Dwell Collective

★★★★★
"There are few words to capture our incredible experience with Dwell Collective, but I'll try to translate the impact into writing. More than a year ago, my husband and I considered moving to SLO from the Bay Area and kept our eye on houses. There was one home that piqued our interest, so we asked my parents (locals) to visit the open house on our behalf. Jensen and Stacey had been partnering on the open house and we got in touch via my parents. Although our house hunt shuttered during 2022, Stacey and Jensen continuously kept in touch, providing market updates, relevant statistics and interesting listings. Their professionalism and knowledge of SLO was impressive. When we picked up our home search in 2023, we knew exactly who to turn to and engaged Jensen and Stacey. We made countless trips from the Bay to SLO and they always made an effort to line up as many listings as possible so we could make the most of our time, all the while keeping in mind what was most important to us. The thing we loved about working with Stacey and Jensen was their integrity and transparency. The market in SLO is different than what we were used to, so they helped us navigate making offers, keeping our best interest in mind at all times. We ended up going into contract on a house off market based on the established relationships Stacey and Jensen have in the community, and we could not be more thrilled with our purchase. The efforts of Dwell Collective were truly life changing and will forever be part of our story. I would tell anyone in the market to buy a house to RUN towards Jensen and Stacey; guaranteed you will be met with authenticity, thoughtfulness, good humor and a white-glove experience. We absolutely love Dwell Collective and our experience has been nothing short of amazing. Our dream of moving to SLO wouldn't be a reality without this incredible team. -Sarah M. "

"Stacey helped me with a 1031 exchange, moving an investment from the Bay Area to San Luis Obispo. Stacey’s experience as an agent in the Bay Area as well as her knowledge of the SLO market made my transaction a pleasure. Her understanding of both markets is unique and invaluable for this type of move. In my case, we found a property before I was able to put my Bay Area rental on the market. We explored a reverse 1031 exchange (Stacey has excellent financing connections in SLO). In the end Stacey helped me put together a creative offer that met the Seller’s needs and my need for an extended escrow. I was impressed by Stacey’s creativity, negotiating skills, and ability to quickly get a sense for a property’s potential. "

"Stacey helped us navigate the purchase of our home in San Luis Obispo from start to finish. We were one of 14 offers that was accepted within a few days of the home being on the market. She was extremely thorough when it came to review of documents and always made herself available. She went above and beyond to make our home buying as least stressful as possible in an absolutely insane market. Would highly recommend!"

"My wife and I had almost given up looking for a place in San Francisco that we can call home. Coming from South Bay it was fairly daunting for us to find new homes that fit our budget and gave us the space to live comfortably. And then in one of the open house tours we met Stacey. Right from the get go she was very understanding of our situation and needs. Offered to support our search through endless postings, comp analysis and open house tours. Even during COVID she kept the momentum by getting us access to virtual tours and got us a viewing of homes that were recently off market or put on hold. Through all of this we finally found a place we love. Overall we had a fantastic experience with her and the entire process became so manageable with her constant support. Thanks to her our dream of living in the city has come true!"

"Our home purchase was more than a little crazy, with every complication you can imagine and a pandemic thrown in for good measure. Our bank turned out to be going through massive organizational changes because of Covid, and meanwhile the sellers were eager to amidst the pandemic. Through it all, Stacey was a remarkable person to have on our side. She was responsive, professional, knowledgeable, candid, and great at negotiation; she gave us excellent advice about the market and our bargaining position. Moreover, she did all that while doing extra duty as a liaison with our bankers, who turned out to be surprisingly difficult to work with. At every stage of the process, Stacey was our most trusted advisor. We’ve never had such a good real estate broker before, and we’ll be recommending her highly to anyone that asks."

"Buying a home is hard. Buying a home in San Francisco is REALLY hard. I was a first-time homebuyer and Stacey guided me through the process from beginning to end. She went above and beyond and I couldn’t recommend her more. Stacey has a strong background in sales and applies her grit, strength, and persistence to any negotiation. We faced a number of competitive situations and in the end, a very difficult seller. Stacey always provided market comps, data, and insight to help me make an informed decision. If she doesn’t know the answer to a question, Stacey will go back and thoroughly do the research. Her preparation is spot on. More importantly, I never felt pressured to make a purchase for its own sake and I appreciated that Stacey was always honest with me. She was truly on my side, being patient and guiding me on the emotional roller coast of home buying. It’s been one month from my home purchase and I cannot be more pleased. I’m incredibly thankful to Stacey and her team that made it happened. If you are looking for an agent, I highly highly recommend Stacey!!!"

"Given that I was a first-time homebuyer and I had a tight budget, I had a lot of questions and it was a long search. But Stacey was always patient with me, generous with her time, and gave me all the guidance I needed. There were times I thought I'd never find a place, but now I am extremely happy with my new home. And it's thanks to Stacey."
