TESTIMONIALS

WHAT MY HAPPY CLIENTS SAY...

Silvia was very committed to getting the house sold. This was my mothers house and I had a lot of emotions about the sale of the house. She listen to me about what I wanted during negotiations and was very supportive when I became stressed. She even continue working on negotiations while on her vacation. I really appreciated that. When I get ready to sell my current house I will be calling her.

Purchasing this home was a big deal to us & though it took us a little Lon Silvia patiently stuck by us & made sure any of our questions were answered.
-Z. Perez
Bought a Single Family home in Central, Napa, CA.

Working with Silvia throughout the whole house search/purchase process has been a great experience and a great blessing. She made my journey towards home ownership exciting, fun, and memorable. I was nervous and uncertain going into this home ownership business but her knowledge, expertise, and friendly/sparkly disposition swept my worries away. She was very thorough and she was always on top of things which made me feel like I was the priority... that she had my back and she did. She was there every step of the way. With that said, I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a house.
