CaLee and her team are a cut above when it comes to assisting you with a home sale or purchase. Weve used her for both, and in both cases she worked with notable expertise, urgency, patience (with us) and tenacity to help us accomplish our goal. When it comes to preparing your home for sale, she knows what to do and adds a lot of value. When buying, her deal expertise and local knowledge shine. We really appreciate the way CaLee aEURoegoes to workaEUR? on behalf of her clients.

We recently sold our home in Covenant Hills with CaLee and her team, and it was not an easy feat! Working with CaLee was a lifesaver, and we will forever be grateful. From the start, we could tell that CaLee was in a class of her own. She knew the home and neighborhood really well and made IMMEDIATE suggestions for changes that made a lot of sense. Not only did she make those suggestions, but she actually helped us to implement them by taking on the renovation project! While we were traveling, she literally managed the project to update our bathrooms while we were done. The market shifted just as we listed, so the sale took longer than we all expected. However, CaLee fought for us to not only get the deal we deserved, but she worked really well with the buyer's agent to make sure the sale actually happened. We genuinely cannot recommend this team enough. They are professional, knowledgeable, and go above and beyond for their clients!

I would highly recommend CaLee and her team at Monarch Real Estate. I have sold two homes with CaLee and she consistently provides a high level of professionalism, stays current with the latest marketing tools, always listens to me and stays on top of the market. Even during a time when the market was still and prices began to turn, we sold our home for top dollar. She truly has been our partner in real estate. John and Merav, Rancho MIssion VIejo

We couldnt have purchased our home, let alone in this kind of a market, without CaLee! The time she takes with you from the initial meeting all the way up to closing (and even beyond) is unmatched. She communicates every step of the way and goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable during the process. My husband and I were first time buyers and I couldnt have asked for a smoother experience all due to CaLees professionalism, expert guidance and care.

We had a great experience with CaLee on the buy and sell of our home.We started with CaLee by canvassing the luxury, high-end neighborhoods in coastal South County. She was able to help us to identify what we wanted and narrow our focus down to Dana Point and South Laguna Beach. So when the perfect house came available, we were able to jump on it right away. CaLee was able to convince the seller to accept our offer at our original offer price....which was amazing in this market.On the sell side, we then had to move very quickly....and our house was not ready. CaLee was really amazing in her ability to bring an entire team to help whip our house into shape. Within about a week we had landscapers, pool repair, wood replacement, painting, stagers, window cleaners and cabinet repairs all completed. It was amazing how much she was able to transform the house in such a short period of time. We received multiple all cash, full price offers within a few days.Overall we would very strongly recommend CaLee. She has a strong moral compass and is obviously well respected by other realtors, contractors, etc in the market. That credibility really helped us to get the best result possible.

We found CaLee online when looking to relocate from Sydney to California for summer 2021. As everyone knows the housing market was red hot and finding/buying a home was difficult. Also given Covid restrictions, we were buying sight unseen from thousands of miles away. After speaking with CaLee on numerous occasions, we put an offer on a first house but were unsuccessful in our bid. We then decided to turn our attention to homes that needed more updating given we had a few months before our move. CaLee committed to help us in renovating our home and managing the process, while we spoke with her from Australia. It was a huge leap of faith, and a great success story. CaLee was incredible to work with, taking late night calls from Sydney, walking the aisles of flooring stores to pick stone, helping select countertops and fixtures, advising on paint colors, trim, wainscoting, and new wood floors. We spoke almost daily for 4 months. She helped us completely transform our home from 7,500 miles away. We can honestly say that our experience with CaLee was nothing short of amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone near or far looking for a truly one of a kind Realtor.

CaLee is a magician of sorts! She helped me and my husband buy our home which closed in September of 2021. We randomly saw her at an open house and it turns out we had met before. She told us to trust that she can make it happen and she did. She is very knowledgeable about Ladera Ranch and is a very experienced agent. She was actually more than an agent to us - she treated us like family and helped us work through some interesting quarrels during the process. We are grateful for all her help, her patience and her willingness to go to bat for us with the sellers when they were being difficult. It was quite the rollercoaster buying a house during these times but with CaLee right by our sides, it was a success and now we are in our dream home. :) Thank you CaLee and team for all your hard work!!
