Amber Russell did a fantastic job as my realtor! She is very thorough and knowledgeable regarding all the proper procedures and forms. Amber staged my home very nicely and she and her husband helped me finish preparing my home. Amber always offered to help me and answer questions. Amber arranged for inspections and a gardener and a house cleaner and estimates for work. I highly recommend Amber to anyone buying or selling a home. She even got me two offers above my asking price and escrow closed in less than a month!

I highly recommend using Amber as your realtor. I interviewed several realtors and decided to go with Amber and I'm so happy I did. She did an awesome job of navigating us through the sale of our property. She always made herself available and was responsive to all of my questions. She was extremely professional and offered great suggestions for getting the property on the market. Amber put in a lot of hard work in getting the property ready for the open house with all her hard work the property sold quickly.

Amber is both a terrific real estate pro and a warm, empathetic person who readily discerns needs and wants even when the client isn’t necessarily crystal clear. She is quite knowledgeable and helpful, as all the best real estate agent/brokers are, but she adds her special touch to help her clients understand renovations, interior design, and landscaping choices and the best local contractors to make the dream come true. She helped us find just the right house after we had spent nearly four years looking in a specific area. I’ve bought and sold over a dozen houses in five states and while other real estate agents/brokers were quite good, Amber is the best. I should also note that Amber was quite helpful with pertinent information and advice before I became her customer because she’s old school and believes in helping people and hopes some may come back when they are ready. We definitely did!

It was over two years ago that we walked into Over The Moon Reality and met with Amber. We had just relocated from the Midwest and were led to Amber after reading a glowing recommendation on Nextdoor. We looked at dozens of houses before we purchased our home. Throughout that time, Amber stuck with us and was always accessible when we needed her involvement or guidance. Amber and her team at Over The Moon, including Rob, have followed through every step of the way and have continued to help us with the transition, post closing. We would highly recommend OTM!

We were referred to Amber by a neighborhood friend, and we could not be happier with the way she handled the sale of our home in the Beach Tract of Pacific Grove. She took care of all of the pre-listing inspections and home staging, held open houses, and we received an all-cash, non-contingency offer with a thirteen day clos of escrow that we accepted. Amber also handled all of our post-closing projects for us. We recommend her highly.

We purchased a home with Amber in Pacific Grove, CA, back in 2018, where she provided outstanding insights into the local market, what to offer, etc. Fast forward to 2024, when we were ready to sell (and at the same time buy in another state). We of course turned to Amber to handle the listing. She had her work cut out for her because our home in Pacific Grove was actively rented, and we had a property out of state that we loved that we wanted to buy with the strongest contingency we could, which meant trying to have an offer in-hand for the CA home. There was a tiny window where we had no renter for 1 week. She dropped everything, and put together a quick-fire open house that was well-attended, and got a super strong offer! Unfortunately, through no fault of her own, that offer fell through. So ~1 month of craziness ensued where we found another house out of state, and Amber worked miracles to get our CA house presented even more beautifully, refreshing the flowers and landscape, deep clean, working with the rental management company; She held several open houses in as many days, keeping us informed, and all the while we were working the “buy” side, and found ourselves more than once dipping into her insights even for our out of state new purchase just as much as for the sale of the CA property she was responsible for. In the end she made the sale a success! She has a natural knack and instinct for the real estate world, coupled with a style of interacting that is both kind and diplomatic while also being direct. I am firmly convinced that no other person could have pulled off the rapid and strong transaction that made our sell & buy happen than Amber, and I would reach out to her in a heartbeat for any future real estate insights even if they are out of state, and I am positive she would pick up the phone, because that is the kind of agent and person she is!

Amber and her team were amazing to work with. Her expertise definitely helped me get into contract, she was well prepared and diligently worked quickly to ensure that we closed within the 21 day timeframe. Outstanding work and highly recommended! Thank you again Amber!!!!

I interviewed several real estate agents from different brokerage firms. Amber came across as honest, competent and enthusiastic. She is easy to work with, not bossy or pushy but very soft spoken and persuasive. She has good taste and staged the house to make it so appealing that I wanted to live there again. The most remarkable thing is, she hosted an open house and brought us 6 offers. We are lucky to have her as our agent.

Amber was the key to our being successful in purchasing our home in Carmel. She coached us on the market, the neighborhoods, and how to design our offer to beat out other offers. We came out on top of 5 other offers for our home. Amber has an incredible network of other realtors, financing, insurance and services people that are first class professionals. When we found our house, she honed in on what we needed to do to make this deal happen and she drove it to a close in just a few days. Working with Amber will give you a competitive edge in either buying or selling situations. I highly recommend her to any one looking for a successful purchase or sale.

Amber is an outstanding agent with deep knowledge of the Monterey area. She takes the time to understand her clients' needs and is incredibly approachable. Without pushing any agenda, she offers valuable advice and insights, helping to avoid costly mistakes and find that perfect home. Amber's love for the area, her understanding of its neighborhoods, and her strong local connections were key in helping us find our dream home in Pacific Grove. Even after the sale, she continues to provide her expertise as we settle in. We highly recommend her!

We fortuitously connected with Amber on Zillow the minute we saw the listing for our oceanfront home in Pacific Grove, CA and are so grateful we had her local expertise and incredibly patient, kind demeanor to guide us through the process.  She was exceptionally responsive, supportive and understanding and worked with us around the clock to respond to our various questions and issues. This level of customer service and true partnership has continued beyond close in a way that we would have never expected as she has helped us work through temporary furniture options, secured the right talent to fix known issues, offered excellent suggestions to help us better understand our new local community and more.  So many things about this home felt right to me from the very start including having Amber as our real estate agent and broker. I am a hard woman to please yet she was able to surprise and delight throughout the last few weeks while always communicating with the proper dose of clarity and reality.  Anyone would be blessed to have her as their real estate agent and broker in Pacific Grove and the surrounding communities-Amber is top notch quality all around!

Hire Amber to be your listing agent! She knows the Monterey real estate market, understands what buyers are looking for and how to market your house. She does her research and did an amazing job staging my house. I trusted all her suggestions on pricing and changes my house needed and I received an offer above asking within days of listing. She is extremely responsive and reassuring throughout the sale process. I highly recommend Amber and her team for anyone looking to buy or sell in the Monterey area.
