We interviewed a couple of the "best" realtors in the area and were immediately impressed with Russell and his command of the real estate market in Lakewood. I am a Lakewood "lifer" and it helps that Russell is as well. All of the other agents told us all of the things that were wrong with our house in an effort to manage our expectations. Russell came in and told us all of the things that were great about our house, told us where we needed to spend some $$ and how to prepare to show a house that has been my family's home since 1977. Each time we had a new decision to make (and apparently there are many) he was there with his no nonsense attitude and his thoughtful and kind guidance. Russell really does make selling your house smooth and painless - we feel extremely fortunate to have him on our team during this major transition in our lives. He is like having a big brother that you actually like, want to spend time with, and who happens to have an amazing amount of knowledge about Lakewood real estate. Our house sold in 3 days with multiple offers all over asking price!

He also connected us with a team of contractors who helped us renovate and get the house ready to sell, which made a huge difference. The market wasn't exactly easy, but our home was on the market for less than two weeks before we got an offer. We felt like Ramon had a good plan from the start and really knew how to position the house. Really happy with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend Ramon and his team.

Beatrix and her team are absolutely amazing. They're knowledgeable and extremely well organized…read more If I could give them 8 stars I would. Don't waste your time looking for another realtor...start with Beatrix and the Whipple Group first. Some highlights of how they do business... 1. Pictures and marketing done within 5 days of interviewing them. 2. Photos were perfect and I was impressed with the virtual tour they did for the internet. 3. Very tech savvy. The Whipple Group understands the importance of digital marketing. They drove traffic even in a down market. 4. Reputation, reputation. Everyone knew Beatrix and had only positive feedback regarding her work. 5. Work ethic. The Whipple Group understands deadlines and works hard to meet them. 6. Value! The Whipple Group not only surpassed my expectations, but they provided a far superior service than that of other realtors for the same commission. I spent 20 years working as a sales consultant for some of the largest corporations on the Fortune 100. I have completed deals that resulted in revenues well into the 9 figures. So, when I say that I respect Beatrix, I do so with knowledge of what a successful sales person looks like. Lastly, I'm hard to work for, but Beatrix was a star the entire time.

There are so many wonderful things I could say about Beatrix and The Whipple Group, but what I…read morethink is most important is this: I feel incredibly fortunate to have Beatrix as my real estate agent for life. Earlier this year, she helped me purchase my first home. She might say the transaction came with some unique challenges, maybe even apologizing a few times during, but honestly, I never once felt frustrated, overwhelmed, or uncertain. From day one, when I simply texted her with questions, she gave me her full attention and guided me through every step of the process. Not only does Beatrix have an incredible network of resources and connections, but what truly sets her apart is her ability to make even the most complex information easy to understand and put into practice. Working with her never felt like I was simply hiring an agent. It felt like having a trusted, super smart friend by my side, helping me navigate a new and exciting chapter of my life. At every step, even when unexpected challenges arose, I was never worried. Beatrix handled everything with confidence, care, and a reassuring smile. I have no doubt she did far more behind the scenes than I will ever know to make sure everything came together, and it did! As a first-time homebuyer, the process could have felt daunting, but she made me feel informed, prepared, empowered, and supported from beginning to end. With Beatrix, it was never a question of "Is this possible?" It was always, "We're going to get this done." That confidence and commitment made all the difference. I am forever grateful that I had Beatrix by my side for such an important milestone. And it is clear that her dedication, focus, and respect for her clients are reflected throughout her team and The Whipple Group. Great leadership starts at the top, and that standard of excellence shines through in every interaction. I knew Beatrix was an amazing agent before I worked with her, but now I truly understand why she is simply the best. I couldn't recommend her and The Whipple Group more highly. Thank you again for walking me through such a big chapter of my life!

We never felt pressured in any way to make a purchase or bid beyond what we felt comfortable with (we bid on three different homes!). Candice was always very on point in the guidance she gave us. When we refused to waive the inspection contingency on this house, Candice advocated for us and (miraculously) found a way to help us get the inspections we needed for our peace of mind. Candice came out multiple times to the home to meet me as I met with various contractors for quotes on renovations prior to our closing. She kept our 3 year old entertained while we spoke with said contractors. Her dedication is next level. I assure you, you will not find anyone better. Candice is so kind and caring, it is no wonder she has nothing but 5 star reviews on Yelp. She is universally liked by everyone from her clients to inspectors to contractors to loan officers, because she is truly just such a wonderful person. Talking with her is like talking with family. She is patient and responsive. She answers texts and phone calls all day everyday; I have no idea how she keeps this up with all her clients, but she does. We cannot recommend Candice enough and are so grateful we had her on our side during this home buying process.

Candice is a gem - trustworthy, reliable, and knowledgeable!…read more Candice is everything a buyer wants in their agent -- incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and honest. Upon meeting Candice, her command of the history and up-to-date knowledge of different neighborhoods on a street-by-street level impressed us. She shined during house tours with her approach to looking at houses with an inspector's eye -- she maintains a sharp focus on the quality of the bones of each house. We deeply appreciated her graceful ability to both maintain patience with us and quickly navigate tight timelines when needed. Throughout the entire process, we completely trusted her to keep our best interests in mind. She is very well-connected and well-regarded -- she seems to have a contact for every need! Candice is a lovely and genuine person. We are so grateful that we met her. We give our strongest recommendation of her to prospective buyers in the area.

As first-time homebuyers using a VA loan, we wanted a realtor who would listen to our family's needs, guide us through the process, and be patient with all of our questions. Carly was exactly that person. From the beginning, Carly made us feel comfortable and truly took the time to understand what we were looking for in a home. She was knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and always willing to explain what was happening at every step. One of the things we appreciated most was how well she understood the VA home-buying process. She knew the VA requirements and helped us understand what we could and couldn't request or include in our offer. That knowledge gave us confidence and helped the entire process go much more smoothly. Carly was there for us from the search all the way through closing and receiving the keys to our new home. She made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel manageable and exciting. We always felt that she genuinely cared about our family and wanted us to find the right home--not just any home. Our advice to anyone buying or selling a home is to choose a realtor who listens, communicates, and understands the type of financing you're using. We would absolutely recommend Carly, especially to veterans and first-time homebuyers. We are so grateful that she helped our family become homeowners!

We listed a long term rental with The Oriana Shea Group after an extended and difficult tenant eviction. The house was in dire shape. Oriana established a clear improvement plan and selling strategy at the onset.

It was a true transformation. We received multiple offers immediately and ultimately sold way above listing price. The Oriana Shea Group is solely responsible for enabling us to sell a difficult property at the best possible price. I cannot speak more highly of their work and professionalism.
