" Sandy was great from the beginning. I looked at a house and liked it but she pointed out a lot of work that needed to be done. Then I asked her on spur of the moment to see a house and she took me there. If she hadn't responded so quickly I would have lost it to multiple buyers with higher bids perhaps. She brought me a beautiful food and wine basket that is to die for. I would highly recommend her. She is a very sweet and kind person. "

" Melissa is an excellent professional. She has gone out of her way to do research, make contacts and guide us through the process of buying land. She listened to what we wanted and stayed in communication with us. She showed us some properties in person and also was willing to go buy herself and FaceTime us directly from the property, gave us insights into the sellers situation and made us feel welcome in a community that we are not familiar with, especially as a mixed race and LGBTQ+ couple. We definitely recommend her! She is the best agent that we have ever worked with! "

" Sandy was professional knowledgable in saling my mom's house. It was a long going to see when it would sale but it did and I'm glad everything is done. Thank you "

- Bill Habek

" I feel so lucky to have had Sandy Tucker as my real estate broker. I felt I could totally trust her from the very beginning and that makes such a difference when negotiating with many prospective buyers. However, what made her especially stand out was her diligence, perseverance, incredibly positive nature, and her creativity in finding new and different ways to market my rather unique property. She went the extra mile for me repeatedly. Upon my request, she put the house on the market as a rental while it was still being listed for sale (a buyer made an offer soon thereafter so that proved short-lived). I was worried at one point that I was going to have to move my furniture out, leaving the house unstaged, and Sandy immediately offered to stage it herself, an in-house capability of her business. Needless to say, I would highly recommend Sandy if you are looking to buy or sell property! "

- Davis Everett (Client)

" Melissa Kinsel was great to work with from start to finish. You will be in very good hands with her. As a first time home buyer, I am grateful to have been able to work with an agent like Melissa Kinsel. "

- Christian O'Neil

" Sandy Tucker, broker, worked with Lisa Wink, realtor in an amazing way from the beginning, with a very careful market evaluation actually visiting other properties in the Sonoma County area to give a fair listing to my property about to be sold. Their preparation was so well done, that the first day of the listing there were 4 showings and the next day we had a full price offer, which was beyond my wildest expectations. Because my property was 2 older houses on one lot, the buyer required not only the usual inspections, but many more. Sandy and Lisa were there for every one of them, always letting me know what was going on, and reassuring buyer and seller that the process work smoothly. When the buyer lowered her offer because of some of the issues uncovered, Sandy very tactfully coached me into compromising and accepting the lower offer, because of the problems that could arise from canceling the sales transaction. Sandy is very soft, accepting, not pushy and yet persuasive and strong. She knows her field well, and creates a sense of safety. She also trained and guided Lisa, as a Realtor coming into the field after and absence of 14 years. Later, Sandy even dealt with difficult tenants that were asked to leave as a condition of the contract. Because I was an absentee Landlady, she and Lisa did things for me and for the buyer beyond the definition of their roles as Sellers Agents. Lots of Diplomacy and tact, and yet persistence in getting the people out. I feel very fortunate that Sandy and Lisa were my agents, forever grateful. Especially Sandy, because of her long term experience. I very highly recommend her!!! "
