Leslie is absolutely the BEST realtor that we have ever used. Technically, she was my parents realtor, but I was involved through much of it, multiple times before and after escrow. I have
bought and sold 5 homes, my parents over 10.
One of the problems my parents were having was finding a realtor who could truly market their upscale home and
bring people in for showings at a higher price point. Leslie did a fantastic job bringing people in and was extremely
creative in her marketing.
Leslie is also extremely communicative, Honest, and super nice! We never heard her promising things she couldn't deliver (unlike other realtors). Even if she wrote an email, if there was important information to convey, she always called my parents to explain things. If you contacted her, she followed up and a very timely manner,
often far quicker than expected....... We cannot recommend Leslie enough. Not
only do I think she is the best realtor in Modesto, I think she must be one of the best realtors in the state!

We can't say enough good things about our home buying and selling
experience with Leslie as our realtor.
She is market savvy, determined and had our best interests at heart throughout the process. Leslie patiently showed us dozens of properties, always making us feel like her only client. She never pressured us, but when we finally found the home for us, she ensured we got it! She worked with the sellers' agent to find out what terms would be most enticing to them and drafted the perfect offer that was accepted within an hour of submitting. When we got into escrow on both of our properties, we had an unforeseen hiccup when our first buyer backed out. Without breaking a sweat, Leslie had our home back on the market and multiple offers on the table within 24 hours. Because of her tenacity, we were able to stay in escrow on our new home and gained little to no extra time on our original escrow timeline. Even when we closed escrow, unlike other realtors who might go radio silent, Leslie ensured our rent back experience went smoothly and we got our keys on time. She truly saw the whole process through from start to finish and we couldn't be more grateful.
If you're thinking of buying or selling a home, we wholeheartedly recommend Leslie!
