Excellent communication

This is our 3rd time using Raquel as our realtor and once again she did an outstanding job! We bought once and sold twice through Raquel and would do it again! Her expertise in the markets geographic area was instrumental in our selling price. Raquel was straightforward with things that needed to be done to not only sell the home but pass the buyers inspection as well! She went above and beyond in all areas like finding and talking with a roofer since we are out of state. We couldn’t have done this 1000 miles away without Raquel!

Exceptional Realtor

So grateful for Raquel! Raquel was exceptional throughout our recent home selling process. We had only two weeks to close, and she kept us informed at every step. She was straightforward and honest about what needed to be done to ensure a smooth closing, and her guidance made everything feel manageable. Even with multiple clients, Raquel made us feel like we were her top priority. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and go to attitude turned what could have been a stressful experience into a seamless one. If we could give her more than 5 stars, we absolutely would. We highly recommend Raquel for anyone buying or selling a home. THANK YOU Raquel!

Exceptional!

I presented Raquel with a challenging situation—my home had been sitting on the market with no sale for several months—and she immediately jumped in and got to work. Under her guidance, the property gained over 100 additional views and generated approximately six offers. We ultimately accepted a strong, reasonable offer, and the home sold successfully. Thank you, Raquel, for stepping in, handling the challenge, and making the entire process a smooth transition. I look forward to working with you again on our next purchase. You rock!

Exceptional Realtor Who Turns Stress Into Success

If there were more than five stars, Raquel Zapata would absolutely deserve them. With nothing more than a 24-hour window to search and secure a home, she was nothing short of phenomenal. After showing us several properties in an area we initially thought we were interested in, but quickly realized wasn’t right, Raquel immediately pivoted. Within an hour (and after a quick lunch), she had already lined up a brand-new assortment of homes in the perfect location. What impressed us most was how she truly listened and understood what we needed. By the end of the day, Raquel not only found us our dream home just in time for my flight back, but she also went above and beyond by helping us identify an excellent school for our middle schooler. Raquel is exceptional at what she does. She is knowledgeable, resourceful, and incredibly dedicated to her clients. She turned what could have been a stressful, overwhelming process into a smooth and successful experience. We are beyond grateful for her expertise and highly recommend her to anyone in search of their next home. Thank you, Thank you, a million times Thank you! We can not wait to work with you again.

Extraordinary

There are no words to describe how amazing Raquel Zapata is she has always gone above and beyond my expectations. I am so grateful to have had her as not only as my familia but as a true friend and incredible realtor. There is no greater feeling than knowing that you have the best of the best working on the sale of your home. I have sold and bought two houses with Raquel and she makes it so seamless and she is an ambassador in closing. Thank you so very much Raquel for your all of your hard work and dedication

The ultimate guide to buying or selling your home!

I once again had the pleasure of working with Raquel to purchase a new investment property.From start to finish, it was an absolute pleasure! Per usual .From our initial conversations and throughout the whole process, Raquel was extremely professional. She was highly knowledgeable about the local market and made sure I always felt like a priority. At each step in the whole process, Raquel came through with her commitment to excellence. Negotiation skills were first-rate – she consistently found ways to get us the best deal possible. They also went out of their way to ensure every detail was taken care of – from arranging inspections to researching potential issues with this property. Throughout our journey, Raquel demonstrated immense patience and understanding of my situation. (With me being a busy wife, mom of 3 little boys ,and juggling my new business, things can get pretty hectic and overwhelming). Whether I needed additional time for research or require more information on this particular property- they took it all in stride. She went out of her way to provide me with extra resources and various options I could consider when deciding. I’m so glad I chose Raquel Zapata “1 Step Ahead Realty Group”, once again for my real estate process needs. Their knowledge and experience, combined with their patient approach, made this otherwise stressful event a smooth and successful process. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch real estate services!” Raquel Zapata ❤️

Professional!

We were fortunate enough to not only buy our first home with Raquel but to sell it with her as well. In both instances she was professional and communicative every step of the way. We had many questions both times and she was patient, knowledgeable, and kind every step of the way. Down to shipping us moving boxes to assist with the move and walking us step by step through closing. Let me not forget to mention how ferocious she was when we received “low ball” offers in a sellers market. When we are ready to buy our forever home we will absolutely 100% utilize Raquel again and continue recommending her to everyone we know buying or selling.

Super Attentive and Ready to Resolve any issue.

I was really nervous about buying a home, the way that the market was, a lot of people trying to take advantage etc. when i got in contact with raquel all doubt went away just from our first conversation. she is a person that is for you the whole time before, during and after the whole process. Very knowledgeable about anything that has to do with buying or selling a house plus more. Definitely a very nice and easy experience, would recommend to anyone.

Got the Job Done

She was very clear about what we needed to do to aid in the sale of our home. Because of her we were able to sell and close quickly for a great price!
