If I were in Southern CA again, either to buy or sell again or even to find a rental property, Debbie would make it hard for me to want to work with any other agent! Long story short, I had a tenant in my home. She gave me the warm and fuzzies doing crazy things in contracts, like stating I'm allowed to back out at any time, to keep the language simple, just so we could all confirm that the tenant, myself, and my realtor, Debbie, all understood the ridiculous circumstance I put myself in. Additionally, she found my tenant a place to live, so the three of us (tenant, myself, and realtor) could move on with our lives. I can't state how much patience she had to tolerate my tenant, then me as I started to crumble as I needed to drop money into my home to sell, which was a foreseen event looking back at it, but one I couldn't avoid due to only getting VA loan approvals. (I, myself, bought the home with a VA loan, so I should have expected what the buyer's loan required.) In the my own panic, she managed to keep me calm and she ensured, although there were delays (some caused by me with panic/bills) that we knew couldn't be avoided, managed to push past everything. It might sound weird, but if I were to buy a home in CA, I'd hope I could leverage Debbie, as I know she would fight for me, as much as she fought for me as my seller's agent.

Great help in sorting out different neighborhoods and price ranges. Listened carefully to our likes and dislikes helping us to find an appropriate home in just a few days. We highly recommend Debbie.

Debbie is knowledgeable and professional. She's always understanding and available to help with experience of the whole process which made everything easier. She definitely knew the market too giving us clear expectations from the start. I'm not normally a person to give five stars but Debbie actually went above and beyond for us - she deserves them.

Debbie is very knowledgeable expert Best in the business I would 100% tell everyone that wants to buy a home or sell their home.

Great service 100% recommend

I have used Debbie to buy and sell a home. She was so helpful throughout the entire process from start to finish. She made certain I understood every step and every form. Her advice, knowledge and honesty gave me the confidence I needed to make big decisions. Buying/selling a home can be stressful, Debbie was able to recognize when I needed an efficient professional and when I needed a laugh to calm my nerves. I will be using Debbie Lawes for any and all future real estate ventures!

There is no question that Debbie knows the market and knows how each property fits her client. But the key was getting constantly updated information from her. We never felt we were in the dark about anything.This is especially important when you are searching from afar as we were. Debbie was extremely helpful at closing and at inspection time. Her rapport with the agent for the seller gave us great confidence. Buying a new home is stress enough for any of us. Having someone to lean on who knows the market well is essential. Debbie was that person for us.

She was remarkably efficient and wasted no time in identifying properties that aligned with our investment goals and promptly scheduled viewings. Debbie would walk us through each property, highlighting both the strengths and potential drawbacks, and providing a balanced perspective. Throughout the process, she promptly responded to our inquiries and provided regular updates on new listings and market trends. Her attention to detail instilled a sense of confidence in us, knowing that she was diligently working to secure the best possible deal.

We can confidently say that working with Debbie guarantees a hassle-free home buying experience. Her expertise helped us to make informed decisions. We highly recommend Debbie to anyone seeking a professional who truly listens, understands their clients' needs, and provides realistic and achievable options.
