Debbie checked all our boxes: communication, market knowledge, professionalism, and negotiating skills. She was well organized, she listened to us, communicated clearly and promptly; she was delightful to work with and had a great sense of humor. She was very hands-on and responsive to our communications. Debbie was great at helping us to prepare for selling our home, guiding us on how to stage, very patient when it took us a long time to be ready for showing. She has a great network of support people she referred us to. Our home was unique and she developed marketing strategies, with flexibility as market conditions evolved. Through open houses, local and regional advertising, and listing in Haven Magazine, she presented our magnificent home expertly. She followed up on interested buyers and provided excellent guidance on reacting to the uncertain market. Her knowledge of the market - which was constantly changing - was key to decisions made along the way. When we moved out of state she supported us, checking in with us and the house regularly. She went above and beyond what we might have otherwise expected of an agent. She advised us when she thought an offer was not a good deal for us, and we ended up with an excellent all-cash offer as well as a full backup offer. Even though the final price was not what we originally expected, Debbie fostered the best outcome possible given the economic conditions. We had an excellent, productive, friendly working relationship. We would recommend Debbie for any real estate transaction!

Cheryl has assisted me with 4 real estate transactions so working with her was like being with an old friend. Cheryl has her ear on the pulse of the county and knows every realtor in it, so she was able to get my house sold prior to going to MLS. She handled the bidding war beautifully. She knows everything necessary for contracts, pricing and titles etc, plus has so many referrals to the trades in the county for necessary repairs, inspections and upgrades. Cheryl always answered the phone or text for immediate answers to my many questions during this stressful process.
Debbie helped me sell a home on behalf of an incapacitated relative. I live out of state and she made what could have been a very difficult situation so much easier. She helped me get the house emptied, the inspections done and the necessary repairs completed and listened carefully to all of my concerns. She is a great communicator and her experience in the Nevada County real estate market really makes a difference. I highly recommend Debbie Dejesus if you are looking for a great real estate professional. She is absolutely fabulous!
We are grateful for Debbie’s guidance in selling the home where we raised our family. She made what could have been an emotional, stressful process feel smooth and worry-free. Her attention to detail and thoughtful approach made a difference. She kept us informed after every showing, and the extra touches and video she created showcased our home beautifully. When reviewing offers, Debbie clearly explained each one and helped us choose the best option. She found the right buyer and coordinated everything to ensure a seamless sale. We highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Working with Debbie was an absolute privilege from start to finish. Finding a real estate professional who perfectly balances master-level industry expertise with genuine warmth is rare, but Debbie does so effortlessly. She made what is typically a high-stress process feel incredibly smooth, manageable, and surprisingly fun. No detail was too small to escape her notice. She patiently broke down every complex step, and meticulously reviewed every contract line. Her sharp professionalism and deep knowledge of real estate and the local area she serves, gave me total confidence that I was in the best of hands. Beyond her impeccable work ethic, Debbie is simply a joy to be around and she is the kind of advocate you want to have at the negotiation table. If you are looking for an agent who is fiercely professional, exhaustively thorough, and treats you like family, look no further. I have worked with Debbie in both purchasing and selling and will, without hesitation work with her again.

We had an incredible experience working with the Rellstab team to sell our home in Grass Valley. From our very first meeting to the final closing, they were professional, highly responsive, and full of great market insights. They made a highly stressful process feel entirely seamless and straightforward. They were always available to answer our questions and address our concerns. I was impressed with how quickly we were able to close on the house and meet our moving date. If you need a reliable, dedicated real estate team who truly delivers, we highly recommend Aly and Cheryl Rellstab! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

I cannot thank Aly enough for her help in purchasing my first home. She helped us view numerous homes and wrote up our offer once we found the home we were looking for. We were very impressed with how she negotiate with the seller during our escrow and helped us to buy down our rate for 2 years. I would recommend Aly to anyone that is looking to buy or sell their home!
When planning a relocation, we researched buyers' agents in the Grass Valley/Nevada City, CA area. Debbie's profile immediately caught our attention based on her values, focus, and communication. We engaged Debbie to find our new home, and she was immediately proactive in helping us locate properties that met our needs. When a new listing matched our interests exactly, she brought it to our attention immediately, as it had fallen outside of our own online search criteria. We were able to view the property shortly thereafter and won the purchase agreement in a competitive, multi-offer situation. Along the way, she has been meticulous about details, follow-up, and communication, while helping us secure resources to complete our move. We highly recommend Debbie to both buyers and sellers who value knowledge, integrity and communication skills.
Debbie made sure that we got a house that was right for us in all aspects. She made the process smooth and easy, batting in our corner at every turn. I will recommend her to anyone looking for a realty agent.
Debbie Dejesus was incredible in helping us purchase our dream home in Grass Valley. From start to finish, she was transparent about the process, kept us consistently updated, and communicated clearly every step of the way. Buying a home can be stressful, but Debbie made the experience feel organized, informed, and manageable. One of Debbie’s greatest strengths is her deep knowledge of the Nevada County area. As a local native, she understands the unique considerations that come with buying or selling a home here, and that insight was incredibly valuable to us throughout the process. She helped us think through important details that only someone with real local experience would know to point out. Debbie also has an outstanding network of professionals she works with regularly, including experts in inspections and repairs. Everyone she connected us with was top-notch, reliable, and professional. It was clear that she has built strong relationships in the community and is highly respected by local companies, which made it much easier for us to get help, ask questions, and move things forward when needed. Debbie is very personable and has a great sense of humor which made the ups and downs of the process much easier to dealt with. When directness was required, her years of experience, combined with her real estate acumen, came through in spades. Most importantly, Debbie helped us successfully purchase a home that truly feels like our dream home. We are so grateful for her guidance, expertise, and steady support throughout the journey. I would highly recommend Debbie Dejesus to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
