āWorking with Sally and Elizabeth on our Home Sale. Definitely the Dream Team.
We launched on the path to sell our home of almost 40 years in May of 2025. After interviewing several agents, we chose Sally and Elizabeth based on their superb track record in selling upscale, historic houses in the San Diego area. We made absolutely the right choice. This mother/daughter team is to use the term "a well-oiled machine". They patiently coached us through four months of upgrades and renovations of our 1920's craftsman bungalow located in an historical district. When we finally listed the home, the market had begun to soften in terms of a seller's expectation on purchase pricing. Sally and Elizabeth diplomatically managed our goals; along with aggressively marketing the property through the various Compass platforms and their own extensive network. The home was listed on a Saturday, open house on a Sunday, and by Tuesday we had three offers over asking. With Elizabethās and Sally's negotiating skills, we had an offer considerably higher than we had expected. They made sure we were updated on every part of the sale. And, unlike many agents, they were at the house for each session - from open house to individual showings to official inspections. The escrow closing phase was upending to our day-to-day schedules; but they both oversaw every aspect to ensure that we and the buyers had confidence in each step. Their complementing personalities, along with years of experience, are a perfect combination of gentle management and persuasive deal making. We cannot be more appreciative of their expertise and support.ā

"Market knowledge and expertise is the best!
Sally and Elizabeth were such a joy to work with. They took the time to help us get familiar with the area and used their expertise in this market to give us the pros and cons of each property we looked at. Their attention to detail and drive through the escrow process exceeded all of our expectations. They are a great team and I couldn't recommend enough!"

"Exceptional agent who truly puts clients first!
We had an outstanding experience working with Elizabeth and Sally to buy our home. From the start, Elizabeth impressed us with her professionalism, warmth, and trustworthiness. Elizabeth always put our interests first, taking the time to help us find the right home, and even guided us through cancelling a contract when it became clear that the home wasnāt a right fit - a decision that ultimately lead us to a far better outcome.Her deep knowledge of the local market helped us secure a home under asking price, and she negotiated repair credits that exceeded our expectations. Throughout the process, she was thorough, responsive, and incredibly compassionate.Even after closing, Elizabeth and Sally continued to support us by connecting us with reputable contractors to begin our renovations. That level of care and follow-through really sets her apart.We couldnāt have asked for a better partner in this journey. Elizabeth is truly the best!"

"If Selling a Home was a Luxury Hotel Experience
Working with Sally and Elizabeth to sell our home set the bar at another level. Weāve sold several homes in the past, and while none were ever negative experiences, working with them was an entirely different experience in the best way possible. Every step of the process was so clearly communicated and so well organized, there were never any surprises or hiccups. Somehow they always made us feel like we were their top priority (even though I know they had other clients they were working with at the same time). This couldāve been a difficult sale (we live out of state, and we had renters in the home while we were selling it) and yet thanks to their poise and expertise, it ended up flowing with such ease. We got the price point weād hoped for (but really didnāt think would happen), we were listed for less than a week, closing was a breeze, and to top things off, it was a truly personal experience. By the time we closed, the only thing that made me sad was that we donāt have another house to sell so we can work with them again. Thank you Sally and Elizabeth, anyone that gets to work with you is in for a treat."

"I couldn't be more pleased with the level of service I have received from Sally and Elizabeth. Down to earth conversations about the market and realistic expectations and how long it Will take to sell. Great guidance on what to do to get the place ready to sell and expert advice during the selling process. The commission I paid was worth every penny."

"I was interested in purchasing a home in Northern SD County but I live in another state. After meeting face to face, Elizabeth was a helpful and knowledgeable resource to me from afar. Her knowledge of San Diego neighborhoods and services was so helpful to me from start to finish. She responded to every question and concern quickly and thoroughly. I've purchased other homes over the years. Elizabeth is, by far, the most professional and friendly and helpful realtor with whom I've ever worked "

"Elizabeth is a highly organized and experienced professional, this is not a part time career for her. We have friends and family in the real estate business but decided to go with the broker referral that could get the job done quickly and smoothly. We were on a very tight time frame having just moved here from out of state. Elizabeth did leg work here in CA for us prior to our move for months and never once asked us to sign anything locking us into a contract with her. Elizabeth has superior negotiation skills and can easily relate to other brokers, RE team members and clients. She has a deep knowledge of the local escrow/funding/closing processes and guided us through the myriad of pitfalls with ease. Lastly, Elizabeth was able to refer us to several local professional firms that worked out great for us; e.g. insurance, accounting, etc. If you are looking for a broker that is available, intelligent and organized, then you have found that in Elizabeth. It really makes a difference when your agent knows the area and has an efficient support network."

"Moving across the country is never an easy task, especially when you have no familiarity with the area. Elizabeth took the time to get to know our family's needs even before our big move and identified the perfect house for us before we got out to San Diego! It was clear she is highly regarded in the industry as she was offered a first look at a home prior to it becoming available on the market. Within one day we were able to find the perfect home and 2 days later we were in contract. Without Elizabeth's knowledge of the area, we would never have found our perfect home. On top of all that, Elizabeth and Sally came to visit us bringing gifts for our small children who haven't been able to access their toys for months during this transition.To say they were thrilled is an understatement! So much personal, responsive attention was given to us. We could not have been happier with our experience and our new home! "
