We had a wonderful experience working with Shela. She was always punctual, extremely responsive, and went above and beyond throughout the home-buying process. As first-time buyers, we found the process intimidating at first, but Shela guided us through every step with patience and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. Thanks to her proactiveness and persistence, we were able to secure our home and close in just 15 days! She was always available to answer our questions and made sure we felt supported the entire way. What impressed us even more is that her support didn’t end after the sale—she continued to help by providing excellent recommendations for services we needed after closing. We’re so grateful for her dedication and highly recommend Shela to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Selling our home of 21 years at 34919 Oyster Bay Terrace was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. My husband and I moved here from Poland to build a better life for our family, and this house was where we raised our two children, celebrated birthdays, and shared countless everyday moments. Every corner held a memory, and watching the warm orange walls turn white for the new owners was harder than I ever expected.

To make things even more stressful, I was preparing for surgery and we needed to sell before then. I was nervous, anxious, and, to be honest, I cried more than once during the process. But every time I felt overwhelmed, Christine Nguyen and Shela Poblete were right there to calm me down. They didn’t just talk about the steps of selling a home — they listened, they reassured me, and they reminded me that while it was sad to say goodbye, it was comforting to know the buyers would love and take care of our home as much as we did.

Christine and Shela were always on time, always communicative, and always prepared. They truly put their blood, sweat, and tears into making this sale happen for us. Even when we went into contract and it fell through — which felt like a punch in the gut — they made sure we were protected. They kept our spirits up, telling us the right buyer was still out there, and just two weeks later, they brought us an even better offer that was exactly what we had been hoping for.

I am so grateful for the way they guided us, both professionally and emotionally. They treated our home and our story with respect, and they treated us like family. Selling a house is never just about the paperwork — it’s about letting go of a piece of your life, and they understood that better than anyone.

I would highly recommend Christine Nguyen and Shela Poblete to anyone buying or selling a home. They will fight for you, care for you, and make sure that no matter how emotional the process is, you’ll never have to go through it alone

When we bought 34919 Oyster Bay Terrace over two decades ago, it was far from the beautiful home you see today. The place needed a lot of love — and I was determined to give it just that. Over the years, I poured in at least $200,000 worth of work, not counting the countless hours I spent fixing, building, and improving every detail. Being good with my hands, I took pride in making sure the home was not just maintained, but truly cared for. It became our family’s sanctuary, where my wife and I raised our two kids and built a life after moving from Poland.

Selling it was bittersweet. My wife was facing surgery, so we had a tight timeline, and the emotions ran high. It wasn’t easy to think about leaving behind the place we had put so much of ourselves into. But Christine Nguyen and Shela Poblete were exactly the kind of agents you’d hope for in a moment like this. They were always punctual, constantly in touch, and genuinely invested in making sure the sale went as smoothly as possible. You could tell they gave their all — their time, energy, and heart — to get us the right result.

These two don’t just sell houses — they guide you, support you, and treat your home’s story with the respect it deserves. I would highly recommend Christine Nguyen and Shela Poblete to anyone who wants a team that will work tirelessly, advocate for your best interests, and make you feel like more than just another sale.

Shela is an absolutely phenomenal real estate agent. We say that with full confidence because we worked with a few other agents before her—and none came close to the level of dedication and care she brought to the table. As a first-time homebuyer, our preferences were constantly evolving, but Shela was endlessly patient and supportive throughout the entire journey (even when we changed our minds a hundred times 😄).
What truly stood out to us was how engaged and involved she was during our home tours. Unlike many agents who remain in the background, Shela actively inspected every corner of each property and pointed out important details we would have otherwise missed. She offered honest insights and helped us understand what to look for when making such a big decision.
Beyond just helping us find a home, Shela also connected us with reliable contractors she’s worked with to assist in our renovation projects—making the transition into our new place so much easier.
Shela also has excellent communication skills—she kept us in the loop every step of the way, explained everything clearly, and was always just a call or message away when we had questions. She was always available to answer our (many!) questions and made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t have done this without Shela and genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better agent.

I had the privilege of working with Shela Poblete where she represented the Buyer on one of my listings and she and her team were incredible to work with! The experience was refreshing as they had a positive infectious attitude towards making the transaction as smooth as possible and to do the right thing at all times. She represented her Buyers masterfully as they were in a multiple offer situation and Shela found just the right mix of getting the Buyers the house while convincing the Sellers that they were the right party to choose. Communication was flawless and performance stellar! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing Real Estate assistance and look forward to doing another deal with her in the future!

I am a loan officer and I've had the pleasure of working with Shela Poblete on many transactions, and every single time she impresses me with her dedication and heart. Shela is a fierce advocate for her clients — she consistently goes above and beyond to ensure they are protected, informed, and supported throughout the process. Her negotiation skills are outstanding; I’ve seen her secure credits and favorable terms that truly make a difference for her buyers. She’s incredibly effective at getting clients into contract, and she works tirelessly to make the process smooth and as stress-free as possible. Most importantly, Shela leads with integrity. She always does what’s right for her clients, even when it’s not the easiest path. It’s a privilege to work alongside someone so committed and compassionate.

We met Shela at an open house while we were seeing homes to get an idea of what we want in a home and where we stand in the market. She approached us and was very professional and upbeat. We hit it off with our relationship immediately, and for my fiancee and I, that rapport was important when it comes to which realtor we wanted to work with. Shela helped provide us with a market analysis of every home we were interested in and helped us understand what the value of the home would be and the likely price range it would sell for. Shela has a whole team she has put together from building good working relationships with people in the area and related industries. She gave us a recommendation for a mortgage broker whom we also found to be as good as she was in every detail. She works closely with Christine, another realtor at Next Home. The two of them together as a team are very responsive, answered or found answers to every question we had, and dug deep for information that we didn't know we needed. We saw many homes together and were outbid on at least one home, but ultimately, we won on a home we were happy with. We feel like it took a village to make our home ownership dreams happen, and Shela brought the village to us.

I can't express enough gratitude towards Shela and her partner Christine. I truly believe that had it not been for Shela and Christine my fiance and I would not have been successful in getting into contract on our home. This is the best team I could have asked for. The home buying process can be scary and daunting but we never felt like we were alone. They were always there for us when we had questions and were responsive to our feedback during our home search. They went above and beyond our expectations and made the whole process as smooth and as easy for us as possible. We wholeheartedly recommend Shela to anyone in search of a Realtor.

First off I want to say that Shela is a fireball! Full of enthusiasm and has a magnetic personality! She's very helpful and we gave her a deadline & she fulfilled it! Every time I emailed her with listings she made appointments the same day & she always makes time whenever I have questions or I want to see something. In conclusion I just want to say that she's very hardworking!

Shela Poblete was instrumental in helping me purchase my first home. It was late in the afternoon when I decided to put an offer in on a house, so Shela worked late into the evening to get my offer submitted that night. Due to Shela’s hard work, it was the first offer the buyer received and luckily it was accepted quickly! Since this was my first home purchase, I had lots of questions during the entire transaction. Shela was aways very patient and available day or night to answer my questions. After the closing, Shela was still available to help. She even hired a cleaning service to do a “deep clean” of the house for me! I highly recommend Shela and believe that she can help you find your perfect home too!

Shela has been absolutely amazing. I have been working with her for about three years now. And although we have not found my dream home just yet she’s always positive and continuing to search to find the best fit for me. Her spunky personality and wonderful outlook always reassures me that we will find the best fit instead of settling for something that I am unhappy with. She takes her time and does all of the research on the properties which really allows me to trust her judgment on many of the properties that she is showing me.

Selling a property can be a daunting process, but Shela and her team made it a seamless and positive experience for us. From the very beginning, she helped us craft a solid strategy tailored to the market conditions. Her meticulous planning and execution of open houses were truly commendable.

She kept us informed at every step, providing valuable updates about market changes and the interest generated during the open houses. What stood out was her willingness to go beyond standard marketing practices—reaching out to the neighborhood and employing professional online marketing tactics to maximize visibility.

Shela also went above and beyond in helping us set up staging, ensuring the property looked its best. As we approached the final stages, her close follow-up and attention to detail during the closing process were exemplary.

One of the things we appreciated most was her professionalism and integrity throughout the process. During challenging moments, she never pushed her own interests but instead engaged in thoughtful discussions, even exploring alternative options such as renting the property based on our preferences. This level of maturity and client-first approach made a world of difference.

We are thrilled that, with her guidance and expertise, we were able to sell the property as planned. We highly recommend Shela and her team to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and dedicated real estate partner.
