She was so helpful through our search, as non-local buyers in a very competitive market. She did so much to help us find the perfect place. While I know she was working with others at the same time, we always felt as if we were her only clients. Diligent, honest, informed, trustworthy and responsive are what you get with Terri. Just recently, we had a property to sell and there was no question we'd be working with Terri. She gave us great insight into what we needed to do to get it ready to list and we had it sold and transaction completed in record time. Five years ago we thought we found the greatest real estate agent, but then realized that we met a wonderful new friend.

Cassandra and Shonda are a fabulous team…read more When I decided to sell my home, I appreciated how Cassandra asked insightful questions to clarify my needs and provided helpful pointers to prepare the property for sale. Even when we encountered a complex issue with the septic system, Cassandra's help in finding an expert to implement a solution was invaluable. Once the solution was implemented, the team went to work guiding me through the process and paperwork to list my home (made those tasks so easy.) They kept in constant contact updating me with each viewing and in just four days after listing my home was sold. Cassandra and Shonda's market expertise, attention to detail, guidance, and frequent communication made all the difference throughout this process. I highly recommend Merrill & Associates!

Her work ethic is incredible and we appreciate her no-nonsense attitude to the real property transaction, even when dealing with very emotional sellers during the purchase of our first home. The process was made clear when we had questions for Cathy, and her input was very valuable when we had some negotiation decisions to make. Without Cathy, we would have been left wondering if the terms agreed upon were fair. Her candid honesty was very grounding as we worked through placing an offer, back-and-forth counters, and ensuring repairs were completed before escrow closed. We first began working with Cathy a little over a year ago after my mother in law found her on Yelp. The ratings with Cathy are high for a reason. She is punctual, detail oriented, and her sense of humor made me feel confident and comfortable. Every email, call, and text was answered promptly and all our concerns are carefully considered. We got very close to buying a home last year with Cathy's help after viewing a few properties that had a secondary unit on site for my MIL. At that time, available properties with auxillary units were very hard to find in San Luis Obispo county but Cathy was able to pull together a great list for us to view. When this purchase fell through, we decided to wait and see where the market would be in the future. Once we found the home of our dreams on a listing online, we went to the open house and were delighted to meet a former colleague of Cathy's who was showing the house. Cathy reached back out to us as word came her way that we were interested in the property - and the rest, they say, is history. She even helped us with referrals to great vendors like our home inspector and handyman. I am confident that my family has earned a new family friend in Cathy Francis and we would highly recommend her services.

We felt like she valued our feedback and respected the magnitude of our decisions for such an investment. Candice really shined when we finally decided to make an offer on our home. She helped us devise a solid offer to beat out the competition. She was also a strong negotiator for us and was extremely professional when communicating with the seller's realtor and all the other involved parties. There were many complications and surprises during our escrow. Candice exhibited her knowledge about real estate, property maintenance, repair, and about the market in general. She had to work really hard for our sale to go through, and her diligence and fortitude ultimately resulted in a successful sale. Even though our house closed and Candice's work is officially done, we have kept in touch with her.
