Tricia was absolutely incredible throughout our entire home-buying experience! As first-time home buyers, we truly had no idea what we were doing and had a million questions. Tricia was always there to answer every single one, and she had a way of explaining things in a way that actually made sense to us and never made us feel silly for asking. She fought for us, advocated for us, and guided us every step of the way. I honestly didn’t want to make a decision without getting her input because I trusted her advice and knew she always had our best interests in mind. She was also so incredibly accommodating with our hectic schedules. No matter how many times we had to work around our schedules or change things around, she never once made it feel like an inconvenience. She was always flexible, understanding, and willing to work with us. Everyone told us that buying your first home would be scary and stressful, but honestly, it wasn’t—and I truly believe that’s because Tricia took care of everything and made sure we always knew what was going on. She celebrated every win with us, gave us so much insight and advice, and made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel exciting and manageable. We are so incredibly grateful that we had Tricia by our side and could not recommend her enough to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time home buyers!

We can’t recommend Tricia enough! This was our second time working with her, and once again she exceeded every expectation. She is phenomenal, incredibly persistent, and truly goes above and beyond for her clients. Her knowledge of the market and strategic approach gave us confidence throughout the entire process. She always had our best interests in mind and worked tirelessly to help us achieve our goals. We will absolutely continue recommending Tricia to all of our friends and family. If you’re looking for a realtor who is experienced, dedicated, and genuinely cares, Tricia is the one!

Super intelligent and insightful.

Finding the "right" real estate agent can feel overwhelming. There are SO many of them. Everyone seems to know one that is "nice." And while "nice" is a quality I hope to find in all, most people are nice. What I wanted when I went in search of someone to help me sell my home was someone with demonstrated sales experience with a large number of people across decades, preferably in my local market. I wanted someone who knew the market, knew the laws, and knew people and how to negotiate with them to get me the best possible outcome. I wanted someone to look out for me while at the same time doing it ethically. Like many of you, I was given names from friends and acquaintances. I researched them online--number of years in the profession, number of sales, the average house values most of the sales were, the markets where most sales took place, etc. After reviewing those, I targeted my search on agents in my local market using AI. I was given 25 pages of agents and their data. And yes, I did go through all 25 pages of agents, highlighting the ones that stood out based on the criteria already mentioned. Tricia landed at the top. I spent a long time reading client reviews of her work. Now on the other side, having sold my house with her help, I can enthusiastically concur with the praise I read in the reviews that led me to seek her expertise. She is the real deal. When you pick her, you can rest easy knowing that she is your advocate. She is out there working on your behalf to both get you the outcome that you want while at the same time steer you to avoid potentially troubling situations you want to avoid. At every step in the process, Tricia was present to help, even when that was sometimes just letting me vent about the emotional nature of selling the house. And yes, Tricia was nice too.

Tricia knew what we were looking for and assured us that with patience the right home would come available. She gave good advice on what neighborhoods had to offer and which didn’t fit our style. To our surprise it only took 3 weeks to find the perfect home for us. We not only felt like she was an outstanding agent, but we felt like we gained a friend. She was a great advocate for us, walked us through the process with professionalism and responded timely to our questions and concerns. We will highly recommend Tricia to anyone looking for an agent

Tricia has been great to work with both when we bought our house and sold it. If you need helping buying or selling property Tricia will be there every step of the way. I wish she could help us buy in other states.

Tricia did an excellent job with a complex listing! Selling our large farm was not an easy job. Listing it with Tricia and Southeby's was absolutely the best choice! She was professional in difficult circumstances. Patient with the long process for this particular property. And had excellent knowledge of the market and about how long it would take to sell it. She communicated often with all of the details and was exceptional with the contracts and negotiations! Having someone who has experience and knows what they are doing is invaluable! Just what you need in selling a property.

Tricia did an outstanding job representing our family in the sale of an estate property in Riverton. From our first conversation through closing, she was professional, responsive, and exceptionally knowledgeable about the local market. What impressed me most was her ability to navigate a transaction that involved far more than a typical home sale. The property was part of an estate, required coordination among multiple family members, involved lender communications, and presented several logistical challenges. Throughout the process, Tricia remained organized, and focused on solutions. She always seemed to know exactly what needed to happen next and communicated clearly every step of the way. Her market knowledge and pricing strategy proved to be spot-on. She provided realistic expectations, offered practical advice without pressure, and helped us make informed decisions based on facts rather than emotion. When questions arose, she responded promptly and professionally. Beyond her technical competence, Tricia was simply a pleasure to work with. She is approachable, straightforward, and refreshingly free of unnecessary sales tactics. We always felt that she was acting in our best interests and providing honest guidance. The sale ultimately exceeded our expectations, and a great deal of that success can be attributed to Tricia's experience, professionalism, and attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy real estate professional in the Riverton area. 5/5 stars. Highly recommended.

Tricia is truly the standout agent in Utah. She understands the market inside and out and takes the time to learn exactly what her clients need to find their perfect home. Her professionalism, thoughtful scheduling, and clear communication make the entire process feel effortless. She consistently goes above and beyond to advocate for her clients and ensure an exceptional experience from start to finish. If you want the best, look no further—Tricia is it.

We are so glad we had Tricia Vanderkooi as our agent to sell our home. Her team took wonderful pictures that represented our home well. Tricia advised on pricing, and we were able to make a quick sale so there was minimal overlap getting into our new home. All aspects that were under our/her control went smoothly. We would use Tricia again if selling in the future!

It was such an outstanding experience to work with Tricia and her team. She listened to our wants and needs and helped us find a home that surpassed what we were looking for. She is the only realtor our family will recommend to anyone needing to purchase a home. She made a very stressful process so much easier with her amazing communication and experience. She set expectations and walked us through the entire process with ease. We are so happy in our new home and Tricia was a crucial part of making that happen.

Tricia was very responsive and took the time to research homes for us. We were on a limited time schedule and she made sure we saw everything we wanted. From the first call to the latest call, she is always willing to help.
