We love working with Denise.
Again, Denise Lucchesi is a great Realtor and a really great person.

"Sandy's suggested I use Denise and after speaking with her by phone, I felt a good connection. She listened to and understood my needs and concerns.
I really had to trust Denise's advise in this time of sheltering in place. We had a contract ready when the shut down happened and that fell out of escrow. Denise kept me up to date with the new circumstances and I felt very confident in her.
Across the board excellent!"
Anita Buckner, Sonoma (Seller) Sun, 17 May 2020 09:19:20 +1000
"Denise Lucchesi was a professional in selling my house. She was extremely knowledgeable about the local factors in determining an asking price, which was met and exceeded with final sale price. She seemed to understand the demographics the buyers for my particular property, and we got a large amount of people during the open houses. She was personable and clear in her communication, and followed through on her promises.
I selected three brokers based on Yelp reviews. I interviewed them all at the house I wanted to sell and asked the same questions. I had the best rapport and confidence with Denise. Every question I asked she answered that sounded truthful and reasonable. She priced the property far higher than the others and it sold for more than that."
Patrick Lynch, San Rafael CA (Seller) Thu, 07 May 2020 04:07:46 +1000
"I’m so happy I found Denise! After two bad experiences with other agents, I called Denise because I knew I wanted someone very experienced and with high-level skills in her trade. You can’t find better than Denise. She listened and worked incredibly hard on my behalf, from minute one. I couldn’t be more impressed with her professionalism. She knows what she’s talking about, and she offers sound guidance. I felt like I didn’t have worry about anything because she was on my side. She’s trustworthy, respected in the community, and very knowledgeable—what else could you want from your agent? Denise is simply the best in Sonoma, no question about it! Highly recommended. Thanks for everything Denise!!!!"
Scott Cohen - Rohnert Park (Buyer) Wed, 06 May 2020 03:32:02 +1000
"Very professional as well as a good listener. Listened to our needs and did her best to help us fulfill them.
Accessible when ever we had questions, concerns, or worries. While the market was not kind to us, she continues to encourage us along the way. Very glad we chose her as our agent."
John Smith, Petaluma CA (Seller) Sat, 25 Apr 2020 07:23:19 +1000
"Tony was great. There was only a short amount of time from when we met, got the house on the market, and the eventual sale and closing. I got what I felt was a good price and was happy with all aspects of Tony's handling of the sale. He stayed in communication throughout the process and was always easy to contact."
Greg Asbell, Kailua-Kona, Hawaii (Seller) Sat, 18 Apr 2020 07:50:15 +1000
"Our family (including my father before me) had considered listing this home several times over several years prior to this listing. Each time Denise made herself available and was helpful in providing information to help us decide whether or not it was the right time to sell the home. This meant that she spent many hours with us doing work that never resulted in compensation for her. As such, when the time came to list the home for sale, Denise was the natural person to help us; because she was already our trusted real estate adviser.
Denise's estimate of the home's value was dead on accurate. She sold the home for the value we wanted in 7 days, during a power outage and a wild fire. She delivered way beyond expectation.
Denise is a perfect example of a professional. She was never intrusive or pushy; but she was always immediately available when we needed her. Her directions and advice were clear and easy to follow and she was reliable, calm, and accessible whenever a difficulty arose."
Matthew N., Petaluma CA (Seller) Wed, 08 Apr 2020 09:01:56 +1000
"Steve Thielsen went above and beyond in handling the sale of our prperty. We couldn't be happier."

"Grissell always made sure she was available to answer any questions I had. She explained every document and made me make arrangements for my move. She made this whole process easy and stress free. I would definitely recommend Grissell to all of my friends and family."
Maria Gabriel, San Rafael CA (Buyer) Mon, 30 Mar 2020 06:17:32 +1000
"Denise work really really hard on selling 2300 Roberts Rd. She kept me up on every showing she had. I love how hard she worked on this property?"
Annette Vanlare (Seller) Sat, 21 Mar 2020 03:37:35 +1000
"Tony Lander had knowledge of the probate process, which we desperately needed. He was confident, extremely empathetic and caring, and gave us clear direction in guidance during a time that we were extremely stressed and overwhelmed. His personality and approach made ALL of the difference in our decision to use him as our broker.
Everything went SO incredibly well. Tony was absolutely spot on in his recommendations for the property renovations, staging, and price point. He was clear in his explanations of process steps at all points, and kept us updated at all times. He offered the agency's assistance in some of the extra costs that came up through their program which was absolutely helpful.
Again..nothing but GREAT things to say about Tony. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone in the area looking for a broker. He goes the extra mile to ensure you get everything you need."
Corrine Sloss (Seller) Fri, 20 Mar 2020 04:56:27 +1000
"She does a great job, accounting and managing every aspect of selling a house. I would do business with her again and have for 3 sales already."
Marcus Hodge, Rohnert Park (Seller) Sat, 07 Mar 2020 07:43:05 +1000
"We asked Robert Ramirez for advice on how to prepare the home for sale about six months before we decided to sell. We did some upgrades as he suggested. When we were ready to sell, we contacted Robert again, and before it even went on the market he already had a buyer with an offer much more than Zillow was estimating. This was the eighth home I've bought and sold (over 40 years), and by far the easiest and best all-around. I have no hesitation in recommending Robert for anyone considering selling their home (or for that matter, buying a home, as he was our original agent some 20 years before)."
Dean Radin, Petaluma (Seller) Fri, 28 Feb 2020 03:41:38 +1000
"We have worked with Karen on three transactions and have been extremely pleased.
We won’t work with anyone else, She is the best real estate agent we have ever worked with. Karen is off the charts excellent! My favorite attribute is how positive and upbeat Karen is. Always in a good mood, happy and ready and willing to go the distance. When we were buying this property 2 years ago, Karen took us to many houses to consider. She never complained about the time or effort she needed to put in to help us find the right property.
Karen did an outstanding job of photographing and videoing our property. The photos were top quality and the video walk through amazing. She advised us on when to start accepting offers to get the best exposure to the market. She kept us informed and updated constantly. She was present at the signing at the title company. She brought in a stager to give us a quote, and we chose to work with that stager and we got excellent results. Karen is an experienced guide through the complexities of the real estate world.
Our home was barely on the market when agents were showing it and we got offers. Multiple offers. In less than a week we were in contract and closed in less than 30 days. The process was smooth and fast!!"
Barbara Sloat and Ken Pedersen DIllon Beach (Seller) Sun, 16 Feb 2020 08:35:14 +1000
"Bill Gabbert is the agent one should consider when selling or if in the process of buying.♥️ You will not be sorry."

"Tony Lander was amazing through the whole deal. He was professional, friendly and on top of everything along the way. It was the very first offer my husband and I put on a house, and because of Tony’s persistence and knowledge we got accepted. It was a dream come true for us. We would recommend Tony to anyone we know wanting to buy or sell their home. He’s the best!"
Nicole & Kyle- Rohnert Park (Buyer) Thu, 09 Jan 2020 13:45:40 +1000
"Eric did a wonderful job helping us to ultimately get a property. He took the time to really understand what we were looking for and to tailor our search to these types of properties. He showed tons of patience and a good sense of humor to help us, as new to the real estate market, in identifying the pros and cons of different properties. His local knowledge was a great asset."
Kathy John, Santa Cruz (Buyer) Thu, 09 Jan 2020 05:15:59 +1000
"Sale went smooth and quickly as possible. Many great offers to select from after only one week of showing. Let agent know what I wanted, and stepped aside to them make it happen. Sale results exceeded expectation."

"Our family has just completed our third experience with Jenny Watson of J+J Real Estate. We bought a condo in 2016, sold that condo in 2019 and then bought our dream home at the end of 2019. Each transaction was near effortless on our end as Jenny worked so hard to accommodate each and every question or need that came up. She was available all the time and I always felt like my questions or concerns were taken care of immediately. This created an overall positive experience each and every time. For a family that works all the time and has a child, the decision to buy a house in an expensive area such as Sonoma County can be daunting at best. The support I received from Jenny was incredible and now I am in the home of my dreams. We feel so lucky to have found such a one in a billion agent such as Jenny. Thank you so much!"
Siara Goyer, Santa Rosa (Buyer) Thu, 19 Dec 2019 04:29:11 +1000
"I'm very happy that we found Marianne and she was available to work with us. I would happily recommend her to anyone who might be looking to purchase a home in the area."
Connie and Tom Favell (Buyer) Tue, 17 Dec 2019 11:20:09 +1000
"Grissell was amazing. She worked around my extremely hectic schedule to show me any and all properties I wanted to see. She was very quick to get all the paperwork done and because of that, we were able to close escrow in 20 days. The process could not have gone any smoother."

on our behalf with two properties.
We highly recommend Bill's superb services!"

"Bill Gabbert is the consummate professional. He was always available, and on time for calls and appointments. Bill Gabbert had exceptional local knowledge of our neighborhood and of the market to price our home right. He has extensive local contacts and relationships with other realtors to help get the word out about our home. I would highly recommend Bill Gabbert as your realtor."
Patrick Williams, Austin, Tx (Seller) Tue, 10 Dec 2019 07:50:59 +1000
"Thank you Steve. You made the home buying process for and easy"
John Reeves Santa Rosa (Buyer) Mon, 02 Dec 2019 18:24:37 +1000
"Tony Lander was amazing to work with during this very exciting yet stressful time. Tony came highly recommended from a friend but it was his experience, knowledge and expertise that won us over and helped us successfully navigate the process of buying our first home. What we love most about Tony is he listened and understood our needs, fought for what we wanted, and never pushed us into a decision. Most importantly he was very patient and went above and beyond explaining the ins and outs of home ownership given that we were very green as first time home buyers. We will most definitely recommend Tony to our friends and family and we hope to work with him again in the future."
Ashley, Petaluma CA (Buyer) Wed, 27 Nov 2019 11:52:06 +1000
"Century 21 has an excellent reputation. In the times we have moved with the help of a Century 21 agent, we have enjoyed outstanding service. Purchasing a home can be a very stressful process but Lolli Evenich, with competence and caring, took the stress out of our moving process.
Lolli Evenich is motivated by unselfish concern for her clients. It was clear from the start that her primary goal was for us to be comfortable with the process and happy with the result. She was highly recommended to us by friends who sang her praises. And now we join the chorus!
Lolli guided us through the entire purchasing process with competence and sensitivity. She is the ultimate real estate professional."

Andrea coleman Rohnert park (Buyer) Sun, 10 Nov 2019 14:27:45 +1000
"Through the whole transaction Karen was awesome very helpful with selling of the first property to the purchase of the second. If she did not know the answer she always found the correct answer. As the process of a 1031exchange is sometimes very complicated.
Karen was fantastic through everything."
Sue Weiss ,Novato (Buyer) Sun, 10 Nov 2019 01:40:30 +1000
"When we began the process of purchasing our first home, we wanted someone who was professional and knowledgeable about Petaluma. Daniella was recommended by a friend with these traits in mind.
When we started the process with her, we immediately discovered that Daniella was accessible and easy to talk to, and at the same time was someone we felt comfortable with trusting throughout the process. Additionally, Daniella was focused, very well organized and made us feel like her only client, something that is important for first-time buyers who can feel intimidated by the prospect of purchasing a home. She was respectful, understood what we wanted, and never talked down to us.
Overall, we had an excellent experience. You hear a lot of horror stories about first-time home-buying and we had an overload of opinions filter in from friends and family. This was not nearly as bad as some of the stories we heard - not just because we located a home quickly, but because we had a professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated agent to guide us through the process. I could not recommend Daniella any higher."
Dave Anderson, Petaluma (Buyer) Mon, 04 Nov 2019 06:37:32 +1000
"This was a very easy transaction thanks to Bill and his RE knowledge."
Bob Whitlock (Seller) Sat, 02 Nov 2019 12:03:49 +1000
"Luis did an excellent job in assisting us to sell our house and to get the house that we love. He always kept us updated with everything that was going on. Always available to answer for questions. We would definitely use his service again if needed.Very satisfied with selling and buying experience."
Shirley, Santa Rosa Ca. (Buyer) Fri, 01 Nov 2019 13:25:18 +1000
"I came into this process somewhat naive and didn't have my own agent when I viewed the unit. Fortunately for me, someone recommended Denise.
Denise made herself available for my many, frequently clueless questions. She had great advice, was very patient, explained the process thoroughly, and negotiated a great deal for me with a minimum of back-and-forth. Her knowledge of the area and her experience were invaluable.
Denise was great. You just can't understate how valuable experience is in a situation like this. She handled everything so seamlessly, even ushering me through a critical part of this process while I was halfway around the world. She was relaxed and friendly, gave great advise, and made it all look easy.
Can't speak highly enough of this experience. What a relief to have found such a competent, trustworthy agent!"
Frances, Petaluma (Buyer) Mon, 28 Oct 2019 13:32:13 +1000
"Karen Karlow is very diligent in performing her duties as a real estate agent. She stays right on top of every aspect of the transaction to make sure that everything goes smoothly. Karen also updates her client on all showings of the home and follows up with every other agent that shows house to get additional feedback and promptly answer any questions. Karen was also very helpful in recommending some staging of the house and determining the correct listing price. All of Karen's attributes that i have described resulted in the successful sale of my home."
Jim in Marin County (Seller) Mon, 21 Oct 2019 04:08:00 +1000
"Totally top drawer professionalism. Jim remembers and thinks of all of the things you don’t. A bottomless resource of ideas and services."

"Denise worked tirelessly to find us the best home within our budget. Once we found the place, she then negotiated us a great purchase price below the appraised value.
We will highly recommend her to our friends and acquaintances looking in this area."
Penny & Dave, Rohnert Park (Buyer) Fri, 11 Oct 2019 09:41:32 +1000

"Rich is the only agent I would ever use. He is always in touch and his follow up is amazing. His personality is easy going and he gets the job done."
Kevin Byrne. Petaluma (Seller) Sun, 08 Sep 2019 04:10:12 +1000
"Bill always kept COTS current of the purchase process and no detail was too small or immaterial to Bill. He was also very easy to work with
Bill is the best. He follows up and does what he says he is going to do.
Whenever we went to the office to meet with Bill, Century 21 staff were always polite and friendly.
Bill and Karl are the consummate professionals and understands COTS and our needs better than most."
Chuck Fernandez, CEO, COTS (Buyer) Wed, 04 Sep 2019 04:09:48 +1000
"Evan helped walk us through purchasing our first house. The process was not straight forward as there was an old barn on the property that we wanted to convert into an additional dwelling. Without the ability to convert that barn into an ADU, buying the house would not have made sense for us long term. Evan knows the ins and outs of working with the city and helped us navigate their system to find the answers we needed. He spent numerous hours helping us do research at the City offices and was there every step of the way to ask the right questions. Ultimately, I would not have felt comfortable going through this process with anyone else.
Upon winning the bid, which was not easy as there were multiple offers on the house, we uncovered a couple of things Evan had pointed out we might find. They were large issues that needed a lot of thought and attention. Evan stepped in again with research, coordination, inspections and then negotiations with the owner. Finally, we were all able to reach a final agreement that worked for everyone. if we had another agent that wasn’t as creative, knowledgeable or diligent, the deal might not have gone through. We are now happily settling into our new home!
I can't recommend Evan enough. Whether it’s your first house or an investment , Evan will get the job done and shoulder the stress when deadlines, negotiations and research loom. He’ll do it in a timely, calm fashion while answering all your questions and being a tireless advocate for your needs."

Victor Sperry, Sammamish, WA (Seller) Fri, 23 Aug 2019 06:51:19 +1000
"Tony was great! I had moved before this house was ready to be put on the market, so Tony handled all the day-to-day stuff with repairs, inspections, staging, etc. He made it easy for me not to worry so much about what was going on. He definitely went above and beyond. I would highly recommend Tony Lander."
Karren, San Rafael (Seller) Sat, 17 Aug 2019 04:06:34 +1000
"Tony did a great job with this property. The property presented unique problems and Tony was always there with suggestions to get as much out of the property as possible. Couldn't ask for a better agent. Thanks!"
Karren, Vallejo (Seller) Sat, 17 Aug 2019 03:57:43 +1000
"Tony and Kathy Arcuri worked tirelessly to help us sell our property, including interacting with the tenant about things which should have been the obligation of Century 21 Bundesen property management. Their goal was to meet our goals to the extent possible.
With all of the problems, they were a constant source of calm and reassurance, and their honesty and availability throughout the process helped lessen the stress involved. They recognized and acknowledged the non-business aspects of this transaction, allowing us to find our way through the process. Although that probably meant more interaction, they were always there for us and never made us feel that they were doing anything that was beyond the scope of their representation. We felt like they took care of us as they would take care of family and friends. Their service was above and beyond."
Les E, MI (Seller) Thu, 15 Aug 2019 22:46:41 +1000
"Lolli provided in depth realator service and her deep knowledge of trust sales helped my siblings and I navigate our parents estate sale which is much more complicated than a normal home sale.
Thank you!"

"Christine was polite, positive, understanding, patient. She listened to what I wanted and needed. She provided tours in a prompt and professional manner. Her experience and expertise of the market was outstanding. I highly recommend and appreciate her."
Angelin Rosenberry (Buyer) Sun, 11 Aug 2019 11:44:01 +1000
"We were impressed with the time she spent with us on the property introducing herself and her marketing plan. She was very easy to communicate with and we were immediately comfortable with her.
We are seasoned real estate investors, but Denise was a great "value add," even recommending people to help prepare the property and taking care of little tasks and errands we expected to have to do ourselves.
Always available. Always ready with a helpful strategy at every turn.
The entire process was very easy on our end. Denise handily dealt with the typical escrow twists and turns."
Tino Serrano, Novato (Seller) Sun, 11 Aug 2019 05:35:50 +1000
"Bill Gabbert is a consummate professional in his work. He pays extraordinary attention to detail and we think Bundesen is lucky to have him. We were equally lucky!"
Richard Riccardi (Seller) Wed, 31 Jul 2019 03:53:03 +1000
"We put our total trust into Charlene Pasion to sell our home. We moved to Arizona while Charlene not only watched over our home but she made sure that Century 21's market ready program was in place and monitored at all times. Charlene scheduled the painters, carpet layers and the stager, then she made sure they did their best jobs to completion. If cleaning needed to be done then Charlene got to work. Our neighbors sent us a picture of Charlene mowing our lawn.
Due to Century 21's market ready program we were able to finance our cost for the carpet and painters to be paid at close of escrow. Implementing this Market ready program and because Charlene worked so hard to see it through, this made our home more then ready to sell and also helped our home sell for $42,000 over asking price. Charlene knocked it our of the park. We left our entire home in Charlene's hands, but we listened and followed her instructions because we trusted her whole heartedly. Charlene did not let us down throughout the process and we know we can always count on her to have our backs and fight for us when ever needed. We are happy we sold our home and moved to Arizona to retire, but we will dearly miss Charlene and her passion."

"Rebecca Celli helped me sell my parent's house after their deaths. She was knowledgeable about the neighborhood, getting the house ready for sale, took care of minor repairs and the inspections, and walked us through the closing process. She was responsive and helpful and made the entire process go very smoothly."

Sarah Fleming, Petaluma (Buyer) Fri, 19 Jul 2019 04:44:17 +1000
"Marsha Harris has an impressive track record, long experience working with older adults in transition, and in-depth knowledge of our community. In addition she is remarkably quick to respond to questions, a great listener, and a very clear communicator. She went the second mile in marketing our place, in so many ways, and we sold our home in three weeks. We truly appreciate Marsha’s expertise and warm heart, and recommend her enthusiastically."
Paul and Anne Greenblatt, Petaluma, CA (Seller) Mon, 01 Jul 2019 03:33:58 +1000
"Steve really took the time to make sure I was comfortable with my new home. Being that it's kind of a country property there were some things I'd never dealt with before (100 year old water rights agreements, private road maintenance agreements, well water and septic). He knew all about the things that are common for country properties, and did a lot of research on the old permits and agreements, to make sure I really knew what I was getting into.
I was thankful for all the meticulous work, but also had a lot of fun with Steve cruising around and checking out properties."
Dustin, Penngrove (Buyer) Sun, 30 Jun 2019 04:48:02 +1000

"We had a complex separation with two of the sellers in different states and one traveling and on a retreat. We had complex issues with the house meanwhile and Tony Lander was a keen strategists, honest and straightforward and he acted as the glue to these complexities seal the deal. He really was a super realtor!!!"
Melissa Moore petaluma CA (Seller) Sat, 22 Jun 2019 04:16:37 +1000
"Steve was easy to deal with, and very good at keeping us updated on the progress of the sellers' thinking, and making sure we engaged them in a way to achieve a positive result.
He was very attentive to all the details we needed to get it done right for our particular requirements, which included a 1031 exchange. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking for real estate services in Marin."
John Gross, Berkeley (Buyer) Sat, 15 Jun 2019 10:07:14 +1000
"My wife and I originally met Tony a couple of years ago when we were checking out open houses to see if we wanted to get into the market. As soon as we started talking with Tony we knew we were in good hands and would be taken care of. We started the process with Tony to see what we could get qualified for and what it would take to sell our place and decided to hold off for a little bit. Tony stayed in touch, but wasn't over bearing at all or try to pressure us into the market, even when we reached out to him a second time to look at going on the market. Once we were finally in a good spot we reached out to Tony again and it was like we had just spoken the day before! Tony put together a SOLID plan on what needed to be done to the property we wanted to sell. He put us in contact with great and trustworthy group of vendors (Home Inspector, House cleaner, General contractor, etc). He made sure that while we were gearing up to get the place on the market we were getting approved for a loan and set us up to get daily emails on places within our parameters of what we wanted to buy. Once we were approved and our place was on the market we starting activley going out and looking at all options. Tony always made sure to make us feel heard and answer any questions we had, no matter how off the wall they were! One of the things we most appreciated was Tony knew when and how to have some of the hard conversations, he was always a professional and always made sure we knew what to expect so we were not caught off guard or confused on what came next in the process. When we sold our place he worked hard to get our offer accepted on a place we really liked and made it happen. The entire time he made sure we and everyone else involved with the sale and purchased was kept in the loop and on the same page. He busts his butt 24/7, you would be crazy to go with a different realtor!"
Daniel Johnson, Cotati (Seller) Sat, 08 Jun 2019 05:27:02 +1000
"Charlene made a very emotional and difficult time in my life so much easier. Selling a home and buying another simultaneously is hard, but Charlene made it easy. She kept me updated and informed every step of the way. Not only that, she gave me excellent advice and protected my interests. I can’t think of a better partner to have while buying and selling a home!"

"Marianne has once again done an outstanding job. She kept going strong during bad weather, slow market etc to see that we sold at a price which was good for us. She is quick to respond to frequent calls from us and analyzed our situation to achieve the best results. Thank you Marianne."

"Buying a home is stressful, using an agent that doesn't understand your needs or simply is not user friendly adds to that stress. That is why we chose Karen, she was simply awesome in every aspect of the process. From truly learning about us and our needs, to diving deep in to the VA paperwork process and finding out what we could and couldn't do. I can not imagine a better person to have teamed up with. Karen is kind, understanding, and has some of the best communication skills/timeliness I've seen. If you want to buy a home and work with a person that will easily lead you through the process, then you truly need to work with Karen."

"We were very pleased with all aspects of Jim’s help in showing us properties, and securing the property once we made a decision. Jim made the complete process fairly effortless and we truly enjoyed working with him."

"I can't speak highly enough of my experience with Grissell Lopez. I was a first-time homebuyers with very little knowledge about how to find the right place. She is honest and quick to respond, and she really helped to take the pressure off.
I never felt forced to make an offer and when I finally found the "one" and ended up in a bidding war, Grissell walked me through every step of the negotiations, even suggesting that we write a letter to the sellers to explain why we thought they should choose me. It was an unconventional approach but it worked and I thank Grissell for that every day! I will always recommend Grissell to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.All I can say is watch out Sonoma county this little lady is on the rise and isn’t afraid to fight for you and your family needs Highly recommend people to give her a call you will not be disappointed."

"Evan was an invaluable resource for me during my home purchase and I often relied on his wealth of experience and knowledge. He was always able to give useful answers to my many questions and suggest the best course of action going forward. His attention to detail helped uncover several important issues during the inspection process, like correct property lines. Evan also followed up with the county and potential neighboring construction sites to get all important information. In general, Evan made the whole process very smooth for me. I would definitely recommend Evan to any friends and family looking to buy or sell a property."

"at first phone call to bundesen realty, bill answered the phone. he listened well and was not pushy. within a very short time, he followed through by coming to the property for a look, without being intrusive.
bill could not have been a better agent to deal with this particular sale. in addition, we worked well together. communication could not have been better. follow through on a myriad of issues and tasks was over the top.
bill was able to make a difficult sale go as best as it could have. i cannot imagine working with a better agent. he met all the important needs a seller could have. his excellent communication and follow-through, coupled with a quiet demeanor, and years of professional experience and know how, were invaluable."

"The process of selling our home with Charlene passion was both rewarding and gratifying. My wife and I would not hesitate to recommend her services to both buyers and sellers."
Mike young (Seller) Fri, 03 May 2019 05:42:36 +1000
"We had used Bundesen for a rental previously and had a very good experience. Tony was the agent on duty when we came in looking for an agent to help us buy a house. We had a good feeling about Tony right away and immediately enjoyed working with him.
We very much appreciated Tony's continuous updates to let us know what was going on."
Jay Monahan, Petaluma (Buyer) Thu, 02 May 2019 04:28:27 +1000
"Linda was very kind, understanding, and professional. She listened to what we wanted, made a list of all our needs, and found a house that clicked all the boxes. Linda was patient with us and very professional. She gave us ideas we hadn't considered and guided us to the best house for us.
The most gratifying thing is that she took us through the process one step at a time and never were we intimidated by long lists of items on an agenda. Linda made us feel like we were part of the Century 21 family and we were working together on this project.
In the end Linda found us a place to live that suited all our needs and dreams. She ultimately led us to what we believe is not just another house but a home in which we will enjoy for the rest of our lives."

"Robert was a pleasure to work with on selling my mother's property. It was really difficult for me as I live out of state, Robert took care of everything and kept me in the loop at all times. Should I ever move back to California I would certainly obtain Robert's expertise in assisting me in finding me my next home."
Wendy Gee, Houston, TX (Seller) Sat, 27 Apr 2019 05:50:06 +1000
"As a first-time buyer, Linda was great at explaining all of the little details: what we should look for, how the process worked, and also the reason that each step was happening/beneficial to us. She is so friendly and understanding and made a sometimes stressful and overwhelming process as easy and fun as possible!"
Spencer Hall, Petaluma (Buyer) Fri, 26 Apr 2019 14:35:47 +1000
"I was looking for a rental and the rental agent referred me to Denise. The agent must have spoken to Denise about me, because Denise called the next day and we discussed my personal situation. Then I scheduled an apt. with her to talk about the sale of my house. She was ALWAYS very attentive to my needs, friendly, professional, courteous, etc. She was the PERFECT person to sell my house. She is also a wonderful person and now I consider her a friend. We had kind of an emotional and sticky situation, lots of variables during the sale, and she dealt with everything like a pro. And the things she said, were factual and reasonable. She was not full of hot air like some salespeople I know. And she did not pressure us in any way to spend money to get the house ready. She even helped us to stage it with her own personal items. I believe she went above and beyond. She was available to us anytime of the day or night. She gets the highest praise from me. The most stars. I would totally recommend her to anyone. I feel fortunate to have found her."
Tina, Petaluma (Seller) Mon, 08 Apr 2019 04:15:53 +1000
"My experience with Denise Lucchesi was 100% positive. I was trying to buy a house in another state while trying to sell my house. Needless to say, my stress level was off the chart! Denise talked me through everything so that I could easily understand the process. If I didn't understand something, it didn't matter how many times I had to reach out to her, she always got back to me quickly and with so much patience. I would definitely recommend Denise to any one needing a real estate agent. She's one of a kind and I would not have wanted to go through this with anyone else!"

"David Thomas was recommended highly by someone we knew.
His positive energy left us feeling totally safe leaving the state to our new house with our Sonoma home in his hands.
We are thrilled with all phases of the sale and all the people involved. David knew just what to do and when to do it.
I was so comfortable and he took all my stress away about trying to pack up and move and still take care of Ventana's cleaning, touch ups, handyman work. David took it all on his shoulders and we left with no worries."
Sierra Rose, Spokane Washington (Seller) Tue, 26 Mar 2019 09:21:58 +1000
"Steve is a very knowledgeable real estate agent and we felt very comfortable working with him. He went above and beyond and we will only use Steve for future property purchases. We will recommend him if we hear of anyone that is looking to buy a home. We have actually referred him to a few people and they were very happy with him too."
Lacey Torkelson Smith, Petaluma CA (Buyer) Sat, 23 Mar 2019 08:50:56 +1000
"Lolli went above and beyond in making my first home purchase one of the most memorable and rewarding experiences I could have asked for. She took the time to understand my wants and needs, always having my best interest in mind throughout the entire process. There is no other agent that I trust more! I feel extremely lucky to have been able to share this experience with Lolli and am looking forward to working with her again in the future."

"First impression was that David had a lot of experience as a realtor and that he enjoyed his work. A very warm and winning personality.
Can't imagine the process having gone any easier. There were no problems.
Thoroughly enjoyed working with David. He made purchasing a house easy.
All was good"

"I would recommend Jim Lanatti to other investors because when I told him that I did not have the cash on hand to purchase the property for all cash, he found a way to make the deal work anyway. He recommended a finance company that could not only fund a high percentage of the purchase of the property but remarkably, the repairs to both houses that I purchased as well. I would not have been able to purchase what I believe is one of the best business decisions I have made in recent years if I had used another agent that did not think outside the box."
Gary Miller (Buyer) Sun, 24 Feb 2019 07:47:00 +1000
"Anyone needing to buy/sell in Sonoma County should work with Steve Thielsen. It's just crazy how responsive and communicative he is. There were even times when he answered his phone while out in the country in rubber boots inspecting ranch property, and while up on top of his own house working on his roof! Contact Steve - you will be so happy you did!!!"

"Bill was referred to us by a friend we trusted. We could not have asked for a better agent. He explained things and kept us updated every step of the way. He was the best agent anyone could have asked for."
Gary Magnelli Petaluma CA (Seller) Sun, 17 Feb 2019 05:46:51 +1000
"Charlene guided first time buyers, our son and his fiancé, step by step with their new home purchase. Charlene was always pleasant and accommodating, being available to show houses when it was convenient for all of us. She would thoroughly research an issue with a house and have a quick response.
Charlene was faced with the task of coordinating a multitude of issues with all of us (my son and his fiancé, my husband and myself), always handling everything in a timely manner. She was pleasant and professional at all times."
Donna Higgins, Sonoma County (Buyer) Fri, 08 Feb 2019 09:45:28 +1000
"I can’t recommend Charlene enough! We met Charlene at an open house in Petaluma well into our house search. We were looking all around Petaluma, Santa Rosa, and up as far as Guerneville. My wife and I immediately just had a good feeling about her. We had met a few other realtors but didn’t feel a connection or wanted to commit to anyone. But we just kept calling Charlene and asking her to go to open houses with us. We couldn’t be happier with our experience all around. She made the entire house buying experience palatable and as least stressful as is possible. She understood and listened to our needs. She told us her reservations when it seemed too expensive for what it was or if there was a problem. That really made us trust her. She drove out to see a place on her own when we were too far away even. After coming in second on a house with over a dozen bids and saying no a bunch, we were discouraged but Charlene was always optimistic and confident that we would find a place.... then guess what... we found our perfect little place in Petaluma. Fixer upper but we could afford it and right at the end of our negotiation, she saw an opportunity with further inspections and fought to save us a ton of money at the very end. Didn’t help her, only us. We couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you so so much Charlene! We got super lucky finding you. You should have a line out the door"

"Bill Gabbert was a complete pleasure to work with throughout the whole process of our home purchase. He was always easy to contact, had answers right away, and was most flexible when meeting to look at potential properties. I would definitely work with him again and recommend him to all."

"I had met Tony Lander before at a BBQ at my daughters and loved his energy and family ties. Tony gave his professional advice and was willing to listen to my opinions as well. We were both blown away at a 5 day sale as well as an offer of 22K over asking!! I told Tony I will set my intentions high and they were certainly met! I give Tony credit to know what works and doesn't work in the Real Estate Market. Thank you so much Tony for a SUCCESSFUL SALE!"
J. Stewart, Rohnert Park, CA (Seller) Thu, 24 Jan 2019 05:47:55 +1000
"When we were ready to buy a home, we didn't think twice, I called Jim Lanatti, who helped me buy a home in 2008. His knowledge, responsiveness, support and sense of humor as we went through the process to find the "perfect home" for us was invaluable. We just closed on our 'dream home' and could not be happier. Give Jim a call, you won't be disappointed."

"Linda Buffo is a fantastic agent and helped us finally purchase our first home. She was responsive, caring, and generous throughout every step of the process. She also has industry knowledge that allowed us to understand the market better to make sure our largest investment was worthwhile and sound. Couldn’t recommend anyone better!"
Ryan Lee (Buyer) Fri, 04 Jan 2019 03:44:27 +1000
"Robert Ramirez went beyond and above necessary activity due to unfortunate experience with a former Broker! He took personal interest in closing the sale quickly and profitably under difficult circumstances."
J.M. Weber, Santa Rosa, CA (Seller) Thu, 03 Jan 2019 11:31:19 +1000
"Sandi Sullivan did a terrific job in finding us a new house that met our specific needs.
Linda Buffo was thoughtful and caring. We loved working with her and Sandi- what a great team! We felt understood and taken care of every step of the way. I've already recommended them to a friend! Thank you for all of your hard work!"

"Steve Thielsen is a wonderful realtor.
He recently served as my buyer’s representative, helping me complete a complicated deal I had been dreaming about for years, involving a 1031 exchange, with tenants in my exchange property, and the need for financing on an undeveloped land purchase, to name a few of the challenges.
Steve designed and negotiated the deal in a way that protected my interests and managed every step of the process in a kind and thoughtful manner. As many of Steve’s reviews here highlight, he will proactively deliver that something extra you need—in my case spending a whole day on the planned purchase property overseeing well tests and taking us on an introductory visit to the County of Sonoma Permit and Resource Management Department, as two examples.
Most remarkable to me, since I am also a professional services provider, I gained valuable lessons from Steve about what great communication, high ethical standards and exceptional service quality in a business setting really look like.
I stumbled across Steve when we called CENTURY 21 Bundesen one day, and Steve happened to be the one who took the call. On a holiday—he’s like that. Don’t leave your dreams to chance. Just call Steve Thielsen."
