LuAnn and her team was a joy to work with. As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions and reservations with buying a home. Luckily, LuAnn was there to guide me through the process and patiently answered all of my questions. Despite the insanity of the housing market right now, she worked diligently to find homes that meet my criteria and helped me secure my first home purchase!
LuAnn is an exceptional and dedicated realtor. LuAnn and her team really took the stress out of it and covered all bases. I would highly recommend LuAnn for your home buying and home selling needs, she is the best and one of kind.
This might be a little late as we closed on our beautiful home over the holiday, but we cannot understate what an amazing relator LuAnn was for us. My husband and I, continue to sing her praises to anyone and everyone that is looking for a realtor in the Sacramento/Elk Grove area. She treated us with the utmost respect and helped us navigate our first home buying experience to perfection. LuAnn and her team are incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we stayed informed every step of the way. Her advice was very helpful, honest, and sound. She also made sure that she answered every single question we had and then some! We appreciate how hard LuAnn and her team worked for us, she truly cares about her job and the clients she works with. We would highly recommend her expertise to all new home buyers looking for a great experience.
LuAnn was our realtor for the purchase of our new build home. I found LuAnn through Yelp and let me just say she lived up to the 5 stars reviews and exceeded all my expectations. Through LuAnn’s connections and deep knowledge of the Elk Grove housing market, we secured a lot for a new house with a popular builder within a week of contacting her. LuAnn was also our realtor to sell our current home. LuAnn and her team helped us navigate the selling and buying process since our purchase was contingent on us being able to sell our current house within a certain timeline. LuAnn stood by our side and advocated for us with the builder during the entire purchasing process—making it all a breeze during the pandemic. My husband and I wholeheartedly believe that if it wasn’t for LuAnn and her connections, we would not have been able to secure the new house and sell our current house at the price that we did especially in such a short timeline. As someone who has worked with other realtors before finding LuAnn, it’s obvious LuAnn is a different caliber—she’s truly in a league of her own because she is that good. We recommend LuAnn with no hesitation for your real estate needs. She’s a true professional who is honest, genuine, quick to respond, and is a prowess at what she does. Plus, she's super friendly--what more can you ask for! You want LuAnn Shikasho on your side if you are selling or buying!!
LuAnn and her team are amazing and I am so glad to have purchased my first home with their help! All the positive testimonials about her personality and work were strongly reinforced through my experience working with her and her team. They really give you their 100% and it shows; just to highlight a few examples, they work late nights to do their due diligence before every meeting/ appointment (I had many last-minute requests!) and are very prompt to reply to all questions. Aside from their professionalism and knowledge, they were a fun group to work with and projected positive energy even during stressful steps in the process; they remained cool, calm, and collected and were highly transparent through the entirety of it. I am immensely grateful for the time, effort, and dedication from LuAnn and her team. They were above and beyond from the very first phone call I had with her to after closing to make sure everything was fine. Buying a house is such a cumbersome process (especially as first-time buyers) and we do not want to imagine how stressful it could have been, especially in the crazy 2020 housing market, if we did it without LuAnn and her outstanding team!! A big thank you again for everything!
She was very professional and she protected the buyer more I think should be. I was sickness and she conducted everything for both side the ending happy.
I had a condominium in Sacramento that I needed to sell. I was not living in Sacramento at the time and therefore needed a trustworthy real estate agent that could take care of everything without requiring me traveling there. I looked at the yelp and found LuAnn. After a short interview over the phone, I came to the conclusion that I am talking to the right person. Long story short, I met her just once to deliver the keys to her. After that, she took care of everything, from having the property cleaned, staging it, preparing flyers, having multiple open houses and eventually getting multiple offers. I sold my property above the asking price and the whole process took about just two months. I also need to mention that, I never had any problem communicating with LuAnn or her team. No matter how many question I had, she was always ready to help quickly and accurately. If you are looking for a real estate agent who can take care of everything for you professionally, I highly recommend her.
My wife and I were looking for home in Elk Grove for us and our son to be near family. Coming from the Bay Area, we knew that we needed a top-rated real estate agent in the greater Sacramento area to help us find our home in a very competitive seller’s market that emerged in the past year. After reading the reviews from various agents, we decided that LuAnn was the right agent who would help us find that home. LuAnn (and Rodrigo, another agent on her team) received glowing reviews from our research, and our experience with them definitely lived up to those reviews. In my initial conversation with LuAnn, it was very clear that she had extensive knowledge and experience about the market in the greater Sacramento area. She also spoke with me for nearly an hour on our initial conversation, answering different questions I had. For an agent as sought after as LuAnn is, that initial conversation impressed me and convinced me that LuAnn was the right agent for us. The following 2-3 months working with LuAnn and Rodrigo exceeded our expectations. My wife and I learned a lot about the market and which homes to target for our offers, and LuAnn and Rodrigo were with us every step of the way. Using one of LuAnn’s lender referrals was an excellent experience, and I believe made a significant difference in terms of offering to close in a short amount of time (21 days). LuAnn’s experience and advice, along with the established relationship with a prominent lender, and ability to communicate with the seller’s agent, made all of the difference for us in having our offer accepted on a very beautiful home. My instinct that LuAnn “would go to bat for us” (large factor in selecting her) proved to be correct. It was a great pleasure working with LuAnn and Rodrigo, and we found our dream home! Both are top-notch and will come through for anyone (especially new to the Sacramento area) seeking their services. I highly recommend LuAnn from eXp Realty!
LuAnn helped us to understand the market and the builder to look for in the area as we knew we wanted to build our next home. Once we confirmed our research with what LuAnn shared with her local knowledge of the area, my brother and I pulled the trigger same day. It was in and out with two brand new homes. Thinking back it was pretty impulsive but no regrets!! Thanks LuAnn for the valuable insights you provided along the way.
Luann was referred to us from a mutual friend. We received a full cash offer the first day following the open house. Unfortunately, the house we were looking to buy fell through and we declined the offer. As we were looking for something specific and not having any luck, we took the house off the market. We received another full offer after the listing was removed. Luann advised us about the current market and with the onset of COVID we accepted. Luann put her cape back on and clinched the deal! We ended up finding a house we love and Luann simultaneously handled the purchase as well!
Great experience, good guidance, step by step for first time homebuyer.
LuAnn was quick to get the process started and did what she could with our limited budget and our expectations for a home. We did the majority of the finding of properties, but LuAnn made the process so easy by immediately setting up house tours and simplified the process once we were ready to submit a bid. She provided great information so that we could make our decisions.
