ZillowVERIFIEDLauren is amazing! We were looking for a house in Carpinteria or Ventura while we were living in Northern California. Lauren was our eyes/ears and feet on the ground and she did a great job! She took the time to pre-tour homes for us and send us videos. Once we went into contract she met all the inspectors for us then relayed the findings. She got quotes from contractors for the things we wanted to change. She is professional, friendly and her communication is awesome. I'm so glad we put our trust in her.
ZillowVERIFIEDLauren Dulcich and Ali Evans recently represented me and my two siblings in selling our family home in Santa Barbara, and exceeded all expectations. We interviewed four recommended agents, and chose Ali and Lauren for their preparedness, vision for our house, enthusiasm and great communication skills. They asked us how we wanted to communicate and how often, and did exactly as we asked, keeping the three of us informed at every step. I was impressed and thrilled with their project management abilities - I live in WA and they contacted and met with stagers, contractors, cleaners, home inspectors, painters, etc to ensure all the upgrades we discussed happened in a timely and efficient manner. When minor unexpected issues came up, they pointed out the pros and cons of the options, and make a recommendation on the path forward. They also recommended lighting fixtures, mirrors and other equipment we installed, complete with links for me to easily order and have delivered. I also really appreciated their council on the upgrades and minor fixes we needed to decide on. They explained which issues really should be addressed, which ones were optional, and others that would likely not affect the selling price and didn't need to be done, or could just be disclosed. Following their advice likely increased the ultimate selling price $100,000+ and saved us nearly as much from fixing things that didn't really need to be fixed or upgraded. I felt they did an excellent job of marketing our house online and through traditional media. The photographer they chose did an excellent job presenting our house in the best light. Lastly, I felt they did a thorough and spot-on analysis in pricing the house, which led to multiple offers, and eventually a second round of bidding which they guided us through. I wholeheartedly would recommend Lauren and Ali to anyone looking to sell their home in the Santa Barbara area - they are real pros you can trust, and made the experience positive and even fun.
ZillowVERIFIEDLauren did an outstanding job! As a new home buyer the process felt daunting but with her help it felt seem less. She is insanely responsive and was informative about tactics related to the negotiation of the house/ escrow. With her help I learned a lot and was able successfully go through the process unscathed with significant problems. Thanks again Lauren!
ZillowVERIFIEDLauren is awesome! She worked hard to find us properties that met our requirements, communicated clearly and responded immediately to any of our inquiries. Also, after the sale, she was very helpful in finding local contractors to perform work we wanted to have done. Those contractors were great as well. Contact Lauren if you're looking for properties in the Santa Barbara area!
ZillowVERIFIEDThe time had come for me to move out of Santa Barbara. I had a nice low end condo in Carpinteria that was a bit tired, and I wanted to get the most equity as I could out of it so I could fund a new purchase elsewhere. I had been an acquaintance of Lauren for a few years via SBYPC, and found her knowledgeable, intelligent and motivated, so I thought she would be a good option to advise me on what I needed to do to get it ready for sale, and then find the best buyer for the property. Little did I know! Her design expertise made it clear that not only should she list and sell my condo, but she became my primary interior designer on the project as well. This was not a small project either. It involved a complete bathroom remodel including tiling the shower, floor, new vanity and new lighting; entirely new kitchen with new cabinets, counter space, floor tile, laundry area, appliances and pantry; modernized fireplace hearth and mantel, and new paint and floor covering everywhere. When it hit the market, we had a buyer within weeks, and one who absolutely fell in love with the place. We got nearly $100k more than the estimate of value in the condo's original form prior to renovation, and nearly $50k more than the nicest similar sale previous to mine. I would give a enthusiastic recommendation to anyone for them to use Lauren to help them buy or sell their property. Although my condo was worth under $1m, she treated the transaction as if it were a $10m property.
