Shel Downing

★★★★★
"Shel did a top notch job listing and moving our real estate property in Seal Beach. She sent us weekly updates indicating how many times the property was shown and any remarks other realtors offered. Since we did not live close to the property she made herself available to be there for small repairs, staging, etc. Best of all, we found her to be a very gracious person. She only had kind words to say about everyone involved in the process. We honestly believe the property would not have sold as quickly as it did if we listed with a different realtor.

"I have known Shel for many years, and from our first encounter, I was drawn to her kind and generous spirit. She has a gift of communicating with a heart of integrity and compassion. It was therefore an indisputable decision that she would be the only real estate agent to sell our property. Not only did she go above and beyond throughout the entire pre-sale and sale of the home, but she was able to sell the property at a greater price than other sales agents had predicted. I can only offer the highest praise and appreciation to Shel, for her diligent commitment and perseverance to this project, and in providing my family with ongoing care and support during a difficult transition.

"Shel has provided my wife and I with excellent real estate service. Not dealing with this kind of service every day, all I can say is that she has made the entire process a very smooth ride. She was always on top of things, ready to assist and advise with any dilemmas we had along the way. She is truly an expert at what she does and I recommend her services highly to all who are looking to buy a property.

"I highly recommend Shel Downing for all your real estate needs! Shel was amazing to work with on both the selling and buying side. Shel helped us sell our first home and did a great job with the listing, showings, etc. She was able to get more for our home than we initially envisioned. She also helped us find our second home. She helped us figure out the right area as we initially were looking at a few different cities. She was very patient with us in finding the perfect home as it took us months. She went to look at so many different homes with us and always helped guide us towards the right homes but was never pushy. She even talked us out of putting offers on homes that she knew weren't right for us when we started to get antsy. I am glad we listened to her and waited to put offers in on the homes that were right for us. She helped make our offers more competitive with creative tactics so that our offer would get accepted in a very competitive market. We love our home and it's perfect for us and we owe all our thanks to Shel for helping us get it! Even after the transactions were over Shel has gone above and beyond to help us when a few issues came up. Lastly, Shel is such a lovely warm person and we genuinely enjoy the time we get to spend with her.

"We worked with Shel to buy and sell a home in La Verne, and purchase our current home in Upland. I think we probably had one of the most challenging situations with back-to-back closings under an extremely tight timeline. Shel was superb in keeping the other agents in-check, coordinated things carefully, and helped us maintain most of our sanity when things seemed to be heading in the wrong direction. Shel's experience and knowledge also helped us connect with great sources for inspection, financing, and warranty services, which helped smooth out the process. We'd highly recommend her to anyone considering purchasing or selling of a home, and we will use her again in the future should we move again!
