My wife and I recently decided to sell our rental property in Rancho Cordova after owning it for more than 20 years. We currently reside in Southern California and we did not wanted to spend any time going back and forth during the selling process so we decided that we would try to do everything online.

Since we did not know any realtors in Sacramento, we decided to do our research online. The two main requirements during this process was that the realtor had experience in Rancho Cordova real estate and that they had a good amount of positive reviews online. We narrowed down our research among five candidates. We interviewed four of them over the phone. The fifth candidate responded to our call after we had made our decision.

During our interview process, I was looking for someone that clearly knew real estate and understood our needs. While all the agents appeared to know the market fairly well, only two candidates seriously considered our needs before proposing their selling strategy. Our goal was to sell the house as quickly as possible and negotiate any repairs needed with the potential buyer(s) to avoid delays and time needed to close the contract.

In addition to our needs, we also had great tenants that have been renting the property for over seven years. We wanted to do well by our tenants while at the same time, sell the property as quickly as possible.

Our final decision was Emily Nelson from Vista Oaks Realty. At first, we did not know what to expect but our concerns dissipated quickly by Emily’s understanding of our needs and her hard work ethic.

Emily went to work right away and stay in close contact during the entire process. She did not only work with our tenants directly, she also assisted in the communication between them and my wife and I. Emily responded to every question I had quickly and was very positive.

Emily took charge and was able to quickly analyze our house and price it accordingly. She was 100% accurate. The house sold in only couple of weeks at the listed price.

Once we agree with the buyer’s offer, she worked with the other agent to make the selling transaction as smooth as possible. The contract closed in less than 30 days and my wife and I did not have to spend hardly any time during the process. The entire transaction was incredibly satisfying and positive due to Emily background experience.

I would strongly recommend Emily Nelson from Vista Oaks Realty for all your real estate needs. She knows the market. She will work hard for your business. However most importantly, she will meet and exceed your real estate needs.
