OUR FANS

I could go on and on about the excellent and professional service I enjoyed. But in short, not only was Kathie amazing with attention to detail and a strong sense of urgency at every step. The staff at Rose group was right on the mark when in came to closing and Kathie was on vacation. I needed help with a document and the Rose group came through. We were able to close even before the targeted date. Kathie was over the top in service overdelivering in every aspect of the process. We almost lost the sale right at the very end before she worked magic and we ended up closing well over asking price. I’ve bought and sold many properties over the years but never have I had this level of service on either end of a transaction.
RECENT CLIENT
We had a great experience with Shannon and her team. They really did up things right and we’re extremely helpful with everything. We chose them based on how they marketed the house online, I’ve seen way too many listings with bad or too few pictures. They cleaned the house, staged it, and too professional pictures and presented a great impression online. We got way over asking and way over what anyone expected, part of that was the market but I don’t thing we would have had the amount of traffic at the open houses without their work.

We worked extensively with Shannon’s partner Dan Sullivan and found him to be extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He really knows his stuff and helped us write a winning bid on our new house.

There were a few other small things that stood out. I accidentally sent an Amazon order to our old house and they brought it to our new place. Also the software they use allows you to sigh documents online which is a huge time saver.

A great real estate Team that anyone can trust and rely on!!

Shannon was our listing agent, and she did her work diligently and efficiently. Most importantly, she helped our sale transaction delivered on time, and we could all rest assured without worries. A very knowledgeable and ethical real estate PROFESSIONAL who knows what to do, how to do, and when to do.

Shannon and Dan make a top notch real estate team and we highly recommend them.

We decided to work with them for selling our home after interviewing several realtors. They were clearly very professional and they knew the bay area market really well. But what sealed the deal for us was their impeccable statistical record as sellers agents and their willingness to go above and beyond what we’d come to expect from agents.

We engaged with them several months before our home went on the market. Dan and Shannon advised us on the minimal set of things to be done to the house before we put it on the market, connected us with handy men/contractors - negotiated for us on quotes, stayed in our house when the work was getting done whenever we were unable to be there. Dan even picked up the tools and helped with some of the work when needed. They were just phenomenal. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing!

Our home went on the market on a Wednesday. We had two fully packed open houses that weekend. Set an offer deadline for next Wednesday. And we had multiple offers in the double digits, mostly above asking, several very strong offers. We sold our home 15% above list price with the terms that we were looking for. Dan and Shannon worked their magic in the background.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Shannon and Dan. If you’re looking to sell a home in the bay area, look no further.

I am exceedingly impressed by Shannon Rose, and am glad she is my go-to real estate professional for my selling/buying needs.

I found Shannon during an open house, looking for a new home in 2005. I already had a realtor from Alain Pinel, and found the conversation we shared at the open house more insightful and informational than any previous interaction with my own realtor. The decision was made that day, to release Alain Pinel, and go with Shannon for the house hunt. Many years later,

Shannon has been my realtor for buy-side and sell-side transactions. Shannon is a fierce negotiator, and will do everything possible to get you the best deal. Shannon is incredibly knowledgeable, goes above and beyond for her clients, and is extremely fun to work with.

I highly recommend her for any real estate transaction, and will continue to recommend her. She will also be the selling agent when I list my current house in the future, as well as who I turn to for my next house hunt.

Shannon and Dan helped us to buy and sell houses. With their help and professionalism, the selling and buying experience had been fantastic. They helped us to arrange with handyman, floor repair service, cleaning service, and other services, resulting much less headache for my family.

Due to their expertise and amazing service, we’ve gotten a single offer on our townhouse that was significantly over our asking price, can’t say enough about their service as amazing realtors.

Thank you!

My non-profit organization was the beneficiary of a house that looked as if it had been a drug house: filthy, damaged doors and walls, filled with junk, including used drug paraphernalia, etc. Kathie took charge, arranging the clean-up, repairs, inspections, staging - all that was needed to make the place salable - at an affordable price, and without investing any more than what made strategic sense. And they accomplished it in record time! The transformation was amazing.

Their advice on pricing was spot on. We had a bidding war and ended up selling it for more than I thought possible - $31,000! Kathie proactively and efficiently looked into and resolved a number of issues, such as liens against the property, so that escrow closed in a timely fashion. After this experience, I know that she is who I would turn to if/when I decide to sell my personal home.

Kathie Gomes was both professional and an enjoyable agent to work with in the purchase of my home in Capitola. Although I have bought several homes in the past, I am a recent transplant from the midwest, and Kathie helped reduce the stress and anxiety the California market brought to the purchase.

She was very well networked, not only with the transactional players and home services, but with the very important personal aspects such as a veterinarian for my 110 pound dog. I definitely appreciated here patience, as I can sometimes be a handful. Thank you Kathie! I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her.
JASON B.
This was my first experience in selling my home and Kathie provided me with excellent guidance and clarity. Even though I was living out of the area her team of professionals kept me well informed through phone calls, texts and e-mails. They have many professional partners who offered their assistance when called upon and thus I am very pleased with the results. When they first told me they usually find a buyer within the first 20 days it sounded too good to be true but it proved true for me and I am most grateful. I recommend them very highly.
