Working with Maggie as my realtor has been an absolute pleasure, and I couldn't be more impressed with her dedication and expertise. We are still in the process of finding the perfect home, but I already know that I'm in the best possible hands. From the very beginning, Maggie has been attentive to my needs and preferences, consistently presenting options that align with what I'm looking for. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the market and offers valuable insights that help me make informed decisions. Maggie’s commitment to finding me the right home is evident in every interaction. She is always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer honest advice. Her patience and persistence are truly remarkable—she never rushes the process but ensures that every detail is considered. What I appreciate most about Maggie is her genuine care for her clients. She treats this search as if it were her own, and her enthusiasm and positivity make the experience enjoyable and stress-free. I have complete confidence that with Maggie by my side, I will find the perfect home. I highly recommend Maggie to anyone in need of a realtor who truly listens, understands, and goes above and beyond to meet her clients' needs. I'm excited to continue this journey with her and find the home that’s just right for me.

Maggie is amazing!!! 🤩 She made our home-selling experience smooth and successful, even while we were out of state. Her expertise shone through in every aspect: from choosing attractive paint colors, creating beautiful marketing materials, and staging our home to organizing innovative open houses (and neighbor parties!). Maggie's approach to our unique multi-unit property was skillfully strategic and coupled with her exceptional communication we had a full-price closing. Her ability to seamlessly manage the entire process — from preparation to closing — truly sets her apart. And she even helped us clear out the remaining junk!! Seriously above and beyond! If you're looking for a dedicated, professional, and creative realtor, Maggie is the one to choose.

Maggie helped us both buy and sell our house in Sacramento. Because we had to sell the house remotely, it involved a lot of coordination and a lot of on-the-ground work. Maggie was incredibly helpful. She researched and helped choose paint colors. She found and managed painters and contractors. She dealt with inspectors and contractors coming by to offer estimates. She handled staging and marketing completely on her own. She took care of getting photos and videos and we never had to worry about these or the listings. She held several open houses and even went door to door talking to neighbors. She arranged to have the place emptied of items that had been left behind and moved a number of items herself. Throughout the process she communicated with us regularly and was always available for strategy calls and updates. I don't know how we could have managed the process without her, especially being remote. We are very thankful for all of her help and highly recommend Maggie!

Maggie and Rachel are great to work with and really went out of their way to make sure things went smoothly.

We've known Maggie for almost 10 years now when she first helped us secure a loan for our home in Sacramento. We've since used her for 2 more property purchases and 2 refinances over the years. Each time she helped us close fully aware all of our options, with a very competitive rate, and on time! She is a great to work with and true professional!

I have had the privilege of collaborating with Rachel Minyard on numerous projects spanning the last 14 years. She demonstrates proficiency in discerning and fulfilling client expectations, even when those expectations may be challenging to articulate, Rachel has consistently showcased her remarkable problem-solving skills. Her tenacity in achieving a positive outcome for her clients is truly commendable. I consider myself fortunate to have Rachel in my network, relying on her expertise for all my real estate-related needs.

I have been working with Rachel for a VERY long time. I have always loved her attention to detail, professionalism and authenticity. She is a great person to communicate with and she has always had my best interest in mind. It's always a pleasure for me every time I get the opportunity to work with her. I have been a repeat client for a VERY long time and will always continue to work with her. Thanks Rach!

Rachel is a perfectionist with exquisite taste and attention to details.
