Working with Michelle Layton was an absolute pleasure! As first time homebuyers, we weren't quite…read moresure what to expect when we were paired with her through Zillow, but she made the home buying process simpler and easier than we would have ever imagined. She was very attentive and always available to talk when we had questions. She helped us get a competitive offer in on our dream home the same day we viewed it, even staying up late with us to make sure we got it in as quickly as possible. We appreciated Michelle's honesty and transparency, giving us honest feedback about our offer strategy and what to expect throughout the process. She explained things clearly in a way that made it easy to understand for a couple people with no experience in real estate. She was also instrumental in getting us help with lenders, home inspections, and final negotiations in escrow. All in all, we can't can't say enough good things about our experience with Michelle. And we certainly wouldn't have landed our home without her!

I cannot thank Kimberly Young enough for her diligence and exceptional service in helping us find…read moreour dream home. I knew in my heart that Kimberly was the best fit because she shares my last name, my maiden name! I was not wrong! Kimberly was extremely responsive and always on top of her game. She knows her stuff in the realty world, and spent a considerable amount of time and energy helping us. The end result was we purchased our dream home!!! She is a sharp negotiator and knows exactly how to get what her clients need and want. It has been a wonderful process working with Kimberly, and I would highly recommend her to any and all future homebuyers looking for their dream home! Allie Young Lyon

Serri was an absolutely exceptional real estate agent, and we can't recommend her and her partner…read moreGeorge highly enough. We hired Serri to sell our five-acre property with an exceptional panoramic view, our beloved home, and from the very first walkthrough she was extremely professional and thorough. She inspected every bit of the home and grounds and immediately knew how to position it to meet our specific goal: a quick sale, at a strong price, with no lingering on the market and no price reductions. A previous agent had pitched our home as a retirement property, which never sat right with us. Serri saw it exactly as we did, as a family home, and priced and marketed it accordingly. She brought in her own staging team, photographer, and videographer (including drone footage), and recommended a handful of relatively small, inexpensive updates, including a fresh paint job. The return on those modest changes was remarkable. They made a huge difference in how the home showed and clearly helped drive up buyer interest and the final sale price. Serri and George held a single open house that brought in over 100 visitors, and within 48 hours we had two offers above our asking price, from a family with young children and another who was ready to start one. Both could clearly picture themselves living there. Serri and George managed every step of the process with great care and skill. We were also in the middle of an international move at the time, which made everything more stressful, and Serri and George took every worry off our plate. Whether you're buying, selling, or just need solid advice, Serri and George are fantastic, and we recommend them without hesitation.

While I'm originally from San Diego, I'm unfamiliar with the real estate market other than looking at properties on Zillow. While talking to a childhood friend, she recommended her realtor Erin and gave me her number. It felt too intrusive to call her personal cellphone so I decided to go to her website to learn more about her and ultimately decided to call the general number. Well, guess who answered?! lol Erin. I had to mute the phone shortly after she answered because I was awkwardly giggling to myself like a crazy person. I guess I just figured someone from her team would answer so it's funny I ended up talking to her anyway. We had a nice conversation. While I had many questions, she patiently answered them all. She offered locations to consider in my price range, townhomes and single family homes and places that don't charge an HOA. I thought HOA's were only on condo's, derp. Erin demonstrated to me that she's more interested in the relationship than the transaction and I respect that. We went ahead and scheduled an appointment at her office next week so she can help me with planning.

It was time for my mom to finally downsize to a home which would be more manageable; square footage to yard maintenance; for someone in their 80's. Therefore, I searched Yelp and after viewing the realtors on Yelp, Erin Wade stood out even before I read her reviews. I called Erin and set up a meet and greet with my mom and husband to discuss options for selling and buying a home in the area. From starting to finish, Erin was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, stress-free and successful for my mom who has never had to deal with selling and buying a home for over 30+ years. Erin is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, communication was always clear and timely, and she responded to all texts and/or emails in a timely matter even while out of town for family event. If it just so happened Erin was not available, she assigned someone from her team to cover in her absence. Erin made sure we were kept in the loop on any information about the property my mom was selling and the one she was purchasing. Erin really catered to my mom's needs and to my husband and my expectations during the process. Overall, Erin made us feel we were the only customer even though we know that is not true. We; my mom, husband and I, are grateful to have found Erin Wade and her team to help my mom sell her home and find her forever home. If you are looking for a great, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable Realtor. Erin Wade is that Realtor. I will definitely call Erin Wade when I am in the market to sell my home.

I would like to commend Tyson and his exceptional team for their outstanding professionalism and…read moreexpertise. They are consummate professionals--highly knowledgeable, responsive, and diligent in keeping clients informed at every stage of the process. After an unsuccessful attempt to sell our condominium in Temecula with a previous agent, I reached out to Tyson. He responded promptly the same day, and we quickly arranged a meeting. From the outset, he demonstrated thorough preparation and due diligence. Remarkably, on the very first day the property was listed--and after the first showing--we received and accepted a full asking price offer. Tyson's skill and experience were evident throughout the transaction. He navigated challenges with confidence and precision, ensuring a seamless process from start to finish. We are truly grateful for the swift sale and for achieving maximum value for our property. His team is equally impressive. Paola was outstanding, and every individual involved contributed to a smooth and efficient experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Tyson and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. Their dedication, expertise, and results speak for themselves. We remain sincerely grateful for their exceptional service.

I cannot say enough great things about Christian!…read more We live in NorCal and needed to sell our rental property. We wanted someone who could handle all aspects of the sale knowing we wouldn't be present. After reading other reviews and seeing how he has worked with several out of town sellers, and then speaking with him directly, we knew he was the right person! The first thing he did was hook us up with a handyman (who not only did a great job, but also in record time). He installed new LVP flooring, painting, installed countertops and more. After completion, Christian scheduled a house cleaner and then a photographer to promote the property. We got the house on the market in about 3 weeks with beautiful pictures and it sold immediately and it closed in 25 days. Through the entire process, Christian was very communicative and kept us in the loop the entire time. I can't imagine how this process could have gone any better! Highly recommend!!

We had such a great experience working with Rich and his team. From start to finish, they were…read moreprofessional, responsive, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond for us. We also weren't very familiar with the Temecula area, so Rich's local knowledge and guidance were incredibly helpful throughout the process. Partway through, some unexpected health issues came up that made it difficult for us to be on site and handle everything ourselves. Rich stepped in without hesitation and took care of so much on our behalf. He did a tremendous amount of legwork, kept everything moving, and made what could have been an incredibly stressful situation feel manageable. It's rare to find someone who genuinely goes that far beyond what's expected, and we were so grateful to have Rich in our corner. He and his team made a stressful situation so much easier for our family. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a realtor in the Temecula area!

Giving five stars and a glowing review is simply not enough to express how happy we were to work…read morewith The GreenHouse team. As first time home buyers, we had no idea where to start. We were also out of state which made everything that much more difficult. I'm a big Yelp user and relied on the hundreds of other 5-star reviews to look for a real estate company. I was so impressed with Craig and Jesse from the start. The initial call was SO organized, thorough, and personal. Not only did they give us a incredibly detailed step-by-step guide of the buyer's process, but also spent the time to learn more about us as people and what we were looking for in a home. I was surprised my how much time and energy was invested before even signing any contracts with them. After meeting with a few different teams, we chose the GreenHouse Group and 100% stand by our decision! Communication was consistently strong and we were always in contact with someone/the entire team along the way. We worked with Lori & Alexa who also helped us navigate documents and important deadlines. The GreenHouse Group has a well-designed platform to track the home buying process--making it easy to see deadlines and to-dos. We worked with Craig for our Kick-Off Tour. The GHG evaluation system for homes captured everything important to consider when purchasing a home and we learned so much about what to look for when checking out a home. Craig was straight-up, incredibly knowledgable, and clearly looking out for our best interest. He took us to see quite a number of homes that day and even had snacks and waters to keep us going! Unexpectedly, and uncommonly, we found a home from that weekend's trip we wanted to put an offer on. Craig jumped right in and guided us through the 'make-an-offer' process. He worked incredibly hard to negotiate on our behalf and was able to coordinate inspections and video walk-throughs for us when we couldn't be physically present. We were always promptly and transparently well-informed and advised. We never felt pressured or persuaded to make any decisions. Craig and the GHG team presented the facts and gave recommendations based on 20+ years of company experience--always looking out for our best interest. They were 'real' and weren't out to "sell us" on anything. Even during the rent-back process, the team coordinated with the other realtor to work with the sellers on transitions and key dates. It was super fun when Jesse and Lori were already at the house when we arrived to pick up our keys--what a thoughtful surprise! To top it off, they came with a whole container of new home goodies and essentials for us to use while we settled in (and even had some for our dog!) The care box was super useful, especially when we didn't have any of our kitchen items yet! Even after the sale and getting our keys, the GHG team is still there to answer your questions and help you out--including a list of recommended contractors and other services you might need when moving into a new home. I'm sure I am forgetting something here, but needless to say, we 10/10 recommend the GreenHouse Group to anyone looking to buy (or sell!) a home. We have no regrets and could not have asked for a better team. Thank you GHG!

She kept everything organized behind the scenes, was always responsive and helpful, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. I have no doubt that her attention to detail played a big part in helping us close on time. Thank you to Lori, Alexa and Jesse in making this process feel smooth and manageable! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, responsive team to help sell your home, this is your team!

Selling property is challenging and stressful enough. Selling property after the death of a family…read moremember on their behalf is beyond the normal stress of selling any property. After having a bad experience in selling another property previously, we chose to come up with criteria to find that perfect someone. We, as a family, already had plenty of emotional challenges and stresses to deal with so it was important for us to adhere to guideline #1. 1. Seek Referrals 2. Choose the Person, Not the Experience 3. Remember Chemistry is Key 4. Find Someone Who has your Best Interests at Heart 5. Go with your gut feeling 6. Find an agent you can Trust 7. Look for Passion, Conviction and Honesty 8. Make sure they offer adequate support 9. Check if they mitigate risk 10. Look for core values 11. Find a compassionate agent who understands you 12. Track record and inventory 13. Seek Clear Lines of Communication We were referred with ONE referral - Heidi Dickens. We set to meet with Heidi and one meeting is all it took to know that she was the ONE! Heidi may have an extensive and impressive experience but the person that she is - caring, compassionate, ethical, professional, wonderful communicator, knows the way the world of social media, and so much more - she was our perfect fit! We signed our contract with Heidi prior to the COVID19 pandemic. No one could have ever imagined how upside-down our world would be once the quarantine and stay at home mandates began. Heidi through all of this added challenge remained, caring and so very thoughtful. Despite having already staged the house, prepared the video showcase for the property, and other arrangements, she put US first! Throughout the entire process, Heidi made it clear to us that her approach to working with us would be that she took ownership of EVERYTHING. From understanding that we did not want a lock box at the door, to understanding we also wanted to make sure she would be there for any and every showing. To understanding that I was a control freak about making sure I knew when she would be at the property, or when anyone she worked with was at the property. She took the time to understand each and every one in our family, including our quirks and personalities. If our experience with Heidi is any indicator of how she is with all her clients, then, she is definitely one who will put her client's interest first. She is not only passionate about being the best Real Estate agent, but she truly knows her stuff when it comes to real estate rules and regulations. She works with an exemplary team that made this process as bearable because of the emotional strain this was on us. Her team was just as amazing as Heidi herself. It takes a very special person to lead the efforts to the level that Heidi did for us. Which, by the way, if one were to look at her other reviews, shows that she definitely takes pride in doing the best on behalf of her clients....continuously! As I mentioned, Heidi had the added challenge of dealing with the quarantine and social distancing guidelines that were constantly changing while working on selling our property. She made sure that the appropriate steps were taken to ensure that anyone, once the quarantine was eased to allow viewing again of the home, remained secure and met the guidelines for ensuring the safety of all parties. When other agents tried to circumvent the process, Heidi made sure to protect our rights and interest. And, she did so with professionalism, ethics and grace. Her weekly communications were an added benefit too. I firmly believe that we not only had an amazing experience having Heidi as our real estate agent but I think we were blessed to have gained a friend as well. There would be NO hesitation on our part to recommend Heidi and her team at Village Properties. She truly is a remarkable human being and real estate agent.
