My wife and I just completed the purchase of our first home together and Rica really made the experience easy and delightful. This was the second time my wife has worked with Rica, but was my first experience with her. It was immediately evident to me that Rica is a skilled realtor with a deep knowledge of the region. She has her finger on the pulse of the market and was able to share insights with us in preparing our offer. Unlike other realtors I have come across, it didn't feel like Rica was coin-operated and solely driven by the money she would make on the deal. She was truly invested in our success and in forging a strong, lasting relationship with us. She took the time to understand what was important to us and did an outstanding job of representing us. She would occasionally question or nudge us during our decision-making process, but it was always in the spirit of partnership. She was genuinely enthusiastic and excited for us when we closed the deal. She has shared this journey with us and continues to be a part of this even after the sale closed. Rica is extremely professional, a skilled negotiator, and is an incredibly positive personality that makes the process enjoyable. We would highly recommend working with Rica and will work with her again on any future real estate we look to purchase.

This review is long overdue but when selling and buying a home "things" get hectic! However, if we had been dealing with anyone besides Rica and team we are sure it would have been much more hectic. Rica helped us buy our very first home back in 2013 and she was our first go-to person when we decided to sell and relocate back to the coast. She knew what price to list our house and her follow through went above and beyond. She schooled some other agents in the process which really impressed us. She knows the law regarding real estate and if she has any doubt she will not second guess, she will find out. Meanwhile she was helping us purchase our forever home and held our hands through that process as well. She makes it clear that she is on the side of her clients and will not let anyone pull the wool over your eyes. It is so clear that she knows this business as well as loving what she does and loving her clients. How do you grade that kind of integrity especially when it is so rare? OH, and she has great contacts for any of your home improvements. Those people love and admire her as well. Even though our transaction is over she regularly checks in with us. It is so important that her clients are happy which again is rare. If you want a professional partner rather than just a "sales" person you will want to work with Rica.

I was floundering around trying to repair my house , after having been abandoned by contractors and get it ready to sell. I was also looking for another place to live, maintain my sanity and physical health, all at the same time. I had divided each project into smaller parts so that the completion of each part coordinated with the completion of the other and contributed positively to the overall goal. In the middle of this morass, I was introduced to Rica through a brochure that had been given to me while visiting a possible new residence. When I finally interviewed her, she did not appear to be offended by the seemingly irresponsible and scattered approach to my life. I saw her again and was upfront about all the difficulties she could expect to have to deal with should she agree to sell my house. She humbly accepted this task, Rica approached this task like the true professional she is. She found me a local insurance agent who helped me see that my house remained insured after my original coverage was cancelled. She subtly intervened when an ambiguous delay interfered with the coinciding of the sale of my house with my moving into a new assisted living facility. She followed this task through to the end so we saw reality eventually prevail. From her file of resources, she found me an electrician, a handyman, a carpet-layer and a cleaning crew. We were ready to move in the new residence when they finally decided to open their doors. Rica rejoiced with me and read the fine print in the real estate documents and explained them to me so I could understand what I was expected to sign. Rica extended herself beyond the role of realtor by gifting me with a magnifier so I could read what my declining vision prevented me from seeing. She directed her assistant to help me do my grocery shopping when my transportation arrangements were canceled. Our conversations were always authentic and permitted a stress-free interchange. I have finally moved into my new home. Rica has visited me twice and has sent me pictures that have let me follow her activities. Our conversations are still honest and direct but are no longer focussed on my real estate transaction. Rica has recognized that buying and selling a house is a journey that no one should make alone. I am grateful to have had Rica accompany me on this journey: she sensed that I needed her; helped me grieve for the loss of a house I had lived in for 37 years and helped me prepare for the next phase of my life by being my friend.
