After my father passed away, I was tasked with finding a real estate agent to help sell his home,…read moreeven though I was not local. In addition to not being local, there was a reverse mortgage on the home, so I wanted to find someone who had experience with reverse mortgages and help me determine if it was worth selling or just walking away. I did some internet searching and Sabrina came up on a few local lists. I decided to reach out to her and she immediately responded and we had a call to discuss our situation. She immediately struck me as honest, compassionate and intelligent. After she looked at the house, she sent me very detailed information about the options we had and what she would recommend. My sisters are local, and decided to bring in a few other agents after meeting Sabrina, as they wanted to ensure we were picking the right agent. After meeting a few others, they immediately let me know Sabrina was their favorite. So, we hired her! Throughout the process, she was so responsive and on top of things. We were able to sell the home quickly and efficiently, and I appreciated her communication and consultation throughout the process. She also navigated the delicate situation of me and my two sisters very well, as handling a parent's estate can be emotional and my sisters were full of questions and concerns regularly, but she was well aware as the trustee, I was the final say in certain things. I highly recommend Sabrina if you are selling a home in Chico!

They were very help throughout the whole process and made themselves available whenever we had questions. Dustin was awesome about making sure we were always in the know when there were updates about the purchase, and everything regarding the paper work. Dana was amazing during the house search, as we were not local. She did all the leg work for us when it came time to view a property, had all the connections when it was time to do inspections, and gave us lots of great recommendations for contractor/companies to reach out to for the renovations we plan on doing. i whole heatedly recommend Dustin and Dana if you are looking to buy in the Redding/Chico area.

As a first-time homebuyer purchasing in a town several hours away from where I live, I will admit…read morethat the process could have been a daunting one. Luckily, that was not the case for me. I am very grateful and fortunate to have had Dustin on my side during this process. Dustin was referred to me by a friend and from the get go, has managed to impress me with his steadfast and tireless work ethic. He is quite thorough and will stop at nothing to ensure that his client is receiving the highest level of service. I've found Dustin to be extremely knowledgeable when it came to the local market, kind, and very patient with my myriad questions. He made the remote buying process a breeze and was able to creatively negotiate with the seller to where I was able to secure a purchase price UNDER asking - which is almost unheard of in this current market. I can't wait to enjoy many years in my new home, but when I'm ready to buy or sell in the future, I'll know exactly who to call. Thanks, Dustin and team! You have a customer for life.

She always kept me in the loop and responded quickly. She paid INCREDIBLE attention to every detail and made the whole experience feel like I was literally in an HGTV episode. What truly sets her apart is how much she GENUINELY CARES, which is RARE these days. She's not just an "agent", she's a true FRIEND who VALUES the relationship. She respected that finding the right home can take time (we actually met almost 2 years ago, and JUST CLOSED on April 10th of this year!). She stayed patient, supportive, and on top of everything the whole way through. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is AUTHENTIC, CARING, and truly invested in you and your home search, I HIGHLY recommend Angie!! I promise you will NOT find someone better!!!!!

I can't say enough great things about working with Lora. We…read morewere in a unique situation looking for a home to purchase for my husband's parents. We don't live in the area, so Lora gave us very good advice about which neighborhoods to look at that would have what we wanted- walkable, close drive to shopping, well maintained homes, low traffic, low crime. We found a great home in Little Chico Creek Estates that had exactly what we were looking for, was mobility friendly, and move-in ready. We were able to close our sale quickly, and Lora proved to be an excellent negotiator, sticking firm to our offer price. We felt good knowing that we had someone in our corner really willing to roll up her sleeves and go to bat for us!

She guided us through the local real estate market, provided expert assistance in our purchase, and helped manage the sales process all the way to the closing.
