Laurie Rutledge did an excellent job, things went very smooth and she took care of every small detail. I couldn’t be more pleased with her performance as a realtor, and the house she got us is spectacular. I would recommended her anytime.
Laurie represented our interests both as buyers and then as sellers. She has a superb handle on the best prices, best value neighborhoods, and the timing of offers and counter offers. She is involved 24X7 always answers her phone or calls right back. She has great ideas on methods to reduce clutter, organize space, and generally make the process less stressful and efficient. We are pleased with the services Laurie provided, and happy we selected her.
Laurie and Derick both assisted in selling and buying our previous homes (and did an excellent job). The initial “sell” escrow fell out (but got back in quickly) and the “buy” escrow required renters to leave…
Laurie Rutledge has been a valuable, professional resource for us since moving to Ventura 12 years ago from out of state. She has a keen knowledge of the community, an excellent perspective on the nuances of each neighborhood, and guided us through a complicated purchase. During the ensuing years, Laurie always kept in touch, and then helped our daughter sell her starter home and purchase their larger family home. During the Thomas Fire aftermath, Laurie worked with interested parties to consummate that property purchase for redevelopment. In 2021, we decided to relocate to the East Coast and Laurie expertly and efficiently marketed our home with spectacular results. The print and digital exposure were first rate and our home sold in four days. Laurie’s professional relationship with the buyer’s broker resulted in a higher than asking sale price with no contingencies and a generous escrow. We were delighted and we would not hesitate to recommend Laurie Rutledge.
Laurie is very professional and knows what she is talking about. She provided top advice on the sale of our house. We would not hesitate to use her again.
I can’t speak highly enough of Laurie Rutledge as our realtor. She did a terrific job recently selling my late mother’s beautiful ocean view home in Ventura. Laurie has been a close family friend for over three decades. Her professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work ethics have always been appreciated and she has been one of the most popular and respected top selling Ventura realtors, forever. Laurie knows everyone, everything and gets things done the right way AND FAST ! Laurie goes above and beyond for her clients! Her responsiveness and communication not only helped with the logistics of the transaction, but also made us feel comfortable and secure. She took extra steps to be the most helpful agent ever. Laurie Rutledge is a class act all around.
Even in a robust market, without a knowledgeable realtor, you still may experience unexpected hitches in the road. Laurie and her team of professionals paved the way for a seamless sale. Laurie is a seasoned professional- readying the house for sale and bringing qualified buyers (with multiple offers) happened quickly- sale documents started flying in and before we knew it we were closing the sale. Of course, we already knew we would have a positive and successful experience with Laurie as our daughter is also a client “fan” of Laurie. We would love to engage Laurie’s services in the future and are happy to refer friends with confidence.
Where to start, Laurie experience in the industry has proven to make the biggest purchase of your life to be effortless. Her abilities to make you feel Comfortable through I very heavy process in making a deal come together. I have worked with her on a couple of properties and greatly appreciate her making deals happen.
Laurie and Derek did a great job helping us prepare our house for sale. They provided aesthetic suggestions as well as helping manage sub contractors to improve the house and make it more marketable.
Laurie Rutledge was our agent who negotiated and closed a very complicated short sale transaction involving both first and second mortgage lenders. The initial sale fell through due to lack of decision by the second mortgage lender; but Laurie then proceeded to closing with the backup lender. This process took the better part of nine months, but Laurie was never discouraged and always was positive and encouraging to us. I don't believe many real estate agents would have persisted with this transaction and been able to accomplish it as did Laurie Rutledge.
