What a fabulous experience we had selling our home in Bay Point through Denisen Hartlove from Dudum Real Estate Group. Denisen went above and beyond in helping us prepare and sell our house within a very tight timeframe. We presented Denisen with quite a complicated situation. We were moving overseas, ready to close on a new house. We had a houseful of furniture and a garage-full of – to be honest – junk, accumulated over decades. We had movers scheduled to ship clothing and other items to our new destination. We were quite frantic and disorganized (it’s kind of been our MO over the years, but that’s another story!). Denisen calmly looked at us and said “leave it to me.” Gratefully and gladly we did. Within a day or two she had arranged for everything we needed and for things we didn’t realize we needed. Denisen provided exceptional care and consideration to us as we prepared for this massive move. Her integrity, professionalism and great personality got us through the selling of our house in record time (and for over the asking price!) and enabled a smooth closing and move. Denisen has years of experience and knowledge which she was able to utilize to accomplish miracles for us. I recommend her whole-heartedly.

I have known Denisen for at least 15 years. We live in the same neighborhood and have been friends for awhile. When I would see her at Safeway or some other destination, I would remind her when the time comes she will be the realtor I use. I have been in my home here in the Highlands neighborhood for 28 years and love it. We'll, then my husband passed away and so the time had come. I didn't want to leave my home, so it was a mixed bag of emotions involved. Denisen was very gentle with me as decisions had to be made and held my hand through it all. The house sold in 10 days and went above asking price. When it was all said and done, I waited a long time to have the Denisen experience, but it was worth every minute. Run don't walk to getting her involved!!

Denisen Hartlove at Dudum Real Estate helped our family sell a property in Pittsburg/Bay Point, and overall we had a positive experience working with her. She is knowledgeable about the local market, warm-natured in her approach, and committed to representing her clients’ best interests. Denisen provided thoughtful guidance on pricing strategy, and she handled final negotiations confidently once the property had an offer. She was transparent throughout the process and helped us think through decisions in a clear way, which we really appreciated. There were moments when faster response times and more proactive follow-ups would have been helpful in our situation. I also will suggest she develop a broader set of house-prep resources to make the readiness phase of the sale easier for sellers like us. That said, Denisen ultimately delivered a successful offer within just 4 days of listing and remained steady and supportive throughout. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy agent in her area of service.

Denisen is the best! First time home buyer, and the process of finding a home was new and became difficult at times. But Denisen helped my partner and I keep calm, put us in the best moods, and worked day and night to help us find our new home as quick as possible. Amazing person to work with!!

10/10 experience with Denisen. As a first time home buyer, the process was stressful. But Denisen kept us very informed on everything involved, kept my partner and I in the best headspace, and tirelessly worked to help us find our home. Astonished at how fun and quick it was!

This review is EXTREMELY overdue. Denisen helped me sell my condo in Walnut Creek towards the end of 2021. Denisen was so good that she even helped me manage a tricky tenant (and horribly unresponsive property management company) situation (she has so many resources to make things happen) and helped turn around the condo into beautifully sellable condition. She did all of this while I was trying to manage an extremely demanding job and traveling between two parts of California to care for an ill family member (and sell her home as well). Her amazing network, responsiveness, and coordination of so many things I was unable to take care of were the only things making the sale possible at the time. Her personality is also incredible - she's hilarious, bubbly, and pleasantly candid. Absolutely adored working with her. She continues to share her invaluable insight when needed, even though I am not able to work with her where I am now living. If you have an opportunity to work with Denisen, don't hesitate for a moment to select her as your realtor! Denisen makes me wish cloning (or Neuralink) was technologically feasible because she is really the best I've worked with... and you deserve to experience the same amazing service she provided to me!

As first-time homebuyers, my husband and I needed a realtor that was willing to educate us on the home-buying process while also helping us find our dream home. This would be a big feat in a normal market, let alone this crazy market! Denisen 100% delivered on this with the utmost patience, knowledge and care. Denisen is one of the most kind, patient people I've ever met - she answered hundreds of our questions and concerns over our months-long home search while we were living in Southern California but looking to buy in the East Bay. Denisen's communication was fantastic, which was especially important because we were living in Southern California at the time. Denisen showed us close to 100 homes and wrote 9 offers for us. We saw so many homes because we were looking in towns we've never lived in, so she was patient enough to drive us around on weekends and educate us on towns and neighborhoods that we had never seen before. I am also very picky, and Denisen never made me feel like a bother. She was sticking with us for the long-haul, and helping us find our dream home while sharing so much of her East Bay knowledge! By the time our offer was accepted and we closed on our home, Denisen went from realtor to friend. We appreciate everything she's done for us. She's truly a gem!

We bought our first house with Denisen, and were very pleased with everything she did for us! From the get-go, she was proactive to set up a video call to understand what we were looking for. Every weekend, Denisen had detailed instructions and lined up home viewings on a houses that exactly matched our specifications. As first-time buyers, she went the extra mile by letting us know the good, bad and ugly of each house. Her technical expertise in the real estate space made us informed buyers that knew what/what not to consider when buying a home. Absolutely a delight to work with; great energy and patience throughout the process. She also has been in touch with us post-sale, to assist with home repair vendors, contact info, etc. as well! Highly recommend Denisen!

Denison is an absolute JOY to work with! We bought our first house with Denison. We reached out to a couple different realtors but they didn’t respond. Or was just too busy to help us. We called Denison and she responded right away. She stayed in contact with us and answered any and all questions we had throughout the entire process. She showed us different houses and gave us her honest profesional opinions on all of them. When we chose the right house she helped us and made sure we understood everything we were doing. If we ever need any realty services ever again, we are 100% calling her! And I recommend that you do too!

I interviewed several agents before selecting Denisen for the sale of my home. I wanted someone who was motivated and knowledgeable of the local market. Denisen did not disappoint. Motivation was off the chart and her knowledge of the local market was quite impressive. Bonus, Denisen is genuinely a nice person and very easy to communicate with. As for the process, Denisen flawlessly managed the staging / prep work of my home and the ensuing small army of agents and their clients. Somehow in parallel to all of this, Denisen was very quick to answer my questions and proactive in dealing with the type of complications that come with selling a home. After everything was said and done, I am extremely pleased and would highly recommend Denisen for anyone interested in purchasing or selling a home. PS: My home sold in a little over a week for over asking. THANK YOU Denisen!

Denisen is amazing! I accepted a job in the east bay, so my wife and I needed to relocate from out of state during the pandemic. Denisen lined up a short-term rental for us, supervised the unloading of all of our furniture in the rental, which arrived ahead of us, and helped us purchase a permanent home in Walnut Creek! Denisen managed all of the associated professionals all the way along the line, and always knew when to intervene when things looked like they needed correction. We are so thankful to Denisen, and cannot recommend her enough!!!
