Lisa was wonderful to work with, you can’t help but love her. She’s very attentive and makes you feel as if you’re her only client.
Lisa handles all the details of home buying, plus the referrals for the professional services you will need during the process. We used all her referrals from the loan to the inspections, they were all great also!
We wholeheartedly recommend Lisa as your first or next Realestate agent!

Sandy did an excellent job for me. Her professionalism is above and beyond. She always made me feel she was on top on the transaction during the entire process. Sandy is easy to work with and our time together during the transaction felt like I was spending time with a friend. I would highly recommend Sandy and look forward to working with her again in the future.

Selling my post-fire parcel was a well thought out, yet difficult decision to make. Having Melissa as my realtor helped make the transaction easier and less stressful.

Melissa was always responsive via text or call; she helped with questions and procedures that were new to me as a property seller.
She understood and had compassion for my feelings about loving the land and the memories of a happy life at that property.

Melissa allowed me to decide when it might be time to reduce my price and she did a fabulous job promoting/advertising the property's beauty and value.

Overall, Melissa made the process for me less painful in very many ways. I would (and have) heartily recommend her as a realtor to others in the regional market.

Melissa bought us our first home! - that will be my experience in one sentence with her :)
She was such a great guidance the whole time. As I had no understanding of the process she was so kind doing extra efforts to make sure i do understand all the aspects. I appreciated so much her personal advice, all the way keeping us informed about the progress! Without her we could not have done this! Thank you, Melissa for being both-great professional and a person !

Melissa assisted us with purchasing a home in Hidden Valley Lake. She was always responsive and this was not just my opinion. The parties in the transaction all said stated the same.

I think these days responsiveness is hard to come by; it's appreciated by my wife and I.

We were very happy that we selected Melissa to sell our home in Lake County, CA. First and foremost, she is a wonderful and fun professional who knows how to help reduce the stress of selling a home, making it a team effort. To begin, she set up an orientation meeting with us as first time sellers, explaining the steps we would take and helping establish a sale price in conjunction with optimal timing. Then she helped us prioritize what we should do to prepare the house for sale, and we set a realistic deadline to have everything ready to create a strong positive first impression for prospective buyers as soon as the house was listed. It only took an open house and a private showing for an offer to be submitted within days of the listing. After receiving the offer, we appreciated Melissa's attentive follow up efforts to navigate the escrow process, which in our case required special investigations in order to feel secure about how realistic the funding was. In the end, the sale and the purchase worked out positively for both parties due primarily to Melissa's attentive and timely input.

Sandy Tucker was the ultimate professional...knowlegeable, organized & detail-oriented, responsive, and a great communicator. An additional benefit to Sandy's total professionalism was her personal attention to our specific sale. It was as easy for me to discuss the sale of our home (even though we'd never met previously) as it is for me to talk to a friend. Sandy shows genuine understanding for the needs of individual clients. I definitely recommend Sandy Tucker to anyone!

Sandy properly researched the maket for our home and recommended a price that would likely move it. She then worked to make sure any offers received were at or very close to our asking price. We got an offer immediately at our asking price. It contained a significant concession for the buyers agent. Sandy did no push us to accept, but we, as eager sellers, made our own decision to accept the offer. Throughout all the technicalities, disclosures and inspections Sandy was able to guide us as to what would work and what might be problematic. Her intuitive experience helped us avoid the kinds of outright conflicts that can easily derail the process. Our sale closed smoothly and we were on our way in what was near-record time. I would reccomend Sandy without reservation.

Melissa was the first real estate agent I talked to and I brought her on board immediately because I got a good vibe from her. She was incredibility quick and thorough in her responses, and our process was smooth throughout. Everything happened on the schedule we laid out and resolved the way I wanted to. Postive person, skilled agent.

We were relocating out of state and needed to sell our mobile home that had been our home for more than 42 years. Our previous experiences with realtors had not been good, and we were so much wanting to find a nice realtor. Melissa Kinsel was recommended to us, and we reached out to her. We never regretted that decision. From the moment we met, it was a fit. She was so kind, positive and had a perfect personality. Not once did she say anything negative about our home even though it was older and could use some updates. Not once did she disappoint us. She never challenged us about anything. She answered all our questions with patience and understanding. She made the experience pleasant. She went beyond the call of duty when she swept the sawdust out of our workshop when we realized that we had forgotten to do that before we left. She knew we were Adventists and she honored our requests regarding contacting us about real estate issues on our Sabbath. We would highly recommend her to anyone without one bit of hesitation. She brightened our lives throughout the entire experience. We are honored to have worked with her.
