We met Amber Russell last year while searching for a property that would meet both our personal and financial needs, and from our very first meeting, we knew we were in excellent hands. Amber is exceptionally professional, knowledgeable, and organized, but what impressed us just as much was how personable and genuinely interested she was in helping us find the right property—not simply making a sale. Amber took the time to understand what we were looking for, including our priorities, our financial considerations, and the kind of property that would truly fit our lifestyle. She then helped us search the entire market, patiently showing us a wide range of possibilities and offering thoughtful guidance throughout the process. She never made us feel pressured or rushed, and we always felt that our best interests were her priority. What stood out most was Amber’s combination of professionalism and personal attention. She was responsive, accessible, and remarkably patient as we explored different properties and weighed our options. She listened carefully, asked the right questions, and provided honest, practical advice whenever we needed it. Her knowledge of the market was invaluable, but it was her commitment to us as clients that made the experience particularly enjoyable. Buying a property can be complicated and, at times, stressful, but Amber made the process feel manageable and, surprisingly, even fun. We always felt that we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared about helping us make the right decision. We would highly recommend Amber Russell to anyone looking for a real estate professional who brings together experience, integrity, market knowledge, and a wonderful personal touch. We are very grateful for everything she did for us and would gladly work with her again.

We spent our careers as a Realtor team in the San Diego area, and made the decision to relocate to Pacific Grove for retirement. Our list of criteria for a Realtor to represent us included a proven track record, spot on knowledge of the market, great negotiation and communication skills, knowing the importance of follow-up and staying on top of the transaction from beginning to end. We did our research identifying which Realtor was dominating the market, searching a few years back the active, pending and sold listings. Amber Russell, Over the Moon Realty, was the stand out either as the listing agent, buyers agent and many times representing both sides of the transactions! That spoke volumes to us having worked over 25 years with Realtors of all levels of productivity and success. Amber is the epitome of a professional, successful Realtor. She alerted us to a brand new listing the day we arrived, advised in writing an attractive offer that led to an acceptance! We were thrilled!! If you are in the market as a seller or buyer, absolutely no need to look any further than Amber Russell, Over the Moon Realty!

We reached out to Amber about a challenging house decision that we needed to make because of my wife's recent diagnosis of early-onset Parkinson's, and because of Amber's excellent online reviews. Amber and her team did a great job working through our challenges and she helped us partner with an excellent loan company that did a great job as well. Thank you Amber, and we highly recommend Amber and her company, Over the Moon Realty. Jay and Michelle

An outstanding experience, absolute pleasure it was working with Amber. She managed every detail with meticulous care, expertly navigating the complexities of selling my home in Salinas and purchasing our new home in Aptos. Amber guided us through the entire process with ease and grace, and her extensive knowledge made a significant difference. I truly appreciated her swift execution and prompt responses to all our inquiries. She represented us brilliantly in both the sale of our home and our purchase in Aptos, and I felt complete confidence in her expertise throughout this journey. Thank you, Amber, for making this experience so seamless!

Amber is, above all, incredibly competent and conscientious- the most important facets of being a realtor. But she isn’t just good at what she does, she is a complete package of engaging, disarming, cheerful, kind, and just generally a trustworthy and honest person. She navigated us through a nearly painless process in buying a property in the charming little town of Pacific Grove. We’ve dreamed of living here for years from the first time we set eyes on Lovers’s Point. She showed up for us again and again and honestly I was a little sad when we were done with the process. But not to worry, she is a fellow Pacific Grover as we are now (part time until we can fully retire there), and I hope to run into her in the Hallmark Movie downtown where her cute little office is located. Thank you, Amber, sincerely. To anyone wondering about Over the Moon? Don’t hesitate. She’s fabulous.

I would 100% recommend Amber as a buyer's agent! She knows all the right people in Pacific Grove to make both the offer and post-offer processes go smoothly - for us that included working with the listing agent, a property manager, city permits, insurance, and finance. No matter what the issue was, I could ask Amber to help take care of it and I just never had to worry that things were going to work out even though we live a couple hours away. And plus, she is just a really nice person. Recommended!

Amber and her team at Over The Moon are incredible. I would highly recommend them. They both sold us a house and then helped us sell that same home 5 years later. The process was smooth and easy, she knows her stuff!

I would use Amber again in a hot minute. She knows the market. And she knows and is respected by her peers. As I said in my title, she is professional, competent, resourceful, very pleasant and tireless. Can’t imagine you can find anyone who can work harder and smarter for you.

She knows what she is doing. She knew what we wanted and help secure us a beautiful property with very little fuss or bother. Entirely trustworthy.

When my mother passed away, our family was faced with selling a home we'd treasured for over 50 years — and I was living overseas. As trustee of her estate, I needed someone truly special. After meeting with several Monterey realtors, I found the larger agencies felt too corporate for what was a deeply personal process. Then I found Over the Moon. From my very first conversation, Amber was warm, understanding, and completely professional — and her abilities far exceeded even my initial high impressions. Amber's local knowledge helped us land on a price that felt logical and confident. Her network of contractors got the property market-ready, and her team made the entire process seamless despite the distance. We received significant offers in the first week and sold above asking within two. I couldn't recommend Amber and the Over the Moon team more highly. What could have been an incredibly stressful experience felt almost familial. They are simply exceptional.

Working with Amber was an incredible experience. From the start, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled correctly, and her hard work did not go unnoticed! Selling a home can be a very stressful process, but having Amber in our corner made all the difference. She made everything so much easier to navigate, and we are all so grateful for her kindness, guidance, and for being such an amazing advocate for us. She truly goes the extra mile for her clients and stayed on top of every detail to get us to the finish line. We truly couldn't have done this without her! If you want an agent who genuinely cares and is absolutely amazing, I cannot recommend Amber enough!! We would give Amber 10 stars if we could! If anyone is looking to buy or sell a home, we highly recommend Over the Moon Realty!

We are incredibly fortunate to have found Amber Russell at Over the Moon Realty. From the moment we met her, we knew we were in competent and caring hands. Amber took the time to really listen to us. This, combined with her extensive knowledge of the Pacific Grove/Monterey real estate market, made her an ideal guide during our search for our perfect home. We really appreciated Amber’s timely and informative communications. She went above and beyond, coordinating multiple showings for multiple homes that met our criteria until we found a match. Above all, Amber is a fundamentally kind and thoughtful person. You can tell that it truly makes her happy to see buyers find their new dream home. Amber quickly answered our multitude of questions no matter the day or how trivial the question. She was always considerate and patient as we navigated arranging financing and selling our original home. Amber continues to be helpful as we move into our new home and get established in Pacific Grove. We highly recommend Over the Moon Realty if you are interested in buying or selling a home in the Pacific Grove / Monterey area.
