek Road and they too were very pleased with their home purchase experience working with Marilyn. Not just my family, but literally everyone I know in San Benito County thinks Marilyn is the best! Respectfully, Tab Mitchell

Thank you all for helping us with our home purchase.

Everything seems fine at first, but she began to use high pressure sales tactics to make us sell sooner or cancel with Anderson. Constantly asking if we were close to selling, or how we could sell faster. She also began to state other buyers were interested in the home we were in contingency with. A home that my wife and I planned on living in forever, and had deposited over 13,000 dollars to secure it. All the efforts on our part seems to slow for Anderson, and the sales manager made it seem we were an inconvenience . Absolutely sad and disappointed we were treated this way by a what I that was a highly rated builder and real estate agents. Especially missing out on a home we looked forward to living in, and will never be able to have. I can say I will never have anything good to say about Anderson homes to another person or veteran.
