Joseph Shaw was our realtor for the sale of our property. I would highly recommend him. He was always available and took care of any issues that came up. We needed to have some work done on the property and he knew just the right people to do it who were very nice professional and reasonably priced. I never had a realtor work as hard to get the home ready and put on the market. If you want a realtor to be easy to get a hold of at anytime and work hard for youaEUR| call Joseph Shaw

ZillowVERIFIEDRita and Joseph were outstanding to work with. Our situation required that we be out of state for almost the entire process and they arranged for everything from cleaning/painting/repairs to trash haul-away and they kept us informed throughout. They are both normal people that are easy to talk and work with, and both have exceptional real estate savvy. We are grateful that we chose them to sell our house for us.

Review for Member: Rita Shaw
ZillowVERIFIEDWeve bought over a half dozen houses, and Rita may be the best agent weve ever had. She puts in the work. Her market analysis put our home at a much higher sale price that others agents we interviewed. So high in fact it scared us because, other agents apparently only went by internet estimates. We interviewed 3 realtors. 2 of them said we should sell our home, for 30 to 50 thousand less, that Rita had us selling it at. Rita actually went to the comps in the area. There was a distressed property on our street that because it sold for so much less, it brought the nearby houses internet estimates down. That house has a cliff in the back that is falling off... the internet is not the way to value a house. We had 3 offers. We took one that was pretty much what we were asking. Rita is a non stop machine, always keeping us informed and up to date. When Shopping for our replacement home, her knowledge of construction, saved us from making some costly mistakes. She never tried to direct on a particular house, only giving us pros and cons. We couldnt be happier, she helped us negotiate a great price on our new house too. She is No aEURoefancy suitaEUR?, aEURoequick buckaEUR?, aEURoesell your house cheapaEUR?, realtor. She does the work, and wont steer you wrong. She is the best realtor we have ever had.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita Shaw is a terrific real estate professional. My wife and I are satisfied with her and will use her again if we have the opportunity. After being on the market for 3 days, we received a full price offer. Rita took all the different milestones in the closing process as a professional and ensured everything went smooth and well (appraisal, home inspection, loan funding, etc.). She worked with the buyers and was able to get the final closing date advanced to less than 30 days from the listing date. It was a wonderful experience and I am thankful she was our realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe choose Rita because we thought we would be friends in any other situation. We interviewed 3 others. She was on time and thoroughly prepared. She was straightforward and gave us an honest appraisal of our property value. It is stressful selling a house. Rita kept us up to date on everything. And she and her office staff are great at handholding. The trades people she suggested for the roof and plumbing were top notch. Pick her she is the best.

ZillowVERIFIEDI dont do the aEURoerecommendaEUR? thing very often, but RitaaEUR| shes pretty special. I'm sixty years old and have initiated several real estate deals in my life, and I can honestly say that this lady is the aEURoereal deal.aEUR? I cant thank her enough for all the effort she has gone through to make sure that my property transaction was the perfect fit for me. I was particularly impressed with how much information she was able to track down that I would have considered to be the listing agents responsibility, but she took the initiative to obtain the data that I needed to successfully pursue the transaction. She has been nothing less than honest, insightful, resourceful, responsive, professional and considerate. In short, shes everything you could want in a representative real estate broker! A very sincere aEURoethank youaEUR? for all your hard work and consideration, and your extra effort when it came to deal with the county regulators is so appreciatedaEUR| Rita, you are quite simply aEURoethe best.aEUR?

ZillowVERIFIEDRita helped me buy the house I was renting. The house had some issues with added on features which she pointed out right away, and was helpful in recommending a good home inspector to help address the issues in negotiation. She has a thorough understanding of home values in Redlands and negotiated a significant reduction in price during escrow. She also recommended a great lender, so I'm not only happy with the house, I'm also happy with the new mortgage.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita Shaw is by far the best realtor we have worked with. Its a nice break to be able to talk to someone and have them understand what i am asking, regarding zoning or poor construction, and the foresight to see what can be done to the home with TLC. Rita is knowledgeable in both the construction and real estate arenas and is what was needed for us buying a home since we were looking for a fixer upper. We have used Rita twice now, once for selling and recently for buying and we are happy with both outcomes.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs an out of town home owner trying to sell property in Redlands, I was worried that things would not go smoothly. I was so wrong! Rita Shaw is amazing. Extremely honest and forthcoming, I always knew what to expect. She handled everything for me-from staging to dealing with unexpected repairs. Her knowledge of the real estate market is spot on. She knew exactly how to price the property and was proactive in screening potential buyers to ensure a smooth escrow. She always headed off problems before they even occurred! I cannot say enough positive things about Rita. If you want an agent who works honestly on your behalf, call Rita.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita Shaw is a pro in the inland empire of southern California. We were referred to Rita through Dave Ramsey's Endorsed Local Provider service. We initially interviewed three agents. We went with Rita based on her many years of experience successfully helping people buy and sell homes near ours and because, when we first approached her, she listened to our needs, gave us helpful information and then gave us time to make our decision. Rita made the process of selling our home smooth. She kept us informed and answered all our questions. As sellers, she helped explain the differences between the offers we received and let us decide which to accept based on that information. She has built a team of quality service providers to handle each aspect of preparing, listing, and selling homes and coordinates them to keep things moving quickly from beginning to end. We were very happy with our experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita is nothing less than fantastic! We highly recommended her if you are looking for an agent who will go above and beyond the call of duty to represent your needs. As first time home buyers, we wanted an agent to help us understand all of the details of the home buying process, and Rita definitely provided the guidance that helped us make an informed decision. She quickly responded to us whenever we had a question, and worked hard to accommodate our schedule whenever we needed to meet. Also, Rita provided support for us after closing on the house when we discovered that the selling agent misrepresented several issues with the house. She really fought hard for us, even though at that point she technically didn't have to because the sale was already finalized. Through that situation, we were able to see first-hand her strong sense of honesty and integrity. Rita worked with us on every detail, and we would definitely recommend her for anyone looking to purchase a home!

ZillowVERIFIEDI recommend wholeheartedly and without hesitation that you work with Rita. She knows every inch of Redlands and the surrounding area, she's up on the latest regulations and requirements, she has tons of practical, hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves advice, and there is no real-estate transaction weirdness that she hasn't encountered and overcome.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita personally sat with us in our home and helped set and then got us top dollar for our house! Plus, several times during the presale process, she was able to draw upon her broad licensed general contractor background and help us find repair/staging people to ready our house for sale. Lastly, she very effectively managed the escrow process by working with our buyers and others to streamline and shorten this too often overwhelming/pit filled activity. THANKS!

It was great to be able to view homes with her and she was as excited as we were! Her building and construction knowledge is an invaluable asset that helped us in deciding on the type/year of the house we bought. She was always available to answer our questions and helped us get the information we needed. Rita is very professional and a wonderful person! Definitely recommend Rita Shaw for assistance in buying a home. Thank you Rita!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had half a dozen realtor recommendations from friends; over the course of several weeks we interviewed them all and realized they were all good, yet Rita stood out. She impressed with her quick responsiveness, thorough knowledge, and was the most on top of details. She worked with us on our terms, never pressured us, and was always accessible. There are many good realtors out there, but only a handful of great ones. Rita is great, and her results speak for themselves.

Review for Member: Rita Shaw
ZillowVERIFIEDRita was recommended to me by Dave Ramsey Show. I reached out to her to explore options of selling my house. She responded promptly, answered all my questions. At this time I decided NOT to sell my house, save for my dream house over next 10 years and then make the move. I valued how tactful was Rita at this time, no pushing, she replied with respectful acknowledgement of my decision in offering help if in need in the future. More than 6 months later I found my dream house, made an offer and needed agent to sell my "old" house. I interviewed two agents: Rita and the agent who sold me the new house. The advice, both offered was drastically different. Rita suggested to start with $339K, wanted to do some painting, carpet change. #2 $319K, sell as it is, looks great. I had no clue what is the best way to go, but decided to go with Rita because of Dave Ramsey endorsement. She was great with recommending carpet and painting crew, communicating updates at least once a week, arranging for staging and excellent, professional photo shoot. She patiently answered multiple neurotic questions of mine (I am a control freak, letting someone else take charge was a challenge). We invested about $3K in upgrades, got offer after 28 days. She was very helpful with communication with the sellers and getting the price right. Sold for $335K! Escrow closing tomorrow! I am very happy we decided Rita to represent us in this process. I am very thankful for all her help. She even got us a beautiful printed photo book with all our " old" house pictures. This was a very thoughtful gesture, I will appreciate in the future even more!

ZillowVERIFIEDThis is my third time having Rita represent me in a home sale, and I can't recommend her strongly enough. My house sold in 5 days and I got significantly more for it than I would have expected. She is incredibly organized and efficient, getting paperwork done and returning correspondence incredibly fast. She has vast real estate experience and helped me navigate through all the hurdles and paperwork of a sale with minimal effort on my part. Superb job!

ZillowVERIFIEDRita helped us find and purchase our first home. When we were looking, I felt like we were her only client (even though I know we weren't) because she would figure out a way to get us in to see a house the day it came on the market or a day later. Rita has extensive building knowledge from experience in the world of contractors, which is a phenomenal asset when it comes to deciding on whether a home is worth putting an offer on. This knowledge and service alongside her genuine excitement at being able to help us in buying our first home was super handy when we ended up making an offer on a home while we were out of state. She went to the house and looked it for us, took pictures and video and told us what she thought. We closed on that home last week and are moving in on Saturday! If you are looking for a home, Rita is awesome to work with!

ZillowVERIFIEDRita is very professional and personable. Very knowledgeable of Redlands, right away set me up to view homes in my price range and worked quickly and efficiently that once I found a house that I loved, she placed my offer right away, thus I am now owning in a house that I know is the right home for my husband, family and myself. I would not only recommend, but trust Rita to do her best in behalf of her clients.

ZillowVERIFIEDRita is wonderful! She is calm, through and extremely knowledgeable. She prepared a detailed market analysis to help us price our house for sale. She also sent an excellent real estate photographer and expert stager to prepare the house for listing. We priced the house based on her recommendations and - combined with the gorgeous online photos - had multiple offers before our Open House was even scheduled. Rita helped us navigate repair requests and all of the paperwork that goes with buying or selling a house, and we were able to close a couple of days early. I would happily recommend Rita to anyone in the Redlands area. She is the best.

ZillowVERIFIEDI listed two properties with Rita. This review is for the second property. Both were in part of a trust that needed liquidating. Both had serious deferred maint issues. In other words, these were properties that were not going to sell themselves. I spent 3 months looking for the right agent. Ive been successful looked for agents to list other properties, & I knew what I was looking for. I looked though all the listings of all the active agents of the area, past sales, types of properties, asking vs sell price, time on the market, all that stuff. I also needed local help with some immediate property issues since I wasnt in town. This one had an eight year renter on it. Rita was the perfect choice. This property was had a very old dilapidated house and was primary a sale for future land value & development. She was great working with my renter, fielded and negotiated several offers, and more than exceeded my expectations for the sale. The goalposts were constantly moving around on this one, she never lost direction, and her no-nonsense approach closed the deal. I was especially impressed with negotiations on this one. Throughout the process, she was thorough, responsive, communicative, and professional. I could not have found a better agent to handle my transactions, & I highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were selling our rental of 24 years in Redlands and live in San Diego County. Rita made this experience so smooth with contracting and real estate experience. She assisted me with any repairs getting done to limit my trips to Redlands. The staging of the home and photos were so professional. We had 3 offers within 3 weeks of the listing and closed in a 30 day escrow. I will continue to refer any of my Inland Empire friends to Rita Shaw.
