Carmen was really helpful at every stage of preparing the house for sale to the actual sale. I really appreciated her patient thoughtful advice about what to repair and what not to repair on the fixer upper that we were selling.

Sandy Peck recommends Carmen Cervantes

I had the pleasure of meeting Carmen while viewing a property listed on Zillow, for which she served as the listing agent. Her exceptional knowledge, professionalism, and attentiveness to my specific home requirements prompted me to engage her services as our realtor.
Carmen accompanied us on multiple property viewings, carefully noting the details of our ideal home. She successfully located the perfect property within a remarkably short timeframe. She promptly submitted an offer, which Carmen skillfully negotiated with a 24-hour response request. Despite being on the market for only three days, our offer was accepted, and we are thoroughly impressed with Carmen's exceptional handling of this transaction.

In addition to Carmen's expertise and knowledge as our realtor, her personal side was on full display when we picked up the keys. She met us at the property, and presented us with a beautiful plant, gardening tools and donuts, her thoughtfulness was truly impressive.

We're deeply thankful for our home and feel truly blessed. Thank you, Carmen!

It was a pleasure to work with Carmen as our buyers' agent. This was our first home purchase and she took care to explain each step to us of detail, answering all of our questions, and making us aware of our options. She was responsive and worked seamlessly with our lender and the selling agent to manage the transaction and keep us informed at every step. I appreciated her upbeat and personable attitude in all our interactions. I highly recommend her and would gladly work with her again.

Molly Laverty recommends Carmen Cervantes

Carmen is the absolute BEST! Carmen went above and beyond to help us buy a house in Santa Rosa, while we are living 3000 miles away. We started working with Carmen months ago and when it was time for us to fly out to look at houses, she was ready to go. Carmen gave us her undivided attention and was always ready to answer a phone call or email promptly. She made sure all the paperwork was complete and even helped us out by being at our new home to have it rekeyed. I can honestly say this has been the easiest purchase of a home that I've ever had. Carmen is above and beyond qualified to help you find your new home and I highly recommend her!

Joe & Shami Gomez recommends Carmen Cervantes

Carmen was amazing throughout the process. She communicated frequently and helped us understand the process which made it easier considering we were in 2 escrow at the same time. Her professionalism and positive attitude was extremely appreciated and that’s the reason we chose to work with her 5 years after buying our home. I would strongly recommend you to call Carmen without any hesitation because she will not disappoint.
Thank you.

MK Cirksena recommends Carmen Cervantes

Carmen has served as my buyers agent in looking for a very specific type of property. She was thorough and persistent in showing me everything that I wanted to see. In other words her immense talent for listening well and understanding the buyers needs is a very rare commodity and she has the expert touch. But mostly I want to comment on her responsiveness. People that don’t buy real estate on a very regular basis have a scanty and somewhat distorted view of the process. She was tremendously patient with my questions always answered me properly and thoroughly and was an excellent advocate dealing with the seller and sellers agent. Being available, both by messages emails and in person could not have been improved. She is terrific. She is also a warm and genuine person. I could not ask for more and so I did not. Carmen is now going to represent me as sellers agent on my other property. Thank you Carmen!

Tim and Marnie Esparza recommends Carmen Cervantes

Carmen has been such a pleasure to work with! She is knowledgeable, professional, and has amazing attention to detail. She has helped us purchase and sell our home. Both transactions were painless as Carmen handled everything for us from scheduling inspections, the fence repair, carpet cleaning, and anything else we needed. Carmen was always available to quickly respond to questions, whether in person, via mobile phone, or e-mail. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

Carmen is great! She supported us with the purchase of our Family Home. She was able to answer all of our questions throughout the process. She kept our discussions real and showed honesty.

Carmen was an absolute dream to work with! As first time home buyers we were very nervous about navigating the unknown. She answered all of our questions with the patience and poise that only decades of experience can provide. We will always be grateful for the time and attention that Carmen dedicated to us and we simply cannot imagine why anyone wouldn’t want to work with her. We would highly recommend her services to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Ruth O'Connor recommends Carmen Cervantes

We have used Carmen for both purchasing as well as selling a home. During the purchase process Carmen was aware of detailed information and approached the property with a detailed eye that kept us from buying property that was wrong for our situation. Carmen also facilitated a sale of a home during this crazy Corvid 19 environment. We have recommended her to relatives and feel her services are top notch.

Carmen was very patient and knowledgeable while helping us in the purchase of our first home. She had a lot of suggestions and was very honest in her opinions on what would work for us in our situation. She was never pushy or tried to get us into whatever home came in the market. She let us know step by step everything that went on during the whole buying process, she is also bilingual and I always feel more comfortable with someone who can share my same ideas based on my background it was almost like a family member being our real estate agent. I highly recommend her in the purchase of your new home.

Carmen is extremely knowledgeable with loads of experience in real estate. She has helped us with both a difficult purchase and a quick sale.

Carmen was always close at hand and pre-empting the next step guiding us with patience and confidence.

It could either be her youthful energy, positive attitude or smile that makes a difference. Either way Carmen gets the job done right.

I would highly recommend Carmen Cervantes as your real estate agent.

Carmen was our agent when we bought our home in Santa Rosa and again when we sold it. She helped us navigate six offers within a week of putting our house on the market, and we sold for well above our asking price. She was always responsive to our communications and on time to all showings and meetings (not to be taken for granted). She's a true pleasure to work with!

Esther V. recommends Carmen Cervantes

I was a first-time home-buyer and the first generation in my family to buy a house, so the process seemed overwhelming at first. Finding Carmen was the best thing that could have happened for us. She helped clarify the process step-by-step, helped us understand the market conditions in each area, and helped us connect with a knowledgeable local lender. It was also a great plus to work with a bilingual realtor. I can't recommend Carmen highly enough.

Kevin Butler recommends Carmen Cervantes

Carmen was such an excellent part of our first-time home buying process, she was very professional and personal -while she made us feel apart of her family.

V W Peterson recommends Carmen Cervantes

It was a joy to work with Carmen. I needed to sell a property that had once been my home, but for the past 15 yrs. had been used as a rental. I live 1200 miles from the property, so from my end everything was done on-line. Carmen knew just how to price my property & negotiate credits to net top dollar. The entire experience was worry-free for me, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Carmen was nothing short of amazing! I just purchased my first home, and there was so much I didn't understand. She was there every step of the way, helping to demystify what was at times a very intimidating process. She went out of her way at every turn, so caring, so professional. I would wholeheartedly give her my highest recommendation, and will definitely be sending friends and colleagues to her in the future when they need the help and guidance of a complete pro.
