Working with Nichole on the purchase of our home was a fantastic experience. We truly cant say enough about her! Nichole was knowledgeable, patient, helpful and informative. From start to finish, she continued to bring value and make the process of finding a home feel manageable. We have worked with many other realtors in the past, and our experience with Nichole has been the best, hands down! Look no further. We highly recommend working with Nichole to find your Napa Valley home!

I cannot recommend Florence and her Agency highly enough to do her incredible efforts justice. I decided to go with Florence after reading her stellar reviews, and knowing intuitively that having someone local to sell my Napa home was vital. Not only was I not dissapointed, I was blown away at the amount of work she put into my home as well as her expert advice given as she guided me through the process. I live out of state, I had two renters to vacate and the house needed so much work! Florence took care of EVERYTHING! I've never had a realtor be so involved, so dedicated and do so much for me. It was a revelation. I didn't have to lift a finger, which came as a huge relief. On top of doing all the hard lifting, Florence developed a plan to generate excitement around my house that would allow for it to sell quickly in an otherwise stagnant market. I had been resistant to some of the things she recommend we do with my previous realtor, but Florence was able to explain the reasons for her suggestions in a way that made me see the sense in them and get on board. Her plan worked flawlessly. The investments I made in a) getting inspections done ahead of listing (no surprises to cause backing out) and b) fixing up and staging beautifully (making the house shine like a gem) and c) listing at a competitive price to generate a bidding war worked like a charm and we had an offer within hours at $50,000 above asking to secure the deal. I followed her advice even when part of me wanted to do less, invest less and ask for more, because I felt I could really trust her judgment. And it worked. She did all the work. I signed a few documents. I'm still in shock at how flawlessly the plan worked. It took less than 30 days from renters vacating to listing and getting the offer. I could never recommend Florence highly enough. She was just incredible. Oh!!!! AND she communicated with me everyday, explained every document, and was always available and attentive. If you want THIS experience, go with Florence.

We purchased our first home in April with the help of Florence as our realtor. We could not have asked for a better experience as first-time homebuyers with Florence on our side. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, prompt, personable, and kept us informed of every detail. As first-time homebuyers we were appreciative that she could explain complex details clearly and educate us about each step, from mortgage pre-approval to closing. Florence went above and beyond as we were on an international vacation when we received the keys and she made sure everything was taken care of while also helping to coordinate getting our floors re-done all while we were out of the country. Since moving in, she has continued to check in and answer any follow up questions we have had. We cannot recommend Florence enough if you are looking for a great agent!

Our daughter who lives in Napa recommended Florence to us and only knew of her through an affiliation with a mutual group. We were selling our home in Encinitas Ca and planning a purchase in Napa. I met with Florence during a weekend visit to discuss priorities and to view a home I had seen online. Florence made me feel comfortable with her from the moment I met her. Her interest to get to know me and what we were looking for in a home was genuine and professional. She knows Napa very well. We viewed several properties and I never felt I had to hold back or edit my responses on what worked and what didnt work for us, I knew she was building our property profile. She kept us notified with properties that were coming soon and allowed the opportunity to decide if we were interested or not. She made us feel like we were her only clients when I definitely knew we werent. She found us a great home that I knew would work for us within 9 days of our arrival. Over this time we got to know a little more about each other. She so easy to work with and was very helpful with recommendations on any vendors and things we might be interested in Napa. I cant say enough about how much we enjoyed and appreciated working with Florence. She was with us literally every step of the way. Shes definitely aEURoetheaEUR? broker/agent you want to work with for selling or purchasing your Napa property!

Florence is an amazing Realtor who is very knowledgeable on the current happenings in the market, which was critical in my search for the best home for me. She truly cared about what was best for me and understood how to best support me in the use of the VA loan in the current market. Florence and her team go above and beyond to ensure that each client feels comfortable and safe in a sometimes stressful process. Florence kept in constant contact with me every step of the way and now I consider her to be a friend and would highly recommend her to anyone looking buy in the Napa Valley.

Nichole is an amazing realtor! She was such a hustler, and she really put in the work. She took the time to get a feel for what my husband and I were looking for and pounced on a spot for us before it hit the market. Though we were initially outbid, Nichole was quick to act when that offer fell through. We ended up closing on the house in our dream location a few weeks ago. She worked tirelessly, pouring through disclosures and inspection reports (multiple, since the initial buyer did a second home inspection!) and explaining everything thoroughly to us. This was refreshing, as previous realtors had merely sent reports without any commentary or guidance. The house has a lot of quirks, so it was not an easy job! We went back and forth with multiple inspections, counter offers, etc. Nichole was super proactive during the escrow period. The following doesn't even convey it all, but she visited the house alone numerous times to check details and take pictures. She spent hours on hold with insurance companies to secure quotes (the house is somewhat rural, so insurance was complicated). She went with my husband to meet city officials for clarification on certain regulations. She took time out of her day to let us into the house about 10 times during the escrow period. She stayed on the phone with us until 9 pm multiple nights as we tried to work out inspections and our financing. She made sure to work within our tight first-time homebuyer budget. She maintained constant communication with the lender to ensure everything was in order for our closing date. She also effectively conveyed to the seller how perfectly suited we were for the property. Really, we can't say enough how wonderful Nichole is and how grateful we are to have found her! She works so hard and is clearly super passionate about what she does.

Florence did an excellent job for us. Her expertise and professionalism are top notch! She has an incredible eye for detail and quickly knew the best way to stage and market the house for sale. She worked hard to negotiate the best deal and closing went smoothly. She knows the local inventory well and is very in tune with today's average Buyer. Merci, Flo!

Nichole Douglas is an amazing relator! She is very kind, knowledgeable, positive, and thorough. She helped us buy our first home together as husband and wife. Nichole was very attentive throughout the entire process. If we had any questions she made sure to answer them as soon as she could. Nichole took the time to make sure we completely understood all the contracts and documents. Which we are so thankful for because they can get overwhelming. Nichole was always thinking one step ahead to make sure that all of our inspections were scheduled within the appropriate timeframes to close escrow on time. Home buying is a very exciting time but can be stressful too. Nichole remained calm and positive which helped us greatly throughout the process. We are so thankful for Nichole and L'AGENCE Napa Valley.
