From our first meeting, Candice made sure that we were taken care of. This process can be very scary at times, and this is why you need someone like her by your side. She made sure we were able to understand every step of the process, receive guidance when needed, ask questions whenever we needed to, and have peace of mind that we had somebody fighting for what we needed and wanted. I cannot recommend Candice enough, she will make sure that this emotional process produces the results that you are hoping for, she is extremely knowledgeable, caring, responsive, attentive, and most importantly; relentless in getting you what you want and need. Thank you Candice! We could have not done it without you!

In late 2021, my wife and I came to the realization that we were finally financially prepared to buy a home-- at 2018 prices. In about three years, it seemed the Santa Ynez Valley had gone from a market where one could find a move-in ready house for $750,000 to a place where fixer-uppers were creeping toward the $1 million mark. Moreover, in the spring of 2022, when we finally got our down payment ducks in a row, mortgage interest rates were on the rise and threatening to price us out of a market that had limited housing inventory. We did not want to leave the Valley, as it had been our home since completion of graduate school and the place where our eight-year-old son had lived his entire life. But, even as we met Candice to tour the few homes that approximated our target price, we felt that we would likely remain renters if we hoped to remain local. Nonetheless, through the entire house-hunting process, Candice never steered us toward homes that were outside of our parameters (an affordable three bedroom in the valley, preferably with a yard). And the second that houses came on the market (and sometimes before they came on the market) we were sure to get texts or phone calls from Candice to inform us. She was equally quick to respond to any questions we shot in her direction. Particularly impressive about Candice was her extensive knowledge of market conditions, home construction, and the Santa Ynez valley in general. She raised her kids here, and we could tell that her knowledge of the area stemmed from the community roots she had established. After responding quite competently to my many anxiety-driven questions for about two months, Candices tenacity paid off. We toured a home that needed work but met almost all the items on our checklist. It had three bedrooms and an amazing yard, which came with fruit trees and a spectacular hillside view as bonuses. The asking price, however, was a challenge. After consulting with Candice, we threw a Hail Mary offer for $100,000 less than the seller was asking. The sellers agent asked for more, but Candice proved herself to be tough negotiator and stuck to our asking price, never coming to us with a counter offer from the seller. In early May, the home was ours. For the past few weeks, we have been working in the yard, cleaning, installing flooring, and painting. Pretty soon, this fixer-upper will be move-in ready. In months to come, it will be the home of our dreams. We have Candice to thank for it.

Candice is made out of sunshine! From the moment I first spoke with her on the phone, I knew we were lucky to have found someone as warm and genuine as her. We found our dream home for sale but didn?t think there was any way we had a chance at getting it, as we were just browsing and not yet prequalified. She worked tirelessly to keep us calm, informed, and to make sure it was ours. What?s more, she mirrored our excitement and joy throughout it all! She showed a great deal of love and respect for our small daughters and always made us feel that we were her top priority. She felt like family from day one. Her incredible expertise, patience, guidance, and kindness truly go above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. She continued to reach out long after closing escrow just to let us know she was here for us. Candice has our highest recommendation - and we are thrilled to be her new neighbors!

Selling your home comes with many emotions. I was scared, nervous, didnt know a thing about all the legalities that came with selling a home, but I was also excited to start my adventure in a new state. I wanted a realtor that I could trust to handle 100% of all aspects. A realtor that when I called with a question or just needed reassuring that everything was going to be ok, Candice was there all the way. With her 25+ years experience she will get you top $$$ for your property. Not only did she sell my home, she also went above and beyond to do research and talk to the realtor I was working with in my new state. She wanted to make sure I was being taken care of honestly and professionally. If this is your first time working with Candice, I can promise you, that you will walk away with a new friend. I love Candice.....and you will too

Candice was not only our realtor, she was a friend, a therapist and a mother hen over our transaction from beginning until end. We had to sell our current home and purchase another. We had a very difficult time with the buyers of our current property. Many times I would call Candice in tears and she would talk me off the ledge. She always remain calm and positive throughout the entire transaction. She also has a huge amount of knowledge with regards to the areas in which she work. She recommended contractors, restaurants, Pet Sitters, our home loan people and places for us to stay in the meantime. Every single time I asked Candice a question I received an immediate answer. When showing us property she was incredibly honest. She never tried to force us into a purchase. As a matter of fact with one particular house she pointed out the noise level of the street. I found her to be very genuine and forthright. She was there for me completely. Always returned calls promptly and or texts. She never once left me hanging. I truly believe that without Candice we wouldve never made it through this difficult transaction with the buyers of our property. When beginning to look in the area for a home she sat down with us and asked us exactly what we wanted in a home. She drove us around to numerous areas just to try to get an idea of what we were looking for. She nailed it and we found a beautiful home that had everything we were looking for. I would highly recommend Candice and will recommend her to anyone I know who is buying a home in the future.

She gave us great advice on how to get our home in condition needed to list, took great photos of our home for listing, and staged our home beautifully. Candice was the prefect fit for us and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire home selling process.

Candice was THE BEST realtor we could have asked for! As first time homebuyers, she made the entire process extremely low stress, fluid, and was extremely thorough. I would recommend Candice in a hot second! She is extremely knowledgeable of both real estate verbiage and how the process works, as well as the area! Thank you, Candice, for helping us purchase our first home.
