I have owned several homes in Santa Barbara over the last 13 years, and I have worked with a number of real estate agents in the process. Particularly in the slow years of the market, I have found that what really defines a great agent is the ability to sell a house — it’s a great time to buy in a slow market, but a harder time to sell. After a few stalled efforts, I was referred to Patrice. I cannot sing her praises more loudly. She is the epitome of professionalism and dedication, and she sold my final two properties at strong prices. She put in extra effort above and beyond what is expected – she offered stellar marketing ideas and held many, many open houses, which included adding the perfect, homey staging touches, often at her own expense. She was on top of the process and communicated our status at every stage. I now live in Northern California, and if I could transport Patrice to represent me here, both in purchases and sales, I would. Having worked with many real estate agents in multiple locations, I can confidently say that she is the best I’ve worked with. She is creative, knowledgeable, and extremely dedicated. I now consider her a friend, and I could not recommend her more highly. Patrice is motivated by the love of it all, not by the commission, and that makes here extremely effective, and also a great delight to work with!
