Dear Sandy,
I want to express my appreciation and admiration for the exceptional service you provided Betty Jean and me as the listing agent for the sale of her home.
Your professionalism and thoroughness provided a relatively smooth transit through the process of preparing the house for sale, a prompt listing and the most desirable outcome of a quick sale, above the asking price. Who wouldn't be happy with those results in this climate of declining property values and large lareclosure inventories?
We had the uncommon experience of timely and excellent work done by the handman and contractors whome you referred to us. Good communication and follow up kept us well-informed throughout the process and after the closing. Your skills and experience were very helpful, as we had decisions to make, work to be done, and the usual mountain of documentation to complete.
You made it all possible. Thank you.
Sincerely yours,
Tom Shea

Dear Sandy,
It has been a pleasure working with you in the selling of my house. I appreciate all of your efforts and care you gave in getting the job done. It is hard to believe that you put my house on the market and sold it in less than a month. We are in a housing crisis, yet you were able to make the deal. Your expertise as a Realtor is over the top!
I became ill on my way to Shreveport, Louisiana for the Christmas Holidays. It was a very serious illness and I have been unable to return to California. That did not cause a delay in the selling of my house. Through the use of the telephone, e-mails, fax and FedEx, we were able to complete the transaction. I was quite pleased with the final selling price.
Thanks again for caring and doing a wonderful job. If any of my California friends should call and ask about a good Realtor, I will certainly refer them to you.
Sincerely,
Delores T. McMillan

Thank you so much for guiding the sale of our mom's house. You have no idea what this sale has done for our mother and our family. I know that it certainly added years to our mom's life. Everything happened so fast, and each day unfolded what we thought would be a nightmare into something glorious! Our mom is at peace. She can now enjoy her life and move forward into the next chapter. We will never forget you and what you have done. You did more than help to sell our mom's house. You were a part of a divine blessing that our mom was not sure would ever come to pass. Again, thank you and may God continue to bless you in all of your future endeavors.
Sincerely,
Sybil Nickelson &
Alvin McMillan

“What a ride it was to prepare, list and get my house sold in about a month with only 2 open houses. You are an amazing professional. You know the details, do the hard work and everything gets done exactly as it should. It's a big plus that you live and work in the area because you are keenly aware of everything that is happening in the real estate market.
I am so appreciative of how you did everything to make it go smoothly and quickly. I am settled into my new life and moving on. Thank you for all you did to make it happen as painlessly as possible.”

“It is with pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for you to present to future clients. Selling a house and moving a family is always a significant venture. Add to the mix relocation to a new city and leaving a home that one loves, and you have a major life-changing event. Our relocation to Seattle was a very a major event, and we are grateful for having a good partner to help us sell our Los Angeles house.
Selling a house requires business savvy, knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and a knack for marketing. You excelled at each of those skills, whole delivering your service with a personal style that made us feel at ease throughout our selling process.
In addition, the prospect of distance could have hindered the completion of our transaction. But with deft use of fax machines, e-mail, and three-way conference calls, we didn’t miss a beat. Your mastery of today’s communication helped us reach our goal.

“As you know, this was not an easy transaction. There was a lot of emotion involved in selling a home that had been in our family for about seventy years. In addition, the house was in great disrepair and, as you know, I live out of town. I knew that I needed the best and the brightest agent I could find who would be able to guide me in selling this very problematic property for the best possible price, and I needed someone who would be willing to do a lot of things above and beyond the norm because I don’t live in L.A.
As you also know, I personally interviewed you and several other agents. When I met you, I knew immediately that you were the right person for the job, and indeed you sold the house for top dollar within a couple of weeks of listing it. It was truly a miracle, and you were the miracle worker.
I’ll never forget how nervous I was to be so far away when so many things needed to be done, but you took over and even did things like sweep out the house so we wouldn’t have to hire someone to do it, take the garbage cans in when the gardener forgot and you met workers at the house to let them in and out. I work in real estate and I have worked with dozens of brokers over the past thirty years, and I can tell you none of them would have done what you did.
Please accept my belated and heartfelt thanks.”

Dear Sandy,
My wife and I interaviewed three local agents who made formal proposals to market our home. I chose you primarily because you lived in and knew the area so well. My wife said that we chose you because we just liked your style. I would describe that style as low key but very business-like. You were also highly recommended by several neighbors.
You were energetic and diligent. You were willing to be available anytime for a showing of the property. This meant numerous weekends, evenings, holidays, and even when you had the flu! Nothing stopped your tireless efforts to market the property.
I highly recommend you as a sales agent. You are a very good listener and are always willing to try something new to market the property. You would actively seek out reacations to the property from prospects that visited the house and kept me posted so that adjustments could be made.
Most of all, after our business was concluded, we still consider you to be a friend and just a very nice person to know.
Sincerely,
Bob Davis

Dear Sandy,
I wanted to thank you so very much for all your hard work on my behalf. You were there for me above and beyond the call of duty between the difficult sale of the house on Highland Avenue, helping me to find a new home for myself and the "kids" Souza and Taylor. Throughout this real estate journey as a seller and as a buyer, you were always there to hold me hand, and I thank you for that.
Gratefully,
Kelly

Dear Sandy,
Thanks for helping make HOPE WEST APARTMENTS come into being! The real workers never get the recognition due to them! We completed this project because of your involvement by finding the two parcels of land to build the seventeen units for low income families, communicating with the sellers through many months of negotiation, inspsections, and governmental review.
You are the best broker in town. Thanks again for your involvement in affordable housing!
Sincerely,
Larry Hixon, Executive Director

Dear Sandy,
We are finally getting somewhat settled in our new home in Tarzana, and we want you to know how very much we appreciate the efforts that you have put forth to make the sale of our house on Tremaine a good experience.
Everything that you said you would do, was done, and it was done with a professionalism and thoughtfulness that is not often achieved these days.
You made this transition possible for us and with a minumum of distress and anxiety. For everything you have done, we thank you and wish the very best for you and continued success, which we know you will have because you know what you are doing and how to do it.
Very sincerely,
Don and Vita Germain
